Chapter 27
Chapter 27
Shu Yao looked back and saw that the CPU was almost burnt out.
She didn't react until Shen Ye walked in front of the two of them.
The rich sister introduced her to Shen Ye enthusiastically: "This is my friend I met in Treasure Notes, Mumu."
Chen Ye didn't seem to know either, "Did you play?"
"What's wrong? I was just too bored some time ago." After saying that, she looked at Shu Yao again, "This is my son, Chen Ye."
Facing Chen Ye's eyes that clearly showed he was enjoying the show, Shu Yao could only smile awkwardly.
The wealthy sister didn't notice the unusual atmosphere. Instead, she asked curiously, "Where's my precious daughter-in-law? Why didn't she come with you?"
Shu Yao felt like there was something stuck in his throat.
Shen Ye glanced at her lightly and said, "Here I am."
"Hmm?" The wealthy sister looked around. There were many girls walking around the mall entrance. "Where are you? Why don't you come with us?"
Chen Ye said: "The one with the white casual shirt and jeans, the one who looks the best."
“…” The rich sister was stunned for a few seconds and turned around suddenly.
Their eyes met.
"Sister, ah..."
Shu Yao's brain seemed to stop working suddenly. Several names popped up in his mind at once, and he stumbled and fell before finding the right one.
"mom."

Because of the sudden intersection, the visit to the Shen family was suddenly brought forward.
Along the way, Shen Ye's mother Qian Manqing spent one-third of the time blaming Shen Ye for not showing her the photos before, which led to the misunderstanding.
He spent one-third of the time praising Shu Yao, and another third discussing dinner dishes with the chef at home, saying he wanted to cook himself.
The Shen family's old house is backed by mountains and faces the water. The surroundings are very quiet. The five-story villa is obviously very expensive. There is even a security booth at the door.
Shu Yao originally thought that Chen Ye’s villa was already very luxurious, but compared with the old house, it seemed a little dwarfed.
When you push open the door, you will see the dining area, which has an open bar and a long table that can accommodate ten people.
Qian Manqing first took out two pairs of black slippers from the shoe cabinet. They were exactly the same style and size, and the logo on the instep made Shu Yao realize that this should be at least her previous month's salary.
Shen Ye frowned: "Mom, it's too small."
"They're not small." Qian Manqing put on a pair herself and pulled Shu Yao to try on the other pair. "Yaoyao, try them on. If they're too small, Mom will buy you a new pair."
Shen Ye: "..."
It’s not a couple’s style, but a mother-daughter style.
There is no place for him at all?
"Where's mine?" Shen Ye asked.
Qian Manqing said confidently, even taking it for granted: "I didn't buy it."
“…”
"Of course you're not the only one who doesn't have it. Your father and your brother don't have it either."
After asking Chen Ye to entertain him well, he hurried into the kitchen.
Shen Ye casually took a pair of his old slippers from the shoe cabinet.
Looking at Chen Ye's speechless expression, Shu Yao didn't smile, but asked worriedly: "Are you... unhappy?"
Shen Ye was stunned: "Why do you say that?"
Shu Yao followed him to the coffee table and watched him take a bottle of fresh milk from the small refrigerator next to it, insert a straw, and hand it to her. "When I was in elementary school, my dad really liked... the neighbor's kid. His grandparents wouldn't let him drink Coke, so when my dad found out, he'd secretly buy it for him. But when I wanted to drink it, he'd tell my mom to buy it for me. At that time, I was very unhappy. I felt that he treated outsiders better than his own daughter."
Although he has grown up now, Shu Yao puts himself in his shoes and thinks that if he encounters the same thing, he will still be unhappy.
Shen Ye raised his hand and gently rubbed her nose with his knuckles: “If you are an outsider, I will be unhappy, but you are not an outsider, you are my wife.”
Shu Yao rubbed his nose, said "oh" softly, and lowered his head to drink milk.
Shen Ye glanced at the time: "It's still early, shall I take you for a walk?"
"Okay." Shu Yao didn't forget the milk in her hand. She drank it while going outside with him.
The glass door slowly opened, revealing a huge swimming pool with a basketball court and a badminton court next to it.
There were two middle-aged men playing basketball. Looking at the clothes worn by one of them, Shu Yao finally understood why the security booth was empty just now.
Shu Yao was stunned and couldn't help asking, "Did you hate studying when you were a child?"
