Only married but not in love: Ex-wife, see you tonight!

Chapter 39 Unwelcome Family Gatherings

"I do not have……"

"Oh? Isn't it a meeting of friends? Could it be that you two are dating, as the newspaper said?"

Gu Shi squinted at the embarrassed Ruan Anxi, and didn't give her a chance to turn around, but the old lady who had been silent all this time patted the back of Ruan Anxi's hand suddenly: "Xiaoxi, what are they talking about? On a date?"

Meeting the old lady's eyes looking at her, Ruan Anxi felt that this photo had become such a troublesome existence for the first time.

She didn't know who was responsible for the old lady's kindness to her, but on the one hand, she didn't want to get involved with Shi Yan, and on the other hand, she was greedy for the warmth that the old lady brought her.

The warmth radiating from the palm resting on her hand made people feel so comfortable, Ruan Anxi's eyes gradually deepened, and finally she couldn't hold it back: "I didn't talk about dating, Xiaoshi was just joking."

Before the old lady could speak, Gu Shi had already picked it up: "So sister An Xi and Mr. Pei are just friends?"

In fact, the two were really just friends meeting, but now that Gu Shi said it, it always makes people feel that it is just an excuse.

Ruan Anxi's explanation was stuck in her throat, but Gu Shi didn't intend to let her go like this: "Speaking of which, Sister An Xi seems to have a good relationship with Mr. Pei's family. I heard that Sister An Xi had a good relationship with Mr. Pei at the last reception. Wearing his coat, it seems Mr. Pei is very concerned about you."

The conflict at the reception a long time ago was revealed again, but Ruan Anxi couldn't refute this point. Gu Shi's words were mixed with truth and falsehood, and now she has completely lost the opportunity to explain the photo.

Mrs. Shi didn't have a good impression of Ruan Anxi at all, and her face became even more ugly when she heard this: "Since we have such a good relationship with the Pei family, why did Miss Ruan come to our place today?"

"I...I didn't..."

Mrs. Shi's malice was too obvious, and this matter was very complicated, Ruan Anxi didn't know how to answer for a while.

That she and Pei Jingchen are just friends?Let's not talk about whether Mrs. Shi will believe it. After all, she is the one who was brought home by Shi Yan for the Mid-Autumn Festival. No matter what the real relationship between the two of them is, this identity alone determines that she cannot have such a close relationship with Pei Jingchen. "friend"!
But if it's not a friend, how should Pei Jingchen's identity be defined?

However, before she could figure it out, the old lady quit: "What serious crime did Xiaoxi commit? Why talk about it if you have something to say?"

Mrs. Shi's anger was suppressed by the old lady's words, and she felt a suffocating chest pain. Seeing this, Gu Shi hurriedly said: "Mom, don't be angry, others don't care about reputation, why are you worrying about her, right? "

Although she already knew that tonight would not be easy, Ruan Anxi never thought that she would be troubled by this when she just entered the door. But Shiyan didn't say a word, and only left her to look at Mrs. Shi's eyes for a while, which was extremely embarrassing. He opened his mouth: "Xiaoxi, help me to the room."

Ruan Anxi hurriedly helped the old lady up when she heard the words, but Madam Shi still wanted to stop her, but the old lady snorted and stopped her: "I don't care what you think, Xiaoxi is my guest!"

Leaving this sentence behind, the old lady grabbed Ruan Anxi's hand and was about to take her upstairs. Looking at the old man who was only protecting her, and thinking about someone who hadn't expressed his opinion after entering the door, Ruan Anxi felt extremely sour.

Seeing Mrs. Shi's eyes full of ruthlessness, but she was suppressed by the old lady's words, Gu Shi, who had finally made Ruan Anxi ugly in front of everyone, was of course unwilling to let it go, and turned her eyes directly to Shi Yan: " Brother, sister An Xi was brought by you, you should be clear about this, right?"

When Shi Yan heard the sound, he glanced at Gu Shi, his gaze was unclear, but Gu Shi suddenly felt his back go cold, and immediately said: "I was wrong, I was wrong, brother, you probably don't know much about sister An Xi's private life, right?" hehe……"

Mrs. Shi was already suppressing the fire, but when she saw that Gu Shi was slackened by Shi Yan, she immediately turned the blame: "Why, do you not understand, or do you want to hide it for others?"

Before Shi Yan could speak, Gu Shi had already opened his mouth to answer: "Sister An Xi and my brother have nothing to do with each other for a long time. My brother is so busy, so of course he won't know about other people's private lives, right?"

Mrs. Shi was also stunned by anger for a moment, and it should be taken for granted that the current Ruan Anxi is equal to her four years ago. She always thought that Shi Yan was in control of everything about her, and she only reacted after being reminded now. Today is different from the past, but I still can't help but glared at my son—look, take him home without knowing what's going on!
Then he turned his gaze back to Ruan Anxi who hadn't gone far, but said to the old lady: "Mom, Miss Ruan is not your granddaughter-in-law now, I'm afraid your kindness is just to feed the dog." !"

