“Zhongcheng, stop playing around. Come, tell Mom Tang, how are they getting along?”
“Pretty good. They’re inseparable, always sneaking out for afternoon tea. Right now they’re probably out drinking tea.” He sat there, left behind to command.
“Isn’t Susu afraid of the young master anymore? How could she change so much? Could it be she suddenly realized after seeing the divorce agreement—um, no, that’s unlikely. Susu doesn’t care much about material life.”
“I don’t know how it became like this, but they’re getting along very well. I—oh? They’re back.” Shi Zhongcheng pointed towards the elevator, drawing the attention of the other two, who stretched their necks to look.
At the elevator, Xiao Susu, holding a bouquet of lilies, was nestled in Tang Hua’s arms, laughing happily, unaware of her husband’s somewhat displeased expression.
“You’re back?” Shi Zhongcheng lazily called out, walking closer.
“Mr. Shi, someone gave me flowers.” Having been going back and forth to the company recently and having more opportunities to get familiar with Shi Zhongcheng, she had recently added him to her list of “people she’s not afraid of”.
“I know, it was Young Master Tang who gave them.” Despite his large build, he could make her feel at ease, mainly because he would never come within three steps of her, creating no sense of pressure.
“No.” She shook her head. “It was the flower shop owner who gave them to me. Tang Hua wanted to pay him, but he refused.”
Tang Hua curled his lips: “I’ll have my secretary put them in a vase. Be careful, holding them too long might cause an allergic reaction to the flower fragrance.”
“Okay.” She nodded happily, letting him take the flowers.
“Why would the shop owner give you flowers? Sister-in-law?”
“We went for tea, and after that, when we went out, we met someone coming out of the flower shop across the street, who put the flowers in my hand. Aren’t they beautiful?”
“Weren’t you scared?”
“Tang Hua was standing beside me, so I’m not afraid.” She felt her courage growing, and Tang Hua was so good to her that she knew with him around, she didn’t need to be afraid of anything.
