Chapter 1599:Mother Shen’s Thoughts
After Yang Ming’s last visit, her daughter was really happy for some time. Mother Shen witnessed it with her own eyes and naturally hoped that Yang Ming could come around a second time.
“Mr. Yang, thank you for visiting my Yuxi in the midst of your busy schedule…” Mother Shen welcomed Yang Ming enthusiastically. But, it made Yang Ming feel a little awkward.
“Auntie, don’t say that. Shen Yuxi is one of our company’s employees. Of course, I will come to visit her!” said Yang Ming with a smile.
Shen Yuxi was lying on the bed reading a book quietly. When she heard the sound of the doorbell and her mother talking, Shen Yuxi initially did not pay attention and thought it was a neighbor.
Recently, her mother was bored while accompanying her at home alone. Some of the neighbors who were free would often come to chat with her mother.
This did not bother Shen Yuxi. She had told her mother many times that she was not depressed. But her mother did not listen and insisted on accompanying her. Shen Yuxi stopped talking about it. Maybe after a while, her mother would be at ease.
Shen Yuxi’s mood was also calm now. Although she could not walk, she had learned a bit about business management. Bao Sanli, President Bao, said that she could go back to work so that she would not need to stay at home every day.
Shen Yuxi did not hear the conversation in the living room. However, she heard footsteps approaching the door of her room. Then, she heard the sound of her door being pushed open.
Shen Yuxi did not care. She continued reading her book and did not look up, “Mom, who’s here? Why did they leave so soon?”
“Mr. Yang is here, Little Xi,” said Mother Shen. “Take a look at yourself. You are not even dressed properly. Isn’t that inappropriate?”
Shen Yuxi was lying on the bed. So, she was not fully dressed. It was already summer. Shen Yuxi was just wearing a small vest and night pants. She was not even wearing a bra underneath her vest. The content inside was looming, which made Yang Ming’s blood boil…
It was undeniable that Shen Yuxi was very beautiful. Otherwise, Liu Zhaojun and others would not go so wild. It was such a pity… that Shen Yuxi could not stand up anymore and could only live in a wheelchair. It made Yang Ming sad.
Yang Ming turned his head away awkwardly to avoid looking at Shen Yuxi. He said a little awkwardly, “I’ll go out first, Aunty. I’ll come in after Shen Yuxi gets dressed.”
“You don’t have to go out. There is no need to be embarrassed,” Mother Shen quickly said. “Yuxi, just cover yourself with the blankets!”
If it was in the past or if it was not Yang Ming who came in, Mother Shen would not be so unconcerned that her daughter wore so little. But, it was different now. The doctors at the hospital had already told Mother Shen that it was impossible for Shen Yuxi to stand up again!
She had no more sensation under her waist. The problem did not come from the bones. The bones could slowly recover. The main problem was her nerves! Nerve injuries were the most difficult to cure.
Her daughter liked Yang Ming, and Mother Shen naturally could see it. At the moment, Mother Shen did not expect Yang Ming to like Shen Yuxi back. Would any normal person with a family background like Yang Ming like a girl lying in bed every day?
She only hoped that Yang Ming could spend more time with her daughter. Even if it was all just a lie, it was fine as long as her daughter was happy. So, she let Yang Ming come in even though her daughter was not properly dressed. In fact, Mother Shen also had the intention to entice Yang Ming. It would be best if Yang Ming fell for her daughter. Even if her daughter could not get up from the bed, she was still one of the most beautiful girls.
If ambiguous feelings develop between the two of them, then no matter whether Yang Ming was sincere or not, or just impulsive, her daughter would be happy. This was what Mother Shen wanted to see.
When she saw Yang Ming staring at her daughter’s chest just now, Mother Shen felt that her plan was working. However, in the blink of an eye, Yang Ming’s gaze moved away, and he wanted to go out. This made Mother Shen slightly disappointed.
Of course, she could not show her disappointment. Instead, she let her daughter cover up with the quilt.
Shen Yuxi was a bit embarrassed and shyly pulled the blanket up to cover herself, “Yang Ming…”
“Ha, you guys talk. I’ll go to make tea…” Mother Shen knew that she needed to create an opportunity for her daughter. She turned around and left the room, leaving Yang Ming and Shen Yuxi alone.
Shen Yuxi waited for her mother to leave, then smiled apologetically at Yang Ming, “I’m sorry about my mother. She is a little overenthusiastic.”
“It’s okay…hehe.” Yang Ming handed the bag to Shen Yuxi. “Here are some books on business management. I brought them for you. Take a look at them when you are free.”
“Thank you…” Shen Yuxi happily took the bag of books that Yang Ming handed over to her.
“No need for thanks,” said Yang Ming. “Study hard. I have already arranged a special position for you for when you return to the company. Aunty will be your permanent secretary with the same salary.”
“This…” Shen Yuxi did not expect Yang Ming to be so good to her. Not only did he keep aside a job for her, but he even arranged a job for her mother. She was a little moved, “President Yang… Thank you…Thank you…”
“Just call me Yang Ming. What is this President Yang?” Yang Ming sweated a bit. “If you keep calling me this way in the future, I will not come to visit you.”
“En, then I’ll call you Yang Ming.” Shen Yuxi nodded happily. The closer she got to Yang Ming, the happier she was.
“Do you have sensation in your legs?” asked Yang Ming.
Shen Yuxi gave a dull expression and shook her head, “Not yet. But I don’t want it anymore. It’s already great to be alive.”
“I will leave for a while in a few days. But when I come back, I will help you find a solution.” Yang Ming sighed. Shen Yuxi should not continue life this way. Wouldn’t her entire life be held up if she continued like this?
Yang Ming’s kindness towards Shen Yuxi was out of sympathy for her. Despite him denying them, rumors about her being his lover had spread like wildfire in the Nightless Club before and caused the tragedy to happen. It would be ruthless if Yang Ming continued to deny it. Those who did not know the situation might think that Yang Ming abandoned Shen Yuxi when she could no longer stand. So, Yang Ming simply had to stick with her to the end.
“En…thank you…” Although Shen Yuxi had no hope for this, she nodded happily. At least, Yang Ming would still manage her affairs.
“No need for thanks,” Yang Ming waved his hand, not knowing if he should tell Shen Yuxi about his trip to Yunnan. But after thinking about it, he decided not to. Shen Yuxi now regarded Yang Ming as a pillar of support. Although she did not say it, Yang Ming could feel it. If Yang Ming went to Yunnan and did not return, how could Shen Yuxi still have the confidence and hope to live on?
This was not what Yang Ming wanted to happen. So, Yang Ming decided to give Shen Yuxi some hope and told her to anticipate his return.
