After I picked up the villain, I became popular

Chapter 197 Only One Invitation

In a blink of an eye, it was the end of December.

Shen Xu had already returned from abroad.

He already knew everything that happened in the country.

When he came back this time, apart from visiting his parents and sister, Shen Xu also wanted to clean up Ling Yao.

Ling Yao didn't plan to go back at all, she was about to tear herself apart with Shen Dongcheng and the others, so there was no need to be polite to them.

But the day before the holiday, that is, just after the final exam, Shen Xu was waiting for Ling Yao at the school gate.

Today happens to be the last day of December.

As a third party in high school, Ling Yao is of course the last one to go on vacation.

Shen Xu stayed abroad all year round and had relatively little contact with Ling Yao.

If it wasn't for Shen Xue in the car to help identify him, Shen Xu might not even know anyone.

Standing outside the car door, Shen Xu was dressed in casual clothes, tall and tall, with his hands in his side pockets, looking youthful.

He is more like Shen Dongcheng, and his current appearance is [-]% similar to Shen Dongcheng when he was young.

This is also an important reason why Fang Wenbo prefers Shen Xue to Shen Xu.

When many people from No. [-] Middle School passed by, they would cast their eyes on him.

Shen Xu would politely smile at those people.

Seeing Ling Yao coming out, Shen Xu immediately walked towards Ling Yao waving his hands.

"Sister Ling Yao!"

Shen Xu directly stopped in front of Ling Yao and Lin Tongtong.

Lin Tongtong immediately wanted to gossip, "Sister Yao, this is..."

Before Ling Yao could speak, Shen Xu introduced himself, "Hi, I'm Shen Xu, sister Ling Yao's younger brother."

Shen Xu and Shen Xue are two siblings, Shen Xue is usually like a white lotus, Shen Xu does his part to pretend to be a good person.

He thought that after he introduced himself like this, Lin Tongtong would be as curious about him as others.

Unexpectedly, Lin Tongtong was stunned for a few seconds, and immediately pulled Ling Yao to leave.

"Let's go, I remember that a new dessert shop opened recently, I think you can buy it and try it..."

Ling Yao smiled, without looking at Shen Xu, and followed Lin Tongtong in another direction.

Shen Xu looked back at Shen Xue, the other party obviously asked him to follow.

Even if he got angry again, Shen Xu had no choice but to jump in front of the two of them again.

"Sister Lingyao, it's New Year's Eve tonight, and my father personally told me to come and pick you up."

Shen Xu emphasized the word "personal mouth".

"Tongtong, I'll take a step first."

Ling Yao patted Lin Tongtong on the shoulder, planning to follow Shen Xu.

"It doesn't matter if you go to my house for the New Year. My parents definitely welcome it."

"No need." Ling Yao waved her hand, "I'll talk about it next time I have a chance. I'll visit your house to celebrate the New Year in two days."

"Okay~"

Lin Tongtong waved his hand and watched Ling Yao leave.

Shen Xu snorted in his heart, he had never paid much attention to Ling Yao.

Ling Yao thought that she would not see Shen Xue until she went back.

Unexpectedly, when I opened the car door, I saw the other party.

"Long time no see." Shen Xue curled her lips slightly, "Sister, sister."

Now she is the koi in everyone's eyes, and Shen Dongcheng also regards her as a treasure, so why does Ling Yao fight her? !
"Ah."

Ling Yao sat in the back row with a cold expression.

He didn't forget to send a message to Fu Jingyan, saying that he had to go back later.

Shen Xu had already sat in the passenger seat.

Shen Xue didn't want to make things difficult for herself now, so she held back a bunch of mocking words in her stomach.

The car fell silent.

Ling Yao lowered her head and opened her sky eyes, then turned her head to look at Shen Xue.

It's okay if you don't look at it, but Ling Yao was stunned immediately.

The general popularity luck line is normally only a thin line of one millimeter, and the more unlucky it is, the thinner it will be.

Shen Xue's luck line is as thick as a little finger!
What's going on here?

As for the magic weapon to gather luck, Ling Yao didn't see it either.

She was so puzzled that she forgot to look away.

Shen Xue quickly noticed Ling Yao's gaze staring at her, "What is sister looking at me for?"

Ling Yao came back to her senses, "It's just in a daze."

She looked ahead and found that Shen Xu's luck seemed to have increased a bit.

Before she could investigate further, the car stopped at the gate of the villa.

Before getting off the car, Ling Yao grabbed the void behind Shen Xue.

As soon as her heart moved, Shen Xue's luck flew directly towards her, like an unpredictable cloud, all gathered on her palm.

Ling Yao waved her hand, and her luck dissipated.

If you really take the luck that belongs to others, no matter how good your own luck is, I am afraid that you will have to pay the corresponding price in the future.

It's not worth it.

Ling Yao still didn't know why Shen Xue's luck suddenly improved, so she had to follow the two siblings out of the car for the time being.

