The Actor’s Ex-wife

Chapter 31

Time stood still, and the breeze blew in from the window, rolling up the soft curtains in the corners, accompanied by the old man's silent sigh.

 “I can’t promise you this yet.”

Mr. Shen suddenly turned around and turned slightly away, just enough to let the sunlight outside the window shine on Jian You's face.

He looked at Jian You with firm and reluctant eyes: "You, I really like you and want you to be the daughter-in-law of the Shen family."

Jian You sighed silently in her heart, firstly because she failed to file for divorce this time, and secondly because she felt that she could not bear to let down such an old man who loved her so much.

Just when Jian You was about to say something comforting, Mr. Shen looked at Jian You and suddenly looked away. He lowered his head, unable to conceal his disappointment, but still said: "But, since you brought it up yourself, give it to me." A few days to think about it.”

At that moment, Jian You's heart suddenly contracted, as if something was broken. It was obviously an exciting answer, but she couldn't figure out why she just couldn't feel victory and joy!

But fortunately, this feeling passed quickly. Jian You breathed a sigh of relief, and her back was covered in cold sweat.

"Thank you, grandpa." She didn't know how to stay here, after all, she had just made this old man sad and embarrassed.

Mr. Shen turned his head and glanced at Jian You with a frown: "You, you look ugly. Do you want to call the doctor?"

"I...my grandpa is fine..." Jian You raised her head, made herself look more energetic, and forced out a sweet smile: "After all, you have seen worse me, haven't you?"

Mr. Shen's worried heart suddenly relaxed. Indeed, Jian You now is the best he has ever seen.

"Then I'll ask Shen Xiao to take you back." After the old man finished speaking, he called the maid and went upstairs to ask Shen Xiao to come down.

Shen Lu also went downstairs, and Jiang Meiyi walked over from the restaurant carrying a neatly arranged fruit plate.

“Are you leaving so soon? Eat some fruit before you leave?”

Jian You glanced at the fruits in the fruit plate, including mangoes, pineapples, and bananas. Beautifully cut and beautifully presented. Jian You suddenly remembered something, stood up and said to Mr. Shen: "The sugar content of these tropical fruits is too high, it is better for grandpa to eat less."

The smile on Jiang Meiyi's face froze for a moment, and then she said: "The old man has high blood sugar, so these fruits must be avoided. These are specially made for you." Jian You opened her big eyes and glanced at Jiang Meiyi's face. , also smiled at her and said: "Thank you Aunt Jiang, but you have to supervise grandpa's taboos!"

"Okay, okay, I won't eat it secretly." Mr. Shen had already eaten two pieces of pineapple while they were chatting. At this time, he lied without blushing. Jian You suddenly remembered his disappointed expression just now. , I still feel a little guilty.

“My brother put a lot of fish and meat in front of him, but he didn’t even take a bite. Grandpa is not as self-conscious as his brother.”

Shen Xiao was also very excited when he saw the fresh fruit. He wanted to take a fork to eat a piece, but Jian You said this and had to give up the idea.

"You guys go, it's been busy for a long time." Mr. Shen glanced at Jian You and saw that her face was still a little pale, so he specifically told Shen Xiao: "Send her back and let her have a good rest."

At this time, Shen Xiao also noticed that Jian You's face was very pale. Although there was a smile on her lips, she looked tired, which was very different from the sunny look on her face just now when she was holding flowers.

He subconsciously wanted to say a word of concern, but when his words came to his lips, they turned into two short words: "Let's go."

The two of them came out of the living room, and the afternoon sunlight fell sparsely on the Shen family's house. Mr. Shen has kept the entire garden full of vitality. In the sunroom not far away, white lily of the valley blooms into a sea of ​​flowers.

"Are you okay?" Shen Xiao asked her at this time.

Jian You shook her head and waited for him to go to the garage and drive the car over. The warm breeze blew by, rolling up the hem of Jian You's elegant skirt, and her long and soft hair covered half of her face. Under the sun, Jian You's eyebrows were soft, and her amber eyes were smart and moist, like a clear water, as clear as a puddle. Bottomed out.

It wasn't until the car passed by Jian You that Shen Xiao realized that he had forgotten to press the brakes. He paused for a moment, parked the car, got out of the car and opened the door for Jian You.

 “Being the co-pilot? Or...”

Before Shen Xiao finished speaking, Jian You said, "I'll sit in the back."

"It's okay in the back, the position in the back is safer." Shen Xiao didn't know why he thought of this, but after saying it, he deeply regretted it. This was undoubtedly poking at Jian You's sore spot. A car accident... she survived just because she was sitting in that position...
