Chapter 525: Parting Unhappily (4)
Shangguan Wenbin was talking while pulling Jiang Xue’s hand, ready to head out. Just then, a large hand suddenly extended out of nowhere, grabbing his and saying, "Where are you taking Xue’er?"
Seeing the unexpected hand and hearing the voice filled with coldness, Shangguan Wenbin jolted and then looked up.
When he saw that the person grabbing him was Mu Qiancheng, he immediately put on a sycophantic smile and said, "Hello, brother-in-law!"
"Answer the question, where are you taking Xue’er?" Mu Qiancheng looked at Shangguan Wenbin with some displeasure. Although he was Jiang Xue’s brother, seeing his hand on Jiang Xue made him feel uncomfortable.
"No, nowhere!" Shangguan Wenbin was stunned and momentarily didn’t react.
But his answer made Mu Qiancheng very dissatisfied, and he shot him a sharp look, exuding an invisible pressure.
Shangguan Wenbin, under pressure, was almost in tears. He felt like he hadn’t done anything wrong, so why was his brother-in-law treating him like this?
However, Jiang Xue sensed that Mu Qiancheng was jealous, so she smiled and asked, "Wenbin, what did you come to find me for?"
With this question, Shangguan Wenbin finally snapped out of it and smiled, saying, "Sister, the car I ordered for you has arrived, it’s downstairs, I’ll take you to see it."
"The car’s here, so soon?" Jiang Xue was a bit surprised. Although Shangguan Wenbin had told her that the car would come in these two days, she didn’t expect it to arrive so quickly.
"Yes!" Shangguan Wenbin nodded, then tried to reach for Jiang Xue again. But before his hand could touch her, he felt the sharp gaze of a certain someone and had to pull it back, saying to Jiang Xue, "Let’s go, Sis!"
Jiang Xue nodded, turned her head to look at Mu Qiancheng, and asked, "Do you want to come and take a look?"
Mu Qiancheng nodded faintly, though he felt quite shocked. He didn’t expect Shangguan Wenbin would order a car for Jiang Xue.
He knew about Jiang Xue learning to drive but didn’t realize she’d get a car so soon. It seemed he, as her husband, wasn’t attentive enough to Jiang Xue.
Mu Qiancheng followed behind them, holding Little Reunion, as they went downstairs. Once there, they indeed saw a silver-white car parked under the building.
"Sister, see if you like it?" Shangguan Wenbin looked at Jiang Xue with a face full of delight, as he had specifically ordered this car for her.
Jiang Xue glanced at the car and her face lit up with a smile. The color of the car was her favorite, the model was also to her liking, but she wondered about the features inside.
While thinking this, Shangguan Wenbin extended his hand revealing the car keys in his palm, and said, "Sister, give it a try."
"Okay!" Jiang Xue didn’t hesitate, took the keys, and opened the car door. Just as the door opened and before Jiang Xue could sit inside, Mu Qiancheng, holding the child, sat in first.
He took over the front passenger seat, leaving Shangguan Wenbin, who was about to get in, speechless and having to sit in the back.
Mu Qiancheng, ignoring Shangguan Wenbin’s inner frustration, said to Jiang Xue once inside, "Don’t worry, I’m here!"
These words instantly calmed the slightly uneasy Jiang Xue, who then inserted the key and started the car.
Jiang Xue drove out of the residential area and onto the main road. Mu Qiancheng, holding the child, watched Jiang Xue’s somewhat unfamiliar movements, smiled slightly, and said, "Xue’er, don’t be nervous. Just think of it as practice driving."
"Okay!" Jiang Xue nodded, slowly relaxing. After driving a while, her actions became increasingly skillful.
Mu Qiancheng watched, a look of satisfaction on his face. His wife was doing great!
