Chapter 2619 A single spark ignites a prairie fire (17)

Xie Mu went to knock on Shen Liao's door in the middle of the night.

Shen Liao had already fallen asleep when she heard a knock on the door. It took a while before she got up and opened the door.

The lights in the corridor were not turned on, and Xie Mu's entire body was immersed in darkness. Shen Liao stepped back slightly and asked, "Is something wrong?"

Xie Mu: "Do you really think you can leave the Xie family just like this?"

Shen Liao: "..."

Shen Liao pretended to close the door, "I'm going to bed."

Xie Mu held the door open with his hand: "You'd better tell them about this yourself, if you don't want to."

Shen Liao raised his head and met Xie Mu's eyes with the faint light, "Xie Mu, this is my business."

Xie Mu snorted coldly: "Why do you just slap your butt and leave after so many years of eating and drinking at my house for free?"

Shen Liao: "I remember all the money I have spent, and I will return it to my aunt."

Xie Mu grabbed Shen Liao's collar and said, "Don't even think about leaving Xie's house like this!"

If Shen Liao leaves, who will he vent his anger on in the future?

And why should he join a family like Chu's family?

He wanted to soar into the sky, but he would never allow it.

"Mu Mu, it's so late, what are you talking to Liao Liao?" Aunt Shen walked over with her pajamas folded in her hands, her eyes full of suspicion.

Xie Mu's face changed in seconds, and the two brothers seemed to put their hands on Shen Liao's shoulders, "Let's talk to Shen Liao for a few words."

Aunt Shen frowned and looked at them a few times, "What do you say at night? Is there anything you can't talk about during the day?"

Xie Mu was obviously a little afraid of Aunt Shen and Aunt Shen's nagging, so he immediately said: "Okay, okay, let's talk tomorrow. I'll go back to sleep first."

After saying that, Xie Mu immediately let go of Shen Liao and went back to his room.

"Liao Liao, go to bed early." Aunt Shen warned.

"Okay, good night, aunt."

Shen Liao closed the door and lay back on the bed.

After flipping back and forth twice without falling asleep, Shen Liao sat up and took his phone from the bedside table.

While he was sleeping, Chuzheng didn't reply to his messages.

When I turned on my phone, there was an unread message.

[Chu Zheng: Don't worry about them, just deal with them casually. ]

Sent time was an hour ago.

Shen Liao felt a little psychologically affected by the words "just deal with it casually".

As for today's battle, can you handle it casually?

Shen Liao clicked on the keyboard to type.

[Shen Liao: My uncle and aunt said they would get us engaged...]

Shen Liao felt something was wrong and immediately withdrew.

Before he could think of what to say, the name at the top suddenly jumped to the words 'typing'.

Shen Liao's heartbeat started to beat wildly.

Isn't she asleep yet?

Did she see what he just posted?

What would she say...

The next second, the screen swooshed and a message popped up.

[Chu Zheng: I know about the engagement, I have no objection. 】

Shen Liao fell on the quilt and buried his head in the pillow.

Sure enough she saw it.

Even though the incident itself had happened, he agreed.

But he always felt that it was a bit strange for him to ask her like that.

After two minutes, Shen Liao raised his head and exhaled.

[Shen Liao: Is it too fast? 】

[Chu Zheng: You don’t want to? 】

Shen Liao barely thought about it. He had already typed out the word 'no' and was thinking about sending it.

[Shen Liao: No. 】

[Shen Liao: It’s just...it just feels like it’s too fast. 】

[Chu Zheng: Then aren’t you just unwilling? 】

[Shen Liao:...]

[Shen Liao: I think it’s fast, and I don’t want to are two different things. 】

Shen Liao tried to explain clearly to Chu Zheng.

However, Chuzheng was convinced of this and refused to let go.

In the end, Shen Liao was unable to type and chose to compromise.

[Shen Liao: Just pretend that I never said that. 】

[Chu Zheng: Yeah. 】

Chuzheng was waiting for his words.

Anyway, the deal is done, and it is absolutely impossible for Shen Liao to regret it!

[Chu Zheng: Why aren’t you sleeping yet? 】

[Shen Liao: I have slept for a while and woke up. ] Shen Liao reported very obediently.

[Chu Zheng: Are you sleepy now? 】

[Shen Liao: Not very sleepy. 】

[Chu Zheng: Is it convenient to make a video? 】

[Shen Liao:...]

Shen Liao sat up and tidied the messy bed before accepting the video invitation from Chu Zheng.

Shen Liao only turned on the bedside lamp, and the light just enveloped him.

The housecoat he was wearing was a little wrinkled, and the collar wasn't too wide open, so only a little of his collarbone could be seen.

Chuzheng sat on the sofa, leaning on the back of the sofa, looking at the camera calmly.

Shen Liao is not used to looking directly at others, so when looking at the screen, the focus is always blurry.

"Are you still at Xie's house?"

"Um."

"After you get engaged, you can live with me."

Shen Liao: "..."

Shen Liao's expression was a bit complicated.

Every step is too big...

Chuzheng continued casually: "Don't worry, the housekeeper will prepare a new room for you."

Shen Liao groaned and said nothing.

Chuzheng didn't continue and changed the subject: "Did Xie Mu give you any trouble today?"

After thinking about it, Shen Liao probably didn't think so, so he shook his head.

Shen Liao didn't want to mention Xie Mu, so she took the initiative to ask her: "Why aren't you sleeping yet?" Didn't her mother say that she was not in good health before?

Chuzheng: "Something happened. It's too late to deal with it."

Shen Liao: "Oh..."

Shen Liao wanted to ask something, but thought about it and shouldn't ask in such detail.

Chuzheng and Shen Liao were chatting all the time. During this period, the housekeeper came and knocked on the door, reminding Chuzheng to go to bed quickly.

Chuzheng turned off the lights and fooled the housekeeper.

"Go to sleep." Shen Liao was afraid that staying up late would be bad for Chu Zheng's health.

"you are tired?"

"No, I'm afraid of you..."

"It's okay, I took a nap in the afternoon. The housekeeper just made a fuss."

Chu Zheng turned off the light, and it was very dark over there. Shen Liao couldn't see much.

He felt the camera moving and a slight sound.

"Auntie said you are not in good health and you need to take good care of yourself." Shen Liao said softly.

"I'm fine."

The phone was fixed in one place, facing the closet.

The curtains were not closed, so the moonlight falling in became a natural light source.

Shen Liao saw Chu Zheng open the wardrobe, take out the clothes, and then take off the clothes directly.

"What are you doing..." Shen Liao's voice was a little panicked.

"Change your clothes." Chuzheng said calmly, "You don't want to change your clothes when you sleep?"

Shen Liao: "..."

Who would change clothes in front of others!

Shen Liao didn't dare to look at it and kept her phone closed - although she couldn't see anything clearly.

After all, the moonlight was too weak, and at most I could only see an outline clearly.

Shen Liao made sure Chu Zheng had changed her clothes before picking up her phone.

"I'll pick you up tomorrow." Chuzheng leaned against the bedside, "Send me your address."

"pick me up?"

"My mother didn't tell you?"

Shen Liao remembered that when her first mother left for the last time, she said she was going to eat...

"said."

"You don't want to go?"

Shen Liao really didn't want to go, he didn't know how to get along.

But it was impossible not to go. As an elder, he had invited her, so it would be rude of him not to go.

"No. I'm just a little nervous."

"Why are you nervous? Am I not here?"

"...Hmm." Perhaps it was Chu Zheng's words 'she is here' that gave Shen Liao a lot of concentration.
