Chapter 520 I suddenly feel some sympathy for Mr. Shen
Jiang Mushi's face turned red, and he was worried that Wei Yao might have heard it, so he quickly looked forward to make sure that the other party had not heard it, and then he whispered.
"Sister, don't talk nonsense. I, I just have nothing to do in the afternoon!"
"Oh...it turns out it's just because you have nothing to do!" Jiang Suining stretched out his voice slightly, his tone was mischievous.
When my younger brother heard that A Yao was dating someone, he looked like he wanted to pounce on the person he was dating and bite him. His thoughts were all shown on his face, but he still pretended to be stubborn.
……
By the lake on the outskirts of the city, the plane trees are rustling.
When the carriage arrived, Shen Yanxi was already waiting by the lake.
Seeing Jiang Suining getting off the carriage, a smile appeared on his face unconsciously.
However, when Shen Yanxi saw Jiang Mushi and Wei Yao following closely behind, his smile froze instantly.
"Ningning, why are Mu Shi and the female official Wei here too?"
"Brother-in-law, this is not very kind of you. The scenery in the suburbs is so beautiful, how can you only invite my sister?" Jiang Mushi took the initiative decisively.
Don’t think he didn’t see the frozen smile just now. Now that they are here, don’t try to chase them away.
Jiang Suining explained: "I invited A Yao. We happened to meet each other while dining, so I invited her to join us."
Wei Yao smiled unnaturally, "Sir Shen, I'm sorry to bother you."
"It's okay. Since Ningning invited us, let's go together." Shen Yanxi smiled as usual, but secretly gave Jiang Suining a helpless and aggrieved look.
He only planned to go boating on the lake with Ningning today.
Feeling Shen Yanxi's gaze, Jiang Suining silently shifted his gaze away. When they walked towards the cruise ship that had been prepared by the lake, Jiang Suining slowed down his pace, and after keeping a certain distance from Jiang Mushi and Wei Yao in front of him, he whispered to Shen Yanxi.
"I invited them temporarily. Mu Shi likes A Yao, so I'll just give them an opportunity."
"Really?" Shen Yanxi immediately looked at the two people in front of him, and happened to see Jiang Mushi glanced at Wei Yao from the side. Before Wei Yao noticed his gaze, he quickly retracted his gaze and pretended to be normal.
Seeing this, there was no need for Jiang Suining to answer anymore, Shen Yanxi knew that it was indeed the case.
"Then do you know what the female official guard is thinking?" Shen Yanxi asked curiously.
Jiang Suining shook her head. "I don't know about this, but I can't ask too much about love affairs. It's just that Mu Shi is my brother after all, so as a sister, I naturally have to create some opportunities for him. Of course, please don't be angry if I didn't tell you in advance."
"How could I be angry with you? As for the two of them... forget it. Since we are already here, and it is related to my brother-in-law's lifelong event, then I, the future brother-in-law, can only put up with it."
Just today...
A hint of helplessness flashed across Shen Yanxi's eyes, and he silently gave up his original idea.
Jiang Mushi and Wei Yao in front had already reached the shore. They turned around and saw that Jiang Suining and the others were far behind, so Jiang Mushi urged them.
"Sister, hurry up and stop whispering."
Listening to these urging words, Shen Yanxi shook his head and sighed, "Ningning, why do I feel that Mu Shi is a hopeless person?"
The fact that Ningning and I fell behind would create an opportunity for him and Wei Yao to chat more alone, wouldn't it?
Jiang Suining also smiled somewhat helplessly. The two of them quickened their pace a little and walked to the lake.
The lake is bleak in winter, and there are usually few cruise ships or art workshops.
But perhaps because the weather was good today, in addition to Jiang Suining and his party, there were three other pleasure boats on the lake, sailing on the water not too far away.
There was hot tea and a variety of fruits and snacks in the cabin. There was also a stove and fresh dishes at the stern. According to Shen Yanxi's request, today's dinner would be eaten on the boat.
Jiang Suining stood at the bow of the boat, looking at the ripples on the water. Shen Yanxi handed her a cup of hot tea.
"Since we're out here to have fun, don't think about some things."
Jiang Suining looked at Shen Yanxi, "Do you know what I'm thinking?"
Shen Yanxi held Jiang Suining's hand that was not holding the cup, "I have been keeping an eye on the Fourth Prince. He has not made any moves since he was reprimanded at the morning court that day. I have also sent people to protect the Jiang family. Don't worry, I will not let anything happen to you or the Jiang family."
Although the case has been concluded and those officials seem to have been punished, the investigation into the matter is still ongoing. For Ningning, the case is not over yet.
However, he could see that what was worrying Ning Ning the most right now was not this matter, but the worry that the Fourth Prince would take the opportunity to retaliate, and she was even more worried that the Jiang family would be implicated because of her.
The temperature of the tea was transmitted to his palm through the porcelain cup, making it warm. Jiang Suining smiled at Shen Yanxi, and the two of them stood at the bow of the boat, looking very well matched and pleasing to the eye.
Wei Yao and Jiang Mushi were sitting in the cabin watching this scene.
"Sui Ning and Lord Shen are really a perfect match, and they love each other. It's really enviable." Wei Yao said.
"Are they a good match?" Jiang Mushi looked at the two people's interlocked hands, feeling a little unhappy. "I think it's just okay. Besides, they haven't gotten married yet. Why are you holding hands? It's obvious that you're taking advantage of my sister again!"
"But they are an engaged couple."
It’s okay for engaged couples to be a little more intimate.
"But engaged couples don't necessarily have to hold hands." Jiang Mushi muttered.
Wei Yao looked at Jiang Mushi's unhappy expression and smiled, "I suddenly feel a little sympathetic towards Lord Shen."
"What's there for him to sympathize with?"
Wei Yao did not answer, but asked: "If one day you meet the girl you like, and you make an engagement, but her brother even wants to control you holding hands, how would you feel?"
Jiang Mushi did not answer immediately, his eyes unconsciously fell on Wei Yao's hand holding the teacup.
Wei Yao's hands are very slender, but with distinct joints and long fingers. Although there are calluses from long-term writing, they are still very beautiful.
Jiang Mushi's mind suddenly flashed with the image of himself holding Wei Yao's hand, and he was absorbed in thinking about it for a moment.
"Mu Shi? Master Jiang? Jiang Mu Shi!" Wei Yao called out several times before Jiang Mu Shi came back to his senses.
Realizing what he was thinking just now, Jiang Mushi suddenly felt a heat wave on his face, and even his ears began to feel hot.
"me……"
"What's wrong with you?" Wei Yao looked at Jiang Mushi's suddenly changed expression, "Did I ask a question that was too far-fetched? Sorry, I was just asking casually..."
"No, no, it's none of your business." Jiang Mushi denied it immediately. "I, I just feel a little hot suddenly. I'm going to the stern to get some fresh air."
As he spoke, Jiang Mushi stood up and walked towards the stern. He was a little flustered when he stood up and bumped into the small table placed at the stern of the cabin.
The table was knocked against the ground and something fell off...
