In the afternoon, the Sheng family arrived.

He is a former business partner of Sheng Yuan, an old friend who has known him for decades.

Sheng Mingzhi has known this old friend of Sheng Yuan's since he was a child and remembers spending New Year's Eve with the family, so it was no surprise.

Who knew that Sheng Xu was a little impatient, but it didn't show on her face.

Sheng Mingzhi soon knew what Sheng Xu was impatient about.

He was followed by his daughter Chen Lu, 26 years old, who is still studying for her master's degree in medicine in the United States, and is a rare beauty with a high level of knowledge.

Sheng Yuan probably wanted to set him up with Chen Lu with his old friends, and they talked for a while in the afternoon.

Sheng Mingzhi looked at Sheng Xu with glee and thought to himself, "You've had your day, too, with no thought of helping at all.

Sheng Xu, who has managed to get out of the clutches of the clutches, is lying bored in the living room.

Chen Lu is in the kitchen with her mother, and seems to be a very good cook.

And it's not all bad for his brother, it's written all over his face.

Although Sheng Mingzhi was somewhat sceptical about the aesthetics of anyone who could look at his brother.

It is about Sheng Mingzhi's gloating expression that is so obvious.

Caught by Sheng Xu, he said coldly, "What are you looking at?"

Sheng Mingzhi was furious and said, "Look at your future sister-in-law."

Sheng Xu :?

"Don't bother."

"What's bothering you." Sheng Mingzhi didn't understand: "I think Chen Lu is a good girl, she's good in the kitchen, though if you marry her, you'll be too good for her. But fortunately you still have a little bit of my genes in you, so it's not too bad."

Sheng Xu tugged at the corner of her mouth, "You think she's good? You married her?"

"It's not good." Sheng Mingzhi opened his mouth, "Bigamy is against the law."

It is also known that bigamy is against the law.

"Huh."

Sheng Mingzhi muttered, "You're in this condition, why are you still picking? You'll be thirty after the New Year."

"My terms?" Sheng Xu laughed coldly, "Why don't you say Lu Jiayan, who is a few months older than me."

"Oh." Sheng Mingzhi said slowly, "Then not everyone is as lucky as Lu Jiayan to have met me."

Sheng Xu: ......

"Don't you two disgust me together, crawl."

Sheng Mingzhi really thinks Chen Lu is good.

It is probably because he has recently tasted the sweetness of marriage that he has become like Sheng Yuan, always talking about how great it is to be married and can't help but use his happiness to upset his brother, a single dog.

Besides, his brother's marriage has really become the biggest issue in the family at the moment.

"I'm serious. At your age, you haven't even been in a relationship-" as if remembering something, he suddenly stared subtly at Sheng Xu: "You don't really have a crush on Lu Jiayan, do you?"

Sheng Xu almost spat out the water he had just drunk: "Don't make me spit it out again."

"There's more." His brother threw a peanut in his mouth and swept the end of his eyes over him, the same fox eyes as Sheng Mingzhi's, only Sheng Xu looked sharper and colder: "Please watch your language, it's not that you haven't talked once, it's that you have talked once."

"Oh ...... is that the time you got ripped off for 100,000?" Sheng Mingzhi suddenly spoke.

Sheng Xu didn't expect Lu Jiayan to tell Sheng Mingzhi even this shit.

Instantly, he lost all face.

Sheng Mingzhi thought it was subtle and unbelievable: "You call this a relationship? You're just simply being scammed by telecoms, right?"

"None of your business. Adults don't mind children's business."

Just as Sheng Xu finished speaking, the adults from the Sheng Mingzhi family arrived.

Lu Jiayan had just gotten away when he saw Sheng Mingzhi's pale face and spoke up, "What's wrong?"

Before Sheng Mingzhi could tell him that Sheng Xu was bullying him, Sheng Xu pre-empted him by saying, "What can I do? I thought Chen Lu was nice. I said, "Lu Jiayan, are you not good enough?"

As soon as the words left his mouth, Lu Jiayan looked at Sheng Mingzhi for a moment.

Sheng Mingzhi: ......?

Just outrageous?

As soon as Sheng Xu left, Sheng Mingzhi spoke up, "Don't listen to my brother's nonsense."

"Say what?" Lu Jiayan said, "That you think other women are good."

