Song Yansheng responded, asking the servant to call Aunt Hui to see if the car was ready.
The servant acknowledged and withdrew.
Shi Nuan stood silently on one side.
The Song Mansion was quite remote, with no neighbors around, so naturally, it was difficult to get a cab.
Having him arrange for a car to take her was certainly for the best!
After a while, Aunt Hui came over, her steps hurried, and said, "Mr., I’m sorry, Old Zhang had to go out for something this noon, so there’s no driver at home for the moment..."
Song Yansheng raised his eyebrows, looking at Shi Nuan.
Shi Nuan was a bit stunned; no driver? How could that be!
But she absolutely had to go to school this afternoon.
Shi Nuan said, "I’ll call a taxi to come over!"
Just as she was about to take out her phone, Song Yansheng stood up and said, "The location here at the Song Mansion is quite remote, it would take time for a taxi driver to get here... How about this, give me a moment, I’ll go upstairs and change clothes, and personally take you over!"
Shi Nuan wanted to refuse, but before she could say anything, Song Yansheng added, "I’ve been on vacation these few days, and I don’t have anything important to do this afternoon, I kind of want to go out for a while, no need to be so polite with me!"
With that, Shi Nuan said no more and nodded, "Thank you, Second Uncle!"
This call of "Second Uncle" was different from just now, and the servants in the living room all heard it, but no one dared to say anything.
The family servants were all aware of the relationship between Shi Nuan and Song Yichuan, after all, the engagement three years ago was held with great fanfare, and even reported in the newspapers...
Shi Nuan waited on the downstairs sofa while Song Yansheng went upstairs.
His actions were quicker than Shi Nuan had imagined, after about a few minutes, he came down dressed in a casual shirt paired with black trousers.
He had car keys in hand, and was wearing a watch and carrying his phone.
Shi Nuan stood up, Song Yansheng came downstairs and said to her, "Let’s go!"
The two went out, Aunt Hui and the servants escorted them to the door.
Later, Song Yansheng fetched the car from the garage and drove it directly in front of Shi Nuan, opening the passenger side door.
Shi Nuan got in the car, took a seat, and fastened her seatbelt actively.
There were too many intimate actions of men fastening seatbelts for women in movies and TV shows; Shi Nuan didn’t want it to happen between her and Song Yansheng.
The car started and drove along the broad road inside the Song Mansion toward the gate.
Aunt Hui watched the car go far away before dismissing a few servants behind her.
However, she didn’t leave immediately but continued to gaze in the direction where the car had departed.
Mr. was serious this time; it seems he truly intends to marry Miss Shi Nuan!
But if that’s the case, what about Miss Chu Jingyun?
The journey for Shi Nuan and Song Yansheng was mostly silent, although Song Yansheng did ask Shi Nuan a few questions, to which she replied simply.
Song Yansheng felt that ever since Song Yichuan passed away, Shi Nuan’s demeanor became more tranquil than before.
She had shut herself off, both in body and in heart.
So in the future, would it become incredibly difficult if he wanted to open her up?
Later, they reached a crossroad, the light turned red, and the car stopped. Song Yansheng took out a cigarette and asked Shi Nuan if it was okay to smoke.
Shi Nuan nodded and said, "It’s fine!"
Song Yansheng lit the cigarette, the milky white smoke drifting away from his handsome features.
He gazed ahead, squinting his eyes, and spoke in a gentle tone, "Nuannuan, you know? Looking at you now always reminds me of myself fifteen years ago!"
