"Sister-in-law, I think Comrade Shen Shuling must be blind. Such a beautiful girl, how could she fall for Brother Ye Sheng..."
Chu Xin'er couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
Oh dear, I suddenly feel like I'm at a disadvantage being a woman.
I wish I were a man.
That way, he could have a harem of three thousand beauties.
The moment she saw Shen Shuling, she was instantly smitten.
"Feel the same."
Ye Nian'an also really liked Shen Shuling.
In addition, knowing from her past life how capable Shen Shuling was, and how outstanding and ahead of her time she was...
If my third brother can really find this treasure, it will be a blessing he has accumulated over several lifetimes.
"Cough cough."
Ye Sheng walked at the front, and when he saw Shen Shuling, he cleared his throat awkwardly, trying to attract her attention.
Shen Shuling turned around at the sound, glanced at Ye Sheng’s face, and then looked back at what he was clutching tightly in his hand.
She raised an eyebrow, nimbly jumped off the stone bench, walked a few steps to him, and decisively extended her hand.
Where is the stuff?
Ye Sheng was taken aback by her blunt and unpolite attitude, and his displeasure resurfaced.
With a dark expression, he slapped the "hot potato" into her palm and said irritably, "Here, your darling! Here you go!"
Shen Shuling took the stone, wiped it on her clothes like a precious treasure, and then held it up to the sunlight before nodding in satisfaction and putting it in her pocket.
She looked up at Ye Sheng, curled her lip, and snorted, "Don't think that returning the stone will make everything alright! Let me tell you, Ye Sheng, this isn't over!"
"You broke my precious item, made me look for you several times, and wasted so much of my time. You still owe me that!"
"you……"
Ye Sheng was speechless with anger.
How can this woman be so unreasonable!
What more do you want from a broken rock?
However, before he could refute, Shen Shuling's attention was suddenly drawn to Ye Nian'an behind him.
Her eyes suddenly lit up as she looked Ye Nian'an up and down.
Those eyes were filled with curiosity, inquiry, and admiration!
"etc……"
Shen Shuling's tone suddenly became somewhat uncertain. She tentatively asked, "Comrade, you look familiar...Aren't you...that person from the Chu family?"
Ye Nian'an smiled slightly, but before she could speak, Shen Shuling excitedly slapped her thigh.
"I remember now! You're that lucky koi fish who gave birth to seven babies in one pregnancy and had ten children in total, Comrade Ye Nian'an!"
Haicheng is only so big, and the news of the Chu and Ye families being exonerated has already spread like wildfire.
In particular, Ye Nian'an's legendary feat of giving birth to three children in her first pregnancy and seven in her second, making it a "perfect" ten, is more exciting than any storytelling or folk tale!
Nowadays, the name "Ye Nian'an" is almost synonymous with "good fortune" and "luck" in Haicheng.
If any woman's daughter-in-law could share in her good fortune, it would be an incredibly auspicious occasion, like her ancestors' graves emitting auspicious smoke.
Shen Shuling had long been incredibly curious about this legendary "lucky koi," and she never expected to actually meet him in person today!
Looking at her starry eyes filled with the hope for good luck, Ye Nian'an smiled helplessly: "It's all the neighbors' kindness, it's an exaggeration."
"No exaggeration at all!"
Shen Shuling approached with a confident look, circling around Ye Nian'an like a little fangirl, clicking her tongue in amazement.
"Sister Nian'an, you're amazing! You're so beautiful and have such a great presence!"
Her enthusiastic, unpretentious, and undisguised praise was so straightforward and endearing that it amused Ye Nian'an and Chu Xin'er, who were standing beside her.
"You're very pretty too."
Ye Nian'an said sincerely, "It's like a ball of fire, it makes people feel warm just by looking at it, and it's full of vitality."
"Right, right! I told you I'm good-looking!"
Shen Shuling laughed heartily with her hands on her hips without any modesty, then looked at Chu Xin'er, who hadn't said a word, and greeted her warmly.
"This young lady is also very pretty. The two of you standing together are a feast for the eyes!"
Chu Xin'er smiled and introduced herself, "Nian'an is my sister-in-law. My name is Chu Xin'er."
"Chu Xin'er?"
Upon hearing the name, Shen Shuling was first taken aback, and then her bright eyes widened instantly.
She pointed at Chu Xin'er, her tone full of disbelief.
"I remember now! You're Chu Xin'er from Class 3, Grade 74, Junior High School of Haicheng No. 1... the one who always competed with me for first place in every exam?!"
Chu Xin'er was also amused, not expecting that it really was her former classmate: "I felt that your name sounded familiar... Your personality hasn't changed at all, you're still as energetic as ever."
"Of course!"
Shen Shuling excitedly grabbed Chu Xin'er's hand.
"Let me tell you, I always thought you were a really energetic girl back then, and you've grown into such a beautiful young woman in just a few years!"
Two former "rivals" met again after many years. Instead of feeling awkward, they hit it off immediately and became very friendly.
"Oh, right."
Chu Xin'er remembered something and her eyes lit up: "Shuling, how did you do on your college entrance exam? Did you get into university?"
"Absolutely!"
Shen Shuling proudly raised her chin: "I'm the only one in our compound who got into a four-year university! Haicheng University, Finance Department!"
"real?!"
Chu Xin'er and Ye Nian'an both exclaimed in surprise.
"I'm also from Haicheng University!"
"Me too!"
"Oh my god! The three of us have become alumni!"
Shen Shuling was so excited she almost jumped up, as if she had found her long-lost organization.
