Compared to meeting Shen Songguo, Jian Zizhuo was obviously more relaxed in front of Shen Shuo and Shen Mingzhou.
Maybe he thought he was praising Shen Chu...
The tone is really annoying.
Due to their status, Shen Shuo and Shen Mingzhou could not say anything openly, not to mention...
"Yes, since you invite me so sincerely, I must come."
Chen Chu raised his head, straightened his chest, and tucked in his stomach, with his chin slightly raised, and he looked very confident: "Be grateful."
Jian Zizhuo: “…”
That expression is almost like eating poop.
Shen Shuo and Shen Mingzhou looked at each other, shook their heads and walked inside. Why did you provoke him?
The youngest in their family has never been someone to be bullied since childhood... I have a deep understanding of this.
This time, the birthday party for the old man of the Jian family was indeed grand, and many people were invited, but when you walked in, you could find that those small circles could clearly distinguish the people.
Gathering place, Vanity Fair.
This cannot be avoided even at a birthday party held in the name of "congratulations".
What's more, the nature of this birthday banquet was not simple.
This time, the project led by the government has the most intense competition, and the families most likely to get the project, besides the Shen family, are the Jian family.
So this time when the old man of the Jian family celebrated his birthday, he also invited the Shen family. It was said that Qiao Jiaxuan would also attend. At this time, it was hard not to think too much and watch the fun...
Especially the two younger ones who have been in the spotlight recently, also came along -
Many people fixed their eyes on Shen Chu and Xie Shiming.
The secret speculations and scrutiny could not be stopped.
We are all in the same circle, and we can find out some situations if we want to know them, not to mention that some things are not secrets at all.
For example, the several children of the Shen family are all outstanding, which makes people feel jealous even though they feel jealous.
For example, the youngest, the biological child, was already 5 years old when he was brought home from outside, but he has always been "the other people's child" and a role model from childhood to adulthood.
Finally, there is a story that people talk about, the "fake young master" who accidentally entered the Shen family, but in the first exam after returning to China, the other party actually "stepped" on the real one...
Look, it’s only been a short time since the exam and he brought it out.
It can be considered as giving face.
Otherwise, why would there be rumors that this Shen family member who is not a biological child must have some tricks up his sleeve?
After returning to China, I wanted to gain a foothold in the Shen family. Isn’t it already effective now?
They have seen too many dark secrets in the wealthy families, so they can't imagine anything "beautiful", so most of them are conspiracy theories. They don't believe that Shen Chu can gain a foothold in the Shen family because the Shen family truly accepts and loves him. Even though they have been separated for so many years and have been together less and less, the feelings between them still exist.
If this kind of thing were told to other people, it would probably be a joke.
So who would believe that bringing the two little ones to this birthday party, especially this one who is not a biological child, was done without any purpose and was just brought there because they wanted to?
Most people can't help but think too much.
You may even feel that you have figured out everything.
Then looking at the relationship between Shen Chu and Xie Shiming, it is hard not to feel that they are just being polite and acting...
This little one is not simple.
Many people think so, even if it is just based on academic performance.
He pushed the Shen family's biological child aside without any hesitation. He was quite brave, but I don't know if he did it on purpose.
If it was intentional, that would be even more incredible.
"What do you think they are thinking about right now? Why do I feel like they are all looking this way?"
Chen Chu secretly followed Xie Shiming and whispered to him, and could always feel the vague gazes...
I don’t know what’s so good about it, tsk.
The topic could not be continued because the old man of the Jian family came out.
It was also a coincidence that Qiao Jiaxuan arrived not long after the old man of the Jian family came out.
Everyone's attention could not help but be drawn to it——
If we talk about the most popular person in City B recently, it must be Mr. Qiao who just arrived from South City.
Another confirmed partner for the project.
Although the other party will not have the right to directly determine who the other party's partner will be, it can at least play a certain role.
So as soon as Qiao Jiaxuan appeared, someone immediately went up to him and started a conversation with him.
Before things are settled, no one wants to miss the opportunity.
After all, who would have thought that after all the fight for this project, the one that got the first spot was actually the one from South City...
No matter what he felt in his heart, he had to put on a smile when facing Qiao Jiaxuan.
These days, whoever holds the steering wheel controls the direction.
Didn’t you see that even the old man of the Jian family is going to Qiao Jiaxuan’s place?
But it seemed that Qiao Jiaxuan didn't see it. As soon as he came in, he noticed something, said a few simple words to the person who came up to talk to him, then said goodbye and walked in one direction with a clear purpose.
The old man of the Jian family froze in his tracks, with an embarrassed look on his face.
Everyone stared at it, either openly or secretly.
I saw Qiao Jiaxuan heading towards the Shen family...
"I didn't expect to meet you here."
No one cares whether you really didn't expect it or just pretended to.
Since the gift-giving began during the Mid-Autumn Festival, there has been a tacit understanding that we should meet in a public setting.
Now it is a relatively tacit result.
Shen Chu had been standing behind Shen Shuo, looking at Mr. Qiao with some curiosity.