"Why do you ask?"
"I think if I lived in a home like this when I was a child, I would definitely not want to go out every day." Shu Yao bit the straw and expressed his envy very frankly.
Chen Ye laughed: "I hated studying before my senior year of high school."
"You're being weird. Most people hate studying because of the pressure of their senior year, but you're doing the opposite."
"Yeah." Chen Ye said seriously, "I'm studious, I just like the third year of high school. If you give me a chance to do it again, I'll spend ten years in the third year of high school."
“…”
So studious.
Shu Yao could only admire him.
Walking around the basketball court, there is the entrance to the basement. In Shu Yao's imagination, there might be a garage downstairs with a row of colorful luxury cars. Selling one of them could support her for the rest of her life.
But in fact, the basement was much more low-key than she had imagined. In addition to a small cinema, there was also a gym. A room with a closed door next to it caught Shu Yao's attention.
Because there was a wooden sign hanging on the door, with a few words carved on it with a knife:
[There are ferocious huskies inside, please do not enter. ]
"What is this?" Shu Yao asked.
Shen Ye picked up the wooden sign with his right hand and said, "My brother's secret base is never allowed to be entered."
"Your brother has a husky? Why does he keep it in the basement?"
"No." Chen Ye said, "He is a fierce husky, a recognized husky, and a self-proclaimed fierce one."
Shu Yao: "... quite, quite the image."
She scratched her forehead, and after visiting the basement, she followed Shen Ye into the elevator and went straight to the third floor.
"The second floor is my dad's reception room or something, which is kind of boring. The third floor is all bedrooms."
Shu Yao looked around curiously. The environment on the third floor was very quiet. There was incense burning in the closet in the corridor, filling the air with a faint pine scent.
Chen Ye took her into one of the bedrooms. The gray wall cushions and black ceiling made it look quite low-key, but the area of the room where the bed was placed alone was probably twice the size of the house that Shu Yao and Zhao Tiantian rented.
There were some ornaments on the table. Shu Yao used his fingers to move the glass ball on the pendant, and the glass ball hit the thin tube next to it, playing a pleasant melody.
There is a square box in the corner of the table.
It was bright red, without a single word on it.
Shu Yao thought there was some valuable ornament inside, so she opened the box and took a look. However, the next second, she began to regret why she had such damn curiosity.
There were dozens of boxes of condoms neatly arranged inside. The packaging was all in English. If Shu Yao hadn't at least known the word "condom", he wouldn't have been able to tell.
Her mind raced, and she finally chose to close the box calmly.
"Uncle and aunt, they are quite loving."
Shen Ye supported the table with his right hand and rubbed the tip of his nose with the knuckle of his index finger: “This is our room.”
“…”
"If I'm not mistaken, this should be something my mother prepared for us."
"..." Shu Yao pinched her earlobe awkwardly, "This is too much. Even if I use one a week, how long will it take to use it?"
"You're being very rude."
Shu Yao:?
Shen Ye tutted lightly, and his straightforward gaze fell on her face: "Do you have a misunderstanding about men, or do you just misunderstand me?"
Shu Yao ran away without even remembering to take the milk on the table.
Shen Ye laughed muffledly, helped her hold the milk, and slowly followed her upstairs.
After I had basically finished touring several floors, I heard the sound of brakes outside.
Chen Ye said that it was probably his father who came back. Shu Yao instantly cheered up and returned to the living room with a business smile.
Not long after, a tall middle-aged man pushed the door open and walked in. If Shen Ye inherited his mother's beautiful eyes, then these lips were exactly like the man in front of him.
Obviously, he is the famous Shen Yu.
Chen Yu was dressed in a suit and tie. Although he was probably in his fifties, he maintained a very good figure. Even when he walked, he had an upright posture and exuded an extremely powerful aura.
Seeing someone in the living room, he turned his head, looking serious and without any expression.
Shu Yao followed Shen Ye and called out "Dad".
Shen Yu didn't seem too concerned, nodded, and then asked Shen Ye: "Where's your mother?"
Shen Ye raised his chin slightly and looked towards the kitchen, and Shen Yu put down the briefcase in his hand and went in without hesitation.
"Oh! I'm cooking, don't bother me, get out!"
...three seconds later.
Chen Yu came out dejectedly.
