"I don't know. Haven't figured it out yet."
Shen Jianyi replied casually. She took out a pen and paper from her schoolbag and continued to draw the unfinished wedding dress design.
Qin Yue had known her for several years and already understood Shen Jianyi's meaning. If she didn't say yes immediately, it meant rejection.
"Yiyi."
Qin Yue sat down and looked at the girl across from her with pity in her beautiful eyes.
Most girls of her age were still clinging to their parents, leading happy lives.
But she had become much more mature than her peers and knew even more.
"Tsk, don't look at me with that kind of look."
Shen Jianyi scolded with a smile. She picked up the notebook in her hand and showed it to Qin Yue. "Is it nice?"
On the plain white A4 paper, a rough outline was sketched with simple lines. At first glance, it could be recognized as a wedding dress.
It was a common mermaid - style wedding dress, but there were unique designs on the chest and back. It was not trite at all, but rather romantic and novel.
"Nice. The wedding dresses designed by our Yiyi are the best."
Qin Yue didn't stint on her praise.
Shen Jianyi nodded, then buried her head to modify some details. After confirming that everything was okay, she sent it to Lisa and then returned to the Lu family mansion.
Early the next morning.
The yellowish morning light filtered in through the gaps in the unclosed floor - to - ceiling curtains. The little girl in the bed twitched her eyelids, groaned, and turned over impatiently.
"Yiyi, get up."
It was the weekend, and Lu Jinsheng didn't go to the company, but he was still dressed formally.
The white shirt and gray suit pants made his figure look tall and straight. He sat on the edge of the bed and picked up the little girl who was still lying in bed.
"I'm taking you to meet someone."
Meet someone again? Could it be another young master from some family?
"I'm not going."
Shen Jianyi shook her head and tried to get back under the quilt. Her long hair was in a mess.
Lu Jinsheng pushed the long hair that was covering her eyes away and coaxed her gently, "You have to go this time. It's not easy for her to be in a better state of mind."
She had to go?
Only then did Shen Jianyi slowly open her eyes and sized up Lu Jinsheng from top to bottom.
"Lu Jinsheng, could it be your ex - girlfriend?"
"Nonsense."
He gently slapped Shen Jianyi on the forehead. He grabbed her slender wrist and pulled her up from the bed.
"My grandma. She lives in a nursing home. I've wanted to take you to visit her for a long time, but her mental state has never been good. The nurse called me this morning and said she's in a good state today."
Shen Jianyi was still half - asleep. Her eyes were blank, looking a bit cute and dazed.
Lu Jinsheng kissed her on the forehead. "Yiyi, she's a very important person to me."
"…Alright."
Shen Jianyi resigned herself.
She obediently got out of bed and went to the bathroom to brush her teeth and wash her face. The servants had already prepared clothes, matching bags, and shoes.
Like a doll, she was served to change her clothes.
In front of the floor - to - ceiling mirror, she was wearing a knee - length white dress. Her black hair, instead of being tied up in a high ponytail as usual, was all let down. The black hair was as smooth as satin, draping behind her. Her skin was fair and seemed to be gilded with a layer of light.
She looked very likable.
When Lu Jinsheng saw Shen Jianyi walking out of the dressing room, he was stunned for a moment, then smiled and took her hand, interlacing their fingers.
An hour later, the black Maybach arrived at the high - end nursing home in the suburbs and drove further in.
Shen Jianyi observed the scenery here through the car window.
Surrounded by green mountains, the villa - style nursing home was located in the mountains. The wind was cool, without a trace of the summer heat.
Inside the nursing home, there was also an artificially dug lake, and all the living facilities were complete.
So rich.
Shen Jianyi pursed her lips. "Lu Jinsheng, I'll come and live here after you die."
Lu Jinsheng: "…"
The driver in the front seat couldn't help but burst out laughing.
His face immediately darkened. He pinched the soft flesh on her waist as punishment. "You're so eager for me to die?"
This heartless little woman.
"…"
Shen Jianyi was confused by his anger.
Death wasn't something scary to her. She even found it exciting.
If she was afraid of death, she would have died many times over a decade ago.
Lu Jinsheng saw that she didn't respond and kept looking at her out of the corner of his eye.
What on earth had happened to her that made her not afraid of death at all?
Each lost in their own thoughts, they didn't snap out of it until they reached the old lady's ward.
"Yiyi, grandma's mental state is a bit unstable."
Lu Jinsheng reminded her.
Shen Jianyi nodded. "I know."
When the door opened, she put on an innocent smile and followed Lu Jinsheng into the ward.
The old lady was very old, almost eighty. Her hair was gray, and since she had been bedridden for years and didn't get much sun, her skin was very white. There were also many age spots on her face.
When she saw Lu Jinsheng come in, the old lady grinned with few teeth and laughed heartily. "My dear grandson is here. Come and sit by grandma."
The nurse quickly brought a chair and then quietly stepped back.
Lu Jinsheng sat down. Just as he was about to introduce Shen Jianyi, the old lady had already seen the little girl behind him and smiled even more happily.
"Enjin is back too. Don't quarrel with Ziqian in the future."
The words of greeting got stuck in Shen Jianyi's throat. She looked at Lu Jinsheng in confusion.
The smile on Lu Jinsheng's face froze for a moment, and his gentle eyes dimmed a bit.
He leaned over slightly and whispered in Shen Jianyi's ear, "That's my mother's name. She's mistaken you for someone else."
The old lady didn't realize she had made a mistake at all. She took Shen Jianyi's hand and started rambling. "Ziqian is a bit hot - tempered. You've been wronged all these years. But Jinsheng is a very good boy. He's had a hard time all these years when you weren't at home."
Shen Jianyi didn't pull her hand back. While listening to the old lady talking to herself, her eyes fell on Lu Jinsheng.
Lu Jinsheng didn't want her to look at him like that.
"Grandma." He raised his voice a bit. "You've mistaken her. She's Yiyi, your granddaughter - in - law."
"Granddaughter - in - law?"
The old lady was obviously a bit surprised. She fumbled to pick up the reading glasses on the bedside cabinet and put them on. Only then did she see the person clearly.
She was as delicate as a porcelain doll and very young. How could she be her daughter - in - law?
"It was really grandma who made a mistake."
The old lady smiled sheepishly. She didn't let go of Shen Jianyi's hand. "Your name is Yiyi? I heard from Jinsheng's father that you two are already married. Marriage is good. Have a great - grandson for grandma to hold soon."
Shen Jianyi pursed her lips and smiled, showing two shallow dimples. "Okay, grandma."
With her delicate and cute appearance, the old lady liked her very much. She pulled Shen Jianyi to talk for a while. It was not until the nurse came to remind the old lady that it was time to take medicine that they left the nursing home. Before leaving, the old lady gave her a black box.
