Time Travel: Female Cannon Fodder of the Republic of China

Xia Yu didn't move and secretly looked at Ai Shutong's expression.

"Snapped--"

Ai Shutong slammed her chopsticks on the table.

"Mr. Shen, in order to avoid misunderstandings, you should not come to my house again."

Shen Jiaxing: "Calm down. It's not worth getting angry over someone who has nothing to do with you!"

"Think about it, you've never done a business that loses money. You've made yourself sick from anger, and you still have to spend money to go to the hospital!"

Ai Shutong looked at him with raised eyebrows, "I have money, I am willing!"

Shen Jiaxing smiled good-temperedly: "Yes, yes, you are rich, I just care about your health."

After saying that, she pointed to the gift on the ground and said, "You were wronged just now. It's my mother's fault."

Seeing Ai Shutong glaring, he quickly said, "Don't get me wrong, I'm not apologizing on her behalf. She's fifty years old and is fully capable of taking responsibility for what she did."

"I'm afraid you've gotten too angry and hurt your vitality, so I came to bring you some supplements."

"I am me, my mother is my mother, we are not familiar with each other. Don't blame me for the mistakes she made!"

Ai Shutong was so angry at his shameless words that she laughed, "Haha! You are not familiar with your mother?"

Shen Jiaxing sat down on an empty chair at the dining table, picked up the communal spoon from the beef and potatoes, and began to eat, mumbling as he ate, "Isn't it?! I went to the Shen family's private school when I was three years old, and started working for the Shen family when I was eight. I was busy every day, and went abroad to study when I was fifteen. I came back and stayed there for a short time before I fled to Beijing because of an arranged marriage."

"The world always says that there are no perfect parents, but I don't agree with that."

"Shutong, you can't sentence me to death just because of my parents' fault! Please give me a little more time off for the sake of our past relationship."

Ai Shutong looked at him speechlessly, then stood up and said to him, "Let's talk in the study."

The two came to the study room on the second floor. Ai Shutong pondered for a while and looked at Shen Jiaxing seriously, "Teacher Shen, we can be said to be both teachers and friends. We helped each other and grew together. We have a very good relationship."

"As friends, our relationship can be said to be very stable, but if we were lovers, it would be hard to say."

"When the love between lovers is gone and the relationship breaks down, the best scenario is that they will never see each other again. Some people may even take extreme actions, and both parties will pay a heavy price for it. Do you think it's worth it?"

Shen Jiaxing looked back at Ai Shutong seriously: "Shutong, I know that many of your friends have gotten married over the years, and you have seen the misfortune of marriage from them."

"You may have a fear of marriage, and I understand your thoughts."

"After all, this society is really too harsh on women."

"But I want to tell you that before I fell in love with you, I never thought about getting married and having children."

"Every man has a share of responsibility for the fate of his country. I think I am better than every man, and I want to do my bit for this precarious country."

“I have been working towards this goal over the years.”

"Over the years, I've been in contact with you for a long time. I found that we have many similar ideas and hobbies. Slowly, I was attracted to you."

"Several years ago, I realized that my teacher-student relationship with you had changed, but I knew that you had no expectations for your other half and did not want to get married."

"After several years of struggle, my love for you has not diminished, but has increased."

"I said, I can wait for you. If you don't want to get married, I can date you. If one day you fall in love with someone else, you can turn around and leave immediately. I won't restrict you."

At this point, his eyes widened a little, allowing Ai Shutong to see the sincerity in his eyes more clearly, "You must have confidence in yourself. I can't restrain you. You are like a bird in the sky, free to come and go."

Ai Shutong looked at Shen Jiaxing in surprise, thinking that he was truly a rare gem in this society, and at the same time, a hint of expectation appeared in her eyes.

She felt that if she missed him, she might never meet such a wonderful person again. Thinking about it carefully, she was really reluctant to let him go.

"What if I never want to get married?"

Shen Jiaxing: "I can't guarantee that I will stick with you forever, but now I am willing to accept everything in my heart, even if I have to date you for the rest of my life!"

Ai Shutong nodded hesitantly. The seriousness on Shen Jiaxing's face disappeared and he hugged her happily. "You agreed? You really agreed?"

Ai Shutong pushed him hard, "I have conditions!"

Shen Jiaxing let her go, "You say!"

Ai Shutong: "Your relatives and friends cannot come to disturb me."

Shen Jiaxing said with determination: "Don't worry, I promise not to ask them to disturb you."

No one can interfere in his private affairs, not even his parents.

He must deal with his parents as soon as possible and not let them become stumbling blocks in his relationship.

Thinking of this, he couldn't sit still anymore, and stood up and said, "Shutong, I brought you a lot of bird's nests, try it and see if you like it. If you like it, tell me and I'll ask Shen Yong to prepare more."

"I have some things to do this afternoon, so I'm leaving now."

Ai Shutong thought it was a work-related matter and did not stop him.

She is a strong woman who takes her work very seriously, so naturally she hopes that her partner will also be a responsible person.

"Okay, go do what you need to do!"

Shen Jiaxing hurried back to his home, picked up the phone and dialed, "Hello? Old classmate, this is Shen Jiaxing."

Director Liao of Rensheng Hospital was a little surprised when he received Shen Jiaxing's call. They were middle school classmates and didn't interact much. "Why did Chairman Shen think of calling me today?"

Shen Jiaxing smiled and said, "I want to ask you to do something."

Director Liao joked, "You are the chairman of the bank, and you still come to a commoner like me to do things for you?!"

Shen Jiaxing protested: "Liao Tao, I don't like what you said. It makes me sound so unkind. I haven't offended you, have I?"

Liao Tao quickly explained, "No, no, I was just joking. You asked me to do something for you, so I can't take advantage of you verbally!"

Shen Jiaxing was relieved and said, "Are you in the hospital? I'll go talk to you in detail."

Liao Tao: "Yes, come on."

When Shen Jiaxing arrived at the hospital, Liao Tao had already prepared tea in the office. "Sit down and try this West Lake Longjing tea. This tea is the best to drink in summer."

Shen Jiaxing was not polite and sat down on the sofa. "I'm not only thirsty, but also hungry. Do you have anything to eat?"

Seeing him looking like he was asking for a debt, Liao Tao pointed at him and said, "Why are you still so annoying? You came to me to do something for me, but you didn't bring any gifts and you're asking me for food!"

Having said that, he still got up, took out a bag of biscuits from under the desk and handed it to him.

Shen Jiaxing took it and looked at it. It was still from a foreign store. "This is delicious. It has cream in it."
