Sweet Wife in a Warm Pet Contract
Chapter 53 A Special Home
Li Zhicheng looked over suddenly and saw a very beautiful middle-aged woman. At first glance, she looked very similar to Shen Menghan, as if they were made from the same mold.
Especially their spirit, it's almost identical.
Shen Menghan called out happily, "Mom, I'm back! Where's Grandma?"
"He's inside. Come in quickly. You brought a friend back with you?" Shen Feng said, looking at Li Zhicheng. She felt that the man in front of her was quite handsome, and there seemed to be the shadow of another person in his face.
"Mom, his name is Li Zhicheng, he's my friend. I was worried about coming back too late, and since he was free, I asked him to bring me home," Shen Menghan explained simply, not wanting to attract Shen Feng's attention.
"You have a boyfriend?" Shen Feng's smile froze, as if she was very disgusted that her daughter had a boyfriend.
"Mom, what are you thinking? We're just ordinary friends. Keep your voice down. I'll be so embarrassed if someone hears us," Shen Menghan said shyly, hurrying into the house.
When Shen Feng heard her deny it, she could see that she was acting like a spoiled young girl again. She felt a mix of emotions. Xiao Han was a very obedient child. If she really had a boyfriend, she would definitely be able to find out soon.
"Hello Aunt Shen, I apologize for bothering you." Li Zhicheng was left hanging, so he had to find a way to save face. Otherwise, being stared at like a monkey outside would be a terrible feeling.
"No need to bother you. Please come in and sit down after bringing Xiaohan back." Shen Feng smiled again. Li Zhicheng was handsome and tall. If he really was her daughter's boyfriend, that would be great. But she wouldn't allow her daughter to date casually before she found out his background.
"Okay, thank you, auntie."
Li Zhicheng felt that the aunt was so young and gentle. Her voice was like a spring breeze that soothed his heart.
"Grandma, I'm back. What's wrong? Why are you lying in bed? Are you feeling unwell?" Shen Menghan walked into the small room. A thin old woman was lying on the bed. When she saw Shen Menghan, her eyes opened brightly.
"Grandma has rheumatism and can't get out of bed, but it's nothing serious." Grandma laughed, her voice still very loud, just like before, she loved to speak and laugh loudly.
"Grandma, I think you should go to a big hospital for a check-up. Look, you've been lying here for over a year. Your body will be ruined if you keep lying here like this."
When Shen Menghan said she was putting it down, she sat down on the edge of the bed, reached out and held the old man's hand. He was so thin, like a bamboo pole, that she felt a pang of despair when she touched him.
"No, Grandma isn't that delicate. She doesn't need to go to a big hospital. If she's really in unbearable pain, she can just take some painkillers. But you, don't come back so often. It's too tiring."
"Grandma, I haven't even warmed this stool yet and you're already kicking me out. Don't you like me anymore?" Shen Menghan said, pressing her face against the old woman's, feeling her presence.
"Alright, Grandma's just kidding. Your mom and I are so happy you're back. You even brought people back with you? Let Grandma take a good look at them." Grandma spoke with great energy, but Shen Menghan didn't notice the exhaustion in her eyes, as if she was using all her strength to speak.
"Mom, Xiaohan's friend has come in." Shen Feng led Li Zhicheng in. The room was dimly lit, but well-ventilated.
"Hey, Xiaohan, step aside and let Grandma have a good look at you."
"Li Zhicheng, come here and let my grandma take a good look at you." Shen Menghan beckoned to him, her eyes warning him: Try talking nonsense!
Li Zhicheng stepped forward and politely said to the old woman, "Hello, Grandma, my name is Li Zhicheng."
"Li Zhicheng? Someone surnamed Li?" Grandma's originally happy expression immediately changed after hearing Li Zhicheng's words.
"Yes." Li Zhicheng didn't know where he had gone wrong, but he saw the old man's expression suddenly change and he became uneasy.
If he accompanies Xiaohan back this time and the elders don't approve, there will likely be more obstacles between him and Xiaohan.
"Mom, it's okay that he has the surname Li, but don't scare the child. Xiaohan, take Mr. Li outside, I'll talk to your grandma for a bit." Shen Feng seemed to be afraid that Li Zhicheng would feel embarrassed, so she gestured to her daughter.
"Mom, say what you want to say to my face, don't say it behind my back." Shen Menghan was not going to listen obediently. She felt that there was something behind her grandmother's words, but she didn't say it.
"What can I say? Your grandma needs to take her medicine. I need to help her to the toilet. This silly child, you're going to get angry with me as soon as you get back, aren't you?" Shen Feng scolded irritably, making Li Zhicheng quite embarrassed. He left first.
Almost everyone outside stopped to watch his car; they only dared to look at it with envy, but dared not touch it.
Upon seeing him come out, they all scattered in a flurry.
Seeing how simple and honest they were, Li Zhicheng smiled.
Shen Menghan offered to help, but Shen Feng pushed her away, saying, "I can take care of your grandmother by myself. Don't cause trouble here, or I'll make a complete mess of things."
"Mom, I just wanted to help, what's wrong with you?" Shen Menghan felt that her mother was acting strangely!
"You bring guests back and don't greet them? What kind of behavior is this, leaving them hanging? Is this how your mother taught you to treat guests?" Shen Feng retorted, then pushed her out without another word.
Shen Menghan had no choice but to leave dejectedly.
Li Zhicheng stood alone, looking very lonely. She felt a little guilty, so she moved closer to him and whispered, "Why don't you go back first?"
"What are you saying? Now that I'm here, I'm not leaving. We'll leave together tomorrow afternoon." He couldn't imagine that if he didn't accompany Xiaohan back, she would have to walk for more than an hour to reach the highway where there was a passing passenger bus, take it into the county, and then go to Xicheng.
They drove straight ahead without stopping, and it took them nearly three hours to arrive.
"Don't be scared by them. They are actually very nice people. Of course, you shouldn't scare them either." Seeing the kind faces, Shen Menghan thought of the sycophants in the big city and couldn't help but sigh at the little bit of beauty left in the world.
"I didn't scare anyone. I'll do whatever you say." Li Zhicheng responded softly. He understood that she had introduced them that way because she didn't want her mother to know their true relationship.
"Alright, alright, you did a good job today, I'll reward you later."
"What's the reward?" Li Zhicheng couldn't wait to find out.
"What reward do you want?"
"Of course,"
"You're not allowed to mention it! I'll give you whatever I want!"
Shen Menghan snapped out of her daze and immediately stopped him from continuing, otherwise she wouldn't like to hear what he was saying.
"Xiaohan, it's a deal." Li Zhicheng told her, leaning close to her ear and whispering. The two were so intimate that they looked like a couple to others.
"Okay." Shen Menghan rolled her eyes in annoyance. She shouldn't have agreed to him so readily.
