Because Cao Yuzhu suddenly returned, the three Shen brothers were delayed for a while, but they quickly found a reason to leave.
Cao Yuzhu's good mood came because of her three grandsons, and was taken away because of the departure of her three grandsons.
Seeing the three people leaving in a hurry, Cao Yuzhu immediately lowered her lips on the sofa. She asked Sun's mother suspiciously, "It's so late, what are my grandchildren going to do?"
Shen Cunyi also looked out the window and saw Shen Jie's black car driving away.
Sun Ma also asked the three young masters before, but none of the three young masters said anything.
She thought about it and suddenly had an idea, "I know, Miss Qingxi hasn't come back from school yet. The three young masters must be worried, so they went out together to pick up Miss Qingxi!"
Her explanation made sense. Shen Cunyi said nothing, but Cao Yuzhu's expression did soften a little.
At first, Cao Yuzhu felt that the granddaughter her son had brought back from outside was a loss to her appearance. However, after getting in touch with her, Shen Qingxi was well-educated, kind, gentle, honest, and reserved... Slowly, Cao Yuzhu began to appreciate her. Changed.
Moreover, Cao Yuzhu is a person who eats fast and chants Buddha's name. She claims to be compassionate and has sympathy for Shen Qingxi's miserable life experience of being homeless since she was a child. What is even more commendable is that Shen Qingxi, a little girl who grew up in a difficult life, He doesn't have any of the bad habits of the residents of Xiaojing. He emerges from the mud without being stained, and washes through the clear ripples without being evil.
On the contrary, it was that dead girl Shen Wanwan...
"Son," Cao Yuzhu looked at Shen Cunyi and asked arrogantly, "Qingxi hasn't come back from school yet, what about Wanwan? Is she back?!"
Shen Cunyi thought about the words that the future husband-in-law said today, and his tone was not as powerful as before, "Wanwan is living on campus now, and she doesn't go home to live on weekdays..."
"What?!" Cao Yuzhu glared with dissatisfaction, "As the eldest lady of the Shen family, she doesn't want to stay at home and insists on living with others in a dirty place like a dormitory. I think she is really crazy. !”
Shen Cunyi sighed, "Forget it, Mom, she could do things like push Qingxi down the stairs before, but she still can't tolerate this sister in her heart, so it's better not to stay at home..."
Cao Yuzhu looked at her son and saw him sighing. She suddenly asked with some distress, "What's wrong with you? Why are you so haggard?"
It seems that this family really can't survive without her!
Shen Cunyi shook his head and remained silent.
Too many things happened today, and he hasn't sorted them out yet.
Especially when Shen Ye took Chang Lao's paintings away from his study at night... Shen Cunyi guessed that his three sons were not going to pick up Qingxi!
Cao Yuzhu said, "Son, if you have any troubles, tell mom. Is there a problem with your connections? Among the children, mom is the most partial to you. Now that mom is back, everything will be fine!"
Shen Cunyi looked at his mother, unable to tell the truth, so he followed his mother's words and said, "Connections are the foundation of a family's stability. The Shen family has always been grateful to you in this regard. During the year you went to Putuo Mountain, There are basically no changes in the major families in Beijing, except for a few newly wealthy and famous people, and I am also trying to win over them."
Cao Yuzhu's eyes burned, "Who are they? Son, please tell me in detail."
"For example..." Following what happened today, Shen Cunyi's first thought was of course...
"Mr. Chang Hejun, the master of traditional Chinese painting who was personally recommended by Mr. Jiang."
Hearing the name again, Cao Yuzhu's hands shook and the tea cup fell directly on the carpet.
"Old lady! Are you okay? Be sure not to burn you!" Sun's mother hurried over to clean up.
Shen Cunyi also frowned worriedly, "What's wrong, Mom? Are you too tired from the car ride today?"
His mother came from a well-known family and received the best etiquette education since she was a child. She was calm and elegant.
I have never seen his mother lose her temper like she just did.
"It's okay," Cao Yuzhu cleared her throat, calmed down her expression, and pretended that nothing happened.
"That Mr. Chang, is he really a popular man in Beijing today?"
Shen Cunyi nodded, "There are countless families who want to get close to him in the name of asking for paintings."
Cao Yuzhu was silent again.
What Shen Cunyi said is true.
Although Chang Lao does not come from a famous family, he can be appreciated by Mr. Jiang with his paintings, and he is indeed very popular now.
And his paintings were sold at sky-high prices.
He himself sneered at these. In fact, he was a breath of fresh air in the celebrity world, a scholar and scholar worth making friends with.
Seeing Cao Yuzhu's heavy expression, Shen Cunyi said happily, "Mom, you don't have to worry, our Qingxi is now Chang Lao's closed disciple. This honor is something that no other family's young masters have."
As soon as Cao Yuzhu heard this, she felt much better.
"Qingxi is really promising!"
She was worrying about something, but she didn't expect that her granddaughter had already made progress.
She was not disappointed to be able to become the disciple of that aloof and great painter!
"Actually, it's not just Qingxi, but also..." Shen Cunyi's voice paused mid-sentence.
