17 Shanghai Trip (Updated)
◎ Damn it, I can't help but mock her again.◎
When Liang Youwei was halfway through writing her thesis, the head of the Shan family in Shanghai was about to celebrate his 31st birthday. He sent invitations to his old friends in the capital, and the Liang family was among them.
Shan Xun is not a person who attaches great importance to ceremony. This birthday party is actually an internal investment promotion for the group's latest project to see which company is willing to cooperate.
Liang Youwei was the most excited: "Then can I not write the paper for the next two days?" Liang Zhihui smiled and pinched her cheek: "Just barely, I don't have to write it."
Liang Jingyi frowned: "Second sister, this matter is right in front of us, we can't delay it at all..."
Liang Zhihui paused, gave his younger sister a soothing look, and then spoke: "The family won't be counting on Youwei in the future. As long as she's happy, nothing else matters."
Sisters have different living environments since childhood, so naturally they have different ideas.
Zhihui knew from a young age that she had a family business to inherit. She had many options and wiggle room, so she was confident in controlling everything.
But Jingyi is not like that. She lives in an uncertain environment, alone. She only knows that what is in her hands is real. If she doesn't seize the opportunity quickly, then she will lose everything.
Liang Youwei knew her fake sister's temperament well. She rubbed against her and spoke softly, "Third sister, I'm just out looking for inspiration. I'll write in a few days, and the result will be amazing."
Oh, you even use idioms.
"You have some literary talent, but you use it to please people." Liang Jingyi was too lazy to give her a good look, but he couldn't help but secretly glance at her out of the corner of his eye.
My words were not nice, but I couldn't help it because I was a little afraid that she would be angry.
"It's because this little bit of ink can only be used to fool people," Liang Youwei was very generous and not angry at all. She just whispered, "Other serious things can't be done."
"Are you still so proud?" Liang Jingyi glanced at her.
Damn it, I couldn't help but mock her again.
Liang Youwei thought she looked a little bit arrogant, which was quite nice, so she also smiled, held her chin and said nothing.
A slightly suspicious look flickered between them, and Liang Zhihui felt something was amiss. When had the relationship between these two become so close?
Liang Youwei happened to talk about something else at this time, successfully interrupting Liang Zhihui's thoughts: "Second sister, second sister, you know Sister Fang, so can I choose her new summer dress first? I heard that the theme of this season is flying flowers. Isn't it beautiful?"
Liang Zhihui came back to his senses and put the strange feeling behind him: "I know you like it, so the factory sent it over right after it was sold. It arrived last night. You two can choose together."
"Thank you, second sister~" This is Liang Youwei.
"Thank you, second sister." This is Liang Jingyi.
………
Three days later, in a single house in the western suburbs of Shanghai.
The sky is clear and the air is fresh, and the breeze is gentle.
"Why doesn't Mr. Shan hold the banquet at Tan Palace?" Liang Youwei held a champagne glass in her hand, shaking it intermittently. "Tan Palace is so magnificent and large. Although this villa is also quite large."
"Tan Palace is sparsely populated, and one building is prosperous while the other is deserted. It doesn't look good." Shao Yue smiled and explained to her slowly. After that, he asked lazily, "Do you like Tan Palace very much?"
"Not really," Liang Youwei said, taking a sip of Coke. "I just think living in Tan Palace is prestigious. It's one of the top ten luxury homes in Asia. What a nice title."
"Maybe those living in Tan Palace envy you for living in the West Second Ring Road of the Imperial Capital." Shao Yue chuckled softly, reading out the menu. "After all, your Liang family has quite a few houses, on the East and West Second Ring Roads, on Chang'an Avenue, in Sanlihe... big and small, aren't there enough for you to live in?"
"That belongs to the Liang family, not me." Liang Youwei moved her lips, and suddenly felt that the Coke didn't taste good. She lowered her head, pursed her lips, and whispered: "I didn't plan to live there in the future."
Shao Yue didn't seem to notice her sudden loss, and continued to be frivolous and casual: "Do you want to live with me in the future? When I buy a villa, I'll count you in."
"Okay, then I'll wait for you." Liang Youwei chuckled, temporarily putting aside her unhappiness. "Hey, Brother Shao Yue, why don't you go out and socialize like Zhao Lingyu? Are you going to work for a big company in the future? My second sister has taken my third sister to meet people."
"The Shao family is different from the Qin and Zhao families. I'm more relaxed here, so it's okay for me not to go. Besides, you don't have any acquaintances in Shanghai, so you won't be bored staying alone, huh?" Shao Yue lowered his head slightly to look at her, his eyes full of affection.
Being looked at like this by him, Liang Youwei's heart skipped a beat. She pursed her lips, forcing herself to suppress her unspeakable emotions. She only raised her almond-shaped eyes, a little proudly saying, "I'm pretty, so someone must come to chat with me."
No one here knew she had a bad temper or was a fool, so there should be many people who liked her. She was a "domestic bully" and rarely left the capital to attend banquets since she was a child. No one here knew her.
Thinking of this, she cleared her throat, put down the crystal wine glass, and turned around reservedly and coquettishly: "By the way, Brother Shao Yue, am I beautiful today?"
"You are so beautiful, Miss Liang Youwei." Shao Yue suppressed his laughter and his voice became soft.
The two chatted for a while, and Shao Sheng, Shao Yue's third brother, came to call for help: "Second brother, eldest brother wants you to discuss the matter of the land in Pudong. He said you should stop chatting with Sister Weiwei."
Every member of the Shao family has a handsome face, handsome men and beautiful women, especially the youngest, Shao Sheng, who is particularly delicate and beautiful. Liang Youwei likes him the most and smiles as soon as she sees him: "Shengsheng, come here quickly and let your sister pinch your face."
