"Sister Minghuan? I know her. May I ask who you are?"
Upon hearing Xia Wenxi say they knew each other, the "Urban Beauty" smiled even more brightly, like a spring peach blossom blooming in the snow.
“I knew I wasn’t mistaken. I’ve seen your photos on Senior Sister Minghuan’s WeChat Moments. I’m her junior sister. My name is Su Yinyin.”
The girl was very cute and enthusiastic. Xia Wenxi knew that they had a good relationship when she heard her tone of affection when she mentioned Sister Minghuan. Moreover, she had also heard Xia Wensheng say before that when she went to Sister Minghuan's house, she also went to her teacher's house and met Sister Minghuan's senior and junior brothers and sisters.
Xia Wenxi then introduced herself to her, saying, "My name is Xia Wenxi, and this is my boyfriend, Lin Shen."
“I know, I know, I’ve seen your brother at Teacher Su’s house.”
The man who was with Su Yinyin hadn't come forward at first, but Xia Wenxi wondered if she was mistaken, because it seemed that he walked forward after she introduced Lin Shen.
“Chengjing, do you remember Minghuan, the senior sister who works in the Fan City Orchestra that I told you about last time? I didn’t expect to meet Minghuan’s friend here today.”
"Of course I remember. You always put your senior sister Minghuan on the sidelines. I don't know if you came to Fan City to see me or your senior sister."
The man affectionately patted Su Yinyin's head, then greeted Xia Wenxi and Lin Shen.
"It's a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Lin. I didn't expect to run into you here. I'm Yin Chengjing."
Su Yinyin asked in surprise, "You two know each other?"
She thought it was already a very coincidental thing that she met Minghuan's boyfriend's sister here, but she didn't expect that her boyfriend would know her boyfriend.
We've met a few times before.
Yin Chengjing shook hands with Lin Shen, then extended his hand to Xia Wenxi, "Hello, Miss Xia. I heard your name earlier. Is Chairman Xia Wensheng your brother?"
"Yes, Xia Wensheng is my brother."
Xia Wenxi thought to herself that the other party was probably also in business, so it was normal that he had met Xia Wensheng and Lin Shen several times at various banquets and meetings. After all, Fan City was not short of all kinds of CEOs.
Since their goals were different and they weren't close enough to have a meal together, they said goodbye and went their separate ways.
The first thing Xia Wenxi did after walking away was to take out her phone and text Minghuan, telling her about her encounter with Su Yinyin. Su Yinyin did the same, excitedly telling Minghuan that she had met an acquaintance on the mountain and asking her to guess who it was.
Minghuan was off work this afternoon and didn't go to the orchestra.
She received messages from both of them almost simultaneously, so there was no question of guessing.
"What a coincidence, Minghuan! Your junior sister's boyfriend happens to know my brother and Lin Shen."
It was too cold to type properly outside, so Xia Wenxi saw that there was no one around, only trees and snow, and she wasn't worried about being overheard, so she simply sent a voice message.
After sending the message, he asked Lin Shen, "Is that Mr. Yin someone who runs a company like you?"
Unexpectedly, Xia Wenxi guessed wrong this time. Lin Shen shook his head and said no, "The Yin family is not in business, they are in politics."
Lin Shen lowered his voice and told Xia Wenxi about a position, "It's not a high position, but it's very important. I've met him a few times before, having attended several drinking parties with his father."
Businesses in a city, especially large ones, are major taxpayers and naturally know many city leaders.
When Minghuan heard what Xia Wenxi said, she remembered what Xia Wensheng had told her after she left her teacher's house last time.
After that, she tried to subtly inquire, but the conclusion she came to was that her junior sister and her boyfriend had a very good relationship, and there was nothing wrong with what that person did.
She comforted herself, thinking that she was probably overthinking things. No matter how good her relationship with her junior sister was, she couldn't interfere in her love life.
Today, when she heard Wenxi talking about Su Yinyin's boyfriend, she worried that what Wenxi had said before might be true... but now she definitely wouldn't say anything.
Putting myself in her shoes, I knew she wasn't happy when An Yun mentioned her relationship with Wen Sheng.
Minghuan thought of An Yun and sighed inwardly.

When Xia Wenxi's back started to sweat slightly, she wanted to go back. "I really got my fill of snow today."
As the two were about to turn back, Lin Shen stopped. Xia Wenxi looked at him, puzzled, and watched as he took out his phone and snapped a picture.
Seeing that his phone camera was pointing downwards, she glanced down at it and understood.
Two sets of footprints, one large and one small, stretched far into the distance from where they were standing. No one had ever walked this path before; only their footprints were visible on the snow.
"Should I post this on WeChat Moments?"
"Um."
Xia Wenxi then took his hand and leaned over to look at his phone.
Lin Shen's WeChat Moments post was simple: "[Watching the snow and taking a walk with Wenxi.]"
After sending the message, they put away their phones and walked back hand in hand, leaving two new sets of footprints next to the previous ones.
"You're subtly showing off your love."
When Xia Wenxi walked, she deliberately lifted her feet high and then stomped down heavily, making her footprints deep and clear. Lin Shen smiled and walked slowly in sync with her steps.
Hearing Xia Wenxi's words, Lin Shen said, "It's not subtle, it's blatant."
"That's not what you call dazzling."
Xia Wenxi took out her phone, intending to demonstrate to Lin Shen what "bright and blatant" meant.
She held up her phone and said to Lin Shen, "Look up and look at the camera."
I took three photos in a row and chose the best one to post on my WeChat Moments.
"Now that's what I call dazzlingly bright."
Lin Shen didn't say anything. Instead, he opened his WeChat Moments, saved the photo that Xia Wenxi had just posted, and set it as his phone's wallpaper in front of her.
The room was very warm because of the heating. The first thing Xia Wenxi did when she came in was to take off all her cumbersome hats, scarves, and down jackets.
"Shall we stay indoors this afternoon? I think it'll be fine to just watch the snow from inside."
The two arrived yesterday afternoon and planned to return to the city the day after tomorrow. They still had a whole day tomorrow, but Xia Wenxi had already seen the heavy snow she most wanted to see. There was nothing else to do in the mountains, so staying for two or three days would be enough.
"good."
Lin Shen works every day and rarely has such a leisurely and peaceful time. Moreover, as long as he is with Wen Xi, he finds it interesting no matter where he is.
It was warm and cozy, and it was easy to feel sleepy after eating. Xia Wenxi and Lin Shen chatted for a while and then took a nap together.
The two slept soundly for the first time in a real sense, without a trace of romantic thoughts.
Xia Wenxi is a natural sleeper, while Lin Shen didn't sleep well last night and couldn't resist the drowsiness at noon today. However, in his half-awake state, he still remembered to shake out the blankets to cover the two of them.
