The Big Shot is Also Crazy About Me Today

Chapter 559: Having Given Deep Affection, Can One Love Again?

Finally, under Shi Nuan’s persuasion, Ye Mingmei gave up the idea of opening the box.

After all, compared to uncovering Song Yansheng’s secrets, having meat to eat is more important!

But Ye Mingmei also had a request, saying that when they returned to Song Mansion, there had to be braised pork at every meal.

Shi Nuan said, "Having it at every meal is probably not possible, but having it every day should be doable!"

For breakfast and dinner, it would still be better to eat something lighter; she had to consider Ye Mingmei’s health.

Ye Mingmei thought for a moment and added a condition: "Then every time I come to Song Mansion in the future, little sister-in-law, you must prepare braised pork for me!"

Shi Nuan readily agreed.

After hanging up Ye Mingmei’s video call, Shi Nuan let out a sigh of relief.

Even though Ye Mingmei didn’t open the box, Shi Nuan could roughly guess that it must be related to that woman.

She told herself not to dwell on it, but unintentionally she kept thinking about it.

Without even realizing it, her attention and concern for Song Yansheng had increased more and more.

Outside, the fine rain drizzled, adding a hint of hazy beauty to the Dong Garden.

Shi Nuan’s gaze involuntarily drifted towards the southwest corner gardenia forest.

Those trees, including those at Song Mansion, were all personally planted by Song Yansheng.

Such profound affection — how many times can it occur in a lifetime?

Having devoted such deep feelings, could one still fall in love with someone else?

Shi Nuan felt that she had been softened by Song Yansheng’s tenderness over the past days, unlike her former self.

She began to settle into the present, beginning to enjoy the tranquility.

But she knew very well that since she was eleven, tranquility was never again possible in her life.

Shi Nuan was so engrossed in her own thoughts that she didn’t notice when someone opened the bedroom door and Song Yansheng entered with a plate of mangoes.

He watched Shi Nuan standing by the window in a daze, his handsome brows furrowed slightly.

Shi Nuan, as if unaware, remained focused on the view outside the window.

What was she thinking about? Or perhaps, what was weighing on her mind?

He intended to call out to her, but ultimately didn’t, instead feeling a slight tenderness for the quiet Shi Nuan.

The rain outside intensified, the pattering raindrops tapping on the windows, as if today, it seemed impossible for it to stop.

Shi Nuan sighed, just about to turn around, when a pair of men’s arms suddenly reached around and wrapped around her waist.

Immediately, her back pressed against the man’s solid and muscular chest.

Thump, thump, thump...

The man’s heartbeat was steady and strong, echoing in her senses.

Song Yansheng’s breath also came from above, close to her ear, gently exhaling.

Her slender waist was naturally encircled, followed by the man’s deep, magnetic voice.

He asked her, "What are you thinking about?"

Shi Nuan pursed her lips, her heart not yet calmed from the previous flutter, late June with thin clothing, and through such a casual embrace, their body warmth was exchanged.

Shi Nuan even caught a glimpse of Song Yansheng’s shape in the blurred silhouette on the glass.

It seemed he was embracing her so affectionately from behind, his head buried in her hair, in a leisurely manner.

Shi Nuan’s eyes sparkled as she said, "Nothing, just... watching the rain!"

"Do you like the rain?"

"Not really, just... watching casually!"

Song Yansheng responded with an "Mm," resting his chin on Shi Nuan’s shoulder, his deep eyes also looking towards the window.

He said, "Actually, once upon a time, I liked standing by the window watching the rain just like you, and once I looked, I would watch for a long, long time..."

He paused and then continued, "But, I don’t like the rain."
