Upon hearing Shang Yanxing's words, Shang Liqian's smile immediately vanished. "Uncle, why are you being so fierce? I'm just stating the facts. Can't I even tell the truth?"
She's praising him, but she won't even let him praise her?
Shang Yanxing stared at Shang Liqian, his eyes warning her.
"I've been eating your dog food since the meal started. I just praised you a couple of times, can't I even praise you?" She didn't say anything bad about him in front of her aunt, so why is she getting so worked up?
Just as Shang Yanxing was about to say something, Jiang Susu stopped him, "Qianqian is still young. How old are you? Why are you arguing with a child like that?"
After saying that, Jiang Susu served Shang Yanxing a bowl of pork rib soup, "Don't be angry anymore, drink some soup to calm down."
The two uncles and nephews could even start arguing while eating a meal, leaving Jiang Susu feeling helpless.
Seeing Jiang Susu defend her, Shang Liqian gave Jiang Susu a sweet smile, "Thank you, Auntie, you're so kind. My uncle is so lucky to have married you."
Marrying such a wonderful wife is something to be grateful for.
She should stick with her aunt from now on, so her uncle won't dare to discipline her anymore.
Jiang Susu spoke up for Shang Liqian, so Shang Yanxing couldn't say anything more.
During the meal, Shang Liqian was fed a lot of dog food (a Chinese slang term for witnessing public displays of affection), but seeing how loving the two of them were, she was happy to watch it.
After dinner, Shang Liqian went back to her room early.
After all, her uncle and aunt had important things to do, and she couldn't let them down, so she went back to her room alone early on.
Shang Yanxing was still looking at the computer in the living room when Jiang Susu walked over and stood in front of him.
Noticing her approach, Shang Yanxing shifted his gaze from the computer screen to Jiang Susu.
Shang Yanxing looked at Jiang Susu with a deep gaze and said calmly, "What's wrong?"
Jiang Susu seemed a little nervous. She clenched her hands tightly and said, "I didn't mean to talk about you during dinner tonight. I was just afraid that you and Qianqian would quarrel."
As the aunt-in-law, it would be really unreasonable for her to just watch Shang Liqian get scolded without doing anything.
Shang Yanxing frowned slightly, looked up at Jiang Susu, and asked, "You came here to talk to me about this?"
He didn't think there was anything wrong with what she did, and he was happy that Jiang Susu could keep him in check.
But to his surprise, she came over and apologized to him.
Shang Yanxing didn't understand why Jiang Susu was being so cautious.
She is the daughter of Jiang Xubai and Song Yinchen, the eldest daughter of the Jiang family. She should be able to look down on everyone with great nobility, so why does she appear so humble in front of him?
Seeing Jiang Susu like this, Shang Yanxing felt very uncomfortable.
Jiang Susu nodded obediently, "I was afraid you'd be angry, so I told you about this."
Shang Yanxing was the head of the business empire; he had never suffered such humiliation. Besides, she was only acting, so she felt it was better to make things clear.
Shang Yanxing's eyes dimmed considerably. "Why should I be angry? I'm overjoyed that my wife is willing to take care of me. Why should I be angry?"
Jiang Susu was stunned for a moment; she didn't quite understand what Shang Yanxing meant.
"What I mean is, it's my wife's right to manage me, and I don't mean to blame her. We're husband and wife now, so isn't it only right that she manages me?"
Jiang Susu thought about it and it seemed to make sense, since Shang Yanxing didn't want to expose their relationship in front of Shang Liqian.
That seems plausible.
Shang Yanxing emphasized again, "I am very happy that Madam can keep an eye on me from now on."
Jiang Susu nodded obediently and replied, "Okay, I understand."
As long as Shang Yanxing doesn't get angry, that's fine.
"I still have some work to finish here. Madam, please go back to your room first. I will come up when I'm done."
"Okay, then you go ahead and get busy." Afterwards, Jiang Susu returned to Shang Yanxing's room.
After Jiang Susu returned to her room and took a shower, Shang Yanxing came upstairs.
Their eyes met, and Jiang Susu felt a little awkward. "Why did you come up so quickly today?"
Shang Yanxing is usually busy until quite late, but he came up here at only eight o'clock.
"I didn't have much work today, so I finished a little earlier."
Jiang Susu nodded, "Oh, then... then go take a shower, I just finished."
"Hmm." Shang Yanxing turned around and went into the bathroom.
After drying her hair, Jiang Susu went to bed to prepare for sleep.
The thought of sleeping in the same bed with Shang Yanxing tonight made her too nervous to sleep.
She had originally planned to fall asleep before Shang Yanxing came out so that it wouldn't be awkward, but when Shang Yanxing came out, she still wasn't asleep.
Shang Yanxing came out of the bathroom wearing loose-fitting pajamas, which occasionally revealed some of his taut lines.
Jiang Susu subconsciously swallowed.
Shang Yanxing seemed to notice that Jiang Susu was looking at him. He looked at Jiang Susu, and their eyes met.
Feeling guilty, Jiang Susu immediately looked away, so nervous that she clutched the blanket tightly.
Shang Yanxing curled his lips into a smile, his tone teasing and enigmatic, "Why is Madam shy? If you want to look, you can look openly. You are my wife now, and you have the right to look."
Jiang Susu bit her lip, a blush rising on her fair face. "Who...who looked at you? I didn't."
She didn't do it on purpose; it was clearly this man who wasn't dressed properly.
Jiang Susu suspected that Shang Yanxing did it on purpose, but she had no evidence. Besides, given Shang Yanxing's character and conduct, he shouldn't have such malicious intentions, right?
Shang Yanxing smiled and stopped teasing Jiang Susu. After drying his hair, he also prepared to go to sleep.
He lifted the covers, looked at the petite woman lying on the bed, and said, "Tonight, my wife will have to sleep in the same bed with me."
Jiang Susu clutched the blanket, poked her little head out and looked at Shang Yanxing, "Qianqian should be asleep by now, I want to go back to my room to sleep."
She didn't know if it was because she was unfamiliar with her bed or because she was nervous and a little excited, making it difficult for her to fall asleep.
If this continues, neither of them will be able to sleep well.
Shang Yanxing seemed to notice Jiang Susu's nervousness and asked, "Madam, are you... nervous?"
Jiang Susu nodded, "A little, I'm so nervous I can't sleep."
As soon as Jiang Susu finished speaking, Shang Yanxing picked up a pillow and walked towards the sofa.
"Then I'll sleep on the sofa, and you can sleep in the bed alone, so you won't be nervous."
Jiang Susu tried to stop Shang Yanxing, but he had already reached the sofa.
Jiang Susu looked at Shang Yanxing next to the sofa and said, "Isn't this a bit inappropriate? After all, it's your room. How can I let you sleep on the sofa alone?"
"It's alright, I'm thick-skinned and it's fine for me. But it's different for you, Madam. You might get sick if you sleep on the sofa, so you can sleep on the bed."
