"real?"
Chu Xin'er narrowed her eyes and looked him up and down suspiciously.
Those eyes clearly said, "I don't believe it."
"More real than real gold!"
Ye Sheng stiffened his neck, but his eyes were a little unfocused, and he unconsciously glanced to the side.
"Then swear it!"
Chu Xin'er took half a step forward.
"..."
Ye Sheng shrank back, his voice weakening: "I...I really didn't contact her, but Comrade Shen Shuling came to see me several times, each time urging me to get that stone..."
He rubbed his arms, as if recalling some terrifying scene: "She's a violent woman. When she punched me, my elbow was shaking. It hurt like hell!"
"Serves you right!"
Chu Xin'er rolled her eyes at him, then swung her fist and punched his arm: "You lied to me! You deserve a beating!"
This punch was delivered with full force, producing a dull thud.
Ye Sheng winced in pain, jumped half a foot high, and raised his voice: "Ouch! Chu Xin'er, are you a dog? You just attacked without warning! It hurts like hell!"
"Who told you to talk such nonsense!"
Chu Xin'er stood with her hands on her hips and her chin held high, looking like a victorious little hen, but with a mischievous smile hidden in her eyes.
"What are you two making such a fuss about? You two are such a pair of clowns."
Ye Nian'an smiled and stepped forward.
To be honest, if it weren't for Song Yan, she would have really considered pairing Chu Xin'er and Ye Sheng together.
After all, they do look very much like a married couple.
However, Ye Nian'an eventually confirmed her feelings for Ye Sheng and Chu Xin'er, and they simply regarded each other as siblings who were bickering, without any other feelings.
Only then did I feel completely relieved.
Just as Chu Xin'er was about to complain, Ye Sheng quickly covered her mouth, grinning and laughing, "It's nothing, it's nothing! We were just joking! Haha..."
"Are you kidding me?"
Ye Nian'an raised an eyebrow, her gaze sweeping over Ye Sheng's reddened arm, a knowing smile curving her lips: "I think someone got beaten up."
"No way!"
Ye Sheng quickly waved his hand and tried to slip away: "Niannian, hurry up and go, don't keep your older brother and the others waiting, the fireworks outside should start soon!"
"stop."
Ye Nian'an's voice wasn't loud, but it carried an undeniable force, and her eyes flashed with a dangerous, lurking light.
Ye Sheng subconsciously stopped, turned around, scratched the back of his head, and gave an awkward smile: "Nian... Nian Nian, what's wrong?"
"Third Brother."
Ye Nian'an took half a step forward, the moonlight shining in her eyes, as bright as if it had been tempered into stars: "I guess you two were talking about Comrade Shen Shuling, right?"
Ye Sheng's face inexplicably turned red. Just as he was about to wave his hand in denial, he heard her continue, "I'm quite curious about this comrade. Since you're looking for her, why don't you take me with you?"
Ye Nian'an was incredibly intelligent.
Shen Shuling went to Ye Sheng several times, saying she wanted the stone, but it seemed like she had ulterior motives. She clearly had her eye on her third brother. Was she trying to get closer to him in this way?
Although in this era, feelings between men and women are very reserved.
But if it was Shen Shuling who did it, it wouldn't be surprising at all.
She is an exceptional woman who can become best friends with Chu Xin'er without being outdone, demonstrating that she has principles, opinions, and a bright and shining spirit.
Otherwise, how could she have co-founded such a large Fortune 500 company with Chu Xin'er and become a superwoman?
Crucially, she's also a shrewd businesswoman; she'll work hard to earn whatever she wants.
Then look at my third brother, all he can think about is "how to expand his business all over the country," that scheming spirit combined with Shen Shuling's shrewdness...
Ye Nian'an couldn't help but think to himself: If these two were to get together, they could probably revitalize all the businesses in Haicheng. Just thinking about it makes me think!
"This...this isn't quite appropriate, is it?"
Ye Sheng's ears turned bright red, and he frantically tried to grab Chu Xin'er as a shield: "We were just chatting casually, we haven't decided to go see her yet..."
Chu Xin'er watched from the side and couldn't help but laugh, deliberately tearing him down: "Brother Ye Sheng, stop pretending. He's come to you several times already. Sister-in-law, I think Comrade Shen Shuling has her eye on this guy."
"You little brat! What nonsense are you spouting!"
Ye Sheng jumped up like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, his handsome face turning bright red, the redness spreading from his cheeks to his ears, like a sorghum of sorghum that had been thoroughly dried in the sun, but he stubbornly refused to admit it.
Chu Xin'er's eyes lit up, as if she had discovered a huge secret. She clapped her hands and exclaimed, "Oh my, your face is so red, and you're still being stubborn!"
"I think it's not just that the girl is interested, but our Brother Ye Sheng is also in love, isn't he?"
"you--"
Ye Sheng was speechless, and tried to cover her mouth in a flurry, but Chu Xin'er nimbly dodged him. He stomped his feet in anger, looking like a wronged big boy.
Ye Nian'an laughed so hard she couldn't stand up straight, and patted Ye Sheng's arm: "Alright, Third Brother, what are you afraid of? More people means more protection."
"Besides, I can also give you some advice on how to deal with Comrade Shen, which is better than you figuring it out on your own."
"Niannian, there's really no need for this..."
Ye Sheng was almost in tears.
How could I possibly be interested in that violent woman?
Although she is indeed quite cute and has a very lively personality.
The thought had barely surfaced when he forcefully suppressed it, but his cheeks burned even hotter. He could only grit his teeth and repeat, "It really was just to talk to her about the stones, nothing else!"