Sheng Mingzhi was speechless: "Can you not be so careful! I mean, I think she's fine as my sister-in-law!"

"Hmm." Lu Jiayan said faintly, "Why?"

A proper court pressed the question.

The point is that Sheng Mingzhi was intimidated by this state of eldership that he held.

For a moment, I didn't notice what was wrong.

"Just." Sheng Mingzhi racked her brain and said quietly, "Don't you think she's smart and can cook."

On second thought, it's true, Sheng Mingzhi counted on her fingers, "And with a high education, it will improve the IQ of my brother's next generation and be gentle ......"

As he spoke, Sheng Mingzhi was silenced.

Lu Jiayan raises an eyebrow.

Sheng Mingzhi said curiously, "Why do I feel that the description is quite like you?"

He is a beautiful cook, gentle and intelligent, just like a male version of Lu Jiayan.

Lu Jiayan said slowly, "Like me?"

Sheng Mingzhi: "Don't you think so?"

Lu Jiayan's expression became a little subtle for a few moments, then seemingly outrageous, he laughed, "You think she looks like me and is therefore a good fit for your sister-in-law?"

Sheng Mingzhi: ......

How the fuck did you come to that conclusion?

Wait, it seems like it.

Sheng Mingzhi remembers thinking that Lu Jiayan was his sister-in-law when he was in junior high school.

The way he picked his sister-in-law has not changed at all since he was a kid.

Lu Jiayan had obviously thought of him in the same way, and Sheng Mingzhi was very distracted by the look in his eyes.

It took a moment before he said, "When you think about it, it doesn't really look that much like that."

He nodded as if to please, sitting meekly beside Lu Jiayan, "It doesn't feel so good for my brother either."

Lu Jiayan spoke coolly: "Didn't it just fit?"

Sheng Mingzhi muttered, "Like after you it wouldn't fit, I'd feel weird if they got married."

He thought for a moment and stressed, "And it's not that much like you."

Lu Jiayan waited to see what he was prepared to do with it.

Sheng Mingzhi immediately said with a straight face, "Because Jiayan is the most beautiful in my heart."

-

Sheng Mingzhi and Lu Jiayan are lounging on the sofa playing games during the New Year's Eve.

Sheng Xu was caught up with Chen Lu and did not return until almost midnight, when the family sat in the living room chatting.

Chen Lu apparently directed the conversation towards Sheng Xu intentionally or unintentionally, but Sheng Xu didn't really pick up on it.

Every now and then he glances at his phone, causing Sheng Mingzhi to be embarrassed for Chen Lu.

Of course, none of this is the most important thing.

The most important thing is that Sheng Xu ignored Chen Lu, who then went to Lu Jiayan to talk to him, as they had both spent time abroad and had a lot in common, and Sheng Mingzhi got upset and kicked Sheng Xu.

"Why do you keep looking at your phone?"

Sheng Xu didn't bother to pay attention to him and said perfunctorily, "I'm not like you, understand? I'll have a lot of friends sending me New Year's messages."

Sheng Mingzhi despises: "What is there to be proud of in a mass text message."

But it really hit a nerve with Sheng Mingzhi... Damn, he really has very few friends!

So far, only Shen Ling has sent him a New Year's message.

The text messages from that group of plastic rich kids are mass texted and have no soul at all.

Sheng Xu looks really busy in general and glances at his phone again.

Sheng Mingzhi was also unconvinced, saying back, "I get a lot of New Year's messages too, right?"

It seemed that fate was helping him, and just as he finished, his phone buzzed and vibrated.

Here's a New Year's message from Jiang Bie.

-Ashu, how are you doing? Happy New Year to you.

"Look at this!!!" Sheng Mingzhi got on Sheng Xu's bad side and showed him the New Year's message as if to show off.

And coincidentally, after Jiang Bie's New Year's message, Ji Jiao also sent a text message.

-Little Mr. Sheng Happy New Year!!! Happy New Year!

Sheng Mingzhi replied in kind: Happy New Year~

Sheng Xu looked at it, suddenly sneered and spoke, "Yes."

Grimly, "The news back to you was pretty quick."

Sheng Mingzhi :?

A bewildered face.

Then the next second, the small hickory nut he had knocked out in front of him was grabbed by Sheng Xu.

