Chapter 403 You have gossip but won't share it with me?
After taking photos with everyone else, Shen Buyu specifically pulled Song Jingyi aside and said, "Brother, let's take more photos."
Song Jingyi, who usually dresses casually, wore a black suit to attend his sister's graduation ceremony today. He also covered up the tattoos on the back of his neck and the back of his hands with tape.
"elder brother."
"Um."
“Take off the tape. I like your tattoo,” Shen Buyu said, bending down to peel the tape off the back of his hand. Her movements were gentle and careful, as if she was afraid of hurting him. “I think it looks great. My brother is so cool and handsome. My classmates will only be envious and jealous of me when they see it.”
Song Jingyi looked down at her with tender eyes.
After she finished, she raised her hand and ripped off the tape on the back of her neck with a 'whoosh'. "The part that will make them envious and jealous hasn't even started yet."
“Let’s take more photos, brother. We weren’t together when we were kids, so no matter what we do in the future, we’ll take more photos than others to make up for what we didn’t have.”
The girl's soft, sweet words brought tears to Song Jingyi's eyes.
It's strange, this child, with just a casual remark, can always touch the softest part of his heart.
"Okay," he said in a hoarse voice.
He and his sister will have many, many photo albums in the future.
They will gradually catch up with, and even surpass, the Shen family.
"Brother! Miss!" Acheng, wearing the same suit as Song Jingyi, came over happily, "Take a picture with me too!"
Behind him were Chen Mo, who was wearing a tie, and Mu Zi, who was wearing a red shirt.
After taking a few pictures, Chen Mo took advantage of Shen Buyu chatting with someone to walk up to Song Jingyi and whispered, "Old Song and his wife are here too. They were outside and watched the whole thing through binoculars."
Song Jingyi hummed in agreement, "Don't let Xiaoyu know."
In the past two years, these two haven't appeared in front of the younger sister much.
At first, he thought they were just getting back to their own romantic relationships.
It was later discovered that they had been keeping an eye on their sister's activities.
Sometimes he would quietly appear by the roadside and watch her from inside his car.
Since he didn't show up or cause trouble, Song Jingyi didn't interfere.
He was afraid that if he interfered even in this matter, Song Shuchen, with his temperament, might actually do something like forcibly taking his sister away.
He wasn't afraid of trouble, but he was worried that his sister would be traumatized.
He wouldn't tell his sister any of this.
Even though they are their biological parents, they have only themselves to blame and deserve what they have done.
Little Fish is so kind; knowing they've done this so many times, she can't help but feel pity for them.
Who knows, I might even have to sit down and have a meal with them.
They got off too easily.
"Buyu," Si Jingxu pulled Shen Buyu, who had just finished her work, over and said, "Have a drink of water."
"Brother Jingxu, was your graduation this lively too?" Shen Buyu asked, his forehead covered in sweat.
Si Jingxu took out a handkerchief and wiped her sweat, saying, "No, I'm not as popular as you. I only have a few close friends."
"I'm so happy," Shen Buyu said, taking a couple of sips of warm water before her gaze suddenly locked onto a certain spot. "Hey, isn't that Huo Qingci? What's he doing here?"
"Who cares about that old man?" Si Jingxu blocked her gaze. "You've finally graduated, can't you take a few days off to rest?"
Shen Buyu knew he was referring to his tireless practice of French.
"Yes," she assured, "I'll take a few days off to spend some quality time with you."
"You have to keep your word. You can't trick me into becoming your French tutor." Si Jingxu said as he used a small fan to cool her down.
"Okay, okay." Shen Buyu replied casually, raising his hand to push him aside. "Huo Qingci came for Qin Nianke, huh? Oh, and you're going to talk to someone else."
Even with his neck stretched out, Shen Buyu couldn't hear anything. He wanted to go over, but he was afraid of delaying Qin Nianke's business.
I was so anxious I was practically tearing my hair out.
"Want to know?" Si Jingxu blocked her way again.
Shen Buyu looked up and saw the smile on his lips. "Oh, you have some gossip you're not going to share with me!"
After saying that, he turned and left, saying, "I'm going to find Brother Qi Feng. He said there's no gossip in Beijing that he doesn't know."
"I haven't said a word yet." Si Jingxu, both amused and exasperated, suddenly stepped in front of Shen Buyu to block her path. "Don't go."
Shen Buyu looked wary. "I knew it. You're either asking me to kiss you or hug you, but I don't want that."
"..." Si Jingxu hesitated. Was he usually so roguish? "No need this time, I'll just say it directly."
Shen Buyu listened to Si Jing's account and his eyes widened in surprise.
"What?! The blind date that Nianke's mother found for her, a person of similar social standing, is Huo Qingci?!" Her voice rose in surprise. "Doesn't Auntie think he's too old?!"
“Save your voice,” Si Jingxu said, unscrewing the lid of the thermos again. “In their eyes, Huo Qingci has no flaws except for his age. Compared to his excellence, his flaws are insignificant.”
He comes from a good family and is successful and hardworking.
Deputy Director Si Huo, a reliable and hardworking translator with no negative news, is the perfect son-in-law in the eyes of Qin Nianke's parents.
Shen Buyu's lips twitched. "Why didn't I hear anything to say?"
"Qin Nian has no idea that she has blocked Huo Qingci."
Shen Buyu blinked. "I really want to know what they're talking about."
“Miss, I’ll go.” Acheng suddenly poked his head out from the side. “There’s a tree over there, I can climb it. I’m best at this kind of thing.”
“Come back,” Shen Buyu quickly called out. “Never mind, this is their privacy. If Nianke wants me to know, she doesn’t need to ask.”
Qin Nianke returned home alone just as she was getting ready to go out for dinner with her family.
Her face was full of worries.
Shen Buyu leaned closer and said, "Nianke, let's go eat together."
"Silence, I have something to tell you..." Her silence lasted only three seconds.
Qin Nianke pulled Shen Buyu into her car. "Huo Qingci just arrived."
Chen Buyu: "And then?"
"I just found out that the blind date I pretended to have a stomachache to avoid a couple of days ago was actually him."
"Ah... then what did he come here for? To criticize your stomach problems?" Shen Buyu asked.
“He said, he said… he wanted me to have a fake marriage with him, to be a couple in name only.”
Silent: ...
She witnessed scenes that could only be seen in novels.
"Can you help me analyze whether this is feasible or not?" Qin Nianke asked.
What do you think?
"Me? I don't care. You know, ever since my mom got sick once, she's not only afraid of dying, but she's also worried that I won't find a reliable marriage partner."
Family background is no longer a priority.
She would introduce any man she heard of who was not too bad off but had good character to her daughter.
"Parents' hearts are always full of love and worry," Shen Buyu sighed. "Auntie is afraid that if something happens to her, others will bully you."
Therefore, we only consider character.
