My Secretary is a Little Sweet
Translator: 549690339
Jing Rui arrived at his house with Shuyin at around 11 pm.
Shuyin had been very nervous, but the moment she saw Shangguan ning, she forgot all about it.
Shangguan ning was too young!
She looked more like Jing Ruiâs sister than a mother of two.
Shuyin was stunned for a while until Jing Rui squeezed her hand and motioned for her to call for someone. She hesitated and called out,âaunt.â
She felt that calling Shangguan ning âAuntieâ made her sound old.
Shangguan ning was wearing a bright orange dress and a white cardigan. She didnât have any makeup on, but her skin was so fair that not a single wrinkle could be seen.
Her long black hair fell softly over her shoulders, like the best silk, shining with a faint luster.
She exuded an elegant and gentle temperament from head to toe. There was a smile on her beautiful face, and she had the vitality and freshness of a young man.
Shuyin felt that if she had met Shangguan ning on the street, she would never have thought that she was Jing Ruiâs mother.
Shuyin looked at Shangguan ning in a daze, which made Jing Yichen happy.
He took a look at his wife and felt that Shangguan ning was indeed the most beautiful. Shuyin was stunned as soon as she arrived.
Shangguan ning also knew that Shuyin was surprised at her young age, because she had seen such a scene many times.
Many people thought that it was normal for her to have a daughter as old as Jing Xi. No one would have thought that she had a 20-year-old son.
She took the gift from Shuyin with a smile and handed it to Jing Yichen. Then she pulled Shuyin into the living room and sat down.
âItâs Yinyinâs first time at home, so donât be shy. Just treat it as your own home! Later, Ruirui will show you around. Our house is quite big!â
Jing Xi also joined in the fun and said with a smile,ââOur house is big. You and brother can stay here tonight!â
She wanted to call Shuyin âsister-in-lawâ, but she was worried that it would make Shuyin embarrassed if she called her that in front of the whole family. In the end, she held back.
Shuyin was indeed a little embarrassed. She touched Jing Xiâs head and smiled at Shangguan ning.âAuntie, youâre so young and beautiful!â
Shangguan ning smiled happily. Before she could say anything, Jing Rui interrupted her. âItâd be a wonder if sheâs not young. My dad takes care of everything at home, so she doesnât have to worry about anything. Even her daughter is now being taken care of by my son. All she does every day is play basketball, do her beauty, and travel.â
Shangguan ning glared at her son.âGo talk to your dad in the study room. Donât stand here, Iâm dizzy!â
Jing Rui laughed and shook his head. Yinyinâs only been here for a day!â
He nodded to Shuyin and followed Jing Yichen to the study.
Jing Yichen looked much gentler than the last time he saw Shuyin. Jing Rui knew that it must be because of his mother.
However, this was only relative. When he didnât speak, he still looked cold.
After the two men left, the living room seemed to immediately become much more relaxed.
Shuyin was a bit scared of Jing Yichen. She didnât know where to put her hands and feet under his cold stare.
Women always had a lot to talk about, and Shangguan ning and Shuyin both wanted to make each other like them more, so they soon started to talk about it.
Coupled with Jing Xiâs occasional childâs talk, the atmosphere became relaxed and pleasant.
Half an hour later, Jing Rui and Jing Yichen came out of the study and heard the three of them laughing in the living room.
Lunch was already prepared in the kitchen, and they went to the dining room to eat.
The family had never had the habit of eating without speaking, so they had a happy and harmonious meal.
When Shuyin left in the afternoon, she had already talked to Shangguan ning about everything.
âYour parents are very nice and have a good relationship. Itâs rare!â
Shuyin couldnât help but sigh when they returned to Jing Ruiâs Villa.
Jing Rui rested his head on Shuyinâs lap, feeling very comfortable.
âOur relationship will be very good too. Youâll know just by looking at how my dad treats my mom. Iâll treat you the same way in the future.â
His parents had never really quarreled in their lives.
For one thing, Shangguan ning was not the kind of woman who would throw a tantrum. She was content with what she had. For another, no matter what happened, Jing Yichen would always bow down to his wife and put her in his arms.
Jing Rui had laughed at his father for being a henpecked husband when he was a child. He had only realized after he grew up that it was not that his father was afraid of his mother, but that he loved her enough.
His gentleness, tolerance, pampering, and concession reflected a manâs breadth of mind and the attitude that a husband should have.
Jing Rui hoped that he and Shuyin would not have any quarrels in the future, and that they would only have love.
Shuyin wasnât someone who liked to make a fuss. She was very rational and didnât have any ambitions. She liked children and stability, so she was a very Good Wife candidate.
Shuyin had witnessed how much Jing Yichen loved his wife.
She was extremely shocked. She had never thought that the cold Jing Yichen could have such a gentle and considerate side.
If Jing Rui was really like him, then his future life would be wonderful.
Shu Yinâs fingers touched Jing Ruiâs face gently, subconsciously tracing his perfect facial outline.
âI believe you,â she said softly.
Jing Rui caught her soft hands and kissed them.ââWhen are we getting engaged? You pick a day, Iâll prepare!â
âThis ... Isnât this a little too fast?â
Shuyin always felt that it was not real. How did she become Jing Ruiâs girlfriend?
They could spend the rest of their lives together?
Would she have another person in her life from now on?
She was a little uneasy and nervous for some reason.
âItâs not fast at all. The engagement will take at least a month to prepare. â
Jing Rui felt that it was already very slow. Every time he got close to Shuyin, he had the urge to turn her into his woman.
Shuyin didnât say anything. She didnât know what to say.
She would miss Jing Rui unconsciously when she could not see him, and she would feel empty when he was not by her side.
Jing Rui didnât need Shuyinâs response. As long as she didnât object too much, he would take it as an agreement.
However, he finally realized that this could be considered as him proposing to Shuyin!
This was too informal!
No wonder Shuyin was hesitating!
Jing Rui reflected on himself and went to order a diamond ring and roses the next day.
Shuyin, on the other hand, didnât notice the problem of whether it was formal or not. She had never attended a wedding or an engagement before, and she didnât even know much about marriage proposals.
She used to live in a cage and was almost isolated from the world. The Research Instituteâs network had access restrictions, so she couldnât see everything as she pleased.
Therefore, she didnât have a clear concept of a proposal.
She never cared about the formalities, as long as the person she was engaged to was Jing Rui.
