Chapter 170 The Younger Mother-in-Law
He usually says this when hanging up the phone or sending a voice message.
The video, filled with such direct and affectionate words, made Yan Buyu blush from head to toe.
Si Jingxu did not do it on purpose.
I know she's usually shy, but today she drank so much that she couldn't hold back and blurted out what was on her mind.
"Guess who I was drinking with," Si Jingxu changed the subject.
"Who?" Yan Buyu followed up on his question, "Brother Long Yu and the others? It's definitely not my older brother, they're at the company."
“Song Jingyi.” Si Jingxu lay down on the bed. “I drank with him.”
“Oh,” Yan Buyu pulled out a cushion and lay down on the sofa as well, “Your mothers are good friends.”
"Did you buy anything while shopping with Aunt Lan?"
The two chatted idly without any particular topic, just like any couple in love, saying whatever came to mind.
After a while, Yan Buyu spoke up but found that Si Jingxu had not replied.
He looked at the screen and smiled silently.
Si Jingxu was already asleep.
This was the first time Yan Buyu had seen him asleep.
His alluring peach blossom eyes were closed, and wisps of hair fell across his forehead. At this moment, he wouldn't make her blush or tease her; he seemed more like an innocent and harmless college student.
Without saying a word, she reached out and tapped the screen with her finger, then traced it across his lips, and whispered, "Brother Jingxu, I like you so much too. Sleep well."
She hung up the phone.
Si Jingxu on the other end chuckled.
He had only closed his eyes to rest for a short while when he heard his girlfriend's soft confession.
This drinking session was totally worth it.
Her quiet summer vacation is over; she's now a junior in college.
On the first day of school, the whole family put aside their own plans and insisted on taking her to school together.
She was both amused and exasperated. It wasn't like she was starting university for the first time; it was just a summer break.
Shen Zhiye disagreed, straightening his collar. "That's not how it works. This summer has brought about too many changes for our family. Today, everyone must go and take our Shen family's little princess to school."
Shen Yanzhou, dressed in a suit he would wear to an important meeting, stood to the side and said, "Buyu, your older brother didn't see you off on your first day of university, but he's never missed the first day of school since."
Shen Yunqi, needless to say, said, "When did you start school? Wasn't it me who took you? They're just causing trouble. This is my daily routine."
Lan Xinyan then pulled her aside, saying, "Isn't it a bit over the top for Mom to wear this necklace? Maybe she shouldn't wear it and should just carry my limited edition bag instead."
In the end, Yan Buyu happily compromised.
The three cars set off together.
Shen Yunqi's car led the way.
Shen Zhiye and Lan Xinyan were in the middle car with Yan Buyu.
Shen Yanzhou was adjourned.
“Okay, I’ll experience being a national leader on a trip too.” Yan Buyu leaned on Lan Xinyan’s shoulder. “Mom, I love you both so much.”
"We love you too, my darling. Let's go home early tonight and have hot pot, okay?"
Four luxury cars were parked at the university gate, attracting a crowd of onlookers.
“That’s Jingxu’s car, right?” Shen Zhiye got out of the car with his daughter’s hand and noticed that a Maybach Zeppelin was following behind Shen Yanzhou.
Without saying a word, Yan looked over and saw a man in a white casual suit, wearing sunglasses, get out of the car and walk slowly over.
He took off his sunglasses and held them in his hand, raising an eyebrow almost imperceptibly towards himself.
Without saying a word, her heart skipped a beat.
I clearly told him he didn't need to come.
Si Jingxu came over under the watchful eyes of his girlfriend's family.
"Uncle Shen, Aunt Lan," Si Jingxu greeted politely, then looked at Yan Buyu, "I listened to you, I didn't come here specifically to see you off, I was just passing by."
Lan Xinyan chuckled; every girl likes a boyfriend like that.
"Jingxu, we're having hot pot tonight. Come over if you're free."
