The wooden beauty of Young Master Sheng(47)

 Chapter 47: Call Me Mr. Sheng from Now On

Jiang Chenchen quickly walked over to the door, holding her phone, eager to see him. Although they were under the same roof these days, she could only catch a glimpse of him when he returned to his room at night.

He seemed very busy, and it felt like she could never catch sight of him.

She was busy with her studies as well, so they always seemed to miss each other. Therefore, she could only wait for him by the door like a child longing for a family member to come home when he returned to his room at night.

Sheng Mingsi, upon seeing her, coldly averted his gaze, ignoring her as usual. However, this time, he quickly looked back at her, furrowing his brows. "Where did you get the phone?"

"This?" Jiang Chenchen lifted her phone. "I bought it."

Xia Changli also gave her a cute snowman-patterned phone case.

Sheng Mingsi didn't continue questioning. Perhaps it was the private tutor, who was relatively close to her, that bought it for her.

"Focus on your studies and don't get distracted by your phone."

"I am focused on my studies."

Jiang Chenchen directly placed the phone screen in front of him. "I'm studying this."

Sheng Mingsi had initially intended to go back to his room. However, when he saw the words on the phone screen, his serious and cold expression froze for a moment. He couldn't determine whether she deliberately showed it to him or if she genuinely didn't know, eagerly seeking knowledge...

If it was the former, he would directly turn his face and kick her out.

But...

Seeing her eyes blank and innocent, did she truly not understand? However, considering she had been confined in the hospital, closed off from the world, it was indeed possible that she didn't comprehend such information. She must genuinely not understand.

But why suddenly talk about studying this...

Soon, he raised his brows, his voice low and stern. "Who told you to study this?"

Jiang Chenchen, puzzled by his seriousness, said, "I don't understand. I wanted to see what it was."

She wanted to turn the phone around to see the knowledge she had searched for.

Seeing this, Sheng Mingsi quickly took the phone from her hand, lowered his head, and decisively deleted the search term.

"Listen, focus on your studies."

He returned the phone to her, his tone rigid, and averted his gaze. "You will understand in the future."

Jiang Chenchen didn't understand why she couldn't know now but would know in the future.

Recalling what Gu Mingmei had said before, she repeated, "Is your first kiss still there?"

With such a straightforward gaze and words, Sheng Mingsi's face turned dark. His pitch-black eyes became even more profound, staring firmly at her. His expression was too dark and mysterious.

A dangerous aura.

Jiang Chenchen instinctively took a step back.

However, she felt that he shouldn't be a dangerous person. So, she gently called him.

"As...?"

Sheng Mingsi's eyes condensed, and his body paused. She had never called him that way before. No one else could call him by his name like that. Hearing it from her mouth felt a bit softening.

He restrained all his emotions, the deep black eyes glinting.

But the tone he used was low and stern, "Call me Mr. Sheng from now on."

"Mr. Sheng..."

As he approached, his tall and slender figure enveloped her. The dark eyes stared intently at her.

Jiang Chenchen took two steps back.

What was going on with this suffocating atmosphere?

She retreated into the room, not understanding why. Wasn't that question inappropriate? At this moment, she felt like a lost rabbit, forced into a cage.

Then she watched as Sheng Mingsi grabbed the doorknob and quickly closed the door.

The tall figure disappeared from her sight.

Jiang Chenchen: ?
