Chapter 45: The Family

The sun shone on her face, and the warm temperature made Yan Ruo frown, and because of this light, she woke up from her sleep.

"How long do you want to sleep?"

Shen Xuyan's voice sounded in Yan Ruo's ears, forcing her to open her eyes.

"What time is it?"

Yanruo, who slept too dazedly, was reluctant to turn over with the quilt on his pillow.

"It's eleven o'clock, don't you want to get up yet?"

Shen Xuyan looked at Yan Ruo like this, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and lifted the quilt she was covering, and instantly Yan Ruo sat up in shock, pulling the quilt to cover his body.

"What are you doing!"

Looking at Shen Xuyan's expression that seemed to be smiling, Yan Ruo's face turned red in an instant.

"Obviously, tell you to get up, hurry up and wash up, Mama Zhang has made a lot of food and is waiting for you. ”

As he spoke, Shen Xuyan seemed to know how embarrassed Yan Ruo was at the moment, leaned over and kissed her on the cheek, and then got up and went out.

Yan Ruo looked at the back of Shen Xuyan leaving, waited for the door to close, and then patted his blushing face and prepared to get out of bed.

But at the moment of getting out of bed, his steps were unsteady and he almost fell out of bed.

For a moment, the madness of the two people last night appeared in his mind, which made Yan Ruo's mouth dry, so he quickly waved off the picture in his mind, hurriedly went to the bathroom to freshen up, changed his clothes and ran downstairs.

At this moment, Shen Xuyan was sitting on the sofa in the living room looking at the magazines, Yan Ruo glanced at it casually, and saw that it was those business magazines, and he was not interested in going to Zhang's mother to see what to eat.

"Ahh

But she didn't want to, just when Yan Ruo was about to go to Zhang's mother, Shen Xuyan, who had already gotten up from the sofa, hugged Yan Ruo in her arms directly from behind her, and Yan Ruo couldn't help screaming in fright.

"Don't scare me so suddenly!"

The angry Yan Ruo turned his head and wanted to hit Shen Xuyan, but was kissed on the lips by Shen Xuyan.

"Ouch, you two are really, come over for dinner. ”

Unfortunately, this affectionate scene was seen by Zhang's mother, and she laughed a few words, so that Yan Ruo was so ashamed that she didn't dare to say anything.

Since this period of time, Yan Ruo's body has basically recovered, and with the large number of things that Zhang's mother and Shen Xuyan have to feed her every day, the whole person looks much better than before, and she is no longer so thin that it is like a gust of wind can blow away.

Seeing that Yan Ruo had been in good spirits for several days, Shen Xuyan also relieved his heart and began to focus on matters at work.

And on such a leisurely weekend afternoon, Yan Ruo, who had eaten lunch, was surfing the Internet in Shen Xuyan's study, while Shen Xuyan was flipping through the documents on the side, and Shen Xuyan's mobile phone suddenly rang.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Hello?"

looked at Shen Xuyan, who didn't want to answer the caller ID, and finally frowned and picked it up.

"Preamble, shall we go out for a walk this weekend?"

The voice on the phone was gentle, but it was obvious that it was not as spirited as before.

"Today? I'm looking at the documents right now. ”

Rejection without direct rejection is sometimes the most hurtful perfunctory.

Sure enough, Yun Man on the other side of the phone paused for a while, and then heard Yun Man say: "Preface, have you forgotten that we are at the time today, and we should go to see our uncle?"

After a short silence, Shen Xuyan's frowning brows tightened a little.

"I'll pick you up in an hour. ”

Immediately, Shen Xuyan hung up the phone and turned his head to look at Yan Ruo, who had seen it because of this call.

"Yes...... Yunman, right?"

Yan Ruo, who was originally in a good mood, also guessed a few points after seeing Shen Xuyan's attitude.

Looking at Shen Xuyan's subsequent nodding, Yan Ruo reluctantly smiled.

"Since she's looking for you, then you should go quickly, after all...... After all, she's ...... you."

The rest of the sentence is a bit unspeakable.

Shen Xuyan got up, hugged Yan Ruo in his arms, and kissed her forehead gently.

"Wait for me to come back and have dinner together, okay?"

Immediately, after Yan Ruo nodded in agreement, Shen Xuyan didn't say anything more, took his coat and prepared to go out.

Yan Ruo was just in the study on the second floor, watching Shen Xuyan in the courtyard get into the car, and then get farther and farther away.

Yan Ruo, Yan Ruo, is it that you have been living too happily these days and have made you forget your own identity?

You are just a mistress who was taken care of, your mother is like this, you are the same, you are the real fiancΓ©e of Shen Xuyan, what are you?

Silent and speechless, he turned off the computer and looked out the window at the rare warm winter sun.

I remembered that my mother was often like this, sitting in front of the window, looking out the window, waiting for my father's occasional return.

