Chapter 961: Pinned against the Door Once Again
When Song Yiyan and Jun Shiyan came over, they were also shocked by the picture opposite the elevator. It was quite a huge picture, and it looked like it was at least 20 inches wide.
Song Yiyan lowered her voice and could not help but ask curiously, “Why did Senior Huo hang his photo here?”
“It’s not him.” Jun Shiyan smiled and shook his head.
There was nothing strange about his father-in-law hanging his photo there. After all, there was nothing he would not do, only what others weren’t able to think of. The strange thing was that this was not his father-in-law, but his grandfather-in-law’s photo. Although the two of them looked very similar at first glance, one could still tell that his father-in-law was more photogenic than Grandpa upon close scrutiny.
Ling Sheng opened the door and saw the duo standing in front of the photo, scrutinizing it!
Upon seeing Ling Sheng come out of the house, Song Yiyan ran over excitedly. “Sheng Sheng, who’s this in the photo? The Third Master said it’s not Senior Huo.”
“My grandpa.” After saying that, Ling Sheng took a step back, wanting to distance herself from Song Yiyan. However, when she saw Little White Bunny’s hurt expression flash across her face, she could not bear to do it.
Ever since Song Yiyan had entered the house, she had been looking at the pictures and exclaiming nonstop. There were so many photographs! The whole house was full of photos. Afraid of strangers, she tugged at the corner of Ling Sheng’s shirt and asked in a soft voice, “Why did your grandpa hang so many photos?”
Ling Sheng was too embarra.s.sed to say that her grandpa had gotten jealous, so he deliberately hung the photos up to show her grandma his stunning beauty during his youth. She changed the subject. “Is he handsome?”
Song Yiyan nodded vigorously, and even her voice became a few decibels louder. “Handsome!”
When Huo Xiao came over to welcome her, he happened to hear this. His face bloomed with happiness as he looked at Song Yiyan. “You’re Old Song’s daughter, right? You’re really pretty and lively.”
Song Yiyan smiled shyly and greeted him. “h.e.l.lo, Grandpa Huo.”
“Sheng Sheng was just saying that she is so bored at home. You should come over often to play with her in the future. She’s pregnant, so she has to stay at home to take care of the baby inside her. She can’t go out.” As soon as Huo Xiao finished speaking, he coughed again. He realized that he had said something wrong and stole a look at his dear granddaughter.
On the other end, Song Yiyan was stunned. Her eyes widened suddenly as her voice rose. “What? You’re pregnant?”
Ling Sheng was rendered speechless. This is embarra.s.sing. She stepped forward to cover her mouth. “Lower your voice. I’m not deaf. I can hear you.”
After she spoke, she saw a certain big-tailed male wolf walking toward the sofa to pay his respects to his father-in-law. He stopped in his tracks and the corner of his lips lifted into a happy smile.
Huo Xiao hurriedly gave an instruction to salvage his mistake of leaking the secret. “Song Family’s child, you must not tell anyone. My dear granddaughter’s pregnancy is a secret. Shh!”
Song Yiyan had not expected to hear such explosive news when she had only come to find Ling Sheng. However, being pregnant is a good thing! Having a baby is a joyous occasion! She nodded seriously and promised that she definitely would not reveal it. She even made a zipping motion with her mouth.
During this period of time, Ling Sheng had already wanted to shout out loud countless times. I’m not pregnant! I’m not pregnant! I want to go out! I want to work! I don’t want to be a rice worm[1] at home anymore!
However, from the looks of it, the current situation seemed to be getting more and more complicated. The longer this dragged on, the more people knew too.
Although she had told everyone not to tell anyone else about her pregnancy, who knew how long this secret could be kept? Her grandpa had already let it slip from a short bout of delight.
Jun Shiyan greeted Huo Ci.
Huo Ci ignored him. After saying a few words to Song Yiyan, he took the script and returned to his room.
Song Yiyan took a look at the situation in front of her and brooded inwardly. Senior Huo doesn’t seem to like the Third Master at all.
