Chapter 629: Chapter 391: When One Man Attains the Tao, Even His Pets Ascend to Heaven; The Superiors – Part 2 Chapter 629: Chapter 391: When One Man Attains the Tao, Even His Pets Ascend to Heaven; The Superiors – Part 2 Doesn’t he look familiar… Isn’t that my brother?
“Xinyu, am I seeing wrong?” Shen Xuan turned her head to ask Chen Xinyu.
When Chen Xinyu heard “Health Managent Company,” she also looked up and sure enough, it was indeed her brother-in-law.
It had been a while since they last t, and unexpectedly the next eting would be at the university… Chen Xinyu looked up, seemingly recalling sothing, and her cheeks inexplicably blushed a faint red.
“What do you an seeing wrong? What’s going on, do you know soone up there?”
Wang Lei was feeling a bit uncomfortable now, his attempt to show off was interrupted midway, just like being forced to stop midway through using the bathroom.
Damn, let finish showing off!
“The one up there is my brother. I wondered which idiot leader it was, turns out to be him,” said Shen Xuan.
“Your brother? You an Mr. Shen?”
Wang Lei couldn’t help but take a few more glances at Shen Xuan and then at Shen Yuan above, they didn’t look alike at all, perhaps the junior was wearing the wrong glasses today.
He couldn’t help but chuckle, “You must be wrong, junior, that’s Mr. Shen.”
“What about Mr. Shen? Is he that impressive?”
Shen Xuan was sowhat dismissive; she initially thought it was soone else. Was this senior making up all these great tales just about his brother?
And to think she had to clean up early in the morning.
No way, I have to ask him for more allowance!
“Of course he’s impressive, to receive such extensive hospitality, his wealth and status are beyond our imagination.”
Wang Lei said with a smile, “Let put it this way, the research projects Mr. Shen sponsors are worth at least tens of millions; who else could afford such a gesture?”
Shen Xuan nonchalantly said, “Oh, so my brother has so much money he doesn’t know what to do with it? I can help him spend it.”
Wang Lei found it amusing: “Alright, junior, not just you, I’d want to recognize him as my brother too, but no use.”
“Oh, believe it or not, he’ll co over in a bit.”
Shen Xuan took out her mobile phone, ready to send a ssage to Shen Yuan.
“It’s not like you still…”
Wang Lei wanted to crack a couple more jokes but suddenly realized sothing was off in the atmosphere, especially the expression on Chen Xinyu’s face.
He looked at Chen Xinyu, who seriously nodded at him.
Chen Xinyu was so pure-hearted, she definitely wouldn’t lie to him.
Damn, she really is Mr. Shen’s sister?
He suddenly felt sowhat embarrassed.
….
On the second floor of the cafeteria, Shen Yuan was eating with Vice Chancellor Wei Zhuo and Academician Zhang at a stainless steel table.
The cafeteria at Nanzhong University indeed had richer offerings than at International campus, with nurous and tempting dishes; Shen Yuan got himself five dishes and a soup.
The cafeteria auntie here was particularly enthusiastic, serving generous portions for every dish. When Shen Yuan got his five dishes, he rarely felt the weight in his hands substantial.
He was sowhat moved by it.
“Mr. Shen, the cafeteria food is rather simple. Tonight, I’ll take you out for sothing better.”
Wei Zhuo was quite embarrassed, business receptions were usually held outside; coming to the cafeteria was rare.
“It’s fine.”
Shen Yuan waved his hand and smiled as he comnted on the food: “The food here suits my taste well. If our university’s cafeteria was like this, I’d probably be much heavier now.”
“Hahaha, Mr. Shen is joking. But where did Mr. Shen hear about the standards of Nanzhong University’s cafeteria?” asked Wei Zhuo.
“My sister is studying here; she’s a freshman this year.”
“Your sister?”
Wei Zhuo was pleased and his eyes imdiately lit up: “What’s your sister’s na and what is her major?”
“Shen Xuan, I forgot her specific major.”
“With such a good family background yet achieving admission to Nanzhong University through her own efforts really shows excellent genes in your family!”
Wei Zhuo hurriedly offered up flattery while silently noting down the na Shen Xuan.
He was rather confident about Shen Yuan sponsoring research projects, but with the added relationship of Mr. Shen’s sister studying at Nanzhong, it was nearly a sure thing!
Honors, scholarships, student council positions, youth league positions, all arranged!
The saying goes, when one person ascends to heaven, even their chickens and dogs rise too; Shen Xuan probably didn’t realize her college life was about to take off.
Forget the cleaning job in the morning; from now on, as long as she had requests, the teachers wouldn’t let her fail even if she skips classes every day.