Seeing the three of them back, Shen Dongcheng seemed very happy.

"It's good that Yaoyao is back too, it's better to come back this Chinese New Year, what does it look like to be alone?"

"That's right, Chinese New Year is all about reunion." Zhou Huiqin echoed, "Xiao Xu is back too, it's rare for a family to reunite."

"Reunion?" Ling Yao sat down, "My mother is not here yet."

Zhou Huiqin's face became stiff all of a sudden.

Then he was wronged again.

"Yaoyao!" Shen Dongcheng hurriedly said, "For those who celebrate Chinese New Year, say something happy."

"Did I make you unhappy by mentioning my mother? Shouldn't I stay here? Or dad should tell me where my mother is, and I'll go find her now. "

As Ling Yao said, she got up and was about to leave.

"Yaoyao!" Shen Dongcheng turned cold for a moment, but soon laughed again, "Don't worry about it, I will take you to meet your mother in two years."

Two days can also be transferred to Ling Yalan.

A cold light flashed in Shen Dongcheng's eyes.

When Ling Yao inherits all the shares of Ronghua Group, Ling Yalan can die.

"Really?" Ling Yao asked back, looking at her expression, she knew that she really wanted to see Ling Yalan.

Zhou Huiqin curled her lips, "Husband, didn't you say that you have to go on a business trip in two days? Why don't you wait a while?"

Shen Dongcheng suddenly opened his mouth when he heard the words, "Ah, I forgot about this..."

He looked at Ling Yao apologetically, "Yaoyao, it's really not going to work in two days, I will take you there after a while, how about it?"

Ling Yao bit her lip and lowered her head.

"Can't I just go by myself?"

She's so happy right now.

As long as Shen Dongcheng is sent away, the three of Zhou Huiqin probably won't be very good at observing and monitoring.

"This--"

Shen Dongcheng smiled, "Yaoyao, it's not up to me to decide. The main reason is that the medical staff have said that they can only go once a month. I went there last time..."

How can a paralyzed patient pay so much attention?

Only someone like Shen Dongcheng could say such cheeky words.

"When will Dad go on a business trip? When will he come back? When can he take me there?"

Ling Yao's open and honest question three times will not arouse anyone's suspicion.

"Maybe I'll leave the day after tomorrow. The meeting will take about three to five days. Don't worry, I will definitely take you there before the Lantern Festival."

When Ling Yao heard the exact time, she was instantly 'relieved'.

"Then I'll wait for Dad to come back."

"That's right." Shen Dongcheng and Zhou Huiqin looked at each other, "Let the kitchen serve the food, since everything is here."

After all, it's the Chinese New Year, and the meals are much richer than usual.

At the dining table, apart from Shen Dongcheng occasionally saying a few words and Shen Xu answering a few words, there was no other sound.

When it was almost finished, Zhou Huiqin remembered something and reminded, "Xiao Xu, didn't you say that you brought gifts for your two sisters from abroad? Why didn't you take them out?"

Shen Xu suddenly realized, put down his chopsticks and went upstairs.

When he came down, he had a box in his hand.

"I've already sent out the second sister's gift. This is Ling Yao's gift."

Then he opened the box, "This is a ladies' watch I specially selected, and it's similar to the style of my second sister."

Before Shen Xu finished speaking, Shen Xue also lifted up her sleeves, revealing a similar wrist watch.

"Sister Ling Yao, how about trying it..." Shen Xu pushed the box to Ling Yao.

Ling Yao glanced at the watch suspiciously, thinking in her heart, did Shen Xu want to give her a watch to disgust her, or did she say that the watch was something else...

If Shen Xu gave her the watch for nothing, Ling Yao would not believe it.

However, they all sent it over in the open, so Ling Yao put it on generously.

"not bad."

"I specially chose this watch for Sister Ling Yao, and there are some broken diamonds on it."

"Xiao Xu also has intentions." Shen Dongcheng nodded, "I still miss your two older sisters abroad, that's how siblings should be."

Ling Yao: ...

hehe.

Shen Xu nodded.

Seeing that Ling Yao was about to take off the watch, he couldn't help but ask, "Does sister Ling Yao not like it? Why did you take off the watch?"

"Do you have to wear it?" Ling Yao raised her eyebrows and asked back.

"It's not...that's..." Shen Xu looked up at Ling Yao from time to time, as if he was embarrassed to say it.

Ling Yao almost rolled her eyes, "Speak up if you have something to say, you make me feel a little off, I might as well not eat this meal."

Shen Xue defended her younger brother, "How could my sister say that? Xiao Xu just didn't want her thoughts to go to waste. Since my sister said she likes it, what's wrong with wearing it?"

"You two!" Shen Dongcheng glanced at the two of them in disapproval, "Don't say too much, let Yaoyao wear it if she wants to, and don't want to if she doesn't want to."

"En." Shen Xue died down.

Ling Yao slightly bent her lips, then put on the watch again.

