Chapter 18

“When did you two get together?”

“Any intimate moments?”

“Are you satisfied with this brat’s stamina?”

…

The old lady was excitedly chattering away, and Luo Wan couldn’t get a word in edgewise.

Fortunately, Mr. Sheng, who had rested well beside her, reminded her.

“Wife, take it easy. Don’t scare my granddaughter-in-law.”

Only then did the old lady reluctantly close her mouth, but she still stared at Luo Wan, her eyes almost sparkling.

For one whole afternoon, the two elderly people, one wanted to chat with Luo Wan, and the other wanted to practice boxing, leaving Luo Wan with no spare time.

Seeing Luo Wan made them happier than seeing their own grandson.

In the evening, when Sheng Qing came home from work and saw this harmonious scene, he raised an eyebrow discreetly.

“When did you two arrive?”

Upon seeing her grandson, the old lady immediately put on a serious face. She pretended to be angry, “You brat, you have a wife now and you didn’t even tell us.”

As she spoke, she was about to go and pull her grandson’s ears.

Sheng Qing frowned, feeling helpless against his own grandmother.

This old lady came from a prestigious family since childhood. After marrying his grandfather, she had become accustomed to her ways.

He’s spoiled by his grandfather, so even though he’s getting older, he still thinks and acts like a child.

Seeing the old lady’s hand reaching out, Sheng Qing quickly pulled the dazed Luo Wan over and hugged her.

The old lady still wanted to leave a good impression on her daughter-in-law, so she reluctantly withdrew her hand.

“I’ll let you off this time.”

Sheng Qing left an impression on Luo Wan that apart from in bed, he was always cold and didn’t smile much. Combined with his identity as the CEO of the Sheng Corporation, no one dared to be presumptuous in front of him. He never expected her to interact with her family in such a lively manner.

As if she had discovered a secret, Luo Wan pursed her lips, holding back her laughter.

This mischievous look was extremely adorable in someone’s eyes, and he couldn’t help but pinch her smooth cheek. Indulgently, he said, “No laughing behind Grandma’s back.”

“Grandma is here; it’s not appropriate to laugh too much.”

Sheng Qing chuckled, leaning down to whisper softly in Luo Wan’s ear, “I’ll deal with you later.”

Luo Wan nestled in the man’s broad embrace, the tip of her nose filled with the woody scent from his body.

Sheng Qing’s shoulders were broad, his muscles perfectly defined, the epitome of a male model’s physique. At this moment, clad in a restrained suit, he was murmuring ambiguous words in her ear.

The places brushed by the man’s faint breath gradually turned pink.

The two people on the side couldn’t help but exchange knowing smiles, silently acknowledging the intimate bond between the couple.

The old lady, sensing the situation, tactfully changed the subject.

Dinnertime.

The old lady looked at Luo Wan’s empty ring finger and teasingly asked her grandson, “Is our Sheng family going bankrupt?”

?

Where did that come from?

Everyone at the table wore puzzled expressions.

The old lady lifted Luo Wan’s right hand, admiring its fair and smooth complexion, slender fingers.

But it was empty.

Luo Wan realized and withdrew her hand, feeling embarrassed as she lowered her head.

“Grandma, it’s not necessary.”

After all, they were only temporary husband and wife. They might part ways at any time, so it wasn’t right to let others spend on them.

With this thought, she heard the deep, magnetic voice of the man beside her saying, “I understand.”

Looks like he’s not totally clueless.

The old lady was very pleased.

After dinner, the two old folks returned to their old mansion.

Luo Wan went back to her room, while Sheng Qing went to the study.

Luo Wan noticed that he seemed busy every day, going to the company early in the morning and working in the study until late at night when he returned.

Many people would envy his social status, but only those close to him knew the effort and self-discipline required to maintain it.
