The daughter of a general is so cool in the novel about a wealthy family

The lively atmosphere had cooled down, and most people returned to their seats. The band took the stage again, and the music became more relaxed.

The lights in the no-man's land also turned into night, and under the soft combination of blue and purple lights, the performance was probably about to end.

Shi Xiao asked Li Ci: "You probably didn't expect Yuan Shu to appear here at this time? Do you think this is a coincidence or a deliberate arrangement?"

Li Ci frowned, seemingly not understanding the question, "It's hard to say. I just found out that the boss behind No Man's Land is Tan Jing, but the Tan family has always been neutral. I can't figure out why he would use a glass of wine to frame you. I also don't know what role Mrs. Shi played in this matter."

Shi Xiao had been in Africa for two months, and he had completely forgotten about the Tan family, which was a fence-sitter. He only focused on the Jiang family and the Xu family. What a miscalculation.

"What has the Tan family done recently?" Shi Xiao asked.

"During the ancestral house banquet, Tan Jing once invited Mrs. Shi to invest in a project with the Shi family's money, but was rejected. They are launching this project recently. Mrs. Shi...I'm afraid she is different from the one you knew before. I have to say, you married a good woman."

"Really?" Shi Xiao narrowed his eyes and looked at Yuan Shu steadily. She was indeed different. Her temperament became restrained and dignified, but in fact, she gave people a very familiar feeling.

"Do you think there are two people in this world who look exactly the same but have completely different personalities?" Shi Xiao asked Li Ci.

Li Ci didn't understand what Shi Xiao meant.

Shi Xiao had already stood up, ready to leave with Yuan Shu and others.

In the VIP box on the second floor of the no-man's land, Jiang Heng sat on a soft leather chair, next to him was a bartender with dreadlocks, and on the other side was Tan Jing.

The bartender was dissatisfied and said, "Sky City is famous for its intoxicating drink! The red cherries need to be soaked in the strongest liquor for two weeks to have an effect. This is the essence of Sky City. Why do you want me to mix a soulless Sky City? This is totally not up to my standards!"

Tan Jing didn't understand either. "Why do the Jiang family seem to treat Yuan Shu differently? What is Yuan Shu's background that makes you protect her so much?"

Jiang Heng placed his arms on the leather seat, lay down comfortably, then closed his eyes and enjoyed the lights and music.

"To be honest, I don't know either. It was all arranged by my cousin. My cousin said Yuan Shu couldn't move, so of course I had to obey."

Tan Jing was even more confused as to who this mysterious Jiang Chen was. He had always been talked about but had never shown up. He was so accurate in his calculations yet so low-key.

"Then why did Master Jiang ask us to interfere with Yuan Shu and Shi Xiao's marriage three months ago and help her marry into the Shi family? Now he doesn't allow us to touch her. Isn't this contradictory?"

Jiang Heng opened his eyes and slowly sat up. This was also what puzzled him. Ever since Shi Xiao went to Africa, this cousin seemed to have become a different person. His methods became even more ruthless and incomprehensible. Even Jiang Heng was a little afraid of him.

Jiang Heng was a little impatient. "Don't ask too many questions. Just do your own thing. The first thing Shi Xiao did when he came back was to rush here. He must have some suspicions about what happened three months ago. Tan Jing, you have to be careful. He wants to attack the Tan family."

Tan Jing said disdainfully: "The Tan family never favors any party on the surface. If he openly attacks us, won't other families be disappointed in him?"

Jiang Heng looked dangerously at the booth where several people were sitting, "I hope he has other things to do right now and is not in the mood to care about what's going on here."

Zhang Zhang was sent home by the driver, while Shi Xiao took Yuan Shu and Shi Lu back to the ancestral home.

Shi Lu sat in the front row, Yuan Shu and Shi Xiao sat in the back row. The three of them were thinking about different things and didn't speak all the way.

Shi Lu was worried that Shi Xiao would find out that he brought Yuan Shu into the entertainment industry, and that Shi Xiao would come to settle the score with him when the new drama started filming. Along the way, he was thinking of finding excuses to deal with it, and at the same time he was also worried that his sister-in-law would not be able to film.

