Chapter 321 Stars
Because she was too cautious and Zhou Zhiming's eyes were on her, Nan Sheng wanted to escape.
After dinner, Zhou Zhiming stayed with Jiang Qingqiu, and Nan Sheng found an excuse to leave.
"Mom, I have an appointment with my boyfriend, so I have to leave first. Can I come to see you after class tomorrow?" Nan Sheng spoke softly to Jiang Qingqiu.
"Okay. Bring your boyfriend tomorrow. Our Zhenzhen has grown up and has a boyfriend. When Zhenzhen gets married, Mom will definitely give her the most luxurious wedding." Jiang Qingqiu looked at Nan Sheng with a smile, "Zhenzhen can tell Mom whatever she likes."
"Okay, thank you, Mom." Nan Sheng responded playfully.
Jiang Qingqiu even personally sent Nan Sheng out, and Nan Sheng couldn't stop him.
Throughout the whole process, Jiang Qingqiu held Nan Sheng's hand and kept smiling.
"Zhenzhen, Mom is not old-fashioned. I won't stop you from living together. As long as the boy treats you well sincerely, Mom will have no objection." Jiang Qingqiu was explaining to Nan Sheng.
Nan Sheng nodded, very sure: "Mom, he is a very, very good person, and also very, very outstanding."
"Okay, okay." Jiang Qingqiu was still smiling, "Mom believes Zhenzhen must have good taste."
The two chatted for a while before Jiang Qingqiu was taken back by Zhou Zhiming. When leaving, Jiang Qingqiu was still a little reluctant.
Nan Sheng didn't stay for long. She turned around and walked quietly towards the door.
The butler escorted Nan Sheng out.
She refused the Zhou family's car because Song Xiao was already waiting outside.
Zhou Jingyan had naturally explained this matter, so the housekeeper did not stop it, but just told Nan Sheng to be careful.
"Miss Nan, I'll take you there. Please be careful on the way." The housekeeper said politely.
Nan Sheng responded with an "OK".
Soon, Nan Sheng turned and ran towards the low-key Volkswagen SUV on the side of the road.
Song Xiao got out of the car, his deep eyes quietly falling in the direction of Nan Sheng.
When Nan Sheng saw Song Xiao, her eyes were full of stars. She rushed into Song Xiao's arms and hugged him with her slender hands.
"You're here." Nan Sheng said softly.
Song Xiao nodded, pulled Nan Sheng out of his arms, and nodded again.
He just lowered his head and looked at Nan Sheng. Nan Sheng dodged for a moment and urged Song Xiao: "Get in the car, get in the car. There are tourists checking in here. I don't want to cause any trouble."
Song Xiao didn't say anything, but opened the car door and let Nan Sheng get in.
Then Song Xiao walked around to the driver's seat and got into the car calmly.
But he didn't rush to start the engine, his eyes were still on Nan Sheng.
Nan Sheng felt uncomfortable being stared at by Song Xiao. She lowered her head, feeling a little guilty: "Why are you looking at me like that?"
Then Nan Sheng tried to change the subject: "Have you had dinner? Don't tell me you came to pick me up without eating. Do you know that this is not good for your stomach?"
Nan Sheng was muttering to herself, and Song Xiao waited patiently for her to finish.
Then Song Xiao's voice came faintly: "Nan Sheng, do you have anything to tell me today?"
Nan Sheng uttered an "oh," "That's quite a lot. What do you want to hear?"
As she spoke, Nan Sheng lowered her head and pretended to fiddle with the safety buckle.
Song Xiao was quiet, but he went straight over the driver's seat and fastened Nan Sheng's safety buckle.
At this angle, coupled with the street lights outside, the five finger marks on Nan Sheng's face suddenly became obvious.
It may also be that Nan Sheng's makeup came off because she stayed at Zhou's house for too long.
Song Xiao stared at Nan Sheng intently, his big hands cupping her face naturally. "Does it hurt?"
Now, Nan Sheng knew that Song Xiao probably knew everything.
She shook her head. "It doesn't hurt now. It hurt quite a bit at first. I had foundation on so thick, you could still tell."
Nan Sheng's tone was light, as she wanted to prevent Song Xiao from worrying.
"Don't worry, I'm fine and I won't suffer any harm. After all, I'm a hot pepper." Nan Sheng waved her hand, trying to reassure Song Xiao.
Song Xiao's eyes were still looking at Nan Sheng quietly, but Nan Sheng felt even more passive under his gaze: "Why are you still looking at me... Really, it's okay."
"You didn't even fight back after being hit, and you still call yourself a hot pepper?" Song Xiao asked Nan Sheng in a low voice.
Nan Sheng groaned, "She's my elder after all. Besides, she's a big star. If I really hit her, her fans will hang me up online and lash out at my corpse."
Song Xiao laughed softly, and this laughter seemed to ease the slightly tense atmosphere.
"If you encounter something like this in the future, don't pay attention to it." Song Xiao waited for a while before speaking quietly, "Don't take anything she said to heart. She can't decide anything, nor can she change anything, understand? If there is a problem, don't make the decision on your own, tell me and I will handle it."
He spoke in a very serious tone, neither hurried nor slow.
"Okay." Nan Sheng nodded.
Song Xiao nodded, started the engine, and drove towards the community where they lived.
Nan Sheng thought about it for a moment before looking at Song Xiao: "Your mother doesn't seem to agree with us being together."
Song Xiao took advantage of the traffic light to glance at Nan Sheng, his attitude very firm: "It's her business if she disagrees, and it's my business if I choose you. These two things are unrelated."
These words seemed to give Nan Sheng great affirmation and courage. Her eyebrows curved and she looked very happy.
But Nan Sheng had a thousand reasons in her mind, and she couldn't help but ask, "Why doesn't your mother agree with me? Is it just because I'm the Lu family's adopted daughter?"
"Not entirely. She thinks you've trapped me and prevented me from leaving with her. She's a very selfish person. She abandoned me when I was a minor for her own sake, and now she has no right to come back and dictate things to my life." Song Xiao said lightly.
These words sound so light and peaceful.
But Nan Sheng knew that when these words came out of Song Xiao's mouth, it was like a sharp cut to Song Xiao.
Because Song Xiao still cares.
Nan Sheng sighed, and placed her slender fingers on the back of Song Xiao's hand.
Song Xiao felt that Nan Sheng was trying to comfort him. He didn't say anything, but instead took Nan Sheng's hand and held it tightly.
"Song Xiao, you actually still care about your mother, right?" Nan Sheng asked.
If you don't care, you won't confront it.
Song Xiao neither denied nor admitted what Nan Sheng said.
The car soon stopped in the garage of the small villa.
The moment the car stopped, Nan Sheng hugged Song Xiao and said, "Song Xiao, you are the best person. Your mother abandoned you back then. It was her fault as a mother. You don't need to take it to heart. Besides, you have me. Even if you drive me away, I will not abandon you."
These words moved Song Xiao's heart.
Song Xiao responded to Nan Sheng with a hug.
He held Nan Sheng tightly in his arms, his voice low and hoarse: "Okay."
Nan Sheng let Song Xiao hold her.
