So why does durian exist?
Jiang Susu frowned as she looked at Shang Yanxing and said, "You don't like it? I thought you really wanted to try it with me."
Shang Yanxing explained gently, "I just thought the taste was a bit strange before, so I didn't have the courage to try it, but I didn't dislike it. I saw that Madam likes it, so I think it must be delicious. How can you not try something delicious?"
Although he also thought the taste was indeed very strange.
Then, Shang Yanxing said calmly to Shang Liqian, "You said it yourself, it was before. Back then, I just didn't really like the taste. But it's different now. Now I want to try something new."
He didn't like the taste before, but the little girl did, so he wanted to try it.
"Then why did you refuse to eat it no matter what when I asked you to try it before? And when I did eat it, you scolded me." This man is so hypocritical.
"You always like to eat weird and strange things, how could I dare to eat with you?"
Shang Liqian rolled her eyes, somewhat speechless. "Uncle, if you value lust over loyalty, just say so. Why do you have to come up with such a high-sounding reason?"
I don't know who they're trying to fool.
She's not a three-year-old child, do you think she's that easy to fool?
Shang Liqian didn't want to argue with Shang Yanxing anymore, so she said to Jiang Susu, "Auntie, do you also like durian? I especially like it too. And durian egg tarts are especially delicious. I'll bring some back for you to try next time."
Jiang Susu smiled and nodded, "Okay, thank you, Qianqian."
"Auntie, you don't need to be so polite with me. We're family, after all."
The two of them ate snacks together, completely ignoring Shang Yanxing.
After finishing her potato chips, Shang Liqian really wanted to eat durian. "Auntie, are you eating durian now?"
The durian smelled so strong that it made her mouth water.
"Sure, you can open it. I'd like to eat there too."
Hearing Jiang Susu's words, Shang Liqian happily said, "Okay, let's open the durian then."
"Um."
Shang Liqian brought over a plate and, before opening the durian, asked Shang Yanxing, "Uncle, are you sure you can stand the smell? Don't scold me later."
She didn't want to get caught in the crossfire, so she asked beforehand.
"No, this is what your aunt loves to eat, of course I can handle it..."
Shang Liqian interrupted Shang Yanxing, "Never mind, forget I asked." This man is just a hopeless romantic.
Shang Liqian continued opening durians.
It's a five-sided durian, each section is plump, and the aroma of durian permeates the entire living room.
Shang Liqian and Jiang Susu each took a piece, put it in a glass bowl, and then ate it with a spoon.
Jiang Susu looked at Shang Yanxing and asked, "Would you like to try some?"
Shang Yanxing nodded gently, "Yes, I'd like to try it."
Upon hearing Shang Yanxing's words, Jiang Susu handed the durian in her hand to Shang Yanxing.
He took a bite, and found it to be soft, chewy, and even tastier than he had imagined.
Although it doesn't smell good, it tastes pretty good.
Jiang Susu asked impatiently, "How does it taste? Is it delicious?"
Shang Yanxing nodded. "Mmm, it's delicious."
Shang Liqian couldn't stand the ambiguous and flirtatious look in the eyes of the two people, so she ate the durian in her bowl in big bites.
These two, why are they always showing off their love? It seems she should come to Waterside Villa less often in the future.
Otherwise, wouldn't we have to eat dog food every day?
Shang Liqian didn't stay at the Waterside Villa for long; she went back after dinner.
That evening, as the two were preparing to go to sleep, Shang Yanxing said, "Qianqian ate quite a few of the snacks Madam bought today. Next time, I'll take Madam to buy some more."
"Okay. But weren't you a little stingy with Qianqian today? I don't mind, although I also love those snacks, but Qianqian is your little niece after all, and I like her quite a bit. Don't do that next time, otherwise she'll really think that you, her uncle, are more interested in women than in people."
Although the two of them had no relationship, Shang Yanxing made Shang Liqian mistakenly believe that things were different after he got married, and that he no longer cared about her, his little niece.
"Madam, please don't speak up for that little brat. Madam, have you forgotten? It was that little brat who reported us last time. If she hadn't reported us, our affair wouldn't have been discovered. So shouldn't we make a good impression on her?" This would prevent that little brat from spouting nonsense.
"But... she didn't do it on purpose." She didn't hold it against Shang Liqian.
Shang Yanxing smiled and said patiently, "Madam, please don't protect her. If you protect her like this, she'll only get more arrogant. Besides, you are my wife, so it's only right that I protect you. Otherwise, what if that little brat complains about her again?"
Although he was partly to blame for being reported by Shang Liqian last time, Shang Liqian was still partly responsible for him being beaten.
Jiang Susu pursed her lips. "Alright, I'll do as you say."
Shang Yanxing had his reasons for doing this, so she decided to ignore it.
After they finished tidying up, the two of them prepared to go to sleep.
Jiang Susu and Shang Yanxing were lying on the same bed. Jiang Susu turned her head to look at Shang Yanxing, and then quickly turned her head back.
Seeing Jiang Susu's reaction, Shang Yanxing asked, "Is Madam shy?"
He's been behaving himself these past few days; at least, he hasn't deliberately taken advantage of the young girl.
If you keep taking advantage of others, you're more likely to attract his young girl.
"No, I'm already used to it, what's there to be shy about? I... I've been sleeping quite well these past few days, I haven't taken advantage of you, have I?"
We can't do things like before, where you snuggle into someone's arms to sleep.
Shang Yanxing paused for a moment, then deliberately drew out his words, "Honest? Madam has never been a very well-behaved sleeper."
Upon hearing Shang Yanxing's words, Jiang Susu turned her head and asked nervously, "Have I...have I been misbehaving these past few days?"
But she didn't feel it.
Jiang Susu opened her eyes wide and asked cautiously, "Did I...did I take advantage of you again? I'm...I'm sorry, I won't say it was intentional."
But she herself didn't feel anything at all.
"Is all you have to say, Madam? Shouldn't you take responsibility for what you did to me?"
You think you can just send him away with an apology?
Jiang Susu looked at Shang Yanxing nervously, like a pitiful little white rabbit, "Then...then how do you want me to take responsibility for you?"
She...she didn't do it on purpose.
Seeing Jiang Susu's nervous and uneasy appearance, Shang Yanxing smiled and said, "Madam, think it over yourself. Tell me when you've made up your mind. Now, you should go to sleep."
