Biting the red lips

Chapter 15 He admits defeat
Aunt Zhou chatted with her for a while longer before turning and leaving. Sheng Wan stayed where she was, thinking about the complex information she had just obtained.

Although Xia Huaichen's expression of his inner thoughts made Sheng Wan uncomfortable, she also figured it out.

When he heard the news that Luo Xin was coming back, Xia Huaichen suddenly became unpleasant, and his methods of dealing with her were extremely childish.

Although he has already taken on the important responsibility of taking care of the family, he seems to have been living in the year when his parents met with something unexpected.

The corners of Sheng Wan's mouth slowly raised. The effect of today's drama was beyond her expectation.

Aunt Zhou walked out of the room and went directly upstairs.

The door to the master bedroom was ajar, and she was about to knock on the door.

Xia Huaichen was sitting on the sofa, reading some news on his mobile phone.

"You know what's wrong?"

Hearing footsteps, he mistakenly thought it was Sheng Wan coming up.

Seeing his cold tone, Aunt Zhou couldn't help but sigh: "I don't know what you are thinking. I think Miss Sheng is very good. At least she is sincere to you."

"Sincerely?"

Aunt Zhou was helpless: "Okay, I'm on her side. Since you think she's not good, I think you should send her away quickly, so you don't have to watch you quarreling every day."

Xia Huaichen rubbed the bridge of his nose impatiently: "You don't need to say more. She is not that simple. She is not worthy of being the mistress of the Gu family. But for the sake of the Shengs and his wife, I will not ignore her."

"Then why did sir only provide her with a nanny's room to live in?"

Aunt Zhou asked, "I can coax him this time, but I'm not sure next time."

Hearing this, Xia Huaichen frowned: "Don't worry, she won't leave that easily."

Aunt Zhou sighed, turned and left.

The next day was another sunny day.

Sheng Wan rubbed her sleepy eyes and woke up from her sleep.

Xu got a lot of information from Aunt Zhou last night. She slept much more soundly than the previous few days. It was a good night's sleep.

After washing up in the bathroom that came with the room, Sheng Wan sat down on the bedside, thinking about something in her mind.

There was a lot of trouble last night, but the results were pretty good, and everything was going in the direction she expected.

In this case, should she take the initiative to show her kindness and break the deadlock?
After all, it's not a problem to remain in such a stalemate.

Gu Huaichen, that tyrant, was used to being domineering.

It is better to hope that the sow can climb the tree than to hope that his conscience will find out and take the initiative to step down for him!

Sheng Wan bit her lip, feeling a little confused.

Suddenly there was a knock on the door.

"Miss Sheng, are you up?" Aunt Zhou's voice came from outside the door.

Sheng Wan came to her senses and quickly stood up to open the door, "Aunt Zhou, why are you here?"

"There are several bottles of date honey in the kitchen cabinet. You young girls are particular about beauty and beauty. I specially made a cup of honey water and brought it to you."

Only then did Sheng Wan see the honey lemonade in her hand, and couldn't help but feel a little moved: "Aunt Zhou, you are so kind to me. I can do these things myself, why am I bothering you?"

Before Sheng Wan approached Gu Huaichen, she deliberately collected all the information related to him, knowing that Aunt Zhou in front of her was not just a nanny.

After something happened to Mr. Gu and his wife, Gu Huaichen said that he was raised in the Luo family, but in fact it was Aunt Zhou who took good care of them.

Therefore, Aunt Zhou has a very high status in Gu Huaichen's heart and has always been treated as a respected elder by him.

Sheng Wan is a smart person, so naturally he won't argue with her. He is always polite and respectful.

"You are Xiaochen's wife. I love Xiaochen, and naturally I care about you too. Stop saying such disrespectful words." Aunt Zhou smiled and waved her hand.

She paused, looked at Sheng Wan sincerely, and said earnestly: "Miss Sheng, even if a couple quarrels at the end of the bed, someone has to take the first step. Xiao Chen is such a hot-tempered kid, and he had a fight with her at the critical moment. "The gourd is no different." "He is in the restaurant now, not eating breakfast, as if he is waiting for you. I know you are a good girl with a clear mind, why don't you give him this opportunity?"

Sheng Wan was not stupid and knew that Aunt Zhou was trying to smooth things over in order to ease the relationship between her and Gu Huaichen.

She was originally hesitant about whether to take the initiative to show her kindness, but now she doesn't have to worry about it.

Forget it, let’s find a way down by ourselves.

Sheng Wan never liked to be coy, so after thinking clearly, she immediately drank the glass of honey water and left the room to go to the restaurant.

After arriving at the restaurant, Gu Huaichen did as Aunt Zhou said, sitting there with a cold face and saying nothing. The newspaper in his hand had not been turned for a long time, and the rich breakfast in front of him had not been touched.

Even when he found Sheng Wan coming, he kept his airs and did not take the initiative to speak.

Like an old man!

Sheng Wan curled her lips, feeling a little unhappy.

She can take the initiative to come over, which is enough to give him face. Why should she lower her body to coax him?
Just dreaming!
Adhering to the principle of being immovable until the enemy does not move, Sheng Wan did not say a word.

She walked over expressionlessly, pulled out the chair and sat down opposite Gu Huaichen, picked up a hard-boiled egg, knocked it on the corner of the table, and started peeling it slowly.

Gu Huaichen put down the newspaper in his hand and glanced at her. Seeing that she was still indifferent, his falcon-like black eyes suddenly filled with dangerous light.

Sheng Wan didn't care about him, just enjoying herself.

Neither of them spoke, and the atmosphere in the restaurant was a little awkward for a while.

Gu Huaichen touched his cheek with the tip of his tongue. He thought about what Aunt Zhou said last night. After thinking about it for a while, he finally lost the battle and took the initiative to break the deadlock.

"There is an auction next week. You should prepare in advance and come with me then."

Sheng Wan curled her lips, a trace of pride flashed in her eyes.

If I ask you to pretend, you still have to do it yourself.

But Sheng Wan always did a complete show, so she covered her mouth and said "Oh," and pretended to refuse: "Let's forget it. I'm not used to looking at you. If it disturbs your enjoyment, you will blame me again."

Gu Huaichen looked at her pretentious appearance and was amused.

"You really don't want to go?" He looked at her leisurely and pointedly said, "I heard that this is a jewelry auction. I looked at the list. There are several red and sapphire items in good condition, but some are in good condition. Complement you."

"Oh, really."

Sheng Wan understood what he meant, and continued to eat breakfast slowly with a calm expression on her face.

She refused to accept the move and waited to see how he would continue.

"You..." Gu Huaichen choked on her and gritted his teeth in anger.

He thought that the meaning of his words was obvious enough, but she just refused to answer his questions and left him to perform a one-man show.

Tsk...this annoying little goblin.

"I'm going to the company, over there for the auction. Remember to prepare in advance."

Gu Huaichen felt a little unable to get off the stage, loosened his tie, said something unquestionable on the spot, then stood up and strode away.

"Xiao Chen's awkward temper has not changed since he was a child. Miss Sheng has done well, so you must treat him like this."

Aunt Zhou witnessed the entire confrontation between the two and couldn't help but joke.

Thinking of how Gu Huaichen couldn't get off just now, Sheng Wan couldn't help but laugh: "Aunt Zhou, you are right, he is just awkward and deserves to be defeated."

Aunt Zhou also smiled, with a caring and comforting look on her face: "Hey, seeing you husband and wife harmonious, my heart also feels at ease."

Husband and wife harmony?

She and Gu Huaichen were just having fun, there was no harmony between husband and wife!