Cao Yuzhu looked at him, waiting for him to continue.
Shen Cunyi's expression was cryptic, "It's nothing, Mom, you just returned to Beijing today, you should rest early!"
＊＊
Chang Hejun's car stopped at an intersection some distance from the school, which was Shen Wanwan's polite request.
But even so, several returning boarding students noticed the car.
"Wow, it's Hello Kitty! It's so cute!"
"This is my dream car!"
"The driver must be cute too!"
Shen Wanwan stayed in the car for ten more minutes, making sure that no one was paying attention around him. Then she said goodbye to Chang Hejun, got out of the car quickly, and strode to school.
At this time, the campus has quieted down. Students in twos and threes are walking on the campus paths, laughing and talking about the English speech in the afternoon. The lights of the dormitory buildings in the distance turn on one by one.
Because Chang Hejun's car was parked in a remote place, Shen Wanwan entered the school through a door she would not normally use, and saw some scenery that was different from before...
At the same time, under the student union building.
Shen Qingxi didn't want to go home too early today. As soon as she cleared her mind, Shen Wanwan was still shining brightly on the stage, and Qin Langchuan was staring at her intently...
So when she knew that after the speech event, the student union still had a lot of finishing work to do, she offered to come and help.
Although he sacrificed his rest time at night, he was unanimously admired by the junior students in the student union.
Shen Qingxi felt a little comforted.
After packing her things and going downstairs, Shen Qingxi saw such a tall figure under the street lamp.
Even a school uniform can't hide his outstanding and steady temperament compared to boys of the same age.
Qin Langchuan just sent her a WeChat message, saying that he was coming to pick her up. The junior students in the student union were very envious when they heard about it. There was actually some unfinished work at the moment, but everyone joked that they didn't dare to let the school maid wait. It took too long, so she was urged to come out early.
Normally, Shen Qingxi would feel particularly happy at this time.
But today, this feeling of happiness was tainted with a layer of haze, and this haze was Shen Wanwan!
From the time Shen Qingxi established her relationship with Qin Langchuan to their engagement, their relationship with each other has always been respectful and polite. Shen Qingxi knew that Qin Langchuan cherished her and was not in a hurry before.
But today, watching Qin Langchuan stare at Shen Wanwan on the stage, an emotion that had never happened before was quietly sprouting from Shen Qingxi's chest.
Her mother once said that to deal with creatures like men, you must learn to seize opportunities at the right time!
"Langchuan, have you waited for me for a long time?" Shen Qingxi put her hands behind her back and spoke in a delicate and gentle tone.
"Fortunately, it won't be long." Seeing Shen Qingxi come out, Qin Langchuan put away his phone. The light of the screen flashed in front of Shen Qingxi's eyes. Qin Langchuan quickly locked the screen. Shen Qingxi didn't see clearly what he was looking at. What? He pretended not to care and continued, "By the way, I heard that you went to my house to wait for me today? I'm so sorry. The junior students in the student union asked me to help, and I was too embarrassed to refuse..."
Qin Langchuan nodded hesitantly, "It's getting late, I'll take you home."
"Langchuan."
Qin Langchuan's sleeve was suddenly pulled by a cautious force, and Shen Qingxi pulled him gently, "Can you walk with me on campus? I want to stay for a while before going back..."
What Qin Langchuan likes most about Shen Qingxi is that she is like a little bird.
It's impossible to refuse.
He pursed his lips and said, "Okay."
Shen Qingxi smiled sweetly.
She thought of the place in the school forum that was regarded as a sacred place for spreading love by students. She heard that it was an excellent place to enhance the relationship between two people... and some people's first kiss also happened there.
As Shen Qingxi thought about it, a blush gradually appeared on her cheeks.
"Xiaoxi..."
"Creek?"
Qin Langchuan stopped and gently called Shen Qingxi, who was in a daze.
Shen Qingxi suddenly came back to her senses. Her mind was filled with rumors about the Holy Land of Love, so much so that he didn't even hear Qin Langchuan talking to her.
"Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere? You feel a little strange today." After Qin Langchuan finished speaking, he touched Shen Qingxi's head considerately, "It's indeed a little hot. Do you want to go to the school doctor's office?"
Shen Qingxi nodded first, then immediately shook her head, "I have nothing to do, just go for a walk with me."
Qin Langchuan looked at the time and said, "Let's go, I'll accompany you."
The spacious road was filled with students who were rushing back to their dormitories. Shen Qingxi said, "There are too many people here. I want to find a quieter place where we can chat."
Qin Langchuan also followed her.
The two of them walked to the side of the teaching building. Shen Qingxi pointed to the edge of the woods and said, "Let's go for a walk there. It seems to be very quiet there."
At the same time, Shen Wanwan, who had strolled around the campus, was about to take a small road back to the dormitory.
When passing by the side of the teaching building, I saw a pair of sneaky campus lovers entering the woods.
"..." Shen Wanwan narrowed her eyes slightly.
Spring is almost over, but I didn’t expect that cats would still be making spring.
If she wasn't in a hurry to get back to the dormitory, she wouldn't normally take this shortcut, which was a bit embarrassing just thinking about it.
