Chapter 340 Shocking! Sworn Sisters Become Mother-in-Law and Daughter-in-Law?
Pei Jinwu: "..."
Shang Shiyan: "..."
The two looked at each other, but neither spoke.
"?"
Seeing Shang Shiyan staring intently at the great Demon, Ms. Zhong Man's temples throbbed violently.
What does that mean?
Could he have fallen in love with the god Demon at first sight?
Too.
Who could resist being captivated by Jinwu's face?
Oh, wait, that's not right.
He already has a girlfriend, how could he possibly like other girls?
Tsk tsk tsk.
That's trash.
"Smack—"
Ms. Zhong Man would not tolerate such a scoundrel in the business. She slapped Shang Shiyan's arm with all her might and shouted, "What are you looking at? Call for help!"
"..."
Shang Shiyan's mind went blank; he was completely dazed and couldn't hear a word his mother said.
"Call me Auntie!"
Zhong Man sighed softly and reminded her again, "Although Jin Wu is young, she has become my sworn sister, which elevates her seniority."
"It's perfectly normal for you to call her 'Auntie'."
"..."
Pei Jinwu listened quietly, her eyes darting back and forth between the mother and son.
Tsk.
Shang Shiyan's face was very ugly, so gloomy it looked like it was about to drip water.
That's kind of funny.
"you--"
Seeing that Shang Shiyan was still staring intently at Jin Wu, Ms. Zhong Man felt somewhat embarrassed.
Just as I was about to remind him, the man finally made a move.
Are you sure?
Shang Shiyan slowly turned his head, his gaze falling on Ms. Zhong Man's face, his voice hoarse as he asked, "Are you sure you want me to call her 'Auntie'?"
"ah?"
Ms. Zhong Man leaned closer, nodding blankly but confirming, "Yes, I'm sure."
Jinwu calls her Sister Man; how could he possibly address her by her full name?
"..."
Shang Shiyan forced a smile, walked straight up to Pei Jinwu, took her hand, and said again, "Are you sure you want me to call you my future daughter-in-law... Auntie?"
"Yes, Auntie."
Ms. Zhong nodded slightly, then suddenly stopped mid-sentence, staring incredulously at the two people's tightly clasped hands. Her eyes widened in shock, and her lips trembled violently: "What? What did you say? She's my daughter-in-law?"
Is Demon God Shang Shiyan's little girlfriend?
Could you possibly be interested in him?
"Um."
Shang Shiyan nodded, quite surprised by the absurd way the two met, and introduced her with a helpless expression: "My girlfriend, Jin Wu."
Hello, Auntie.
Pei Jinwu turned her head to look at Ms. Zhong Man and greeted her politely.
"..."
Ms. Zhong Man was so frightened that she took two steps back, her mouth agape, unsure how to respond.
Sworn sisters have become mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
“I didn’t know you were Shang Shiyan’s mother before,” Pei Jinwu said softly, her lips moving slightly. “I apologize for my intrusion.”
But at least it can be explained.
Why can't the two of them appear in public anymore?
identity……
It certainly caused a sensation throughout the city.
No, no, no.
After hearing Pei Jinwu's words, Ms. Zhong Man hurriedly waved her hand, her smile rather awkward: "I was much more presumptuous than you."
"..."
Pei Jinwu blinked, unable to respond to that.
"Let's go inside and talk."
Shang Shiyan stepped in to smooth things over, pulling Pei Jinwu towards the private room on the top floor.
"..."
Watching the two figures disappear into the distance, Ms. Zhong scratched her face and almost burst out laughing.
It's better to say something than to say it.
That kid's got some nerve to win over Demon.
Sisters become mother-in-law and daughter-in-law?
It's alright, it's alright. We're family now, and your daughter-in-law is great too.
——
Inside the private room.
Shang Hechuan and Zhong Man sat side by side, with Pei Jinwu and Shang Shiyan opposite them.
"Miss Pei, what a coincidence."
Shang Hechuan smiled and spoke in a gentle and polite manner: "I never expected that you would be Shi Yan's girlfriend."
