Chapter 14 Future Sister-in-law

At this time, Fu Yun and the servant had already gone to bed, the lights in the Shen family's villa had been dimmed, and only the lights in the corridor were left on for her.

Mrs. Wang put on her coat and came out of the room to greet her: "Why are you so late? Madam has been waiting for you. Seeing you didn't come back so late, she was very worried. I had to persuade her to go upstairs to rest. Are you hungry? The kitchen has left fish soup for you. I'll make you a bowl of noodles?"

"Don't bother, I'm not hungry." Shuang Xu said softly, "You should go and rest, I'm going to sleep too."

Mrs. Wang watched her go upstairs and then returned to the nanny's room.

Shuang Xu didn't turn on the light again, and went upstairs to the bedroom quietly without disturbing anyone.

In the morning, Fu Yun saw her and asked, "Where did you go last night? Mrs. Wang said you didn't come back until the early morning."

"I went drinking with Brother Zifeng and the others." Shuang Xu behaved very normally, as if nothing had happened yesterday.

Seeing that she looked fine, Fu Yun's uneasy heart finally settled down.

Mrs. Wang prepared some coffee and brought it over. Shuang Xu lowered her head while eating her fried eggs and heard Fu Yun across from her say, "Your brother is already thirty-one after his birthday, so it's time to get married. I discussed it with your godfather yesterday and we plan to choose a girl of equal status from a family in Yancheng, and your brother has no objection. If you are free these few days, can you help me look for one?"

"Okay." Shuang Xu raised his head and smiled, "The person you choose must be good in every way."

Fu Yun said that this was probably just a test, and in fact she only asked Shuang Xu to look at the photos together once.

For a family like the Shen family, marriage is a bond of interest between the two families, and it is not something that younger generations like Shuang Xu can get involved in. What's more, she is not even from the Shen family.

Born in such a class, she might not even be able to influence her own marriage, let alone Shen Yu's.

She had just finished taking a shower when she received a call from Yue Zifeng.

Yue Zifeng asked her to go out and play, and Shuang Xu said, "You guys go play, I'm going to rest."

"You went to bed so early? Are beds at home more comfortable than those in the United States?" Yue Zifeng said, "You used to be so diligent. You insisted on following your brother even if he didn't take you with him. Now you won't come no matter how hard we call you. Really? Your future sister-in-law is here, why don't you come and see her?"

Shuang Xu felt a little tinnitus in his ears, and wondered if it was because water got into his ears while taking a shower.

She didn't expect things to progress so quickly.

Is this settled?

She had no idea who the other person was or which family she belonged to.

Shuang Xu didn't want to go, so he covered his face with the quilt, but he was afraid that he would appear weird if he didn't go and be seen through.

What attitude should a younger sister have towards her sister-in-law?

Curious, excited, and eager to find out...

So she pretended to be excited and responded, "Of course I want to see it. Send me the address."

Forty minutes had passed when Shuang Xu arrived at the club.

The place Yuexia Haitang is quite special, not because of its luxury. On the contrary, compared with the magnificent facades of other clubs, this courtyard house within the Second Ring Road is "expensive" enough in itself.

Of course, it is not lacking in luxury. The white marble steps are engraved with curling grass patterns, and a transplanted Podocarpus chinensis in the courtyard is worth millions.

Those who come here for entertainment are all rich or noble young men. Pick any one of them and you'll find that his family background is so noble that it's beyond reach.

Young girls flock to this place. The name Yuexia Haitang sounds romantic, but in fact, money, power and desire are its underlying colors.

This place is not membership-based, but idle people cannot enter.

Vehicles were not allowed to enter, so Shuang Xu got off at the door.

As I walked in with my handbag, I saw a pure black Koenigsegg parked in the yard.

Okay, who gave him the last name He?

When Shuang Xu entered the box, the group was in high spirits.

It was very lively inside, with a lot of people, men and women, some of whom I knew and some of whom I didn't.

"Sister, here."

