Shen Tingxi stopped the car at the entrance of the villa, turned around, and saw Mu Jingping's face turned slightly pale, her hands tightly clasped on her lap, obviously very nervous, she reached out and took her hand, her palms were covered with fine Sweat beads, "Don't be nervous, I'll take care of everything."
Mu Jingping wanted to back off, so she whispered, "Can we see you again later?"
"Everyone has made an appointment. You are going on a date now to leave a bad impression on the old man." Shen Tingxi didn't want to give Mu Jingping a chance to back down. Ever since he almost raped her on the night of Huo Yanqing's birthday, he I always feel like she's a little far away.
Although she no longer refuses to hold hands, she is repulsed by hugs, let alone kissing and further actions.
Shen Tingxi did not dare to force Mu Jingping any further, but the relationship between the two seemed to have entered a dead end, always going around in circles, and he was worried.
He didn't dare to get close, so he had to think of other ways to make Mu Jingping feel at ease.
So Shen Tingxi thought of taking Mu Ningran to meet his parents, so that his mother Ju Qiulan wouldn't have to meet her. She didn't like Mu Ningran, so he took Mu Ningran to meet his father Shen Jiuyan today.
In fact, Shen Tingxi had mentioned bringing Mu Jingran to see Shen Jiuyan before, but she never agreed. This time he played a lot of tricks and added Shu Xin's help to get Mu Jingran to nod. It was already at the door, Shen Ting How could Xi give Mu Jingping a chance to retreat
Mu Jingping lowered his head and pursed his lips. Her identity and family background made even Shen Tingxi's mother despise her. Can a man like his father who does big things like her
But if she doesn't go, Shen Tingxi's mother no longer likes her, and if his father also has a bad impression of her, then she may really not be able to be with Shen Tingxi in the future.
In the end, Mu Jingping got off the car because she didn't want to lose Shen Tingxi.
Along the way, passing by corridors, rockeries, and waterside pavilions, Mu Ningran became more and more nervous as she walked in. She didn't expect that Shen Tingxi's home was so big and luxurious. The better his family background, the lower her self-esteem and the more she felt that she was not worthy of him.
Shen Tingxi felt that her little hands were sweating more and more. She stopped and looked at the tense woman beside her, "Ning Ning, don't be afraid. You are the person I recognize. No one can deny it. I will take you to see him." I just want you to integrate into my life and let you understand my determination to be with you.”
Mu Jingping's panic and nervous heart calmed down a lot, and she looked at Shen Tingxi and nodded.
The two of them continued walking forward and entered a three-story villa. Shen Tingxi said, "Old man, I brought your daughter-in-law."
Sitting on the sofa is a man in his sixties. His facial features are sharp and his sparse eyebrows are somewhat similar to Shen Tingxi's. His eyes are deep and sharp. Although he is over fifty years old, he is energetic and has a cold and solemn air about him. This person is Shen Tingxi's father.
He heard the voice and stood up from the sofa, "You brat, I thought you were going to be a bachelor in this life." The words were addressed to Shen Tingxi, but Shen Jiuyan's eyes fell on Mu Jingping.
Mu Jingping felt Shen Jiuyan's gaze, looked at him politely, and said in a soft voice, "Uncle Shen."
Shen Jiuyan nodded, still looking at Mu Jingping.
Shen Tingxi was afraid that Mu Jingping would be uncomfortable, so she handed the gift box in her hand to Shen Jiuyan and diverted his attention, "Old man, this is your daughter-in-law's filial piety to you."
Shen Jiuyan took the gift box, handed it to the servant beside him, and said, "Get ready to eat."
Servant, "Okay, Master Jiu."
The food was put on the table and as soon as people sat down, a delicate voice came from the door, "Nine Masters."
A woman in her thirties walked in. She was wearing a bright red tight-fitting cheongsam. Her curved figure was fully visible. Her snow-white legs crossed back and forth as she walked. She was particularly eye-catching. Her body was translucent. She has the charm of a mature woman, but also has a hint of travel dust.
When Shen Tingxi saw this woman coming in, there was a hint of displeasure in her eyes, but she raised the corners of her lips to look at Shen Jiuyan without smiling, "Did you ask her to come?"
Shen Jiuyan frowned and said to Shen Tingxi, "Don't talk to me in this tone." Then he looked coldly at the woman who had come to the restaurant, "Who asked you to come here?"
Hu Xiner glanced at Shen Tingxi, and then looked at Shen Jiuyan timidly. There was fear and worry in her moist eyes, but also a heart-wrenching weakness, "Jiuye, I didn't know Tingxi was here tonight. Listen, My cousin said you were feeling unwell, and I was worried, so I came over to take a look."
Shen Jiuyan's stern face softened a bit, and his voice was obviously not as cold as before, "I'm fine, you can go back."
"Yes." Hu Xiner nodded obediently, "Take good care of yourself. If you feel really uncomfortable, be sure to ask a doctor to come over."
Shen Jiuyan glanced at Shen Tingxi. He looked at him with a theatrical expression and tapped his fingers on the dining table. Shen Jiuyan didn't like Shen Tingxi's attitude very much, but he didn't say anything and only wrinkled slightly. He frowned and turned to look at Hu Xiner, "I know, let's go back."
Hu Xiner said "hmm" again, and when she turned around and walked out, her eyes swept over Mu Jingping, paused, looked at her a few times, then looked at Shen Tingxi, wanting to ask something, but she saw that Shen Tingxi didn't care about her at all. He kept it in his eyes and swallowed back what he wanted to ask. He only smiled at Mu Jingran and nodded in greeting, then left the villa.
"Let's eat." Shen Jiuyan said calmly, as if nothing had happened.
Shen Tingxi stared at Shen Jiuyan for a few seconds, and his eyes suddenly darkened. The Yun Danfengqing expression just now had long disappeared. He stood up and took Mu Jingping's hand, "Let's go."
Mu Jingping didn't understand what happened, but she could feel that something was wrong with Shen Tingxi since the woman came in just now. She got up and walked out with Shen Tingxi.
"Stop!" Shen Jiuyan stood up.
Shen Tingxi ignored it, walked a few steps and felt unhappy, then turned to look at Shen Jiuyan, with a mocking tone, "You are over sixty years old, aren't you afraid of kidney failure?"
Shen Jiuyan's eyes widened, veins twitching on his forehead, "You bastard, get out of here!"
Shen Tingxi snorted coldly, "I shouldn't have come." Then she pulled Mu Jingran and strode away.
In the car, the atmosphere was quiet. Shen Tingxi's face had not been good since he came out of the villa.
Mu Jingping wanted to comfort Shen Tingxi but didn't know what to say. She didn't know anything about the Shen family and couldn't say anything. She could only sit quietly and not disturb him. She didn't feel relieved and looked at him from time to time.
Shen Tingxi felt Mu Ningran's gaze and turned to give her a reassuring look, "I'm fine."
Mu Jingping looked at Shen Tingxi for a moment and said "hmm".
There was no words for the whole journey after that.
The car stopped in a new community, Shen Tingxi turned to look at Mu Jingping, "We're here, let's get up."
"Yes." Mu Jingping opened the door and got out of the car, standing beside the car with her lips pursed, looking like she was hesitant to speak.
"What's wrong?" Shen Tingxi asked.
