Chapter 333 - 333: Shen Xiu
Knock, knock, knock—a knock on the door interrupted his thoughts. Could it be her? Shen Xiu felt a surge of joy and perked up slightly as he called out, “Come in!”
A woman walked in, but it wasn’t Shen Lan; it was Xia Na.
“Why are you here?” Shen Xiu asked impatiently.
“I brought you some food since you’ve been so busy with work. It’s good to nourish your body,” Xia Na replied coquettishly. She was dressed in a one-shoulder dress that accentuated her alluring curves.
“Put them down and leave,” Shen Xiu snapped.
“But I…” Xia Na began.
“Uncle, are you busy?” Before Xia Na could finish her sentence, Shen Lan pushed the door open and entered.
Xia Na was furious. She put her arm around Shen Xiu’s shoulder and leaned into him.
“Your uncle is busy now. Why don’t you wait a bit?” Xia Na said provocatively. Shen Lan looked at the scene in front of her and suddenly panicked. She closed the door and hurriedly left.
Shen Xiu pushed Xia Na away in disgust and ran out of the office without looking back. He chased after Shen Lan. Xia Na was so angry that she clenched her teeth.
Why? In her eyes, Shen Lan was just a young, inexperienced girl. How did she get Shen Xiu so infatuated with her?
Shen Xiu finally caught up with Shen Lan when she was already in her car. She had started moving.
He quickly got into his car and chased after her.
Finally, on a quiet road, Shen Lan stopped her car.
There were faint traces of tears at the corners of her eyes.
She was just as confused as anyone. He was her uncle. Even though they weren’t related by blood, it wasn’t her place to be concerned about whether he had a girlfriend or not.
But for some reason, she felt uneasy whenever she saw him interact with other women.
Shen Xiu parked behind her.
He walked up to Shen Lan’s car window and wanted to say something, but the words got stuck in his throat.
His actions earlier had already exposed his thoughts, hadn’t they?
He liked her. Even the thought surprised himself.
Just a few years ago, Shen Lan was still a little girl in his eyes, but suddenly…
He couldn’t bear to see her sad.
The car window slowly rolled down, and Shen Lan’s beautiful face came into view.
Her appearance wasn’t dazzling, but her delicate features were harmonious, and her slightly drooped eyes gave her an innocent charm that brought out protective urges in others.
Shen Xiu looked at the traces of tears at the corners of Shen Lan’s eyes and felt a pang of sadness.
Shen Lan forced a smile, “Uncle, if you have something to do, go ahead. It’s okay.”
Shen Xiu’s intense gaze fell on Shen Lan, making her feel a bit overwhelmed.
She had already sensed that Shen Xiu was looking at her differently.
Was in possibly interested in her, too?
This thought made Shen Lan’s ears turn slightly red.
When he saw Shen Lan blush, Shen Xiu couldn’t hold back anymore.
At that moment, he was certain that Shen Lan had feelings for him.
He opened the car door and looked at Shen Lan’s surprised expression. Without hesitation, he picked her up around her waist and placed her in the back seat of his car.
Shen Lan blushed even more. She had imagined such a scenario before, but she hadn’t expected it to happen so quickly.
Shen Xiu then got into the car and closed the door.
The two of them looked at each other in silence, and an ambiguous atmosphere filled the air.
While he looked at the petite girl in front of him, Shen Xiu felt an overwhelming desire to embrace her, but he didn’t want to scare her by being too impulsive. Instead, he gently brushed the strands of hair by Shen Lan’s ear with his slender hand.
“Don’t misunderstand, Xia Na is just imagining things. I have nothing to do with her,” Shen Xiu explained.
“Of course, your girlfriend has nothing to do with me,” Shen Lan pretended to be magnanimous, but inside, she was fuming.
Shen Xiu observed the angry little woman in front of him. He couldn’t help but feel a sense of fondness for her..
