Shen Yanli’s expression did not relax at all, and he said calmly: “Go meet some friends.”
Although Shen Yanli did not choose the path of a soldier, three generations of the Shen family served in the army. His ancestors were all wood carriers, and they made friends with prominent figures in the army. Naturally, his social circle from childhood to adulthood could not avoid this circle.
In addition to Brigade Commander Xing Maohui, there are several other friends who are officers in the army, including some unmarried young men, so it is reasonable for them to attend the dance.
Guo Yulin looked at Zhou Yunwan's back as she walked away, and suddenly thought of something. He rolled his eyes and smiled thoughtfully: "I trust the character of your friends. If there is a suitable one, remember to introduce him to Xiaowan."
Shen Yanli frowned, and the lines of his lips gradually straightened. After a long while, he said, "Mom, Wanwan has her own ideas, and she may not like us to worry about her."
Hey, when did she change her name to Wanwan? How could it be his style to be so intimate?
Guo Yulin didn't expect that he would explode so quickly. She glanced at his face which showed that he obviously cared but was pretending to be calm, raised the corner of her eye slightly, and saw through it but didn't say anything.
After holding back her laughter for a while, she said calmly, "Xiao Wan is at the age when she is just beginning to fall in love. She needs to get to know more outstanding boys and set her sights higher. Otherwise, when she goes out, she will be easily deceived by the sweet words of some men."
"As her brother, you have to take responsibility and keep an eye on her at the dance later."
...
...
This was the first time that Chen Yanli felt that the word "brother" was so harsh, but he had to admit that his mother was right and there was some truth in what she said. The young girl was inexperienced and could easily be seduced by some men with bad intentions with just a few benefits.
As her current family, they cannot protect her completely, but they can help her eliminate some inappropriate people to the greatest extent.
His friends flashed through his mind one by one, and his brows furrowed deeper and deeper. In his opinion, none of them was worthy of Wanwan, let alone the other men at the dance.
However, when two people are in a relationship, the most important thing is not additional points such as appearance and family background, but whether they like each other. Even if the conditions are outstanding, it is useless if they don’t like each other.
Who knows if Wanwan will fall in love with a man at the dance?
He was worried about this, so he wanted to go to the dance...
But what about the past? Does he still want to come forward to stop it?
Just when he was slightly distracted, Xing Maohui and a group of older leaders came over to greet Shen Dewen and his wife.
"It just so happens that you can go to the dance with Maohui, and we will go back first." After saying that, Guo Yulin took Shen Yue's hand and walked towards the exit of the auditorium with the other people in the Shen family.
Soon, only Shen Yanli and Xing Maohui were left there.
As a close friend for many years, Xing Maohui could tell that he was distracted and joked, "Dance? Do you want me to help you find a girl?"
Shen Yanli put his hands in his pockets nonchalantly, raised his eyelids, and replied coldly: “Mind your own business.”
Xing Maohui was not annoyed. He narrowed his eyes slightly, thinking of something, and followed his words: "Since I came back, the elderly at home have been urging me to get married more. I am indeed at the age where I should fall in love."
Shen Yanli knew that he would not bring up this matter for no reason, so he did not respond and waited quietly for his next words.
Xing Maohui felt uncomfortable after he saw through his thoughts. He was silent for a few seconds before he said, "Well, I want to ask what kind of man your sister likes?"
As soon as the words fell, their eyes suddenly met in mid-air, and in a flash, there seemed to be awkwardness in the air.
Chen Yanli's brows were tightly knitted, and the sudden change in his expression was really scary. His dark eyes were gloomy, even colder than this winter day. Xing Maohui looked away guiltily and touched his nose mischievously.
"Anyway, I don't like you like this." After saying this, Shen Yanli suppressed the displeasure that surged in his heart and also looked away. He was afraid that he would not be able to control himself and punch Xing Maohui in the face.
When did Xing Maohui start thinking about Wanwan? Is it the excitement after watching the performance this time? Or was it at his house last time? Or was it the last time in the hospital?
But no matter which one it was, it made him extremely unhappy.
Chen Yanli and Xing Maohui's appearance was too outstanding. When they stood side by side, the visual impact was so great that it attracted many performers who had not yet had time to leave.
"Brigade Commander Xing is so handsome, look at that military uniform, it's so handsome that my mouth is watering."
"Who is that guy next to Brigade Commander Xing? He is not inferior to Brigade Commander Xing."
As the saying goes, handsome guys hang out with handsome guys, and it’s really true.
"You don't even know him? Shen Yanli, Chief Shen's son, has a very impressive background and is a professor at Huaqing University. I heard from my sister that every one of his classes is full, even outside the classroom is crowded with people."
"Wow, he's so handsome, but how come he's so capable?"
"Besides, they haven't gotten married yet. Do you think they will attend the dance later?"
As soon as these words came out, the girls were instantly shocked. Not married? The conditions are still so great? It’s simply the most popular of the popular ones!
Everyone was chattering and guessing who would get their favor if they participated.
Zhou Yunwan and Sun Manting, who had just returned from getting something, were blocked behind them and were forced to listen to everything from beginning to end. They had no ill intentions and were just gossiping normally between girls, so she did not say anything to stop them.
As she listened, she first glanced at the group of girls in front of her who were as ferocious as wolves and tigers, and then looked at the two extremely pleasing men not far away. She seriously suspected that if there were no legal restrictions, these two men would be eaten alive!
Zhou Yunwan was amused by her own thought. She curled the corners of her lips and was about to ask them to make way when she heard the topic turn to herself.
"Who knows? You should ask Zhou Yunwan, right? Doesn't she live in Professor Shen's house? I just saw her going over to say hello to Chief Shen and his family."
"No wonder Commander Xing just spoke to her alone. It turns out they have known each other for a long time."
"I'm so envious. I also want to live under the same roof with Professor Shen. I can see such a handsome face every morning when I wake up. I feel happy just thinking about it."
It’s really delicious.
Zhou Yunwan responded to this in her heart. She caught a glimpse of Sun Manting's snickering, her face flushed, and then she raised her hand to her lips and coughed heavily a few times: "Please make way."
The girls then noticed Zhou Yunwan who had been standing behind them. They all showed surprised expressions on their faces, were stunned for a few seconds, and then tacitly moved aside to the sides of the stairs.
Zhou Yunwan walked past the crowd and approached Chen Yanli and Xing Maohui. As soon as she approached, she noticed the subtle atmosphere between the two, especially Chen Yanli, whose face was as black as coal.
What's going on? Did the two of them have a fight?
