"Yao Yao, thank you. Don't worry too much. How can we blame you?" Shi Qiu Qiu smiled and comforted Jiang Yuyao thoughtfully.
Sheng Lijue's expression also softened a bit, but he secretly felt that he should persuade Shi Qiuqiu to make the relationship public.
Shi Qiuqiu and Jiang Yuyao took the tea out, while Sheng Lijue followed behind.
Mr. Sheng was concentrating on arranging the chess game. It seemed that he had been doing it for a while, and he didn't seem to have any intention of urging her. Shi Qiuqiu felt a little strange.
Then just now Jiang Yuyao said that she would urge them on behalf of the servants, isn't it very contradictory?
Then I thought about it, maybe Mr. Sheng was thirsty for a moment, so he asked someone to ask.
Seeing the tea being brought, Mr. Sheng walked over to the coffee table and said, "Qiuqiu, after we finish drinking tea, we can play a few games of chess with grandpa."
"Okay, Grandpa Sheng, you drink tea first." Shi Qiuqiu respectfully handed the cup to Grandpa Sheng.
Shi Qiuqiu tried not to think about the kiss she had just had with Sheng Lijue from the kitchen, and handed the tea to Sheng Lijue calmly: "Mr. Sheng, here you go."
Sheng Lijue didn't like the phrase "Mr. Sheng" very much. He had a smile in his eyes and wanted to tease Shi Qiuqiu: "Why do you think the lipstick on your mouth is a bit sticky? Did you go to the kitchen to eat something secretly?"
"Why are you talking? Qiuqiu is eating at our house, why do you have to eat secretly? What about others? Your mouth is swollen too, don't you think?" Mr. Sheng was worried about Qiuqiu's embarrassment and immediately defended her.
Shi Qiuqiu's heart was in her throat, praying that Mr. Sheng would never associate the two things!
"I eat chili peppers." Sheng Lijue coughed lightly and explained.
"Maybe I accidentally touched it just now. I'm going to the bathroom to touch up my makeup." Shi Qiuqiu quickly used this excuse to leave the living room, a place of right and wrong.
What is Sheng Lijue trying to do? Are you afraid that Mr. Sheng won't find out?
Seeing Shi Qiuqiu walking away, Mr. Sheng warned Sheng Lijue in a low voice: "Don't make such jokes with Qiuqiu. It will make Qiuqiu very embarrassed. No wonder you can't get a girlfriend."
"Yao Yao, with your brother Li Jue like this, I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to find a girlfriend." After saying that, Mr. Sheng deliberately nodded at Jiang Yuyao, wanting to see Jiang Yuyao's reaction.
Jiang Yuyao was secretly happy, but she still pretended to be very reserved: "Brother Li Jue is so good. There are so many girls who like him. How can he not find a girlfriend?"
"You can't make girls happy, but girls also like it?" Mr. Sheng asked.
"I like it. I think what us girls value more when looking for a boyfriend is character. Besides, brother Li Jue is handsome and capable." Jiang Yuyao Runwu quietly incorporated her own views into it, adding that she was also
It comes down to the queue of girls who like Sheng Lijue.
Mr. Sheng smiled from ear to ear and almost asked, "Do you like our Jue?"
When Shi Qiuqiu came out of the bathroom, she happened to see Jiang Yuyao and Sheng Lijue sitting together. Mr. Sheng was smiling happily, as if they were a family.
The feeling of soreness and swelling rose in my heart, but I could only endure it.
When he came out of the old house, it was already past ten o'clock in the evening. Mr. Sheng originally wanted the driver to take Shi Qiuqiu back and asked Sheng Lijue to take Jiang Yuyao off.
But Sheng Lijue said that he could send them off together, so Mr. Sheng didn't say anything more.
With Jiang Yuyao in the carriage, Sheng Lijue and Shi Qiuqiu didn't say a few words, but Jiang Yuyao took the initiative to bring up the weekend art exhibition.
