Chapter 71: Tidying Up the House

Returning to school a day early was undoubtedly a wise move, maximizing the avoidance of the peak return travel period; vehicles on the highway shuttled back and forth like arrows in an endless stream, yet there were no traffic jams, and everything appeared so orderly.

Crossing great rivers and passing through mountain tunnels, at one o'clock in the afternoon, Shen Yan successfully arrived at the gate of Hangzhou University driving his small car.

Looking out, the once bustling and noisy Zijin Road was now silent, like an extinguished candle, having lost its former vitality and vigor. Fallen leaves danced in the wind, as if recounting the glory that once existed here.

Not to mention, without those female students wearing pleated skirts and revealing fair, shapely long legs, Shen Yan felt something was off no matter how he looked at it.

After pulling over to park, the three women walked to the trunk to retrieve their luggage; inadvertently, Yu Youwei noticed the printer in the corner and asked curiously, "Gao Yan, why did you bring this thing along?"

Shen Yan replied offhandedly that it was useless at home and he was planning to find a place to dispose of it; Yu Youwei didn't take it too seriously.

Wu Yueer, however, was troubled by the large gray teddy bear; after pondering for a moment, she said, "Shen Yan, leave the teddy bear with you for now; I'll come to pick it up when I have time later."

Shen Yan nodded, then drove Shen Nainai straight to Danqingyuan Residential Complex, grabbing a meal on the way; passing by the lush green park, the bustling wet market, and the spectacular Walmart supermarket, Shen Nainai nodded repeatedly as she watched.

The location of the residential complex was truly excellent, with convenient transportation, all kinds of public facilities nearby, and it was so close to the school.

Additionally, there were security guards stationed at the entrance of the complex, the lush landscaping was pleasing to the eye, and there was a huge fountain in the center of the complex.

The apartment itself was spacious and beautifully decorated; adding some furniture and a color TV would make it ready for move-in.

After putting down the luggage, Shen Yan said to Shen Nainai, "Grandma, you rest at home for a while, or take a stroll nearby; I'm going to take a turn around the furniture market."

Shen Nainai readily agreed.

As for the current Shen Yan, she had nothing to worry about.

Immediately after, Shen Yan ran to the furniture market and splurged according to his own aesthetic standards: Large Bed, sofa, coffee table, tables and chairs...

Sums of money flowed out of his bank card like water, yet for those millions in figures, it couldn't be called a dent in his finances.

After buying furniture, he bought appliances; of course, so many things couldn't be purchased in a single day, and there was also the need to install internet cables, buy daily necessities, and a series of other trivial matters.

It wasn't until seven o'clock the next evening that Shen Yan finally had some free time; at this moment, even with his physical fitness, he couldn't help but feel exhausted, his whole body slumped on the sofa as if he had been hollowed out.

Shen Nainai had her hands behind her back, her spine slightly hunched, following the cleaning staff with slow and rhythmic steps, fearing they might slack off.

At the same time, her eyes scanned every corner of the room, revealing surprise and admiration, "Xiao Yan, after being tidied up by you, the house looks brand new!"

After this, Shen Nainai had a further understanding of her grandson's capabilities.

Danta was sitting by Shen Yan's legs, looking left and right, full of curiosity about the new environment.

Shen Yan smiled slightly and said, "Grandma, if you like it, you can stay here often; that room is empty anyway."

Shen Nainai shook her head repeatedly, "That won't do; there are so many old friends back home, I can go out for a walk or visit neighbors whenever I'm free, how carefree and comfortable that is. People here speak the local dialect, I can't even understand it."

Shen Yan didn't force it; the older generation was more nostalgic, and forcing her to stay here wouldn't make her happy.

Just at this moment, a voice like a yellow oriole came from the doorway.

"Shen Yan, you've already moved in?"

Shen Yan looked back and saw Chen Shanni standing gracefully at the door, wearing a champagne-colored shirt with a bow at the collar, revealing the fair skin of her neck, paired with wide-leg trousers and a pair of small leather shoes; her long hair draped over her shoulders, her features were delicate, and her whole temperament was excellent.

"Just finished tidying up here, do you want to come in and sit for a while?" Shen Yan extended an invitation.

Chen Shanni glanced at Shen Nainai, looking slightly hesitant; Shen Nainai asked in confusion, "Xiao Yan, who is this?"

Shen Yan introduced, "Grandma, this is my classmate, Chen Shanni; she bought a house right next door."

"Chen Shanni, this is my grandma, who came here with me from home."

What? Shen Yan's grandma?

Chen Shanni was even more nervous now, her heart thumping like a drum; her legs bent slightly, but it was awkward to just run away, so she could only step forward with a blushing face and greet, "Hello, Grandma, I am Chen Shanni."

"Hello, hello, please sit down, there's fruit here; take whatever you like, don't be a stranger!"

Shen Nainai enthusiastically invited Chen Shanni to sit down and pushed the fruit platter on the coffee table toward her.

Goodness! How are the grandson's classmates getting prettier one after another, as if he'd entered the Women's Country.

She had even bought a house, clearly from a very well-off family.

Chen Shanni couldn't refuse the old lady's kindness, so she picked up a piece of Apple with a toothpick, blushing, and began to chew slowly.

Shen Yan asked casually, "You came over here, have you already moved in?"

Chen Shanni said the house had been tidied up a few days ago, and she was waiting to go back to the dormitory to get some things, planning to stay here tonight; Shen Yan said that was great.

Chen Shanni didn't stay long; after chatting for a few sentences, she left as if fleeing, as if something fierce was chasing her from behind.

Shen Nainai muttered, "This girl is good in every way, it's just that her personality is too introverted, exactly the same as you used to be."

At the same time, the news about Shen Yan winning the lottery quietly spread, stunning a large crowd of onlookers.

In the class group chat.

Someone called Passerby A, not knowing where they heard the news, was the first to speak: "Shocking news, Shen Yan won two million on a scratch-off."

Pang Weijie: "Really or fake?"

"Is it our class's Shen Yan? Where did the news come from?"

Zhu Baoping: "Talking nonsense, right? Haven't heard Old Shen mention it."

Passerby A: "It's our class's Shen Yan; he drove to school directly and even bought a house outside the school."

Lin Yang: "@Shen Yan, someone is spreading rumors, come out and clarify quickly."

"Ding-dong!"

"Dong-dong!"

"Ding-dong!"

A series of message notification sounds.

Shen Yan, lying on the sofa resting, took out his phone and looked; he had anticipated this situation, so he typed: "The matter is true, currently busy, please do not disturb."

After saying that, he directly blocked the group messages.

One word shocked the world.

In an instant, the entire group was like a gunpowder barrel that had been ignited, completely exploding! All kinds of comments surged in like a tide, scrolling across the screen at an astonishing speed, each message carrying urgent emotions.

The content was nothing more than one point.

Heavens! My classmate actually won the lottery and struck it rich; it's simply unbelievable, I'm so envious!
