Chapter 229: Chapter 229

Sheng Jianan’s gloomy expression had persisted since last night, but seeing Tang Yanqi’s flushed face, his mood suddenly improved, and a slight smile appeared on his lips.

Just as he was about to step forward, someone knocked on the door again: "Young Master, Young Madam, breakfast is ready. Mr. Sheng is asking if you want to go down for breakfast?"

Young Master Sheng’s slightly improved mood instantly plummeted again.

Seriously, what’s the point of having so many people in the house? It’s so annoying!

It’s better to return to the Lake Bay Villa.

Over there, Tang Yanqi had already quickly gotten out of bed, went into the bathroom for a quick wash, changed her clothes, and followed Sheng Jianan downstairs.

All the Sheng Family members were sitting at the dining table. Seeing them come down, Mrs. Sheng hurriedly instructed someone to serve breakfast.

The incident from last night had been witnessed by Mrs. Sheng. Although Tang Yanqi didn’t know if she had seen it all, she still felt a bit awkward inside. Watching Mrs. Sheng personally bring the milk to her, Tang Yanqi quickly stood up to express her thanks.

Looking up, her gaze inadvertently met Mrs. Sheng’s, and Tang Yanqi’s heart tightened. She didn’t know if it was just her imagination, but there seemed to be something profound in Mrs. Sheng’s eyes.

Tang Yanqi was quick-witted. Thinking about the previous things Mrs. Sheng had said to her in the hospital, and then thinking about what she might have seen last night, Tang Yanqi understood.

Mrs. Sheng didn’t like her. Tang Yanqi knew it since the incident at the Sheng Family’s old house. During the time in the hospital, Mrs. Sheng had made it clear, but Tang Yanqi didn’t let it bother her because she knew she and Sheng Jianan would eventually part ways, and the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law relationship between her and Mrs. Sheng wouldn’t last long.

But what happened last night was unexpected, and Mrs. Sheng happened to see it.

Quickly finishing breakfast, Tang Yanqi stood up and politely said, "I have a class this morning, so I’ll head to school first. Grandpa, Dad, Mom, please enjoy breakfast."

After speaking, Tang Yanqi wanted to make a getaway. Mrs. Sheng’s gaze was really making her feel uneasy; she couldn’t enjoy the rich breakfast at the Sheng Family’s old house.

Before she could leave, Sheng Jianan elegantly wiped his mouth with a napkin and stood up, "I’ll take you."

"Jianan, won’t you eat a bit more? Today, I specifically asked the chef to make your favorite shrimp dumplings."

Mrs. Sheng looked a bit displeased at Sheng Jianan’s barely touched breakfast and spoke coldly, giving Tang Yanqi a cold glance afterward.

Tang Yanqi didn’t look at Mrs. Sheng, but she still sensed Mrs. Sheng’s displeasure and quickly spoke up, "No need, I can go by myself." ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ NoveI★Fire.net

Sheng Jianan had already put on his coat, gently touched her hair, and smiled tenderly: "It’s okay, I’ll take you."

Watching them walk away side by side, Mr. Sheng smiled contentedly: "Jianan and Yanqi’s relationship is getting better and better."

Mrs. Sheng’s eyes flashed with a hint of coldness, and her hand under the table clenched tightly.

Outside, Tang Yanqi got into Sheng Jianan’s car with a look of frustration. Come on, couldn’t he stop making her the scapegoat?

That look from Mrs. Sheng was clearly accusing her of not letting her son eat well, and she couldn’t believe that with Sheng Jianan’s intelligence, he couldn’t see it.

Mrs. Sheng already didn’t like her, and now it’s even worse, even more dislike. If you want to know what a lousy team player is, just look at the person next to her.
