She couldn’t just say:

“I heard that your mother is crazy, so I secretly went to the sanatorium to check on her.”

She was the crazy one!

Before she could think of how to say it, Xie Yunzhou brought her to the jewelry store in the mall.

With the shop assistant beside them, Shi Xi could not speak up. She could only try on the shiny necklace and bracelet.

“Let’s find a place to have coffee, shall we?” Shi Xi suggested after they were done shopping.

Find a quiet place to chat.

When they arrived at the coffee shop, Shi Xi looked at the bitter coffee in front of her and took a deep breath. “This morning, I went to a sanatorium in the suburbs.”

As she spoke, Shi Xi stared at Xie Yunzhou’s expression to see if he would react.

“Why do you want to go to the sanatorium?” Xie Yunzhou’s expression did not change, but there was a hint of doubt in his eyes.

“I heard some things about Auntie and thought that she was living in a sanatorium, so I wanted to visit her.” Shi Xi finally confessed and heaved a sigh of relief. “I’m sorry. 1 didn’t mean to pry into your privacy.”

“I know you want to see your future mother-in-law, that’s why you’re so proactive.” Xie Yunzhou’s eyes were smiling as he teased Shi Xi.

Shi Xi’s guilt was greatly reduced in an instant. She glared at him with her beautiful eyes. “Flow could I?! I’m just curious and want to take a look!”

“Who asked you to never tell me about your family? You know my family like the back of your hand.”

At the end of her sentence, Shi Xi started to feel unbalanced.

Whether it was the Hua family or the Shi family, Xie Yunzhou knew them very well.

Xie Yunzhou even knew about her own circle of friends, including her assistant and manager!

Even her chauffeur was sent over by Xie Yunzhou!

However, Shi Xi was not familiar with Xie Yunzhou’s circle of friends and family.

Just thinking about it made her feel a little unbalanced!

She was even angrier!

Xie Yunzhou watched as Shi Xi’s guilt at the beginning slowly turned into imbalance and finally some resentment.

The change of emotions in her beautiful big eyes was so fast that it made people sigh in admiration.

“Why are you angry? Because I didn’t tell you about my mother?” Xie Yunzhou found it funny and pushed the ice cream to Shi Xi. “Have some dessert first to calm down.”

Shi Xi scooped a large spoonful of ice cream before suppressing her anger.

She was a little angry.

“I didn’t mean to hide my mother’s condition. I thought you didn’t want to hear it.”

“It’s alright, as long as you don’t keep mentioning it. Why?” Shi Xi asked curiously. “Did anyone say that you were a mama’s boy before?”

Xie Yunzhou:”…”

“No, I’m just not used to talking to people.” Xie Yunzhou’s voice was gentle. “My parents are divorced. I lived with the Xie family when I was young. After they divorced, I followed my mother.”

“Later, she had her own career, and I was busy with my studies and starting a business, so 1 rarely talked to her.”

“Were you living alone?” Shi Xi asked.

“My mother is a workaholic, so I’ve been living on campus.”

“After 1 started working, I lived alone. I would only occasionally stay with her during festivals.”

Shi Xi consoled him. “People who are busy with their careers are all like this. Don’t take it to heart. I’ll spend the holidays with you in the future.”

“You want to see your future mother-in-law? I can bring you to see her,” Xie Yunzhou said.

“What? This, for the time being, it’s better not to! Since she’s so busy, I, I’m not ready either. Let’s wait a little longer..” Shi Xi started to dodge incoherently and asked again, “By the way, what does Auntie do?”
