In his lifetime, he only wanted to see his grandson get married and start a family. If he could, he would have a great-grandson as soon as possible, and he would have no regrets in this life.
Shi Nuannuan was stunned by Old Cheng’s sudden words. She pursed her lips and said with a smile, “No, no.”
Indeed, she didn’t dislike Cheng Huan, but only between a man and a woman.
She did not dislike him as a pure friend of the opposite sex, and she really liked making him her friend!
When he heard that, Old Master Cheng’s eyes lit up as if he saw some hope in an instant.
“Is that so? That’s good, that’s Good!”He held Shi Nuannuan’s hand and nodded.
Only Cheng Huan understood that Shi Nuannuan’s warm affection was just a very pure affection from a friend of the opposite sex.
In other words, she either treated him as a ‘brother’or a ‘sister’.
In short, it was not the kind of relationship that grandfather hoped for.
After drinking afternoon tea and eating snacks, old master Cheng was finally leaving.
After sending them to the door and watching their car gradually drive away, Shi Nuannuan could not wait to turn around. She limped to the sofa in the living room, picked up the phone on the coffee table, and dialed Xiang Yi’s number!
She looked at the maid in the living room and thought for a moment before deciding that it would be more convenient to go back to her room to make a call.
The phone rang twice before it was picked up. His gentle and deep voice that sounded like gurgling water could be heard, “Hello?”
Hearing his voice, Shi Nuannuan was at a loss for words.
There were so many things that she wanted to say to him, but why did she suddenly feel like she had nothing to say?
After thinking for a while, she said unhappily, “I’m sorry, I fell asleep last night, and when I woke up today, you were already on the plane.”
If she had woken up early and seen the news, she would definitely have gone to the airport to send him off. If he had gone, he would not have been able to see her for another week!
Hearing her soft voice, he smiled gently. “It’s okay, I told you too late.”
Actually, he only came to country a after nine o’clock in the evening when Shi Yuting suddenly asked him to come.
“You’ve arrived at the Hotel?”Hearing his gentle tone, Shi Nuannuan’s mood brightened up a lot.
Xiang Yi was silent for half a second before answering her question. “I’m not at the hotel.”
She was stunned.
Not at the hotel? Where would she stay if she went on a business trip?
“If you’re not staying at a hotel, then where are you staying?”
He hesitated for a moment before saying, “Imperial residence.”
Shi Nuannuan was stunned.
Imperial residence? Did he mean country A’s imperial residence?
Why was he staying there?
Shi Nuannuan was stunned for a moment before she suddenly thought of a problem!
Country A, wasn’t that Manli the heir to country A’s imperial family? Could it be… that Xiang Yi went to country A to look for her?
“You, why do you live there?”She didn’t have the heart to frown. When she thought about how she might really be in contact with that Manli, her heart felt a little stifled.
Xiang Yi seemed to hear some unhappiness in her tone.
“The matter I came to handle is related to the royal family of Country A.”
“Then who is the one who received you?”
”… Miss Manli.”
It was indeed her!
After a long while, her voice did not come from the other side. He knew that she was very concerned about this matter.
“It was purely business between her and me. We left after settling the matter.”
Shi Nuannuan raised her eyes and actually trusted Xiang Yi a lot. There was no need for her to be jealous over this matter. If that was the case, wouldn’t she be unable to change her willful habits?
Xiang Yi probably did not like the willful her, right?
