After the betrothal gift negotiation collapsed, I turned around and married a wealthy man.

Shen Boyan himself didn't even remember what was placed on the coffee table.

Although Sheng Yao looked very disgusted, she still tried to overcome herself and threw everything on the coffee table that she didn't need into the trash can one by one.

After throwing away the trash, she folded all the clothes on the sofa.

The eldest lady has always been waited on by others. How has she ever done such a job?

But even though her hands were very unfamiliar, she still folded each piece of clothing carefully.

Shen Boyan was so serious that he stood there looking at her for several minutes, but she didn't respond.

After Sheng Yao folded two or three pieces of clothes, she learned by herself without a teacher. She seemed to have found a technique and became more and more proficient. If you listen carefully, you can hear her humming a tune on the tip of her nose, looking very happy.

Shen Boyan looked at her quietly.

Shen Boyan never understood why Sheng Yao liked him.

Maybe, she didn't even like him.

After all, her character is there, and her emotions are as blank as a blank sheet of paper.

She may not know what it means to like someone or fall in love with someone.

She only knows that she must get what she wants, no matter whether this thing or this person is suitable for her.

Sheng Yao didn't have that concept, but Shen Boyan did.

He knows very well how painful it is to like someone you shouldn't like.

So he didn't want to give Sheng Yao any hope and stopped all her thoughts before she let herself sink deeper and deeper.

He knew that this might be unfair to Sheng Yao, but he had to do it.

She has a simple mind, and you don't even need to try hard to guess what she is thinking.

After Sheng Yao cleared the sofa, she stood in the living room, hands on her hips, looking at the fruits of her labor with satisfaction.

Uh……

After working for more than ten minutes, except for throwing away some garbage and stacking some messy things together, nothing seems to have changed from before.

But despite this, Sheng Yao still gave herself a silent thumbs up in her heart.

After all, not everyone can make her take the initiative to do these things.

Sheng Yao remembered that the honey water was almost dry, so she thought it was time to bring it to Shen Boyan.

When she turned around, she caught a glimpse of Shen Boyan, who had been standing there for who knows how long, and was instantly startled.

"You...why didn't you sleep?"

Shen Boyan pressed his eyebrows and said, "Can't sleep."

Sheng Yao thought of the noise she had just made and felt a little embarrassed, "Did I wake you up..."

She said awkwardly, "Well, I just want to help you clean up, you..."

"You don't have to do this." Shen Boyan said lightly.

Sheng Yao stood there blankly, "What do you mean..."

Shen Boyan has always been used to being alone. He knows that Sheng Yao means well, but her behavior will only make him feel uncomfortable.

Shen Boyan's lips moved slightly, and just when he was about to speak, Sheng Yao curled his lips and asked him a little aggrievedly, "Are you tired of me?"

Shen Boyan paused for a moment. He just didn't want Sheng Yao to do these meaningless things, but he estimated that when he said these words, she would definitely start a fuss on the spot.

Shen Boyan pursed his lips and said helplessly, "I didn't mean that."

Sheng Yao, who was shrouded in dark clouds a second ago, suddenly recovered from the rain and regained her smile.

"As long as you don't drive me away!"

She ran to the kitchen and brought out the honey water.

"Drink this, you will feel better."

All Sheng Yao could think about was that honey water could relieve hangover, so she quickly asked Shen Boyan to drink it. But she didn't control the time just now. When Shen Boyan took the water glass, it was already cold.

But Sheng Yao obviously didn't realize this problem.

He sighed inwardly.

Let it cool down.

Shen Boyan thought that after he drank the honey water, Sheng Yao felt relieved and would go back.

So he told Sheng Yao, "Contact your family and they will take you back."

Sheng Yao said immediately, "You just said you wouldn't drive me away!"

Shen Boyan's words were stuck in his throat, and he was filled with helplessness.

He really didn't know how to communicate with this young lady.

"If you don't go back, why don't you live with me?"

When Sheng Yao was thinking, Shen Boyan said ruthlessly, "Don't think about it. There is no place for you to live here. Even if there is, I won't let you live."

Sheng Yao originally felt that it was really inappropriate for her to live here. Even if she liked Shen Boyan very much, the two had not yet confirmed their relationship. They were alone in the same room. Even if Shen Boyan thought it didn't matter, she was still embarrassed.

But what Shen Boyan said next made her immediately unhappy.

"What do you mean? Even if I live here, I will be the one who suffers the most. Why are you driving me away? You dislike me so much!"

Shen Boyan was really speechless at the eldest lady's understanding.

When normal people face such a thing, they first consider their own personal safety.

She didn't think about it, she took it all to mean that Shen Boyan disliked him and wanted to drive her away.

Shen Boyan lost his patience and simply said, "Since you know, then go back quickly. I want to go to bed."

Sheng Yao's eyes were red with grievance. She choked and said, "You are such a cruel man. I take good care of you and worry about you, but you want to drive me away. Wow, oh, oh, you are so heartless!"

"I'm not……"

"You are! You just rely on me to like you and keep ruining my love for you. You are a bastard, a heartless bastard!"

Shen Boyan's head hurt so much that it almost exploded.

But seeing Sheng Yao shed tears, he couldn't bear it.

Although she is already in her twenties, she is like a child in relationships.

Since she is a child, it is useless for you to communicate with her using an adult's way of thinking.

Shen Boyan was soft-hearted, but he knew that she wouldn't listen to anything he said to Sheng Yao at this moment.

Shen Boyan was silent for a while, then suddenly grabbed Sheng Yao's wrist and pressed her down on the sofa.

Sheng Yao's crying stopped suddenly, with tears still hanging on her eyelashes. Looking at Shen Boyan's face so close, her bright and clear eyes were full of fear.

"You...what are you doing?"

Shen Boyan lowered his voice, "Don't you want to stay? In that case, let's do something adults should do."

He said and deliberately moved closer.

Get a little closer and the two of them are almost kissing.

Sheng Yao's cheeks turned red visibly. She closed her eyes subconsciously and shouted, "No, no! You can't do this!"

"Why not? If you don't go back, don't you want to do this?"

Although Shen Boyan was pressing Sheng Yao, his hands were on the edge of the sofa and he was kneeling on the sofa with one leg. Looking from the side, there was actually a big gap between the two of them.

But it's different from Sheng Yao's perspective.

This posture...

What a shame! (End of chapter)
