As soon as Madam Xiang left, Xiang Muyang couldn't sit still. His mind was full of what his mother had just said to him. He originally thought that Ye Yan would not fall in love with a married woman, but now it seems...
It was obvious that Ye Yan had ulterior motives.
A young master like him might just be looking for excitement and have some fun. But if Shu Nian can't control himself...
After all, Ye Yan is not an ordinary person. Whether in terms of appearance or family background, he is one in a million. Even though he is not very involved in his own business, he is doing it in full swing and is thriving. He can be said to be a young and promising man.
Thinking of this, Xiang Muyang felt even worse. If he were a woman, he probably wouldn't be able to control himself.
———
Ye Yan died after staying in the VIP ward for two days. Shu Nian's work suddenly became busy and he began to receive training in various aspects.
The floor manager asked someone to come and teach her some precautions and etiquette, and then patrolled the entire floor, and then recorded the information of all VIP patients.
The information is thick and numerous, from medical history to family history, and it would take several days to go through it all.
In the evening, Shu Nian still attended night classes as usual.
She hadn't seen Ye Yan for a long time and almost forgot about this old classmate.
However, Xiang Muyang was acting strangely recently. He no longer treated her with sarcasm and ridicule as before, but with gentleness and consideration.
In addition to going home every night, he would also be responsible for picking her up and dropping her off when she went to night school.
That night, Shu Nian sat in Xiang Muyang's car as usual, and he took her back. Halfway through the car, she glanced at Xiang Muyang and couldn't help but asked, "What are you planning?"
I have been wanting to ask this question for a long time and have been holding it in for several days.
"What are your plans?" Xiang Muyang held the steering wheel, his eyes fixed on the road conditions ahead.
Shu Nian took a deep breath and looked out the window. After a while, he turned his gaze back and looked at him calmly, "You suddenly changed your attitude towards me. You must have some plans in mind. Let's make it clear now, otherwise, I always feel a chill in my back and feel very uncomfortable."
Xiang Muyang was silent for a moment, and then he said faintly: "Shu Nian, I want to be good to you. Does this make you uncomfortable?"
"Why? There must be a reason if you suddenly want to treat me like this." She was very rational.
"The reason is simple. You are my wife." Xiang Muyang stopped the car when they encountered a red light. He looked at Shu Nian deeply and suddenly took out a brocade box from his pocket. Shu Nian was startled. When the brocade box was opened, there was a dazzling diamond ring inside.
"I owe you this. Today is our two-year wedding anniversary, so I specially ordered this."
Shu Nian was stunned, looking at the ring, then at Xiang Muyang, and for a moment he couldn't tell what he felt. It was very complicated.
He held her hand and put the ring on her ring finger.
Her fingers were tense.
"Xiang Muyang, have you thought it through?" Shu Nian finally spoke: "Do you still want to continue this ridiculous marriage with me?"
"I originally thought about ending this marriage with you, but every time I think about it, it hurts..." Xiang Muyang held her hand tightly and pressed it against his chest, "Shu Nian, I really love you. Because I love you, I care so much... I'm also really afraid that if this goes on, you will really fall in love with someone else... I'm afraid that our relationship will reach the end of its rope."
Shu Nian smiled bitterly.
I originally thought that she and Xiang Muyang had reached the end of their rope. But it turned out that in his eyes, their marriage could still be saved.
Shu Nian glanced at him, said nothing, and pulled his hand out. In the end, he just said lightly: "Drive."
Xiang Muyang was very happy. Although she was still indifferent, at least she didn't refuse. He started the car, and Shu Nian looked down at the ring on his finger.
Her fingers, which had always been smooth, suddenly had something so luxurious added to them, and she really couldn't get used to it.
The car drove all the way to Xiang's home.
Shu Nian was very quiet along the way, and he and Xiang Muyang had no words. Soon, the car drove to the Xiang family's villa, and Shu Nian got out first.
"Wait a moment." Xiang Muyang went around to the trunk.
Shu Nian followed the line of sight and saw him holding a large bouquet of roses and handing it to him.
Shu Nian looked at him like this, his mind was a little dazed. Suddenly, it seemed that he saw Xiang Muyang who proposed to him two years ago...
"Thank you." She hugged the flowers tightly.
"I know you don't like my secretary, and I have already fired her." There was a hint of flattery in Xiang Muyang's tone.
Shu Nian did not respond. In fact, he was surrounded by more than just a secretary.
"Come in. It's a bit cold outside." Xiang Muyang put his arm around her shoulders and went in together.
The nanny at home was shocked when she saw this scene. It felt like the sun was rising from the west. When did the wife and husband become so close? Normally, they were like water and fire.
"Wife, I'm going to take a shower first." Xiang Muyang lowered his head and kissed Shu Nian on the cheek.
Shu Nian still tensed her body. Fortunately, Xiang Muyang did not go any further. He let go of her and went upstairs first.
"Please help me put the flowers in place." Shu Nian handed the flowers to the nanny at home and changed his shoes.
The nanny sniffed and smiled, "Madam, this flower is so beautiful. The husband is actually very good to you."
"Really?" Shu Nian smiled faintly, showing no emotion. She was actually allergic to pollen, but unfortunately, people who didn't pay attention would never know.
——
After Shu Nian took a shower, he was sitting on the bed reading a book when the door was pushed open from the outside.
Her breathing quickened, and her hand holding the book tightened as well.
The next moment, Xiang Muyang had already pushed the door open. He was only wearing a bathrobe, revealing half of his chest. Shu Nian's whole body became more and more tense.
"Are you still studying so late?" Xiang Muyang sat down beside her bed.
She tried very hard to remain calm, "I still have a lot of important points to read tonight, you should go to bed early."
Xiang Muyang seemed to not feel that this was an order to leave, so he took the book from her hand and put it aside. Shu Nian then looked up at him, and he reached out his hand, grabbed her chin, and gently pulled her towards him.
"Today is our anniversary, so there's no need to work so hard. Or... should we work hard on something else?"
This hint was very clear. Shu Nian grabbed the bed sheet tightly and looked at him straight in the eyes, "Don't you dislike me?"
"..." Being stung by her words, a dark color flashed across Xiang Muyang's face. However, it was fleeting, and the next moment, he said with some pain: "I am just too insecure, so I care so much. Shu Nian, as long as we do everything and you accept me frankly, I will not care about anything anymore!"
