The living room of the main building is high and grand, with an open-style decoration and the entrance connected by a corridor.
Shi Xuan and Shi Yan passed by the small artificial waterside waterfall in the center of the corridor. The place where the waterfall fell with a rustling sound formed a shallow pool. Under the broad green leaves, occasionally a few brightly colored carps swam leisurely. They were a precious species of fish, and the shape of their gills and tails were like beautiful small fans.
Shi Xuan walked down the stairs.
He stepped into the living room first. Suddenly, he looked up as if he sensed something and saw something.
The man paused and stood there in a daze.
On the single sofa, a girl holding a white cat was looking at him. Different from the cold look she had shown not long ago when she ignored him and even ignored his peripheral vision, her beautiful clear almond-shaped eyes looked straight at him. In an instant, they became as soft as if an ice crystal had melted. Her gaze was focused on him alone.
Shi Xuan was in a trance.
How long has it been since he last enjoyed this kind of treatment from a young girl? Actually, it hasn't been that long, but it felt like a lifetime ago.
In the past, he only felt annoyed with her and felt that she was a burden.
But now...
The girl's gaze made the man's entire chest feel slightly hot.
Shi Xuan didn’t know what was wrong with him. Anyway, at this moment, strangely, he didn’t feel the boredom and irritability he had in the past.
However.
The burning sensation in my chest lasted for less than three seconds.
He saw the girl again smiling in his direction with her red lips curved, her almond-shaped eyes narrowed at the corners, and she even stood up and walked towards him.
Shi Xuan's mind went blank, and he suddenly felt a little uneasy. Looking at Sheng Yuan who was gradually approaching, he moved his lips, as if he wanted to say something, but the girl spoke before him.
She shouted excitedly and clearly: "Shi Yan."
“…”
The wind stopped, Shi Xuan stood there with his mouth half open, just watching the girl pass by him.
“…”
A sharp cold hammer suddenly smashed down, shattering the illusory filter and cruelly forcing people to wake up and face reality.
Then I realized that she was not looking at me, nor was she smiling at me.
Watched by Sheng Yuan.
From beginning to end, it was Shi Yan who was behind him.
—
On the long creamy white dining table.
The old man was still sitting in the main seat.
On the right side, in order, were Shi's father, Shi's mother, Shi Xuan, and Gu Yun, who had just returned to the main house in time for lunch, sitting next to Shi Xuan.
Father Shi frowned at Gu Yun's appearance, obviously showing extreme disapproval, but after all, it was dinner time and Old Man Shi was present, so he didn't say much. He thought about talking to Shi Xuan in private later.
It would be a lie for Gu Yun to say she wasn't excited at the family dinner, but at the same time, she was extremely reserved and cautious, so nervous that she even deliberately slowed down her breathing, for fear that her breathing was too loud and might make some noise or cause some mistake.
The old man asked Gu Yun to stay for dinner, but other than that, he didn't even look at Gu Yun, showing no sign of favor.
Gu Yun kept picking up the dish in front of her, but she didn't even dare to use her chopsticks for the other dishes.
Normally at this time, Shi Xuan, who was sitting next to her, should have noticed his girlfriend's embarrassing situation and carefully helped her out.
But for some reason, the man had a sullen expression since he sat down, as if he was immersed in his own emotional world. He didn't have much appetite and didn't eat much.
The servants looked at each other in surprise.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see it.
This meal was nothing short of torture for the young master's girlfriend.
They were slow to react. The old man's intention in asking her to sit at the table was, of course, to make her give up and understand the distance between family backgrounds. A slight difference could lead to a huge mistake.
But Gu Yun herself completely misunderstood. Instead, she was excited and thought that being able to have this meal was her first step into the Shi family.
The atmosphere at the table on the right seemed to be frozen, silent and depressed.
On the other hand, it is quite the opposite.
On the left side of the main seat, Shi Yan and Sheng Yuan sat side by side.
By then, the food in the bowl had piled up into a small mountain.
Seeing that the girl was about to scoop soup for him again, she was really excited about feeding him.
Shi Yan quickly grabbed Sheng Yuan's wrist.
But she turned around, blinked her beautiful almond eyes, and looked at him with a puzzled look——
The boy's low, magnetic voice was somewhat helpless: "A lot."
The bowl is almost full and he can’t finish it.
Affected by the depressing atmosphere on the right, the servants did not dare to look any further and shifted their gaze, finally to the left.
——Young Master and Miss Sheng are here.
The young master was seen staring at the 'small mountain' in front of him with his dark eyes. His clear profile showed a distressed expression, as if he was worried about how to destroy it.
In fact, there was no rule that the young master had to finish it all, but it was obvious that he did, because these were all picked for him by Miss Sheng.
The girl's eyes were sparkling, and she looked at the young master expectantly.
The young master——
I can't refuse it at all.
But, it seems more like I don’t want to refuse.
The servants were amazed at what they saw.
The aloof young master could actually show emotions other than being taciturn and gloomy.
Before they could finish their curiosity.
It was also seen that after the young master stopped Miss Sheng, he did not let go of her hand under the dining table.
Miss Sheng had just used her left hand to scoop soup for the young master. At this moment, she was obediently holding the wrist with the young master. She showed no discomfort or intention to struggle, and completely let the young master do whatever he wanted.
It was clear that Miss Sheng was the one who was caught, but why did it feel like she was indulging the young master?
Then, the servant discovered that the young master had quietly changed his eating hand to his left hand.
It is very smooth to use and does not affect eating at all.
It also doesn't affect his relationship with Miss Sheng.
Servants: “!!!”
They think this young master is kind of cute.
But, cute??? God, they never thought that one day they would be able to link the word cute with the cold and aloof young master.
What's going on.
The young master and Miss Sheng are so sweet!
The lady over there was already calling for her to serve her some soup, but she didn't want to go over there at all. She didn't want to leave. She wanted to stay here and watch the young master and Miss Sheng! The servant wanted to move at a snail's pace.
Is their internet speed too slow?
The young master and Miss Sheng have become so close.
Moreover, I feel like these two people are a bit of a knockout, what's going on——
The two of them sat side by side, and judging from their looks alone, they were a perfect match.
