Sheng Qian had dinner at Long's house before leaving.
She had no intention of staying at the Long family's house.
She has to go to another city tomorrow morning.
While her family saw her off, Long Shaotian took the tonics that Old Master Long had given to Sheng Qian and loaded them into the car.
Sheng Qian wasn't stupid, and she was also very perceptive, so she naturally noticed that Long Shaotian had been scrutinizing her ever since she returned to the house.
It wasn't the kind of curious stare you get from someone you've never met before, but rather the kind of stare you have something to say but don't know how to start.
"You have something to say to me," Sheng Qian said, taking advantage of the moment.
Long Shaotian was taken aback, cleared his throat, and said, "Second sister-in-law found out."
Long Shaotian gained a new understanding of Sheng Qian's keen insight.
"Speak."
"Does Second Sister-in-law know when Second Brother is returning to Beijing? I haven't seen him in so long. When I came back and heard that he had suffered a very serious injury, I was really worried. He's in a wheelchair now, so the mission he took on must not be very important..."
Only a small group of people knew that Long Yunting's legs were fine; others were unaware that he could walk normally.
This also includes other members of the Long family.
“I wasn’t involved in his mission, and I don’t know how important it was. When he’ll be back depends on how well he completes his mission. Is that all you’re asking?” Sheng Qian’s eyes clearly showed that she didn’t believe he was only asking this.
Long Shaotian recalled the scenes of Sheng Qian and Song Yuzhou spending time together, gritted his teeth, and still asked, "What does Second Sister-in-law think of Fourth Young Master Song?"
A very indirect and subtle way of asking the question.
Sheng Qian narrowed her eyes and stared at Long Shaotian, "Are you suspecting that I have an affair with Song Yuzhou?"
Long Shaotian's lips twitched. "I didn't say that."
"Isn't this what you wanted to ask? My relationship with Song Yuzhou is purely business-related, nothing more. You can rest assured about that."
Long Shaotian said awkwardly, "I really didn't suspect anything."
"Whether there is any suspicion or not, I should explain it to avoid any misunderstandings at home."
Long Shaotian said dejectedly, "I'm not the kind of person who talks a lot. My family doesn't know that my second sister-in-law and Song Sishao have had contact."
"You're quite tight-lipped."
Long Shaotian was even more embarrassed. "Well, Second Sister-in-law, I was just worried that you would be deceived by Song Si Shao's appearance, so I wanted to remind you. I didn't mean anything else."
"You're also worried that I'll cheat on you and hurt your second brother."
"Second sister-in-law..." Long Shaotian was on the verge of tears, "I really just..."
"If it were me, I would worry the same way. But you don't need to worry that I will cheat on you with your second brother. In my eyes, no other man can catch my eye except your second brother. No matter how outstanding he is, he cannot be the fuse that destroys our relationship."
Long Shaotian was taken aback by Sheng Qian's words.
He stared blankly at Sheng Qian, whose eyes were full of seriousness.
"Second Brother is lucky to have a sister-in-law!"
Looking at Sheng Qian's determined eyes, Long Shaotian seemed to understand something.
“It’s my good fortune,” Sheng Qian smiled. “Now you can rest assured.”
Long Shaotian cleared his throat again to cover his embarrassment. "I certainly believe in Second Sister-in-law. I'm sorry for thinking that way about you before. But I still want to remind you that Song Yuzhou's gaze towards you is a little different. I believe in Second Sister-in-law, but I don't believe in Song Yuzhou."
Sheng Qian was taken aback for a moment, then said, "Song Yuzhou wouldn't look down on me, you can rest assured about that."
Long Shaotian stared intently at Sheng Qian for a while, then became even more frustrated.
Second sister-in-law doesn't seem like a slow-witted person, so why is she so slow to react in this regard?
Or is she just pretending not to want to know?
"Whether you like her or not, Second Sister-in-law, you still need to be careful."
“Song Yuzhou wouldn’t do anything to dishonor his family,” Sheng Qian said meaningfully, then turned and got into her car and left.
Long Shaotian paused for a moment, watched the car drive away, and then suddenly smiled.
Greyley waited inside for a long time but didn't see him return, so he ran out. Seeing his smile, he curiously approached and asked, "Shaotian, what are you laughing at? Your second sister-in-law is gone?"
"Let's go," Long Shaotian said, holding his wife's hand tightly. "My second sister-in-law is really different. No wonder the family treats her very differently."
Greyley looked at him with a puzzled expression and said, "You've changed your mind about your second sister-in-law?"
"Yes, I suddenly feel that my second brother and sister-in-law's meeting might be God's arrangement. Although I only spent half a day with them, I can tell that our sister-in-law is really great. I've also been thinking, if it weren't for all those things that happened before, and my second brother and sister-in-law had never crossed paths, would it have been an outstanding man like Song Yuzhou who won her heart..."
It's such a pity just to think about it.
It would be even more of a pity if she really wasn't his second sister-in-law.
Greyley smiled and took his hand, saying, "You're excellent too!"
Long Shaotian simply smiled and squeezed her hand.
His second brother was the most outstanding; in his heart, no one was more outstanding than his second brother.