"Your mother is thoughtful. She's worried that it's bad for my health if I inhale too much fumes." He rubbed the tip of his nose and said to Chen Ye expressionlessly, "I'm going upstairs to take care of some work. Call me when it's time for dinner."
Shu Yao: “…”
*
Dinner consists of seven dishes and one soup.
Probably because she had learned about her taste from Chen Ye beforehand, there were mostly Chinese dishes on the table, and they were all her favorites.
Qian Manqing took off her apron and handed it to the nanny next to her. She looked at Shu Yao and said with a smile, "Yaoyao, Auntie's cooking skills are not very good. Although I said I would cook today, I will only make one dish. The rest are made by the chef. Please don't mind."
Shu Yao quickly shook her head: "Of course not, Mom, you've worked hard."
Qian Manqing covered her chest and whimpered like a kitten, looking happy and beckoning her to try it quickly.
He turned around and told Chen Yu what happened in the art gallery today.
"You said I don't know how to curse? But Yaoyao said that person probably wasn't a player, and was probably a social media outlet trying to capitalize on the popularity. I was like, how could a player be so uncultured?"
Chen Yu remained calm, not even frowning, but the words he spoke sent a chill down one's spine: "Which number?"
Shu Yao thought to himself, it’s all over, the domineering CEO has spoken, and Mr. Wang next door is going bankrupt.
This is much better than idol dramas.
Qian Manqing drank a mouthful of soup and soothed him, "It's okay. Yaoyao has already fought back for me. Besides, he's probably just an employee and has nothing to do with the account."
Shu Yao had always felt that for Chen Yu, her existence or not didn't seem to matter. In other words, he didn't care what kind of wife Chen Ye found.
Only at this moment did he look at her seriously, nodded slightly and said, "Thank you."
Shu Yao stumbled over his words for once: "No, you're welcome, uncle... er, dad."
Seeing her like this, Qian Manqing smiled and patted her hands: "Don't be nervous, your father is like this, he looks fierce, but he is actually very protective of his children."
Before Shu Yao could respond, she added, "When Chen Yang and Chen Ye were bullied as children, it was their father who went to seek justice."
Shu Yao waited for Chen Ye to say "Don't take me", but it didn't happen.
She asked in surprise: "Have you really been bullied?"
She thought he was the only one who bullied others.
Chen Ye calmly put a piece of beef brisket into her bowl: “I was young at that time.”
"Right, right." Qian Manqing said to save face, "The other party was a burly man. Xiao Ye was only in the third grade at that time. He never cried before. I thought he was naturally not fond of crying. That was the first time. It really distressed his father."
"Mom." Shen Ye interrupted helplessly.
Qian Manqing pursed her lips and raised her hand to make a zipper-like motion in front of her mouth.
The meal lasted about an hour, and most of the dishes on the table were gone. Qian Manqing rubbed her stomach with satisfaction and asked Shu Yao, "Which dish do you think is the best?"
"They're all delicious." Shu Yao thought for a moment and pointed at the sweet and sour pork. "This is my favorite."
Qian Manqing's smile grew even brighter. "I made this dish! We really are so in tune with each other."
At that moment, Shu Yao heard Chen Ye beside him let out an ambiguous chuckle.
But he didn't point it out.
It wasn't until I sent her home late at night and when we got downstairs that I casually asked her, "How did you know my mom made sweet and sour pork? Because it's the worst?"
"No, I think it's delicious." Shu Yao said, "I just noticed that your father picked up the sweet and sour pork the most frequently during the meal, and when we finished eating, there were still three pieces of sweet and sour pork left, and they were also taken away by your father."
"Can't he just simply like to eat sweet and sour pork?"
"But he didn't touch the equally sweet and sour sweet and sour pork ribs next to it."
Shen Ye smiled and said, "You're quite good at guessing."
Shu Yao unbuckled her seat belt, and before getting out of the car, Chen Ye asked her if he had scared her today.
Shu Yao smiled and shook his head, saying, "No, I really like the atmosphere of your home."
It has nothing to do with material things, it is a kind of magnetic field between people.
The whole family sat together at the dinner table, without arguments or complaints. That was the world she had longed for but could not reach.
But now, Shen Ye’s house made her feel as if there was such a warm place.
The night was dark and the car was silent.
Shen Ye looked at the dark windows on the eighth floor, and then there was light.
He leaned back in his seat and thought about what she had just said.
If you like the atmosphere of their home, that's fine.
It would be even better if you could like him at the same time.
