As Shen Manting was doing her rounds, the old man from the day before’s surgery had gained consciousness and learned that she had delayed the registration of the marriage because of him. He felt bad and wanted to ask his son to treat her to a meal.
Just as Shen Manting was about to reject his kind offer, she received a call from Xue Chenkong. She quickly replied, “I’ll be there soon. Wait for me in my office. ”
“All right, I’ll wait for you, ” Xue Chenkong said gently. “You can go ahead with your work. ”
Shen Manting put down the phone, subconsciously flashing a sweet smile.
The old man lying on the bed said with relief, “The relationship between you and your husband is really good. ”
Shen Manting’s expression changed slightly when she heard that. Then, she smiled. Was their relationship really good?
At the office door.
Knowing that Shen Manting was very busy with work, Xue Chenkong sat on the bench in the corridor, holding a lunch box in his arms. He took out the recipe book he had been studying for a long time from his pocket. Shen Manting was too thin, and yet she was so busy at work. That made his heart ache. At the thought of Shen Manting, Xue Chenkong couldn’t help but smile.
As the sun shone on his already handsome face, it revealed the fairness of his skin and the loose strands of hair on his forehead that lazily draped over his eyebrows.
Not far away, the nurses on duty saw the scene and rubbed their hands together excitedly. “Who is that? He’s so handsome. ”
“He’s even more handsome than the hottest male celebrity now. ”
…
Xue Chenkong was so engrossed in his thoughts that he did not notice the exclamations of the people around him.
One of the pretty nurses went up to him and asked, “Sir, are you waiting for someone? ”
Xue Chenkong’s expression turned cold at the interruption of his thoughts. His eyes turned sinister as he looked at the infatuated woman. “Do you have any business with me? ”
“N-No… ” The nurse was so scared that she stuttered.
“Chenkong! ” At that moment, Shen Manting finally arrived. She saw a woman standing beside Xue Chenkong, and her beautiful eyebrows furrowed slightly.
The crisp voice made the coldness on Xue Chenkong’s face disappear, and he became gentle again. “Are you tired? ” He pulled Shen Manting to his side and took out a handkerchief to wipe her sweat.
“I’m managing. Chenkong, we’re outside. Watch it. ” Shen Manting tilted her head slightly, her face slightly red. She couldn’t be like him, being too intimate in public without any burden.
A hurt look flashed across Xue Chenkong’s eyes. He held her hand and led her downstairs. “Let’s eat in the car then. Guess what I made you? ”
“All right, ” Shen Manting responded, reaching out to him. Feeling the warmth of his palm, she felt her heart suddenly beat faster.
The young nurses that were infatuated with Xue Chenkong knew who Shen Manting was the moment they saw her. They then clutched their hearts and wailed.
Meanwhile, Qi Jingwan stood at the end of the corridor and saw everything clearly. She didn’t understand when Shen Manting and Xue Chenkong had become so close. She frowned, then took out her phone and sent a message.
After Shen Manting got off work that night, she went back to the Shen residence. However, before she entered the house, she heard her parents quarreling.
“What does it matter to them who our child chooses to marry? ” The one who spoke was Shen Guangsi. He had just returned from a social event where a group of people congratulated him on the surface but mocked him on the inside.
When Qi Yingfang heard that, she slammed the table in anger, her aura intimidating. “Whoever dares to slander my daughter behind her back, I’ll tear their mouth apart! ”
The more Shen Guangsi spoke, the more aggrieved he felt. “It was your big brother!”
“Pfft, he’s no longer my brother! ” Qi Yingfang’s face was full of anger. “All that matters is that the children live well. It’s none of their business! ”
“I concur, ” Shen Guangsi said as he moved closer. However, as he got closer, the smell of alcohol on his body could not be concealed.
Qi Yingfang suddenly frowned, her eyes scrutinizing him. “Did you drink again? ”
“I had my reasons! ” Startled, Shen Guangsi turned around and prepared to run.
However, Qi Yingfang’s hand was faster. She pinched his ear. “You actually dared to drink? Your daughter didn’t let you drink any alcohol, so you drank it secretly? Did you forget that you have gout? ”
“A-Ah! Softer, darling! You’re hurting me! ” Shen Guangsi stomped his feet anxiously.
“Can you keep her words in mind? ” Qi Yingfang added strength again.
“I can! I’m sure I can this time! ” Shen Guangsi quickly begged for mercy.
Only then did Qi Yingfang let go. “I’ll let you off this time. If there’s a next time, I’ll chop off your legs! ”
Shen Guangsi trembled. “Don’t worry, darling. I will never attend such boring social events again… ”
