Chapter 110
Words that cut off the beginning and end.
It's hard to tell whether the old man was responding to the butler, or whether he was just casually mentioning it unconsciously.
At this time, there was no one else in the room except the housekeeper and the old man.
But even so, it was enough to shock the housekeeper.
after all……
For the sake of the second wife having a daughter before marriage.
The old man still doesn't want to acknowledge this second daughter-in-law.
Even though he almost passed away, he did not let his second daughter-in-law return to China.
Ms. Jiang previously admitted that she has a son and a daughter.
He took it for granted that it would be impossible for Miss Jiang to marry into the Shao family.
But the old man's current attitude made all his previous convictions less certain.
The housekeeper glanced at the old man subconsciously, wondering what he meant by this.
But I saw that the old man had closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep...
The housekeeper had no choice but to suppress his curiosity and quietly left the room.
…
In the quiet corridor, the two of them walked side by side.
A long silence spread between them, and neither of the two taciturn people spoke first.
Until Shao Zhanlin took the initiative to ask:
"How is grandpa's health?"
The man's voice was calm, but there was an impatient concern between the lines.
Jiang Nuantang knew everything about the patient's condition.
He pursed his lips lightly and said truthfully:
"The old gentleman is recovering very well. He will be able to walk in just two days."
After a pause, Jiang Nuantang added:
"If nothing else happens, it will be the same as before in another week."
I heard that everything about the old man is developing in a good direction.
Shao Zhanlin's frown relaxed a lot.
"That's good."
Shao Zhanlin nodded and said no more.
A long silence filled the air between the two of them again.
When he reached the door, Jiang Nuantang stopped and said to Shao Zhanlin:
"Thank you, Mr. Shao, just send it here."
Jiang Nuantang thanked him politely and gracefully, but saw Shao Zhanlin raise his eyebrows with confusion:
"Sent here? Are you going to walk back?"
Walk back?
Why walk back?
Jiang Nuantang subconsciously felt something was wrong, but couldn't figure out what was wrong.
She frowned slightly, opened her lips lightly and said:
"No, I took a taxi and asked the driver to wait for me outside..."
She thought that Shao Zhanlin didn't see her car, so she had a misunderstanding.
Jiang Nuantang explained a few more words, but in the end he heard:
"You mean that white car at the door? I asked him to go back first."
Shao Zhanlin's voice was calm, as if he was discussing the weather.
Jiang Nuantang's ears exploded!
"What did you say?"
Jiang Nuantang suddenly raised his head and looked at the tall man in front of him, his eyes full of shock:
"You asked him to go back first?"
"Um."
Shao Zhanlin responded lightly.
Even if he got a positive answer, Jiang Nuantang still didn't want to believe it.
She hurried outside.
Sure enough, I saw the bottom of the steps, where I got off the bus just now.
The white taxi that was originally promised to wait for her has disappeared.
Instead, there is a Maybach that is low-end and luxurious.
"Why?"
Jiang Nuantang's eyes darkened. She looked at Shao Zhanlin. She still didn't understand, but she saw the other party said righteously and solemnly:
"It's getting late, and his relatives should be waiting for him to come home."
what about me?
Jiang Nuantang protested in her heart, she also paid!
Why are you trapped here and controlled by others just because of his words?
Jiang Nuantang was filled with indignation and wanted to scold Shao Zhanlin, but when the words came to his lips, they became:
"Really? Mr. Shao is really kind."
Jiang Nuantang squeezed out a compliment through his teeth.
If she hadn't really not been able to offend the person in front of her, she would have gone berserk...
"Kindness is virtue."
Shao Zhanlin accepted Jiang Nuantang's praise calmly and walked to the car first.
He pulled out the driver's seat and sat on it, and said generously to Jiang Nuantang who was standing on the steps:
"Let's go! I'll take you back."
"Don't bother Mr. Shao."
Jiang Nuantang stood there with a cold face and did not move, mentally weighing whether to find someone to pick him up.
It would be better to go back and ask the housekeeper to arrange a driver for her.
Shao Zhanlin was not upset after being rejected, and said calmly:
"I drove your driver away, so I have to compensate you."
you know too?
Jiang Nuantang glared at the culprit and cursed secretly in his heart.
When Shao Zhanlin received her gaze, he was not annoyed. He patted the passenger seat and urged:
"boarding."
The night begins and the sky becomes dark.
In the evening breeze, only the dim street lights and elongated shadows complemented Jiang Nuantang.
Jiang Nuantang thought about it and felt that it was impractical to find someone to pick her up, but she didn't want to trouble the housekeeper.
Since there are people rushing to work as free labor, why wouldn't she do it?
Jiang Nuantang frowned, was silent for a while, and finally walked down the stairs.
Walk to the car, open the door, and get in:
"Dijing Lanting, thank you!"
When you get on the bus, tell you the location.
Since he wants to be a driver, she naturally has to do what a passenger should do.
Shao Zhanlin raised his eyebrows, but didn't say anything.
After she fastened her seat belt, she started the engine and drove forward.
The whole journey was silent.
Looking at Shao Zhanlin who was concentrating on driving in the driver's seat, Jiang Nuantang was a little confused.
This person tried her best to let the driver who was waiting for her go first.
Is it possible to send her home?
I always thought it was unlikely.
But other than that, he really didn't do much.
Jiang Nuantang had to admit that he was too worried.
…
Emperor Jinglan Ting.
As soon as the car stopped, Jiang Nuantang unbuckled his seat belt.
Thank you to the driver who worked hard along the way:
"Thank you for sending me back. It's getting late, so you should go back quickly!"
After saying the polite words, Jiang Nuantang was about to get off the car.
Unexpectedly, I just put my hand on the door handle.
I heard the sound of the central locking falling.
"etc."
