However, Shen Xiran didn't feel anything unusual. Her hand gently supported his chest, and he was a little embarrassed: ”Sorry, I almost bumped into you.” He straightened up.
He no longer had any reason to place his hand on her, so he could only force himself to move away. Suppressing the reluctance in his heart, he asked, ”Are you alright?”
She moved her ankle and found that it was a little sore. She smiled and shook her head. ”It's fine.”
Xiao Rou anxiously apologized to her — I'm sorry, I didn't do it on purpose.
She smiled lightly and shook her head. ”It's fine.”
Xiao Rou heaved a sigh of relief, at the same time, she felt a little awkward for discovering her brother's thoughts.
Although she had a son, Le Le was still very cute. This was not a problem at all, she believed that her brother would also treat him as his own son, and that was between Sister Xi Ran and the man named Si Lianye …
She looked at the love in her brother's eyes that she could not conceal from him. She felt like she needed to find a time to talk to him.
She was completely immersed in her own thoughts, and did not notice the discomfort Shen Xiran felt from smiling.
As for Shangguan Zhe, he carefully noticed his presence. His thick eyebrows furrowed slightly, and he said to her: ”Sit down, I want to look at your feet.”
He pushed her onto the chair and bent down to take her left foot.
Her face looked as if she was on fire as she said awkwardly, ”No …” ”I just feel a bit uncomfortable. I didn't get hurt …”
He turned a deaf ear and took hold of her other foot. He saw that the ankle before him was actually a little red. He could not help but rub the ankle lightly with his palm. ”How do you feel now?”
She straightened her body and said, ”No …” ”Nothing, I don't understand anymore. I was just lightly touched …”
After rubbing it for a while, he found that there really was no change in her expression, and only then did he relax. However, he still took the medicinal wine and gently rubbed it for her, until she swore that there was no pain at all.
The atmosphere gradually became awkward, and she didn't know what she should say anymore. On the other hand, Shangguan Zhe's state of mind didn't belong to her, so she only looked at one thing, then looked at another, and didn't say anything more.
In the end, it was Shen Xiran who mustered up his courage to break the tense atmosphere. ”Then, it's decided.
Shangguan Zhe nodded his head: ”Don't worry, I will get my people to spread the news and see their reactions. If that doesn't work, then hold a press conference.”
She looked at him deeply. ”You have been wronged regarding this matter.”
Shangguan Zhe smiled lightly: ”Nothing, it's for Le Le.”
Xiao Rou opened her eyes wide, she was too late, she didn't understand what kind of riddle they were playing, but she quickly found out, because after she finished speaking, Shangguan Zhe turned to her and said: ”You are going to be an aunt?”
Xiao Rou had a strange expression on her face. She looked at Shangguan Zhe and did not understand what he was saying.
Shangguan Zhe explained his decision in a simple manner. Her face lit up, and he was extremely excited as she quickly gestured — Really? That's great.
Shangguan Zhe saw his sister's undisguised reaction, and smiled as he looked at Shen Xiran: ”See, I'm not mistaken, right?”
Looking at Xiao Rou, she finally let go of her worries. She smiled at him, ”Then, thank you.”
Shangguan Zhe said helplessly: ”You're here again.”
Speaking of which, what she owed him was more than just just a thank you. From that time onwards, Shangguan Zhe had already helped her countless times.
She owed him a debt that he probably wouldn't be able to repay for the rest of his life.
At this time, as if Shangguan Zhe knew her thoughts, he suddenly spoke again: ”Are you ready for this matter?”
”Ready for what?” She looked at him blankly, her thoughts interrupted.
That confused look of hers was so cute that he almost wanted to pull her into his embrace and rub her. His eyes darkened, but he still maintained his calm tone: ”Are you prepared to face Si Lianye's anger? He seems to have always treated Le Le as her own son. Aren't you afraid that he will take revenge on you by doing this? ”
