Chapter 686: 187: Breaking News! _1
Lady Zhao never complained.
Even if she did have any complaints, she dared not to voice them.
After eating a few doughnuts, Shangguan Furong spoke again: “Also, the porridge today doesn’t seem as thick as yesterday’s, mom, did you wake up late this morning?”
Upon hearing this, Lady Zhao, who was holding a doughnut, immediately stopped.
Last night, she had spent almost the entire night in the Buddha Hall, indeed waking up a bit later than usual this morning.
Could it be…
Had Shangguan Furong noticed something?
A chill ran down Lady Zhao’s spine. She raised her head to glance at Shangguan Furong before saying, “Sure, I’ll pay more attention tomorrow morning.”
Shangguan Furong nodded contentedly, “Hm, and I want to eat crystal pan-fried dumplings for breakfast tomorrow.”
It seemed Shangguan Furong hadn’t noticed anything, thus Lady Zhao let out a sigh of relief.
After finishing breakfast, Shangguan Furong took out a tissue, elegantly wiped her mouth, “By the way, where’s Zhao Shen?”
Lady Zhao flinched but quickly tried to regain her composure, “He… He had something to do and went out.”
“Oh.” Shangguan Furong nodded, paying it no further thought, “I’m going over to my mom’s.”
Today was Ni Cuihua’s first day at the Shangguan’s. Naturally, she had to go and check on her.
Otherwise, what standing would she have in the Shangguan household in the future?
Ni Cuihua was a new daughter-in-law, and as such, she should serve her a cup of tea.
She missed the opportunity last night, but this morning, she would definitely put Ni Cuihua in her place!
“Sure.” Lady Zhao stood up and escorted Shangguan Furong to the door.
Seeing Shangguan Furong’s disappearing figure, a layer of fine sweat formed on Lady Zhao’s forehead.
Just as Shangguan Furong left, Zhao Shen drove in.
A ray of light flashed in Lady Zhao’s eyes, and she went up to meet him at once, “Shenbao.”
“Mom.” Zhao Shen got out of the car.
Zhao Shen glanced at Lady Zhao, “Mom, I…”
Lady Zhao waved her hand, “Don’t say anything, I understand. Have you had breakfast yet?”
Zhao Shen shook his head.
Lady Zhao replied: “Come in and have a meal then, the soup is still hot.”