Shen Wanwan was about to take a few steps away quickly, but the sound that reached her ears made Sister Wan suddenly become interested...
"Langchuan, I am really happy to be with you."
Shen Wanwan looked over.
Through the gaps in the not-so-luxurious woods, two figures were very close to each other.
Shen Wanwan raised his eyebrows slightly.
Who she thought she was, turned out to be her most "knowledgeable and courteous" good sister.
Opposite Shen Qingxi, Qin Langchuan was half leaning against the tree, still wearing his gold-rimmed glasses, one hand in his pocket, and the other hand holding Shen Qingxi's hand, "Me too."
"Langchuan, have you... ever held my sister's hand like this before?" After Shen Qingxi finished speaking, she lowered her head shyly.
"Maybe, I can't remember clearly." After Qin Langchuan finished speaking, he glanced to the side guiltily.
It doesn't matter, I just happened to see Shen Wanwan not far away...
Shen Wanwan did not avoid Qin Langchuan's gaze. She was standing in the public area of the school.
There is no rule saying that students cannot stand here.
Shen Qingxi slowly raised her head, and suddenly her body swayed and fell right into Qin Langchuan's arms.
Shen Wanwan saw this fall clearly. If Shen Qingxi didn't do it on purpose, it was because her legs were disabled.
"I'm sorry Langchuan..." After saying that, Shen Qingxi stood up straight.
However, at this moment, Qin Langchuan, who rarely took the initiative, suddenly hugged Shen Qingxi, as if he was afraid that she would fall again. Qin Langchuan turned his eyes in the direction of Shen Wanwan, "It doesn't matter, you can Don’t worry, lean on me.”
Shen Qingxi wrapped her arms around Qin Langchuan's waist and pressed her hot cheek tightly against Qin Liangchuan's chest. Shen Qingxi's heart felt like a drum beating as the aura of the opposite sex spread across his face.
Especially when she thought that the man she was holding now was once Shen Wanwan's fiancé, the feeling of happiness became even stronger.
Qin Langchuan faced Shen Qingxi who was fully devoted, but his eyes still drifted to Shen Wanwan behind her.
He wanted to see Shen Wanwan's reaction, but when Shen Wanwan saw the scene in front of him, he just twitched the corner of his mouth.
I thought there could be something more exciting, but this is the result?
Shen Wanwan watched without interest and walked out.
After walking a few steps, Bai Mianyu came towards him carrying a small schoolbag.
Bai Mianyu was somewhat short-sighted and could not see clearly in the dark. She stood at the intersection, stretched her slender neck, and studied Shen Wanwan's figure for half a minute before running over with a look of surprise on her face.
"Sister Wan! I just said it looks like you. I was looking for you!" Bai Mianyu followed the direction Shen Wanwan came from and noticed the small woods.
Oh haha—
Isn't this a love mecca that's been very popular on school forums?
Bai Mianyu's little Bagua eyes lit up, and she peered into the woods, "What are Sister Wan looking at?"
Shen Wanwan pressed his little head with one hand and pushed her head back.
Shen Wanwan clicked her tongue and said, "A pair of wild mandarin ducks, not suitable for young children."
Bai Mianyu became even more interested when he heard this, "Where is it? I want to see it too, does it look good?"
Shen Wanwan thought for a while and replied with three words in a leisurely manner, "It's eye-catching."
Qin Langchuan also heard Shen Wanwan's answer, and his heart suddenly tightened.
Shen Wanwan used to care about him and admire him so much, carefully protecting their relationship, trying her best to please him and accommodate him. If he was even a little bit unhappy, she would feel uncomfortable all day long, but now he doesn't. Even if she hugged someone else, she could remain indifferent?
He doesn't believe it...
If you don’t believe it, Shen Wanwan doesn’t have any trouble in her heart!
Shen Qingxi was immersed in her own world and did not suspect anything. After feeling Qin Langchuan's breath getting faster, she tightened her hand around Qin Langchuan's waist...
Shen Wanwan patted Bai Mianyu's little head, and the two of them walked outside.
In the past, in order to make Qin Langchuan happy, Shen Wanwan would rather save money and give him the best gift. In every moment when he could barely shine, she tried to show her admiration and praised him without conscience...
All she got in exchange was that she was not as charming as Shen Qingxi.
In fact, Shen Wanwan was also surprised by her own reaction. She could not imagine Qin Langchuan falling in love with someone else before, but now even though she saw it with her own eyes, she only had those three words in her heart.
Eye-catching...
If she had time to be annoyed by them, she might as well go back to the dormitory early and call someone so that she could complete today's KPI.
Shen Wanwan looked at Bai Mianyu beside him, "You said you wanted to come to me just now. Did you have something else?"
"Ah!" Bai Mianyu almost forgot the most important thing! "The old guard said that someone was looking for you at the door and said he was bringing you a painting!"
"So," Shen Wanwan asked casually, "does anyone know who is coming?"
She sent the WeChat message casually, so she was a little curious as to which brother would come in the end.
"The old guard didn't say anything," Bai Mianyu shook her confused little head, and she continued, "But there seem to be three people in total!"
