CH 50

After Shen Tiantian finished showering and came out, she picked up her phone and saw that there were suddenly three friend requests in her contacts.

She was a bit puzzled since very few people knew her WeChat ID, and those who did know had already been added by her. She had taken less than half an hour to shower, so how come there were suddenly people adding her?!

With all the messages constantly coming in from Liu Wanjun and Kang Jiaya, her phone was almost vibrating non-stop.

Shan Yi was still lying on the bed and saw her looking strange. She put down her phone and walked over, asking, “What’s wrong?!”

Shen Tiantian looked at her and said: “I suddenly received a few friend requests on WeChat.”

Shan Yi smiled, “You don’t have to pay attention to them.”

Shen Tiantian became even more curious and clicked to check.

Nickname: Sister-in-law, I am Shan Xu.

Nickname: Shan Yue.

Nickname: I am Mom, baby, please accept me.

Shen Tiantian: ……..

What’s going on?!

Shen Tiantian looked incredulously at Shan Yi, “What did you do to my phone? Is it infected with something?”

Shan Yi burst into laughter at her teasing, “I don’t know your password, how could I do anything?”

“But…” Shen Tiantian shifted her gaze back to the phone, “How did they know my WeChat ID?”

Shan Yi shrugged, confessing, “I added you to the family group.”

Shen Tiantian: …….

So, should she accept or not?!

If she accepts, she doesn’t know what to say, and if she declines, it’s not good either. After all, she is now with Shan Yi, and they will inevitably meet in the future.

“Don’t mind them.” 

Shen Tiantian pursed her lips, moved her fingers, and quickly accepted all three friend requests.

“Alright, it’s getting late, you should go take a shower,” Shen Tiantian pushed her and climbed onto the bed with her phone.

She didn’t wash her hair today, so Shan Yi didn’t need to blow-dry it for her. She took out a set of silk pajamas from the closet.

There were two sets of pajamas in the clothes that Shan Xu sent over yesterday. Mother Shan knew that they were living together, so she prepared them for Shen Tiantian. Although Mother Shan would prefer them to move back home, Shan Yi said she didn’t want to put Shen Tiantian in a difficult position, so they dropped the idea. But occasionally on WeChat, she would still mention it, urging Shan Yi to bring Shen Tiantian back home.

“You accepted?” Shan Yi asked.

“I did…” Shen Tiantian said helplessly. After saying that, she returned to the chat page and realized that the messages weren’t sent by Liu Wanjun and Kang Jiaya, but from a group called “Shan Family.”

Before going into the bathroom, Shan Yi had jokingly said: “It’s okay, you don’t have to care about them.”

When did she join this group?!

Shen Tiantian could only think of one possibility: it must have been Shan Yi who added her.

No wonder Shan Xu and the others suddenly added her.

There weren’t many people in the group, and with her, there were only six people.

Among them, she already had four, and the remaining one was Father Shan.

As the head of the family who sat on the throne, Father Shan was more “reserved” and had not added her as a friend. Everyone in the group was mentioning her, but Father Shan remained silent.

Shen Tiantian was both surprised and happy, feeling a bit overwhelmed for a moment, and she didn’t even notice her fingertips were trembling slightly.

She slowly scrolled up and carefully read through the chat history.

Shan Yi had created the group during the time when she went to take a shower, without any introduction. However, the group immediately became lively.

Shan Xu: Sister-in-law?!

Mother Shan: What?

Mother Shan: @Shen Tiantian, my good daughter, you finally joined.

Shan Xu: @Shen Tiantian, sister-in-law, I added you, please accept me.

Mother Shan: I want to add too~

Shan Yue: Welcome to the Shan Pigpen.

Shan Xu: … The only pig here is you.

Mother Shan: Pah! beat it.

Shen Tiantian laughed so hard that she couldn’t close her mouth while reading through the messages. She didn’t expect Shan Yi’s family members to be such… characters.