The other person looked young, about the same age as his uncle, and his temperament seemed elegant and gentle, which made it easy for people to like him.
But in the past two days, Shen Chu has heard Shen Shuo and Shen Mingzhou talking about this Mr. Qiao, who started from scratch and was able to gain a foothold in South City in just over a decade. It is not even as simple as just having a place. It can be seen that he is not an ordinary person. Not to mention the partners of this project, just with Qiao Jiaxuan's identity here, there are probably many people who want to make connections with him.
Just as he was thinking about it, he saw the other party turn his gaze and look at him.
Shen Chu was stunned subconsciously.
Is his sight too obvious?
It seems that it is not a good idea to stare at people.
But before he could show an apologetic expression, Qiao Jiaxuan smiled at him, and it was a quite gentle smile.
This time Shen Chu was even more stunned.
Some didn’t know how to react.
He scratched his head and subconsciously smiled at Qiao Jiaxuan.
As a result, Qiao Jiaxuan seemed to smile more gently.
"It's a pleasant surprise that Mr. Qiao can come."
The old man of the Jian family also came over at some point, followed by Jian Zhibo and Jian Zizhuo. Jian Yan was left at the end. He was obviously the original wife's son, but he looked like an outsider.
The father of Jian Xing and Jian Yan is a playboy and a useless man, so until now, the Jian family still has to rely on the old man of the Jian family to support it. Jian Xing left the Jian family a long time ago, and they only have one son, who is useless, so the only one who can take over is Jian Zhibo.
Jian Zhibo naturally brought Jian Zizhuo with him, as he was his biological brother.
However, their mother was not qualified to attend such occasions.
But the mistress of the Jian family, the mother of Jian Xing and Jian Yan, has not been in good health since giving birth to Jian Yan, and generally does not attend such occasions.
As for Jian Xing and Jian Yan's father, he was sent to entertain other guests. There was no point for him to stay here anyway.
Qiao Jiaxuan smiled and looked at the old man of the Jian family——
"What the old man said really humiliates me."
"Of course I have to come to your birthday party."
"Yeah."
The old man of the Jian family is flexible, but he is obviously not a soft-tempered person.
"But it seems that Mr. Qiao and nephew Shen are having a good chat."
Old Master Jian glanced at Shen Shuo and the others, then looked at the two children standing behind Shen Shuo. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart that the Shen family had such good genes that even a child who was taken away by mistake could be so outstanding.
But their children are not bad, it's just...
"I quite like children. Before coming to City B recently, I happened to notice an incident where a few children saved someone. I didn't expect to see them here, so I couldn't help but want to come over and get to know them."
As he spoke, Qiao Jiaxuan looked at Shen Chu again and said with a smile: “I felt a sense of familiarity with this kid the moment I met him, but I was afraid of scaring him just now, so I didn’t have time to chat with him.”
Hmm? Him?
Shen Chu blinked. Why were you suddenly talking about him?
Just as I was thinking about it, my wrist was suddenly grabbed again.
Turning around, he saw Xie Shiming frowning slightly and staring at Qiao Jiaxuan.
Not only was Shen Chu puzzled, but even Shen Shuo and Shen Mingzhou couldn't help but feel a little surprised when they heard these words.
The two couldn't help but look at each other. They had never expected that Qiao Jiaxuan came for their Chu Chu.
This kid...could he have gotten into trouble again?
But it doesn't look like it...
"Oh, this kid."
Mr. Jian's words were somewhat meaningful, but he changed the subject and said, "Your grades are pretty good. I heard that you got first place in the joint exam right after returning to China, even surpassing our Jian Yan."
"Oh, by the way, Mr. Qiao may not know yet, our Jian Yan and Mingzhou's——"
Mr. Jian pointed at Xie Shiming's seat and said, "He always ranks first in both schools."
"As a result, when the two schools came up with a joint ranking, the top spot was snatched away by this kid."
"So this really proves the saying that there are always people better than you, and there are always better things than you."
These words made Shen Mingzhou and Shen Shuo couldn't help but frown.
Although he was praising their Chuchu, but if Chuchu and A Ming had a bad relationship, what would the other one think after hearing this?
But I also find it kind of funny.
Maybe they said Chuchu and Aming had the best relationship, but those who had been in the upper circles for a long time probably wouldn't believe it.
So Shen Shuo and Shen Mingzhou looked at each other secretly, but no one spoke.
It's not bad to just listen to what the other person wants to say.
However, neither of them spoke, but Qiao Jiaxuan actually spoke at this time -
"Really? Is this child so outstanding?"
Qiao Jiaxuan smiled and said, "I just like smart and excellent children. It's not tiring to talk to such children."
"Then we really need to get to know each other."
As he said that, Qiao Jiaxuan looked at Shen Chu: “How about we add each other’s contact information now, kid?”
Um......
Shen Chu was thinking, how did things turn to him?
Although he didn't dislike Qiao Jiaxuan——
After all, what the old man from the Jian family said just now really put him on a pedestal, and no one knew what his purpose was. As a result, Qiao Jiaxuan didn't fall for it at all, and even had the intention to protect him...
So, why should we protect him?
