Chapter 406: I Must Hold You
Shi Nuan injured her knee, and Song Yansheng directly called Shi Yuanbo, unleashing a storm of fury.
Shi Yuanbo trembled as he hung up the phone, then immediately called Yu Dou to suspend all of Shi Jiaojiao’s positions at the Shi Family company.
Furthermore, without his permission, Shi Jiaojiao was absolutely prohibited from stepping into the company again!
Shi Jiaojiao was on the verge of tears but had no one to question.
Moreover, she didn’t believe that Song Yansheng was behind this stirring up trouble.
She only thought that Shi Nuan reported to Shi Yuanbo after falling, which led to her current predicament!
She pleaded with Li Guirong, but Li Guirong simply scolded Shi Jiaojiao!
Truly, having such a foolish daughter was a disgrace to her!
Li Guirong stormed out of the Shi Family company, and Shi Jiaojiao turned to Yu Dou for help.
But Yu Dou merely responded in a calm voice: "This is President Shi’s decision. If even your mother is out of options, I’m even more helpless!"
Shi Jiaojiao staggered back two steps, feeling not only sadness and grief but also growing resentment towards Shi Nuan!
She didn’t regret tripping Shi Nuan at all; instead, she regretted not stepping forward to kick her a couple more times at that moment...
Truly, she regretted it to death!
...
Meanwhile, on Shi Nuan’s side, due to her knee injury, Song Yansheng ordered her to stay at the Song Mansion for proper recuperation, not allowing her to go anywhere.
Shi Nuan was unwilling; the leg injury wasn’t a big deal, even though it hurt terribly at the time. Now she could walk slowly, with some limping, but it didn’t significantly hinder her work.
However, since Song Yansheng wouldn’t let her go, she had no choice.
On the third morning of Shi Nuan recuperating at home, Song Yansheng didn’t have much going on, so he stayed at home to accompany Shi Nuan.
Now that Chi Rui had returned to the country, with both Chi Rui and Qiao Yichi at the company, he indeed could ease up a bit.
But Song Yansheng not going to the company didn’t mean he was free of work!
Handling work emails and signing documents, some of which were specially delivered by his secretary to the Song Mansion.
Saying he wasn’t idle wouldn’t be an exaggeration.
Around ten in the morning, Aunt Hui came upstairs to knock on the study door, reporting that there was a visitor downstairs.
Shi Nuan was puzzled; who would come to the Song Mansion?
She had been living there for almost two months, and aside from Gu Zheng and Ye Mingmei, no one else had really visited.
Song Yansheng, however, acted nonchalant, calmly closing his computer and saying, "Got it."
Aunt Hui went downstairs, and Song Yansheng stood up, walked over to Shi Nuan, and she looked at him, asking, "Do I... have to go down too?"
The person coming to the Song Mansion would certainly be looking for Song Yansheng, and Shi Nuan thought she wouldn’t need to go down.
But Song Yansheng gently took her hand, smiling tenderly, and said, "Of course you have to go down, and moreover..."
Shi Nuan was startled, caught off guard as Song Yansheng scooped her up in his arms!
Shi Nuan gasped, and to maintain balance, she had to wrap her arms around Song Yansheng’s neck!
Her face turned a bit pale, but being held by a man, she felt somewhat embarrassed.
So, besides the paleness, there was a touch of red.
Song Yansheng’s voice was gentle, reaching her ears: "And, I must carry you downstairs!"
Shi Nuan was confused; why did Song Yansheng insist on carrying her downstairs without reason?
Song Yansheng, with soft brows and eyes, leaned down and pecked her cheek, telling her not to worry, just to wait!
In recent days, although Song Yansheng found the taste irresistible and longed for more, he had not touched her again because of Shi Nuan’s knee injury.
No matter how he had treated her before, Shi Nuan still felt grateful to Song Yansheng for this consideration.