What Gu Shi wanted was such an effect, and she naturally chimed in when she heard the words: "That's right, I don't know what some people think, it doesn't matter a long time ago, and you can still come to the door with the cheek, why don't you cultivate with your new love when you have this time?" Cultivate feelings..."

"enough."

A sudden voice interrupted Gu Shi's words, and several people followed the prestige, only to see Shi Yan who had been expressionless just now, and his face darkened at some point.

Seeing that several people were silent, his eyes slowly slid to Gu Shi. There was no emotion in his voice, but it inexplicably made people's backs shudder: "If you don't care about other people's business, just leave it alone."

The meaning is obvious, I didn't say a few words about Ruan Anxi, where do you have the right to teach her a lesson?

Mrs. Shi is an elder, so it's fine to just say a few words about the facts, why the two of them insist on bringing Pei Jingchen together, and the more they talk, the more energetic they become?

It's because Ruan Anxi might not make up his mind to leave him, right?
Unexpectedly, Shi Yan would suddenly speak for Ruan Anxi, and Gu Shi's face suddenly became a little ugly: "I'm just afraid that you will be fooled by others, brother, why are you so fierce..."

Under Shi Yan's gaze, the following words gradually fell silent, Gu Shi bit her lower lip unwillingly, but after all, she still didn't dare to say more.

Mrs. Shi was dissatisfied: "Your sister is also doing it for your own good. Why don't others tell her what she did?"

Shi Yan didn't speak, but the meaning in his expression was already very obvious - I said yes, others shut up.

Although I don't know what my son thinks, but after all, I grew up watching Shi Yan from a young age. Just looking at his tight lips now, my wife knew that he was angry at the moment, and immediately changed the subject with a haha: "Okay, okay! The soup will be ready soon, Xiaoshi will call your father to come down for dinner."

Although she ignored the matter on the surface, Mrs. Shi secretly made up her mind that she must try her best to bring Ruan Anxi and Mr. Pei together.

After all, I absolutely don't want this broom star to come back and harm the Shi family!
Shi Zhongxun didn't react too much to Ruan Anxi's arrival, which made Ruan Anxi heave a sigh of relief, and after a long while of persuasion, the old lady gave up the idea of ​​pulling her to sit in the main seat, and minimized the sense of presence. To the last seat.

Who knew that Shi Yan didn't agree with her, Ruan Anxi didn't sit on the stool when he heard his voice behind him: "I'm sitting in the wrong seat."

Now even Shi Zhongxun couldn't help but look over, after all, why did the eldest son of the Shi family care about where other people sat?
Shi Yan didn't seem to notice the gazes of the people at the table at all, he just watched Ruan Anxi stiffly move to the side of his seat, and then sat down.

The old lady was the only one at the table who was very happy: "Oh, Xiaoyan finally knows how to love others, that's really good."

A few people basically didn't know how to eat a meal. Fortunately, the old lady had limited energy after all, but she went back to her room early at eight o'clock. After Ruan Anxi helped the old lady settle down and then returned to the dining table, Madam Shi said: "I heard That girl is still studying at Cambridge, this time she came back during the vacation, Xiao Yan, when do you think you have time to meet someone?"

Before Ruan Anxi realized where the topic was going, Shi Yan said impatiently: "It's not necessary."

Madam Shi's smile froze when she refused without hesitation: "It's just a meeting, the girl is talented and good-looking, maybe she doesn't like you."

This time Shi Yan's answer was more clear: "No."

This time when I came home, Yan Mingli had been talking for Ruan Anxi in secret. Mrs. Shi was already dissatisfied, but now she was rejected twice in a row, and her face instantly turned ugly: "You said it lightly! People in their thirties are still in the dark now." If you can't stabilize, what do you want? Can you live with a dirty woman for the rest of your life?"

Shi Yan didn't answer the conversation this time, but just looked behind her. Mrs. Shi subconsciously turned around to look, and saw the person standing at the stairs, apparently listening to her words verbatim just now.

There is some embarrassment behind talking about people, but Mrs. Shi is in a bad mood at the moment, so naturally she didn't apologize, she just turned her head and calmed down a little: "I've already made an agreement with him, this time you can do it if you want to." You have to go, you have to go if you don’t want to!"

It was only then that Ruan Anxi realized that Shi Yan was going on a blind date. Her first reaction was not to know how the client felt, but to subconsciously glance at Gu Shi.

Sure enough, although Gu Shi still had a smile on her face, anyone with a discerning eye could tell that she was not in a good mood.

In fact, it's not just Gu Shi, her own mood at the moment is very delicate, thinking that if Shi Yan goes on a blind date, she probably won't have time to take care of herself, so maybe she can secretly visit Xiao Bei; Thinking that Mrs. Shi said these things without shy away from herself, as expected, in the other party's heart, she was no longer the daughter-in-law of the Shi family.

But what I think about the most is that Shi Yan is really so good, how many talented and beautiful girls are rushing to post, and she is a single mother who doesn't have a serious job, and her competitiveness is probably negative.

No matter what capacity she is staying next to Shi Yan, the relationship between the two of them has always been maintained by each other alone, as long as Shi Yan seems to be loosening a little bit, she has no room to refute.