Shan Yi’s personality might have taken after her father. Throughout the chat, neither she nor Father Shan exchanged a single word. They were having their own fun in the group.

Perhaps because she hadn’t responded for a long time, they didn’t mention her again after she accepted the friend requests. Only after accepting, Shan Xu immediately sent a message.

Shan Xu: Sister-in-law~

Along with a “kissing” emoji.

Shen Tiantian fell silent for a moment, thinking about what she should reply. But before she could send anything, Shan Xu sent another message.

Shan Xu: Sister-in-law, no need to be nervous, our family is very laid-back.

Shen Tiantian didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, thinking that indeed they were quite laid-back.

Shen Tiantian: Alright.

Shan Xu: My sister is like that. She didn’t even tell you when she added you. Last time, she forgot to ask for your WeChat too.

Shen Tiantian smiled at the screen: Your sister is just like that. Don’t blame her.

Shan Xu: Sister-in-law, you’re defending her so quickly? Don’t spoil her, or you’ll have to bear the consequences in the future.

Shen Tiantian: …

Shan Xu: My mom asked if you saw her message. She wants to chat with you.

Shen Tiantian quickly returned to the main page and indeed saw a message from an account with the name “Mother Shan.”

Her heart skipped a beat, nervously clicking on the chat page.

Mother Shan: Baby~

What are you up to?

Why aren’t you replying to my messages?

I’m so sad, sob sob sob.

Shen Tiantian felt a shiver down her spine; even Shan Yi had never called her that way. But considering the person on the other side was her lover’s mother, she was too nervous to figure out how to reply.

After hesitating for a while, she finally responded: Hello, Auntie. I just finished showering, and I’m sorry for taking so long to reply.

Shen Tiantian didn’t dare to send separate messages; she was afraid that Mother Shan might only read the beginning and continue sending those cheesy words.

Mother Shan seemed to be waiting for her response and replied almost instantly, even teasing her for the way she addressed her, telling her she should call her “mom.”

Shen Tiantian didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, so she sent an emoji to ease the atmosphere.

Shan Yi had already finished showering and came out while Shen Tiantian was still chatting. Her lips were stretched all the way to her ears, wondering who she was talking to and feeling more certain about her intention in adding people to the group.

She always felt that the group was too noisy and left it twice, but after being “educated” by her mother, she didn’t dare to leave again. Being bombarded on WeChat was still better than being bombarded by her mother, so she ended up blocking the group.

Shan Yi dried her hair and put Shen Tiantian’s phone aside, saying, “Continue chatting tomorrow.”

“I’m talking to Mother Shan, I should let her know I’ll be sleeping soon,” Shen Tiantian replied, mindful of etiquette.

Shan Yi acknowledged with a sound and quickly typed a message to Mother Shan before turning her attention back to Shen Tiantian’s phone.

Shen Tiantian looked at her suspiciously, “What did you send?!”

“I told her you’re going to sleep and asked her to rest early too.”

Shen Tiantian: …Oh no! What impression of me does she have now?!

“You sent it like that, Auntie will definitely hate me,” Shen Tiantian lamented.

Shan Yi chuckled, repeating her previous message in voice mode. After that, she no longer paid attention to what Mother Shan sent, turning off Shen Tiantian’s phone.

“Alright, let’s go to sleep,” she said.

Shen Tiantian let out a sigh of relief and scolded her playfully.

She hadn’t even met Mother Shan yet, but the relationship was already strained because of Shan Yi.

How could Mother Shan not know her daughter’s personality? After hearing her words, she originally intended to scold her, but thinking about Shen Tiantian being pregnant, she realized it would be better for her to rest early, or she would feel uncomfortable the next day. So she reluctantly put her phone down.

‘I’ll talk to her tomorrow.’

Shan Yi dried her still damp hair and headed towards the exit, afraid of disturbing Shen Tiantian, so she closed the door behind her.

Shen Tiantian got down from the bed with a smile, “I’ll help you.”

