Chapter 504: Who is the Older Sister and Who is the Younger Sister

Near six o'clock, the sky over Hangzhou began to show signs of darkening; Zijin Road was wreathed in smoke and fire, and the aroma of various delicacies lingered in the air, making one's mouth water.

Compass Milk Tea Shop.

Under the bright incandescent lights, Shen Yan looked at the pair of sisters before him, whose figures, attire, and appearances were almost identical in every way, and he was momentarily stunned on the spot.

Holy crap! This pair of sisters really knows how to play.

Matching shoulder-length short hair, pink-brown strands arranged in a chic, layered style, and most importantly, the sisters had even changed into identical purple cinched-waist dresses.

I have to say, purple really has a lot of charm.

Shen Yan shook his head; no, what kind of messy thoughts was he having at a time like this?

The two women were very satisfied with his reaction, and after exchanging a glance, they couldn't help but burst into laughter.

A playful glint flashed in Yin Yezi's eyes as she deliberately lowered her voice and asked, "Shen Yan, guess which one of us is the older sister and which is the younger sister?"

Beside her, Chen Shanni stood there with a calm, unruffled expression, looking pretty as she waited to see if Shen Yan could tell them apart.

Shen Yan scanned back and forth between the two women's faces; to be honest, he still hadn't figured out Yin Yezi's personality—calling her cold didn't quite seem right.

Analyzing from the perspective of Chen Shanni's personality.

In the past, Chen Shanni definitely wouldn't have been so mischievous, but now that she was teased and pranked by Shen Yan from time to time, it was normal for her to occasionally retaliate with some dark-bellied, silly antics.

Fortunately, there was a difference in the sisters' skin condition.

One face was smooth and delicate to the extreme, just like a peeled egg, while the other face was full of collagen, rich with a youthful aura.

Observing closely, Shen Yan soon recognized that the one speaking to him was Yin Yezi.

Chen Shanni was snickering on the right.

He deliberately pointed at Yin Yezi and said, "You look the most punchable, you must be Shanni."

Upon hearing this, the women burst into loud laughter; Yin Yezi was laughing so hard she was out of breath, while only Chen Shanni had her cheeks puffed up like balls.

She limp-handedly pinched Shen Yan's neck and scolded, "Make yourself clear, who exactly is punchable?"

"I said it just now, and I was pointing at Yezi's face when I said it."

Having prepared early, Shen Yan immediately smoothed his rhetoric back over.

"Hahaha!"

Now the others laughed even more joyfully.

Yin Yezi stood frozen on the spot, her brain unable to process the turn of events.

???

So Shen Yan meant that her face looked punchable?

Although she knew Shen Yan was joking, she was still very annoyed and really wanted to hit someone.

Chen Shanni took her arm and soothed, "Don't mind it, Yezi, Shen Yan has never been serious."

"I'm too lazy to bother with this black-hearted, blind guy."

Yin Yezi pouted, sparks flashing in her beautiful eyes; Chen Shanni smiled helplessly, not knowing why the younger sister and Shen Yan were always at odds.

Shen Yan didn't take it to heart at all and instead asked Chen Shanni, "Why did you dress Yezi up just like yourself, even the clothes are the same style? Aren't you afraid people will mistake you for each other?"

"It was Yezi's idea; she said it's only fun if people can't tell us apart."

Not knowing what she was thinking of, a mischievous glint flashed in Chen Shanni's eyes.

That scene just now was indeed extremely fun.

She could pull more wild stunts in the future; hmph! Who told this jerk to tease her all day long.

Wu Yueer, who loved to watch the chaos, said with a straight face, "It seems we need to be more careful in the future, otherwise the sisters might pull a 'rebellion against heaven' at any time, and we'll be left in the dark, unable to tell who is who."

The sisters looked at each other and smiled, seemingly having planned it all along.

Yin Yezi asked Shen Yan, "How did you tell me apart from my sister just now?"

"Secret!" Shen Yan had no intention of explaining further, which left the sisters incredibly curious.

After they were seated, while Luo Qiqi and Yin Yezi were greeting each other, Chen Shanni whispered to Shen Yan, asking how he had actually told the sisters apart.

Shen Yan deliberately blew a breath onto her earlobe.

Watching it change from pale white to flushed, he couldn't help but reveal a triumphant smile.

His voice was soft and magnetic: "There's a song that goes like this: 'Just because I took one extra look at you in the crowd, I could never forget your face ever since.'"

The sudden flirtation made Chen Shanni's heart tremble violently; her eyes instantly became watery, as if carrying infinite tenderness.

"You're so bad, you only know how to pick sweet things to coax me." Though Chen Shanni was moved beyond words, only her mouth remained stubborn.

Yet her voice, like that of a yellow oriole, truly revealed her most genuine emotions.

"Oh! Then I won't say it next time."

"No, I want to hear it!"

"Depends on my mood!"

The scene of the two whispering to each other made the others feel quite jealous.

Wu Yueer clicked her tongue twice and teased, "Yo! What kind of secrets are you two sharing that you can't let everyone know? Look at Shanni's love-struck expression; someone who didn't know better would think she was in heat."

Chen Shanni's pretty face flushed slightly, then she feigned composure, brushed her bangs, and flatly denied it: "You're the one in heat. I was asking Shen Yan what you were all laughing about earlier; I only heard a line about 'the difficulty of the road to Shu is harder than ascending to heaven'."

Wu Yueer's eyebrows arched slightly, forming a beautiful curve.

"It's just Shen Yan spouting nonsense, threatening that whichever Sichuan-Chongqing girl dares to 'Laozi Shu Dao Shan' (get on the mountain road to Shu) with him, he'll let her know what it means for the road to Shu to be harder than ascending to heaven."

The unrelated phrases, when linked together, were unexpectedly harmonious.

The sisters burst into laughter again.

After two days of contact, Shen Yan's image as a well-read, dashing gentleman in Yin Yezi's heart had collapsed, replaced by that of a humorous, funny guy.

As the saying goes: "Birds of a feather flock together."

After her foster mother passed away, due to the pressures of life, Yin Yezi had to study while running a street stall to make ends meet, during which she was frequently harassed.

Therefore, Yin Yezi particularly detested boys who were always acting like hoodlums and never serious.

As for those classmates who were well-read and possessed an elegant temperament, they were her social circle.

At yesterday's military training mobilization meeting, Shen Yan spoke eloquently on the podium, his choice of words revealing a profound cultural foundation that deeply attracted Yin Yezi.

It was as if his whole person was shining.

At the moment their eyes met, Yin Yezi, who had never had any thoughts of romance, suddenly felt that having such a boyfriend might actually be quite nice.

She hadn't expected Shen Yan's style to change so quickly.

A bit humorous, thick-skinned, with other personality traits yet to be discovered.

Yet Yin Yezi couldn't bring herself to dislike him at all, feeling that getting along with Shen Yan was particularly relaxing and pleasant.

Seeing Wu Yueer giggling over there, Yin Yezi couldn't help but blurt out a sentence.

"Sister Yue'er, Shen Yan even said this morning that a Chuan Yu Tyrannosaurus is on the same level as a Northeast tigress; when they're gentle, they can't even unscrew a bottle cap, but when they get angry, they'll unscrew your skull."

The corner of Shen Yan's eye twitched slightly.

He thought to himself: "What's the situation with this girl? Why does she always have to go against me? But if you think you can make things difficult for me this way, then I can only say, you are too naive."