Soldiers come to block, water comes to cover, she is not afraid of these people.

Seeing Shen Xu's two siblings looking over, Ling Yao snorted softly, pretending to soften her heart, "Since it was brought back by Shen Xu all the way, then I'll wear it."

Before Ling Yao finished speaking, the butler came in again from the outside.

"Sir, the Mu family sent an invitation." The butler handed over an envelope.

The envelope is gold, and there are no patterns or words on it.

Several people fell silent, and their attention fell on the envelope.

"The Mu family?"

Shen Dongcheng subconsciously glanced at Ling Yao.

Since Ling Yao yelled not to pursue Mu Sheng, they didn't seem to hear all kinds of stupid things Ling Yao did in order to pursue Mu Sheng.

"Dad, open it quickly and take a look? Did the Mu family invite our family to a banquet?"

Shen Xue couldn't wait.

She also hasn't seen Mu Sheng for a long time.

"Don't worry."

Shen Dongcheng was actually as excited as Shen Xue.

Shen Xue did it for Mu Sheng, and Shen Dongcheng did it for making friends with the Mu family...

However, the envelope was opened, and inside was an invitation.

In the invitation, it is written that the Mu family will hold a New Year banquet tomorrow night.

Didn't even write the name!
But everyone knows the banquet rules.

An invitation can only go to one person!

What does Mu family mean?Just invite Ling Yao alone?

Shen Dongcheng's expression changed instantly.

He knew that even if Ling Yao got involved with the Mu family, it was useless, at least it was useless to Shen Dongcheng!
Ling Yao on the side didn't care about these things, she was still eating the food gracefully.

Sitting next to Shen Dongcheng, Zhou Huiqin immediately understood the reason why the other party didn't speak.

As for Shen Xue and Shen Xu, they waited quietly for Shen Dongcheng to speak.

"Who sent the invitation?" Shen Dongcheng slapped the invitation on the table.

"It's Young Master Mu's assistant. That's how he introduced himself." The butler replied.

"Dad, are you inviting our family? Why just an invitation..." Shen Xue sensed something was wrong.

Shen Dongcheng shook his head, "No, one invitation only invites one person."

Shen Xue looked at Ling Yao with a gloomy face.

Shen Xu tugged at the corner of her clothes, and then, taking advantage of the few people not paying attention, he whispered a few words in Shen Xue's ear.

Although Shen Dongcheng was unhappy, it was difficult to express it bluntly.

He picked up the invitation card and wanted to give it to Ling Yao.

"Yaoyao—"

"Dad!" Shen Xue hurriedly called him to stop.

"Xiaoxue?"

"Dad." Shen Xue smiled and winked at Shen Dongcheng, "Didn't we agree to go to grandma's place tomorrow? My sister hasn't been to grandma's place for two years, right? If my sister doesn't go, grandma will definitely say What……"

Shen Xu also said, "That's right, Dad, there's no name on the invitation, right? Doesn't it mean that we only need to go to one person at home?"

"That's right, but..."

Shen Dongcheng hesitated a little.

The members of the Mu family clearly wanted to invite Ling Yao.

They didn't pay attention to Shen Dongcheng and the others, so they didn't even write their names.

Seeing this, Shen Xue deliberately asked Ling Yao, "Didn't my sister say that she doesn't like Brother Mu Sheng anymore? So you probably don't really want to go to Mu's family's annual banquet?"

Ling Yao hummed, raised her eyes and said, "Father can figure it out, I can do whatever I want."

She wanted to know why Shen Xu and Shen Xue wanted her to go to Shen Dongcheng's hometown.

"In that case, then—"

"Why don't you let Second Sister go, doesn't Second Sister have something to say to Brother Mu Sheng?" Shen Xu suggested.

Shen Dongcheng couldn't see what the two of them meant.

He nodded, "Then Xiaoxue can go, but you have to call your grandma."

Shen Dongcheng's mother, Wang Qiu, was patriarchal. It didn't matter whether Shen Xue went or not, as long as Shen Xu passed.

"it is good."

Shen Xue happily accepted the invitation, and winked at Shen Xu again.

"I'm stuffed."

Ling Yao picked up the napkin beside her and wiped her mouth, then stood up.

"It's getting late, I'll go back first."

"Today is New Year's Eve anyway, why don't you stay at home and rest for the night?" Shen Dongcheng couldn't help asking.

"No."

Ling Yao left after finishing speaking, regardless of whether Shen Dongcheng and the others agreed or not.

Zhou Huiqin wanted to get up to see her off, but Shen Xu grabbed her.

"Mom, you didn't eat much just now, you'd better sit down and eat."

"it is good."

Zhou Huiqin got up just to show off in front of Shen Dongcheng.

"Xiao Xu is right, you sit at ease."

Shen Dongcheng said with a cold face, "It's getting more and more disobedient."

Everyone in Shen Xue knew that this was about Ling Yao.
