Chapter 284: Entanglement
Jiang Chu couldn't stop Shen's mother, who had been carried away by her grandson, and could only watch them embark on the road of buying groceries for themselves.
In the huge villa living room, only Jiang Chu and Shen Mu were left in an instant. Jiang Chu still had a disgust for Shen Mu in her heart, so as soon as Shen's mother left, she didn't have the heart to go back and forth with Shen Mu, turned around indifferently, and was about to go upstairs to rest. Seeing this, Shen Mu's heart sank, and before he could react in his mind, his feet had already chased after him.
Jiang Chu frowned, his steps couldn't help stopping, he stood in place, glanced coldly at the people around him, and asked lightly, "Mr. Shen, what else do you want to do?" ”
Shen Mu covered up the loss in his heart, he knew that something like this happened yesterday, and they would definitely not be able to maintain a state of respect for each other as usual today.
forcibly suppressed the uneasiness in his heart, a light smile appeared on Shen Mu's face, pretending to be light and light, and said leisurely: "It's nothing, I don't do anything, this is my home, you can go, I can go, what's wrong?" ”
Jiang Chu snorted coldly, flashed a gap, and cast his eyes not far away, obviously, this is the meaning of letting Shen Mu go first. Shen Mu saw that Jiang Chu didn't have the slightest desire to talk to him, but he had already released his words, and he couldn't believe his words, so he could only cough lightly twice, and slowly walked up the stairs to the second floor with his slippers.
Before Shen Mu's steps had taken two steps, he heard the sound of Jiang Chu behind him turning over and going downstairs. He stood still, turning to look back at the figure that had left indifferently.
Shen Mu hesitated for a moment, and suddenly said, "Oh, where is my newspaper?" Deliberately observing Jiang Chu's reaction, I saw that she sat back on the sofa in the living room very calmly, picked up the remote control and turned on the TV, and found a news channel at random and watched it.
Slowly walked down from the upper floor, Shen Mu glanced at Jiang Chu, found a place not far away and sat down, pulled over a newspaper casually, and pretended to read it.
Absentmindedly flipping through the newspaper in his hand, Shen Chong's mind kept wandering on Jiang Chu's body, and it was not until Wang Ma and Shen's mother came back from grocery shopping that this embarrassing situation was broken.
Mother Shen was so happy today that she went down to the kitchen to cook herself, and Jiang Chu was not allowed to interfere, in order to create a space for Jiang Chu and Shen Mu to be alone.
Shen Mu naturally knew his mother's plan, and he also wanted to take the opportunity to ease the relationship with Jiang Chu. In the past, they often had a cold war, but Shen Mu never took it to heart, and this time he didn't know why, he always felt very uncomfortable if he didn't ease the atmosphere between the two.
Shen Mu took out the flower tea that Wang Ma specially bought for Jiang Chu from the cabinet, carefully went through the water, brewed it, and brought it to Jiang Chu, but Jiang Chu only glanced at it lightly, and then did not make any moves.
"It is said that this flower tea tastes good, you can taste it." Shen Mu hesitated for a moment, but still spoke slowly.
Jiang Chu glanced at Shen Mu lightly, then looked at the hot tea curling with smoke, and said coldly in his mouth: "Why does Mr. Shen work hard to please me in front of me, what?" Is it the conscience that finds it, and there is a sense of guilt in the heart? ”
Shen Mu knew that she would definitely not turn the page so easily in her heart, and what he had just done was to let the two return to a friendly state, and even, to develop a better relationship.
Although he thought so in his heart, the words that came out of Shen Mu's mouth did not mean so. As proud as he is, how can he easily bow his head and admit his careful thoughts.
sat down lazily, leaned back on the sofa, a smile that disguised his embarrassment appeared on his admiring face, and said: "What Mr. Jiang said, we are husband and wife, why do we feel guilty when we do things like husband and wife?" Could it be that the two little red books at home are all decorations and decorations? ”
Shen Mu talked about yesterday's incident, there was not the slightest guilt and apology in his tone, his attitude angered Jiang Chu's dissatisfaction even more, if it wasn't for Shen's mother present, she would have exploded on the spot.
Gritting his teeth, Jiang Chu's eyes released a raging anger and stared at Shen Mu, the corners of his mouth pulled slightly, and a cruel sentence came out of his mouth: "What does Mr. Shen mean?" It's justified to be forced, isn't it? I really don't know why Mr. Shen has become so brazen! ”
Mr. Shen simply admitted Jiang Chu's words, shrugged his shoulders, and drank the tea in his hand gracefully, not taking the initiative to provoke Jiang Chu, lest the atmosphere between the two fall into a more freezing point again.
Half an hour later, there was a burst of calls from the kitchen: "Chu Chu, it's time to eat." Jiang Chu obediently responded, got up and left coldly, directly ignoring the existence of Shen Mu.
Shen Mu was not annoyed, he got up leisurely, grabbed his slippers and followed Jiang Chu's back, stretched his long legs, and came to Jiang Chu's side in three or two steps.
"Mr. Shen is really ghostly, and he is not afraid of being exposed to the sun in broad daylight." Jiang Chu leaned to the side, impatient to avoid the plague.
