Chapter 70: Chapter 70 Second Uncle, We Have a Generation Gap

When Shi Nuan returned, only Song Yansheng was left in the living room.

Song Yansheng said that Yu Yao was feeling unwell and had gone upstairs for a nap. Shi Nuan furrowed her brows but didn’t say much.

She only asked him, "When are we leaving?"

Song Yansheng raised an eyebrow, "It’s one in the afternoon now, do you want to visit Xiao Chuan at this time?"

Shi Nuan pursed her lips, not responding.

Song Yansheng walked over, the man’s tall and upright figure came into Shi Nuan’s view, handsome and extraordinary, as gentle as jade. Shi Nuan slightly lowered her eyes, avoiding looking at him, feeling that she was being beguiled.

The man observed her slightly shy expression, fully confident in his own charm.

He approached and gently grasped her hand, the lines of their palms fitting together, his heartbeat slightly quickened, but Shi Nuan only felt it was a normal physiological reaction.

After all, Song Yansheng was a man, and a mature, charming man at that.

"The old lady usually naps for about an hour or so. We’ll leave once she wakes up. Since we have nothing to do now, let me take you for a walk in the courtyard!"

Shi Nuan was about to say something, but Song Yansheng had already started walking, pulling her along out the door, so Shi Nuan suppressed her temper.

The Song Family Mansion was different from the Song Mansion, its decor was more antique and elegant, very much fitting the style of a luxurious family estate, with extremely beautiful scenery.

It was just a bit too cold and quiet.

Song Yansheng said that ever since his Father fell into a coma, only his mother Yu Yao remained here at the Song Family Mansion, living alone for fifteen years.

Her basic daily life involved taking walks, gardening, practicing Buddhism, rarely concerning herself with worldly affairs.

There was a Buddhist chapel in the backyard of the Song Family Mansion, where tablets for some of the deceased elders of the Song family were kept.

When Song Yansheng went to offer incense to the elders, Shi Nuan did not go in, feeling her identity was inappropriate.

From being a nephew’s fiancée to suddenly transforming into an uncle’s fiancée, such a change was something even she couldn’t accept.

Song Yansheng did not insist, only leading her through the courtyard for a leisurely walk. Occasionally, they engaged in light conversation. Song Yansheng was not a talkative person, but he did speak a lot to Shi Nuan.

Shi Nuan could tell that Song Yansheng was trying to please her.

Shi Nuan felt it wasn’t necessary, she wasn’t the person in his heart, and their marriage was not based on love. What she wanted was simply to coexist peacefully with him, that would be enough.

Perhaps Shi Nuan’s long-lasting indifference made Song Yansheng somewhat dissatisfied. He said, "Nuannuan, you and I are about to become husband and wife. Although I don’t expect you to open your heart to me so soon, I hope that at least at times like this, you can have a fair communication with me, even if you just regard me as your friend!"

Shi Nuan bit her lip, saying, "Second Uncle, I really don’t know what to say, maybe there’s a... generation gap between us!"

A generation gap? This made Song Yansheng frown.

Indeed, he was already twenty-nine this year, and Shi Nuan was only twenty-one, an eight-year age difference was a gap that was hard to cross for them.

She was so young, and he was already past the age of being impulsive and reckless.

But he never truly cared about the age difference. Instead, he felt the things accumulated over the years helped him cherish her more and know how to protect her.

Approaching thirty, a man’s golden age, he wasn’t old. If there was blame, it could only be that fate was not on their side.

No words could make up for the eight years of life that had been cut apart.

——

On Shi Nuan’s side, not hearing the man’s response made her a little anxious, wondering if she said something wrong just now?

"Second Uncle, I’m sorry, I didn’t mean..."

"It’s alright..."

Song Yansheng stopped, his deep, dark eyes gazing at her, his eyes full of gentle tenderness.

Shi Nuan’s eyes flickered, momentarily forgetting to move her gaze away.

The two silently stared at each other.

Song Yansheng said, "The generation gap isn’t something to be afraid of. I’m eight years older than you, that’s an objective fact that can’t be changed, but I’m willing to use a young heart to approach you, as long as you’re willing to open your heart to me!"

Shi Nuan was a bit stunned, "Second Uncle, I... I’m a bit confused!"

He had someone he truly loved in his heart, and if it was because she resembled that person, how much did she resemble them?

To allow him to be so tolerant?

Shi Nuan really didn’t understand!

Song Yansheng smiled slightly, his hands gently massaging her slender and round shoulders, saying, "You don’t need to understand. Now, close your eyes!"

"..." Shi Nuan was taken aback, close her eyes?

Before she could react, she suddenly felt a warmth on her lips...

Shi Nuan was startled, but immediately reacted.

The unfamiliar sensation sent her mind into a tizzy, she had no idea how to deal with it.

Unable to push him away, resistance seemed futile.

What to do?

Her heart trembled, she suddenly reached out both hands to wrap around the man’s neck.

Her initiative made Song Yansheng slightly stunned, and Shi Nuan took advantage of that moment to lift her right leg...

This was a tactic Shi Nuan learned from watching TV. She didn’t know the consequences of doing this, but it proved useful when encountering a rogue...

Sure enough, the man let out a low hiss, his face instantly pale, indicating that Shi Nuan’s strike wasn’t light.

He let go of her, bending over, one hand blocking that awkward area, and after a moment looked up at Shi Nuan.

He said, "Girl, if you break it, are you planning to live as a widow for the rest of your life?"

Shi Nuan’s face was flushed red, her lips still tingling, as her clear eyes glared at him, saying, "Who... told you to act so unruly! Serves you right!"

Song Yansheng really was hurt by the hit, but fortunately, it seemed she had controlled her strength, intending only to warn him to let go, not to cause lasting harm... This girl, she truly had a fiery temper!