At that mont, Shen Yuan received a ssage from Shen Xuan.
He picked it up and said she was now in the cafeteria on the first floor, saw him, and even asked what he was doing here.
Shen Yuan replied: “Kid, mind your own business. Is Xinyu with you?”
Receiving the ssage on the first floor, Shen Xuan imdiately grumbled: “Not caring about her own sister but asking about you. Look, Xinyu, this is my dear brother.”
Shen Xuan handed her phone to Chen Xinyu to take a look, the latter felt her face burning and thought that her brother-in-law was being too bold. What if Shen Xuan notices sothing?
Shen Xuan replied: “I suspect mom and dad got you with their phone top-up. Xinyu is right next to ; do you want to co down and see?”
Shen Yuan: “Okay, I’ll co down in a bit.”
Shen Xuan: “If I said Xinyu wasn’t here, you wouldn’t co over, right?”
Shen Yuan: “Do I even need to say it?”
Shen Xuan got so annoyed, turned her head to Chen Xinyu and said: “See, Xinyu, you definitely need to stay away from n like my brother. Are nieces not as important as little sisters?”
Chen Xinyu lowered her eyes and fidgeted with her fingertips, her heart pounding rapidly, unsure if it was because her brother-in-law was coming down or because he didn’t hide his longing for her.
Suddenly, her phone also vibrated.
It was a WeChat ssage; she opened it and after reading the content, she trembled and quickly turned off the screen.
The ssage was from Shen Yuan, and it was a simple line.
“Xinyu, do you miss your brother-in-law?”
A weird reaction, like ants crawling all over, made Chen Xinyu feel hot and itchy, and those images began to erge in her mind.
anwhile, Wang Lei felt incredibly mixed; he didn’t know whether to stay or make an excuse to leave.
He thought attending that VIP session and knowing Mr. Shen was impressive, bragging about it in front of two junior classmates.
But he didn’t expect Mr. Shen’s own sister to be here.
Damn, how embarrassing.
Crap, did I forget to check the almanac before leaving today?
Staying here would beco more awkward when Mr. Shen arrived and wouldn’t even recognize him.
But if he left now, after just agreeing to treat the two junior classmates to a al, that would make him look even worse as the failed show-off, surely causing Chen Xinyu to think poorly of him.
Thinking this, Wang Lei gritted his teeth and stayed.
…
“Mr. Shen, apart from this anti-tumor nano drug project, we also have a large aircraft ground dynamics test platform project; would you like to take a look?”
On the second floor, Wei Zhuo politely inquired.
Wei Zhuo thought it would be good enough if Shen Yuan funded one project, and proposing another might seem too greedy, so he asked Shen Yuan’s opinion first.
“Let’s have a look, I’m here anyway. But I’ll head down later to et my sister and my niece… and my sister’s friend. Let’s et again at two.”
“Okay, Mr. Shen, we won’t disturb you then, I’ll contact you at two.”
So, Shen Yuan and the university leaders separated in the cafeteria, agreeing to et again at 2 pm.
During the lunchti, Nanzhong University students crowded the place, making it hard to spot anyone, but finally, Shen Yuan found them under Shen Xuan’s waving hand.
It had been more than half a month; Chen Xinyu was wearing black-rimd glasses, adding a literary look to her appearance and a brush of makeup made her features more distinct.
High-waist bell-bottom jeans paired with a tight-fitting white T-shirt accentuated her shapely figure.
Hmm, my niece is growing up.
“Brother, treat us to lunch, let’s eat out!”
Shen Xuan shouted, ready to dig into Shen Yuan’s wallet.
Beside her, Chen Xinyu was more timid, shyly calling out: “Bro… brother-in-law.”
Wang Lei also stood up, scratching his neck awkwardly, feeling quite redundant. When Shen Yuan’s gaze passed over him, he braced himself to say, “Shen, Mr. Shen.”
When Shen Yuan looked puzzled, Wang Lei explained further: “I was also at the lab just now.”
“Oh, so you’re here because?”
Shen Yuan sized him up, guessing he must be a junior or senior. Shen Xuan and Chen Xinyu didn’t have such a wide social circle, so he must be chasing after one of them.
Shen Xuan was average-looking with not many pursuers, so he must be after Chen Xinyu.
Ho-ho, coveting my niece, eh? That’s bold.
“Um, just ca over to say hi to the two juniors and chat.”
Wang Lei was stumbling over his words, feeling the inexplicable pressure from Shen Yuan.
Crap, is this the presence of soone superior?
But since he’s chasing Chen Xinyu, not Mr. Shen’s sister, there shouldn’t be a big problem, right?
