Chapter 154: Testing

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

After a long day, Yuan Shu really didnt have any energy left. After she took a hot shower, she fell asleep, but before she fell asleep, she didnt forget to lock the door.

Although she was already very tired, at seven oclock the next morning, she got up from bed on time to do her daily morning training.

She went downstairs to the hall, but she didnt see s.h.i.+ Lu, who was usually waiting for her. Wu Yan was watering the flowers and plants in the living room.

Yuan Shu asked Wu Yan, Why dont I see s.h.i.+ Lu?

Wu Yan replied respectfully, Second Young Master said that the ancestral home is too big, so he returned to the villa to stay for a few days.

Yuan Shu was speechless. What did he mean by the ancestral home being too big? He had been living there for more than a month, but he didnt mind that the room was too big at that time, but he hid the moment s.h.i.+ Xiao returned. There was something off with him.

As Yuan Shu was thinking about it, the culprit had already gone downstairs.

Morning. s.h.i.+ Xiao was still on the steps. He was wearing a dark blue s.h.i.+rt, suit pants, and leather shoes. Yuan Shu estimated that this person was at least 1.9 meters tall.

s.h.i.+ Xiaos leather shoes stepped on the pure wool carpet without making any sound as he walked behind Yuan Shu silently. His lips were curled up slightly, and his eyes were expressionless. He was clearly greeting her, but he looked at her as if she was a stranger.

Morning, Yuan Shu replied politely.

From a certain perspective, s.h.i.+ Xiao should be the closest person to Yuan Shu in this world, so he was also the most sensitive to Yuan Shus changes. Yuan Shu could deal with others freely, but she had to be careful with s.h.i.+ Xiao.

Moreover, what happened last night must have been because s.h.i.+ Xiao was testing her. Yesterday, Yuan Shu didnt have the energy to deal with him and escaped in a hurry. Today, s.h.i.+ Xiao would definitely find another opportunity to continue testing her.

Instead of waiting pa.s.sively, it was better to find an opportunity to take the initiative to attack.

As expected, s.h.i.+ Xiao spoke first.

He stood behind Yuan Shu and his slender hand pa.s.sed by her to catch the cup of hot water that Wu Yan handed him. When he retracted his hand, Yuan Shu turned to look at him, but she wasnt in a hurry to speak.

s.h.i.+ Xiao finished the water in the cup in one gulp and instructed Wu Yan, As usual, a cup of Americano.

Wu Yan nodded and left to grind coffee.

s.h.i.+ Xiao then said to Yuan Shu, Accompany me somewhere later. Then, he turned around and sat down on the European-style leather sofa.

Yuan Shu frowned. Where are we going?

Youll know when we get there.

Yuan Shu didnt like such a commanding tone. Even when she was commanding people, she would make things clear and instead of letting others guess, in order to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings. Hence, s.h.i.+ Xiaos att.i.tude made Yuan Shu unhappy.

However, Yuan Shu didnt say it directly. She tied her hair up high with a rubber band and said as she walked out of the door, Lets talk about it after I come back from my exercise.

Without giving s.h.i.+ Xiao any chance to say anything, she had already left the living room and walked out the door.

s.h.i.+ Xiao stared at Yuan Shus back. She was tall to begin with, and her sportswear made her look even more energetic.

Exercise? Why didnt he know that Yuan Shu, who was usually lazy, had a habit of exercising? s.h.i.+ Xiao was even surprised to see her up so early.

s.h.i.+ Xiao and Yuan Shu only lived together for two days after they got married.

Yuan Shu was irritable and dissatisfied with everything. She often stayed up until three or four in the morning at night, and it was often for her to wake up at around one or two in the afternoon in the day. Her daily schedule was very irregular.

s.h.i.+ Xiao, on the other hand, slept from 12 AM to 6 AM. The first thing he did in the morning was to look at the unfinished work left behind by the company the day before. It could be said that his life was a little boring, far less interesting than those of his three younger siblings.

However, with the huge s.h.i.+ Corporation pressuring him, he had no other choice. Only when he was powerful enough and able to support his family could the s.h.i.+ family members, which were hiding under this sh.e.l.l, mature.

Therefore, on the third day after the wedding, he moved back to the ancestral home and left Yuan Shu alone in the villa.

It had only been a few hours since last night, but he felt as if he had never known Yuan Shu. Her self-discipline and self-restraint were completely different from before.

Now, s.h.i.+ Xiao believed that the person who could deal with the other families and protect Yuan An was his wife, Yuan Shu..