The 17-year-old boy shyly moved closer to her: "Sister Weiwei, you have to be quiet and don't let anyone see you."
"Oh, I know you're a big star now, so you need to be particular." Liang Youwei's shiny nails gently pinched the boy's cheek, and then she let go after satisfying her desire. She smiled at Shao Yue, "Don't worry, Brother Shao Yue, let's go. I'm fine on my own."
Shao Yue adjusted his collar with one hand, raised his eyelids and glanced at his younger brother. His tone was completely different from before, and his aura had changed: "Don't run around."
The implication is that he never leaves Liang Youwei's side.
Shao Sheng was speechless, and raised his thin eyelids: I understand.
Liang Youwei is a talkative person who can strike up a conversation with anyone. She looked at Shao Sheng curiously: "Shengsheng, how are you doing as an idol? Are you tired? I see that you've grown a lot taller, but you've also lost a lot of weight."
There is no flesh on the face and it feels terrible.
"It's definitely tiring, but it's also incredibly fulfilling." Shao Sheng portrays himself as a cool, smoky-voiced young master, but those who know him know he's a chatterbox. The excitement of his debut last year lasted a long time, and even today, he still can't stop talking about it.
He told Liang Youwei about his singing and dancing career, which he practiced day and night, the excitement and nervousness of being on stage, and the sincerity and loveliness of his fans... This was a world she had never seen before. Liang Youwei was listening intently when someone put his hand on her smooth and white shoulders. She turned around in a daze.
"Miss, are you alone?"
He is a man, and he looks okay, but he doesn't look very energetic.
"No, it's with my brother. What's the matter?" Liang Youwei turned her shoulders away calmly, not letting him touch her anymore.
Shao Sheng was not a good-tempered person to begin with. He immediately frowned and stood in front of Liang Youwei. His tall figure completely blocked the girl's view. "Who are you?"
Seeing this, Shan Yu sneered: "Who are you? How dare you ask who I am? Shan Xun Shan Dong, my brother, do you know?"
Oh, master, it seems that you can’t be too rude.
Liang Youwei is no longer as unscrupulous as before, and has restrained herself a lot. If it were her old self, she would have rolled her eyes and scolded in a delicate voice: "Take your paws away! Who dares to touch me?"
But now, she just smiled reservedly: "Sorry, my brother cares about me more, he doesn't mean anything else." After that, Liang Youwei tapped Shao Sheng's suit cuffs and told him with her eyes: Don't go too far when you are out.
Shao Sheng hadn't been home for a long time and didn't know a lot about many things. Naturally, he didn't understand why Liang Youwei suddenly became cautious. He was stunned: "No, sister, what are you afraid of..."
Liang Youwei couldn't help but glare at him, and for a moment, her imperial accent burst out: "What are you doing? Shut up."
Seeing how cautious she was, Shan Yu's awe disappeared from his eyes.
He's probably a broke man, looking for a rich man. He even has a pretty little brother... Rabbit God? In the parlance of their capital.
Seeing the person in front of her suddenly laugh out loud, Liang Youwei couldn't help but frown, and lowered her voice to Shao Sheng and said: "No, no, this person must be sick, go and call Shao Yue."
Shao Sheng was also annoyed with him, frowning and saying, "Why should I go alone? Let's go together. Who's going to stay and argue with this guy?"
"Oh, you're back from your debut and you can speak Northeastern dialect now?" Liang Youwei was open-minded and wanted to tease him. Shao Sheng's ears turned red: "The second oldest brother in our group is from Northeast China."
Liang Youwei smiled and patted the back of his hand: "You have a wide circle of friends, which is worthy of praise. Okay, go call people."
"Then wait for me, sister. I'll be back soon."
"Yeah, don't worry."
Seeing the girl in the white dress send her brother away, Shan Yu became more certain of his idea. The corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise: "Listening to the young lady's accent, she sounds like she's from both the north and the south."
"I grew up in the imperial capital, but my mother is from the south." Liang Youwei gathered her long curly hair with a faint smile.
The topic was normal at the beginning, mostly revolving around birthplace and taste preferences, but gradually, Liang Youwei felt something was wrong.
He smiled sanctimoniously, with a hint of almsgiving arrogance and a strong sense of capitalism: "Miss, now that we've reached this point, I won't beat around the bush. How much is it for you per session?"
"Hmm?" Liang Youwei was puzzled and repeated subconsciously: "Once, how much?"
Shan Yu was amused and deliberately imitated her innocent and confused tone: "Yes, how much is one time?" His eyes became interested, frivolous and obscene, and he patrolled and scratched Liang Youwei's exposed skin.
Liang Youwei couldn't understand the ways of the world, but she was not blind and had basic ability to discern "indecent teasing".
The humiliation, anger, shock, and shame of being offended surged into his heart. After a brief moment of shock, Liang Youwei directly splashed the Coke in the champagne glass on his face and cursed in a trembling voice:
"Side-dependence."
Shan Yu was also stunned.
This is the Shan family's place, the Shan family's bureau! This woman from another place not only dared to throw it in his face, but also dared to call him a little bastard?!
Shan Yu stopped pretending and wiped his face, sneering: "A man who is out to find a rich husband, asking you the price is giving you face, but you are so shameless, right?"
Twenty years of pampering broke out again at this moment. Liang Youwei slapped him without thinking: "What the hell are you talking about?!"
【Author’s words】
P.S.: Let me explain one thing. In this article, considering the different personalities of the characters, the words they use when cursing are also different. Most men (or those who are not very decent) like to curse their mothers, while women, naturally, curse their fathers. But Liang Youwei has no understanding of feminism at all. All her ideas are very simple and natural, so her curses are very general and direct.
