Chapter 138 - 69: Carry this Sedan Chair Back_2
Shi Fengju chuckled with a bit of embarrassment and said, "Actually, I only planned to rest in the study last night and regain my strength before returning to Ningyuan, but once I rested, I couldn’t get up!"
"Really?" Mrs. Wang’s skeptical eyes moved between the two, "You two didn’t have a fight, did you?"
"How could that be!" Shi Fengju laughed it off, and to prove it to Mrs. Wang, he gently placed his hand on Sang Wan’s shoulder and half embraced her, saying with a smile: "Miss Wan has such a gentle nature, how could she argue with me? Besides, your son isn’t that kind of person! We are doing well, aren’t we, Miss Wan?"
Sang Wan reluctantly looked up at him with a smile and nodded her head, "Mother, we really are fine!"
"Then that’s good!" Mrs. Wang finally felt relieved and impatiently said: "There’s been too much going on recently, and my mind is troubled. You two better not add to my worries!"
Shi Fengju and Sang Wan quickly agreed.
After leaving the main courtyard, Sang Wan noticed that Shi Fengju’s arm was still resting on her shoulder. She hesitated, then glanced at him with a look that combined irritation and reproach, making Shi Fengju’s heart warm. Afraid of angering her again, he awkwardly smiled and quickly withdrew his hand.
"I’m sorry, I’ve dragged you into this! Mother is just thoughtless when she speaks, but she’s actually kind-hearted. Don’t be mad!"
