Chapter 176 When did she ask him to coax her to sleep?
As soon as these words came out, Liu Shiyi's face became very ugly.
Including the female classmates who had previously had feelings for Shen Xichuan, all of them had complicated expressions.
Who would have thought that Shen Xichuan would say these words to fight back?
The squad leader standing by was stunned.
"Could it be that you were already thinking about Xu Jialan at that time?"
Shen Xichuan turned his head nonchalantly, clenched his fist, and tapped the table lightly, "What's your name?"
The squad leader quickly corrected her, "Sister-in-law, it's sister-in-law, I said it wrong just now."
Xu Jialan: “…”
She licked her lips and looked at him slightly sideways.
So, when he was in high school...
Shen Xichuan held her hand tightly, his Adam’s apple moved slightly, and he whispered, “Well, really.”
Xu Jialan curled his fingertips slightly.
The roots of my ears feel a little hot.
She withdrew her gaze and lowered her head to continue eating dessert.
A doting smile flashed across Shen Xichuan’s eyes.
Some people are very curious.
They were all boys who used to play basketball with Shen Xichuan.
"So, Brother Chuan later realized his feelings and went after my sister-in-law?"
"But would Brother Chuan chase someone? Isn't he always being chased by others?"
The person who said this was elbowed by the person next to him, who whispered a warning, "What nonsense are you talking about?"
The man quickly apologized, "No, sister-in-law, I was wrong. Brother Chuan won't admit it later, but he will definitely risk everything to pursue the person he likes."
Upon hearing this, Xu Jialan raised his head, glanced at the man next to him, and raised his eyebrows slightly.
"He really isn't very good at chasing people."
Several people: “???”
Shen Xichuan paused and looked at her.
The man was curious, "So sister-in-law, how did Brother Chuan pursue you?"
"Yeah, yeah, we're all quite curious."
Shen Xichuan narrowed his eyes slightly and glanced at the boys next to him.
Xu Jialan pursed his lips and chuckled, "He...didn't chase after her."
"No pursuit?"
Everyone was shocked and looked at each other.
"Then how did you promise him?"
Xu Jialan took a bite of the tiramisu, which was sweet with a slight hint of greasiness, and the corners of his mouth raised.
"The first words he said made me consider whether I should marry him."
Everyone was shocked again!
"Fuck! So, Chuan Ge's way of pursuing someone is to just go up to them and ask if they can marry him?"
"Hahahaha, I have to say, this is really Chuan Ge."
"I just didn't expect that my sister-in-law would agree so hastily."
Xu Jialan nodded in agreement, "I think it's quite hasty too."
She approached the man, her lips curled up beautifully, "How about you think about it and propose again?"
Shen Xichuan lowered his eyes to look at the mischievous smile on her face, and the tail of his eyebrows raised slightly.
He chuckled and squeezed her hand, "Okay, I think it's too hasty too."
Hearing this, Xu Jialan was stunned.
She looked at Shen Xichuan in astonishment.
She just said that as a joke.
I didn't expect that he would actually agree.
Shen Xichuan stroked the ring finger of her left hand and whispered, “The ring is not good enough.”
Xu Jialan looked at him in a daze.
Didn't he see that she was just joking?
Shen Xichuan smiled and said nothing.
Of course he saw it.
Several boys nearby came to their senses.
He quickly agreed with a few words and changed the subject.
Are you kidding? How dare they continue asking?
Shen Xichuan chatted with everyone indifferently.
His right hand always held Xu Jialan's hand tightly.
The group of female classmates sitting on the other side all looked unhappy after hearing what was said just now.
After all, in high school, the person they looked down upon the most was Xu Jialan.
He rarely even speaks a word.
Besides having a charming face, she has also been ranked second in the grade for thousands of years.
It's nothing special.
They just don’t understand why Shen Xichuan likes her?
“Isn’t Shen Xichuan the second young master of the Shen family? I remember that after the previous hot search, the Shen family did not reveal the identity of the second wife of the Shen family.”
"Isn't this easy to guess? It must be because Xu Jialan's identity is not open to the public. Even if Shen Xichuan likes her, what about the Shen family? How could the Shen family accept a woman who killed her parents?"
"That's right. I think Shen Xichuan would be obsessed with her. It must be that this woman Xu Jialan used some shady means to seduce Shen Xichuan."
"I think so too. With her? Can she be liked by Shen Xichuan? Ha, then we can both sit in the position of the second wife of the Shen family."
The woman sitting in the corner with her face wrapped in a scarf listened quietly to the discussion around her.
Her grip on the wine glass slowly tightened.
She had felt the same way before.
But the facts told her that Shen Xichuan really put Xu Jialan at the top of his heart.
He didn't reveal her identity not because she was afraid of being in the spotlight, but because he didn't want her to be disturbed.
All the evidence they thought that Xu Jialan was unworthy was just Shen Xichuan's careful and cherishing love for Xu Jialan.
The woman chuckled silently and drank the wine in the glass clean.
Not far away.
The dinner is almost coming to an end.
Someone suggested changing the venue and going to KTV to sing.
Shen Xichuan finished drinking the water in the cup, “Let’s not go. She has been busy with work recently and hasn’t slept well. I have to find a way to coax her to sleep when I go back.”
The faint smile on Xu Jialan's face suddenly froze after hearing these words.
She silently turned her head and looked at Shen Xichuan.
Coax her...to sleep?
When did she ask him to coax her to sleep?
Shen Xichuan smiled without saying a word, and put his arm around her waist.
The temperature under the palm seemed to burn the skin red.
Xu Jialan kept smiling.
Yes, she needs someone to coax her.
Seeing this, the squad leader and others didn't keep anyone anymore.
"Okay, then you guys should go back early, and we'll get together again next time when we have time."
Shen Xichuan nodded, "Definitely."
He picked up Xu Jialan's coat, shook it, and put it on her.
He was about to take her hand and leave.
Suddenly someone called out to them.
"etc."
The two stopped.
Everyone fell silent and looked towards the source of the sound.
Ye Shuman took off her scarf, revealing her extremely haggard face.
Shen Xichuan frowned and subconsciously pulled Xu Jialan behind him.
Xu Jialan glanced at him and said nothing.
Ye Shuman looked at the two of them with pleading eyes.
"Can I... talk to you guys alone?"
