[R18] Addicted to pampering you: The mysterious wife of the military master – “Addicted to Pampering You: The Military Master’s Mysterious Wife” Chapter 578 [English]
byEpisode 4 1. Late for the first meeting
In the coffee shop, Shen Junze sat by the window and glanced at the watch in his hand. It was already twelve o’clock, half an hour after the agreed time, but the other party hadn’t come yet. He frowned slightly, and was about to take out his mobile phone to make a call. He saw the white rose on the table in the corner of his eye. After thinking about it, he took his hand out of his pocket. Forget it, wait for another half hour. If the other party doesn’t come, it won’t be too late for him to leave.
He went out for a blind date today. The person was introduced by Chu Yunrong. This was already the fourth person Chu Yunrong introduced to him. He had rejected the previous ones for various reasons. If Shen Qinglan hadn’t spoken to this one, he still wouldn’t have planned to meet him.
He is very busy now, with a lot of things in the company, and being young, he is really not anxious about major events in his life. However, Chu Yunrong is very concerned about it, and introduces partners to him every three days, and grandpa often talks about it intentionally or unintentionally.
Among the three children of the Shen family, he is indeed the only one left alone. He can understand the mood of Chu Yunrong and his grandfather, which is why he agreed to come out to meet each other this time.I just didn’t expect that the other party was late and made him wait for half an hour.
If it were normal, even if Shen Junze was displeased, he would not have any objections. After all, some people like to use such methods to test people’s hearts. But this afternoon, he has a very important video conference, which is related to the company’s development in the next three years. He has to be away, for half an hour at most. If the other party does not come within half an hour, he will really leave.
Shen Junze thought lightly.
Time passed by minute by minute, and in ten minutes it would be half an hour. He picked up the cold coffee on the table and took a sip, gradually losing patience.
Just when he was hesitating whether to leave a few minutes early, the other party appeared, panting slightly, “Are you Shen Junze? I’m sorry, my car broke down halfway. I hurried and took my time to get here. I’m very sorry for making you wait for me for so long.”
Wang Ning apologized as soon as they met, with a sincere look on her face.
Shen Junze’s eyes moved around the other person’s face, and he stretched out his hand, “Hello, I am Shen Junze.”
“I’m Wang Ning. I’m really sorry. I didn’t mean to be late. My car broke down and I couldn’t get a taxi for a while, so I walked over.”
Shen Junze smiled slightly, “It’s okay, but Miss Wang, I have something very important this afternoon, so I can’t talk to you for a long time. We still have about half an hour, I hope you don’t mind.” He believed that what the other party said was true. There was a thin layer of sweat on the other party’s forehead, and he obviously ran here.
Wang Ning only felt that this was the other party’s dissatisfaction with her being late. Although she was a little disappointed with the stinginess of the man in front of her, she didn’t say anything. She sat down opposite Shen Junze and said, “What happened today is my fault.”
Having said that, what happened today was indeed an accident. She didn’t want to be late, nor did she want to test people’s hearts in this way.However, Shen Junze’s obvious expression of his ease was a bit too fussy. This was Wang Ning’s first impression of Shen Junze.
Probably because they were not very satisfied with each other’s first impression, the two sat in the coffee shop for less than twenty minutes before leaving. Shen Junze stood in front of the car and said to Wang Ning, “Miss Wang, where are you going later, I can take you there.”
Wang Ning had a polite smile on her face, “No, don’t you have something important to do later? I won’t delay you. The transportation here is convenient and it’s easy to get a taxi. I can just take a taxi myself.”
When Shen Junze saw that the other party insisted on refusing, he did not force himself. He nodded at the other party and drove away.Wang Ning looked at the car going away, smiled nonchalantly, and waved to a car, but her walking posture was a little strange at this time.
Because the car broke down halfway and she couldn’t get a taxi, she had no choice but to run over in order not to be late. Unexpectedly, she didn’t pay attention to the steps and sprained her foot. Fortunately, it wasn’t serious and she was able to meet Shen Junze without changing her expression.
She had just endured it until now, but the pain from her ankle made her very uncomfortable, so after taking a taxi, she went directly to the hospital.
“Ning Ning, what’s wrong with your feet?” Wang Ning returned home and saw her mother frowning at her.
Wang Ning smiled and said, “It’s okay. I accidentally developed a sprain when I came back. I’ve already seen the doctor and the doctor said it’s nothing serious. Don’t worry.”
The Queen Mother helped her daughter to sit down on the sofa, “Tell me about you, you are so careless when walking. By the way, didn’t you go to see the young man from the Shen family today? Did you see him?”
“I’ve seen it.”
After hearing this, the Queen Mother looked at her and asked, “How is he?” She had never met Shen Junze, but he was introduced by Chu Yunrong. She and Chu Yunrong were colleagues in the same orchestra and had worked together for many years. She was still very relieved about the person she introduced, otherwise she would not have let her daughter see him.
Wang Ning’s expression was indifferent, “It looks good, but I don’t think we are a good match.”
“What do you mean? You don’t like her?”
“Mom, what you said is not accurate enough. It should be said that we don’t like each other.”
