Chapter 39 - What Do You Want? (1/2)

Chapter 39: What Do You Want?

Song Yunxuan feels her heart beating wildly, and even feels a bit short of breath.

Then she hears the sound of approaching footsteps, which makes her become uptight.

She straightens up her back and clenches the cutlery.

At this time, she begins to think about how irritated the man should be.

But it’s not bad to let him know the fact, which may enable him to give up the intention to marry her.

With that in mind, she tries to get relaxed.

The sound of footsteps disappears in her ears.

She feels Shao Xue and Shao Tianze’s gaze are falling on her side.

So she soon realizes that Chu Mochen stops by her, and then she turns head sideways.

Chu Mochen’s flat voice comes: “How about the food? Does it suit your taste?”

In a daze, Song Yunxuan nods, “Very good.”

“Well, enjoy yourself please.”

Suddenly, Song Yunxuan feels her body is gently twisted by his arm, then, a soft kiss falls on her forehead.

She frowns and looks up at Chu Mochen’s face in surprise. It is amazing.

The man kisses her forehead in the dining room.

He’s not angry?

“Doesn’t he feel angry about that I eat with Shao Tianze secretly?”

Looking at her surprised look, Chu Mochen shows a soft smile: “Sorry, I have other things to deal with, so I can’t send you home. Have a good time.”

After that, he straightens up to pull her shoulder into his arms, and looks at Shao Tianze. “Please take care of my fiancee, Chairman Shao.”

Shao Tianze’s face softens: “Childe Chu, you can rest a.s.sured. Miss Yunxuan is my good friend.”

Chu Mochen nods. He enjoins on her with a smile, and then leaves with an a.s.sistant.

After he leaves, Song Yunxuan doesn’t recover from the surprise for a long time. Shao Tianze notices her blank expression then he sinks in deep gloom.

It’s so unexpected that Chu Mochen reacts in this way. He has thought that this man would be angry at being fooled.

It seems the food becomes insipid so that Song Yunxuan loses her appet.i.te. Looking at Song Yunxuan, Shao Xue starts to get worried about her.

But Song Yunxuan recovers after dinner. Shao Tianze offers to send her home.

She declines him and takes a taxi at the place where Shao Xue got off.

Before she leaves, Shao Tianze jokes with her: “Yunxuan, you worry that Childe Chu may treat me as his rival, so you don’t let me take you home, right?”

Song Yunxuan smiles: “Chairman Shao, I’m afraid that you misunderstood it. I’m just worried that will make my elder sister misunderstand.

After that, she gets off.

Shao Tianze looks a bit stiff. He answers, “Song Yunjia and I are just colleagues.”

Song Yunxuan gives a faint smile, “She will be upset if she hears that. My families have thought that you would announce the engagement soon.”

Shao Tianze looks sad. “My wife has just died. I’m not a heartless man, so I won’t find a new wife now.”

Song Yunxuan curled up her lips and sighs, “Chairman Shao, you really have a deep love for you wife.”

Her words seem to jogs his memory.

But Song Yunxuan cannot help sneering at him, silently.

Shao Tianze is always like this. No matter who he faces, he can always act in an appropriate way to make people sympathize with him.

Then she leaves by taxi.

After returning home, nurse w.a.n.g sees her at the door, worries, “Miss Yunxuan, why are you late?”

Song Yunxuan glances at the living room, asks with her querying eyebrows, “What’s wrong? Is there any guest at home?”

Nurse w.a.n.g nods, but still looks worried: “Childe Chu comes.”

Song Yunxuan feels her heart sinks. She becomes upset in an instant.

Looking her sad face, nurse w.a.n.g takes over her handbag and coat, whispers, “Miss Yunxuan, as Childe Chu says he intends to marry you, you’d better try to get on well with him.”

Song Yunxuan is distressed over her words, “That’s not true. It must be my eldest brother who asks you to say that to me.”

Nurse w.a.n.g doesn’t answer.

Song Yunxuan also stops asking as thinking that since Chu Mochen comes, it will be better to see him.

Anyway, he must come to talk about nothing but what he met in the restaurant

She thinks how to reply if being questioned by Song Yunqiang later. As soon as she enters the living room, Song Yunqiang, tinged with surprise, calls out: “Look! Yunxuan returns, Childe Chu.”

This sentence seems to signify Chu Mochen did not mention the restaurant.

Thus, she has no need to stay here.

Chu Mochen looks up at her, who pauses at the door of the living room, with a warm smile on his face.

Chu Mochen is handsome and tall, and his eyebrows show a kind of maturity of a young adult.

He gazes at Song Yunxuan with such a smile, which makes Song Yunqiang feel his unsophisticated sister must have been fascinated head over heels by him.

But the fact is not as good as Song Yunqiang thinks it is going to be.

Chu Mochen’s gaze locks with hers. But she just slightly close her lips, then says casually: “Brother, I’m sorry, I feel a little uncomfortable and I’m going to have a rest.”

That makes Song Yunqiang embarra.s.sed. He reaches out to call her, “Yunxuan, please sit down and talk with Chu Shao for a while!”

Song Yunxuan ignores his view, just glances at Chu Mochen before leaving.
