Daily life of working as a substitute bride for a wealthy family

Xiang Ran didn't expect that Sheng Yang had discovered her a long time ago, but he had held back until now to ask.

Xiang Ran's mind raced, using all the cleverness she had accumulated over the past twenty years. She pulled out a knot from her bag and said with a blushing face, "I want to put this under your pillow."

A peach-colored Ruyi knot was held in the white palm of her hand.

"What is this?" Sheng Yang asked.

Xiang Ran deliberately hesitated and pretended to be shy: "Aunt Zeng said that this mandarin duck knot was obtained by her to bring good luck to the couple's relationship..."

"Is this a mandarin duck knot?" Sheng Yang asked.

The knot was an ordinary one. It was originally used as decoration on a Chinese dress in Xiang Ranyi's wardrobe, but a few days ago she secretly took it to a second-hand platform and sold it.

The dress was sent by express delivery, but when I got back I found that the knot was left on the hanger. I had thought I would have time to send it to the customer in the next few days, but I just didn't find the opportunity, so I kept it in my bag.

But Xiang Ran said that the Mandarin Duck Knot is the Mandarin Duck Knot. She emphasized: "It is not called the Mandarin Duck Knot because there are mandarin ducks, just like there is no fish in the fish-flavored shredded pork."

Sheng Yang laughed: "I thought you secretly placed a pinhole camera in my bedroom..."

Xiang Ran was irritated. Although her behavior wasn't exactly upright, it wasn't that dirty either. "Ha, you think I want to secretly take a picture of you?"

Sheng Yang saw her face flushed with anger, and his heart softened as he said with a smile, "It was just a joke. Let Xiao Chen take you back! You won't be able to rest well here. I'm fine now, and the mandarin duck knot... doesn't need to be released."

what?

What does he mean?

If you don’t want to release it, then don’t release it.

This knot is still useful. If you don't send it, the customer won't pay the balance.

However, from the way he spoke, it seemed that... the matter of her hiding in the closet had been resolved.

-

Back in the room, Xiang Ran cropped the part with the file in the photo on her phone, and then looked up the name of the medicine online.

It's nothing more than methylcobalamin or something like that that helps the nervous system recover, there doesn't seem to be any problem.

It’s strange why the Su family suddenly cares about whether Sheng Yang has lost his memory or not?

Why not ask Aunt Zeng tomorrow to find out?

If you know your enemy and yourself, you can fight a hundred battles without danger.

-

Tired after tossing and turning all night, Xiang Ran slept until noon.

Breakfast and lunch were eaten together.

As soon as I returned to the room after dinner, Aunt Zeng came.

She sent the photos she received to Su Yue early in the morning, but then she heard from Xiao Fu that Xiang Ran accompanied Sheng Yang to the hospital in the middle of the night last night, so she hurried to inquire.

"What happened to Mr. Sheng? Why did he suddenly go to the hospital?" Aunt Zeng asked.

"I just have a fever and got caught in the rain." Xiang Ran said casually.

"Really? You went with him? Did the doctor say the same thing?"

Xiang Ran nodded: "That's what the doctor said, but I don't know if the doctor lied to me."

Aunt Zeng smiled flatteringly and said, "It's unlikely that a doctor would lie."

"By the way, Aunt Zeng, has your eldest daughter contacted you?" Xiang Ran asked.

Aunt Zeng was stunned and quickly brushed it off: "I don't know."

Xiang Ran knew what was going on.

If Miss Su had no contact with them, Aunt Zeng would definitely deny it. It is very likely that she had contact with them.

Since Aunt Zeng was unwilling to disclose it, she didn't plan to ask any further questions.

By the time the third month's commission arrives, I'll have quite a bit of money.

Even if she retires, it won't be a loss.

-

Not long after Aunt Zeng went out, there was a knock on the door again.

When I opened it, it turned out to be Sheng Yang?

"Are you okay?" Thinking of how he didn't want to disturb others yesterday, he changed the subject and asked, "Is your cold... okay?"

"Yeah." The man's voice was still hoarse, his hands in his pockets. "Um...are you free next Friday?"

time?

She doesn't work, so of course she has plenty of time.

"Is there something wrong?" Xiang Ran asked.

"There's a cocktail party and I want to take you with me. I'll make an appointment with you in advance."

Xiang Ran originally didn't want to participate in any social activities, mainly because she was afraid of being exposed.

But then she thought of the goal Su Yue had given her—"make more friends with Mr. Sheng"—and nodded: "No problem."

The man put his fist to his lips and coughed twice.

Xiang Ran instinctively held her breath.

Sheng Yang was helpless: "I've been tested for COVID-19, influenza A and B, and I'm fine!"

Xiang Ran broke down and laughed.

She asked, "How could you tell I was holding my breath?"

Of course Sheng Yang couldn't say that he saw her chest rising and falling - it shrank...

I just teased her: "Yesterday, you weren't afraid of getting infected by hugging me?"

Xiang Ran shrugged.

My face doesn't turn red, my heart doesn't beat.

In her opinion, everything she did yesterday was for "perfect attendance".

-

Since that day, although Xiang Ran and Sheng Yang still had little interaction, Xiao Fu and Aunt Zeng both felt that something seemed different about them.

Sometimes when Sheng Yang goes out and meets Xiang Ran, he would say something like: "I'm going to the company", "I won't be back tonight", "I'm working from home today".

Xiang Ran would also ask, "Have you had breakfast?" and "Do you want Xiaofu to prepare some snacks for dinner?"

When Aunt Zeng sees such a scene, she always thinks of her eldest daughter.

From what I've observed over the past few months, the young lady's husband isn't as bad as the rumors say. Although he has a cold personality, he's busy with work all day and doesn't seem like the kind of person who spends his time drinking and carousing.

Even if, as the young lady said, Sheng Yang doesn't like women, the title of Mrs. Sheng is much better than what that unknown person in Australia can bring to the young lady.

Thinking of what Butler Su mentioned a few days ago about the young lady who was not happy in Australia, Aunt Zeng couldn't help feeling a little indignant.

This fake one at home is cheerful all day long.

All the silks, satins, gold, silver and jewelry originally belonged to her daughter, but now they are all bestowed upon Xiang.

So she had to grit her teeth and comfort herself - Butler Su said that as long as the young lady wanted to be Mrs. Sheng again, she could do so at any time.

Otherwise, what's the point of them spending so much money?

This fake at home is just a fake after all.

On Friday, Xiang Ran changed into a white Dior dress from the closet. Su Yiqing had a similar figure to hers, but it was a little tight around the chest, making her feel a little stuffy.

She put on a pearl necklace she brought from the Su family, wore high heels, and got into the car.

Sheng Yang arranged for Xiao Chen to pick her up, while he went directly to the destination from the company.

But when Xiang Ran got off the car, she found Sheng Yang coming out to pick her up.

He was only wearing a black shirt and trousers today, but this simple outfit made Xiang Ran feel very pleasing to the eye.

Especially Sheng Yang's waist, which looks very strong.

No wonder when she read ancient Chinese novels, she often saw the description of handsome men in the books: "If you want to be handsome, dress in black."

It’s a pity that I am not good enough and these high heels are a bit uncomfortable to wear.

Sheng Yang takes big steps,

Xiang Ran walked faster and seemed a little unsteady.

She simply fell behind half a step and took care of her own demeanor first. Just as Butler Su said, she now represented the century-old Su family.

You have to have some professionalism, after all, there are so many people here.

But she didn't expect Sheng Yang to suddenly turn around and reach out his hand to her...
