"Are you okay?" At some point, a large hand had reached out and held out a handkerchief.

An Ruoyun heard and wiped away her tears. Raising her eyes, she saw that the one standing in front of him was the driver, Lu Yuan. Her last bit of hope was dashed as she rebuked in her heart: "What are you doing here, didn't you ask me to wait outside?"

After being washed away by the tears, the exquisite makeup on her face had been reduced by more than half. Adding to that, due to the rumors surrounding Shen Geng, she hadn't had a good rest for the past few days. Her originally delicate face now only remained terrified and haggard.

"Miss, I haven't seen you outside for a long time. I was worried about you, so I came in to look for you." Lu Yuan explained. Because An Ruoyun had not received his handkerchief from the beginning, her other hand was still suspended in the air, not letting go. "Miss, please wipe your tears!"

Although he didn't know what had happened, his expression was exceptionally solemn.

"Who asked you to mind your own business? "Go out and wait for me!"

An Ruoyun wanted to berate angrily, but her crying voice was hoarse, the voice she let out was also incomparably hoarse, causing Lu Yuan's brows to knit even more tightly together.

Seeing that she still had no intention of taking the handkerchief, he couldn't help but raise his hand to wipe her tears.

He gently wiped the depths of her eyes. His actions were very small, as if he was wiping away a priceless antique vase. The expression in his eyes was both precious and lovable.

"Scram! Who let you touch me, I can wipe myself!" An Ruoyun reacted and took the handkerchief from his hand, angrily kicking him, but she nimbly dodged it.

"Don't move!" Lu Yuan's tone rose a little, and then took the handkerchief back from his hand, "If you can't see, I'll help you wipe it!"

An Ruoyun wanted to retort, but she didn't have the strength.

That's good too, if this sort of thing wasn't done by the servants, wouldn't their family have raised another rice bucket?

"Thank you for accompanying me out. I think Uncle Shen will like this wine." In the car, Gu Hanxue who was sitting in the front seat laughed.

Early in the morning, she was invited by Shen Geng as expected. She did not miss this chance and insisted on bringing Shen Geng along to buy red wine, creating a period of time for them to be alone together.

She knew that even if Shen Geng was gay, she had to declare her authority and let everyone know that the young master of Shen Family was now Gu Hanxue's fiance.

She used the sweet facade on the surface to cover up the aftermath of the scandal from last time. It was perfect, she wanted to let those people see clearly who Shen Geng was holding hands with in front of all these people.

"No need. Actually, we have a wine cellar at home." Shen Geng's gaze was still fixed on the road ahead, his indifferent tone still not showing any mercy.

"It doesn't matter. Actually, Shen Hang being able to come back is the best present for Uncle Shen." Gu Hanxue was not angry, and skillfully gave him a perfect answer.

Shen Geng didn't speak, but others could clearly feel that the aura exuding from his body was spreading towards a frighteningly dark and gloomy direction, and his deep black eyes revealed a dark glow.

Gu Hanxue did not understand, why did his expression seem to have turned colder? Did she say something wrong?

When she saw that he didn't say anything, she didn't say anything either. The atmosphere in the car was terrifyingly quiet along the way.

When they were about two hundred meters away from the old house in Shen Family, they could see that the place was brightly lit, with all the lanterns and lamps lit, it was so bright that people were not used to it.

After getting down from the carriage, the villa's door was not closed. Shen Geng took a glance at the great hall, his gaze becoming sharper and steadier as he walked forward with steady steps.

"Shen Geng, wait for me!" Gu Hanxue held onto the red wine bottle, and seeing that he had stopped in her tracks, she very naturally reached out and grabbed the crook of his arm.

This was already the second time today, so Shen Geng didn't really understand her motives. After last night's incident, her attitude didn't seem to have changed much, and she acted as if nothing had happened.

He couldn't help but size Gu Hanxue up. Other than her perfection and delicacy, he couldn't find a third word to describe her.

"Let's go!" Gu Hanxue felt the gaze from him, and reminded him with a smile.

"The two of you really arrived on time. Our protagonist of today actually arrived even earlier than you!" Upon entering, Old Man Shen could not help but reprimand them. He swept his eyes across the two standing side by side with a satisfied smile on his face, "Is that so? That's what you call it!"

"As long as you're happy." Shen Geng replied indifferently.

"Hey, you stinking brat, can't you say something that I want to hear …" Facing the neither cold nor hot Shen Geng, when Old Man Shen was about to start his lecture mode, he was interrupted by a clear voice.

"Brother!" "You're here?" Shen Hang held a purple clay teapot in his hand, his face was filled with a smile, and was brimming with the joy of reuniting after a long time.

Shen Geng looked towards the direction the voice came from. A few years of living abroad had not changed his appearance much, he still had a handsome and handsome face, and on that face, there was still the same smile that he hated the most. The long scar on the arm holding the teapot, was especially obvious and shocking on his fair skin.

"Yes." His eyes were filled with the indifference that Nan Yi had described, as if he was looking at the air.

Gu Hanxue did not mind, she only thought that it was Shen Geng's other expression of arrogance, that only the Old Man Shen understood.

He opened his mouth slightly, wanting to say something, but gave up.

"Aiya, Big Brother, you're still as cold as ever! Since everyone is here, let's not drink tea anymore. The nanny has already prepared dinner! " Shen Hang laughed as if nothing had happened and supported Old Man Shen towards the dining table.

The preparation for dinner was extremely sumptuous; a large table was filled with the liver of a dried bird and delicious delicacies, yet Shen Geng did not have any appetite. Instead, he inexplicably missed the regular dishes he ate at his own home.

"Dad, this is for you!" Happy Birthday! " Once Old Man Shen sat down, Shen Hang took out an exquisite box from underneath the seat.

Old Man Shen was startled at first, then a surprised smile surfaced on his face, "I didn't think you would remember my birthday! I am so considerate! "

When Shen Geng heard it, he frowned. He finally realized that he had been too busy and had completely forgotten about his father's birthday. To be precise, he had never remembered his father's birthday once before.

"I'm your son. Of course I can remember your birthday. Take it apart and have a look, do you like it?" Shen Hang said as a matter of fact. He intentionally swept a glance at Shen Geng, and the smile on his face became wider.

"The blue and white porcelain bottles from the Qianlong period!" Old Man Shen exclaimed, his eyes staring straight ahead. This antique had been taken by someone several years ago, and he had always wanted it. He never thought that Shen Hang would bring it back for him.

"It seems like you are quite filial, you even know what kind of antique I like!" "That's right!" He happily patted Shen Hang's shoulders.

"No, I just spent a little bit of effort on it. If you like it, that's all!" Shen Hang's words made the Old Man Shen extremely happy, as wrinkles appeared on his face.

"Uncle Shen, I wasn't as diligent as you, Shen Hang. On the way here, I remembered that you like to drink this brand of red wine, so I bought it. Seeing that, Gu Hanxue hurriedly said.
