Chapter 35: Madam Xiao


"Madam, we're at the mall." The driver went to deliver food to s.h.i.+ Bins.h.i.+, so Zhou Yan took over the driver's role and sent Yuan Shu to the mall.


While waiting for Madam Xiao to arrive, Zhou Yan asked, "Madam, do you need me to follow you? I can help carry your bag."


"There's no need. You can take a walk yourself or wait for me in the car. I'm shopping with Madam Xiao. How can you follow me?" Yuan Shu rejected Zhou Yan's good intentions and saw that the Xiao family's car wasn't far away.


s.h.i.+ Bin, who had just finished cla.s.s, took the lunch box from the maid. The cla.s.smate beside him couldn't help but tease him, "Did Young Master s.h.i.+ receive a gift? Which family's young lady sent you this food? Hurry up and open it for us to see what delicious food is there!"


s.h.i.+ Bin opened the lunch box. On the upper layer, there were two small and beautiful lotus cakes. On the lower layer, there were some seasonal fruits with water droplets. They looked very delicious.


s.h.i.+ Bin picked up a blueberry and put it in his mouth.


"It's not from a suitor. It's from… my family." s.h.i.+ Bin was still unable to say the word 'sister-in-law' and could only gloss over it.


As he looked at the exquisite and beautiful lotus cake, a strange feeling of warmth suddenly welled up in his heart. It was as if a seed that had been sealed for a long time had suddenly sprouted and bloomed into a budding lotus flower.


This small lunch box was the warmth he had yearned for since he was young.


"Madam, you didn't agree to come out shopping with me just to shop, right?" Madam Xiao and Yuan Shu sat in the cafe ad they waited for the drinks to be delivered.


Madam Xiao's name was Liu Lan, and she was born into a scholarly family.


After Mr. Xiao took over the family's company, he opened a law firm. The couple was an exception in the upper-cla.s.s circle. The two of them were childhood sweethearts and were very loving.


Moreover, they were not like other aristocratic families who were eager to curry favor with the s.h.i.+ family when they were at their peak but when s.h.i.+ Xiao disappeared, they wished they could cut off all ties and see the s.h.i.+ family fall. Back then, the two of them had asked the Host if she needed help, but they were scolded by the ungrateful Host.


When she recalled these memories yesterday, Yuan Shu even got someone to prepare a gift for the Xiao couple to apologize for the Host.


"I was in the wrong for what happened before. At that time, I was muddle-headed and said harsh words to you and your wife. I want to apologize for this. This is a small gift that I hope you can accept." Yuan Shu handed over the carefully selected teacup.


She found out from s.h.i.+ Lu that the Xiao couple liked to collect antiques, calligraphy, and paintings, so she brought Zhou Yan to choose one personally.


"Madam, you're too polite. That matter is already in the past. Why mention it again?" Liu Lan accepted the gift while smiling at Yuan Shu.


"Madam, there should be many people inviting you out during this period of time. You didn't just ask me out to shop, right?"


Yuan Shu smiled as well. She liked interacting with smart people.


"You can call me Yuan Shu. There's no need for us to be so formal. I didn't call you out just to shop. I wonder if you've heard of the company 'Yuan An'?"


As the two of them chatted, the coffee was served. Yuan Shu picked up the cup and took a sip before putting it down without changing her expression.


So the people of this era called the medicine they drank coffee.


She didn't know what coffee treated, but all medicine was slightly poisonous, so she shouldn't drink it.


Liu Lan seemed to know what Yuan Shu wanted to do. When she was in university, she majored in law, and this company called Yuan An was currently in danger. Although it wasn't serious, it would pose a huge threat in the future.


Liu Lan wanted to refuse, but when she looked up, she met Yuan Shu's sparkling eyes.


"Madam Xiao, are you willing to believe me this once and cooperate with me?"


s.h.i.+ Lu, who was still filming, watched as the a.s.sistant took the lunch box from the maid. He was speechless.


What was Yuan Shu trying to do?! Did she treat him as a three-year-old child? She even asked someone to send food over. Those who didn't know better would think that the s.h.i.+ family was so loving that even his sister-in-law cared so much about him.


"Cut! This scene is over!" Director Chen stared at the monitor and shouted.


"His performance is really good! Especially the twitch at the corner of his mouth. It perfectly portrays his disdain and speechlessness when he heard the news." Chen Sheng was still praising s.h.i.+ Lu when he saw him take a lunch box from his a.s.sistant and stuff it into his arms.


"Yuan Shu sent it over. I'm on a diet. You can eat it instead."