"Brother Li Jue, why don't I go to the weekend exhibition? It just so happens that you and your sister-in-law are going on a date." Jiang Yuyao always stood between the two of them, and Jiang Yuyao was also worried that Sheng Li Jue would be bored with her.
, so this time I chose to retreat instead of advance.
"It doesn't matter, let's go together." Sheng Lijue responded in a deep voice.
Mr. Sheng sent Sheng Mingcheng there just to find someone to spy on them secretly.
If Jiang Yuyao goes, he can ask Sheng Mingcheng to accompany her. If she doesn't go, she will undoubtedly take the initiative to expose his unusual relationship with Shi Qiuqiu.
"Yeah, it's good for four of us to play together." Shi Qiuqiu agreed, but felt indescribably awkward.
What's better? One is Sheng Mingcheng, whom she doesn't even want to see, and the other is Jiang Yuyao, who may be eyeing Sheng Lijue and was just short of being chosen as the daughter-in-law of the Sheng family.
After seeing Jiang Yuyao off, only Sheng Lijue and Shi Qiuqiu were left in the car, and the atmosphere suddenly became relaxed.
"Why did you mention the lipstick thing in front of Grandpa Sheng just now? What if Grandpa Sheng suspects you?" Shi Qiuqiu pouted, settling accounts with Sheng Lijue.
"I don't like hearing you call me 'Mr. Sheng'." Sheng Lijue replied.
Shi Qiuqiu held her forehead, but it wasn't what she wanted to shout: "Then you can't make such a joke..."
"Don't worry, I explained that I ate chili pepper." Seeing that Shi Qiuqiu was really a little angry, Sheng Lijue hurriedly comforted her.
Shi Qiuqiu was speechless: "But there are no spicy dishes on the table today, let alone chili."
"But I did eat it." Sheng Lijue insisted.
"Huh? When did you eat it?" Shi Qiuqiu looked at Sheng Lijue in confusion.
"Qiuqiu little pepper." Sheng Lijue replied seriously.
Shi Qiuqiu: "..."
Seeing that Shi Qiuqiu's mood improved, Sheng Lijue brought up the matter of making the relationship public.
"Qiuqiu, if the relationship was made public, wouldn't there be no need to be so busy tonight?" Sheng Lijue glanced at Shi Qiuqiu out of the corner of his eye, observing her reaction.
Shi Qiuqiu's eyes hesitated: "But Grandpa Sheng knows about it. What if it irritates him again, or he doesn't agree with us being together at all? It's better to hide it for now."
"Then, let me think about it again, okay?" Shi Qiuqiu's voice became deeper.
"Fool, I won't force you." Sheng Lijue rubbed the little woman's head and comforted her.
As long as Shi Qiuqiu is happy, it doesn't matter if she doesn't make it public for the time being.
Anyway, sooner or later I have to go back with him.
After dinner, Sheng Yarong pretended to be sleepy and went back to her room. In fact, she wanted to inform her son quickly and give him a few words of advice.
Sheng Mingcheng made an excuse to have dinner with a client tonight, so he couldn't come back. Mr. Sheng saw that he was rarely motivated, so he didn't force him to come back.
But Sheng Yarong knew how much her son weighed, so how could she go to accompany a client so late?
"Mingcheng, please spare your time on the weekend and go to the art museum to see the exhibition with your uncle, Jiang Yuyao, and Shi Qiuqiu." Sheng Yarong said, hearing a lot of noise on the other side of the phone.
Sheng Mingcheng was partying in a nightclub. When he heard the news, his heart dropped: "Why do you suddenly want to go to the exhibition? Or should you go with them?"
Jiang Yuyao is fine, but uncle and Shi Qiuqiu...
"Don't worry about it. Anyway, you should stay away from that Shi Qiuqiu. I just agreed according to the old man's words. Just follow your uncle on weekends and help me bring him and Jiang Yuyao together."
