Chapter 229: Chapter 229: Mr. Sheng Sure Has Many Secrets

On the other end of the phone, Sun Nanjue wailed and rolled around on the bed. His gossip-loving heart had been stirred up by Ah Chen in the dead of night, but he couldn’t continue; it was too damn painful.

The next day, Sheng Shaochen brought a deliberately dressed-up Ye Shu to the villa that Bai Yueru had purchased in Han City.

As soon as they entered the door, Bai Yueru greeted them with a big, beaming smile.

When she was a bit more than a meter away from Sheng Shaochen, she stopped in her tracks and waved at Ye Shu, "Xiao Shu, come here to mom, let me have a look at you. How could you have lost weight in just one day? Has that child Shaochen not been feeding you? Come, come, drink this soup quickly, it’ll nourish you."

While saying this, Bai Yueru directly pulled Ye Shu to sit down and served her a bowl of soup.

Looking at the clearly more potent and thicker tonic soup than the previous Hundred Treasure Soup, the corners of Ye Shu’s mouth twitched.

She glanced desperately towards the entrance.

At this moment, Sheng Shaochen was leaning against the door, his eyes smiling as he watched her, "Mother means well, just drink it."

emmmm, the Great Demon King was conspiring with his mother-in-law to scheme against her.

The more she drank this soup, the stronger it was, and her delicate body was surely going to be crushed by him.

Ye Shu pouted and gulped the soup down to the last drop.

Bai Yueru watched her finish the soup with a smile and did not forget to exchange a look with Sheng Shaochen, "Xiao Shu, I heard you won an award at the Cannes Film Festival yesterday? And the presenter was a handsome young man, also surnamed Sheng?"

"Pfft..." Ye Shu sprayed out a mouthful of soup.

Frightened, she grabbed some tissues to wipe the table while saying, "That, actually... "

"Silly child, I don’t mean to pry into your young people’s privacy. Ah, it just reminded me of Shaochen’s younger brother, ah... If he were still here, he’d probably be about the same age as that boy."

"Younger brother?" Ye Shu was stunned, her eyes incredulously lifting to look at Sheng Shaochen.

Right then, half of Sheng Shaochen’s face was hidden in shadows, and as he smoked, the smoke completely masked his expression, making it impossible to guess what he was thinking.

But she suddenly realized why he had said those things to her when Ye Zifeng had an accident; he must have been reminded of his own brother, right?

Yet, he had never mentioned this to her.

Ye Shu felt a certain complexity in her heart, realizing that there were still so many things she didn’t know about Mr. Sheng.

"Guan Jiu has checked; he is the illegitimate son of Chengshen Group’s Chairman Sheng Kun... Sheng Shuai..."

Sheng Shaochen pinched out the cigarette in his hand and exhaled these words.

A shade of disappointment crossed Bai Yueru’s face, "I know it couldn’t possibly be such a coincidence, it’s just that the boy also had peach blossom eyes. Ah..."

Peach blossom eyes? Ye Shu was taken aback; only now did she notice that Bai Yueru also had a pair of delicate peach blossom eyes.

Come to think of it, Handsome B did bear some resemblance to Bai Yueru, especially around his eyebrows and eyes.

Yet, listening to Sheng Shaochen’s tone, Sheng Shuai definitely wasn’t his brother.

Ye Shu reached out and took Bai Yueru’s hand, squeezing it tightly, "Auntie, don’t lose heart, you’ll find him someday for sure."

"Xiao Shu is right, everyone says he’s dead, but I know he’s not; a mother’s intuition, I can feel that he’s still alive. As long as there is a glimmer of hope, I will never give up looking for him."

Bai Yueru said this and reversed her grip, clutching Ye Shu’s hand, "Xiao Shu, actually Shaochen isn’t as strong as you think he is; he needs a soul mate, and I hope that person is you."

"..." Ye Shu’s expression trembled slightly, as she fully realized that Bai Yueru really considered her family to talk about such personal secrets.

But she truly didn’t know if she would ever have the chance to be Sheng Shaochen’s soul mate, after all... there was another ’Han Ruixin’ in his life.
