Do you really think that any trash can get close to Sheng Lijue?
She is the only one who is Sheng Lijue’s final destination.
"There aren't many people here." Sheng Mingcheng felt that it was boring, but because of Sheng Yarong's instructions, he could only stay here.
"Yao Yao, look at this painting. Is it quite artistic? It's post-modern, right?" Sheng Mingcheng didn't know how to pretend to understand, and wanted to find some topics that would arouse Jiang Yuyao's interest.
Jiang Yuyao was disdainful in her heart, but she still had a smile on her face and corrected her gently: "Mingcheng, that's Impressionism."
Sheng Mingcheng smiled awkwardly and pointed to another painting: "What about this one? This is Monet's painting, right? It's so lifelike."
Jiang Yuyao's patience was almost exhausted, and her smile faded a little: "That's a painting by Van Gogh."
Really not wanting to pay attention to this ignorant, arty dandy, Jiang Yuyao slowed down and deliberately avoided Shengming City.
Inadvertently looking to the side, Jiang Yuyao saw a familiar figure. He was a friend of her father's. Because of a change in her family, she stayed at her house for a while. Later, her family's business improved again.
Jiang Yuyao's lips curved into a sneer, and she had a plan in mind.
"Eh? Aunt Xue?" Jiang Yuyao walked up and greeted a middle-aged woman who was dressed in low-key but elegant clothes.
Aunt Xue was surprised: "It's Yaoyao. You've grown so big, I almost didn't recognize you."
"Aunt Xue, what a coincidence. I remember that when we were young, you often made delicious food for Brother Li Jue and me. I didn't expect him and I to meet you here today." Jiang Yuyao said calmly to Sheng Li Jue who was also there.
The matter was revealed to Aunt Xue.
"Is Li Jue here too? Where is he?" Aunt Xue searched around.
Jiang Yuyao pointed downstairs: "He's over there."
Aunt Xue looked in the direction pointed by Jiang Yuyao's finger and recognized Sheng Lijue at a glance, who was also shining brightly in the crowd.
"I thought you two were a perfect match when I was little. One is handsome and the other is pretty. Are you together now?" Aunt Xue asked with concern.
Jiang Yuyao lowered her head in embarrassment and answered vaguely: "Not yet."
The meaning of "not yet" can be understood as "we will be together, but not yet".
Apparently Aunt Xue understands it this way.
"Let's go, take Auntie to say hello to him." Aunt Xue pulled Jiang Yuyao and was about to go downstairs.
Jiang Yuyao didn't want to act too deliberately and was worried about being suspected by Sheng Lijue, so she declined: "Auntie, you go over first. I have a friend over there. I have to tell him and then I'll go find you right away."
Aunt Xue didn't doubt anything: "Okay, then I'll go downstairs first."
Jiang Yuyao chose a relatively secluded location, waiting to see what was happening downstairs and looking for the right time to go downstairs.
After Aunt Xue went downstairs, she ran towards Sheng Lijue. At this time, Shi Qiuqiu also came back from the bathroom and was talking to him in a low voice.
"Isn't this Li Jue? Are you coming to see the exhibition too?" Aunt Xue said warmly.
Sheng Lijue was also a little surprised. Aunt Xue treated him well when he was a child, and she usually interacted with the old man, so he greeted her gently: "Aunt Xue, long time no see."
"Yes, I haven't seen you for more than ten years, but you are still so handsome." Aunt Xue sighed, her eyes moved to the left, and she noticed Shi Qiuqiu: "Who is this?"
When Aunt Xue appeared and started talking to Sheng Lijue, Shi Qiuqiu shook off Sheng Lijue's hand to prevent being discovered.
Now that she was asked directly, it was difficult for her to explain. Fortunately, Sheng Lijue's answer was correct.
"My friend." Sheng Lijue said.
Aunt Xue also knew Mr. Sheng, so Sheng Lijue did not admit his true relationship with Shi Qiuqiu.
"She's so pretty, isn't she her girlfriend?" Aunt Xue asked gossiping.
Shi Qiuqiu immediately pinched Sheng Lijue behind him, then coughed violently: "You really know how to joke."
This is an acquaintance. Now admit it and I guarantee that the old man will know it in a few minutes.
Sheng Lijue looked at Shi Qiuqiu and replied: "No."
Aunt Xue smiled cheerfully: "Then I don't shy away from speaking. I met Yaoyao just now, and she said you are not together yet. Why is that? I remember that you were often together when you were young. Your father also hopes that you will be together.
Would you like to find a partner quickly?"
If another person had said this, Sheng Lijue would have left with a shameful face, but he still calmly explained to Aunt Xue: "We were friends when we were children, and it's normal to be together often."
The subtext is that he and Jiang Yuyao are just good friends. Even though they were often together when they were children, they are still good friends.
Aunt Xue obviously didn't agree: "You young people just love to mess around. This handsome man and beautiful woman are so well matched. It's hard for your father to worry about you."
"Yao Yao and I are just friends." Sheng Lijue repeated.
Seeing that the two people downstairs were almost chatting, Jiang Yuyao hurried over and happened to hear Sheng Lijue's answer.
"Auntie, you didn't know that you immigrated at that time. In fact, I later went abroad to study and I just came back recently." Jiang Yuyao explained obediently: "We haven't seen each other for so many years. It's hard for brother Li Jue to still treat me as a friend. I'm afraid of being unfamiliar.
.”
On the surface, I was explaining it to Aunt Xue, but in fact, I wanted to send a message to Shi Qiuqiu. She and Sheng Lijue were not together not because they were not in love, but because she was abroad at the time, so she missed it.
Shi Qiuqiu's face remained normal, showing no special emotions.
"That's right. Anyway, Auntie is very optimistic about you two golden boys and girls." Auntie Xue joked.
Jiang Yuyao smiled shyly, and Sheng Lijue couldn't say anything, but his face was cold.
"Okay, I won't joke anymore. You guys talk first. I still have friends waiting for me over there. Auntie will treat you to dinner another day."
Aunt Xue walked away, and Jiang Yuyao pretended to be concerned and held Shi Qiuqiu's hand to comfort her: "Sister-in-law, I'm sorry, I made you feel embarrassed just now."
Shi Qiuqiu smiled and shook his head: "No, by the way, where did Shengming City go?"
"Mingcheng might be having fun, let's go now. How about we go to the restaurant and wait for him?" Jiang Yuyao tried her best to get rid of that troublesome Shengmingcheng.
After Sheng Mingcheng and Jiang Yuyao got separated, he had been looking for her. If his uncle knew that he had not completed the things he had promised, he would have been left without food for a long time.
After searching for a long time, I finally found it.
Sheng Mingcheng ran over panting: "Yao Yao, so you are here? I searched all over and couldn't find you."
The cold look in Jiang Yuyao's eyes when she raised her eyes startled Sheng Mingcheng.
But when he blinked again, he saw Jiang Yuyao smiling softly and gracefully.
Sheng Mingcheng thought he had seen it wrong and quickly patted his face to keep himself awake.
"I couldn't find you while I was walking, I'm sorry." Jiang Yuyao said apologetically to Sheng Mingcheng.
