Hit Love Preference (HLP) Chapter 3 Part 2 The next morning, when it was bright, Wen Ning woke up vaguely.
She doesn't have the habit of sleeping in, and her work and rest have always been very regular. A few years ago, in order to make money to cure her grandfather, she spent almost every day staying up working at four or five o'clock in the morning.
It's just that Jiang Shu was like a beast last night. It was already nine o'clock when she woke up in the morning. Although she was afraid of him, last night was the most secure night she had slept in so long. It was probably because Jiang Shu was in her room, she could feel at ease.
Jiang Shu on the bed has disappeared. Wen Ning is sitting cross legged on the sofa with a quilt in her arms. Looking at the mess in the room, she recalls her unbridled last night, and her cheeks are so hot.
After a simple grooming and habitual cleaning of the bedroom, another half hour passed.
Wen Ning goes downstairs and tries to find Jiang Shu, but she accidentally bumped into the side hall.
At the dinner table, a woman was eating breakfast, dressed in exquisite and gorgeous clothes, trying to maintain elegance in her movements, listening carefully and listening to melodious music.
Wen Ning recognizes Wang Fan, the wife sitting next to the second junior of the Jiang family at the dinner last night. According to her seniority, she should call her second sister-in-law. But when she sees such a battle, she is more or less worried about disturbing her. Wen Ning is careful not to make a sound. She turns around and just wants to leave, but is stopped.
"You don't even want to say hello when you see me. It’s because you are from the countryside. Not polite at all."
Wen Ning frowned slightly. The unkindness in the words was different from the second sister-in-law she saw in front of everyone last night. She hesitated for a second: "Good morning, sister-in-law."
"It's not early. I don't want to see what time it is. I expect us to wait for you for breakfast. The Jiang family doesn't have this habit."
Wen Ning doesn't have this habit either. She never thought that anyone would wait for her. Breakfast is optional for her. Anyway, she has been hungry for years.
"Sorry, sister-in-law. I overslept. It doesn't matter if I don't eat breakfast." Wen Ning plans to leave after she finishes.
"Hey, wait, why are you walking so fast? Hurry to complain to the old man? Don't think about it. The old man drank some wine last night and sent it to the hospital early in the morning. Why didn't Jiang Shu tell you? Also, he didn't even attend the wedding, so how could he tell you more."
Wedding is a thorn in Wen Ning's heart.
No matter how gentle the rabbit is, she always has a temper. She doesn't intend to continue to be sneered at here. She turned around and wanted to leave, but Wang Fan grabbed her wrist and pulled it back. For a moment, she loses her balance and is about to trip over the dining chair behind her.
However, the expected fall did not come. Jiang Shu came in at some time and put his hand around her waist. The little girl fell on him instantly.
The mean female voice continued: "Be careful! These tables and chairs are all carved wood from the ancient period. If they are damaged, you will pay -"
"The wood carvings of the ice age are just a place for our Jiang family to have dinner. Wen Ning, is a genuine young lady of the Jiang family, it has no problem with me even if she wants to play with it. It's you..." Jiang Shu interrupted before she finished. His voice was cold and there was no human touch. He had a thin lip and a slight hook. He smiled with contempt. "Your Chen Li can't afford that salary."
The second son of the Jiang family is Chen Li, whose surname is not Jiang but Chen. Outsiders know that he is just an adopted son. To be more accurate, it is only the child of a nanny in the Jiang family who died unexpectedly, so his son was adopted.
"Genuine young lady of the Jiang family" is undoubtedly the title that Wang Fan has always wanted but could not justify. At least in most people's minds, she, like her husband, is not recognized.
Wang Fan is most afraid of Jiang Shu. Chen Li has not been able to follow the wind and water in the circle for so many years, largely because Jiang Shu's means are cruel.
At first, she just wanted to take advantage of the fact that there was no one at home and pour her anger on Wen Ning, a little lady who was easy to bully at first sight. She didn't know that he seemed to have installed monitoring on Wen Ning and came back in such a timely manner.
Wang Fan stood up and walked in the same place in embarrassment, neither staying nor staying.
Jiang Shu took Wen Ning's hand, bowed his head as if there were no one else, and asked,
"Have you eaten?"
"What?" She didn't react.
"What would you like for breakfast?"
"No, don't bother -"
Jiang Shu was biased, but his tone was light, she could not refuse: "Would Mrs. Chen please make some famous snacks in the Hancheng city for Wen Ning to eat? I remember that you used to be a hotel waiter, so it should not be difficult to do some rough things?"
Wang Fan was so angry that the hyaluronic acid on her face was almost deformed, but it happened that the other party was Jiang Shu. She dared not complain at all. She could only watch the little sparrow in the countryside being escorted away by Jiang Shu.
Jiang Shu leads Wen Ning, his thin lips tight and silent all the way. Wenning peeps at him and dares not speak first.
Where there was no outsider, the atmosphere between the two returned to the previous state.
"Does it still hurt?" Jiang Shu suddenly asked.
Wen Ning was stunned for a moment, thinking about what he was referring to was when she hit the dining chair, she shook her head and replied. "It doesn't hurt. I didn't hit it."
Jiang Shu said, "I was talking about last night."
Wen Ning's white face turned red and she wanted to disappear: "...."
The man coughed a little and didn't continue the topic: "How did you get to the side hall?"
Chen Li's family usually go in and out of that place. Jiang Shu seldom sets foot in it. It's unlucky.
Wen Ning: "I got lost. It's too big here."
Jiang Shu almost laughed angrily. Is she a smart little fox or a fool?
"How can you be so stupid? That you can be bullied by others as soon as I'm away."
Wen Ning: "I’m sorry for troubling you."
Jiang Shu was really angry and laughed this time. He held her hand in his palm and kneaded it: "... It's a small trouble."
"You don't have to be so honest to be bullied in the future. You can talk back as you like. Someone will always give it to you."
Who? You?
Wen Ning hung her head and her palm was hot. Did he just say this to protect her? She didn't dare to think about it. She remembered what Wang Fan had just said and asked: "Is Grandpa better?"
"It’s better." Jiang Shu's tone was casual.
"He has been pretending to be ill for a day or two. He always uses this method. The doctors in my family are all under my control. I know it well. I can hang the glucose nutrient solution for fun. If I'm not angry with him, it's no big deal."
Wen Ning nodded reassuringly, "Where are you going later?"
Jiang Shu's step of going upstairs suddenly stopped. He turned his head and raised his eyebrows. He looked a little smug: "What? Are you worried about me?"
The author has something to say:
Jiang Shu: Is it still painful?
Ning Ning: It doesn't hurt much.
Jiang Shu:??? Seems like I didn't work hard enough….
Ning Ning:???!!! Don't come here!!!! Summer Cherry Blossom:
