Chapter 256 Shi Shi meets her parents, the popular "Startling by Each Step"



Shanghai Pudong, University Town Wearing sunglasses, Wei Yang led his aunt Wei Xia and uncle Wu Jun to look around, and the two could not help but nod with satisfaction.

"This store is good, the location and layout are great, how much is the monthly rent?"

"Give it to me as you see fit."

Wei Yang lit a cigarette for Wu Jun, who suddenly had an idea: "You bought it?"

“Yeah, real estate investment.”

Investing in shops can also be considered a type of real estate investment, so Wei Yang naturally would not miss it and bought some shops.

It’s just that the shops are relatively new, so Wei Yang only buys valuable shops. In addition, there was no purchase restriction on residential properties in Shanghai before, so the number of shops he owns is far less than that of residential properties.

When it comes to shop investment, university towns have always been a good direction as they are easy to rent and sell, so Wei Yang has invested in several university towns in Shanghai.

This time, he coaxed his aunt's family to open a restaurant in Shanghai. Since the restaurant's dishes are priced more like home cuisine, it is more suitable for a university town. Wei Yang picked out some and decided to buy this shop.

Considering the care that his aunt had given Wei Yang since he was a child, it actually didn't matter if he gave the shop to her, not to mention the rent. But he knew that his aunt would definitely not want it.

As expected, after Wei Xia knew that the shop belonged to Wei Yang, although she did not propose to move out and change to another one, she insisted on paying the rent according to the market price.

Wei Yang didn't argue with her. After he took out the shop, he had no intention of buying it back.

In the future, when his cousin’s birthday or wedding comes, he will transfer the house to his aunt, and he doesn’t care about the rent.

The shop was settled, and Wei Yang had also found the right people with all the connections. The savings of his aunt's family over the years were enough to open the shop, and if it was not enough, Wei Yang could still borrow money from him.

According to Wei Yang, he actually intended to invest, or to share the financial pressure with his aunt, but Wei Xia was afraid of cheating him. It was hard to say whether a home-style restaurant would make a profit or a loss in the future, so she didn't let him invest.

Wei Yang is quite optimistic about the future of the restaurant. It has a good location, affordable prices, and large portions of dishes. His aunt is also an old hand at opening a restaurant, so as long as he can grasp the taste, it will not be difficult to make money.

He brought his aunt's family here to enjoy their lives, not to cheat them. He would not do anything without confidence.

"Okay, we've finished looking around the store. Let's take a look at the house I built for you, and then we'll eat."

Wei Yang gave the key to his aunt first, and then took the couple to a nearby community, where he bought a house of more than 140 square meters, which was big enough for a family of four.

Wei Xia wanted to ask for rent, but Wei Yang was very unhappy: "It's fine if it's a shop, but business is business. You're scolding me for asking for money for this house. I didn't tell you when I was a child, but I lived in your house for three years in high school, eating, drinking, and taking things from you. You asked me for money?"

Wei Xia didn't say anything else, but just said with emotion: "Yangyang has grown up, and my aunt is enjoying the happiness with him."

"Just enjoy yourself. Just open the store as usual. It doesn't matter whether you make a profit or a loss. Don't work too hard. You don't need to worry about my younger brothers and sisters. When my parents come, you four can take care of your health, have fun every day, and I will make money."

Wei Yang hugged Wei Xia and felt very proud. He earned so much money just to make his family live a better life.

If his parents and eldest aunt can live out the rest of their lives happily and peacefully, his life will be half complete...

After looking at the house, Wei Xia wanted to cook, but Wei Yang stopped her and said, "Let's go out to eat. I'll just take you to meet someone."

"Who is it?"

"You'll see when you get there."

Wei Yang drove his aunt and uncle to a residential area which was not too far away. When he opened the door and entered the house, he saw a beautiful and quiet girl coming towards him with some reserve.

Before Wei Yang could introduce her, Wei Xia recognized her: "Are you... Ruoxi?"

Wei Yang was amused: "You also watch "Startling by Each Step"?"

