Ever since Shangguan Jianyang left in anger that day, he only returned to the Shangguan family two days later. However, he did not return to his room.
For the past week, Xin Chulian had been staying in his room alone in silence. She had not eaten a single meal and had not had a normal diet. Mei Sen had called her a few times outside the door, but she had always rejected him with the excuse that she had no appetite.
She realized that she needed to give herself some time to think calmly. It would be best for her if Young Master stopped looking for her. But why was there an inexplicable desire in her heart? She longed to see him and feel his warm body, and that desire made her feel so painful.
Xin Chulian lay on the bed. She had missed lunchtime today and refused the food that Mei Sen had sent her. She just wanted to be alone and quiet.
When he didn't come back for the past two days, she waited for him without sleeping. When she finally saw him, he didn't even step into the room as if he didn't want to see her again. Was that what he thought?
He did not impulsively possess her body to vent his anger like before. Instead, he chose to avoid her.
Thinking about the physical pain, she felt very embarrassed compared to now.
Was he angry because she didn't tell him that she wasn't feeling well that day?
Was that why he didn't want to see her again?
Then shouldn't she know her limits and move out of his room quickly? Otherwise, when someone came to tell her that this room no longer belonged to her and asked her to leave immediately, wouldn't it be very embarrassing?
As she thought about it, her tears fell uncontrollably. Just as she raised her hand to wipe her tears, the door was opened.
"Brother Jianyang! I'm back." A delicate female voice came along with the sound of the door opening.
Xin Chulian quickly turned her head to see who it was.
The woman also looked at her in disbelief, as if she was a monster.
"Who are you?" The woman questioned her in a rather harsh tone.
Xin Chulian stood up nervously and tugged at her clothes.
She recognized the person who had come in. She was Master Shangguan's adopted daughter, Lin Yufei. She had been studying in Switzerland and rarely returned to Taiwan. She did not expect that she would suddenly return without telling everyone.
"Hello, Miss." Xin Chulian greeted her politely.
"Who are you? Why are you in Jianyang gege's room?”Lin Yufei asked again.
Xin Chulian looked at Lin Yufei nervously. "My name is Xin Chulian." She did not dare to say that she was a servant of the Shangguan family.
A servant could not enter the master's room at will, not to mention that she was lying on his bed just now.
"Xin Chulian? Why are you in Jianyang's room?”Lin Yufei approached her and sized her up. Lin Yufei didn't recognize her because she lived outside all year round. She didn't know how many people in the Shangguan family walked around. Moreover, Xin Chulian wasn't wearing a maid's uniform, so she couldn't recognize her.
" I am…I…" Xin Chulian was still at a loss for words when a familiar voice sounded.
"Miss, Aunt Furen invites you to her room.”Mei Sen said in a neither servile nor overbearing manner.
He had saved her again. Xin Chulian heaved a sigh of relief and looked at him, grateful for his appearance.
"Who is she?" Lin Yufei pointed at Xin Chulian and asked Mei Sen.
"She is Young Master's guest. I am responsible for her safety.”Mei Sen didn't want to tell her about the relationship between Xin Chulian and the young master. It would hurt Xin Chulian greatly.
She was a guest, and Brother Jianyang wanted Mei Sen to protect her? Lin Yufei stared at Xin Chulian, but when she saw Mei Sen's dark face, her face immediately turned red. Mei Sen was Brother Jianyang's bodyguard. When she went to America to look for Brother Jianyang, she had met him once. She had always been unable to forget him and placed him in her heart.
"Guest?"
She wanted to ask more questions, but Mei Sen didn't give her the chance.
"Uncle is looking for you very urgently. You should go quickly!”He had a hunch that Lin Xiangfei's return this time was definitely related to Xin Chulian because Young Master Ren Yang had also returned.
"I understand." Lin Yufei left unhappily, but before she left, she asked Mei Sen,"Where's Brother Jianyang? Is he not here?" She hadn't seen him for a long time and hadn't called him for a long time, so she really wanted to see Brother Yang.
