Chapter 52 Mission
Shen Chutang held a miniature version of Daidai in his palm, and felt a warm sensation.
"Shi Chengyu, when did you do this?" Shen Chutang looked at him emotionally, her eyes watery and about to shed tears.
Shi Chengyu touched her face and said, "I promised you, dear, don't shed tears."
Shen Chutang leaned on her shoulder, clenching his hands tightly, "But I didn't finish drinking that day."
"It's okay, Tangtang." Shi Chengyu hugged her, "I'll give it to you even if you don't want to drink it."
I just took the opportunity to make some requests.
"I'll eat well from now on." Shen Chutang said in his arms, "The supplements are delicious too."
"I won't get sick again." She promised vigorously, and did not forget to bring Shi Chengyu along, "Brother Chengyu too."
Shi Chengyu smiled softly, "Okay."
At the moment the negotiation was over, he already felt that he had made a profit, and now these were more like an extra surprise. Shen Chutang certainly couldn't use so many tableware, and the cups and the Daidai little dolls were all given to him.
As the New Year atmosphere grew stronger, Shen Gengli finally found time to rush back from Suzhou, and Shen Yanheng also took a holiday.
Shi Chengyu returned to the Shi family's old house, and before leaving, he told Shen Chutang that the New Year's gift would be delivered later. Shen Chutang didn't care about that, so she agreed and said that she would deliver hers later as well.
She originally thought that those tableware were gifts, but Shi Chengyu smiled and replied to her that it was impossible for a gift to be used so many times.
These days, there is a fireworks show at 8 o'clock every night. Shen Chutang can see it from the balcony. She never gets tired of it and waits for it on time every day.
"Good boy Tangtang~"
Shen Chutang was video chatting with Shi Chengyu. When she heard the voice, she turned around and saw Chen Musheng standing at the door wrapped in a shawl, waving at her.
"Brother Chengyu, I won't tell you anymore. My mother is here." Shen Chutang waved at the phone and then hung up.
Shen Chutang trotted over in slippers, "What's wrong, Mom?"
Chen Musheng pulled her to sit on the sofa, "Tangtang, the girl that Xiaojing took to the hospital to accompany you for a checkup last time, was she Jiman?"
Shen Chutang remembered that this was the case and nodded, "Yeah, what's the matter?"
"So what's she like? What's her personality like?"
Shen Chutang burst out laughing, "Mom, I've only met Sister Ji Man twice, but she's pretty and a nice person. She even gave me a mugwort sachet last time."
Chen Musheng was in deep thought. It was bad enough that the second son was secretly in love, but the third son was also doing this, and as a mother, she knew nothing about it.
"But mom, let me tell you a secret." Shen Chutang said mysteriously, then leaned over to her ear and whispered something.
Chen Musheng immediately covered his mouth in surprise, "Really?"
Shen Chutang nodded, "Really."
Chen Musheng suddenly took her hand again, "Tangtang, Mommy has a task for you."
"ah?"
Ten minutes later, Shen Chutang, who was shouldering a heavy responsibility, knocked on Shen Sujing's door.
"Tangtang? What's wrong?"
"Third brother, mom asked me to bring you the five-red soup." Shen Chutang looked at the tray with a guilty conscience.
"Five-red soup?"
A burst of laughter came from Shen Sujing's phone, "Shen Sujing, you're still drinking this!"
Shen Sujing's face flushed instantly, "No, Tangtang, this is not what you usually drink, why are you giving it to me?"
Shen Chutang couldn't say that he couldn't find an excuse to come, "Auntie Wang cooked too much, so I gave it to you to bring some."
"Is it Tangtang?"
"Yes! It's me, Sister Ji Man!" Shen Chutang handed the tray to Shen Sujing, then greeted through the phone.
Shen Sujing handed her the phone helplessly and walked inside with the tray.
"Sister Ji Man, did you go home for the New Year?" Shen Chutang chatted with her naturally.
"No, Tangtang, I have some work to do these few days so I'll stay in Beijing."
"Ah? Sister, you are spending the New Year alone at home. Are you bored?"
Ji Man smiled and said, "It's OK. I'm used to it."
"Then Sister Ji Man, please come to our house to celebrate the New Year!"
As soon as Shen Chutang said this, not only Ji Man was a little surprised, but Shen Sujing was so scared that his hands shook and the spoon fell into the bowl.
"This...is not good."
"Why not? Sister Ji Man, I invited you to come. You won't refuse me, right?"
Shen Chutang is usually very good at acting coquettishly and making trouble, not to mention that for Ji Man, Shen Chutang has done her a favor.
"If it's Tangtang who invites me, I certainly can't refuse."
"Okay, it's settled then."
There was a call from Jiman, and the two of them said goodbye briefly and hung up.
Shen Sujing stared at Shen Chutang in amazement. Did he invite her over so easily? He felt that Ji Man seemed to like Shen Chutang more than him, and he suddenly felt a little sad.
"What's the matter, Third Brother?" Shen Chutang returned the phone to him and asked him with a smile.
Shen Sujing gave her a thumbs up, "Tangtang is amazing."
"Does Third Brother have anything to reward me?"
"You said, as long as Third Brother can do it, I will agree to it."
Shen Chutang showed a triumphant smile on his face, "How did you get to know Sister Ji Man?"
Shen Sujing seemed to have expected her to ask, "We met during the filming of a movie."
"Huh? You don't believe me." Shen Chutang stared at him, "You told me last time that Sister Ji Man didn't know you yet."
Shen Sujing said, "We didn't know each other at that time. We only got to know each other later."
"Then when did you fall in love with Sister Ji Man?" Shen Chutang asked again.
"When was it..." Shen Sujing said slowly, "Maybe five or six years ago? Do you remember that one day I came home very late after school?"
"That night I went out to play and lost my phone. It was very late and many shops were closed. I was walking alone on the street and I didn't know how long I would get there. Then I met Jiman."
"And then?"
"And then there was nothing much. She lent me her phone to make a call, and then accompanied me until the driver came over. Later, when I called back, the number was no longer in service."
"Then I saw her on TV."
He still remembers the feeling in his heart at that moment, and could clearly feel his heartbeat suddenly speeding up and losing control.
"So this is why you insisted on applying to acting school?"
"Yes." Shen Sujing answered subconsciously, and then reacted, "No, why do you have so many questions today? Go to bed quickly."
Shen Chutang completed her mission and ran away with a smile, "Mom - mission accomplished."
Shen Sujing's leg was still injured, and he couldn't catch up with her. He angrily called her name from behind, "Shen Chutang! You actually betrayed your brother!"
Shen Chutang had already thrown herself into Chen Musheng's arms, "Mom, my brother is so fierce."
"Don't be afraid, mom will protect you." Chen Musheng rubbed her head, "I didn't expect you to hide so deeply, Xiaojing."
Shen Sujing said, "Mom, you are also following Tangtang's lead in making trouble."
"I'm not kidding." Shen Chutang protested unhappily, "By the way, Mom, Sister Ji Man is coming tomorrow."
"Oh! So sudden!" Chen Musheng clapped his hands and said in panic, "What should I prepare? There is nothing at home!"
"Mom, don't get so excited. She's not my girlfriend yet!" Shen Sujing said hurriedly. The way they were doing, they would probably be scared away when someone came tomorrow.
Shen Chutang and Chen Musheng looked at him in a daze.
So he hasn't caught up with the girl yet?