"Look, this drama is so popular, especially your sister, she watched it on TV and then watched it online, she really liked it..."

Wei Yang reminded: "Liu Shishi."

Liu Shishi smiled gently: "Hello, auntie, I'm Wei Yang's girlfriend, you can just call me Shishi."

When Wei Xia heard the word "girlfriend", she paused slightly and then continued to reply with a smile.

"Shi Shi, she likes Shi Shi very much, and it seems she has even joined some fan club."

Uncle Wu Jun's mentality was not so stable. He secretly glanced at Wei Yang several times with a complicated look.

If he remembered correctly, when the couple first came to Shanghai, they saw Wei Yang making all the arrangements by himself and asked Xiao Zhao about it. Wei Yang's answer was that the latter was on a business trip.

In other words, Xiao Zhao has not broken up with his girlfriend, and he has a new girlfriend, Liu Shishi.

Fortunately, Wu Jun usually watches the news about his nephew. When he was in high school, he had a similar experience. He watched his wife talking to Liu Shishi while he was drinking water as a background.

Anyway, he is not his own son, so it is not his uncle's turn to worry about Wei Yang's love life...

Aunt Wei Xia was chatting happily with Liu Shishi, holding hands tightly and even kept picking up food for Liu Shishi while they were eating.

As mentioned before, Wei Xia had suffered a lot as a widow in her early years, and later she opened her own shop. She was shrewd, strong-willed, and resolute, so he didn't like a niece/daughter-in-law who was too smart. He preferred a girl like Liu Shishi who had a calm personality and was not too scheming, and felt that she was suitable for living with.

Seeing the two of them chatting happily, Wei Yang felt relieved. His mother liked Xiao Zhao and his aunt liked Shi Shi.

Each of them gets what they need, which is fair. Besides, they both have supporters, so they won't make a fuss about him getting married...

After the meal, Wei Xiafei took Liu Shishi to buy a gift, but was stopped by Wei Yang, who explained with a smile.

"We are close anyway, so we can meet often in the future. There is plenty of time. Shishi has been busy with work recently. I took time out today to come and see you. I will leave tomorrow. You should leave some time for me to talk to her."

"Yes, yes."

The eldest aunt suddenly realized that although she didn't care about the entertainment industry, she still had some basic common sense because of her nephew.

"You guys are busy, don't worry about me and your uncle. I've memorized the route, let's take a taxi."

Wei Xia grabbed Wu Jun and walked away, refusing to let Wei Yang see her off, as if she was afraid of delaying the birth of her nephew's grandson.

Liu Shishi blushed so much that Wei Yang didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but he still went downstairs to help get a taxi. He told the driver the address and asked them to call him when they got home before going back.

After he left, Wu Jun looked at Wei Xia, hesitating, "Wife, Yang Yang... and that Xiao Zhao, it's too messy."

Wei Xia actually had some ideas in mind and planned to find an opportunity to talk to her nephew, but in front of her husband, she still cared about the reputation of the Wei family.

"The child is old enough to know what's going on. Let's not interfere too much."

Wu Jun thought that Wei Xia supported her nephew and revealed some of her inner thoughts, so he laughed.

"This kid is really good. One for each family, so happy and romantic."

Wei Xia frowned and her voice turned cold: "What's the matter, are you envious?"

"Of course... I'm not envious. I'm already old and have a son and a daughter. Why would I envy this? Don't think too much about it."

Wu Jun had been controlled by Wei Xia all his life, so he decisively admitted his mistake, and Wei Xia looked better now.

The Wei family has a history of double standards. Wei Xia may not necessarily approve of the tricks played by her eldest nephew, but she won't react too strongly.

If her husband dared to follow suit, she wouldn't mind being a widow again...

On the other side, Liu Shishi was a little nervous when she saw Wei Yang coming back.

"Did your aunt say anything to you? She has no other opinion of me, right? Also, don't think too much about what you just said."

Liu Shishi was worried that she would not perform well when meeting the parents for the first time. She also blamed Wei Yang for notifying her in too short a time, leaving her with insufficient preparation and having to rush into the meeting.

