Xiang Zhengyi is a man, so naturally he understands men.
When he went to find Shen Shixun, he was afraid of delaying his work, so he deliberately waited for him a little longer. After Shen Shixun came out, he asked the driver to get out of the car so he could talk to Shen Shixun alone.
"How have you been lately?"
"Well enough."
“Sehun, now that you and Zhizhi are married, it’s not right for you to live separately.”
Shen Shixun chuckled. "What does President Xiang want to say?"
Do you remember what I said to you back then?
When Xiang Zhengyi approached him, he wanted him to marry into the Xiang family. He told him that he cared deeply about his daughter, Xiang Nanzhi, and that she was his precious daughter. He hoped that they would live a good life together after their marriage.
But Xiang Nanzhi didn't like him, and he knew it in his heart. After getting married, he stayed away from the Xiang family, and no one said anything.
"I have my own life."
“You have your own life, but you’re not alone anymore. Zhizhi is your wife, and you need to think about her and the children.”
Xiang Zhengyi continued, "I understand that you are a young man with self-respect. It's just letting you go back to live there. What kind of sacrifice is that?"
“Zhizhi is pregnant, and she’s also the one who’s so nauseous she can’t get out of bed. You still make her run back and forth like this and stay at your place. I really feel sorry for her.”
As he spoke to Zhengyi, he clutched his chest and sighed, "Sehun, once Zhizhi's child is born and you become a father, you'll understand how I feel."
"Xiang Nan knows her..."
"Zhizhi is young and hasn't experienced the harsh realities of society. She's very naive, so as her husband, you should be more tolerant of her."
"Mr. Xiang, I..."
“You and Zhang Yandong are like brothers. He has a project that happens to be in cooperation with Ciyuan. We will be in frequent contact with him in the future. It will be very convenient for you to stay at home.”
He handed Zhengyi a cigarette and lit one for himself. "It wasn't you who asked to move into the Xiang family home. Today I've come personally to invite you back to stay with Zhizhi."
"I'm your father-in-law, you should give me some face."
Shen Shixun lit a cigarette and patted Zhengyi on the shoulder. "Then this matter is settled. There's no need to say anything more. Zhizhi has a bad temper. If she bullies you, I will help you. I will definitely teach her a lesson."
“A son-in-law is like half a son. I won’t let you suffer in the Xiang family. Don’t worry.”
"Give me the key, and I'll have someone help you move your things."
"Come on, don't worry."
If Xiang Zhengyi wants to accomplish something, there's almost nothing he can't do. He's flexible and adaptable, and he sets his stance in advance, leaving Shen Shixun no chance to say no.
——
After finishing his busy day, Shen Shixun returned to his residence. True to his word, he helped Zhengyi move out of the house. After returning the car, he headed towards Xiang's home.
Xiang Nanzhi had been waiting for him at the door for a while, and was extremely excited to see him arrive.
It was very late, and everyone in the family was asleep, but Xiang Nanzhi couldn't fall asleep no matter what she did. "Shen Shixun..."
It was bright outside, with lights illuminating the main road leading out of the villa. She stood at the door in her pajamas, waving to him, "Shen Shixun, come here quickly!"
On their wedding day, Shen Shixun never stayed overnight in Xiang Nanzhi's bedroom, nor did he know what her room looked like.
He simply came to the Xiang family's house.
In the middle of the night, Xiang Nanzhi pulled the man upstairs and led him to her bedside. "Sit down, I'll have someone prepare some food for you."
"Xiang Nanzhi, no need."
"That won't do. You've taken good care of me before, so I have to take care of you too. Just wait..."
The nanny was still awake, and soon brought up three dishes and a soup, which were placed on the table.
The woman's bedroom was large, and she turned on all the lights in the room.
The man seemed out of place here. He had taken on a few orders after get off work and finished relatively early today. Xiang Nanzhi sat on the carpet, resting her chin on her hand. Seeing how tired she was, he felt a little sorry for her.
"From now on, could you please stop driving for ride-hailing services? It's not profitable and it's exhausting."
"What if we encounter bad people?"
The man looked up at her. "Did you suggest to your father that I move here?"
"How is this possible..."
Xiang Nan, feeling guilty, took a sip of strawberry juice. "To be honest, I'm also very curious. Why did my dad suddenly ask you to come and stay at my house? What did he tell you?"
“I just got back from outside today, and he started talking about you coming to stay at my house. He even said that since we are husband and wife, it's not good for us to live separately.”
Seeing that this matter really had nothing to do with her, Shen Shixun thought that perhaps Xiang Zhengyi had his own plans. As he said, he couldn't bear to see his daughter running back and forth and felt sorry for her, so he sent him.
He finished his meal quickly, with Xiang Nanzhi staying by his side the whole time. The man seemed a little uncomfortable. "Xiang Nanzhi, you should go to sleep first."
"I'm not sleepy. I usually sleep until I naturally wake up at home. I took a long nap today, so I won't wake up this early."
It's true that pregnant women feel sleepy, and Xiang Nanzhi is now sleeping much longer at home than before.
She used to occasionally go to bars, but after the last time, she didn't want to go anymore. She felt that the place was too noisy and it hurt her ears.
"Finished eating?"
"Um."
The man picked up the bowl and chopsticks, intending to go downstairs in several trips. Xiang Nanzhi pressed a bell in the bedroom, and the nanny hurriedly came up to clear the table. "Young master, don't move, I'll do it."
The nanny looked nervous as she saw him holding it. Shen Shixun noticed that the nanny was about the same age as his own mother, and said, "I'll help you take it down."
"Son-in-law, are you trying to steal my job?"
Xiang Nanzhi laughed, unable to hold back her laughter.
Shen Shixun felt it was inappropriate to continue helping, so he let go.
After the nanny left, only the two of them remained in the bedroom. When the man came in, he didn't look closely, only noticing that Xiang Nanzhi's bedroom lights were on too much and too bright. Now that the nanny was gone, he had roughly surveyed the room.
This is the largest room in the Xiang family home, even larger than Xiang Zhengyi's room. The overall color scheme is light gray, not girly, but full of decadent and extravagant atmosphere.
The entire bedroom is covered with high-quality wool carpets, which are cleaned and maintained daily.
Xiang Nanzhi was wearing a pair of simple thin-soled slippers in the bedroom, a white nightgown with colorful lollipop prints, and her hair was naturally loose. She took his hand and led him towards the bathroom. "You can take a shower here. Here are your towel, toothbrush, toothpaste, and clothes."
"good."
Xiang Nanzhi sat on the balcony waiting for him, in a great mood. After Shen Shixun came out of the shower, the two lay down on the bed together.
It was the first time the man had spent the night at the Xiang family home, so he was naturally uncomfortable. The whole house smelled of Xiang Nanzhi, and the bed was even more astonishing; she was everywhere.
The bed was large, and Shen Shixun even deliberately slid out to the side, but the pillow and blanket still smelled of her.
