Chapter 508: Let’s Give It a Try (8)
Su Anle agreed to let Sheng Jianan accompany her back to Paris. Sheng Jianan immediately had someone prepare the tickets. Although Su Anle was going back, she wasn’t in a hurry. She informed Shen Jiyan of this decision, and Shen Jiyan didn’t seem too surprised or react much.
But when she told Qi Cheng and her friends that she decided to stay in B City, Qi Cheng cried and laughed over the phone.
Many times, we say that times change and people change. But some feelings don’t change with time. Su Anle didn’t know if it was like that for her and Sheng Jianan, but clearly, her affection for Qi Cheng, Bai Bing, and others hadn’t changed.
In the afternoon, Sheng Jianan left for some business. Su Anle found it inconvenient to go out because she had Su Weiyi with her, so she just called friends over to the apartment for a gathering.
"Wow Tangtang, did you move into another house again? Ah, rich people, really rich people. The sky-high prices for houses in B City, you actually buy them as you wish."
Su Anle didn’t respond to Qi Cheng’s teasing and took some fruit from the fridge.
Su Weiyi seemed unfamiliar with these aunts, shyly hiding behind Su Anle.
"Xiao Yi, come on, call Aunt."
Although Su Weiyi was a bit timid, since mom said so, she softly called out, "Hello aunts."
Qi Cheng, Bai Bing, and Bai Xue exchanged glances and all looked at Su Weiyi: "Hello Xiao Yi, Xiao Yi is so pretty."
Su Weiyi still didn’t seem to like interacting much with strangers, tugging on Su Anle’s clothes: "Mom, Xiao Yi wants to paint."
Su Anle patted her head and smiled: "Go ahead."
Once the girl’s figure disappeared into the room, Qi Cheng grabbed her: "Tangtang, did you escape with a baby back then?"
"No, Xiao Yi is my adopted child, not my biological one."
"Ah? Really? I thought she was yours and Mr. Sheng’s."
"No."
"By the way, where’s your Mr. Sheng? Could it be that you just agreed to reconcile, and he vanished?"
"He said he had something to take care of."
Sheng Jianan didn’t explain much about what it was, and Su Anle didn’t ask more.
In the Sheng Family’s old house, from the moment Sheng Jianan stepped in, the atmosphere in the entire house became strange.
Mrs. Sheng had people prepare many dishes he loved because her son was back. Shen Yao was also present, but Sheng Jianan’s gaze didn’t linger on her at all, directly looking at Mrs. Sheng: "Mom, I need to ask you something."
Sheng Jianan’s tone wasn’t great, even a bit cold, making the smile on Mrs. Sheng’s face freeze. It took two seconds before she recovered: "You child, just say what you want to say."
Sheng Jianan glanced at Shen Yao: "Let’s talk in the study."
Even though they were mother and son, Sheng Jianan’s aura was overwhelmingly strong. His face turned serious, even Mrs. Sheng felt a bit intimidated.
"Jianan, what do you want to say?"
After sitting down in the study, Mrs. Sheng spoke first, but her tone carried some guilt.
Sheng Jianan, standing with his back to her, tapped his fingers on the table: "Mom, three years ago, Yanxi was in a car accident, did you know about this?"
Mrs. Sheng’s body stiffened, but soon she returned to normal, showing a surprised expression: "Car accident? How could there be a car accident?"
Sheng Jianan turned back, his eyes slightly narrowed, his gaze very faint, very cool: "You didn’t know?"
"You child, what are you talking about? How could I know? Where did you hear about this?"
Sheng Jianan didn’t speak, just quietly looked at his mother.
