Chapter 520: Have a girl you like? Or a boy?

Looking at Boss Yang's expression, Shen Ci couldn't help but laugh: "Uncle Yang, don't play this game with me. You have been in Longcheng for so many years, can't you get an approval for road repair?"

Hearing Shen Ci say this, Boss Yang revealed a slightly difficult expression: "Sigh, you don't deal with these people, so you don't understand. Nowadays, this new leadership team in Yangming District, how should I put it... is very difficult to deal with."

"Repairing the road is a good thing. If a company is willing to pay for road repair, can they not give approval?"

"That's true, but..." Boss Yang stopped talking, and finally shook his head: "Forget it, saying too much is meaningless. Since you have brought it up, Uncle will try his best. Wait for my news."

Saying this, he looked at Shen Ci and asked curiously: "However, do you have a specific plan for this project? What is the budget?"

"I haven't made a budget," Shen Ci said truthfully.

She hadn't done this kind of project either. Cemeteries were too niche, and she had almost no examples to refer to, but she was convinced that this project would definitely make money.

"You are doing this again," Boss Yang said helplessly: "Even if you have money, you can't be so willful. If you really have an idea, you have to evaluate the budget, at least define a range, so that the project won't get out of control."

"Then Uncle Yang, do you know any professionals who design cemeteries?" Shen Ci asked.

Boss Yang immediately laughed: "What kind of underworld major is this? How could anyone specifically learn to design cemeteries? You just find architecture professionals to design it. I do have some connections in this regard. If you need it, I can introduce them to you."

"Okay." Shen Ci smiled sweetly, acting like a junior: "I still have to rely on Uncle Yang to take care of me. I knew you wouldn't ignore me."

"Oh my, don't put me on a pedestal," Boss Yang waved his hand in feigned disgust: "If Xizi were here, you wouldn't think of me first."

Shen Ci covered her face, feeling embarrassed to be exposed to her face.

But Boss Yang saying this was obviously a joke, but the following words were a bit serious: "But seriously, I was quite surprised that Xizi could fancy you and recognize you as his sister. Later, when I saw the two of you getting closer, I secretly felt jealous more than once."

"Really or fake?" Shen Ci was a little pleasantly surprised: "Uncle Yang would also be jealous because of this kind of thing? Are you jealous of me or my brother?"

"Oh my, both, there's nothing bad to admit," Boss Yang said after taking a sip of red wine: "So now that Xizi is not here, I have to seize the opportunity to take advantage of the situation. When he comes out, our relationship will be even better, and then we will isolate him together!"

Hearing this, Shen Ci laughed because she knew Uncle Yang was joking.

And the next second, she heard Boss Yang sigh lightly: "There is less than a month before your brother's case goes to court. To be honest, I have no bottom in my heart, and I am very worried."

Shen Ci was the same, just didn't show it.

"Let's wait and see. Lawyer Qin said that if it doesn't involve murder and drugs, based on the criminal facts my brother confessed so far, he won't be sentenced too heavily," Shen Ci said softly.

Boss Yang pursed his lips and then smiled slightly: "Can only wait for a result. Hope it's a good result."

After finishing dinner with Uncle Yang and returning home, it was already nine o'clock in the evening.

The villa was lit. As soon as Shen Ci entered the door, she smelled a strong fragrance of food. In the dining room, her mother and younger brother were eating dinner.

Seeing her daughter return, Shen Jingjing stood up and said: "Want to eat some more?"

Shen Ci glanced at the dishes on the dining table, all of which were her favorites, but she really couldn't eat anymore.

Shook her head: "Not eating."

"Then drink a bowl of mung bean soup," Shen Jingjing said, opening the refrigerator and serving a bowl of iced mung bean soup to relieve the heat.

Shen Ci was slightly surprised: "Weren't you not home this afternoon? How do you have time to boil mung bean soup?"

"It was made by Auntie Deng's family, and they brought a portion for our family by the way. It's very clear, sweet, and refreshing. Your brother just drank two big bowls."

Hearing this, Shen Xing raised his head and grinned foolishly. Shen Ci sat down next to him and looked at him, asking: "What's the situation with you? Didn't you say you would stay at school during the holiday? Why did you run back?"

She didn't know if her brother had anything to do. In the past, he would stay at home for the weekend and rush to school in a hurry on Monday morning.

Now he didn't even want to come back during the National Day holiday.

Shen Ci could only think of one reason.

Looking at her brother's hesitant appearance, she couldn't help but ask: "In love?"

One sentence made Shen Jingjing look up at her son.

Shen Xing's face turned red, and he subconsciously denied: "No..."

"Then there is a girl you like?" Shen Ci asked again.

This time Shen Xing didn't deny it, but didn't admit it immediately either.

Shen Ci blinked: "Then is it a boy you like?"

"Sister!" Shen Xing shouted, making Shen Jingjing laugh.

Shen Ci shrugged innocently: "Why are you reacting so strongly? Our family is very open-minded. If you like boys, Mom and I will support you."

Shen Jingjing looked at her son, her eyes full of deep maternal love. Although she didn't express her position on the spot, she clearly agreed with her daughter's words.

"Sister!" Shen Xing said, crying and laughing: "Of course I like girls!"

"So there is someone you like? Did you chase her?" Shen Ci was instantly energized, picking up the mung bean soup and drinking it while looking at her brother with expectant eyes.

Shen Xing no longer denied it and nodded: "Chased, but didn't catch up yet."

"Do you have a photo? Let me see!" Shen Ci looked at her brother's phone aside and raised her eyebrows.

Shen Xing scratched his head embarrassedly, and then heard his mother say: "Mom wants to see it too."

With four eyes staring, Shen Xing pursed his lips and unlocked his phone, specifically picking a photo of the two of them looking their best for his sister and mother to see.

It was taken at the aquarium.

Shen Ci picked up the phone, and Shen Jingjing squeezed her head over. Looking at the people in the photo, the mother and daughter revealed the exact same expression, which was that their eyes lit up.

Shen Jingjing couldn't help but say: "A very beautiful girl!"

Shen Ci had seen more beauties. She was surrounded by them, but seeing Sang Hui's appearance, she also sincerely felt that she was good-looking. It was the kind of beauty with a lot of spirit.

"Good vision, went on a date?" Shen Ci said.

"Consider it so," Shen Xing said, looking at Shen Ci and asking: "Sister, Sang Hui's birthday is coming soon. I want to give her a gift. Do you think the first birthday gift should be more valuable or more restrained?"

Shen Ci stared at her brother's face asking for advice seriously, and then asked back: "What do you think?"

"I think Sang Hui should prefer a gift that is more thoughtful. When I go on a date with her, she wants to go Dutch with me. I think she is not a materialistic girl."

Going Dutch on a date?

Shen Ci smiled and asked again: "So far, you basically haven't spent any money on this girl?"

Shen Xing thought seriously for a while and shook his head: "Basically no."

Shen Ci drank the mung bean soup in the bowl to the bottom, and then said to her brother: "What I want to say is that thoughtfulness and value are not contradictory. Since you are struggling with these two points, why can't you send a gift that is both thoughtful and valuable?" ===== CHAPTER 521 =====
