Ye Shu left Grandma’s room and found that Bai Yueru had already gone with the butler to discuss important matters, while Sheng Shaochen stood outside with his hands in his pockets, looking strikingly handsome as he waited for her.
Seeing her come out, the big BOSS walked over and wrapped his arms around her slender waist, "What did Grandma tell you?"
Ye Shu said, "She didn’t say much, just that the election for Smart Girl Class Leader is very important for me and Han Ruixin. Actually, I never thought about running for anything. By the way, you just decided to keep me at home and not let me act without my consent. Aren’t you being too overbearing?"
"Is it so bad to be taken care of and live a life of luxury?" Sheng Shaochen kissed her forehead, "Or how about you take care of me and I’ll be your canary?"
"Great, let’s switch genders. When we get back, I’ll heat up scissors and snip you!" As Ye Shu was speaking, she suddenly heard someone calling from behind, "Brother Chen."
Sheng Shaochen paused, turned around, and saw Han Ruixin and Mrs. Han approaching.
"I’m leaving." Ye Shu really couldn’t stand the sight of the Han mother and daughter. If it wasn’t for Mr. Sheng wanting to extract clues about the assassin organization from them, she wouldn’t let him have anything to do with those two women.
But Sheng Shaochen grabbed her arm, not letting her go, instead pulling her closer into his embrace.
When Han Ruixin saw how intimate Sheng Shaochen and Ye Shu were, her face turned sad, but she still asked, "Brother Chen, I might be able to have the second stage of surgery on my leg soon. Can you be with me?"
"Yes, yes, Shaochen, the last time was successful because of your company during the surgery. Could you possibly..."
Ye Shu thought that Sheng Shaochen would eventually give in out of sympathy, but at that moment, she heard two words: "I cannot!"
The three women were all stunned. When Ye Shu heard those two words "I cannot" coming from her Mr. Sheng’s mouth, she felt an inexplicable admiration welling up from the bottom of her heart. If it weren’t for being in public, she would have thrown herself at him and kissed him on the spot!
What she hated the most was men’s indecision about relationships. This time, her Mr. Sheng’s performance was truly splendid!
However, after hearing Sheng Shaochen say "I cannot," tears instantly welled up in Han Ruixin’s eyes, "Brother Chen, I’ve given up hope of being with you, but you promised me, you said you’d be with me for the second surgery, why now..."
Mrs. Han couldn’t help complaining on the spot, "Shaochen, how could you, no matter what, our Ruxin saved your life twice, she escaped death twice for you. You’ve already betrayed her feelings, and now, you’re also breaking your promise?"
As she spoke, Mrs. Han broke into tears, "Oh, heavens, why is our Ruxin’s life so hard..."
"Enough!" Sheng Shaochen interjected, "All of this, you’ve brought upon yourselves. I’ve told you to leave Jin City and go back to Han City, but you moved directly into the Old Mansion instead. If anyone is breaking their promises, it’s the result of your own obstinacy. But rest assured, on the day of the surgery, I’ll send someone to keep you company in my stead."
"Brother Chen, your heart is so cruel!" After saying that, Han Ruixin turned and ran away in tears.
"Daughter, wait for Mommy!" Mrs. Han glared at Ye Shu and had no choice but to chase after her daughter.
