800 An Unexpected Visitor
“Your brother gave it to me. He went to the mountain early in the morning to pick these flowers,” Shen Hanxing chuckled and fiddled with the petals. “Is it beautiful?”
“Big brother giving sister-in-law flowers? Big brother knows romance?” Ji Qian and Ji Mo couldn’t help but look at Ji Yan in shock as they thought. Even Ji Ning’s mouth was wide open in shock. They couldn’t be blamed for being shocked, as Ji Yan’s cold image was deeply rooted in their hearts. They were the ones who had even suggested bringing Shen Hanxing to see the fireflies. Now, he had taken the initiative to give Shen Hanxing flowers and even picked them himself. This was simply too unbelievable! Big brother had grown up! It was not in vain that his younger brothers and sisters had been so worried about his relationship with his sister-in-law.
Ji Qian and the others praised the flowers before they headed to the hot spring area. Shen Hanxing brought Ji Qian and Ji Ning to the women’s dressing area. The swimsuits that Ji Ning and Ji Qian had chosen were not revealing, and they covered all the areas that should be covered. However, they were still in swimsuits, and their long legs were exposed. Ji Qian looked at Shen Hanxing’s long, slender legs and slim waist, almost drooled. She looked at Shen Hanxing, then at herself, and couldn’t help but click her tongue.”Sister-in-law’s figure is sexy!”
When Ji Qian bought her swimsuits, she specifically bought three similar designs so that others could tell at a glance that they were a family. However, when they wore the same swimsuits, they looked completely different. Ji Ning was still young, and her body had yet to develop fully, but Ji Qian had already grown up! She looked at her body and hung her head listlessly. “Ah, I feel so inferior standing next to you. I have to cover myself.”
“You still look nice,” Shen Hanxing could not help but chuckle when she heard that. She lifted her hand to tie up her hair, revealing her fair neck. Her red lips curled up slightly. “Everyone is beautiful in their way. You look beautiful. What’s there to feel inferior about?” As she said this, she pinched Ji Qian’s cheek. “Tall, fat, and thin are all beautiful. As long as you are healthy, nothing else matters. You’re so good-looking, but you still feel inferior. What about the other girls?”
“I didn’t mean it that way.” Ji Qian laughed as well. “I’m just envious of sister-in-law’s beauty!” Big brother was fortunate that sister-in-law is so pretty! When their sister-in-law walked out later, their brother would be mesmerized.
The hot spring was very comfortable, and they felt much more relaxed after soaking in it. Seeing that it was about time, after a short rest, the group packed their things and prepared to go home. Shen Hanxing packed the bouquet again, and the group left together. Just as they reached the entrance of the farmhouse, they saw a petite figure curled up by the side of the road, looking rather pitiful.
“Miss Lu?” Shen Hanxing frowned in surprise. “What are you doing here?” She had met Lu Nuannuan a few times and had some impression of her.
Hearing Shen Hanxing’s voice, Lu Nuannuan’s curled-up body froze. She rubbed her eyes in embarrassment, then slowly got up and looked at Shen Hanxing with reddened eyes. “Mrs. Ji, can I have a word with you alone?”
To be honest, Shen Hanxing did not expect this to happen. After all, Lu Nuannuan had always been arrogant and disdainful towards her, thinking she was not worthy of Lu Shaoyang. But now, she looked so obedient, with a hint of pleading in her eyes, and even a little pitiful.
“What’s there to talk about between you and my sister-in-law?” Ji Qian couldn’t help but furrow her brows, looking a little displeased. “If you have something to say, just say it directly, or do you want to say something shameful?”
Lu Nuannuan bit her lip and didn’t say a word. Tears welled up in her eyes, and her face turned pale as if she was about to cry at any moment. If it were in the past, she would have jumped up and thrown a tantrum after hearing Ji Qian’s words. She would have asked Shen Hanxing to leave with her with a straight face. However, she was now lowering her head like someone who was being bullied. She did not refute Ji Qian’s words and obediently lowered her head without saying a word. There was a hint of stubbornness in her tone.
Shen Hanxing sighed when she saw Lu Nuannuan’s expression. Lu Nuannuan was still young, and her current expression made Shen Hanxing feel bad for her. Shen Hanxing did not have the habit of making things difficult for a young lady. After a moment of silence, she took two steps forward. Seeing that Lu Nuannuan was still standing in a daze, neither chasing after her nor leaving and merely standing there silently with tears in her eyes, Shen Hanxing had no choice but to say, “Didn’t you want to have a word with me? What are you waiting for?”