He was already accustomed to Jiang Chu's admiration with such an attitude, and his face was calm, but he tilted his head, stared at Jiang Chu with thanks, and said leisurely: "If I were a ghost, the first one to haunt me would be you." ”
Jiang Chu was so angry that he glared at him fiercely, his steps couldn't help but speed up, he walked to the side of the dining table and sat down. In order to prevent Shen Mu from sitting beside her, Jiang Chu deliberately put his legs on the chair beside him and rubbed his thighs as if he was uncomfortable.
This scene happened to be seen by Shen's mother, she didn't simply think that Jiang Chu was deliberately angry, but a wicked smile appeared at the corner of her mouth, obviously making this matter a sequelae of last night.
"Mu boy, what are you doing? Didn't you see your daughter-in-law's legs uncomfortable? Why don't you go over and rub your daughter-in-law. Mother Shen is now very fond of Jiang Chu, and she can't help babbling out of her mouth.
There was a playful light in his admiring eyes, and although he responded lazily, his hands and feet began to move very neatly. Jiang Chu was also tired of him, and he was not very resistant to the physical contact between them, and when he heard the sound, he hurriedly put his leg down, and refused repeatedly: "It's okay, I'm fine, don't bother...... Finish. ”
Jiang Chu naturally knew that he couldn't call Shen Mu to be President Shen in front of Shen's mother, but he couldn't call her out, so he could only pause and skip the title.
The corners of Shen Mu's eyes were slightly raised, and he saw the place where Jiang Chu had vacated, pulled out the chair and sat down, his eyebrows were full of pride. Jiang Chu was helpless, so he leaned the stool inside, trying to widen the distance between the two.
Shen's mother had also sat down, and the family started this warm breakfast and lunch. At the dinner table, Shen's mother treated Jiang Chu with special love, but on the other hand, Shen admired it, and was disliked by Shen's mother everywhere, like a child from an outsider's family.
"Look at Chu Chu so thin, quickly give Chu Chu meat to eat." Mother Shen looked at Shen Mu, who only cared about her own meal, and couldn't help urging, her words were full of iron.
The admiring chopsticks paused, raised his eyes, and was about to meet Jiang Chu's gaze. There was a reluctant look on his face, but the chopsticks reached into the plate very honestly, picked and chosen, picked up a piece with more meat and less bones, and put it on Jiang Chu's plate. Not only that, but he also got up directly, picked up Jiang Chu's bowl, and served her a soup.
With such careful admiration, Jiang Chu saw it for the first time, and his heart was a little throbbing inexplicably, but when he thought that this was Shen's mother's order, his mood slowly cooled down.
Because of Shen's mother's relationship, a meal was peaceful. After eating, after a little rest, Jiang Chu and Shen Mu were going to work in the company.
Mother Shen didn't miss any opportunity to promote the relationship between the two people, and when she saw Jiang Chu walking towards her car in high heels, she hurriedly dissuaded her: "Chu Chu, don't drive if you wear high heels, it's too dangerous." Let Mu Xiaozi take you, you go to work together and come back together, I will wait for you at home. ”
A trace of reluctance floated across Jiang Chu's face, she looked down at her high heels, looked at Shen Mu again, and refused: "Mom, I have flat shoes in my car, it's okay." Besides, we each have our own things to do, and it's more convenient to have two cars. ”
Where was Mother Shen willing to admit defeat so easily, and if she didn't succeed, she remembered another reason. She glared at Shen Mu fiercely, her eyes full of hints.
"What's inconvenient about this, in the future, wherever you go, let Mu Xiaozi be your driver, no matter how important the company's affairs are, they are not as important as your daughter-in-law." While speaking, Shen's mother walked towards Jiang Chu, as if she was afraid that she would suddenly run away while driving.
At this time, Shen Mu also walked to Jiang Chu's side, and while Shen's mother was not paying attention, he lowered his head slightly, leaned into Jiang Chu's ear, and persuaded loudly: "If you don't agree, we won't even think about leaving within ten minutes." ”
Jiang Chu frowned, thought for a moment, looked at the figure of Shen Mu coming, gritted his teeth and made a decision.
"Mom, don't come here, Mu and I are leaving, if we don't leave, we'll be late." Jiang Chu said with a smile.
Mother Shen looked at the matching appearance of the two talented women, and her heart was even more happy, and she couldn't help but advise: "Be good, pay attention to safety on the road." Mu boy, take good care of Chu Chu, otherwise I will only ask you. ”
Shen Mu shrugged his shoulders, and secretly said in his heart that his grandson was really closer than his son. Raising his hand to take the bag in Jiang Chu's hand, Shen Mu took the lead and walked into the car and started slowly, waiting for Jiang Chu.
The car door was opened, and Jiang Chu sat in expressionlessly, like a creditor who wanted a debt. Shen Mu didn't take the initiative to talk, and the two of them didn't communicate half-sentences along the way.
The car soon arrived downstairs in the company, and before Jiang Chu could move, Shen Mu took the lead in speaking: "Don't move yet." ”
Jiang Chu frowned, and watched inexplicably as the person beside him opened his seat belt and walked down from the driver's seat.