Si Jingxu smiled brightly, "That night I'll pick Buyu up from school."
"That won't work."
"no."
Shen Yunqi and Shen Yanzhou spoke at the same time.
"Yunqi and I will pick Buyu up from school tonight. You can go straight home." Shen Yanzhou handed his bag to his little sister. "Go in, don't be late."
Unwilling to participate in the age-old dilemma of who picks up and who drops off, he waved goodbye to everyone.
She blushed for a moment when she looked at Si Jingxu, then quickly entered the school after saying goodbye.
Is this what happiness is all about?
The students were very excited as the new semester began.
Even though communication is convenient now, it can't compare to the joy of chatting face-to-face.
Yan Buyu and Qin Nianke were the same; they would chat endlessly together after class.
"School's started again. Let me see how long the holiday is," Qin Nianke said, scrolling through her phone. "It's almost National Day."
"Why are you in such a hurry to take a vacation?" Yan Buyu asked her, then suddenly pointed at Qin Nianke's neck and said, "Hey, did you get bitten by a mosquito?"
A small red mark was visible on the left side of Qin Nianke's neck, where the collar did not cover it.
Her face flushed, and she tugged at her collar.
Yan Buyu didn't realize it at first, but seeing her like this, he immediately understood.
Even if you haven't eaten pork, you've still seen pigs run, right?
This...this...
"It's okay, I misread it, I won't ask anymore." Yan Buyu smiled slyly.
Qin Nian slapped her arm in an annoyance, "I'm in a relationship."
"That's great, that's great. I'm not forcing you to tell me, it's all voluntary. You'll always be my best friend and my closest sister."
"I want to tell you," Qin Nianke was about to speak when her phone vibrated twice. She glanced at it, "I'll tell you later, he called me."
After saying that, Qin Nianke blushed, said "Hey," and left her seat, walking to the side.
Yan Buyu pondered whether he should call Si Jingxu.
As if on cue, the phone rang.
She answered the call with a smile, "Brother Jingxu."
"Hmm, get out of class is over? Did you have fun on your first day of class?" Si Jingxu leaned back on the sofa and made a phone call. The moment he heard her voice, he couldn't help but smile.
“This isn’t my first day of class; it’s just my first day of junior year,” Yan Buyu said with a smile. “If you have something to do tonight, you don’t have to come to my house for dinner.”
"Aunt Lan told me to go, but you don't want me to go. Aren't you afraid I'll be sad?"
"Ah!!!" Qin Nianke suddenly ran over and yelled at Yan Buyu, "You're in a relationship???"
She's smiling so sweetly, she must be on the phone with her boyfriend!
“Um,” Yan Buyu didn’t hang up the phone, she paused for a moment, “Well, Nianke, I wanted to lay the groundwork for you before I told you.”
Qin Nian was even happier than if she had found a boyfriend herself. She grinned widely, extremely excited, "Have him come over for lunch! I want to see him! I want him to meet his future mother-in-law! Hurry! Invite him over for lunch!"
“Nianke…that…actually he is…”
"I won't listen! Don't say anything! Give me a surprise! I want to see who can kidnap our little Buyu! Hahahaha!"
Silence: ...
There's still an hour until lunchtime.
During that hour, she tried to tell Qin Nianke the truth several times, but Qin Nianke covered her ears and dodged her each time.
After the two found a table at the restaurant, Qin Nianke was still excited.
Suddenly her gaze fixed on the doorway, her smile freezing on her face. "I see my cousin. What's he doing here?"
"Holy crap, why is he dressed so flashy? Oh my god! Why is he walking towards me?!"
Si Jingxu strolled over as if on vacation, and under his cousin's blank stare, walked to Yan Buyu's side, pulled out a chair and sat down.
His right hand rested on the back of her chair, a clear declaration of his dominance.
Qin Nianke opened her mouth and didn't move for a long time.
Si Jingxu glanced at her and sneered, "Little mother-in-law?"
