Chapter 582: 371 Huo Ye: Entering the Hall? Do I Have to Take Off My Clothes? (4 more Chapters)

Shen Shuci rarely took the initiative to invite people over, but after the events of yesterday, she felt their relationship had grown closer.

She no longer felt as unfamiliar with him as before, having helped her numerous times, she found him very reliable and her guard was down.

Combined with the sympathy and pity she felt for him, and although his manner was often brief and cold, at the end of the day, he was just a regular person. There was no need to be overly defensive every time she encountered him.

The people of the Huo Family were extremely agitated, but he managed to keep his composure, lowering his voice to ask,

"Is it convenient?"

"There’s nothing inconvenient." Shen Shuci was not a messy person, her house was quite tidy, and there was nothing embarrassing to hide.

Thinking about it, she owed him quite a bit, at least a couple of meals, having eaten at his place a few times and troubling him to drive her to and from work every day without even offering him a cup of tea. Shen Shuci thought about it and felt her actions were not quite appropriate.

"Hey, big brothers, would you like to come up for a glass of water too?" Shen Shuci was referring to the two in the driver and passenger seats, who had become familiar over the many days.

"We better not."

"Yeah, we’ll stay in the car, it’s comfortable here."

"You guys go ahead."

They weren’t stupid, daring to follow up might lead to more than just some skin off when they got back.

After dropping off for so long, the two of them had made some progress, and only after watching the two enter the building did the people inside the car finally take a long sigh of relief:

It was damn hard!

The apartment Shen Shuci rented was not large, allowing one to see all the furnishings clearly at a glance, simple and clean. The floor mop at the entrance, pink in color, seemed somewhat mismatched with her.

"By the way, men’s slippers, I only have one pair prepared for Mr. Jiang here, will you wear these?"

Jiang Jinsang had his own slippers here?

Shen Shuci’s apartment, only Tang Wan and Jiang Jinsang visited frequently, having prepared for Tang Wan, it made sense to have a pair for Jiang Jinsang too.

He glanced at the slippers, "I’m not comfortable wearing others’ things."

"No need to take off your shoes then, just come in like this." Shen Shuci had already entered, starting to boil water to make him tea.

Upon exiting, she saw him looking at a photograph on the table.

"This was taken at Tang Family’s home during Wanwan’s engagement, those behind me are my parents." The photograph also included Elder Tang and others, clearly showing their affection, with Tang Wan already engaged to Jiang Jinsang, he also appeared in the group picture.

"What tea would you like? I only have some black tea and broken silver that Wanwan previously gifted, and some coffee here."
