Chengdu, a city full of "charm".
It is also a warm and happy haven for a family of four.
On New Year's Eve, Da Mei's family sat around the steaming dinner table, enjoying the atmosphere of reunion and sharing the joy of the past year.
The elderly couple, sitting at the head of the table, looked at their eldest daughter, whose figure had become noticeably plumper and fuller, and their faces unconsciously beamed with happy smiles. However, deep in their eyes, a complex and imperceptible expression occasionally flashed.
In truth, they were all aware of the unspoken issues surrounding their eldest daughter, but out of love for her and not wanting to embarrass her, they pretended not to know and never mentioned why she never brought a boyfriend home.
My eldest daughter resigned from her job at the airline at the end of last year and went to Shenzhen.
He then started his own business in Shenzhen and became wealthy.
Hmm... Only novels would dare to write something like this.
Of course, Yao's father knew very well what his eldest daughter was worth; all she had was a pretty face, and she was just a pretty but clueless fool.
With that level of skill, let alone starting a business, he'd be afraid of being sold off just for going to work, and then having to count the money for others.
If he hadn't asked his old classmate for help, Da Mei, with her vocational high school diploma, would never have been able to get into an airline.
However, when Yao's parents saw their eldest daughter now, with a rosy complexion and graceful figure, they were relieved to know that she had not suffered any injustice.
Of course, the eldest daughter said her boyfriend was only three years older than her, so the elderly couple turned a blind eye and acquiesced.
At the very least, they shouldn't be in their seventies or eighties; they should be older than me.
In fact, Yao's parents' worries were completely unnecessary. Da Mei is already ahead of 96% of her peers in the country in terms of eating well, drinking well, wearing designer clothes, living in a luxury house, and driving a luxury car.
She didn't care at all about how others saw her. It was her experience working at the airline that made Da Mei realize that society is no longer like it used to be, where being even slightly promiscuous would get you thrown into a pig cage. Laughing at poverty but not at prostitution is now the norm.
With her earning several million a month with ease, isn't that more satisfying than marrying into a wealthy family?
What Yao's father didn't know was that his youngest daughter, Yao Lili, was also starting to get restless.
No wonder, her older sister, who was always worse than her since childhood, has now risen to such a high position and is living such a happy life. Anyone would be confused by that.
She now wants to get her generous brother-in-law's contact information so she can climb the social ladder through her own efforts.
Because she was younger and prettier than her sister, she was confident...
Young Yao Lili may be small in stature, but she has quite a lot of ambition.
At the dinner table, each family member had their own thoughts, but laughter and cheerful conversation filled the air.
Yao Lili, in particular, pretended to be well-behaved and sensible, clinging tightly to Yao Meimei as before, constantly acting coquettishly, hoping to visit her sister in Pengcheng more often in the future.
After all, only by getting close to his sister would he have the chance to wield the hoe, right?
Seeing the harmonious family, Yao's parents happily drank a few more glasses of wine.
Just then, Da Mei's phone screen suddenly lit up.
Yao Lili, who had been keeping an eye on her sister, immediately noticed it was a WeChat message notification. She glanced at her sister's phone casually.
As she expected, after seeing it, her older sister Da Mei's face immediately turned rosy at a visible speed.
The string of words made her a little... wondering if it was because her dad's cooking was too greasy.
Yao Lili is now getting goosebumps all over her body.
I quickly took out my notebook and wrote it down in my mind: So my brother-in-law likes this kind of thing.
She knows the answer to this question!
Da Mei quickly wiped her mouth, said "I'm full," and got up and ran back to her room like a deer.
With a loud bang, the room door was slammed shut.
Yao Lili, who had originally planned to follow quietly, almost had a close encounter with the door.
She stared resentfully at the closed door, muttering to herself, "My pretty face almost turned into a round pancake."
On the other side, Da Mei threw herself onto the soft bed, pressed her phone tightly against her chest, and felt her heart pounding wildly.
Her face was filled with happiness and sweetness. She didn't ask for much to begin with, and now Zhang Long had basically met all her material needs.
After calming her excited emotions, Da Mei slowly opened her phone, ready to happily immerse herself in the sweet words her boyfriend had sent.
However, as she looked at it, she suddenly felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it.
"Wait a minute, Brother Long isn't the type to say things like that. Could this person be...?"
Various possibilities flashed through Da Mei's mind, "Who could get his phone..."
Thinking of this, her hands and feet instantly turned ice-cold, and her face turned ashen.
In an instant, my already small brain almost broke down; the CPU was severely overloaded, causing smoke to rise from my head.
A series of books, such as "3000 Ways for a Concubine to Fight the Empress" and "Secrets of Palace Intrigue and Domestic Strife," came to mind.
However, she can only dream about it. The real Da Mei just wants to be an ostrich and bury her head in the sand.
She stared intently at her phone screen, her mind in turmoil. She didn't even have the courage to ask who the other person was, and she kept deleting the words she typed.
Meanwhile, Hu Xinxin, the little fox on the other end of the phone, was laughing so hard she almost choked on her cigarette.
After the other person dawdled for five or six minutes before finally asking, "Who are you?"
Hu Xinxin found it extremely amusing and deliberately replied, "I'm Zhang Long, have you forgotten who I am?"
He wanted to continue teasing the naive Da Mei, but Da Mei immediately replied, "Brother Long would never say such a thing."
Seeing that she had been found out, Hu Xinxin kept laughing.
After thinking for a moment, she decided not to push this silly girl too hard. If she went too far and made her turn evil, it wouldn't be fun.
So, Hu Xinxin picked up her phone and tried to add Da Mei on WeChat, but was directly rejected.
She then sent another message using Zhang Long's account: "Please accept my WeChat request."
At this moment, Da Mei's mind went blank, and her fingers trembled uncontrollably.
After much hesitation, she accepted the friend request.
As for what exactly they talked about after adding each other on WeChat, only the two of them know.
In short, Da Mei slept exceptionally well that night; perhaps this truly was the best New Year's gift she received.
