Old Master Sheng smiled at once. “I’ll bring you there next time. I can go to the one in Yan City, and I should be able to go to the one in the capital too. They’ll let you in on my account.”
“Mm.” Old Master Kang didn’t say anything else. “In-law, when are you meeting with that hacker named Lemon? Where?”
Old Master Sheng smiled happily.
‘See, you’re getting anxious, aren’t you?’
Actually, he could understand. It was not easy to get in touch with people just because you wanted to.
“We can go there after dinner. I’ll take you there. Just watch and don’t say anything. Don’t scare the person away,” Old Master Sheng said sternly with a cold face.
Sheng Yang lowered her head and continued eating. She wasn’t interested in this topic.
Her grandmother and grandfather’s food was much better than the food served in the Sheng family’s mansion.
Just then, Old Master Sheng’s phone rang. He smiled. “They must be looking for me. Maybe they want to meet up earlier.”
He looked down and his face turned pale.
Following that, he raised his head and looked dazedly at the pairs of eyes staring at him. Naturally, Sheng Yang was not included. She was still eating leisurely.
“What’s wrong?” Old Madam Sheng noticed that something was wrong with his face. “Did they change the time?”
Old Madam Sheng glared at her. ‘If you don’t say anything, no one will think you’re mute!’
Old Madam Sheng ate absent-mindedly. He didn’t eat much throughout the meal. When they were about to leave, he stopped them. “Wait.”
“What’s wrong?” Everyone looked at him in confusion.
Old Madam Sheng hesitated for a long time before saying, “He’s changed the date.”
“I see.”
“Since he’s S’ underling, it’s normal for him to be busy.”
Everyone believed him. Only Sheng Yang looked at Grandpa Sheng with an unprecedentedly pleasant smile. Old Master Sheng suddenly felt a little anxious and annoyed. What was she smiling about?
She didn’t believe him?
Her eyes were so clear as if she knew everything. It was as if nothing could escape her eyes.
Old Master Sheng couldn’t stand the torture anymore. In addition to his guilty conscience, he took the lead and got into the car with the old madam. They left as soon as possible.
However, Old Madam Sheng didn’t understand. She looked at him blankly. “What are you doing? Didn’t they just change the date? It’s not like someone stood you up!”
“…” His wife was so smart. She knew just what to say in a situation. Why was his wife so stupid?!
Sheng Yang left a little later. She wasn’t heading to the same place as Old Master Sheng and Old Madam Sheng. Kang Lixing was worried about her, so he naturally had to send his niece off personally. At the same time, he wanted to improve the relationship between him and his niece.
The car was already halfway to their destination, but it was still not much different from their ride over. He was driving while she had her earphones in.
At this moment, a call suddenly came. Kang Lixing was driving and didn’t think much about it. He naturally pressed the speaker button.
“Hello, Brother…” When he heard this voice, Kang Lixing almost lost his grip on the steering wheel. He wanted to press the end call button, but it was too late. “You asked me what Yangyang likes. She’s very easygoing, you don’t have to be so careful and nervous. My daughter is cold on the outside but warm on the inside.”
It was dead silent in the car.
Sheng Yang was still looking out of the window, her gaze clear and cold.. Kang Lixing didn’t know if she had heard it, but he couldn’t be perfunctory with his sister, so he hung up after a few words.