"Don't worry, she likes you very much. She kept praising you when she came downstairs."

Wei Yang was not trying to comfort Liu Shishi. Wei Xia really liked her, but Liu Shishi didn't quite believe it.

"But I think my performance just now was average. I didn't talk much, I was sullen and just listened to what my aunt said. Oh, I had prepared for it before, but how come I forgot everything when I was nervous when I met someone?"

Liu Shishi was a little annoyed. She specifically asked someone and found out that many female elders like girls who are sweet-mouthed and good at talking.

But this is precisely her weakness, due to her personality. It's okay when you're familiar with them, but it's really difficult for her to communicate enthusiastically with others when they meet for the first time, let alone her boyfriend's elders.

"That's great. My aunt likes you just like this."

Liu Shishi's performance was just right, she was sincere, polite, quiet and gentle. If she had been too active and enthusiastic, she might have lost points.

After being comforted by him, Liu Shishi felt relieved to some extent, but she still felt that Wei Yang notified her too hastily, otherwise he should have prepared a gift or something.

Wei Yang had no choice. With his aunt coming, his parents would probably move away soon or come to Shanghai to live for a long time intermittently.

Her mother has been won over by Xiao Zhao, and now he wants her to be his daughter-in-law. Wei Yang might as well take advantage of the time difference to let Liu Shishi meet her aunt first and win her support, as he is afraid of some unexpected changes in the future.

"We will be a family from now on, and we will visit each other often. Gifts are a token of our thoughts, and we can always come back to buy you something in time."

"Oh well."

Liu Shishi was convinced. Although she was a little dissatisfied with Wei Yang for notifying her too late, she was still very happy and touched that Wei Yang took her to meet the elders.

She has been with Wei Yang for several years and knows the status of her aunt Wei Xia, who is no different from her biological mother. In a sense, she can be considered to have met the parents.

Thinking of this, Liu Shishi's eyes looked at Wei Yang much softer, and she hugged Wei Yang tightly. Wei Yang felt warm in his heart, and he carried him to the bedroom like a princess.

I ate a bit too much just now, which is not good for an artist. I need to do some exercise to help digest the food...

In the evening, Wei Yang cooked something for dinner. The two of them sat on the sofa hugging each other, watching TV and chatting about "Startling by Each Step".

This drama has just finished airing, and the ratings are slightly better than the previous one, but it has not broken 2. The average ratings are around 1.8, which is much worse than the drama of the same theme, "Palace Lock Heart Jade".

But it has been said many times before, ratings are not everything, let alone just the premiere ratings.

Whether a drama becomes a hit or not depends on its overall performance and influence.

Although the ratings of "Scarlet Heart" are far inferior to "The East Palace", "Come and See You", and even "Palace Lock Heart".

However, its market share has always remained between 6% and 7%, and almost entirely exceeded 7% in the second half. The finale's audience share even exceeded 10%, significantly ahead of TV dramas of the same period, which also led to it dominating related discussions about TV dramas of the same period.

Since its premiere, "Startling by Each Step" has topped the Weibo topic list every day, and Baidu Tieba has been flooded with comments from netizens.

Within three days of its premiere, Baidu search volume for "Startling by Each Step" reached 5.7 million times, and it has continued to rise since then.

The average number of Weibo fans of many leading actors has increased by hundreds of thousands to millions, and the most popular Liu Shishi has over 8 million fans.

You know, Liu Shishi is not particularly keen on managing her Weibo, so her ability to attract fans on Weibo is not as good as that of other young actresses of the same level.

But even so, with 8 million fans now, he is considered to be in the first tier on Weibo, which is entirely the result of multiple hit dramas and popular roles.

Considering the comprehensive indexes such as national popularity, word of mouth, etc., without considering the special case of Liu Tianxian, as far as the 85 flowers are concerned, Liu Shishi can now be the leader.

Even Liu Tianxian had some little lions starting to clamor.

Xiao Liu Tianxian is the past tense, now someone should be Xiao Liu Shishi……