Ever since Song Yiyan had found out that Ling Sheng was pregnant, her eyes kept sparkling as she stared at her stomach. She even asked her quietly, “In that case, when are you two getting married? You have to be quick. Otherwise, you won’t look good in a wedding dress with a large stomach. People will laugh at you.”
Ling Sheng had not expected Little White Bunny to know quite so much. However, her stomach wasn’t able to grow bigger. Without the goods, how could it grow? She could only hum in reply. “Don’t tell me you came over just to see me!”
Song Yiyan shook her head honestly and looked at her pleadingly. “Can you go shopping with me?”
Ling Sheng was actually against it internally. She really did not want to be with her. It would not be good if she caused another reaction. She had already decided not to come into contact with Si Chengluo and Little White Bunny before she regained her memory.
Upon seeing Song Yiyan’s pitiful look, Huo Xiao smiled at Ling Sheng and spoke up for her. “My dear granddaughter, you can accompany her then.”
Ling Sheng looked at her grandpa. In any case, she could not be together with Song Yiyan. It would be best if she could be chased away quickly, but she could not display her intentions too obviously. She touched her stomach, looking put on the spot. “But Grandpa, I can’t go out. My mom will nag again when she finds out.”
“It’s fine, go ahead. You can’t keep staying at home. What if you suffocate from boredom?” Huo Xiao thought she was afraid of her mother and comforted her. “Don’t worry. If your mother dares to find trouble with you, get her to come and look for me first.”
Ling Sheng said, “Grandpa.”
Huo Xiao patted her hand. “Get Third Master Jun to go with the two of you and protect you. Just don’t b.u.mp into anything.”
Jun Shiyan agreed. When he saw that the young lady was wholeheartedly against going, his brows furrowed slightly. The young lady had complained to him every day that she was going to get sick from putting on a show at home. She wanted to self-destruct 100 times a day, but now that she had a chance to go out and get some fresh air, why did she seem unwilling to leave?
Ling Sheng had no choice. Faced with her grandpa and Little White Bunny’s double attack, she did not dare reveal anything with her behavior. Little White Bunny was sensitive by nature. If she rejected her again, she would hurt her heart.
When they reached the elevator and no one was keeping an eye on him like a thief anymore, Jun Shiyan lowered his lids slightly and bent down to lean against the young lady’s ear. In a low voice, he asked, “You don’t want to go out?”
Upon seeing the duo whispering to each other, Song Yiyan retreated to a corner of the elevator sensibly. She shrank her body and tried her best to reduce her presence.
It was not that Ling Sheng did not want to go out. She just did not want to go out with Song Yiyan, fearing that something would happen. However, she felt stifled as she could not say it. She pursed her lips and shook her head.
Jun Shiyan patted her tiny head comfortingly. It was not that the young lady did not want to go out, nor did she dislike Song Yiyan. Then, why did she oppose going out with her?
Song Yiyan had asked Ling Sheng to go shopping with her to choose a birthday present for her grandpa. It was her grandpa’s 80th birthday at the end of the month.
On the way there, Ling Sheng had already thought it through. Since she could not refuse her, she would let nature take its course then. She would not care about anything anymore and just shop to her heart’s content.
When girls shopped together, it was not as simple as just choosing a birthday present. Cosmetics, clothes, bags, and jewelry were all irresistible temptations for girls. As they were choosing away, they arrived at a clothing store.
“Third Master, do these outfits look nice?” Ling Sheng gestured at the clothes she placed in front of her one by one and looked at the man opposite her excitedly.
“Yes.” Jun Shiyan nodded, his eyes full of smiles and indulgence. His young lady naturally looked good in anything.
“Then, I’ll go and try them on.” Ling Sheng hugged the clothes excitedly and ran to the fitting room.
A woman’s closet would always lack a piece of clothing. This was definitely a wise saying.
However, when she reached the fitting room and had just put the clothes down, the door was suddenly pushed open before she could lock the door.
When Song Yiyan entered, she was carrying the aura of a mature lady. Forceful and domineering, she pinned her right against the wall of the fitting room again.
