The Indifferent Young Master’s Flash Marriage - Chapter 75
Chapter 75: Compared To Strawberries, I Wish To Eat You More
Su Wan smiled. She felt that Luo Xiuxiu was the most fun and straightforward person among the Jiang family members.
Come to think of it, Lin Fei’er was such a person too!
After Luo Xiuxiu’s plea, Su Wan and Jiang Xuecheng had no further reason to decline. Very quickly, Luo Xiuxiu ordered the servants to drive the Koenigsegg Agera R over to the front of the house and to shift all the things into the car boot.
After that, Luo Xiuxiu who was in high spirits initially had a sudden desolation on her face. “Xuecheng, Wan, remember to come back more often.”
With her sudden tone of voice, Su Wan assumed the Jiang family members were not asking them to stay back for dinner?
How could that be? She thought the Jiang family members would invite them to stay a night here, just like how her grandparents had invited them a few days ago.
Su Wan blinked and nodded. Then, she looked toward Jiang Xuecheng as if seeking for help.
Jiang Xuecheng wrapped his arm around Su Wan’s waist, “Grandmother, we will. Wan Wan and I will take our leave now.”
Su Wan lamented with a sigh. The relationship between Jiang Xuecheng and his family was a little distant and cold…
Just as Jiang Xuecheng turned around with Su Wan, about to leave, a warm and light female voice was heard from behind.
“Xuecheng…”
Su Wan turned around in surprise and saw Xu Ziyao standing beside Jiang Wei. Her eyes seemed to be floating with a sense of sadness and desolation.
Su Wan thought that Xu Ziyao wanted to enjoin but she suddenly fell into silence.
Su Wan awakwardly smiled and nodded slightly. Then, she followed Jiang Xuecheng and got into the car.
“Grandfather, Grandmother, Father, Mother, Xuecheng and I will visit when we are free.”
Su Wan waved her hand at the Jiang family members to say goodbye while the car window was lowered.
Just as she was about to say something else, her husband had started the car engine and the car zoomed swiftly away.
After a while, the Jiang family villa with the combination of the East and West elements disappeared from their vision.
Su Wan sighed. The car window was still lowered. With one hand on the window, she took in the cool air from outside and felt much fresher.
She shot the man driving a look. Su Wan looked at his indifferent eyes and suddenly, Xu Ziyao’s floating and blank look connected in Su Wan’s mind.
She could see Jiang Xuecheng’s mother’s care for him…
It wasn’t just Xu Ziyao. Everyone in the Jiang family cared for Jiang Xuecheng so much so that they were trying hard to accept her, an unknown girl whom Jiang Xuecheng chose as his wife.
They were trying their best to make her feel that her position in the Jiang family was recognized.
A warm current flowed in Su Wan’s heart. She couldn’t help but call out, “Xuecheng.”
Jiang Xuecheng controlled the steering wheel steadily while darting a side glance at Su Wan.
“Yes?”
Su Wan’s eyes were slightly opened and there was a silent flow of plea in her voice. “When we are free, let’s go back to the Jiang old house.”
Jiang Xuecheng was the eldest son in the Jiang family but he was not close to his family. The sense of distance was obvious and his family members didn’t dare ask him to stay back for dinner when they considered his feelings. As seniors, they would definitely feel disappointed.
Jiang Haoxuan had been accompanying Sheng An’ning in Dong Chen Country in pursuit of her dream to become a singer and had not been showing filial piety toward his parents and grandparents.
No wonder Xu Ziyao had a desolated look.
Su Wan was a person who had lost her loved ones. Because of this, she appreciated time she could spend with Jiang Xuecheng’s family. Now that they were around, she had better appreciate and not regret when she lost them.
Jiang Xuecheng had mixed feelings while he darted Su Wan a look. He realized it was difficult to decline when Su Wan asked him for something.
Why did Su Wan have the ability to make him agree to whatever she said?
Jiang Xuecheng sighed silently. Then, Su Wan heard his voice echoed in her ears.
“Okay.”
Although it was only one word and his voice was flat, it was obviously his promise.
Su Wan let out a sigh. She smiled and her brows felt lighter.
Good, the Jiang family members would be happier like this.
When they arrived at Fontainebleau, Su Wan saw the abundant gifts in the Koenigsegg Agera R’s trunk and she was speechless.
Just like what Jiang Xuecheng said, they did not lack anything but Luo Xiuxiu was too friendly and they felt bad declining.
In such a time of distress, Jiang Xuecheng took the initiative to lift the bags. He looked funny and that made Su Wan laugh uncontrollably.
Su Wan was beaming. She went over to help Jiang Xuecheng with some lighter bags. Both of them entered their house.
As usual, dinner was prepared by Jiang Xuecheng, while Su Wan was his assistant. Although the dishes were not as sumptuous as those at the Jiang family’s old house, Su Wan felt more comfortable eating without the Jiang seniors’ stares.
After dinner, Su Wan washed some strawberries. The color of the red fruit was pleasing to the eyes and it increased one’s joy.
Su Wan picked some beautiful strawberries and sent them to the study room for Jiang Xuecheng.
“Xuecheng, would you like some strawberries? They are quite sweet.”
Su Wan had one in her mouth and she shoved the plate to Jiang Xuecheng.
Jiang Xuecheng put down the portfolio in his hand. When he raised his head, he saw Su Wan beaming and looking at him. The sides of her lips were stained with light red strawberry juice.
Accepting the plate of strawberries, Jiang Xuecheng stood up. A ray of dim light flashed through his eyes. He took two pieces of tissue from the tissue box on his desk.
“Why?”
When Jiang Xuecheng put the plate of strawberries down on the desk and walked towards her, Su Wan didn’t understand his intention.
“Your eating manner isn’t refined.”
He smiled faintly while stretching his hand out to wipe off the strawberry juice on the edges of Su Wan’s lips.
Feeling embarrassed, Su Wan scratched her hair. She was a girl and her dining etiquette was far from Jiang Xuecheng.
It was so embarrassing!
To cover up her awkwardness and in a fit of pique, Su Wan took the plate of strawberries. She tilted her head up and rebutted Jiang Xuecheng.
“I’m kind enough to send you these strawberries and you still reprimand me.”
Jiang Xuecheng glanced at the plate of strawberries and then his eyes fell on Su Wan’s beautiful and gentle face. When he spoke again, his voice was husky.
“Compared to that plate of strawberries, I wish to eat you more.”
In a twinkle, everything fell into a silence. The surrounding was quiet but Su Wan could hear her own heartbeat. Her heart was leaping fast.
Suddenly, Jiang Xuecheng held Su Wan’s shoulders. Su Wan was taken aback and the plate in her hand fell to the ground.
Clang! The beautiful red fruits fell to every corner of the study room.
After that sound, nobody talked and the study room was so quiet that it would make anyone feel nervous.
A strange atmosphere was in the air and this delicate balance was about to be broken.
