He is too well-behaved

Chapter 19: I just think you look old

　　"beep."

　　The call is connected.

　　"Hey, Shen Shen."

　　Shen Gusi was sitting alone in a seat in the restaurant. The sunlight coming in through the window behind him stretched his back very long, and it fell on the white floor tiles, spreading out into a black shadow.

　　Looks very lonely.

　　"Are you leaving? I've already prepared the meal, are you not going to eat?"

　　Shen Gusi tried his best not to sound too disappointed. He looked at the plate of braised spareribs that was gradually losing its heat. Just like his heart, it was also cooling down a little bit.

　　He didn't have too high expectations. A few years had taught him how to face Xu Jiashen without expectations.

　　But sometimes I can't help but feel disappointed.

　　"I'm busy and can't eat. You can eat it yourself. I'm hanging up now."

　　After Xu Jiashen finished speaking on the other end of the phone, he hung up in a hurry without giving Shen Gusi a chance to speak again.

　　Shen Gusi put down his phone and the screen returned to the main page. The call lasted less than a minute from start to finish.

　　Maybe Shen Shen was really too busy and was in a hurry to deal with it, so it was her fault for cooking too slowly.

　　But I didn't even have time to eat a single bite. I didn't know if I would get hungry while working, or if there was anyone to take care of me. What if I was so busy that I forgot to eat and my stomach got hungry?

　　Until this moment, Shen Gusi was still worried about Xu Jiashen.

　　——

　　Xu Jiashen's car drove into the Xu family manor and stopped in the courtyard.

　　His mother called him just now, and she didn't say anything in a hurry, but just asked him to go back to the manor as soon as possible.

　　"Uncle Wang, what happened at home? Where is my mother?"

　　After entering the house, Xu Jiashen took off his coat and threw it to Uncle Wang who came to greet him, then quickly walked towards the stairs to see if his mother was in the bedroom.

　　"Madam is in the living room." Uncle Wang had just finished speaking when Xu Jiashen happened to pass by the living room.

　　"Jia Shen is back." Mrs. Xu stood up and greeted him.

　　Xu Jiashen was suspiciously about to ask what happened at home that urged him to come back, when he saw the young woman sitting next to his mother with a shy look on her face.

　　Xu Jiashen understood it all at once.

　　"mom."

　　He rubbed his temples: "I've been really busy lately and have no time to do anything else. Can you please stop calling and scaring me? I thought something happened to you."

　　The plan he had in hand was intercepted by someone, the agreed contract could not be signed, and there was a guy named Xiao who was trying to make things difficult for him. In short, there were a lot of bad things.

　　"Can't I see you? You haven't been home for so many days. I don't even care about me as your mother anymore." Mrs. Xu said angrily.

　　"That's not what I meant..." Xu Jiashen was about to retort when Mrs. Xu came over and took his hand, regardless of whether he was reluctant or not.
