Ditsy Wife: Mysterious Husband is Unfathomable

Accompany Her

With that said, Mrs. Sheng handed the check to Gong Mo.

Gong Mo shook her head. “Nanxuan and I aren’t married yet, so I can’t accept this on behalf of him. You should give it to him personally.”

Mrs. Sheng looked at her. Upon observing that she was serious, Mrs. Sheng could only take her check back.

After a while, Mrs. Sheng suddenly leaned close to her and whispered, “Actually… I suspect that someone must have set you up that night! But Nanxuan’s dad was so angry that I couldn’t get through to him no matter what. It’d be great if there was some evidence. Nanxuan can come home then. Do you still remember what happened that night? Did anything weird happen?”

Gong Mo felt put on the spot. This matter concerned Nanxuan. Should she tell her? Or should she tell Sheng Nanxuan about it first? Alright, she would do that!

Mrs. Sheng was not only Sheng Nanxuan’s mother, but also Sheng Donglin’s. Both of them were her sons and if she found out that the person who tried to harm Sheng Nanxuan was Sheng Donglin, she might not support Sheng Nanxuan anymore. She decided not to tell the truth. However, she could still mention some obvious things and also stuff she had said to Sheng Donglin before.

Gong Mo bit her lip and said in a low voice, “There was something in my champagne and my head got all weird. If not, I wouldn’t have groggily…”

She bit her lip. She wished she could rush up to Su Mo and Sheng Donglin and beat them up.

She set down her teacup and took a deep breath. “I don’t remember anything else and even if I did, I don’t want to investigate it anymore! You wouldn’t believe whatever I say anyway.”

“I will!”

“Really?” Gong Mo looked at her faintly. “Would you believe me if I said Donglin pointed me to Nanxuan’s room? Donglin wouldn’t admit to it though, so I don’t know if it was a memory lapse on my part. My apologies, I’ll be leaving now. I don’t want to talk about the incident anymore!”

Gong Mo left the tea shop.

Mrs. Sheng’s eyes narrowed as she leaned back against the sofa.

A moment later, Sheng Donglin rose from the seat behind her and walked to his mother’s side.

She looked up. “So?”

Sheng Donglin shook her head. “It seems like she didn’t overhear my conversation with Su Mo.”

Mrs. Sheng’s eyes narrowed. “That might not be the case. A woman’s thoughts are ever-changing. However, Nanxuan has nothing to his name right now and will be burdened by a child soon, so he won’t be able to do anything. By the time he makes something of himself, you’ll already be standing at the top, so you don’t have to worry at all.”

Sheng Donglin thought this made sense and nodded.

Mrs. Sheng advised, “You should behave confidently when you’re out to achieve success. Don’t become overcautious and watch every step because of some trivial matter!”

“Understood.” Sheng Donglin nodded, receiving the instruction.

...

Gong Mo saw that Sheng Nanxuan was at home when she returned and that he was helping Mama Gong make dinner.

Upon seeing her come home, a puzzled Mama Gong asked, “Where have you been? I thought you went on a date with Nanxuan, but here you are alone.”

“I went to see a classmate,” said Gong Mo. My class monitor is getting engaged tomorrow and we’re going to attend. She doesn’t have any appropriate clothes, so I accompanied her to buy some.”

“I see…” Mama Gong continued to mix her eggs. Suddenly, she looked up. “Is it a wedding?”

“No, it’s not a wedding. It’s an engagement party, although I still have to give him a red packet.”

“Tsk, tsk… young people nowadays want an engagement party on top of their wedding. That just means collecting red packets twice!”

Gong Mo smiled but said nothing.

Sheng Nanxuan asked, “Are you going alone?”

“Ah?”

“How can she go alone?” said Mama Gong. “Her classmates will definitely pressure her to drink. She can’t drink alcohol right now, so accompany her.”

“Sure.” Sheng Nanxuan smiled.
