I Am A Boss Mommy That Wants To Slack Novel - Chapter 483
483 I’ll Drink!
Shen Ruojing’s heart was beating wildly under his gaze.
She had never feared anyone before, but now she finally realized the difference between the physical strength of men and women.
Thinking back to that night many years ago…
She was sober.
!!
The details of that night appeared vividly in her mind, making her feel like even her breath was scorching hot.
There was really no need to be so affected.
Although she understood the truth of what had happened in the past and knew that it was Song Chen impersonating Chu Cichen, it didn’t matter as the one she liked had always been Chu Cichen himself…
Both of them had three children already, even if they hadn’t officially registered their marriage, society had become more open…
Shen Ruojing was mentally preparing herself as she watched Chu Cichen walk toward her step by step.
She felt her breathing becoming more urgent, and the spacious room suddenly seemed to be shrinking.
She wanted to say something, but before she could speak, she suddenly heard a ‘creaking’ sound.
Chu Xiaomeng appeared at the door. “Daddy, don’t hit mommy…”
Chu Cichen. “…I didn’t hit mommy.”
“You did.”
“No. Just now, your mommy and I were joking… if you don’t believe me, you can ask her.”
Chu Cichen looked at Shen Ruojing with intense eyes.
Shen Ruojing. “…Yes. You know my skills, if he dared to hit me, I would definitely hit back.”
“Okay.”
Chu Xiaomeng believed it and closed the door.
Chu Cichen approached Shen Ruojing again, and just as he was about to kiss her, he suddenly heard another ‘creaking’ sound. He turned his head abruptly, only to realize that he must be hearing things as there was no one at the door
Chu Cichen. “…”
He sat on the edge of the bed, lowered his head, and tried to start the mood again. But then, another ‘creaking’ sound interrupted him.
It must just be his imagination.
As Chu Cichen was thinking, he heard Chu Yu speak, “Daddy, are mommy’s lips sweet? Why do you keep kissing them? Can I try?”
Chu Cichen. “???”
He suddenly turned his head and looked at Chu Yu, suppressing his anger. “Go back and sleep!”
“Okay.”
Chu Yu closed the door.
Chu Cichen. “…”
Shen Ruojing. “…”
The two of them looked at each other for a moment. After a while, Chu Xiaomeng’s door opened again, and the little one said in a cutesy voice, “Mommy, I’m not sleepy.”
Chu Yu and Chu Tianye also opened their doors and looked at the two of them. They had been sleeping well at the Chu Manor, but now that they were suddenly moved to a new location, how could they fall asleep quickly?
Chu Cichen took a deep breath and said, “Go back and sleep.”
The three little ones obediently went back to bed.
Ten minutes later, Chu Cichen asked, “Are they asleep now?”
Shen Ruojing was about to speak when Chu Xiaomeng’s voice came through. “They’re asleep, Daddy.”
“Uh-huh, I’m asleep too,” said Chu Tianye.
Chu Yu tried to salvage the situation. “They’re asleep now and talking in their dreams.”
Shen Ruojing. “…”
Chu Cichen. “…”
At this moment, the two of them realized that in order to allow Shen Ruojing to hear feedback from the children at night, none of the three doors were soundproofed.
When Shen Yuansong was renovating the house, he clearly did not consider the feelings of both husband and wife.
After all, he had never been married in his life and only thought about taking care of the children. How could he understand that young couples needed their own independent space?
In the end, Chu Cichen left with resentment.
It wasn’t until the next morning when Chu Cichen saw Shen Yuansong that his eyes were filled with a hint of a grudge.
Shen Yuansong didn’t quite understand and pondered for a moment before saying, “Well, even if you haven’t gotten married, you can still live together. I’m not that kind of closed-minded elder.”
Both of them already had three children, and although Shen Yuansong didn’t understand why they hadn’t gotten married yet, he could see that Chu Cichen was devoted to Shen Ruojing, and his granddaughter also favored him.
Chu Cichen was silent for a moment and said, “Thank you for your kind offer, Grandpa, but we’ll pass.”
(Isn’t it the most painful thing to be able to see and not touch?)
He felt like Shen Yuansong was a bit biased against him.
Shen Yuansong didn’t understand what he meant but still praised him, “Hmm, you’re indeed a gentleman.”
“…” He didn’t want to be a gentleman.
Shen Yuansong was about to say something else when his phone rang. He then answered it and heard the voice of Old Master Bai from the other end. “The queen has spread rumors that the Shen family has offended her, and she summoned me and the other two family leaders to chat today. In and between her words, she is trying to get us to ostracize and suppress the Shen family. We’ve had marriage alliances between families for so many generations, and who doesn’t have a daughter from the Shen family? These people’s days won’t be good in the future… Are you mentally prepared?”
Shen Yuansong lowered his gaze. “Alright, it’s done. Since they’ve taken the family dividends, they should pay for it.”
Old Master Bai coughed. “Well, about the incident with your grand-niece Shen Wanying targeting my granddaughter last time, I let it go for the sake of your face. But now, the queen wants me to make an example… my old friend, targeting your grandniece a little and letting out some steam for my granddaughter isn’t too much, right?”
Shen Yuansong. “???”
Shen Wanying was the eldest daughter-in-law of the Bai family, but it was now clear that Old Master Bai was planning to hand over the Bai family to Bai Xiaojiu, so no one was particularly nice to her.
However, Bai Wei had refrained from acting on her out of consideration for the Shen family’s face.
Even so, the behavior of the Shen family’s second branch was really chilling.
“She’s from the second branch, so she is not my legitimate granddaughter,” Shen Yuansong said lightly.
Old Master Bai immediately understood and he immediately said, “Rest assured, I’ll just have her follow some rules, and I won’t do anything to her. After all, she’s still Bai Yitong’s mother.”
After hanging up the phone, Shen Yuansong fell silent.
The other three families were pressuring the Shen family, and the only way to do so was to abuse the Shen family’s women who had married into those families…
If even Old Master Bai, who had such a good relationship with him, wanted to reprimand Shen Wanying to give the queen some face, what about the other women who had married into the Xu and Rong families?
Suddenly, Shen Yuansong thought of what happened yesterday when Shen Tingyan came back, and he immediately asked the butler, “Is the third miss still at home?”
Uncle Liu replied, “Yes, she is.”
…
At this moment, the Xu family’s butler was holding the newly made medicine and said, “Miss Shen, come out and drink your medicine. If you don’t drink it, how can I explain it to Madam?”
This time, the earthworms in the medicine were not ground up as much, and they were struggling on the surface of the water in sections…
Shen Tingyan was hiding in her room and refusing to open the door.
“Ah, if you don’t drink it, I’ll have to talk to Old Master Shen… you still haven’t given birth to a child, which is a disgrace to our Xu family!”
As soon as this was said, Shen Tingyan opened the door with a creak. Her face was pale, and her body was trembling. “I’ll drink it!”
Her instinctive response made her feel like her stomach was churning even before she drank it. But her hand was still steady as she took the medicine.
Her granduncle’s heart was already in chaos, and he needed to handle everything related to the Shen family.
The only thing Shen Tingyan could do for the old grandpa and the Shen family at this moment was to not cause any additional trouble.
