Sheng Yue bit her lower lip, tugged at Sheng Lao San's clothes, and whispered in his ear, "Didn't you say Mom wasn't home?"
For a moment, she suspected that Sheng Laosan and his gang had conspired to embarrass her in front of the camera.
Sheng Laosan asked in confusion, "Yesterday Mom said she was going to an auction."
Sheng Laosan had told Ye Ning about the filming from the very beginning.
Ye Ning wouldn't care about these things.
Sheng Laosan only heard that Ye Ning planned to go to the auction to buy some things today, and he knew that Ye Ning and the others did not want to hear any news about Sheng Yue right now.
There was no deliberate mention to Ye Ning that the production crew would be filming today.
"Third brother, could you go and tell Mom?"
Sheng Yue pleaded with Sheng Laosan.
Sheng Laosan pursed his lips. "You know Mom's personality."
He comforted Sheng Yue, "Mom might not say anything."
In truth, he wasn't sure himself; he was just trying to comfort Sheng Yue.
Sheng Yue's heart was in her throat, and her mind was in turmoil.
Xinghe was also a little surprised, as Ye Ning had said she had something to do today.
Ye Ning winked at Xinghe and gave her a shushing gesture.
Xinghe didn't know what Ye Ning was planning to do, but she cooperated with her unconditionally.
Sheng Heng seemed to have noticed something as well, his gaze sweeping over the group, especially over Sheng Yue.
Ye Ning said, "Please, everyone."
The crew went in and were met with a chorus of exclamations of surprise.
The host said, "I've long heard that the Sheng family owns a vast estate, which was designed by President Sheng himself when he proposed to President Ye. I wonder if we'll have the opportunity to see it for ourselves today."
There was such a step in the process, but we had agreed beforehand to check the front and back yards first.
Now that Ye Ning is here, the production team wants to capitalize on her popularity.
I heard that this villa cost hundreds of billions to build.
It has never been exposed to the public before.
Ye Ning smiled and said, "Sure, let my sister show you around."
"younger sister?"
Sheng Yue suddenly stepped forward and said, "It's Xinghe. Xinghe's nickname is Meimei. My mother's hometown is in the southwest, and people there like to call her that."
"Is that so? What an adorable nickname."
The host looked slightly puzzled, then followed up with, "Then thank you for your hard work, Xinghe."
Sheng Heng put his hands in his pockets and said, "What are you calling her? This is my sister."
The atmosphere at the scene was joyful and harmonious.
Xinghe led the group on a tour starting from the first floor.
Sheng Yue's hands were sweating with nervousness. She looked at Ye Ning with pleading eyes, hoping that Ye Ning wouldn't be so heartless.
Ye Ning's gaze swept calmly over her.
[Hmm...it's a bit hard to describe. Something feels off, but I can't quite put my finger on it.]
[Isn't this Sheng Fu and Sheng Yue's house? Why are they having Xinghe show them around? And have you noticed how much Xinghe looks like President Ye?]
[Sheng Xiuwen and Sheng Hongwen are brothers, and Ye Ning and Shi Shulan are best friends, so they must have a very good relationship. It's normal for Ye Ning to be nice to Xinghe, right?]
I don't know, let me think about it some more.
Does nobody think that Sheng Yue doesn't look like a member of the Sheng family at all? The Sheng family is full of famously handsome men and beautiful women from top to bottom. Sheng Yue looks out of place standing with them, but Xinghe...
Are Xinghe's fans so desperate to become the daughter of a billionaire? They can even get away with this?!
[It's quite audacious that someone dared to insult **.]
[Is Sheng Fu crazy? His own sister is right there, and he doesn't pay any attention to her. Since last episode, he's been staring at Xinghe the whole time. Anyone who didn't know better would think Xinghe is his sister. Seriously, that's enough. Our poor young lady is really pitiful.]
The Sheng family has changed a lot since they came from Xinghe.
Xinghe likes flowers and plants.
The original sunroom has expanded from a little over 100 square meters to nearly 1,000 square meters.
Almost all species of flowers and plants can be found in the sunroom.
The place where small poplar trees were originally planted was transformed by Sheng Xiuwen into a small amusement park, the kind built specifically for young couples.
It's small and cute.
The golden couple loves this place the most, and they come here to play whenever they have free time.
I used to spend all my time with Xinghe, now all that's left is to make it my home in the backyard.
Seeing how much they liked it, Sheng Xiuwen made a one-to-one replica and built one for Xinghe as well.
Xinghe loved it too.
The sapling grew a little bit, and a few more trees were planted around it to keep it company.
...
Zhang Lanying and her mother were a little tired from walking.
Zhang Lanying said jokingly, "I always thought that the stories about getting lost in your own house in novels were fake, but now I really understand."
She called out to Sheng Laosan and Sheng Yue, "When Teacher Sheng and little sister Sheng Yue were little, they would play hide-and-seek at home. I bet they would have gone by all day and still not be able to find each other."
Sheng Laosan said with a cold face, "I've never played hide-and-seek before."
“My third brother has loved all kinds of musical instruments since he was a child and was busy learning them. My mother hired several teachers for him. My third brother was very busy when he was a child.”
"Oh, this is the first time I've heard of this. Teacher Sheng released an album when he was eighteen years old, which became a hit all over the country. We all say in private that he is the type of person who is born with God's help."
Zhang Lanying's curiosity was pure.
Like other art forms, music can be mastered through hard work to reach an average level, but to reach the level that Sheng Laosan has reached, both talent and hard work are indispensable.
Sheng Yue desperately wanted more screen time and couldn't wait to show how good her relationship with Sheng Lao San was in front of the camera.
So she started talking about her childhood with Sheng Laosan in front of the camera.
"Third Brother's favorite thing is the piano."
Sheng Laosan: Actually, no, he prefers the violin, but he is best at the piano.
“My third brother has been writing songs since he was a child. He would stay up late at night to write music. My mother has seen him writing music in his room in the middle of the night many times.”
“My third brother has always been the best to me since I was little. He would get angry if other people messed up his sheet music or instruments, but he didn’t get angry when I lost his sheet music. He even coaxed me.”
What's your third brother's favorite food?
"Hmm, it should be steak. Third Brother isn't a picky eater."
“When I was a child, some students would block my way and ask me for money. It was my third brother who chased them away.”
Sheng Yue looked sweet, and as she talked about her childhood, her expression became increasingly happy.
Zhang Lanying said with a hint of envy, "You two have such a good relationship."
"Yes, my third brother is the best to me."
Sheng Yue smiled sweetly in front of the camera.
Sheng Laosan's face was expressionless, with his eyelashes slightly lowered.
Sometimes he didn't know whether Sheng Yue wanted her brothers or the obedient, demanding men she imagined.
None of the things Sheng Yue said about his preferences were correct.
He likes music, but he's far from being obsessed with it.
He thought carefully about what Sheng Yue had said about that period of time. It seemed that he had been staying up all night playing games. After Ye Ning caught him, he pretended to be looking for inspiration.
Ye Ning told this story as a joke at the dinner table.
