Chapter 555: There are plenty of men

~7 min read 1,258 words

Her reaction was as light as a feather, and her tone was as casual as if she were agreeing to a trivial matter.

Shi's mother was stunned for a moment, almost doubting if her ears had gone wrong: "You, what did you say?"

"I said okay, no problem!" Shen Ci repeated it again without hesitation.

This time it was Shi's mother's turn to be shocked.

What does she mean? Doesn't she like Shi Ye? How could she agree to break up with Shi Ye so readily?

A strange feeling rose in Shi's mother's heart. If Shen Ci didn't agree, she would naturally be angry, but she also felt uncomfortable when Shen Ci agreed so readily, as if her son wasn't that important in her heart.

"He is not that important to me." Shen Ci added softly.

Shi's mother: "!?"

Her face was slightly blue, and for a while, she didn't know how to open her mouth to refute Shen Ci.

Shen Ci looked at her complexion and could roughly guess Shi's mother's inner thoughts. It was nothing more than seeking justice for her son. How could such an excellent Shi Ye be "abandoned" by a girl so easily and without any conditions.

But the pity is that she never liked Shi Ye's excellence.

"I have already agreed, and I will do what I say. Does Auntie have anything else? If not, please go back." Shen Ci said as she picked up the menu on the side, looked up at Shi's mother: "Or do you want to stay and have dinner with me?"

Shi's mother narrowed her eyes. She couldn't accept her son being looked down upon like this. Shen Ci's lightness was a provocation and an eyesore to her.

"So Shi Ye is insignificant to you at all, and your attitude towards him is just playing around?"

Shen Ci shook her head faintly and corrected: "Auntie, you misunderstood me. I have always been serious about feelings, but I never take them seriously. I can be on top, but I will also keep a clear head at the same time."

"Shi Ye is very good. If he opens his mouth to confirm the relationship with me today, I will agree and treat this relationship seriously."

"But..." Shen Ci looked at Shi's mother and said helplessly: "You don't agree, do you?"

Shi's mother snorted coldly: "But you didn't insist, did you?"

"Why should I insist?" Shen Ci asked back: "Will you agree if I insist?"

Shi's mother was silent.

Shen Ci smiled: "That's it. You won't agree, so what is the meaning of my insistence? To prove that Shi Ye is too excellent and I can't bear to part with him?"

"No need at all. I don't do useless work, and I won't stage a drama of fighting for Shi Ye with you to satisfy your vanity."

"The essence of love for me is a dual need of spirit and physiology, but it must be relaxed and pleasant. If there are too many interference items, I will take the initiative to withdraw."

"After all, I just want to fall in love, I don't want to marry him, and you won't become my mother-in-law, so I don't want to deal with you in this relationship with him. This is too troublesome."

"And what I hate most is trouble."

Shen Ci finished these words in a calm and slow tone. These words were indeed not very pleasant to Shi's mother, but they were truly Shen Ci's attitude towards love.

Love should be relaxed and pleasant, and the relationship between each other should be one-on-one. If you have to spend effort to deal with other people and things, then for her, the essence of love has changed. She doesn't want to exist in an intimate relationship that requires hard maneuvering.

Shi's mother didn't speak, just sat there for a long time, and the look in her eyes gradually changed. The anger and hostility disappeared, and turned to calm.

She didn't get angry, but opened her mouth: "Perhaps Shi Ye was right, you are an excellent girl."

Shi's mother is a university teacher. She has met and contacted many girls with different personalities, but few have such a clear head, great courage, and principles and standards like Shen Ci.

Especially at her current age.

Because no matter whether women are willing to admit it or not, they cannot deny that women are indeed mostly emotional animals, and emotions will subconsciously drive their behavior and expression.

But Shen Ci has independent thoughts that transcend her own age, and can express them in front of her without being humble or arrogant. This is too simple.

Facing the sudden change in Shi's mother's attitude and her praise, Shen Ci smiled generously and responded without humility: "It is indeed so."

Shi's mother picked up her bag and stood up, looking at Shen Ci: "But the pity is that Shi Ye really needs to focus on the postgraduate entrance examination at the moment. It can only be said that the timing is wrong. If it were the right time, I wouldn't oppose you."

"There is nothing to be a pity about." Shen Ci lowered her eyes, thinking in her heart "there are plenty of men".

But she didn't say the second half, which was a kindness in return for the praise Shi's mother just gave.

Shi's mother already knew Shen Ci's personality, so she didn't get angry when she heard "nothing to be a pity about", but smiled with appreciation: "Goodbye."

After Shi's mother left, the waiter came over to ask Shen Ci: "Beauty, do you want to order now?"

"Of course." Shen Ci smiled brightly, and was not affected by this matter. She elegantly opened the menu and pointed her finger at an expensive set meal: "Give me this one."

The waiter kindly reminded: "Beauty, this is a four-to-six-person meal. I see that the number of people booked for your seat tonight is two. There is a couple's meal behind."

"I want this one." Shen Ci said firmly.

The waiter didn't dare to say more, so he had to nod: "Okay."

After ordering, Shen Ci took out her mobile phone and made calls one by one.

Soon, Lianxing, Pili, Shen Yuzhen, Su Zheyuan, and Xiao Gao arrived one after another.

The earth still turns without men, friends are her necessities!

Shen Ci told the story of what happened today to several people. Lianxing was particularly excited: "My mother, it's even more exciting than TV dramas."

Su Zheyuan pouted: "So this Shi Ye is a mama's boy?"

Shen Ci shook her head and didn't think so: "Not really, it's just that his mother is indeed relatively strong. He should have resisted to no avail."

"So he's out?" Shen Yuzhen asked.

She felt a little pity for Shen Ci, because she felt Shi Ye was quite good, handsome and had a good personality, and Shen Ci also liked him.

But who could have expected a mother to come out halfway? This kind of thing is completely Shen Ci's minefield. If you meet it, you will die without any room.

"Have you tried it?" Shen Yuzhen suddenly leaned in and asked curiously.

With one sentence, the others also looked over in unison. Obviously, they were all old drivers and knew what Shen Yuzhen was asking.

Shen Ci brushed her hair and sighed with regret: "The loss is here. He has always been very confident in his strength. If I had known, I would have checked it first." ===== CHAPTER 556 =====