"He's not at home. He might be looking for a friend.”Mei Sen was very reserved as she didn't want Xin Chulian to be sad.
"Oh!" After hearing this, Lin Yufei left.
Xin Chulian didn't say anything from the beginning until Lin Yufei left. She then asked Mei Sen carefully,
"Mei Sen, should I move back to my room?”
Since the young mistress had returned, she must not let her find out that she was staying in the young master's room. Moreover, Butler Jiang had also said that if the young mistress returned, she did not have to accompany the young master anymore.
"No." Mei Sen didn't expect her to say that. The young master did not want to chase her away. According to his personality, if he really did not like that person, he would tell her directly instead of dragging things out. Therefore, he knew that there must be something going on.
"But I think it's better not to let uncle know.”
"Uncle only came back because he knew. It's the same whether you leave or not.”Mei Sen replied.
Seeing Xin Chulian's worried face, he said,""Everything should wait for Young Master to return. Young Master Ren Yang has already informed him.”
Was that so? Xin Chulian thought gloomily.
Mei Sen was actually worried about her health. He realized that Young Master had not taken any medicine after he had taken her, and she had not taken any medicine either. Young Master had just left her alone. Perhaps she was already pregnant with the Shangguan family's child.
If that was really the case, how would Young Master plan to resolve this? Should she leave or marry her? However, the chances of marrying her were not high.
She was afraid that the young master would want her to abort the child and leave the Shangguan family. Such a double blow was too great for her. Moreover, her uncle had returned, and she was in a very dangerous situation.
Shangguan Jianyang was currently in his study.
Shangguan Renyang was also sitting in the study. Seeing Shangguan Jianyang's calm face, he knew that he should say something for himself.
"Jianyang, Aunt Xiang's return has absolutely nothing to do with me.”Because he wouldn't find something to do for no reason. It wasn't that he didn't understand how much Jianyang disliked her.
Moreover, he had only planned to come back and take a look before returning to Japan. He did not expect Aunt Xiang to coincidentally return as well. What was even more coincidental was that she was on the same flight back to Taiwan as him. No wonder Jianyang was suspicious of him.
"I don't need to explain what I did to anyone. It doesn't matter if she comes back or not.”Shangguan Jianyang was obviously unhappy that someone had tipped him off. Needless to say, that person must be Butler Jiang.
He had not seen Xin Chulian for a few days. He did not know if she was doing well, but he did it on purpose. Because he realized that the more he was by her side, the more obsessed his heart became. He couldn't help but want to care for her. He was surprised that he was happy because she was happy and worried because she was uncomfortable. His heart was moved by her. This was not his original intention. He only wanted her and did not need anything else.
"Jianyang, don't be so angry. We can discuss this slowly. Xin Chulian is still a girl. She's not married yet. It's not good for her to do this.”Shangguan Renyang advised Shangguan Jianyang tactfully.
"Where's Aunt Xiang? She was so calm that she wasn't worried at all that someone would steal Yufei's position.”Aunty Xiang had already said that she wanted to marry Yufei to him, but he only had sibling feelings for Yufei, so he would never marry her. No matter how much he loved Yufei, she would always be his little sister.
"Aunt Xiang is very tired and is resting now.”
"Ren Yang, you should know that I've never liked Aunt Xiang, so I don't want her to interfere in my matters.”Moreover, it was his personal matter.
"Then how do you want to solve it?" Shangguan Renyang asked.
"Wait until I think of it." He was waiting for the results.
"What about her?" Shangguan Renyang was referring to Xin Chulian.
"In my room." Shangguan Jianyang said without hesitation.
"You said she lives in your room? Did I hear wrongly?" Shangguan Renyang had a look of disbelief.
"Yes, she stayed in my room the day after you left.”He wasn't afraid of others knowing.
"What about Aunt Xiang?" Shangguan Renyang was worried for him.
"Ignore her. As long as she doesn't ask, pretend it's nothing.”