The Queen Mother regretted, “It’s impossible. When I heard Yun Rong talk about it, I thought this young man was quite reliable.” After saying this, she thought of something and asked her daughter, “You sprained your ankle, and they didn’t send you back?”
“I took a taxi and came back by myself. What can I give as a gift? Besides, they don’t even know that I have a sprain.” Wang Ning is not a person who talks behind people’s backs. Even if she is dissatisfied with Shen Junze, she will not tell her mother. He is just a stranger who will never meet again, so there is nothing worth saying.
The Queen Mother disagreed, “That’s not what you said. Even if he didn’t know that your foot was injured, and saw that you didn’t drive, shouldn’t he still send you back? This is careless and ungentlemanly. I don’t think this person is as good as Yun Rong said. Come on, there is really no need to contact such a person. I don’t think it’s just right.”
The Queen Mother also paid little attention to Shen Junze. Her daughter was only twenty-four years old and was not so anxious about the marriage. If it weren’t for Chu Yunrong’s sake, she wouldn’t have done this this time.
At this time, a very similar scene also played out in the Shen family. Chu Yunrong knew that Shen Junze was going on a blind date with a girl today, so she specially asked Shen Junze to come back for dinner in the evening.
Now Shen Junyu and Wen Xiyao don’t live at home, Shen Qinglan has also married, leaving only Chu Yunrong and Mr. Shen at home, and occasionally Shen Qian. The home is much deserted than before, and Shen Junze does not associate with his biological mother and is always alone. Chu Yunrong is worried that he will not be able to live and eat alone, so he will often call him to ask him to come back and give him various kinds of health care.
Shen Junze knew what Chu Yunrong wanted to know, but he pretended not to understand and buried himself in his meal.Chu Yunrong looked at him and thought he was too busy to eat. She kept picking up food for him and said, “Eat more and eat slowly.”
Shen Junze nodded casually and wanted to leave after eating, “Auntie, I’ll go back after I’ve finished eating.”
Chu Yunrong came out of the kitchen, “Wait, I have something else to ask you, please sit down first.”
Shen Junze smiled bitterly. Sure enough, he couldn’t escape easily. He sat down obediently. Mr. Shen, who was rare, did not go upstairs and sat down after him.
Chu Yunrong wiped off the water on her hands and looked at Shen Junze with a smile, “How do you feel after entering Wang Ning today?”
Shen Junyu didn’t mention the fact that the other party made him wait for fifty minutes, and just said, “A very nice girl.”
“Does that mean you have a good impression of her?” Chu Yunrong’s eyes lit up.
“Auntie, I didn’t mean that. She is a good girl, but I don’t think the two of us are that suitable. We have nothing in common. You see, she is studying music, but I know nothing about music. Why should I talk to her?”
“Common topics can also be cultivated. If you talk more, won’t you find common topics after you get to know each other?”
Mr. Shen strongly agrees with Chu Yunrong’s point of view, “I think your aunt is right. If you deny someone as soon as you meet them, since you think they are good, try to get in touch with them. Good girls are in high demand.” Mr. Shen is very concerned about Shen Junze’s marriage. He is afraid that he will imitate his father and find someone unreliable.
Shen Junze: …If I had known that he would not say that she was a good girl from the beginning, would this be considered as digging a hole for myself?
“Grandpa, eldest aunt, even if I like someone, they may not like me. It’s not sweet to be stubborn.” Shen Junze tried to put the two elders in the family away from their thoughts from the other person’s perspective.
“Wang Ning said this to you?” Chu Yunrong was suspicious.
“That’s not true. I saw it.” Shen Junze said.
“That is to say, this is what you guessed. You can’t be accurate. How can you men understand the little thoughts of your daughter’s family.” Chu Yunrong was relieved. As long as she didn’t tell her directly, she still had a chance.
Hearing this, Mr. Shen spoke, “Yunrong, please call me and ask them about their attitude.”
Chu Yunrong nodded, stood up and went to make a phone call, not giving Shen Junze a chance to stop him. Shen Junze couldn’t leave now, so he had to sit here and wait.
Chu Yunrong’s side ended quickly and she came back not long after. Shen Junze looked at Shen Junze intently. Shen Junze’s eyelids jumped. He said something, and the eldest aunt looked at him with such eyes.
Just when Shen Junze’s eyelids were twitching, Chu Yunrong spoke, “Junze, it doesn’t matter. Auntie knows many good girls. If this one doesn’t work, let’s look at the next one. We will always find one that suits our needs. In my opinion, Wang Ning is not that good.”
Is this consolation?Shen Junze thought faintly that it seemed that the other party did not like he, so that was good, as it would save him trouble.
“Auntie, I’m not in a hurry.”
Chu Yunrong only thought that Shen Junze was speaking kindly, and she felt a faint sympathy in her heart. She finally fell in love with a girl, but the other party didn’t like Shen Junze.
Patting Shen Junze on the shoulder, “Don’t worry Junze, my eldest aunt will definitely find someone you like.” As he said this, he secretly wondered if there was another suitable candidate.
