Chapter 129: Awake and Pretending
There was a yellowish wall lamp on at the head of the bed in the bedroom.

During the days they lived together, Shen Chaoxi developed a habit. He didn't like dark environments and had to have some light when sleeping.

Shang Jianghan glanced over and saw a shallow bulge on the double quilt on one side of the bed.

The girl sleeps very soundly. She rarely turns over unless there are special circumstances, and her breathing is light. In short, she sleeps quietly, giving people a sense of security.

Shang Jianghan looked for a while and then left the bedroom. Afraid of making noise and waking people up, he decided to go downstairs to take a shower.

When she was half asleep, Shen Chaoxi felt something moving on her chest. Soon she felt a chill on her chest and the front of her pajamas was opened.

I went back to Chongyuan Road last night. Who else could have done this to her except one person?

Besides, the familiar woody scent at the tip of the nose has already betrayed the other person's identity.

Shen Chaoxi closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep, but the corners of her mouth twitched unconsciously. When her top was gently taken off, revealing her smooth shoulders, she deliberately moaned, then raised her arms high and climbed onto the strong arms.

There was a low laugh coming from above my head, which sounded so pleasant in the silent night that it made my heart numb.

"Are you still pretending now that you're awake?" the man breathed into her ear.

Shen Chaoxi's skin felt numb and itchy, and he instinctively wanted to hide, but someone grabbed him and pressed him down.

The big hand under the duvet became more unscrupulous.

After not seeing each other for a few days, not only the man had needs, but Shen Chaoxi was also moved, and they cooperated tacitly.

The battle was extremely fierce and lasted a long time.

After washing up, everyone lay down, and no one wanted to sleep.

"Why did you come back early?" Shen Chaoxi pulled the quilt upwards, almost covering his mouth.

She was wearing a suspender nightgown, and the red marks on her shoulders were somewhat shocking.

"Well, it's almost done. You didn't even tell me you were back. Don't be so independent in the future. Let the driver pick you up."

Shang Jianghan had just learned that Shen Chaoxi had returned by bus.

If outsiders really knew that the future boss lady of Lianzhong actually took a bus, I'm afraid no one would believe it.

She also has to be labeled as being pretentious and artificial, and having a reputation of trying to attract attention by experiencing the lives of the people.

However, Shen Chaoxi didn't care at all.

"So I want to buy a car. I can't always rely on my family, right? I'm not a rich lady who stays at home idle. I have a job, okay?"

Maybe because he had just overused his voice, Shen Chaoxi's voice sounded hoarse when he spoke.

Shang Jianghan felt a little craving for cigarettes after exercising, so he went downstairs under the pretext of getting Shen Chaoxi a glass of water.

After Shang Jianghan walked out of the bedroom, Shen Chaoxi realized belatedly that there was a special warm water machine in the bedroom, so when Shang Jianghan handed over half a cup of warm water with a faint smell of tobacco, Shen Chaoxi naturally rolled his eyes.

"Can't you just control yourself and smoke when you're stressed out at work, and not think about it when you're at home?"

Regarding the issue of smoking and drinking, the couple did discuss it during the first three days after their marriage.

"Pay attention next time. What are you thinking?"

Shang Jianghan took the empty cup handed to him by Shen Chaoxi, then lifted the quilt and got into bed.

He held his newlywed wife in his arms, kissed her smooth forehead, and looked down at the rosy blush that had not yet faded.

Shen Chaoxi found a comfortable position in his arms and gradually felt sleepy.

"When are we meeting the parents?"

Shang Jianghan also considered this issue.

"My dad is on a business trip and is not in the country. I will accompany you to visit grandma tomorrow. It's not a formal meeting, so I'll let you know first."

Shen Chaoxi felt that this approach would not seem abrupt, and she nodded in agreement. Then she remembered the various boxes that almost took up half of the space in the drawer of the bedside table on the other side. She suppressed her blush and looked up at the man who was half a head taller than her. The main lights were turned off in the room, leaving only a dim wall lamp. After adapting to the light, the man's smooth and sexy jawline became more prominent and charming.

Shen Chaoxi touched his chin with his fingers. It couldn't be said to be smooth and delicate, it even felt a little prickly.

A big hand gently stroked my back and a low voice came from above my head, like the sound of a string.

"Go to sleep, don't bother me again, or you won't be able to get up tomorrow."

It's a warning, but also a joke.

Under the duvet, the two of them were pressed close together, and each could clearly see the changes in each other's body parts.

Besides, Shang Jianghan is really the kind of person who won’t let go until he’s satisfied.

Shen Chaoxi withdrew her fingers as if she had been electrocuted, and placed them obediently in front of her body. She truly experienced the truthfulness of the other party's words.

The next day, before Shen Chaoxi and Shang Jianghan went out, they received a call from Zheng Juanjuan.

Ge Xiaoshu had a seizure in the early morning and has been sent to the delivery room.

Shen Chaoxi hurriedly ate breakfast and rushed to the hospital with Shang Jianghan.

Zheng Juanjuan had given birth before, so she knew that this was not something that could be rushed. She and Yao Dimai accompanied Ge Xiaoshu over in the evening. However, the pregnant woman's delivery period had not yet arrived, so the family members were anxious when they came. They waited until the mother entered the delivery room early in the morning before calling home one by one.

Because her grandmother was hospitalized in the Peking University affiliated hospital, and thanks to Zhong Hongguang, Ge Xiaoshu had her prenatal checkups switched to the obstetrics and gynecology department here in the past few months, and she even booked a single room in advance.

When Shen Chaoxi arrived, outside the delivery room, besides Zheng Juanjuan, there was also Ge ​​Xiaoshu's mother Sui Jie. She greeted her politely.

"Hello, Aunt Sui!"

Maybe because she was nervous about her daughter or for some other reason, Sui Jie wasn't very enthusiastic about Shen Chaoxi. She just looked him up and down and nodded.

However, no one cares about this at this moment.

Shang Jianghan had just parked his car downstairs and was taking the elevator up.

Zheng Juanjuan didn't expect Shang Jianghan to come, and she was a little at a loss for a moment. Even Sui Jie put away the disdain in her eyes when she saw the man with obviously unusual dress and temperament.

"Mr. Shang is here too. How could I disturb you?" Zheng Juanjuan said politely.

Shen Chaoxi was in a hurry when she got off the car and didn't take her handbag with her, so Shang Jianghan took it for her.

A grown man, holding a silver bag with diamonds that was not much bigger than his palm, looked somewhat unworthy of his status.

Shen Chaoxi naturally noticed it and reached out to take her handbag.

Shang Jianghan's dark eyes gestured towards Zheng Juanjuan.

"You're welcome. Just call me by my name from now on."

Zheng Juanjuan was stunned at first. The other party used honorifics, but given her status, she still looked unapproachable. Then she looked at her niece. Although they were married, she would not address her so directly.

Just like Zhong Hongguang, every time someone came and called her sister-in-law, she felt scared.

Money comes first, status can never be equal.

You know, there are only a few people in the entire Shangjing City who can call this person by his name.

"Hey!" Zheng Juanjuan nodded and responded randomly.

Shang Jianghan received a phone call and he walked to a nearby place to answer it.

Sui Jie took advantage of no one's attention and came over to ask Zheng Juanjuan about this person's identity.

Because when her daughter married into the Yao family, she was attracted by the fact that the other party had two houses and an aunt who married into a wealthy family.

But after getting married, Sui Jie almost came to the Yao family to make a scene when she heard her daughter accidentally mention that the house on the first floor would belong to Shen Chaoxi in the future.

A niece, abandoned by her own mother, actually took over what would belong to her own daughter in the future!
