Chapter 137: Is he as handsome as me?
Shen Zhaozhao walked backward, holding her hands behind her back, the breeze blowing her shoulder-length black and shiny long hair. She reached out and tucked her hair behind her ears, smiling shyly and nimbly, "Mm. I'm from the Computer Science Department of Qingbei University, I just finished participating in the programming competition today, and as soon as it ended, I came to find Sister."
Xu Zhouyuan immediately clicked his tongue: "You sisters have a pretty good relationship."
"Mm." Shen Zhaozhao nodded: "Mom died early, I was fostered at Sister's house since I was little. Auntie treated me especially well, just like Mom."
Zhang Zixin listened to her speaking without opening her mouth, her gaze as if she were sizing her up.
Xu Zhouyuan: "Didn't expect you to be a ceiling-level advanced straight-A student, not bad."
Shen Zhaozhao lowered her head and smiled modestly: "Not really, actually... Sister's grades were better than mine before, it's just that some things at home affected Sister, she was distracted in her studies, so she came here."
As soon as this was said, Xu Zhouyuan and the others looked at each other.
Shen Zhaozhao's gaze crossed them and fell on the two people walking slowly behind them, "I'll go find Sister."
As she spoke, she walked over to Shen Li's side and affectionately linked her arm. "Sister, what are you and Brother-in-law chatting about? You're walking so slowly. Where are we going to eat later?"
Shen Li brushed her hand away and didn't pick up her words.
Shen Zhaozhao's hand froze in mid-air, and the smile on her face dimmed imperceptibly for a moment.
"Sister, are you still angry with me?"
Shen Li's tone was casual: "I have nothing to say to you, go back early after eating this meal."
Next time, don't come again.
She wasn't afraid at all that Shen Zhaozhao would tell them about her being in Wuchuan.
Some things were hidden in the heart and not said, even if they were to be said, they were all things separated by a layer of window paper. If it was poked through, the relationship between them would only be worse.
Even if there was a fierce quarrel in the end, only one person could stay in that home.
Shen Li didn't need to think about who would stay.
She also understood that Shen Zhaozhao's coming this time was just to test whether she was living well or not.
In her heart, she never really wanted her to go back.
Without her there, she could more logically continue to stay in that home forever.
In that home, one more of her wasn't much, and one less of her wasn't much.
They found a Chinese restaurant with Wuchuan cuisine that had a relatively good environment.
The seven people sat in a private room, and the waiter brought the menu over.
Shen Zhaozhao: "You guys order, I don't know what good specialty dishes Wuchuan has, anything is fine, I don't have any dietary restrictions."
Xie Qin opened a page of the menu and leaned over to ask Shen Li beside him, "What do you want to eat?"
Shen Li didn't have much interest, "Anything is fine, you order whatever."
"Brother-in-law, I'll order with you, I know what Sister likes to eat."
This little thought, in Zhang Zixin's view, really couldn't be more obvious. They were all girls, and at first glance, she saw that this younger cousin wasn't a good person.
However, she wasn't worried at all. After getting along with Xie Qin for a long time, one could actually find that he was more reliable than Xu Zhouyuan, who was unreliable.
Xie Qin didn't even pay attention to her, just closed the menu, reported three dish names, and handed the task of adding dishes to Xu Zhouyuan.
The three dishes he reported were all dishes Shen Li often ate.
Shen Zhaozhao, who was standing up, saw the smile frozen at the corner of her mouth, and Zhang Zixin couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Xu Zhouyuan got the menu: "Wife, what are you laughing at? Say it out and let me laugh too."
Zhang Zixin drank some water, "Order your dishes."
These few people had been hanging out together since high school, familiar to the point of being unable to be more familiar, often gathering together, how could they not know.
Xu Zhouyuan ordered a few Wuchuan specialty dishes, adding up to more than a dozen, enough for seven people to eat.
Not many people cared about what expression Shen Zhaozhao had. Her academic qualifications were indeed surprising, but that was all, there was nothing too special.
Just talking about Xu Zhouyuan's family, his family opened a new energy industry company, and in the local area, his family was also in the top three of the rich list. Not to mention high-level leaders, just by looking at those recruited every year, any one of them was a top student from Qingbei or Jiang University, and graduate students were even more of a matter of course, so it was nothing.
Otherwise, why would they say that this person could play together.
See through but don't say through.
The main thing is to have a count in the heart.
Seeing the atmosphere quiet down.
Zhou Mingyu enlivened it, "Little sister, you don't need to worry about her, with our Brother Qin here, does he still not know what our sister-in-law likes to eat?"
"You order yours." He flipped another page of the menu, and at the end, only drinks were left, "Order you a glass of freshly squeezed juice? Watermelon juice?"
Shen Zhaozhao was the center point wherever she was in her school class, and the classmates around her almost all surrounded her. She was also a precious little princess at home and had never been left out.
At this moment, she felt that she couldn't get off the stage.
She smiled and nodded: "Mm, thank you."
In the process of waiting for the dishes.
Shen Zhaozhao chatted familiarly with the few boys, chatting about the regional differences between Haishi and Di Du, basically chatting about food, and there was more gossip. Shen Li didn't like to talk much anyway, so she sat quietly to the side, listening to them chat.
Suddenly, I don't know who opened the conversation first, asking about Shen Li's past in Haishi.
Zhou Mingyu curiously asked: "Our sister-in-law is so beautiful, there must have been many boys chasing her when she was studying before."
Shen Zhaozhao drank some juice through the straw, nodded: "Mm, Sister has been very beautiful since she was little, some boys who liked Sister would take advantage of the break time to secretly look at Sister at the classroom door, and would send gifts and flowers."
"Some boys wrote many love letters to Sister."
"When she was in high school, there was also a boy who..."
Shen Li pressed her lips and called her name: "Shen Zhaozhao." There was no too much emotion in her tone.
Shen Zhaozhao covered her mouth instantly, looked at her timidly, seemingly a bit afraid of her, and immediately didn't dare to speak: "Sorry Sister, I couldn't hold back for a moment."
"Expected." Xu Zhouyuan said: "When Brother Qin was chasing your sister, he also put in a lot of effort."
"Now he's been cleaned up and is obedient."
Xie Qin leaned lazily on the chair, his hands crossed in front of his chest, squinting his eyes, his look at her was meaningful, "Continue..."
Shen Li met his eyes and looked at him, feeling like she was going to be settled with later, "Nothing worth listening to."
"Why are you afraid of me knowing?"
Shen Li averted her gaze and didn't look at him anymore.
"I'm just curious, want to understand, what kind of despicable means my rival, whom I've never met, used on you, and dared to seduce you?"
Shen Li: "..."
"Is he as handsome as me?" ===== CHAPTER 138 =====
