Chapter 28

Shen family.

Shen Xun worked overtime for a while and came back at eight o'clock. Although he was complained about by his sister, he didn't care about her.

As he walked in, he saw Lin Shutong sitting in front of the dining table, looked around, and didn't see Jiang Lai.

Shen Xun looked at the gift in his hand and said: "Dad, Mom, Jiang Lai had something temporary, this is something she asked me to bring."

Shen's father and mother looked over, not believing it at all.

Jiang Lai was planning to divorce, so why would she come to the Shen family?

Their son was really hooked by Jiang Lai; he had to help her save face even if she didn't come.

Shen's father and mother thought that Jiang Lai was finally going to roll out of the Shen family, and they were happy in their hearts, so they wouldn't care about this little thing.

Lin Shutong, on the other hand, heard Shen Xun mention Jiang Lai as soon as he got home, and her silver teeth were almost bitten to pieces.

"A-Xun, why so late today?" She got up and went over; Shen Xun subconsciously handed her his coat, but Lin Shutong didn't take it.

He reacted; every time he came home, it was Jiang Lai who hung his clothes.

Jiang Lai wasn't here today.

Shen Xun hung the clothes himself and asked softly: "Why didn't you tell me when you came over?"

Lin Shutong was surprised and noticed Shen Xi looking at them, then reacted to what was going on.

Shen Xi was matching them in the middle.

Lin Shutong said happily: "I didn't come because of you, I came because of Xiao Xi."

"Sister Shutong came for my sake, not for your sake." Shen Xi hummed proudly, looking at her brother who sat over, and complained again, "I clearly told you yesterday that I called Sister Shutong over, and you said okay, so how did you forget!"

"Work was too busy, didn't look at the message carefully." Shen Xun took out a jewelry box, "Birthday gift."

Shen Xi opened it impatiently, a ruby necklace, she "wow"ed, and immediately put it on.

"Thank you, brother!"

It was just that the gem was a bit small.

Shen Xun saw her stroking the gem and explained: "Recently, money is a bit tight, I'll buy you a bigger one next year."

Recently, he didn't need to send research funding to Shutong, but he had just bought a large flat, and the cash in his hand was only five or six million, so he couldn't spend it in this place.

Shen Xi nodded: "Oh."

She knew, the money must have been deducted by Jiang Lai again!

Jiang Lai, this bitch, has no ability to earn money, only knows how to use her brother's, and even keeps her brother's money for herself and doesn't give it to her and Dad and Mom to spend!

"It's okay, I won't be angry with brother." Shen Xi didn't see Jiang Lai today, and her mood was much better, raising her glass to celebrate her birthday with her family.

During the period, she didn't forget to let Lin Shutong drink more.

Lin Shutong smiled and responded.

But she was stopped by Shen Xun: "Xiao Xi, don't persuade her to drink anymore, it's not good to get drunk and go back."

"So what if she doesn't go back? Just sleep at our house, it's not like we don't have a room." Shen Xi didn't care; she just wanted Lin Shutong to stay, because her brother would definitely stay here tonight.

It was like this every year, and the room bedding was changed by the nanny in advance.

Lin Shutong smiled and said: "Okay, our project hasn't been busy recently, just waiting for the bidding."

Shen's father asked: "Is it that confidential research project?"

Lin Shutong nodded: "Yes."

Shen's father didn't ask anything else, just said: "I don't know if it hooks up with Star Universe here?"

Instantly, the Shen family looked at Lin Shutong.

Lin Shutong smiled and said to Shen Xun: "Can prepare, anyway, opportunities are left for those who are prepared."

A sentence made Shen's father laugh, and Shen's mother also reacted; isn't this saying it's possible?

Shen Xun looked at Lin Shutong, but was worried: "Will you have any problems?"

"I didn't say anything." Lin Shutong blinked at him, "Did I say anything just now?"

Shen's father was very sensible and immediately said: "No, just one sentence is right, prepared is better than unprepared."

Shen's mother raised her glass: "Let's toast to this happy day today!"

Shen Xun also smiled.

After the family finished eating, Lin Shutong was indeed a little dizzy.

Shen's mother took her hand and said affectionately: "Shutong, sleep here tonight, I asked the nanny to clean up the room next to A-Xun."

"Thank you, Auntie." Lin Shutong's smile was gentle, her gaze looking at Shen Xun on the side.

Shen Xun was sending a message to Jiang Lai.

【Why didn't you come back today?】

【Didn't I tell you to come over tonight? Xiao Xi's birthday, once a year.】

Jiang Lai replied.

【The family doctor came to check on the teacher's wife, I have no time.】

Shen Xun said again.

【If you can't come, at least the gift should arrive, otherwise what would Dad and Mom think?】

They didn't like you much anyway.

This sentence was in Shen Xun's heart, and he didn't type it out.

【But it's okay, I sent it for you this time, Dad and Mom didn't say anything, don't do this next time.】

There was no reply for a long time on the opposite side.

"A-Xun?"

Lin Shutong was calling him; he turned off the screen and turned around, asking softly: "What's wrong?"

"I seem to have something I haven't told you yet." Lin Shutong patted the seat beside her, her cheeks flushed after drinking, and her smile was a little blurry.

Shen Xun asked the nanny to boil a cup of hangover soup before sitting over.

Seeing the two sitting together, the Shen family's eyes were shining.

Shen's father: Sure enough, only a daughter of a big family can be worthy of my son.

Shen's mother: My son and Lin Shutong are a pair!

Shen Xi: Ah ah ah! Sister Shutong, hurry up and become my sister-in-law, kick Jiang Lai and hurry up to the top!

"What do you want to say?" Shen Xun turned his head and asked, noticing her hair was a little messy, and reached out to smooth it.

Lin Shutong looked at him affectionately: "You know about the technology exhibition hosted by the Ke Clan, right? Are you going to the party in the evening?"

Shen Xun nodded: "Going."

"Then who are you taking?" Lin Shutong said, "This kind of party usually brings a male or female companion."

Shen Xi immediately said: "Of course my brother is taking Sister Shutong!"

"Then what about Jiang Lai?" Lin Shutong opened her innocent eyes.

Shen Xi: "She's not worthy! Going is just making my brother look ugly. My brother is the president of Star Universe Technology, taking a country bumpkin to attend a party? How can my brother lift his head in the future."

Shen Xun originally intended to take Jiang Lai, but hearing Shen Xi's words, he felt it made sense.

Not to mention that Jiang Lai was now Ke Zhongyu's secretary, which would make him even more embarrassed.

Where is there a president's wife who goes to be a secretary for other men?

Shen's mother also followed: "Jiang Lai is suitable for cooking and washing clothes at home, not suitable for this kind of place, and speaking of bringing a female companion, Shutong is the most suitable."

Shen Xun nodded: "Mm."

Getting the answer she wanted, Lin Shutong was full of smiles and supported her chin, saying: "But I have an invitation myself, I can go by myself."

Shen Xun reacted: "Almost forgot, your status is not ordinary after returning to the country."

"Then, can you take me?" Shen Xi's eyes lit up, "Brother, can I go?"

Shen's mother's eyes rolled; that's right! Shutong has an invitation herself, so let Xiao Xi go, maybe she can catch a golden turtle son-in-law!

"Son, take Xiao Xi."

Shen Xi nodded repeatedly.

Shen Xun felt it was okay and nodded.

Lin Shutong teased him deliberately: "It seems President Shen has already found another female companion, then can I find a male companion to go?"

The second sentence was a deliberate probe.

"Can I? A-Xun."

Shen Xun said: "No."
