He stopped going upstairs, turned around, took off the white gloves on his hands, and walked to the dining table with a smile on his face: "Are there guests today?"
"My roommate, Li Rong," Shen Ruoning introduced him, "Brother, I don't know if you still remember, but I also came here for my birthday before."
"Hello." Shen Mingzhou greeted.
Li Rong smiled back: "Hello."
The servant added a pair of bowls and chopsticks, and Shen Mingzhou sat across from Li Rong, looking at Li Rong constantly.
Li Rong felt it herself and felt a little uncomfortable. She discovered it last time, but she brought An An here with her and later told Shen Mingzhou that she was married and had children.
She thought Shen Mingzhou should stop even if he had any ideas.
Now he keeps looking at her, which makes her very uncomfortable.
Shen Ruoning was still chatting about the previous topic, and her mind had been immersed in making Li Rong's idea bigger and stronger, and doing a good job to show to her family.
He didn't notice Li Rong's embarrassment at all.
But Xu Jinghe noticed it. She originally just wanted to ask her son how his work was, but she found something was wrong with her son's eyes.
She is someone who has been here before, and she knows very well the look in Shen Mingzhou's eyes, the way he looks at his sweetheart.
She looked at Li Rong again. She was knowledgeable, good-looking, and well-spoken. She was very satisfied with such a person as her daughter-in-law.
No wonder Mingzhou fell in love with her.
It's a pity that God plays tricks on people.
Li Rong is married and has a son.
It is absolutely impossible for Xu Jinghe to let Shen Mingzhou do things that harm other people's families.
She sighed softly, with a discerning tone in her tone, and shouted: "Mingzhou."
After shouting twice, Shen Mingzhou came back to his senses and looked at his mother: "What's wrong? Mom."
Xu Jinghe gave Shen Mingzhou a piece of pork ribs: "Eat."
There was a warning in her eyes.
Shen Mingzhou's eyes flashed, knowing that his mother had noticed.
He lowered his eyes: "Thank you, Mom."
After that, Shen Mingzhou stopped staring at Li Rong, which made Li Rong relieved and grateful to Xu Jinghe for her rescue.
She promised Shen Ruoning to come and stay at Shen's house tonight, and they would go back to school together tomorrow.
I forgot about Shen Mingzhou today. Now Li Rong is thinking, why not go back? It doesn't seem good to spend the night here again.
She made an excuse and said she wanted to go back to school.
Shen Ruoning quit, and snorted: "Didn't you say you wanted to accompany me? Let's go to school together tomorrow. It's so late now, and there's nothing you can do when you go back."
In the end, of course Li Rong didn't leave.
Xu Jinghe originally prepared a guest room for Li Rong, but Shen Ruoning insisted on sleeping with Li Rong.
Moreover, Li Rong felt that sleeping with Shen Ruoning would be better.
It wasn't that she was overthinking it. The way Shen Mingzhou looked at her today, she was really afraid that he would enter her house in the middle of the night.
There is a bathroom in Shen Ruoning's house. After entering the house, there is basically no chance to meet Shen Mingzhou.
Li Rong thinks this is pretty good.
Before going to bed, it was naturally bestie time. The lights were turned off, and the two of them didn't sleep. They kept talking about this and that.
Although Li Rong had given birth to a child, and her two lifetimes combined were almost thirty years, she was still like a little girl, chatting very well with Shen Ruoning.
Girls like to talk about relationships and gossip when the lights are turned off.
Li Rong took the opportunity to "force" Shen Ruoning and Li Ruizhi about their current situation: "Can you still be my third sister-in-law? It's been more than half a year now, why haven't you decided yet?"
Shen Ruoning was also worried: "I don't know, your third brother has such a head, I don't know what to think about. I've hinted many times, but he didn't respond."
After a while, Li Rong suddenly said: "That shouldn't be the case. Could it be that...my third brother is not interested in you?"
"No, it's really boring. Why would I give you something?" Li Rong said again.
"Really?" Shen Ruoning grabbed the quilt, "I think so too."
Li Rong asked several more questions, and in the end, the more she thought about it, the more strange she felt: "Why do I feel that the way you get along now is that you are a match? Is there a possibility that my third brother has already regarded you as a match? "
"Oh my god! No way!" Shen Ruoning was stunned.
Li Rong gave her some advice: "Why don't you ask next time when you hit a straight ball?"
The two chatted until midnight before going to bed.
Early the next morning, Li Rong did not expect that she would actually eat breakfast with Shen Mingzhou.
Shen Ruoning obviously told her that Shen Mingzhou usually didn't have breakfast at home.
How careless.
Li Rong ate quickly, and Shen Ruoning thought she was in a hurry to go back to school, so she also ate quickly.
Li Rong thought that if she left after eating, she would not confront Shen Mingzhou. Unexpectedly, Shen Mingzhou actually offered to send Shen Ruoning and the others to school.
She winked at Shen Ruoning crazily, hoping that Shen Ruoning would refuse.
Shen Ruoning didn't see what Shen Mingzhou was thinking about Li Rong, nor did he receive Li Rong's eyes. She smiled in surprise: "Brother, what's wrong with you today? You actually want to send me to school."
"What are you talking about? Isn't my brother treating you well?"
"Okay, of course, but you have never sent me to school. What day is today?"
"Come on, you're getting a good deal and you're good. Get in the car."
Shen Ruoning happily opened the car door and pulled Li Rong to get in. Before the car drove out of the door, Shen Ruoning reminded each other that there were still things they hadn't brought.
She called out: "Brother, stop the car, I forgot my things."
"What a waste." Shen Mingzhou smiled and stopped the car.
Li Rong's hands were faster than her brain, and she grabbed Shen Ruoning's hand: "What did you forget to take? It's not important. I'll get it when I come back tonight?"
She really doesn't want to be alone with Shen Mingzhou!
And it's still in this small, airtight compartment.
"It's a very important thing. It's okay. I'll go up and get it quickly." Shen Ruoning thought Li Rong was in a hurry, so she added, "It's still early, we won't be late."
Li Rong was about to say, how about she go back with him? When she was about to get off the car, Shen Ruoning pushed her back and sat her down on the chair: "I can go back by myself, it will take a few minutes."
"All right......"
You are really afraid of everything. As soon as Shen Ruoning left, Shen Mingzhou asked: "Li Rong, are you afraid of me?"
"Ah? No."
"Then why have you been avoiding me?"
"...I'm not avoiding you, right?" Li Rong smiled awkwardly.
"I quite like you, can you feel it?"
Li Rong's apricot eyes widened slightly, Shen Mingzhou was indeed Shen Ruoning's brother and a member of the family, yet he was so direct.
The same was true when Shen Ruoning talked to Li Ruizhi before.
Li Rong finally experienced Li Ruizhi's original mood, which was really hard to describe in words.
Shen Mingzhou turned back to look at Li Rong, with oppression in his eyes.
Li Rong's heart froze for a moment, and she looked out the window stiffly and said, "I'm married, please respect yourself."
Shen Mingzhou smiled casually: "I heard that you met your husband when he went to the countryside to join a queue. He is from the countryside and has no formal job. Do you think you can last long?"
"Yes." Li Rong turned her head and said firmly.
Shen Mingzhou suffocated and pursed his lips, because Shen Ruoning got off and turned back to drive without saying anything.
