Shang Yanxing extended his hand in response, saying, "Hello, my Mrs. Shang."
Jiang Susu smiled politely.
Then, Shang Yanxing picked up the bowl of porridge and said, "Eat something. I'll take you back later."
Although they have already discussed getting married, they are not married yet, so it is still somewhat inappropriate for a single man and woman to be alone together.
Jiang Susu felt a little embarrassed. She reached out to pick up the bowl of porridge, saying, "I can do it myself."
But Shang Yanxing refused, saying, "You are now my Mrs. Shang, and as your husband, I have an obligation to take care of you."
Jiang Susu's hand froze in mid-air for a moment. She looked at Shang Yanxing and remained silent, pursing her lips.
Shang Yanxing raised an eyebrow slightly, blew on the porridge to cool it down, and fed it to Jiang Susu, saying, "Good girl, drink your porridge."
Jiang Susu did not refuse again, but obediently opened her mouth and accepted Shang Yanxing's feeding.
After finishing his porridge, Shang Yanxing put down his bowl and suddenly reached out, but Jiang Susu instinctively dodged away.
Shang Yanxing explained, "You just got caught in the rain, I just wanted to check if you had a fever."
Hearing Shang Yanxing's words, Jiang Susu didn't dodge again. Instead, she sat closer, took Shang Yanxing's hand, placed it on her forehead, and asked, "Okay, then feel it, do you have a fever?"
Shang Yanxing stared at Jiang Susu, his Adam's apple bobbing. He subconsciously swallowed, feeling his heart suddenly race.
Seeing Shang Yanxing staring blankly, Jiang Susu tilted her head and asked, "What's wrong? Are you really sick?"
Upon hearing Jiang Susu's words, Shang Yanxing finally reacted, withdrew his hand, and looked away nervously. "No...no, I don't have a fever."
Shang Yanxing felt as if his heart was about to jump out of his chest, and his ears were turning red, but Jiang Susu didn't notice.
"I'll head back in a bit, otherwise my parents will worry."
Shang Yanxing nodded somewhat blankly and said, "Okay, I'll take you back in a bit."
As evening approached and the rain stopped, Shang Yanxing prepared to take Jiang Susu home.
Inside the car.
The two sat in the back seat. The car was unusually quiet, so quiet that even the sound of breathing could be heard clearly.
"I'll pick you up tomorrow, and we'll go get our marriage certificate." The wedding can wait a little longer, but we need to get the marriage certificate first.
"So eager?" You agreed today, and you want to get the marriage certificate tomorrow? It feels like Shang Yanxing is afraid she'll change her mind.
“My grandpa is urging me to get our marriage certificate soon, so I want to do it as soon as possible. But if you feel it's not appropriate, we can postpone it a little. I'll explain to my grandpa.” After all, getting a marriage certificate is a matter for both of them, so he respected Jiang Susu's decision.
"No, it's not that I think it's inappropriate, it's just that it feels a bit sudden. But, this matter can still be done according to your wishes, let's do it tomorrow then." Anyway, there's no point in dragging it out, so it's better to get the certificate sooner rather than later.
Seeing that Jiang Susu agreed, Shang Yanxing nodded slightly in response, "Okay, then this matter is settled."
A dozen minutes later, they arrived at the Jiang family villa.
Shang Yanxing got out of the car and opened the door for Jiang Susu.
Before leaving, he also said, "Go back early. You've been away for so long, don't let your parents worry."
Jiang Susu was about to leave when she stopped, turned around and looked at Shang Yanxing, and asked, "Aren't you going in for a while? We're getting our marriage certificate tomorrow, and today is a good opportunity to meet my parents."
Although Shang Yanxing said it was an arranged marriage, she still had to give her parents an explanation.
Shang Yanxing thought for a moment, but still hesitated, "Wouldn't this be too abrupt?"
It just doesn't feel quite right.
After all, they had only met today, and he didn't know how to explain to her parents that they were getting their marriage certificate tomorrow.
"What's inappropriate about it? We're getting married, and we should meet each other's parents before the wedding, right?"
Under Jiang Susu's persuasion, Shang Yanxing finally agreed, "Alright, let's go see your uncle and aunt then." He had to face them sooner or later anyway.
Then, Shang Yanxing followed Jiang Susu into the villa.
Before she even entered the living room, she could hear people talking inside; they must have had guests.
As soon as they entered the living room, Jiang Susu saw Shen Shiyan.
Jiang Susu stared at Shen Shiyan for several seconds before she came back to her senses and said to Jiang Xubai and Song Yinchen, "Mom and Dad, I'm back."
When Song Yinchen saw Jiang Susu, she hurriedly asked, "Where have you been? We called you but you didn't answer. Your father and I were so worried."
Then, Song Yinchen noticed Shang Yanxing and asked, "And who is this?"
Jiang Susu pulled Shang Yanxing to Song Yinchen and said, "Mom and Dad, let me introduce you. This is Shang Yanxing, the head of the Shang Group. Also, he is my future husband, your future son-in-law."
Song Yinchen and Jiang Xubai could hardly believe their ears. "Susu, are you kidding us? You're not just teasing us, are you?"
Song Yinchen and Jiang Xubai both knew that Jiang Susu had liked Shen Shiyan since she was a child, and that Shen Shiyan was the person she always wanted to marry.
When the two of them urged her to get married, Jiang Susu said she wanted to wait because she wanted to wait for Shen Shiyan to confess his feelings to her.
However, Song Yinchen could tell that Shen Shiyan only treated her as a younger sister and had no romantic feelings for her, but Jiang Susu did not believe it.
Seeing her daughter like this, Song Yinchen didn't know how to comfort her, nor could she bear to see her disappointed, so she just let her have her way.
The fact that he suddenly brought back a man, and who was in charge of the Shang Group, surprised them both, and they even found it hard to believe.
"Mom, I'm not joking with you. I'm telling the truth. Yanxing and I are getting our marriage certificate tomorrow."
As she spoke, Jiang Susu glanced back at Shang Yanxing; the two looked very much like a married couple.
After hearing Jiang Susu's explanation, Song Yinchen believed her and said, "Okay, as long as you like each other, I will agree to this marriage."
She didn't have many requirements for her daughter's marriage; she just wanted her to marry someone she liked.
Now that she is no longer fixated on being with Shen Shiyan, it is something that is truly gratifying.
They didn't want their daughter to be hung up on one man and end up not getting the love she wanted.
Shen Shiyan walked up to Jiang Susu and questioned, "So you broke your promise and didn't come to the club, so you stayed with this man?"
Who I'm with is none of your business.
Before Shen Shiyan could speak, Shang Yanxing pulled Jiang Susu aside and stood in front of her, saying, "Mr. Shen, Susu is now my fiancée. Our relationship has nothing to do with you, and you have no right to question her like this."
