那天晚上的小聚会结束后,昭南没有照常,送她回家.
"赵南,你今晚不是要回家里吗?"荣爷爷感觉好些了吗?
赵南没有送她回家,因为他要去接人,没有时间.
"他好多了,"他停顿了一会儿,然后问道,"你还住在家里吗?
"是的,爷爷很快就要出院了.妈妈让我多待一会儿,直到他回家.
顾枫想继续和他说话,还在想着晚上早些时候的戏弄.
"赵南,你家有没有为你介绍过什么潜在的合作伙伴?"我听说杜阿姨的姐姐和表哥窦婆都回城了.
"他们过几天就会走了.你看到斗破了吗?
"我做到了.他和以前一样..."
就在这时,赵南的电话响了.
是沈明打来的电话.
"我会接这个电话.你上车.
司机问顾峰要不要来.她坐在车里,看着赵南走出去接电话,聊了好几分钟.
"等一下."
当赵南打完电话回到自己的车上时,坐在自己车里的顾峰大声喊了他一声.
"赵南!"
昭南转过身来,顾风挥了挥手.
"再见,赵南!"
昭南去见顾枫,但沈明并不知道,尽管她注意到他身上有一股淡淡的,熟悉的高档香水香味.
她比任何人都熟悉香水.
她不假思索地问道:"你见过顾风,不是吗?我能闻到一股可怕的气味.
昭南闻了闻他的西装,却没闻到什么味道.然后他走近并拥抱了她.
"我怎么了?我们每周只见面一次,你已经知道了.
沈明顿时心烦意乱.
她把他推开.
他确实见过顾风.
她站在那里,眼中带着愤怒的眼神瞪着他.
她一言不发,把他推到一边,转身离开.
司机和助手还在前面等着,她朝相反的方向走去,步伐很快.以他的速度,他无法追上.
昭南站着不动,摇头时露出一丝微笑,表示理解.
对她来说,像魏冷这样脾气不好的人,跟他没什么区别.他们都来自同一个模具.
他没有追她,而是上了车,让司机带他回屋.
他们进行了一场无言的冷酷争论,两人都不愿意让步.
两天过去了,沈明在办公室收到了一大束鲜花.
当着卓航的面,她把花直接扔进了垃圾桶.
卓航吓了一跳.
He returned to tell their boss, Rong Zhaonan, about it.
"Mr. Rong, what's going on with you and Miss Shen? She was so upset that she wouldn't get in your car that night, and today, she threw the flowers straight into the trash. I don't dare to relay any more messages. You should send Xiao Ming instead."
Rong Zhaonan took off his cufflinks.
"What did she say?"
"She didn't say anything. She seemed to be called back."
"Called back where?" Zhaonan seemed to know.
"To the family home. I saw Mr. Su's car picking her up."
"Ah, she should go back. Grandpa Su is being discharged today. In a couple of days, send her another bouquet."
Zhuo Hang didn't want to be the one to handle such troublesome tasks.
At the Su Family's Home
This was the second time the entire Su family gathered at the family home since Shen Ming's first return.
The reason? Grandpa Su was being discharged from the hospital.
Grandpa was in good health, walking with energy.
The whole family gathered, and the atmosphere was grand.
A group of people surrounded Grandpa Su, and Shen Ming didn't want to join in the crowd. She stayed behind Su Yuyan, not speaking much.
It was her distant aunt-in-law who noticed her silence.
"Shen Ming, what's going on? You're not talking much today. You look like you've lost all your energy. Is it because of what happened last time?"
Everyone knew that when Shen Ming first arrived, she had a proud and confident air.
Today, she looked like a completely different person.
Jin Yunxiu couldn't resist making a comment.
"Aunt, why are you being so hard on your daughter? You know Shen Ming didn't grow up with us in the Su family, so we're not as close. But you're still making things difficult for her. I think you need to pay more attention to how you discipline your children."
Su Shangjin hurriedly pulled his mother's arm.
"Please, let's not do this now. Can't we discuss this at home?"
Jin Yunxiu shrugged off his hand and looked at Su Ning with a provoking glance.
Shen Ming noticed this and smiled lightly, which caught Su Ning's attention.
Shen Ming's expression quickly changed as she turned away from Su Ning's gaze. She walked ahead with Su Yuyan and entered the house.
Inside, the family gathered around Grandpa Su, and Gu Feng was also there.
The old man, stubborn as ever, leaned on his cane and tapped it on the ground.
"Where are Xiao San and his siblings?"
Shen Ming followed Su Yuyan into the room.
Among the Su family, she was closest to Grandpa Su.
Seeing him in such good health, she felt a wave of relief.
She walked over and greeted him warmly.
"Grandpa."
Her voice caused Su Yuyan to glance at her in surprise.
He didn't expect her to be so obedient.
Grandpa Su smiled with joy, his eyes filled with affection as he looked at Shen Ming.
"Good, you've got the Su family's temperament, just like your grandmother."
Grandpa was happy, and so was the whole family.
They all sat down for a loud, lively meal, and Shen Ming received a big red envelope.
After the meal, as people started to leave, Grandpa's expression changed. He asked everyone from Su Ning's side to stay and then called Su Ning to the study room.
The servants overheard and could tell the two of them were arguing.
A few minutes later, a servant came down and asked Shen Ming to come upstairs.
"Miss Shen, Grandpa has asked for you."
