She couldn't believe it. How could such a loving couple not like each other?
Looking at the two of them before, it didn't seem like they were lying to her.
"Grandma, I don't think it's a fight. They seem to have a good relationship, not like they've had a fight. Most importantly, Uncle's room is full of his own things, not Aunt's. Even if they had a fight, they wouldn't have moved Aunt's things out, would they?"
She hoped they had argued, but that wasn't the case.
After hearing Shang Liqian's words, Xie Wanjun's expression became even more serious, and her voice even trembled slightly. "In other words, the two of them have never slept together. That brat has been lying to me all along!" She had actually thought that brat had found a wife and was even fantasizing about holding her grandson soon.
Marriage? It's all just a fantasy.
No wonder she said that brat suddenly became enlightened and got married.
She was so excited at the time that she didn't notice anything amiss.
Xie Wanjun was so angry that her chest hurt. She clutched her chest and said, "I'm going over there right now. I'm going to beat that brat to death."
Xie Wanjun, leaning on her cane, prepared to walk towards the door.
Seeing Xie Wanjun about to leave, Shang Liqian quickly stopped her, "Grandma, it's already so late, you shouldn't go over there. You can go tomorrow. Besides, Uncle must have his reasons, so don't be so angry."
Seeing Xie Wanjun so angry, Shang Liqian knew that Shang Yanxing was definitely going to get a scolding tomorrow.
Shang Mengzhou's expression was also serious, but much calmer than Xie Wanjun's. "Yes, it's already so late. It's not too late to go tomorrow."
He never expected that Shang Yanxing would lie to them.
Xie Wanjun glanced at Shang Mengzhou and roared, "Look at what your good son is doing, exactly the same as you. He's such a grown man, yet he's still so rebellious. To avoid us arranging marriages for him, he actually found some random girl to fool us."
Xie Wanjun's anger instantly shifted to Shang Mengzhou.
They were all incredibly happy when Shang Yanxing brought Jiang Susu back.
They genuinely believed that the brat had finally found love and that he had finally found someone he liked, without suspecting that he was lying to them.
Moreover, they live in the old house, not in the Waterside Villa. If Shang Liqian hadn't gone there, they probably wouldn't even know about this now.
Shang Mengzhou said helplessly, "I'm nothing like that brat. I liked you back in high school, but it was always just a secret crush. Unlike that brat, who never gets a chance to bloom."
He's even starting to doubt whether Shang Yanxing is his biological son.
How come she doesn't resemble him at all? She's just like a Bodhisattva!
With so many women in the capital, is there not a single one you find attractive?
"Anyway, if the upper beam is crooked, the lower beam will be crooked too. That brat is just like you, stubborn as a mule."
Shang Yanxing and Shang Mengzhou are indeed somewhat similar; they are both stubborn. Shang Mengzhou liked her initially, but she didn't like him back and rejected him.
However, Shang Mengzhou did not give up his pursuit of Xie Wanjun and continued to secretly love her.
They didn't get together until they went to university.
Shang Yanxing was also very stubborn; once he said he wouldn't marry just any woman, he really didn't want to.
Now, because of this incident, they've even teamed up to deceive them.
Shang Mengzhou had no choice but to silently endure Xie Wanjun's complaints.
"Don't be angry, Madam. I'll definitely teach that brat a lesson tomorrow. I'll give him a good beating to vent your anger."
Xie Wanjun glared at Shang Yanxing. "Tomorrow when I get there, I'm going to question him properly and see what other excuses he's trying to come up with to lie to me."
Shang Mengzhou agreed, "Yes, we'll go to the Waterside Villa together tomorrow and definitely question him properly. Madam, don't be angry. It's not worth getting angry over something like this, really not worth it."
With Shang Mengzhou's comforting words, Xie Wanjun calmed down.
the next day.
After having breakfast, Xie Wanjun and Shang Mengzhou went to the Waterside Villa.
Just as Shang Yanxing and Jiang Susu finished breakfast, they saw Xie Wanjun and Shang Mengzhou arrive.
Shang Yanxing stood up, walked over to them, and said, "Mom and Dad, what brings you here today?"
Jiang Susu was standing next to Shang Yanxing, about to speak, when Xie Wanjun slapped Shang Yanxing across the face.
Jiang Susu was stunned for a moment and dared not say anything.
Shang Yanxing was a little dazed from being hit. After he came to his senses, he asked, "Mom, what happened that made you so angry?"
"How dare you talk about what you yourself did?"
Shang Yanxing didn't understand what Xie Wanjun meant. "Mom, what did I do to make you so angry?"
Xie Wanjun turned her head away, snorted coldly, and said, "You don't want to accept the marriage we're arranging for you, so you're having Su Su cooperate with you to deceive us?"
Shang Yanxing was stunned for a moment. It seemed that they had found out about this.
Jiang Susu stood next to Shang Yanxing, her hands clenched tightly, trying to explain, "Mom, Yanxing didn't lie to you. We married each other because we liked each other."
She didn't know why Xie Wanjun and Shang Mengzhou knew about this, but all she could do now was try her best to salvage the situation.
Shang Yanxing instinctively shielded Jiang Susu behind him. "Mom, it's okay if you don't believe Susu, but please don't take your anger out on her. If there's anything, just come at me."
Jiang Susu looked up at Shang Yanxing's huge figure; in crucial moments, he would always protect her.
Even when they were about to be discovered, Shang Yanxing would still protect her like a husband.
"I didn't blame Su Su for this in the first place. You must have misled her into joining you in deceiving us. Now tell me yourself, do you two truly love each other, or are you just pretending?"
Xie Wanjun knew Shang Yanxing very well; he wasn't good at lying.
Even when he would be punished, he would not lie.
Shang Yanxing frowned, looked at Xie Wanjun, and slowly uttered a sentence, "If I said that I really like Su Su, would you believe me?"
He's not good at lying, but this statement is true: he likes Jiang Susu, that's true.
"You like Su Su?" Xie Wanjun felt like she had heard a joke.
She didn't believe Shang Yanxing's words at all.
"If you like Su Su, would you two still sleep in separate rooms?"
