Chapter 371: Getting to Know the Young Master

~7 min read 1,306 words

Wang Sicong was mainly curious about Shen Yan's family background and was casually probing for details. According to his introduction, he himself had grown up abroad, had just returned from studying at New York University in the United States last month, and was currently unemployed.

Shen Yan did not hide anything either; as long as someone had the intention, the information on the surface could be found with a simple check. He said his hometown was Wencheng, Zhe Province, and he was currently a freshman in Hangzhou.

"So you're only 19; I'm three years older than you."

Upon their first meeting, Wang Sicong did not ask too deeply, but instead teased Shen Yan for bringing a girl out to enjoy life during class hours.

"Your girlfriend is so pretty, did you also trick her into coming from school?"

Hearing Wang Sicong say that, the exquisitely made-up beauty beside Wu Yue'er could not help but pout, while Wu Yue'er lay on a lounge chair, her thighs crossed, looking at Shen Yan with a charming smile.

"Does she need to be tricked? She insisted on coming out with me."

Wang Sicong laughed: "Doesn't that just prove your charm is great, and the girl can't bear to leave you?"

Wu Yue'er gave Shen Yan plenty of face in public; not only was she not annoyed, but she raised her hands above her head to form a heart shape and boldly declared her love: "Hubby, I love you."

Shen Yan smiled helplessly, stood still, and swung his right hand sharply.

"Bang!"

The ball landed at Wang Sicong's feet again at a tricky angle.

Score!

Wang Sicong could not help but give Shen Yan a thumbs up; he was incredibly awesome.

It was just unclear whether he was praising the person or the shot.

Exhaling a breath of stale air, Shen Yan changed the subject: "Since you studied in the United States and like playing games, have you ever played the most popular game there, LOL?"

As soon as these words were out, Wang Sicong became as excited as if he had been injected with adrenaline: "How could I not have played it? That's my favorite game. Is this game so famous that it has already spread to the country?"

Shen Yan indicated that was not the case; he just liked to use a VPN and thought this game was very interesting. At this, Wang Sicong stopped playing tennis.

He leaned in and asked Shen Yan if he had played ranked, and what his rank score was.

He himself had a rank score of 1750, which was quite a bit stronger than the average person.

He could take Shen Yan to climb the ranks together.

Hearing this, Wu Yue'er could not help but cover her mouth and giggle, her delicate body trembling slightly; the sight of her trying to hold back laughter left Wang Sicong confused.

"Girl, did I say something wrong?"

Wu Yue'er felt that this young master was quite easy to talk to, so she said straightforwardly: "Shen Yan is a top-tier expert at gaming, with a rank score of 2100. It's not certain who would be carrying whom."

"Really? Shen Yan, you're that good?"

Wang Sicong was dumbfounded. Shen Yan responded modestly, and Wang Sicong looked at Wu Yue'er again: "Judging by your tone, you play this game too?"

"That's a must. My rank score is actually a hundred points higher than Shen Yan's." Wu Yue'er raised her eyebrows triumphantly.

Now Wang Sicong's gaming addiction was completely ignited. It was rare to meet two like-minded people in the country, so he decisively invited the two to play together.

Approaching five o'clock, Shen Yan glanced at the gradually darkening sky and politely declined: "We have things to do tonight. We can add each other as friends first and play together when we have time."

The beauty beside him could not sit still either and said in a pinched voice: "Brother Cong, didn't you say you were going to show me your house? Don't leave me behind."

Wang Sicong had previously felt this girl was not bad and met his aesthetic standards, but now he felt everything about her was off. Not only was her figure and appearance not as good as Wu Yue'er's, but she also did not know how to act coquettishly or give a man face.

The key was that she did not even know how to play games; she was purely a vase.

It was tasteless to eat, yet a pity to discard.

But since Shen Yan had already said so, he could not force it.

After adding Shen Yan's QQ, he wanted to add Wu Yue'er's, but Wu Yue'er held onto Shen Yan's arm and said indifferently: "Just add my hubby's QQ; we always play games together."

Wang Sicong gave Shen Yan a thumbs up again, deeply admiring Shen Yan's way of managing his girl.

At the same time, Wang Sicong appreciated Wu Yue'er's personality more and more; if she were not already taken, he would have fought for her no matter what.

Taking such a girl out was truly a face-saving experience.

Afterwards, the two played tennis again. Wang Sicong's stamina was not great, and before long, he was panting for breath, so Wu Yue'er decisively took the racket.

Wu Yue'er, who had a masculine spirit in her bones, possessed a talent for sports that ordinary women could hardly reach. Despite being new to tennis, she quickly grasped the knack of it.

She accompanied Shen Yan in a casual match in a decent manner.

Such a situation stimulated Wang Sicong fiercely once again. He asked Wu Yue'er: "Girl, do you have any sisters, or close friends with a similar personality? I really admire girls of your type."

Wu Yue'er focused on swinging her racket and said without looking back: "You just returned to the country, so you might not know, but there are people with my personality everywhere in the Northeast."

Wang Sicong took it for truth and prepared to go back and learn more about Northeast girls.

In the evening, Shen Yan took Wu Yue'er to eat a delicious Republican-era meal at The Bund, and afterwards, they strolled along the Huangpu River. The evening breeze was gentle and refreshing.

Wu Yue'er held Shen Yan's arm and asked curiously: "Hubby, what is that Wang Sicong's background? He lives in such a big villa just after returning to the country."

"You know Wanda Plaza, right? That's his family's."

"Ah?" Wu Yue'er's small mouth opened in surprise, and she asked Shen Yan if it was true. Shen Yan said nonchalantly: "Why would I lie to you? He was born with a silver spoon in his mouth, with tens of billions in family assets waiting for him to inherit."

Wu Yue'er pouted in dissatisfaction and exclaimed that heaven was truly unfair.

Why are some people born in Rome, while others are born as beasts of burden?

Shen Yan's tone was full of mockery: "He seems to like you quite a bit. How about it, do you regret not adding his QQ?"

"As if!" Wu Yue'er went behind Shen Yan and jumped onto his back.

"I've latched onto you for this life, so be prepared."

Her voice was charming and soft, making Shen Yan laugh. Shen Yan said why was it always him carrying her; if she had the ability, she should carry him once. Wu Yue'er did not say a word, walked around to Shen Yan's front, squatted down, and patted her shoulders, signaling "Come on."

Shen Yan actually climbed on. Huniu had a tall and sturdy build, so carrying Shen Yan was no problem. She supported Shen Yan's thighs and walked slowly through the breeze, amidst the neon lights and bustling city.

Pedestrians around stopped to watch, pointing at Shen Yan.

But neither of them minded.
