Chapter 63 - 63 Good Wife...

"Sheng Ruming has come."

"Mr. Sheng has finally arrived."

"I thought he wouldn't come. I was wrong."

"Young master Sheng must have been busy. Not everyone is as free as you."

Many people spoke one after another as the man made his way towards them. The three cars behind him drove away and stopped at the marked parking site. Xiao Huang was following him as he went to his mother first. 

Wei Airan immediately walked up to him as she grasped her long gown; leaving the other women behind her. But the group of people didn't follow her as they gave her some privacy.

"Son, you have finally come." Wei Airan asked as he observed her son. 'Hmm, he is becoming more handsome day by day. I just hope he will get the treatment soon and marry an outstanding lady. I will choose the most perfect girl for him.' As that thought her face lit up in happiness. 

When she saw Xiao Huang her smile deepened as she spoke up, "Ah! Xiao Huang, you also come. I have arranged many things. Before returning, make sure to eat."

"Thank, madam." The stone-faced bodyguard replied professionally.

"Ma, was it you who arranged it?" Sheng Ruming asked in displeasure. He just agreed because of Yan Luhan's persistence. He thought since this would be a little get-together between brothers, he could just come and spend some minutes before returning. But now looking at the crowd of people made him feel like  his headache was returning.

"Yes. It was me. Why? Don't you like it? See, many people have come to see you. Before going to a far place, you should meet your relatives and friends. It's courtesy. It's not like you are going for a short time." While walking on the lane side by side with him, she advised gently.

"Or perhaps, you are angry." She joked while increasing her pace.

"I am not. It is just that why did you arrange for a gathering in the 'Yan' farmhouse for me? It is not our place."

"Oh! Come on. They are our friends. Also, I was sure you would have disagreed if I had told you about arranging a gathering in our place."

Sheng Ruming stopped as he gazed down on his mother. "Even if I have disagreed, next time don't do something like that. They are our friends. There should be always a boundary between us."

Even if madam Sheng didn't like the tone he was speaking with, she didn't interrupt him as it was her fault.

"I just wanted to inform the other three families but somehow the news was leaked. When others called me, I couldn't refuse them." She didn't say anything further as they were nearing other people. While Xiao Huang was following them behind.

Sheng Ruming noticed the familiar people were coming towards them. He waved his hand to signal Xiao Huang to go away. 

"You should go and greet them properly. All of us were waiting for you for a long time." Wei Airan told him. He nodded as he walked away and inched in towards the people. Among them one woman was showing him an adoring look, though she was composed, he noticed it right away as it was quite fake. Though she seemed familiar, he ignored her as he moved his line of sight towards Ji Yanli.

Ji Yanli always wore professional dresses whenever she went to any gathering or business parties after she had entered the Sheng Industry and Corporation. She appeared different after he saw her in that traditional dress.

Yan Ruomin's face turned gloomy as she noticed him ignoring her. It was so obvious that she felt helpless.

"Ah Ming, you have finally arrived." Yan Ruomin turned her head when she heard the intimate way Ji Yanli was talking.

"Yanli, what did you do to your hair?" Sheng Ruming saw she had cut out her long hairs. Now it only reached till her back. He felt pity as he saw the short hair. The whole person seemed different now.

"Heh! You only noticed it now? The workload of the company was huge. I had no time to take care of my hair so I lost many of them. In the end, I could only cut them short." When talking about that, her mind became worse. That time was like hell.

"Oh! You look beautiful." Sheng Ruming tried to console her by saying it. But deep down he was thinking otherwise. 'She is looking so strange. I won't let my Lixi cut her hair ever.' He remembered the time when Luo Lixi was in a coma, the soft feeling in his hand when he used to play with her hair.

When Ji Yanli saw his gentle expression, Luo Lixi's face immediately came before her eyes. The things she heard on the phone floated in her mind.'Did they…?' Her mind began to think about some indecent things but the surrounding people assumed something different.

Sheng Haotin walked beside his wife who was observing the situation. When she felt someone came beside her, she turned around. When she saw it was her husband, she returned to spy on them.

"What are you looking at?"

"Ah Hao, don't you think something is different when our son is talking with Yanli."The gentle smile on his son's face gave her an illusion that he liked the woman in front of him. But in the past, he only showed a friendly attitude before them. She couldn't miss the slight loving look her son had on his face.

Sheng Haotin placed his hands behind as he saw Sheng Ruming.

"I didn't think before but Yanli would be a good wife for our son. They know each other and Ruming treats her well." Wei Airan talked alone as she observed them from a little distance.

"Hmm." Sheng Haotin also thought that it would be good to have a daughter-in-law like her. She had everything from every angle. Be it education, look or family background. They stood there while Sheng Ruming's group went far away.
