Mr. Xiao, can I borrow your wedding invitation?

Chapter 453 They are a perfect match

Xiao Shen crossed his long legs, toying with a tinderbox in his hand, clicking and snapping as it opened and closed with a crisp, clear sound.

"Old man, what era are we living in? Why are you still clinging to those old feudal ideas?"

"Hmph! You don't care, but the girl does. If you're going to live a good life together, then give her a decent wedding. Otherwise, what kind of talk is that? Did you choose the date or did I?"

Xiao Shen said lazily, "We'll see!"

"you!"

Grandpa Xiao was too annoyed to care. "Let's put the wedding aside for now. You two need to hurry up and have a child, right? You're not getting any younger. In a few years, your health will decline, and it's uncertain whether you'll even be able to conceive. Hurry up while you're still young. Look at the eldest son's and fifth son's families, they're already old enough to run errands!"

When Qian Ke'er returned from washing her hands, she heard Grandpa Xiao asking about Xiao Shen's childbirth. She suddenly stopped in her tracks and clenched her fists nervously.

This time, the tinderbox in Xiao Shen's hand did not go out. The pale blue flames reflected on half of his face, making him look wicked, arrogant, and unrestrained.

His dark pupils stared intently, as if he were deep in thought.

As the fire died down, the man let out a self-deprecating laugh. "Life is good enough as it is. Why have children? You already have so many around you, aren't you satisfied?"

"You brat..." Old Master Xiao was exasperated.

"Uncle Xiao!" Qian Ke'er appeared at the right time and naturally took Xiao Shen's arm, pretending not to know anything. "What are you talking about?" "Work-related matters, Ke'er. Fourth Brother is a workaholic. You must keep an eye on him. Work is important, but health is even more important. If you overwork yourself at such a young age, it will cause you health problems later!" Old Master Xiao instructed.

Qian Ke'er nodded, "Don't worry, Uncle Xiao, I would have done it even if you hadn't told me!"

"Why are you calling me Uncle Xiao? Child, you need to change how you address me!"

Qian Ke'er blushed shyly, "Yes, Dad!"

The two young people left the Xiao family's old house. As soon as they stepped out the door, Xiao Shen pulled his arm away, saying, "Didn't I tell you to go back to Baicheng?"

The sudden emptiness in her palm made Qian Ke'er feel a void in her heart. She innocently explained, "I don't want to. It's too boring to go back alone unless you come with me!"

"Do as you please!" Xiao Shen said coldly, "But you'd better get my permission before you come to the Xiao family's old residence again!"

"Why? I'm a daughter-in-law of the Xiao family now. Why do I need your permission to go back to my own home? Brother Shen, don't you think that's ridiculous?"

Xiao Shen paused, his hand still holding the car door. He turned to glance at her, his gaze devoid of any warmth. "You have to play by my rules, or we can't continue!"

Qian Ke'er bit her lip, her face filled with grief. After hesitating for a moment, she got into the car.

Halfway there, she dragged Xiao Shen to the mall, saying she wanted to buy jewelry.

Xiao Shen retorted, "Aren't all your jewelry pieces custom-made? You actually like what you see in these department store items?"

"I like anything that Brother Shen picks for me!" Qian Ke'er said expectantly.

However, when they arrived at the jewelry section, Xiao Shen didn't participate at all. He preferred to sit on the side and read magazines. At Qian Ke'er's insistence, he perfunctorily picked out a few pieces.

These were not Qian Ke'er's style at all, nor were they the styles she liked. Nevertheless, Qian Ke'er still accepted them because Xiao Shen had chosen them.

"Qingfeng, why don't you try this one on?"

"Wow, that looks great! Wait, your collar isn't fixed properly!"

"Why don't you try this tie again?"

"It really matches your coat!" Su Ying stood on tiptoe, straightening Shen Qingfeng's collar and tying his tie, her eyes overflowing with love.

"Sir, your wife has excellent taste!"

"The lady is very beautiful, no less so than a female celebrity!"

"Thank you!" Shen Qingfeng squeezed Su Ying's hand.

"Oh, ma'am, your shoelace is untied!" the waiter reminded her.

"Don't move, I'll do it!" Just as Su Ying was about to bend down, Shen Qingfeng stopped her. He knelt down and deftly tied Su Ying's shoelaces again.

The envious and congratulatory glances from everyone made Su Ying a little embarrassed.

"Um, I can handle this kind of thing myself next time!"

"It's okay, I'm willing!"

The two, like husband and wife in harmony, enacted a deeply affectionate love story.

This scene moved those around it, but it stung someone else.

Xiao Shen's magazine was crumpled from being handled so much. Look at Su Ying's smile; she's even happier than when she's with him.

What can that young doctor offer her? Is she so easily satisfied?
"Brother Shen, I've bought them!" Qian Ke'er walked over, and the next second, as if she had just noticed, she exclaimed in surprise, "Isn't that Miss Su and Dr. Shen? Brother Shen, should we go say hello?"

Before Xiao Shen could even speak, she dragged him over.

"Miss Su, Dr. Shen, what a coincidence!" Qian Ke'er greeted them with a smile.

Su Ying knew her best. She was not as harmless as she appeared on the surface. On the contrary, she was brainless and vicious. Her sweetness was just a facade.

Neither Su Ying nor Shen Qingfeng wanted to talk to her, only Qian Ke'er muttered to herself, "Oh, Brother Shen insisted on dragging me here, saying he wanted me to pick out a few pieces of jewelry I liked. None of the styles here are nice, so I reluctantly picked out a few pieces as a token of Brother Shen's appreciation!" "Miss Ke'er, you don't need to tell us these things, we're not interested. Excuse me, I'll leave you here!" After Shen Qingfeng finished speaking, he took Su Ying's hand and left.

Xiao Shen didn't say a word the whole time, his eyes were glued to Su Ying from beginning to end, never leaving her for a moment.

He witnessed Shen Qingfeng's meticulous care for Su Ying, and Su Ying's response and contentment with Shen Qingfeng. Especially the way they left hand in hand at the end, Xiao Shen was consumed by jealousy and envy.

“Brother Shen, look how well they match! Su Ying still has some self-awareness; she's only good enough for a man like Shen Qingfeng…”

Before he could finish speaking, Xiao Shen coldly brushed his hand away, "Have you had enough of the show? Are you satisfied now?"

"Brother Shen, wait for me! I just wanted to show you that Su Ying is someone else's wife now. She's not good enough for you, and she has no feelings for you anymore, Brother Shen..."

Qian Ke'er chased after him frantically in her high heels...

Shen Qingfeng had surgery that evening, so Su Ying picked Tian Tian up from Su Wen's place. Usually, Shen Qingfeng would pick her up because Su Ying finishes work very late. Today was an exception, but it was still very late when she got back.

As she passed the stairwell, a crimson glint flickered in the shadows not far away. Even from a few meters away, Su Ying felt a chill that didn't belong to this season.

My heart skipped a beat.

"Mommy, there's an uncle smoking over there..."

"Sweetie, let's go upstairs quickly!" Su Ying held Sweetie's little hand tightly and quickened her pace to go upstairs.

After helping Tian Tian wash up, the little girl climbed into bed. Since she had class the next day, Su Ying turned off the bedroom light early.
