Shen Fangli took Yan Xianjue's arm and walked towards the rest area, saying casually: "It seems that Zhou Ye has not changed much since high school."
Yan Xianjue gave her a strange look: "We just graduated from high school a few days ago, why do you have to look at him with such new eyes?"
Shen Fangli touched her chin: "It feels like a long time has passed. Is it because it's too full?"
Look at her life after graduation, it's even busier than when she was in school.
"Besides, a man should be looked at with new eyes after three days of absence. Moreover, he has become the heir, so I think it is normal for him to have changed a lot, isn't it?"
Yan Xianjue met her gaze and was surprised to find that Shen Fangli was not joking.
Yan Xianjue fell silent.
"Well, is there a possibility that Zhou Ye will become the heir because he has no competitors at all?"
"The Zhou family has even fewer members than mine. It's good enough to have someone willing to inherit. For families like the Lin and Ji families, who are so desperate to get their heads chopped off, don't even think about it. It's simply impossible."
He pressed Shen Fangli onto the sofa and quickly changed the subject: "What would you like to drink?"
Shen Fangli: "Whatever, I'm fine with it."
Then she watched Yan Xianjue take out a box of milk from the refrigerator in a familiar and natural manner.
Shen Fangli looked around. If they didn't want to drink champagne, they could at least have ginger ale to make up the number. If not, it would be orange juice. She took a glass of milk... Isn't this bad?
Is it a bit too casual?
She expressed her views to Yan Xianjue in a tactful way.
Yan Xianjue was surprised and asked, "Didn't you say you were hungry?"
He handed the milk to the waiter next to him: "Heat two cups and add sugar."
When Yan Xianjue sat back down next to Shen Fangli, he reached out and rubbed her stomach: "It's flat."
The corner of Shen Fangli’s mouth twitched, and she took his hand away: “That’s to look good in a dress, what do you know.”
Yan Xianjue lazily leaned on the sofa: "I know it's uncomfortable to be hungry."
But he also knew that arguing with Shen Fangli about this was meaningless, so he simply returned to the previous topic: “Besides, Uncle Zhou Er can still work for another ten or twenty years.”
"No one knows what accidents may happen during this period."
"Maybe Uncle Zhou will have another child, and Zhou Ye will be able to run away like his father."
Finally, he came to a serious conclusion: "Although Uncle Zhou Er is forcing Zhou Ye to join the company, he doesn't actually require him to immediately grow into a qualified successor."
Shen Fangli nodded thoughtfully.
"Brother Yan is the one who understands me!" Zhou Ye sat down on the sofa next to them.
"Why are you here again?" Yan Xianjue said this with a hint of disgust.
Zhou Ye rolled his eyes: "What's the matter? Are you annoyed that I'm disturbing your relationship?"
He turned to look at Shen Fangli: "Let me tell you..."
Yan Xianjue took something from the fruit plate on the coffee table and threw it over.
Zhou Ye took it and looked at it. He liked the wax apple very much and started to eat it right away.
He nodded at the waiter and said, "Give the milk to our Young Master Yan. If he gets hungry later, I can't afford to compensate him."
Yan Xianjue vaguely heard laughter, turned around, and saw Shen Fangli laughing.
Noticing Yan Xianjue looking over, Shen Fangli immediately stopped smiling.
Yan Xianjue said speechlessly: "I asked you to learn acting from Zhuang Yushu, and now you're using it on me?"
Shen Fangli: “No way!”
She took the milk cup from the waiter and took a sip, and sure enough, she felt much better in her stomach.
Yan Xianjue just put it aside and had no intention of drinking it.
Zhou Ye's eyes flashed when he saw this, and he waved his hand to let the waiter go away.
The rest area chosen by Yan Xianjue is a place for the host to rest, and generally no one comes here.
Of course, there is no need to worry about anyone eavesdropping.
After everyone left, Zhou Ye finally started to complain: "Those women almost tortured me to death with their eyes when they walked in."
"People say it's me who's preventing my second uncle from getting married because he's afraid it'll affect my status in the family. Actually, I want my second uncle to get married more than anyone else. Stop focusing on me all the time and find someone who can divert your attention and relieve some of the pressure on me."
Yan Xianjue curled his lips: "You just don't know how to appreciate the blessings you have. What kind of pressure can you have?"
Zhou was not happy to hear this: "I don't have you, but you do?"
Yan Xianjue nodded seriously, then put his hand on Shen Fangli's shoulder: "I have a girlfriend now, and I have to make money to support my family."
Zhou Ye made a vomiting expression and said to Shen Fangli, "You just let him say that?"
Shen Fangli's eyes were dull, and she said in self-abandonment, "Do you think I can control him?"
Zhou Ye found that he couldn't find anything to refute.
He finished eating the wax apple and picked up a pear from the plate: "Want to eat?"
He asked the two people next to him.
The two shook their heads at the same time. Zhou Ye was too lazy to call the waiter back, so he skillfully cut the pear into several slices.
Just as he was about to put the pear in his mouth, he heard Yan Xianjue say slowly, "Haven't you heard that pears can't be shared?"
Zhou Ye: "...I remember you weren't that superstitious."
Yan Xianjue didn't respond: "Why are you here again? Aren't you meeting guests at the door?"
Zhou also complained: "You make me sound like a receptionist in a hotel."
Yan Xianjue laughed and said, "If you ever get down on your luck, I'll definitely arrange a job for you as a receptionist at the Yan Family Hotel."
After more than ten minutes, Yan Xianjue began to doubt whether he had a bad mouth.
After the two of them bickered for a bit, Zhou Ye sighed and complained, "My second aunt's sister is here too."
