Mr. Sheng's Newly Married Mute Wife

Yan Liang's cell phone was in a bag on the back seat of the car. He was so absorbed in driving practice that he didn't see it until he got home and washed up.

She read the two text messages from Shen Jianxi in silence, her finger hovering over the word "agree" for a few seconds, but she still didn't click.

Now that they have deleted it, they should not bother each other anymore. If Wang Qingwan finds out, she will definitely make trouble with him again. What's the point of going back and forth?

Her heart ached dully, and in the end they became strangers.

She once again felt the urge to delete Shen Jianxi's WeChat account, but after hesitating for a long time, she still couldn't bear to do it.

"Yanliang, it's time to eat." Jiang Xiaomei pulled her, "What are you looking at so intently?"

Yan Liang quickly turned off his phone, smiled faintly, and got up to go to the kitchen to help Sister Yun serve the dishes.

Sheng Shaojun pulled Yan Liang to sit down, patted her hands, and told her to sit down and eat with peace of mind.

Yan Liang felt very embarrassed. She always felt that Sheng Shaojun was too nice to her, which made her feel burdened.

She is not the kind of person who gets close to others easily. On the contrary, she always keeps a certain distance from the people around her. Apart from her deceased mother, Shen Jianxi and Jiang Xiaomei are the people she truly accepts.

Sheng Shaojun was only the mother-in-law in name. She kept a polite distance. Even she was not used to the overly intimate behavior of her biological mother Shang Zixuan.

"Mom, let Yanliang do whatever she wants. This is her home." Sheng Boyan saw Yanliang's restraint and reminded Sheng Shaojun.

"I'm enough for you, Yanliang, just stay here and don't get in my way." Jiang Xiaomei, wearing heat-insulating gloves on both hands, placed a casserole pot of soup in the middle of the dining table and smiled to smooth things over.

"I see. I'm not afraid that Yan Liang will get tired."

Sheng Shaojun glanced at Sheng Boyan with dissatisfaction, and then said something shocking: "What if you are pregnant and don't know it, and you stir up the fetus?"

"puff--"

"Cough cough..."

"???"

Yan Liang choked on a mouthful of rice and his throat got stuck. He coughed so hard that his face turned red.

"Mom!" Sheng Boyan's ears turned red, and he glanced at Yan Liang guiltily, "Will you let us eat?"

Sheng Shaojun looked around at the people at the table innocently: "What's wrong? Did I say something wrong?"

Yan Liang felt a gaze fixed on her, pausing for a few seconds. She followed the gaze and saw Sheng Shaojun's meaningful smile.

Yan Liang's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that she discovered that she could hear?

I was caught off guard and was startled just now. Is Sheng Shaojun so meticulous?

Yan Liang pretended to be calm, gave Sheng Shaojun an embarrassed smile, and continued to shovel rice into his mouth, as if he was very hungry and had choked only because he ate too quickly.

Jiang Xiaomei reached out and patted Yan Liang on the back: "Eat slowly, why are you in such a hurry? No one is going to snatch it from you."

They are indeed best friends, and they work together very well.

Seven years ago, Jiang Xiaomei knew that Yan Liang lost his speech due to excessive shock, but he still had hearing. Later, she found out that Shen Jianxi and the people around him thought Yan Liang was deaf and dumb, and she was very surprised, but she did not clarify for Yan Liang.

Yan Liang could hear people saying bad things about her and hear some people's calculations, which helped her see their true colors.

Jiang Xiaomei winked at Yan Liang.

Sheng Boyan and Sheng Shaojun exchanged a few jokes and the atmosphere became harmonious again.

After dinner, Sheng Boyan said he had something else to deal with and went to the study.

The moment he stepped out of the restaurant, he stopped, looked back and gave Yan Liang a deep look, a playful look flashing across his face.

Yan Liang raised his eyes sharply, and Sheng Boyan withdrew his gaze unnoticeably, leaving Yan Liang with a cold back.

After dinner, Sheng Shaojun asked Yan Liang to help him choose clothes and jewelry for the banquet tomorrow night.

