Jiang Susu was startled, thinking that the two of them were really going to sleep in the same room. They were just a fake couple, and there was no need to make such a big sacrifice for acting.
Everyone in the capital knew that Shang Yanxing was the third son of the Shang family; he also had an older sister and an older brother. He had returned from military service to become the head of the Shang family business. Shang Yanxing's ruthless methods were also well-known.
Shang Yanxing is now twenty-five years old, and at such a young age he is already the head of a business.
Everyone knows that the Third Master Shang is aloof and abstinent, and has never had any scandals with other women. He is like a divine being, unattainable to others.
Therefore, he must also mind sleeping in the same room as her.
That's just right; they were a fake couple for three years, and then they got divorced.
That evening, Jiang Susu and Shang Yanxing had dinner together.
The dinner table was quiet, and the two people seemed like strangers, barely saying a word.
"Tomorrow you're coming back to the old house with me to meet my parents."
Jiang Susu nodded and hummed in agreement.
After dinner, Jiang Susu went back to her room.
Shang Yanxing turned on his computer in the living room to look at documents, and Xu Ze brought over the documents that Shang Yanxing needed.
Shang Yanxing seemed to recall something, paused for a moment, and said, "Go and prepare a glass of warm milk for Madam; it will help her sleep."
After all, this is her first day here, and we're worried she might not be used to sleeping here.
Xu Ze nodded, "Okay, Third Master, I'll go prepare right away."
Xu Ze had only taken a few steps when Shang Yanxing called out to him, "Wait."
Xu Ze stopped and turned to look at Shang Yanxing.
"You go back first, I'll take it over."
Xu Ze: "...?" When did Third Master become so understanding?
Is it because you see he's working too hard, so you don't want to trouble him?
Xu Ze didn't dare to ask any more questions and left.
Shang Yanxing returned to his room shortly afterward. After taking a shower, he warmed a glass of milk for Jiang Susu.
"Knock knock knock—"
After Shang Yanxing knocked on the door a few times, the door opened.
Shang Yanxing stood in front of her in a loose-fitting bathrobe, revealing glimpses of his muscular physique. A few glistening water droplets slid down his neck and onto his skin.
Jiang Susu was momentarily lost in thought as she watched.
Coming to his senses, he asked, "Is something the matter?"
"I warmed up a glass of milk for you; it'll help you sleep. After all, it's your first day here, and I was worried you might not be used to sleeping well."
Jiang Susu nodded and took the glass of warm milk from Shang Yanxing's hand. "Thank you."
"Then I'm leaving. You should get some sleep."
"Um."
After watching Shang Yanxing leave, Jiang Susu closed the door.
She touched her cheek and felt it was a little hot. What had just happened? Why was she staring at Shang Yanxing?
Although she had always been by Shen Jishi's side and had no other men besides Shen Jishi's friends, she shouldn't be so greedy for a man's good looks, right?
She was just staring at Shang Yanxing, completely absorbed?
She never realized she was such a lecherous person before!
After Jiang Susu finished drinking the glass of milk, she went to sleep.
When Jiang Susu woke up the next day and went downstairs for breakfast, Shang Yanxing was already waiting for her.
As soon as she sat down, Shang Yanxing said, "Remember we went back to the old house today?"
Jiang Susu looked at Shang Yanxing with her beautiful almond-shaped eyes and nodded, "Yes, I remember."
"Good that you remember. We'll head back after breakfast and not keep them waiting."
"good."
After breakfast, Shang Yanxing took Jiang Susu back to the old house.
They arrived in about an hour.
Meanwhile, the whole family had gathered at the old house, all waiting for Shang Yanxing to return with his new wife.
At the entrance of the old house, Shang Yanxing reached out to hold Jiang Susu's hand and explained, "We have to make the act convincing, otherwise they will find out."
Jiang Susu nodded, offered her hand, and was led inside by Shang Yanxing.
As soon as they reached the door, Shang Yanxing heard Shang Liqian's voice.
"Uncle."
Shang Liqian ran up to Shang Yanxing and looked Jiang Susu up and down. "Is this the aunt you found for me?"
I think he's about the same age as her.
"What's wrong? Doesn't it look like it?"
Shang Liqian shook her head honestly, "No, it feels like I was tricked into coming here by you."
Shang Yanxing narrowed his eyes. "Shang Liqian, I think you want to kneel in the ancestral hall again, don't you?"
Upon hearing Shang Yanxing's words, Shang Liqian ran to Shang Mengzhou and Zhou Lanzhi, "Grandpa and Grandma, look, as soon as Uncle San came back, he told me to kneel in the ancestral hall."
Who would treat their own niece like that? Only Shang Yanxing would do something like that.
Shang Yanxing looked at Jiang Susu and said, "That's my little niece. She's young and doesn't know any better, please forgive her."
"It's nothing." Anyway, I don't have a problem with her.
Shang Yanxing led Jiang Susu to Shang Mengzhou and Xie Wanjun.
"Father, Mother, this is SuSu."
Jiang Susu politely greeted them, saying, "Dad, Mom."
Xie Wanjun walked up to Jiang Susu, looked the girl up and down, and asked incredulously, "Is this really the wife you married?" She felt like she had been kidnapped by this brat.
Shang Liqian couldn't help but laugh when she heard Xie Wanjun's words.
"Mom, this isn't the wife I married. Did you trick me into marrying her?"
Xie Wanjun: "It's not impossible."
Shang Yanxing: "..."
Is this really his biological mother?
Before they got married, she urged him to get married. Now that they've registered their marriage and brought her back, she no longer trusts him.
Xie Wanjun looked at Jiang Susu and said earnestly, "Girl, are you really planning to marry my stupid son? He has a terrible temper and always has a long face like he has a facial paralysis. How could you possibly like him?"
The fact that Qu Yanran, the daughter of the Qu family, stood up that blind date shows that her son really isn't popular with women.
So how could a son who is not popular with women possibly find a wife? This was hard for her to believe.
Jiang Susu was a little confused. "Huh...huh?" Who talks about their son like that?
Xie Wanjun explained, "My son is a lifelong bachelor. No girl has ever caught his eye. I see you're about the same age as Qianqian, so I'm afraid you're some naive girl he's tricked into marrying."
Shang Liqian is only eighteen years old. If this guy is the same age as her, wouldn't he be deceiving a naive young girl?
Therefore, as a mother, she certainly couldn't protect this brat like that.
Jiang Susu found it a bit outrageous and was completely bewildered.
Shang Yanxing said somewhat helplessly, "Mom, I finally found you a daughter-in-law. Don't scare her away later."