Shangguan Renyang could guess how angry Aunt Xiang would be if she found out. It seemed that Jianyang was serious this time. In fact, Jian Yang had already told Aunt Xiang that he would not marry Yufei, but Aunt Xiang did not give up and insisted that they become a couple. It was no wonder that Jian Yang did not have a good impression of her.
Since the person involved said that he could solve it, it was better for him not to interfere.
When he returned this time, Shangguan Renyang realized that when Shangguan Jianyang talked about Xin Chulian, his face was no longer possessive. There was also a faint smile, a gentle smile that rarely appeared on his face. He had a hunch that Jian Yang already had a good impression of the girl, so he didn't want to say anything more.
Now, he wanted to get to know Xin Chulian.
Lin Xiangfei paced in her room as she pondered. She couldn't offend Jianyang, or else Yufei's life would be over. However, she could not accept that Jian Yang had hidden a woman in his room! For Yufei, she couldn't let another woman steal Jianyang away. She had spent a lot of effort to nurture Yufei, and Yufei was already 21 years old…
"Mom, don't keep walking. I'm getting dizzy.”Lin Yufei really couldn't stand her mother walking around like this, and she felt very strange. Why didn't she inform her mother in advance this time? Instead, she came back quietly?
"Yufei, don't bother mom. Mom is thinking about how to convince Jianyang to leave that slut.”
"Slut?"
Lin Xiangfei regretted being soft-hearted and letting Xin Chulian stay. She should have asked her to leave. The Shangguan family did not lack her money. But now, she actually seduced Jianyang. It was really better than God's plan!
"Are you the guest in Jianyang's room?”Lin Yufei thought of Xin Chulian. That woman looked younger than her and should be only in her teens.
"Yufei, have you seen her before?" Lin Xiangfei immediately sat down and held her daughter's hand.
"I saw someone in Brother Jianyang's room, but I'm not sure.”Moreover, Mei Sen only said that she was a guest and didn't say that she was Jianyang gege's woman!
"Did she say her name?”
"Xin Chulian."
These three words made Lin Xiangfei's face turn even uglier.
"That's it." Lin Xiangfei's eyes flashed with a cold light.
Lin Yufei didn't say anything else. She was afraid of her mother's gaze because it meant that someone else would be unlucky.
"I must chase her away!" Lin Xiangfei sized him up in her heart and began to plan her plan.
Lin Yufei only saw Shangguan Jianyang at dinnertime. She immediately rushed forward excitedly and hugged him.
"Brother Jianyang, I miss you so much!" Lin Yufei knew that Shangguan Jianyang doted on her, but she knew very well that it was not the love between a man and a woman, but the relationship between siblings.
"Yufei, you've become prettier." Lin Yufei was indeed charming. Not only did she have the noble temperament of a rich young lady, but her every move was full of femininity. What was even more rare was that she had an outstanding face and a tall figure.
Lin Yufei was very happy with his praise, but she hoped that Yang gege would look at her from a woman's point of view.
"Jianyang gege, can you accompany me these few days?”When everyone was seated and ready to eat, Lin Yufei asked Shangguan Jianyang expectantly.
This was the method her mother had thought of for her. She wanted her to invite Brother Yang out tomorrow, and her mother would directly confront that woman called Xin Chulian. Although she did not like it, she did not dare to go against her mother's words.
"Wah, Yufei, you're biased. Why didn't you ask Brother Ren Yang to accompany you?”Shangguan Renyang joked.
Lin Yufei's personality was very direct, straightforward, and likable. It was too difficult for her brothers not to love her. Jianyang especially treasured her because she was his only sister.
"Then, Brother Ren Yang, let's go out and play together tomorrow!”Lin Yufei immediately changed her words with a smile. Anyway, her mother didn't say that as long as she went out with Jianyang gege, it shouldn't be a problem.
"I don't want it." A mischievous smile appeared on Shangguan Renyang's face.
"How could you do this!" Lin Yufei was very unhappy with Ren Yang's teasing.