“My hair is too long, it will take a long time,” Single Yi refused: “You go to sleep, I can handle it myself.”

Shen Tiantian pouted, thinking to herself, ‘It’s because your hair is too long that I wanted to help you.’ But she didn’t say it out loud and insisted on taking the hairdryer from her.

Shan Yi smiled and didn’t refuse, enjoying the special treatment. Her hair had grown to waist-length, long and thick. When it was wet, it required some effort to dry, and the hairdryer was a bit weak, taking more than half an hour to completely dry it.

Shen Tiantian muttered in her heart that her hands were sore.

Shan Yi took the hairdryer and placed it on the low table in front of the sofa, then hugged Shen Tiantian’s waist and led her back to the room.

It was already past eleven o’clock, and Shan Yi placed both of their phones on the bedside table, saying, “Now we really should sleep.”

“Understood, CEO,” Shen Tiantian sweetly replied.

Shan Yi narrowed her eyes dangerously, restraining the urge to kiss her fiercely. She hugged Shen Tiantian’s waist, kissed her forehead, and bid her goodnight.

In Shan Yi’s embrace, Shen Tiantian squirmed and couldn’t fall asleep. She softly called out, “CEO.”

Shan Yi responded with a sound, “What’s wrong?”

“Can you tell me about Auntie? What kind of person is she?” Shen Tiantian asked.

Without lifting her eyelids, Shan Yi replied with her eyes closed, “I’ll tell you tomorrow.”

Unhappy, Shen Tiantian pouted, yawned, and didn’t press further. Before long, she fell asleep.

The next morning, Shen Tiantian was finally free from morning sickness and slept quite “gloriously”. She couldn’t even wake up even after the alarm rang for a long time. Seeing her sleeping so soundly, Shan Yi allowed her to continue sleeping while she checked the news on her phone in the living room.

Since the company was her own, there was no rush.

When Shen Tiantian groggily sat up on the bed, it was almost ten o’clock.

“Ah—”

Shen Tiantian screamed, wearing cotton slippers as she ran out of the room. Seeing Shan Yi still there, she rushed into the bathroom in a panic, scolding: “Why didn’t you wake me up?!”

Shan Yi chuckled, ignored her words, and walked into the kitchen to heat up breakfast.

Shen Tiantian was on the verge of tears. She was already late on her second day of work. Assistant Yang was probably going to be furious.

Perhaps she ran too fast, the morning sickness came suddenly and urgently. She bent over and vomited, causing her stomach to ache.

Shan Yi heard the sound and came out, patting her back with a concerned look, trying to make her feel better.

After finally stopping the vomiting, Shen Tiantian hurriedly freshened up, so anxious that she even ignored Shan Yi. She rushed back to the room and quickly changed into some clothes.

The jeans she used to wear were a bit loose, but when she pulled them up to her butt, they suddenly got stuck.

Shen Tiantian froze.

Pregnant, and even the buttocks were getting bigger?!

She forcefully pulled them up and fastened the button. Then, grabbing her bag and phone, she sprinted out like she was in a 100-meter race. However, before she could pass through the living room, Shan Yi stopped her.

Shan Yi helplessly said: “Why are you running so fast? What if you hurt the baby?”

Shen Tiantian reminded her, “It’s almost eleven o’clock, I need to go to work.”

“It’s fine. Even if you don’t go to work, your salary will still be paid.”

Shen Tiantian: …

Is it really okay to abuse your power like this?!

“It’s already past ten. You can rest at home today, and tomorrow is Saturday, right? We’ll go see the dean,” Shan Yi said matter-of-factly.

“I’m not sure….” Shen Tiantian was a bit hesitant.

Shan Yi retorted: “What’s not sure about it?”

Shen Tiantian was a bit conflicted and said: “Then I should ask for a day off from Assistant Yang.”

“I just told her that you won’t be going today,” Shan Yi replied.

Shen Tiantian sighed at her speed, “Okay then, I’m a bit hungry.”
