Shang Yanxing hesitated for a moment, then nodded and agreed, "Okay, I'll eat with you, Madam."
He doesn't actually like durian, but his little girl does, so he's willing to try something new.
Seeing Shang Yanxing's hesitation, Jiang Susu couldn't help but ask, "What if you don't like it? If you don't like it, I don't have to eat it."
She couldn't possibly make Shang Yanxing eat things she didn't like just because of her, could she?
"It's not that I don't like it, it's just that I've never tried it before. But Madam likes it, so I'd really like to try it." Shang Yanxing wasn't lying, but there was an element of it being for this little woman.
"Then...then I'll really buy it?" Shen Shiyan never liked to eat it before, so she hadn't had it in a long time, and now she really wanted to eat it.
"Okay, let's buy a bigger one so we can eat together."
Finally, Shang Yanxing picked out a larger durian and put it in his shopping cart.
Shang Yanxing pushed the shopping cart, and the two walked out of the supermarket together.
Shang Yanxing and Jiang Susu returned to Shuixie Villa.
As soon as the two entered the living room, they saw Shang Liqian lying on the sofa watching TV.
Upon seeing Shang Yanxing and Jiang Susu return, Shang Liqian immediately stood up and walked over to them.
Shang Li walked up to Shang Yanxing with a light smile. Before she could speak, Shang Yanxing said, "Why are you here again?"
Shang Liqian's bright smile froze instantly. "Uncle, you actually dislike me? You've changed. You were never like this before."
Before Shang Yanxing got married, he would always invite her to visit the Waterside Villa.
But now, this man is actually looking down on her?
Seeing Shang Liqian's strong reaction, Jiang Susu explained on Shang Yanxing's behalf, "Qianqian, your uncle didn't mean that..."
She didn't know why Shang Yanxing would say such a thing.
Shang Liqian looked like she wouldn't listen to any explanations, "Auntie, don't try to defend him, Uncle just dislikes me!"
Besides, she saw the frown on his face just now, so even if I explained, she wouldn't believe me.
Shang Liqian snorted and walked angrily towards the sofa.
Seeing that Shang Liqian was angry, Jiang Susu whispered, "What's wrong with you just now? Look, Qianqian is angry now."
Shang Yanxing lowered his head and explained, "Qianqian is a very greedy girl. I'm afraid she'll fight with Madam for snacks later."
Jiang Susu looked stunned, somewhat unable to believe that Shang Yanxing had said those words.
Jiang Susu said softly, "I don't mind. I can't finish it all by myself, and I can always buy more. Go and comfort her, or you might upset her and make her leave."
Jiang Susu nudged Shang Yanxing, "Hurry up and go."
Left with no other choice, Shang Yanxing had to listen to Jiang Susu.
They walked together to Shang Liqian.
Before Shang Yanxing could speak, Shang Liqian covered her ears and said, "I don't want to hear your explanation. Uncle, you've changed. Getting married has changed everything. You don't even want your little niece anymore."
How could her uncle, who used to dote on her so much, have become like this?
Shang Yanxing narrowed his eyes and said calmly, "I didn't mean to explain to you. I just wanted to say that I didn't dislike you. I was just worried that you would fight with your aunt for snacks."
Upon hearing Shang Yanxing's words, Jiang Susu's face darkened.
"What are you saying?" She was telling this man to coax her properly, but he was only making things more and more confusing.
"Madam, I am telling the truth."
Shang Liqian crossed her arms and said angrily to Shang Yanxing, "Uncle, do you think I'm that kind of person? Why would I fight with Auntie for snacks? Auntie hasn't even said anything yet, and you're already complaining about me. Besides, you're so rich, what's wrong with me eating some of your snacks? You're such a cheapskate."
This man is so rich, yet he's so stingy.
I've never seen him so stingy before, why has he become so stingy now?
Jiang Susu walked up to Shang Liqian and explained, "Qianqian, don't be angry. Your uncle didn't mean it that way. It's just some snacks. We can buy more when we finish them."
Jiang Susu asked Xu Ze to bring over all the snacks he bought from the supermarket and put them on the table.
Jiang Susu pointed to the snacks and said, "Qianqian can eat whatever she wants. Your uncle won't say anything."
Jiang Susu kept explaining, but Shang Yanxing didn't say a word.
Looking at the table full of snacks, Shang Liqian said with some emotion, "Waaah... Auntie, you're still the best to me." Her uncle was a womanizer.
Jiang Susu hugged Shang Liqian and gently patted her back, comforting her, "Qianqian, be good, don't be sad."
"Auntie, you're so kind. I've liked you from the very beginning. I knew you were a wonderful girl."
Shang Liqian glanced at Shang Yanxing and continued, "But I don't think my uncle is good enough for you. You're so wonderful, how could you fall for an old man like him?"
No sooner had Shang Liqian finished speaking than a cold voice rang out from behind her, "Shang Liqian, are you asking for trouble again?" This brat, how dare she call him an old man?
He's only 25 years old, how can he be considered an old man?
Startled, Shang Liqian quickly hugged Jiang Susu, "Auntie, Uncle is going to hit me."
Jiang Susu defended Shang Liqian, saying, "Qianqian is still young, why are you arguing with a child?"
Shang Yanxing said with some helplessness, "Madam, just spoil her."
With Jiang Susu protecting Shang Liqian, Shang Yanxing naturally dared not punish her.
If this had happened in the past, Shang Yanxing would definitely have had to kneel in the ancestral hall.
Seeing that Shang Yanxing was helpless against her, Shang Liqian smiled happily and said, "Auntie, it's so good to have you. You have no idea how fierce my uncle used to be to me, and he often punished me." Because she thought Shang Yanxing was strict with her, she later followed Xie Wanjun and only came to Shuixie Villa occasionally.
After living there for a year, I never dared to stay at the Waterside Villa again.
Shang Yanxing explained, "If it weren't for your disobedience, would I have punished you?" Shang Liqian has always been very naughty, either skipping class to go out and play with her classmates or getting into fights with them, and Shang Yixiao and Sang Yuwan don't really care about her.
That's why Shang Yanxing has such strict requirements for Shang Liqian.
But Shang Liqian denied it, "No way, I'm obviously very well-behaved, okay?"
Jiang Susu felt somewhat helpless watching the two arguing.
How can these two be so childish? It's like two elementary school kids arguing.
"Okay, don't be angry anymore. Qianqian, take a look and see if there are any snacks you like. You can eat them."
Shang Liqian stopped arguing with Shang Yanxing. She rummaged through the snacks in the bag; there were potato chips, cookies, and candy, all of which she quite liked.
Until she saw the durian.
"Uncle, why did you buy durian? Don't you dislike durian?" Shang Liqian loved durian, but Shang Yanxing didn't.
Previously, when Shang Liqian ate at the Waterside Villa, she was scolded by Shang Yanxing.
She still remembers this incident.
