When it came time to eat, everyone wanted to sit next to Yu Yunzhi, but Shao Wenyan, as her boyfriend, couldn't compete with him at all.
Because they were all his elders, who would have thought that these ladies, who were once known as the most polite and graceful, would fight over a single position?
In the end, Grandma Shao and Mama Shao managed to secure the two seats on either side of Yu Yunzhi, while Shao Wenyan was successfully sidelined.
Grandma Shao and Mama Shao rushed to put food into Yu Yunzhi's bowl, and Yu Yunzhi's bowl was never empty. Before long, a small mound of food had been piled up in the bowl.
"Zhizhi, would you like to order that?" Mrs. Shao asked, pointing to a dish that was a little distance away from Yu Yunzhi.
She noticed that Yu Yunzhi only ate the food in front of her and the food they put on her plate; she didn't touch the food placed further away.
Mrs. Shao was referring to a plate of shrimp. Yu Yunzhi loved seafood, but the plate of shrimp was too far away from her, so she didn't touch it.
Besides, you have to peel the shrimp, and your fingers will get dirty later.
Just as Yu Yunzhi was about to shake her head, the empty plate in front of her was taken away and replaced with a plate full of peeled shrimp.
That person is Shao Wenyan.
Shao Wenyan was forced to sit next to his mother. As soon as the shrimp were served, he noticed them. Knowing that the little girl loved shrimp, he began to slowly peel the shrimp shells.
While peeling shrimp, she listened to their conversation and helped Yu Yunzhi out of a tight spot when she couldn't get back up.
Yu Yunzhi's eyes lit up when he saw the peeled, white shrimp.
She decided that she wouldn't be so fierce to him when settling the score later, for the sake of this plate of shrimp.
Yu Yunzhi ate very quietly, holding her fallen hair with one hand and slowly eating the glutinous rice balls in her bowl with a spoon in the other.
Shao Wenyan noticed that he walked behind Yu Yunzhi, took out the hairpin she used to tie her hair up halfway, and quickly put all her hair up and put it back in the hairpin.
After the New Year's Eve party, he specifically learned how to do it and can now smoothly tie a perfect hairpin hairstyle.
Everyone at the table was caught off guard by this unexpected display of affection.
Ruan Youqi was stunned when he saw it!
Is this really her brother? He's so attentive to girls, peeling shrimp for them and even knowing how to style their hair!
No, no! It must be an act! It must be to mislead her grandparents and uncle and aunt! To put their minds at ease.
After dinner, Shao Wenyan was called to the study by the old man, leaving Yu Yunzhi alone on the sofa downstairs to talk with Grandma Shao and the others.
A circle was formed with Yu Yunzhi at the center.
Grandma Shao even took out her phone to show Yu Yunzhi her super topic level. Yu Yunzhi was greatly shocked. Grandma Shao is really trendy. Her super topic level has reached level 12.
I have checked in for 128 consecutive days.
Yu Yunzhi became more and more relaxed in this atmosphere, and she could tell that Grandma Shao and the others really liked her.
How could the atmosphere be bad when such a group of highly educated individuals, who possess both high emotional intelligence and intellectual intelligence, deliberately indulge and guide you?
But as she listened to their conversation, Ruan Youqi became increasingly restless. She wanted to take advantage of her brother's absence to secretly bring the pretty older sister out and tell her the truth!
Her brother will be coming down soon, then she won't have a chance!
Fortunately, Grandma Shao suddenly said she wanted to take Yu Yunzhi out for a walk. Ruan Youqi volunteered to take her sister Yunzhi, saying that it was too cold outside and that Grandma and the others shouldn't go. She said that the young people would have more to talk about if they went out together.
Grandma Shao and the others were helpless. Ruan Youqi was not only the youngest member of the family, but also the youngest member of their generation. Everyone doted on her.
So when she said she wanted to go out alone with Yu Yunzhi, everyone agreed.
It's true that having the elders around makes people feel uncomfortable, so it would be better to let Youyou take them out for a stroll instead.
Before leaving, Shao's mother went upstairs to get a thick white down jacket for Yu Yunzhi to wear before letting her out.
She's wearing too little clothing; even if it's for the sake of looking good, she shouldn't wear such thin clothes.
Shao's mother also told Yu Yunzhi to wear comfortable clothes in the future, that they would like her no matter what she looked like, and that her health was the most important thing.
Ruan Youqi finally had a chance to be alone with the beautiful older sister, and excitedly jumped around while holding Yu Yunzhi's arm.
The Chinese garden at dusk also had a unique charm. Ruan Youqi led Yu Yunzhi along the long corridor to what she considered to be the best spot.
The courtyard features traditional lanterns and wall lamps that emit soft light, creating a scene of swaying branches and winding paths leading to secluded spots.
Yu Yunzhi and Ruan Youqi each sat on a swing, swaying slowly and chatting idly.
The 15-year-old girl's imagination ran wild, and she asked all sorts of strange questions, ranging from curiosity about life to worries about her studies...
"Sister, you're so pretty, do you have a lot of suitors?"
"Hmm..." Yu Yunzhi looked thoughtful, tilting his head and leaning against one of the swing ropes.
"Not many, maybe two or three, three or four?" Yu Yunzhi wasn't sure either. She spent her university years in the practice room and hardly ever socialized with boys, let alone had anyone pursue her.
She was dazzlingly beautiful in junior and senior high school, and even boys who liked her didn't dare to confess their feelings.
Later, after she entered the entertainment industry, several people pursued her, but none of them worked out.
"Was it my brother who pursued you, or were you the one who pursued my brother?"
"He pursued me!" Yu Yunzhi answered quickly, blurting it out.
He was the one who pursued her!
Upon hearing the answer, Ruan Youqi's heart sank even further. Oh no, it seems his brother might really just be looking for a scapegoat.
"Sister, was my brother your first love?"
"yes."
Ruan Youqi's expression was now quite serious. The swing had stopped swaying; she was in no mood for anything. How was she supposed to tell the pretty older sister about the situation? That her brother didn't like girls and was just using her as a shield…
"Sister, I have to tell you something very, very important! Although you might be very sad, a swift and decisive approach will ensure that the next one is better!"
Yu Yunzhi was completely bewildered. Are kids these days so unpredictable? She couldn't understand a word they were saying.
"What I want to say is that my brother doesn't like girls! He said it himself, he doesn't like girls. He's just using you as a shield to stop his aunt and uncle from pressuring him to get married. He doesn't like you at all!"
Ruan Youqi poured everything out in one go, and felt a little better after saying it.
