The sword of online games runs on mountains and rivers

Chapter 168 Meeting an old friend by chance?

Night falls, Jiang Chuan.

Walking side by side with Jiang Wan'er on the brightly lit Vientiane Pedestrian Street Avenue, looking at the dazzling array of shops on the left and right sides, Chu Yan, an otaku who hasn't been out for a long time, feels very happy.

The emperor pays off!
He finally had this opportunity to go out on a date with Jiang Wan'er!
Although this was just his unilateral wishful thinking, maybe Jiang Wan'er just wanted to find a coolie to carry her bags and pay for her, but this was something he had never even dared to think about before.

"Where are we going?"

It was the first time to go shopping with a girl, Chu Yan seemed to be in high spirits, looking left and right, he was more energetic than Jiang Wan'er, and he didn't have the tired headache of going shopping with a girl in the legend.

It is rare that there is some free time at the end of the points race, and he also wants to take this opportunity to relax his tense nerves.This shopping is not so much to accompany Jiang Wan'er, but rather to say that he wants to go out for a walk himself.

"Let's go and look at men's clothing first! You too, you have become a professional player anyway, and you don't know how to be particular about your clothes. You only have a few sets of clothes to wear..."

Jiang Wan'er felt speechless when she said that, which other boys didn't dress up "pretty well" to attract the attention of the opposite sex?Only Chu Yan was an outlier, with an empty wardrobe, and neither shaved nor cut his beard and hair.

This guy has been home for too long!

As soon as he heard that he wanted to buy clothes for him, Chu Yan immediately said that he didn't need it.He is a big man who doesn't need to dress up, the clothes are enough to wear, it's a pity to buy so much money and waste money not to mention that he hasn't had a chance to wear them yet.

However, his opinion was not accepted at all, Jiang Wan'er dragged him to a boutique men's clothing store at the end of a pedestrian street, and walked into the store while being greeted by the clerk.

"Welcome! Do you two need anything?"

Jiang Wan'er pointed to the shy and cautious Chu Yan behind her and said to the clerk, "Buy him some clothes, do you have any more casual styles in your store?"

"There are some!"

The clerk is a beautiful young woman who still has charm, not so much a clerk, but more like the proprietress of this store in Chu Yan's eyes.As soon as she heard it, she understood that this was a pair of customers with very strong purchase intentions, and immediately led them to the clothes hanger next to them.

"Sir, what do you think of this one? Our clothes here are business and casual. The designs are all designed by internationally renowned designers, and the fabrics are also selected from the best..."

The lady proprietress was also observing the young couple during her introduction. Her shop is all big-name and high-end, and the customers are mainly white-collar elites in the business district next door. Only these people can consume this kind of high-end clothing.

It's not that she doesn't think the other party can't afford such a young couple who look like students, it's just that it's weird.

Where did she seem to have seen that boy who didn't talk much?
this face...

How to give her a sense of familiarity?
The proprietress was very strange. Somehow she had a feeling that this boy seemed to have something to do with her dead brother who hadn't heard from her for many years.

"Okay, let's try these two sets."

Jiang Wan'er seemed to have Chu Yan's consent, and quickly decided to try on the two sets in her hand first, then handed over the clothes to Chu Yan, and stood there with the proprietress waiting for him to come out of the fitting room.

Chu Yan walked into the fitting room with the clothes in his arms. While observing whether there were any new customers at the door of the store, the proprietress pretended to ask unintentionally, "Little girl, is this your boyfriend?"

"No!" Jiang Wan'er said calmly.

The proprietress snorted and asked again, "Is that your younger brother? Or older brother?"

"It's not..."

Jiang Wan'er also felt strange, why did the proprietress ask these questions?

Unable to communicate by beating around the bush, the proprietress simply asked, "Can you tell me the name of this young man?"

"His name is Chu Yan, what's wrong?"

"Chu Yan? Chu..." The proprietress was dumbfounded. If she had just vaguely guessed that the young man had something to do with her elder brother, then she had confirmed her guess now.

The surname is Chu, and she looks seven points like her elder brother. If it doesn't matter, it's a coincidence.

"Is his father's name Chu Huaiyuan?" the proprietress asked.

"I have no idea……"

Jiang Wan'er naturally noticed the strangeness of the proprietress, and she didn't foolishly guess that the proprietress should have something to do with Chu Yan's family, but she really didn't know the situation of Chu Yan's family.

Chu Yan never mentioned his family, and she had never met Chu Yan's parents since he entered the same class as her.Even if it's a relationship that is more than a friend but not a lover, she has never heard Chu Yan introduce her to her family situation.

There is a problem here!

In the past, Jiang Wan'er just thought that Chu Yan's relationship with her parents might be tense and she didn't want to mention it, but now she has another guess.

The proprietress fell silent when she heard the words, and just when she was still about to ask Jiang Wan'er, a neutral answer came from her ear: "Do you know my father?"

Looking back, Chu Yan was standing behind her wearing the clothes he had just chosen, with complicated eyes.

The proprietress also ignored those scruples at the moment, and quickly asked: "So, you are really my elder brother's son?"

"Your brother?"

Chu Yan was stunned for a moment, then carefully looked at the proprietress in front of him, and was surprised to find that he was somewhat similar to the proprietress.

"Say it another way..."

"Good good!"

……

The proprietress closed the shop, and took Chu Yan and Jiang Wan'er into the second floor of the shop. This is the house where she lives. It has all kinds of daily furniture and electrical appliances, and the decoration is very warm. There is also a layer of carpet on the floor.

Next to the window facing the street, there is an old desk, and next to the computer on the desk, there is a family photo.

After Chu Yan changed his shoes and entered the door, he was attracted by the family photo at first sight.

Walk over to pick up the photo frame, and carefully look at the characters in the photo.

It was a warm group photo of a family of four. The father held his son high and smiled brightly at the camera.The mother squatted down and rubbed her daughter's head with a shofar braid, her face was full of happiness.

The proprietress entered the room last, closed the door and was about to pour a glass of water for the two of them, when she found Chu Yan holding the family photo in a daze.

She walked over and stood beside Chu Yan, who was half a head taller than her, and said softly, "If you are really my elder brother's son, the child in this photo is your father..."

Chu Yan was in a complicated mood, and put down the family photo for a long time without words.

His dad didn't say he had a younger sister!
Is the kid in the photo who looks similar to him when he was a child really his father?But why didn't he hear from his father?

Now that things have happened, Chu Yan has also believed what the proprietress said. She may really be his father's sister, that is, his aunt.I just don't know why, but his father never mentioned to him that he has a younger sister.

Could it be related to the "past events" that Dad said?