Actually, it wasn't that Shangguan Renyang didn't want to go. He also doted on Yufei, but he wanted to use more time to get to know Xin Chulian. He thought that he would see her at the dining table, but he didn't expect that Jian Yang wouldn't let her appear. Instead, he arranged for her to eat in the room, so he couldn't talk to her more.
"Jianyang, you can rest for a day tomorrow.”Shangguan Renyang didn't want to lose the chance to pamper Yufei. She lived in Switzerland all year round, and unless they came looking for her, it was very difficult to see her. Moreover, he had another motive.
Lin Xiangfei didn't say anything from the beginning to the end. She just smiled as she watched her daughter get along well with them. She was very satisfied with this. At least Jianyang didn't hate Yufei. It was only a matter of time. When he realized how good Yufei was, he would cherish her.
"If Jianyang is very busy, there's no need. Yufei, let's go out another day." Lin Xiangfei came out at the right time to smooth things over. If she guessed correctly, Jianyang would still agree.
"No, I'm free tomorrow." He had wanted to accompany Xin Chulian for a walk. He was afraid that she would fall sick from staying in his room all day. Mei Sen also said that she had a bad appetite these days and often did not eat.
If it wasn't for the fact that he wanted to give face to Aunt Xiang and not disappoint Yufei, he would have wanted to have dinner with her and at the same time let Mei Sen see what was wrong with her.
However, he couldn't bear to ruin Yufei's mood. He would never reject any of her requests, except for marrying her.
Shangguan Jianyang only stepped into his room at night.
He hadn't seen her for a week, and whenever he saw her, he couldn't help but get angry. It seemed that every time he saw her, he was angry. There was never a time when he was happy or smiling at her.
Did she not eat anything? Why did he look so awful? He seemed to have lost a lot of weight, and his face had become pointy.
"Are you planning to starve yourself to death?" Shangguan Jianyang growled.
Xin Chulian had been staring at him since he entered the room. She thought that he would still go out tonight, but she did not expect him to come looking for her.
"Young Master." As she watched him approach her step by step, her heart beat faster and faster.
"I'm asking you if you haven't eaten yet.”He pulled her waist and realized that her already slender waist had become even thinner.
"Yes, I did." It was just not much. Leaning against his chest, she was actually so satisfied. It was a pity that this chest could not belong to her forever.
She did not know if he would sleep here tonight. She had been having nightmares every night these past few nights, waking her up in the middle of the night. She really wanted a shoulder to lean on and a warm chest to hug, but she did not dare to tell him.
"Young Master." She looked up at Shangguan Jianyang.
"What is it?"
"Are you angry with me?" She tried to ask him because she really didn't understand why.
When Shangguan Jianyang heard her words, he could not help but smile. That smile was very charming. "What do you think?"
"Yes." She thought that there was, which was why Young Master avoided her.
Shangguan Jianyang cupped her face and stared at her. "I am indeed angry." His words made her eyes darken. "But it's already in the past."
After Shangguan Jianyang finished speaking, he seemed to have thought of something and said,"You sleep first. I still have some things to deal with later.”
The moment he saw her, the desire he had hidden for many days was awakened again. He had not touched her for a week, but his desire for her had not subsided at all. Even other women could not replace her. This had never happened before. Therefore, he didn't want her when she was not feeling well.
"Yes." Xin Chulian nodded, but in her heart, she thought that he no longer wanted her.
"I'm going out with Yufei tomorrow and Mei Sen is going too. You have to be careful at home.”Shangguan Jianyang did not understand why he told her where he was going, but the words came out of his mouth so naturally.
His words made her lower her head in disappointment and not say another word. She had always accepted everything he said. After Shangguan Jianyang left, she lay on the bed and closed her eyes quietly, but tears kept flowing from the corners of her eyes. The faint sound of tears made the room seem even more desolate, and it also made her hate herself for falling in love with the young master. She shouldn't and wasn't worthy of it. Now, she could only lick her wounds by herself…#