"That's what you call fate."
Zhong Man pushed the fruit plate in front of Pei Jinwu, her eyes almost squinting with laughter, clearly showing how much she liked her: "Try it, it's quite sweet."
"Thank you, Auntie."
Pei Jinwu picked up a piece, just as she was about to eat it, when she heard Ms. Zhong Man say:
"Wuwu, what do you see in our Shi Yan?"
"?"
Pei Jinwu stopped chewing and looked up in confusion.
"Don't misunderstand," Zhong Man quickly explained, "I'm just curious about how he managed to win you over."
The top scorer with a perfect score.
A master of dance.
Jewelry designer.
I heard he can also race cars.
The important thing is that he also plays the game well.
Good boy.
The girl is incredibly talented, especially considering she's only eighteen.
Have your eye on the Shang Dynasty inkstone?
She really can't understand!
"Shi Yan has had a strange personality since he was a child. He is cold to everyone and never lets girls get close to him."
Ms. Zhong Man revealed all of her son's embarrassing secrets: "We used to suspect that he liked boys, hahaha."
"..."
Upon hearing his mother's laughter, Shang Shiyan's face turned ashen.
"Is that so?"
Pei Jinwu was infected by the laughter, and the corners of her mouth turned up. She replied softly, "I also thought he liked boys before."
"Thank goodness it isn't."
Ms. Zhong Man felt too uncomfortable craning her neck, so she simply helped Shang Shiyan stand up.
The two switched seats, and she happily ran to Pei Jinwu's side, then muttered, "Wuwu, you don't seem to be nineteen yet, do you?"
"Um."
Pei Jinwu nodded.
"Tsk."
Ms. Zhong Man looked up at Shang Shiyan with a rather disdainful expression: "Thank you."
"Um?"
The thanks came rather suddenly, and Pei Jinwu was caught off guard.
"If it weren't for you, Shang Shiyan would have been a bachelor for life," Zhong Man retorted without any politeness.
"..."
Pei Jinwu looked at Shang Shiyan and saw that the man was making her dessert, a slight smile playing on his lips.
He seemed to agree with what his mother said.
"Don't worry, if he ever dares to bully you again, I, Man-jie, will..."
"..."
Pei Jinwu glanced at her.
"wrong……"
Zhong Man suddenly stopped, composed herself, and said again, "Mom, I..."
"..."
Pei Jinwu continued to look at her, a question mark slowly forming in her mind.
"Aunt."
After two mispronouncing phrases, Zhong Man finally found the correct way to address her: "Auntie will back you up."
"..."
Pei Jinwu smiled and moved her lips, saying, "Okay."
"Oh, right—"
While chatting, Zhong Man remembered the gift and instructed Shang Hechuan to bring it over.
"For you."
Zhong Man placed the box in front of Pei Jinwu and said gently, "This is a family heirloom that the merchant gave to his daughter-in-law."
family heirloom?
Pei Jinwu opened the box and saw a three-piece jade set inside.
Necklaces, bracelets, and earrings.
Its color is green, its quality is top-grade, and its value is immeasurable.
"The original purpose of my visit today was to see if Shang Shiyan was deceiving you."
Zhong Man stared at Pei Jinwu, explaining with delight, "But seeing that he treats you quite well, I'm relieved."
"We're just dating..."
Pei Jinwu looked up at Zhong Man and asked directly, "You didn't even ask about my family situation. Aren't you afraid that something might happen in the future and you won't be able to get such a valuable item back?"
"Won't."
Zhong Man smiled and answered without hesitation: "I know my son. The girl he chooses is absolutely excellent. Her family background doesn't matter at all."
"If we really do separate in the future..."
Zhong Man gently grasped Pei Jinwu's hand, her expression serious: "It's definitely that brat's fault, it has nothing to do with you."
That little bit of stuff isn't even enough to compensate you for the loss of your youth.
"..."
Shang Shiyan sighed silently.
It's worth noting that he is her biological son.
