Dominant Marriage: The CEO's Overbearing Love-Chapter 21 Not Quite on the Way

Entering the room, Gu Qimiao looked around; it seemed like a girl’s room.

He walked to the wardrobe, casually grabbed a set of clothes, and handed them to her: "These are my sister’s clothes. You two have similar builds, so they should fit."

"Your sister’s? Wouldn’t that be inconvenient?" The wealthy young ladies she remembered were all arrogant and spoiled. Would casually wearing her clothes cause trouble? freeweɓnøvel.com

"It’s more convenient to have clothes than none at all. I’ll wait for you outside." With that, he turned and left, closing the door behind him.

The clothes were quite similar to her own, a pullover sweater and slim-fit jeans.

She changed clothes and went downstairs to continue eating.

Shen Yanchen noticed her discomfort and didn’t force her to get comfortable with the place on the first visit. After all, their relationship was awkward. So, after eating, Shen Yanchen said, "Grandma, I have work at the company, so I’ll head out first. Take care of yourself."

"Why not stay the night? It’s snowing outside! Leave tomorrow morning after the snow stops."

Shen Yanchen was already at the door. He handed Gu Qimiao her clothes first, then put on his overcoat: "The snow will be heavier tomorrow morning. I’ll visit you another day. Don’t go out too often in the cold weather."

At this moment, Ding Jing also came over and said, "Grandma, I’m heading back now too. My mom just called."

"Alright, come play with Grandma when you have time. I’ll make you something delicious."

"Sure, Grandma’s cooking is my favorite. I overate today." Ding Jing’s sweet talk endeared her to the elder.

Gu Qimiao stood by and watched. Why couldn’t she express herself so naturally?

"Ah Chen." After coaxing the old lady, Ding Jing called out to Shen Yanchen, "I didn’t drive; can you give me a lift?"

Shen Yanchen took Gu Qimiao’s scarf and hat, holding them in his hand, and politely declined: "It’s not on my way."

"Even if it’s not on your way, take Jingjing home first! It’s not safe for a girl alone at night; she needs to be dropped off at her door!"

Shen Yanchen showed no expression, silently agreeing. However, as they left, he only led Gu Qimiao toward the door. At the windy spot, he wrapped the scarf around her neck.

The old lady, unwilling to part, followed to the door, and advised, "Chen, drive carefully."

"Hmm."

Gu Qimiao still turned to say goodbye: "Goodbye, Grandma."

The old lady looked at her with some disdain, besides a pleasing appearance, she was also young and short. What if the future children inherit her traits?

"Grandma, I’ll come visit you another day."

This time it was Ding Jing bidding farewell. The old lady immediately brightened up and replied, "Great! Come over with your grandma next time."

Shen Yanchen drove the car over. Ding Jing, in high heels, walked briskly forward, opened the front passenger door, and got in: "Ah Chen, do you know my address?"

Shen Yanchen glanced at Gu Qimiao, who was coming toward the back seat, and said to Ding Jing, "She gets car sick, she needs to sit in the front."

Gu Qimiao, who had been opening the car door, paused and saw Ding Jing smile awkwardly before getting out. It was only then that Gu Qimiao realized the "she" referred to herself.

But she wasn’t car sick...

Ding Jing had already gotten out of the car, smiled at her with a hint of challenge, though her voice was gentle: "Ah Chen said you get car sick. You take the front seat."

She didn’t understand Shen Yanchen’s intention, perhaps he disliked interacting with strange women and was using her as a shield. Regardless, she would unconditionally cooperate.

"...Thank you." She thanked and moved to the front passenger seat.
