Chapter 19 You are not here anymore, so you can’t stop her from getting married
There was a glint of unknown meaning in the man's deep eyes, and his fingers slowly clenched into fists.
Under the light, Xu Jialan’s eyebrows were still cold, but her eyes were firm, as if telling Shen Xichuan that no external reasons could change her decision and persistence.
Shen Xichuan’s eyes fell on her, and his heart was burning.
"I'm giving you a chance," he said.
Xu Jialan raised the corner of his mouth slightly, "I know."
She never expected that she would be able to be with him one day.
Now that God has given her this opportunity, how could she regret it just because he can't accompany her?
…
At nine o'clock in the evening, the two returned to Nanhu.
“Are you going to work tomorrow?” Shen Xichuan pressed the light switch and asked.
Xu Jialan nodded and said, "I have work scheduled for tomorrow and cannot take leave."
Shen Xichuan took out the women’s slippers he had just bought from the supermarket and placed them at her feet.
"It's quite late now. Can you stay here for the night?"
Xu Jialan was stunned for a moment, then spoke subconsciously, "But... I didn't bring any change of clothes."
Seeing that she didn't refuse, Shen Xichuan curled the corners of his lips, "Tell me the size, and I'll have someone send you a change of clothes."
Xu Jialan was silent for a few seconds and said a few numbers.
Shen Xichuan paused and nodded, “Okay.”
He took out his cell phone and sent a message to Shen Yankai’s assistant.
The assistant happened to be in Shen Yankai's office when he received the message.
He was stunned for a moment.
Shen Yankai raised his eyes, "What's wrong?"
The assistant swallowed his throat and told Shen Yankai truthfully what Shen Xichuan had told him.
The man sitting in the office chair was silent for a moment, then pinched his brows. "I understand. Go prepare what he wants."
"Yes, President."
When the assistant was about to leave.
"etc."
Shen Yankai suddenly called out to him.
The assistant turned around in confusion.
…
At half past nine, there was a knock on the apartment door.
Shen Xichuan opened the door.
The assistant greeted him respectfully, "Second Young Master."
The man nodded. "Where's the stuff?"
The assistant handed over several shopping bags.
He looked as if he wanted to say something but was hesitant.
Shen Xichuan narrowed his eyes slightly, “Just tell me if you have anything to say.”
The assistant coughed lightly, "Second Young Master, there's something in the bag that the president prepared for you."
"If the Second Young Master has nothing else to do, I'll leave first."
Shen Xichuan glanced at him and hummed.
Seeing this, the assistant left quickly.
Looking at his leaving back, Shen Xichuan frowned.
What the hell is going on?
Seeing him standing motionless at the door, Xu Jialan asked in confusion, "What's wrong with you?"
Shen Xichuan came back to his senses and turned his head, “Nothing.”
He closed the door and raised the shopping bag in his hand.
"Your clothes are here, go wash up."
As he said that, he handed over the shopping bag.
"good."
Xu Jialan took the bag and glanced down.
At this glance, her eyes paused.
Didn’t they say that these were all spare clothes prepared for her?
How could there still be...
Her expression began to become complicated, and the tips of her ears felt slightly hot.
Shen Xichuan noticed her expression, paused, and suddenly remembered that the assistant had just told him that there was something Shen Yankai prepared for him in it.
What on earth did Shen Yankai prepare for him?
Shen Xichuan coughed lightly, "Well, I just forgot, in addition to the clothes for you, there are also my things in here."
Hearing this, Xu Jialan's voice trembled, "...Oh."
She lowered her head and handed over one of the bags.
Shen Xichuan just took it and had no time to see what was inside.
I saw Xu Jialan turn around and leave with the bags of clothes.
Then I heard the bathroom door open and close.
The man standing there was stunned for a few seconds.
He looked puzzled, then lowered his eyes to glance at the contents of the bag.
Half a second later, Shen Xichuan’s face immediately darkened.
He glanced at the closed bathroom door, his jaw slightly tense.
The man took out his cell phone, walked to the balcony and made a call.
The call was picked up quickly.
"Did you receive anything?"
When Shen Xichuan heard this, his eyebrows jumped, “Brother, I asked your assistant to bring me clothes, why did you send me a bunch of these things?”
Shen Yankai signed his name before speaking nonchalantly, "So are you planning to retire? If you do, you can return the things."
Shen Xichuan: “…”
Shen Yankai put down the pen in his hand and leaned back in his chair.
"Xiaochuan, if you want to get married, I won't stop you, but if you really want to live with your sister-in-law, you have to consider her."
Shen Xichuan didn’t speak.
Shen Yankai continued, "No one can predict what will happen in the next second. I naturally hope that you can retire safely, but if something happens to you, what will my sister-in-law do alone?"
He paused and added, "Since you are gone, you can't stop her from getting married, right?"
Shen Xichuan pinched his eyebrows, “Brother.”
The corners of Shen Yankai's mouth curled up, "I've given you the things, take a look at them yourself."
After that, without waiting for Shen Xichuan to say anything, he hung up the phone.
The assistant standing opposite was silent for a moment, "President, are you trying to find another way to force the Second Young Master to retire?"
Shen Yankai chuckled and put down his phone.
"From childhood to adulthood, I've never seen Xiaochuan care about anything. The only thing was that he chose to become a firefighter after taking the college entrance examination."
"But now, he told me that he fell in love with someone and married her."
Shen Yankai tapped his fingers on the table, "I never interfere with his choices. As long as he likes it, I will let him do it, and this time is no exception."
He just wanted Shen Xichuan to choose the one that was more important to him again among the choices he had made.
After hearing this, the assistant fell silent.
The president's move is really a ruthless one.
…
On the other side, South Lake.
Shen Xichuan stood in front of the French window, looking deeply at the night view outside the window.
What Shen Yankai said just now kept echoing in his brain.
He gently stroked the strap of the shopping bag with his fingertips.
After a while, I vaguely heard the sound of water in the bathroom seem to have stopped.
Shen Xichuan retracted his gaze and tilted his head slightly.
Then he walked into the study with the shopping bag and stuffed the things into the deep of the cabinet.
When the man walked out of the study, Xu Jialan just walked out of the bathroom.
Their eyes met unexpectedly.
Xu Jialan was stunned.
Shen Xichuan's eyes fell on her, and his Adam's apple rolled unconsciously.
Two seconds later, he looked away and asked, "Are you done washing?"
Xu Jialan nodded softly.
She licked her lips and added, "Um, I can't find the hair dryer."
Hearing this, Shen Xichuan said, “I rarely use it, so it’s not in the bathroom. Wait a minute, I’ll find it for you.”
"good."
