Chapter 169: As for the child, please come down first
"What nonsense are you talking about!" Ling Zhen's face flushed, and she pinched the soft flesh on the inside of his arm. "If you make Grandpa angry, I'm afraid you'll regret it."
Tang Shuya pretended to be in excruciating pain, whimpered silently twice, then held her rebellious hand again and intertwined their fingers tightly again.
Ling Zhen glanced at Elder Tang sheepishly and struggled a bit, "Let go. Grandpa is still here. I need to behave properly in front of him."
Tang Shuya refused to let go, and the two of them kept exchanging glances and flirting with each other.
Seeing this, Mr. Tang rolled his eyes again and again, like waves on the sea.
He finally understood that his grandson was being completely dominated by this girl.
Old Master Tang coughed twice deliberately and tapped the bluestone floor with his cane. "I'm not dead yet! Go back and deal with whatever you need! Aren't you ashamed?"
After being told this by the elder, Ling Yuan blushed and glared at Tang Shuya, but Tang Shuya shrugged indifferently.
At this time, the butler came over and said that dinner was ready.
Mr. Tang sighed, "Forget it, forget it. Let's go eat first, and then you can get out."
At the dinner table, Mr. Tang had been observing Ling Zhen silently. He saw that she was well-mannered and had pretty good table manners.
Although the atmosphere was not very warm, it was still quite harmonious.
After dinner, Mr. Tang didn't keep anyone and just waved his hand and let them leave.
Tang Shuya took Ling Yuan's hand and walked slowly on the way out.
The night is all around, the moon is at its zenith, and an evening breeze blows by, carrying the fragrance of fallen grass petals in the air.
Tang Shuya turned her head to look at Ling Zhen. Under the night sky, her eyebrows and eyes seemed to be stained with water stains, and bits of water light flickered in her eyes.
His Adam's apple moved slightly, "Did I scare you today?"
In the dark night, his voice was hoarse and deep.
"Well, kind of. You don't have to be like this, actually."
She tried to pull her hand back several times, but Tang Shuya held it firmly.
"Why? I just want you to understand that what I said to you was not a joke."
He suddenly turned his eyes to look at her. Through the lens, she saw that under his black pupils, there seemed to be a sea of stars, with a ball of light and shadow shining inside. In that ball of light and shadow, she saw a small shadow.
It was herself.
Ling Zhen didn't know what he wanted to do, but his breathing slowed down.
"Have you ever thought about the consequences of doing this? And have you ever asked me if I really want to?"
"Ah Zhen, do you think I asked you to marry me in front of Grandpa because I was bored? Or do you think I ordered that wedding dress because I was bored? Aren't my actions enough to show my attitude?"
Ling Yuan looked up at him with red eyes. Her throat choked up, and after a few breaths, she finally opened her mouth to speak: "Tang Shuya, can I trust you?"
Tang Shuya suddenly stopped, turned around and faced her, restrained his expression, and spoke seriously: "This time, you can trust me. I won't let you down."
Her heart felt as if it had been struck hard, and a strong sense of sweetness swept over her.
Tang Shuya held her face in his hands and gently wiped away the tears that inadvertently seeped from the corners of her eyes with his thumbs.
Certain emotions were churning in his eyes, and he couldn't help but kiss her fiercely. However, the moment his lips touched hers, he softened unconsciously and licked and kissed her lightly with the care and attention that he would give her as a treasure.
She heard the sound of her rationality snapping, her mind went blank, her body and mind gave up struggling, and she enjoyed his passionate and affectionate kiss.
Ling Yuan patted his shoulders twice and said with a slight breath: "This is still grandpa's house, let's go."
Tang Shuya grabbed her hand and brought it to his lips and kissed it, "Okay, I'll listen to you."
His breathing quickened slightly, and his voice was slightly hoarse from the kiss just now.
She walked down the street holding hands with him as if they were lovers for the first time.
The way out was not long, but she had a strange feeling in her heart. She thought it would be better if the road was longer, or if they walked slower.
After Tang Shuya and Ling Zhen got in the car and it slowly drove away, the housekeeper on the second floor withdrew his gaze and turned to Mr. Tang and said, "Master, they're gone."
The old man snorted in annoyance, "What do they think this place is? They are so unscrupulous!"
The butler could tell there was no blame in Mr. Tang's tone, so he boldly asked, "As for Ling Yuan, should we…"
Mr. Tang raised his hand and said, "No need, just let them be."
The butler hesitated for a moment and said, "The young master has already started preparing for the wedding and even had a custom-made wedding dress ordered from a foreign country."
Elder Tang scoffed. "Let's prepare. I can see Ling Zhen might not be willing. It's better to let that kid hit a wall. As for the child, let's talk about it after the husband is born."
Although Tang Shuya is very filial, he is also a person with his own ideas. Old Master Tang knows very well that this kid has done things that are not without hypocrisy.
Old Master Tang is also an experienced person. If he clearly opposes it at this moment, it will only push his grandson further away. The more people oppose it, the more determined they will be.
He didn't want to become estranged from his grandson because of a woman.
After all, it was because of a woman that he became estranged from his son Tang Yongnian.
……
Tang Shuya was on a business trip, and Ling Zhen, seeing that he had nothing to do, started looking for a place in the garden to fiddle with the flowers and plants.
Now, everyone in the mansion treats her as the mistress and naturally complies with all her requests.
Tang Shuya's garden was very large and professional. She had lived here for so long but had never really taken a good look at it.
She brushed the dirt off her hands, drank some water, and said to Sister Yu beside her, "I want to walk around the garden by myself."
Seeing the worry in Sister Yu's eyes, she smiled and comforted her: "I'm fine. It's only been a short time and you're already so nervous. What will happen if the baby gets older in the next few months?"
Ling Zhen was born with this ability. Her smile was very contagious and made people unconsciously convinced.
Sister Yu thought that since they were all in their own garden, looking at the time, she might as well go to the kitchen to discuss tonight's dinner, so she stopped following Ling Ru.
Ling Yuan walked through a whole patch of bushes, and what came into view was a sea of irises.
The petals of irises are arranged closely together, like blooming butterflies.
The irises were dyed golden in the sunset, and their shapes resembled wind chimes, swaying gently in the breeze, which was extremely beautiful.
Ling Zhen's body was obviously stunned, his eyes wide open, as if he was immersed in something incredible.
My hands unconsciously covered my chest, feeling the abnormal heartbeat.
The meaning of iris flowers is different in each country.
Bright freedom.
It is one of the flower languages of iris.
It is Ling Ru's favorite flower language.
"Irises often grow in harsh environments, demonstrating their tenacious vitality and their yearning for freedom."
She had said this to Tang Shuya before she graduated from university.
At that time, I was hinting to him to set himself free.
The faint fragrance of irises was all around, a scent so familiar.
She had actually smelled this elegant, soft scent.
She closed her eyes and recalled carefully. When her eyelids slowly opened, she saw a tall figure standing next to a lush iris bush.
