Chapter 110
Speech that cuts off the beginning and ends.
It was unclear whether the old man was responding to the butler, or just casually mentioning it unconsciously.
Simply at this time, there was no one else in the room except the housekeeper and the old man.
But even so, it was enough to shock the butler.
after all……
For the matter of the second wife having a daughter before marriage.
The old man is still unwilling to admit this second daughter-in-law.
Even though he almost passed away, he didn't let the second daughter-in-law go back to China.
Before, Ms. Jiang admitted that she had a pair of children.
He took it for granted that it would be impossible for Miss Jiang to marry into the Shao family.
But the old man's attitude now made all his previous beliefs less certain.
The butler subconsciously glanced at the old man, wondering what he meant by saying this?
However, the old man had already closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep...
The butler had no choice but to suppress his curiosity and quietly left the room.
……
In the quiet corridor, the two walked side by side.
A long silence spread between each other, and neither of the two of them spoke first.
Until Shao Zhanlin took the initiative to ask:
"How is grandpa doing?"
The man's voice was steady, but there was an unmistakable concern between the lines.
Jiang Nuantang knew everything about the patient's situation.
She pursed her lower lip lightly and said truthfully:
"The old man's body is recovering very well. He can walk on the ground in just two days."
After a pause, Jiang Nuantang added another sentence:
"If nothing else, another week will be the same as before."
I heard that everything about the old man is going in a good direction.
Shao Zhanlin's furrowed eyebrows eased a lot.
"That's good."
Shao Zhanlin nodded and said nothing.
There was a long silence between the two of them again.
At the door, Jiang Nuantang stopped and said to Shao Zhanlin:
"Thank you Mr. Shao, just send it here."
Jiang Nuantang thanked him politely, but Shao Zhanlin raised his eyebrows in confusion:
"Sent here? Are you going to walk back?"
walk back?
Why go back?
Subconsciously, Jiang Nuantang felt something was wrong, but she couldn't tell what was wrong.
Slightly furrowing her eyebrows, she lightly parted her cherry lips and said:
"No, I took a taxi and asked the driver to wait for me outside..."
He thought Shao Zhanlin didn't see her car, so he misunderstood.
Jiang Nuantang explained a few more words, but in the end he heard:
"You mean the white car at the door? I let him go back first."
Shao Zhanlin's voice was light, as if he was discussing the weather.
Hearing it in Jiang Nuantang's ears, the pot exploded!
"What did you say?"
Jiang Nuantang raised her head suddenly, and looked at the tall man in front of her, shocked:
"You let him go back first?"
"Ah."
Shao Zhanlin responded lightly.
Even if she got an affirmative answer, Jiang Nuantang still didn't want to believe it.
She hurried outside.
Sure enough, I saw the place where I got off the car just now under the steps.
The white taxi that was supposed to wait for her had disappeared.
In its place was a low-luxury Maybach.
"why?"
Jiang Nuantang's eyes darkened. She looked at Shao Zhanlin, but she still didn't understand, but she saw that the other party said righteously:
"It's getting late, and his relatives should be waiting for him to come home."
what about me?
Jiang Nuantang protested in her heart, she also paid for it!
Why are you stuck here and controlled by others just because of his words?
Jiang Nuantang was full of indignation, wishing to scold Shao Zhanlin, but when the words came to his lips, they became:
"Really? Mr. Shao is really kind."
Jiang Nuantang squeezed out a word of praise from between her teeth.
If it wasn't for the fact that she really couldn't afford to offend the person in front of her, she would have gone berserk long ago...
"Kindness is a virtue."
Shao Zhanlin accepted Jiang Nuantang's compliment frankly, and walked to the car first.
Pulling out the driver's seat and sitting on it, he said generously to Jiang Nuantang who was standing on the steps:
"Let's go! I'll take you back."
"Don't bother Mr. Shao."
Jiang Nuantang stood there with a cold face and did not move, weighing in her heart whether to find someone to pick her up.
It's better to go back and ask the housekeeper to arrange a driver for her.
Shao Zhanlin, who was rejected, was not annoyed, and said calmly:
"I drove your driver away, so naturally I have to pay you one."
you know too?
Jiang Nuantang glared at the culprit, secretly slandering her inwardly.
When Shao Zhanlin received her gaze, he was not annoyed. He patted the passenger seat and urged:
"boarding."
The night drew on and the sky darkened.
In the evening wind, only the dim street lamps and elongated shadows complemented Jiang Nuantang.
Jiang Nuantang thought about it, and felt that it was impractical to find someone to pick him up, and he didn't want to bother the housekeeper.
Since there are people rushing to work as free labor, why not do it?
Jiang Nuantang frowned, remained silent for a while, and finally walked down the stairs.
Walk to the car, open the door, and sit on it:
"Dijing Lanting, thank you!"
Report the location when you get in the car.
Since he wanted to be the driver, she naturally had to do what a passenger should do.
Shao Zhanlin raised his eyebrows, but didn't say anything.
After she fastened her seat belt, she started the engine and drove forward.
Speechless all the way.
Looking at Shao Zhanlin who was concentrating on driving in the driver's seat, Jiang Nuantang was a little puzzled.
The man tried his best to let the driver who was waiting for her go first.
Is it possible to send her home?
Always felt unlikely.
But seeing that the other party did nothing other than that.
Jiang Nuantang had to admit again that she was overthinking.
……
Emperor Jinglan Court.
As soon as the car stopped, Jiang Nuantang unbuckled his seat belt.
Thank you to the dedicated drivers along the way:
"Thank you for sending me back, it's getting late, you should go back soon!"
After finishing the polite words, Jiang Nuantang was about to get out of the car.
I don't want to just put my hand on the doorknob.
I heard the sound of the central locking system falling.
"and many more."
