The entire July saw the Shangjing business and socialite circles discreetly starting to talk about a name: Mrs. Song.
She was simply too noticeable to ignore.
In China, universities enter summer vacation in July and August, and Shen Chaoxi finished her courses and stayed at home.
Mid-July, after a satisfying downpour the night before, the air the following day was fresh and cool.
Nearing noon, Shen Chaoxi took the naughty Xiaoshang to visit Lianzhong.
At just over ten months old, the little guy could already sit independently in the car's child safety seat in the back, and he had a pleasant "conversation" with the driver and his mother the whole way.
This type of one-sided conversation delighted Xiaoshang, but it was torture for Mrs. Shang.
Because while driving, she couldn't always see her child's expressions, and while her words might be understood by the child, Shen Chaoxi racked her brain but couldn't make heads or tails of his babbling alien language.
