When Song Yansheng returned, it was not yet ten o’clock at night, and Shi Nuan was still awake.
She had brought back quite a few books from school today. After tidying up, she casually flipped through a Bible her mother had left her, half the window was open, but the curtains were drawn.
The surroundings of the villa were so quiet that she could hear the sound of brakes very clearly coming from the night.
At that moment, she was half-leaning on the bed, and upon hearing the sound, she didn’t know what she was thinking, but she went to the window to check.
She pulled back a corner of the curtain and happened to see Song Yansheng getting out of the car.
He was still dressed in a dark suit, paired with a white shirt, tall and upright in stature, with an extraordinary and handsome appearance, truly a stunningly charming man.
Such a man, possessing status and wealth, yet single and rarely involved in scandals, his self-discipline really made Shi Nuan admire him.
However, she now thought that the reason for his behavior was mostly because of the woman in his heart!
The woman who, like her, also loved gardenias!
Thinking of this, Shi Nuan actually felt a bit guilty.
Although she didn’t know who that woman was or where she was now, it was true that she was occupying her man, occupying the Song Mansion that originally belonged to her.
Even though all of this was not of her own volition.
With a soft sigh, just as she was about to let go of the curtain, Song Yansheng, who was talking to a servant not far away, suddenly raised his eyes and looked towards her position.
Actually, there was quite a distance, and Shi Nuan had only lifted a very small gap in the curtain, he might not have been able to see anything, but when their eyes met, Shi Nuan was still startled, her heart skipped a beat, and she almost immediately withdrew her hand.
Her heart didn’t calm down until she returned to bed.
Shi Nuan planned to turn off the light and go to sleep, because she didn’t want the man to see the room’s light still on and cause any issues when he came upstairs.
She didn’t fear Song Yansheng, but there was a sense of apprehension, because he was someone she once regarded as an elder!
But Shi Nuan didn’t expect her actions to be much slower than Song Yansheng’s.
Just as she was about to turn off the light, there was a gentle knock on the door, followed by the man’s deep voice from outside: "Nuannuan, I’m opening the door!"
It wasn’t inquiring at all. As Shi Nuan was about to say "no," the door opened in response, and the tall man stepped inside.
The man squinted, looking at Shi Nuan on the bed. That handsome and delicate face instantly revealed a faint smile, and he asked, "Were you waiting for me?"
Shi Nuan exhaled a breath, mustered up her spirit, and called softly, "Second Uncle..."
Song Yansheng responded with a light "hmm" and walked over to her.
By then, he had already removed his suit jacket, and his white shirt paired with black trousers outlined his perfectly strong body, as he asked, "Why are you still awake so late?"
Shi Nuan said, "I was just about to sleep!"
Shi Nuan thought that upon hearing this, he would sensibly leave and not disturb her sleep.
But she underestimated Song Yansheng’s thick skin, as he had no intention of leaving, instead asking, "I heard from Aunt Hui that she brought you some milk earlier, and you didn’t drink it... why?"
Shi Nuan bit her lip.
About half an hour ago, Aunt Hui did bring her a glass of milk, but she really didn’t feel like drinking it at the time, so she asked Aunt Hui to take it back down.
Could it be that this man had come just to ask about this?