Yan Liang thought it was just fine, but seeing that Sheng Shaojun took it very seriously, it was difficult to refuse.

We went into the cloakroom together. There were several rows of clothes of various styles hanging there, and the tags had not been removed yet.

Sheng Shaojun took off an olive green crepe skirt, compared it on Yan Liang, shook his head, and went to get a goose yellow long skirt. He changed several sets but still couldn't make a decision.

Finally, she set her eyes on a lavender long dress.

"That's it!" Sheng Shaojun said happily, "Tomorrow I'll put on a fairy eyeliner in the same color, it will definitely amaze everyone!"

Yan Liang didn't comment. Either one was fine. She didn't think there was anything special about the banquet tomorrow night.

"Yanliang, I think this rose-red dress should be given to Xiaomei. She is the only one who can carry off this color."

Yan Liang saw it and thought Sheng Shaojun had a good taste.

They went to choose jewelry and shoes.

Sheng Shaojun seemed to be mumbling to himself, "I'm looking forward to having grandchildren soon. Yanliang, Ah Yan is a good man. As long as he promises, he will treat you well for the rest of his life. I have urged him to find a girlfriend over the years, but he just wouldn't listen. Now that he is willing to get married with you, I know he must really like you."

"Don't worry, Mom will definitely give you a grand wedding. In fact, I was nagging Ah Yan about this a few days ago. I really couldn't understand what you young people were planning. He said there was no rush and that we should wait for a while before doing it. Yan Liang, if you think so, I have no objection. Otherwise, Mom will make the decision for you and start the wedding right away. Mom will definitely give you a wedding that will shock everyone in Yancheng!"

"We have to go back to Beijing to hold a ceremony. We have many relatives and friends there. Let Ah Yan take you to meet them."

Yan Liang lowered his eyes, pretending to concentrate on choosing the jewelry to wear tomorrow, but he was wondering in his heart, did Sheng Shaojun really find out that his hearing was normal? Or was he just testing him?

At first, she was reluctant to tell the truth because she was afraid that Shen Jianxi would not be able to let her go, especially now that she was the real daughter of the Wang family. Later, she found that pretending to be deaf and dumb was really good. It could avoid embarrassing topics, such as now and just now at the dinner table. She could also hear a lot of gossip behind people's backs, and thus see the true colors of some people.

She was originally socially anxious, so pretending to be deaf-mute was a natural fit for her. But it was hard for the people around her to communicate with her.

She sighed and said that one day she would be back to normal.

"Yanliang?" Sheng Shaojun called her, with a hint of guilt in her tone, "Mom is worried that you and Ah Yan are hiding something from me. Are you really..."

"Oh, forget it. It's all in vain for me to worry." Sheng Shaojun glanced at Yan Liang with complicated eyes and stopped talking.

Yan Liang caught a hint of displeasure from that look.

As a mother, she must think that Yan Liang is not worthy of Sheng Boyan, but because she can't persuade her son, she has to accept a daughter-in-law who can't chat with her. This is also a great regret for her.

Yan Liang felt guilty, decided on his clothes for the next day, and prepared to go to bed.

Jiang Xiaomei coaxed Chenchen to sleep, and when she saw her rose-red dress, she exclaimed excitedly, and her bright eyes seemed to be lit up and full of energy.

"Yanliang, I will be your flower protector tomorrow night! If Wang Qingwan dares to bully you, I will punish her!"

Yanliang really envied her character of daring to love and hate, and expressing her likes and dislikes clearly. Not everyone has this courage.

Before going to bed, she replied to Shang Zixuan's message. She missed Yan Liang so much after not seeing him for a day that she wanted him to return to the Wang family early tomorrow morning.

Yan Liang refused on the grounds of work and agreed to go back with Sheng Boyan after get off work.

Shang Zixuan grumbled a few more words before saying good night.

Yan Liang was a little uneasy. After tomorrow night, she would officially become the real daughter of the Wang family. This change in status was beyond her expectations.

The gears of fate in the dream began to spin faster.