Yue Zifeng waved her over, hugged her, pointed at the woman sitting next to Shen Yu with his wine glass, and said with a smile: "Do you know who this is? Your future sister-in-law."

Unlike the elegant and dignified lady that Shuang Xu had imagined, this woman was very young, only in her early twenties, with bright eyes and full of energy.

It’s hard to tell whether it’s because the lighting in this private room is too dim, or if Shen Yu’s expression is just that dull.

He did not deny it, but just glanced at Yue Zifeng calmly, and said in the tone he usually used to insult him: "You should go see a dentist for your leaky mouth."

Yue Zifeng didn't care: "Shuang Xu is your sister, she's not an outsider, she knows what happened."

"I haven't made any progress at all." The woman was a little embarrassed, but it was a very real and natural shyness with an innocent background. It was obvious that she was brought up by a pampered family.

She looked at Shuang Xu with curiosity: "Are you Xiao Jiu?"

Only Shen Yu would call her Xiaojiu.

Shen Yu talked about her with his marriage partner, but never mentioned a word to her.

The other person even knew her nickname, but she knew nothing about him.

This gave Frost Sequence a subtle feeling of being isolated.

In fact, sooner or later there will be such a day, in the future Shen Yu will have his own family, his own wife and children. The privileges she once enjoyed will be lost sooner or later.

"Hello, I've wanted to meet you for a long time. My name is Lu Manman." Lu Manman smiled friendly.

Shuang Xu smiled politely in response: "Hello, Miss Lu."

"Why are you so formal? Just call me Manman. I'm the same age as you." Lu Manman said, "Don't listen to Zifeng's nonsense. I'm not your sister-in-law yet. It's just that my family has this idea, so let's get in touch first and see."

There is no difference.

A marriage unites two families, and as long as the two parties do not vomit at the sight of each other or have some permanent defects, the marriage can be easily finalized.

Shuang Xu also said: "Then I will change my words when you have learned some skills."

Lu Manman took out her phone and said, "Come on, add me on WeChat."

In front of Shen Yu, Shuang Xu naturally couldn't refuse.

As soon as she accepted the friend request, Lu Manman took her arm in a familiar manner and even came over to sniff her: "You smell so good. What perfume do you use?"

"..." She was almost able to sniff out the Frost Order Society.

But this is her "future sister-in-law", so she resisted the urge to pull her hand back: "I'm not wearing perfume today."

Lu Manman smiled and said to Shen Yu: "Your sister is so cute."

Although they are in the same circle, Shuang Xu and Lu Manman are not familiar with each other at all.

Lu Manman is He Tingzhou's cousin, and Commander He is her uncle. Her father holds an important position in the Military Commission, and in his early years he was often stationed in Lincheng for duty. She grew up in Lincheng with her parents since she was a child.

Shuang Xu and Lu Manman's life trajectories just happened to be different. When she was in Yancheng, Lu Manman was away. Five years ago, when Lu Manman came back, she was sent abroad instead.

Lu Manman and her half-sister Song Leyan are good sisters.

Unfortunately, the relationship between the two sisters in the Song family is like that of enemies.

The topics of conversation basically revolved around Shen Yu and Lu Manman, and everyone made some jokes that were not too extreme between friends, and the atmosphere was relaxed and happy.

Lu Manman was only 22 after all, and her face turned red when she was teased by a group of people. She leaned over to Shuang Xu and asked, "Xiao Jiu, tell me in secret, does he have any shortcomings that others don't know about?"

Shuang Xu said: "My brother has no flaws."

"You asked the wrong person. If you ask my sister, she will give Shen Yu 10,000 points. You should ask me." Yue Zifeng stretched out his hand, "Give me a hundred yuan, and I will tell you all the little secrets of Shen Yu."

Lu Manman smiled and slapped his palm: "I don't believe you, I only believe Xiaojiu."

When Shuang Xu heard this, he turned around and looked at her, with a probing look in his eyes.

Did Lu Manman really not remember the last time they met, or was she just pretending in front of Shen Yu?
