Shancai Rebirth: My Choice

Shan Lai was stunned. It seemed that Ximen and Xiaoyou had been married for a long time. Although she and Lei had obtained a marriage certificate, there was still no plan for the wedding. What a headache!

"Hanazawa Rui! Don't change the subject." Shan Lai glared at him. He was clearly trying to change the subject. He was just talking about his audacity, so how did he bring up Ximen and Xiaoyou now?

“I didn’t.” He seemed to hang his head, not daring to look at Shanlai, with an expression of being aggrieved and unwilling.

Shan Lai sighed. It seemed that he couldn't explain it clearly to him. It would be more practical to think about how the two of them should proceed so as not to arouse their mother's suspicion.

Shan Lai pushed Lei aside and walked down from the cabinet. She tiptoed and grabbed his collar and said viciously: "Get down first. It will be bad if someone sees you later."

Lei laughed, with ill intentions, "What do you mean by bad influence? What are you talking about? It's as if we are having an affair."

As soon as the word "affair" came out, Shan Lai's face turned redder with anger. What was going on? He was the one who started to act like a scoundrel first, how did it turn into an affair?

"Get out of here right now. I need to change my clothes." Shan Lai said as he pushed Lei out and closed the door neatly.

The person who was pushed out stood pitifully at the door and touched his nose helplessly. Thinking of his mother still cooking with Aunt Dong in the kitchen, he put one hand in his pocket and walked downstairs slowly.

After Shanlai changed her clothes, she looked at herself in front of the mirror for a while. Only when she felt that she was dressed appropriately did she open the door and go downstairs.

As soon as she got downstairs, she heard laughter coming from the kitchen. She was a little confused. What were Aunt Cheng and her mother talking about? They were laughing so happily.

When she arrived at the kitchen door, she saw a girl wearing an apron standing beside Aunt Cheng and helping her pick vegetables. She was stunned. What was she doing? ? ?

She doesn't understand.

"Shanlai, please go sit outside for a while. We'll be having dinner soon." Chengnan smiled gently and looked at his daughter-in-law at the kitchen door.

Dong Shen just happened to look up and saw his daughter standing at the door. He sighed and then slowly walked to her. "Go out and sit down. Your aunt Cheng insisted on cooking for you herself. We are enough in the kitchen."

Cheng Nanyi also came over and said the same thing to Shan Lai, "Yeah, honey, go out and sit down. Dinner will be served soon."

Unable to resist the persuasion of the two women, Shanlai was tricked out of the kitchen. She suddenly thought of something and turned to look at Lei, "Then what is he doing here?" She blinked innocently.

"Oh, you mean." Chengnan smiled mysteriously, "Of course, let him learn to cook. What if the food is not delicious and you vomit?" She blinked and signaled Shanlai to go out quickly.

Lei pulled the vegetable leaves helplessly. It seemed that his mother enjoyed making trouble for him in front of Shanlai and Aunt Dong. Fortunately, she didn't make too harsh a criticism, and it was within his acceptable range.

Shanlai was pushed out like this, and she was helpless.

After waiting for a long time for them to finish cooking, when everyone sat together at the table, three pairs of eyes were staring at her intently, which gave her a headache. Soon the bowl was piled with food like a mountain, and she could only lower her head to eat.

She almost died of fullness after the meal.

When Chengnan was leaving, he held her hand reluctantly and said that he would cook delicious food for her next time she came home. His deep eyes were fixed on Shanlai. Shanlai forced herself to meet his eyes. He didn't speak during dinner tonight. It shouldn't be said that he didn't speak, but that Aunt Cheng didn't give him a chance to speak.

After seeing off Aunt Cheng and her son, Shanlai turned around and sent an emoticon to Lei. He must have been driving, so he didn't reply.

With a sigh, Shanlai patted his little face and went upstairs to put on a facial mask.

Hanazawa family.

As soon as Lei got home and turned on his phone, a chat box with Shanlai popped up. Looking at the expression on her face, she must be afraid that he was angry tonight. Her mother was always talking to Xiaomao about this and that, and he didn't dare to interrupt, otherwise he would be scolded when he got home.

After returning from Shanlai's house, Chengnan was in a very good mood and even hummed a little tune. After walking for a while, he realized that his son was far behind him. He walked up to him, tiptoed and patted his shoulder, "Young man, you have to pay attention when you walk, don't let anything trip you up."

"Are you happy today?" Chengnan raised his eyebrows.

He was stunned. How should he answer his mother's question?

"You are actually happy, aren't you? My daughter-in-law is embarrassed to say it, but I can see it." Chengnan looked at her with a look of "You are my son and I understand you best", and smiled maliciously, "That was at Shanlai's house. You were really brave. Fortunately, her father was not at home today, otherwise you might have been kicked out."

kind:???

He was helpless, so what on earth did his mother want to express? "Mom, so what? What's wrong?"

Cheng Nan sneered, "The little girl's lip corner is broken. Next time you do something like this, you'd better restrain yourself and don't let anyone catch you." He crossed his arms and looked at his good son.

So that's how it is. Lei raised his eyebrows and looked at his mother who was shorter than him. She was very observant.

"Okay, I'm in a good mood today, so I won't scold you. You can do whatever you want." After saying that, Cheng Nanyi went upstairs humming a little tune.

Deng Hezhi had a car accident today. All the prominent heads of wealthy and aristocratic families went to his house to pay their respects, and Hua Zeheng was no exception. The mother and son did not go today because Hua Zeheng said that there was no need to go at all. As for Deng Hezhi's "accident", anyone with a brain could figure out the cause and effect of this matter.

We are all smart people, and we all know it tacitly. Just going through the motions is the most we can do.

Deng Hezhi was very active during the year when Shanlai was in a coma, so it is not surprising that he ended up like this.

Cheng Nanyi shrugged helplessly. She had no connection with Deng Heyao's family, so it didn't matter if she didn't go.

Lei sat in the lobby for a while, replied to her message, and then slowly went upstairs.

……

The next two days were spent on Deng Hezhi's funeral. When Shan Lai followed Dong Shen to Deng Hezhi's home, his son and daughter were already crying together.

Shan Lai just looked at them. At this moment, it seemed inappropriate for her to say anything, so she just followed her mother obediently to the portrait and bowed.

She originally wanted to do the Namaste salute, but was stopped by Deng Heyin who was standing beside her, "You are the heir of the Deng He family. How can an heir kneel before the third wife?"

Deng Heyin's simple words caused an uproar.

What? Is Deng Heyin too lazy to even pretend?