Yuan Shu’s thoughts were much simpler. She was not worried about facing Shi Xiao after returning.

Because she knew very well that Shi Xiao hated the original owner to the core. Two days after the marriage, the male protagonist was too lazy to pay attention to her and left her in the villa, so Chu Mei would come to make trouble every now and then.

He hasn't been back for two months and he definitely isn't in the mood to pay attention to her. This way, Yuan Shu will feel more at ease than before he came back. She won't even have to worry about the affairs of the Shi family company. Isn't that great?

But she didn't know why her memory was so confused. Everything from their one-night stand in the hotel to their marriage became blurry.

However, Yuan Shu had a vague guess that the two did not have sex that night, but when they woke up the next morning, their clothes were disheveled, which led to the misunderstanding.

After Shi Lu got off the car, he quickly said, "Brother, it's great that you're back. We really missed you. It's getting late. I'm going to sleep first. Good night, brother and sister-in-law."

Before Yuan Shu could react, Shi Lu had already returned to the room and slammed the door.

Did this guy just borrow the voice of artificial intelligence?

How did he come up with such an emotionless string of words?

Yuan Shu was thinking when Wu Yan had already walked to the door and was waiting for her. When she saw Shi Xiao, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, but her years of experience as a servant made her calm down immediately.

Wu Yan knew Shi Xiao's habits. Even after getting married, Shi Xiao always slept alone in his room. So after Yuan Shu moved in, she specially prepared a room for her. Shi Xiao's room has always been empty.

Wu Yan asked respectfully, "Master, Madam, do you need me to prepare hot water for a bath?"

Shi Xiao didn't say anything, but just looked at Yuan Shu, who looked tired, with interest.

Yuan Shu was so tired after playing all night that she urgently needed to take a hot bath and have a good rest.

She took off her black leather shoes, rubbed her neck, and answered Wu Yan as if the person next to her didn't exist, "Please put a basin of hot water in my room and prepare a cup of honey water."

As Yuan Shu spoke, he put on his slippers and walked upstairs, as if he had completely forgotten that Shi Xiao was standing next to him.

Wu Yan didn't know how to react. She looked at Yuan Shu and then at Shi Xiao.

Shi Xiao smiled, held Yuan Shu's hand, and said to Wu Yan, "Two cups."

Wu Yan went to the kitchen and started busying herself.

Yuan Shu was completely relaxed at this time. When she was pulled suddenly by someone, she took a step back and bumped into Shi Xiao's arm.

Shi Xiao hugged Yuan Shu from behind.

Yuan Shu was not used to such intimate actions. He frowned and used his elbow to push Shi Xiao's hand away.

Yuan Shu was very tired now and was in no mood to pay attention to him. He asked coldly, "What do you want to do?"

Shi Xiao looked calm, ignoring Yuan Shu's reaction, and walked towards the room first, "Of course, go back to sleep, aren't you tired?"

Yuan Shu felt that there was something wrong with his expression, but there was nothing wrong with his words. However, Yuan Shu quickly realized that when he said he wanted to go to bed, he actually just wanted to go to her room!

Before he could open the car door, Yuan Shu hurried forward to stop him, "Where are you going?"

"Is there any problem going back to the room?" Shi Xiao said calmly.

But Yuan Shu could see the provocation in Shi Xiao's eyes and knew that Shi Xiao was definitely testing her. Her reaction in the no-man's land had already made him suspicious.

Everything has its own laws, which humans cannot know or understand, but cannot change.

If Shi Xiao asked Yuan Shu who she was, she couldn't just say that she was from another dynasty outside this world, right?

Well, Shi Xiao probably had no other choice but to treat her as a mental patient and send her to a mental hospital.

Yuan Shu calmed down and said, "We have always slept in separate rooms."

Shi Xiao said coldly: "Then from today on, we will sleep together."

Yuan Shu said: "I'm not used to sleeping with others."

Shi Xiao said: "Then let's get used to it starting today."

Yuan Shu was speechless.

While Shi Xiao was speaking, he had already walked around Yuan Shu, opened the door and entered the room.
