Chapter 554: I was too anxious
Let’s end it here, okay?
Song Yansheng’s words were truly tempting and moving for Shi Nuan.
However, she couldn’t even bring herself to say okay.
Even though she was living such a peaceful and gentle life with Song Yansheng now, she wouldn’t forget what her initial purpose in relying on Song Yansheng was.
Her mother’s death, her grandfather’s unrest, and the Xu Family’s assets being swallowed up completely...
She had been selfish to many people and couldn’t continue being selfish like this!
So she couldn’t give Song Yansheng a "yes"!
She leaned against Song Yansheng’s chest, took a deep breath, and said, "Second Uncle, have you never felt any resentment?"
She wasn’t the only one who experienced family upheavals in her youth; she believed Song Yansheng should be the one who understood her the most.
They truly wanted to live a peaceful life like most people, but reality didn’t allow it, fate didn’t allow it, what could they do?
Sure enough, after hearing her words, Song Yansheng sighed and helplessly said, "Mm, I was too impatient, I’m sorry..."
Just last night, he said they weren’t in a hurry and could take it slowly, and now he was already hoping for all this.
He asked impulsively, if he were just a bit more rational, he probably wouldn’t have even asked.
Shi Nuan gently shook her head, saying, "Second Uncle, you’ve already done great. It’s me who isn’t good, I..."
"Shh—" Song Yansheng put a finger on her lips and smiled gently, "Don’t apologize to me, and don’t feel guilty. Nuannuan, no matter the purpose that brought us together, I hope we can have a good ending. I’m trying, and as long as you know this, that’s enough!"
...
Shen Zui learned from Qi Ruisong that he had been criticized for digging up Song Yichuan’s grave two hours after Qi Ruisong called Shi Nuan.
Unable, ever since Shen Zui signed with the economic company, his schedule had become very busy. He was too eager for success, so he actively cooperated with the company’s promotional activities and announcements.
Let alone contacting Qi Ruisong, he even had very few opportunities to contact his own sister Shen Jiu’er.
Otherwise, Shen Jiu’er wouldn’t have had nowhere to vent her anger and called Qi Ruisong.
Even Qi Ruisong had to personally go to the economic company where Shen Zui was, looking around before he found Shen Zui’s people.
At that time, Shen Zui just had a twenty-minute break for touch-up makeup.
Shen Zui directly dismissed the stylist and make-up artist, asking Qi Ruisong what he wanted.
Qi Ruisong didn’t waste time and immediately explained the whole situation; to show his grievance, he also mentioned how Shen Jiu’er scolded him.
And at this point, he was very angry.
He said, "Shen Zui, I’m not saying this, but your sister is twenty-six this year and still doesn’t have a boyfriend, and there’s a reason for it. Only I’m blind enough to keep pursuing her. If another woman treated me like this, I would have slapped her across the face long ago, damn it!"
Shen Zui ignored Qi Ruisong’s complaints, instead instantly falling into deep thought.
Then, he curled his lips into a cold smile and said, "I didn’t expect him to use such despicable means to frame me, it’s really disgraceful, huh!"
Qi Ruisong was confused: "What are you saying? Who used despicable means to frame you? Wait, wait, do you know who framed you?"
Shen Zui did not answer, just gave a faint smile and said, "But I, Shen Zui, am not so easy to handle. On the contrary, the more he does this, the more it exposes his unease. It’s actually in my favor..."
