Chapter 1117: A Face

Shen Yanming nodded: "There will always be a chance, just wait quietly!"

Zhang Heping had a smile on his face and was rubbing his hands together, extremely excited.

Ji Kangyong and others were able to hold on tight.

"Yanming, do you mean that we also have a chance to regain our youth?"

"Rejuvenation is probably not an option, but improving physical fitness and extending lifespan should be no problem."

"Really? Really? It's good to live a few more years!"

Zhang Heping paced back and forth excitedly, without doubting the truth of Shen Yanming's words.

Li Wanwan looked at him and smiled with pursed lips. The fine lines on her face made her look more attractive.

Ji Kangyong and Qin Yiren looked at each other and held hands tightly. It was a great opportunity to have such a chance. They could accompany each other for a few more years.

Xiao Pi Dan and Xiao Dou Sha are in their prime and don’t have much idea about the length of their lifespan.

But since my parents are so excited, it must be a good thing. Not bad, not bad, the two of them laughed.

"Okay, just keep it to yourself, and don't tell anyone else. When the time comes, you'll know what's going on."

The six people in front of him nodded in unison, and the expectation in their eyes was self-evident.

Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan sat for a while and then left to find Zeng Yiming and Ding Xunye.

It had been a while since they last saw these two people. The couple chatted with Zeng Yiming, Ding Xunye, and Zeng's father and mother for a while, invited them to dinner in the evening, and then prepared to leave.

"By the way, Xiao Ye, call your parents as well." Even though they weren't very familiar with each other, it was the same whether you invited two people or a bunch of people. There was no shortage of supplies at home anyway, so just invite them all.

Ding Xunye nodded gratefully, and when she asked her parents and uncle and aunt, they were very happy but declined.

"My girl, Xiao Shen has taken good care of us. We can't cause trouble for him. You, Xiao Zeng, and Bao should go."

Ding Xunye smiled, nodded and said, "Okay!" Five people is not a small number.

Zeng Yiming's son, Zeng Junfeng, had also met Shen Yanming several times.

It's just that they don't meet often and their relationship isn't that close. He was quite excited when he heard that he could go to the Shen family for dinner.

Zeng Yiming touched Zeng Junfeng's head and said, "Baby, when you become capable in the future, you must repay your Uncle Chen and Aunt Qiao An. If our family hadn't had their help, I'm afraid we would have failed long ago."

Zeng Junfeng is already in his teens, but he still remembers the hungry days when he was a child.

At that time, there was always an uncle who secretly brought them food. He still remembered that others were skin and bones, but he could still eat half full.

Occasionally, you can also eat chocolate and beef jerky.

Zeng Junfeng nodded: "Dad, I know."

The couple went to find Song Wenwan. When Song Wenwan saw Bi Qiaoan, she cried and hugged her. She was just like Zhang Heping.

"Silly girl, where have you been? You haven't come back for more than half a year. I thought I would never see you again in this life."

Bi Qiaoan: “…” It feels quite awkward to be called a dead girl at my age.

"Sister Wen Nuan, I just went to the Imperial Capital for a stroll. I had enough fun, so I'm back now. What's the matter? Do you miss me so much that you're crying?"

Song Wenwan was so annoyed by Bi Qiaoan's annoying tone that she wanted to hit her. But facing this pretty smiling face, she couldn't bring herself to do it.

He reached out and pinched it: "It's smooth and tender, and feels really good. Standing next to you, I feel like we're generations apart."

Bi Qiaoan pulled her hand down, rolled her eyes and said, "It's not that exaggerated."

Niuniu came over and said with a smile: "Aunt Qiao An, you look really young, like a girl in her twenties."

She didn't dare say her mother was old, so she could only praise Bi Qiaoan for her youth.

Bi Qiaoan smiled and rubbed Niuniu's hair: "Our Niuniu is also beautiful, so fresh and tender!"

After saying that, he took out a bunch of food from the storage ring and gave it to Xiao Pidan, Xiao Dousha, and Zeng Junfeng.

"Gift, put it away quickly!"

Niuniu nodded: "Thank you Aunt Qiao An."

Wei Jiahe's eyes were full of envy.

Because he remembered the troubles he had in his childhood, he had never been close to the Shen family. It was not because he didn't want to, but because he felt guilty. He couldn't get over that hurdle.

Niuniu stuffed something into Wei Jiahe's hands and said, "Brother, take whatever you like."

Wei Jiahe pinched her little face and said, "Sister, keep it. I'm grown up now and don't like snacks."

Niuniu pouted and picked out the ones she liked and stuffed them into his arms. Song Wenwan's eyes were full of love.

He whispered to Bi Qiaoan, "This child is good, but he has a lot on his mind."

Bi Qiaoan nodded and took out the same gift for Wei Jiahe. Shen Yanming also took him aside and whispered to comfort him.

When he came back, Wei Jiahe's smile became brighter, as if the shackles that had been weighing on his shoulders for many years were finally removed.

Wei Liang sincerely thanked the two and asked with a smile about their experiences in the Imperial Capital.

The couple only said, "Let's talk about it together when we have dinner at my house tonight." This saved them from having to repeat it over and over again, which would make their mouths dry.

"Okay, I'll make sure to be there on time."

"Okay then, we'll leave first."

Afterwards, he called Liang Huaxin, Ye Wengui, Li Gangtie, and some familiar guards.

Everyone was very happy and agreed to do it after asking about the time.

When the couple returned home, it was already late.

After estimating the number of people who might come in the evening, I felt that there might be too many, so I prepared some vegetables, meat, eggs and fruits.

Shen Yanming also lit two more stoves, so that they could cook in three pots at the same time, so that no one would be left without food.

Everything was ready. Officer Wen took the lead and brought Jiang Shulian over. He was smiling happily, smelling the aroma of the hot pot base and giving a thumbs up.

Then came Ming Jiakang, Su Sibin, and Ye Wengui. They were not polite and came over to praise Old Shen.

Zhang Heping and Ji Kangyong came with their families and were stunned for a moment when they saw a bunch of leaders, but they soon got used to it.

The Shen family’s display is quite normal.

The rest of the people came over one after another, and after a brief moment of awkwardness, they started laughing and mingling with everyone.

Shen Yanming invited them to start eating, and took the initiative to put vegetables, prawns and mutton slices into the pot.

Soon, the vegetables were cooked. Shen Yanming picked up some vegetables for Bi Qiaoan and said with a smile, "Cook the mutton for a little longer. My skills are limited, so I cut it thicker."

Wen Mengguan smiled and said, "Yanming is very considerate! What's the problem with thicker meat? We can eat more when it's cooked."

Shen Yanming nodded: "Eat, enough for tonight!"

"Yeah, Old Shen is so generous!"

"Yanming, did you get this in the Imperial Capital? Isn't life in the Imperial Capital much better than in Haishi?"

"Yes, Xiao Shen, tell us about the changes in Dijing!"

Shen Yanming put the vegetables into the pot and said, "Come on, eat quickly, let's talk while we eat."

After that, he talked about the things in Dijing: "The food in Dijing is similar to that in Haishi. The living standard in Haishi can be said to be the second best in the country."