That kind of lonely and helpless emotion has been transmitted in Yan Ruo's body and mind since he was a child, if he hadn't met Shen Xuyan later, maybe Yan Ruo would have been as weak as his mother, and he only knew how to rely on.

But...... Even after meeting Shen Xuyan, what would happen?

Didn't she end up like her mother?

Shen Xuyan, who came to pick up Yunman according to the agreement, looked at Yunman, who was slightly dressed up next to him, and was slightly irritable.

The atmosphere inside the car was a little depressed for a while, no one spoke, only the driver could be heard turning on the music, and the slow and elegant music was melodious.

"Preamble, I know you don't want to see me, but I think you'd better remember that we're engaged after all. ”

The atmosphere is too depressing, so that Yun Man, who has been high up since she was a child, has no way to continue to endure it.

Yunman has always been coaxed by others, but at this moment, she has to carefully coax Shen Xuyan, which can't help but be a little mocking for her.

"My uncle also said before that after getting engaged, you have to go back to see it at least once a month, this is a routine, no matter how unhappy you are, I think you will at least ...... in front of your uncle"

"Yunman. ”

Just as Yun Man continued, Shen Xuyan interrupted her.

Shen Xuyan, who had been looking at the documents in his hand and didn't plan to pay attention to anything, was still looking down at the documents in his hand at the moment.

"We got engaged, to be honest, only because of pressure from you and my father, maybe you weren't, but I must be. ”

I didn't think about what kind of emotions Yun Man had in his heart after hearing these words, and Shen Xuyan, who had never cared about others, said it so directly.

"In front of my father, I will be with you as always, but after that, I think I will find a way to break the engagement, and I think I should tell you about it. ”

Immediately, Shen Xuyan, who had been immersed in the document, finally raised his head, looked at Yun Man with a look of disbelief, and said that sentence.

"Is it because of Yanruo?"

And Yun Man, under the angry laughter, asked Shen Xuyan the reason.

"Half because of her, and the other half ......"

Looking at the car that had already arrived at the Shen family's villa, Shen Xuyan restrained the cold expression on his face a little.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Yunman, I won't marry you at all, you should know very well that I don't feel that way for you. ”

Immediately, the old housekeeper of the Shen family came over and opened the car door for Shen Xuyan, and before Yun Man could continue, he was swallowed into his stomach by force, and then showed his most perfect delicate smile.

"Young Master, Miss Yun, Madame and Master are waiting for you inside. ”

The old housekeeper brought Shen Xuyan and Yun Man into the villa, and on the sofa in the living room, Shen Xuyan's parents were smiling and chatting, as if they had said something very interesting.

"Yan'er, you are here, I was still talking to your father just now, why didn't you notify us of your two public engagements. ”

Next, there were all kinds of small talk, Shen Xuyan's mother also asked Yun Man to come to the room to match his clothes, and at this time, Shen Xuyan's father called Shen Xuyan to the study.

"Preamble, you are my son, and I am proud of you, but there are some things that I think you always have to grasp. ”

Single-handedly, Shen Xuyan's father didn't plan to go around the bend with his son at all.

"The girl of the Yun family is good, beautiful and temperamental, and you are a couple, and you don't have to choose, besides, the Yun family also has some connections in the political circles, which is only beneficial to our family and harmless, I think you know what you mean?"

Looking at his father sitting in the chair, Shen Xuyan couldn't say anything.

"Those things you made up, your Uncle Yun told me a little bit, man, it doesn't matter if there are one or two women outside, but after all, you have to pay more attention to the family relationship. ”

Father Shen's meaning is already obvious, that is, if the family behind Yun Man and their Shen family marry, there is no harm, on the contrary, if Shen Xuyan makes other things because of this marriage, it will not be beneficial to the people on both sides.

"Father's ......"

Finally, under the tangled thoughts, Shen Xuyan still opened his mouth.

"Father, did you and your mother fall in love with each other and get married?"

Faced with his son's question, Shen's father suddenly became angry.

"What do you mean by that? Do you think that the interests of the family can be compared with the affection of your children?"

Listening to his father's words, Shen Xuyan knew that he had no way to continue talking.

"There are some things that I will be able to grasp in measure, and I don't need my father to worry about it, and I will also handle Yunman's affairs. ”

Immediately, Shen Xuyan suppressed his emotions and replied respectfully to his father's words.

Shen's father thought that Shen Xuyan knew that he was wrong, and he would also consider the family, so he took a breath away, stood up and patted his son's shoulder, which was regarded as understanding of this conversation.

On the other hand, Shen's mother, who asked Yun Man to match her clothes, took Yun Man's hand and only praised her for her good vision, but when the conversation changed, there was something in the words.

"Xiaoman, my aunt likes an elegant and educated girl like you, and your father taught you very well. ”

"Where, aunt, you are too complimentary. ”

Yun Man also politely replied with a sentence or two, and put the adjusted accessories on Shen's mother.
