Chapter 377 Italy
Si Jingxu's face darkened even more. "Call Long Yu for a drink later."
He Run raised an eyebrow. "Come on, let's make this kid look bad. We've got such a good sister for free."
Long Yu's parents pulled Shen Zhiye and his wife aside to talk, their words filled with affection for Shen Buyu.
"When I gave birth to Ayu, I consulted a fortune teller. He said I was destined to have a daughter, but I couldn't conceive. I thought the fortune teller was a fraud, but who knew that I would actually have a daughter when I was over fifty?" Longyu's mother looked at Chen Buyu more and more fondly.
“Then I’ll have to go and have my fortune told to see how many children I’m destined to have,” Lan Xinyan said with a smile. “It’s a blessing for Buyu to have a godbrother like Long Yu.”
Shen Yunqi plucked the flower with the word "brother" from Long Yu's chest.
"Brother Longyu, it's so silly of you to wear that." After saying that, he pinned it to his chest.
Just kidding. Everyone in the room, except for Si Jingxu, is thinking about taking his sister away from him.
He had to wear this flower to assert his dominance and let everyone know that he was the number one brother.
"Hey, Yunqi, Yunqi, let me wear this." Long Yu reached out for the flower, but Lin Xia grabbed him.
"Stop wearing flowers, Young Master Si's eyes are practically spitting fire at you." Lin Xia was speechless. "Besides, those flowers are so tacky, where did you get them?"
“I had someone buy it from the wedding shop,” Long Yu said, looking at Lin Xia with a much gentler gaze. “From now on, you’ll have a sister-in-law too.”
Lin Xia glared at him playfully, "Don't call me that. Bu Yu is my future nephew's wife."
“Then if you marry me, you’ll have to call me that too.” Long Yu squeezed her hand. “Otherwise, we can each call each other our own.”
"Who wants to marry you?" Lin Xia pinched him. "Your mother just gave me a bracelet. Why doesn't she mind that I'm older than you this time?"
“She’s grown up and should be more sensible,” Long Yu said with a smile, trying to comfort her. “I haven’t gone on blind dates or had a proper relationship for so many years, so she’s getting anxious. She even asked me before if I liked men.”
"You're just talking nonsense to fool me." Lin Xia straightened his collar. "It's almost time, let's get ready to start. We agreed to play cards later, so hurry up."
"Alright, alright, we won't delay your mahjong game. We'll try to let you play a couple more rounds." Long Yu immediately instructed the emcee to proceed with the ceremony.
The family reunion ceremony was very simple. The master of ceremonies said a few words, the parties involved said a few words, and then the meal began.
It was originally simple and joyful.
But Long Yu suddenly burst into tears. From the time Shen Buyu hugged him and called him "Mom" last year until now, he could finally be open and honest with her.
This is really not easy.
When Shen Buyu saw Long Yu crying, she couldn't help but cry too.
Even without blood ties or childhood friendships, there are still people who are kind to you for no apparent reason.
How fortunate she is.
Finally, Long Yu was dragged off the stage by Si Jingxu, who grabbed her by the collar with one hand.
Wearing a corsage, Shen Yunqi laughed so hard he almost choked. "Big brother, has Brother Long Yu always been this chuunibyou (a Japanese term for someone with delusions of grandeur)?"
Shen Yanzhou rubbed his temples. "I had a bit when I was little, but it's much better now that I'm older."
“He’s a complete idiot,” He Run said mercilessly, “purely.”
Qi Feng glanced at the message Zhou Yixiao sent, "The girls went to play cards. Let's go, let's go play Longyu."
"Hey, Jingxu, Jingxu, let go, your brother can't breathe." Long Yu staggered a few steps.
"I'll strangle you, what are you crying for?" Si Jingxu couldn't help but swear.
“Hey,” Long Yu said, a little embarrassed, “the atmosphere was just right.”
Si Jingxu gritted his teeth, wanting to punch him.
"Don't worry, Jingxu. You need to know that I'm doing this entirely for the good of our child."
"What do you mean?" Si Jingxu glanced at him sideways. "Did my Buyu take advantage of you?"
“Does taking advantage count?” Long Yu waved his hand. “Think about it, if we become godbrother and godsister, when I marry your aunt, she won’t have to call you that. She can just call Xiaxia sister-in-law.”
Si Jingxu: ...
"You don't need to call me Uncle-in-law, just call me Brother like Bu Yu does."
Si Jingxu closed his eyes. Long Yu was an idiot, and He Run was absolutely right.
The girls soaked in hot springs and played mahjong. When they got hungry, they went to a banquet, and after they were full, they continued playing.
It's like a vacation.
The men pulled Long Yu along, each offering her a toast.
This round ends, then another round begins.
From that day on, everyone in Beijing's social circles knew that Miss Shen, who was so beloved by her family, now had an even more powerful and wealthy CEO, Mr. Long, as her backer.
He lived a more carefree life in silence.
When summer vacation arrived, she stayed at home packing her belongings for her trip to Italy.
"Go and take a look. Your brother has been living alone over there for many years. He probably wants you to visit his territory." Lan Xinyan helped her check her luggage.
“We agreed that we’d go to Italy for a month first, then go to France and England together, and come back before school starts,” Shen Buyu leaned against her mother. “I’ll bring you gifts when I come back.”
"What, you're already missing your mom even before you've left?" Lan Xinyan touched her daughter's face. "Go play, and bring us lots of gifts."
"Okay, Mom."
Shen Zhiye was even more worried than Lan Xinyan. His daughter had been gone for so long, and there was still Song Shuchen, who was eyeing him covetously. He felt uneasy about it.
But after learning that Si Jingxu would also be going, I felt much more at ease.
"Uncle Shen, don't worry, I will stay by Bu Yu's side at all times," Si Jingxu assured him repeatedly.
In that instant, Shen Zhiye found him much more pleasing to the eye.
The flight time of about eleven hours wasn't too unbearable.
After landing, a helicopter came to pick me up.
Nick, dressed in a flight suit, looked dashing and flamboyant. "Ciao~ my beautiful Silent Miss, please let me lead you on your first air journey in Italy."
"Can't you speak properly?" Mu Zi said with disgust. "Get out of here, I'll drive."
"NONONO~ Sister Muzi, this is my plane. You can fly yours back if you want." Nick bowed politely. "Please board, Miss Buyu."
Shen Buyu took Si Jingxu's hand and boarded the helicopter.
"Do you also have a helicopter pilot's license? I think I heard Nian Ke mention it," she asked Si Jingxu.
“Yes, you can take the test if you want, it’s very simple,” Si Jingxu helped her put on her headphones. “Are you tired? Lean on me.”
She wasn't tired, but this experience was quite novel for her.
This is where her brother lived for many years.
Her brother donated a lot of buildings so that she could visit her school; now it's her turn to see her brother's living environment.
Twenty minutes later, several helicopters landed on the helipad of a hilltop estate.
There were quite a few people around, some sitting and some standing, all of whom were very interested in Chen Buyu as he stepped off the plane.
“Don’t be afraid, Miss, we’re all on the same side.” Nick smiled and waved.
A cute blonde, blue-eyed toddler, holding a bouquet of roses, wobbled up to Shen Buyu and said, "Pretty, big sister, flowers, I love you."