--He worked hard to peel Lu Jiayan's little walnuts for half an hour!!!

" Sheng Xu!!!"

Sheng Mingzhi was so angry that he jumped right on him, but he was not as tall as he should have been.

Sheng Xu sneered and stuffed all the fruits of his labour into his mouth, one side bulging like a cold hamster.

Angry, Sheng Mingzhi's eyes burst into tears: "Give it back to me!"

Sheng Xu pushed him away with a grimace.

The two of them were fighting on the sofa.

The noise caught Sheng Yuan's attention and he frowned, "How old are you? You're not playing around, get up!

The brothers' war was stopped by Sheng Yuan.

But Sheng Mingzhi's anger was not yet extinguished, and he was so angry that he hacked all of Sheng Xu's mobile phone numbers and weibo signals.

He also said to Lu Jiayan: "Sheng Xu deserves to be single, you know that? He deserves to be a bachelor for the rest of his life!"

Lu Jiayan also knew he had to go along with him now and coaxed, "Little Mr. Sheng is right."

Then said slowly, "But how do you receive red packets when you've blacked out his WeChat?"

Sheng Mingzhi :?

Shit.

Good point.

As far as sinister and despicable Sheng Mingzhi seems to have never met a better jg than Lu Jiayan

So at zero hour, Sheng Mingzhi mercifully released Sheng Xu from the blacklist.

Sheng Mingzhi: [Happy New Year, Brother o]

The admission of fault looks good.

Sheng Xu looked slightly more relieved and thought to himself that it was good to know he was wrong.

Then by the way, a red packet of 200,000 was sent out.

The red packet was received in seconds.

Sheng Xu: [Happy New Year]

As a result the message failed to be sent.

Rejected by the other person because you are not yet their friend.

In short, it's been pulled again.

Sheng Xu: ......?

Grass?

-

As the clock strikes zero, Sheng Mingzhi follows the crowd and opens Weibo and decides to open for business for a little while.

After picking out a picture of the New Year's Eve dinner, I chose another one with Lu Jiayan.

After choosing one, he showed it to Lu Jiayan: "What if I send this one?"

In the photo, the two are very close together, taken in winter.

Sheng Mingzhi slightly tilts her head as if leaning on Lu Jiayan's shoulder, wearing a dark scarf, and makes a scissors hand, placing it on the side of her cheek with a sweet and healing smile.

But overall, a very decent picture.

At once intimate and less intimate, in keeping with Sheng Mingzhi's deadly character at the microblogging end of the spectrum.

After asking Lu Jiayan's permission, Sheng Mingzhi clicked, and sent.

Sheng Mingzhi: Happy New Year from the Prince of Sandwiches and the Knight of Chilli Oil (except for those who have scolded me)

Lu Jiayan laughed out loud at his childish note.

Sheng Mingzhi muttered, "What are you laughing at, it's supposed to be. Those who scold me will have bad luck for the New Year."

As soon as I refreshed the comments, there were already over a thousand of them.

Sheng Mingzhi experienced for the first time what it was like to be a top streamer.

The little fox's tail was raised again and he pointed out to Lu Jiayan: "I'm very popular now, you have to cherish me or you won't be good enough for me."

That group of netizens after ending the initial couch grab.

Hot off the press came the following.

"Okay, Mei Mei knock to."

"First knock of the New Year."

"Just send a group photo? You're sending out beggars?"

"You remember you have a Twitter feed, huh? The production team donkeys wouldn't dare to rest so much, they haven't tweeted in a month!"

"What did you have for New Year's Eve dinner, it was pretty good, send me some."

......

Sheng Mingzhi swiped down and saw one entry.

"Dad has nominated you for a relationship variety show, grab yourself a chance to get in, it's not easy to find a job after the New Year."

Sheng Mingzhi :?

What relationship variety show?

I was about to ask, and this comment was swiped past me.

He scrolled up and refreshed with a new one:.

"It's important to me that you two tell me if you'll be f**king around at night."

In just one second, Sheng Mingzhi reacted.

The body is faster than the brain, and before Lu Jiayan can see it clearly, he jerks the phone up.

Sheng Mingzhi hurriedly said, "You didn't see that just now, did you?"

Damn, his stupid fans just love to dance around the yellow in his comments too much.

It's not enough to look at it on your own during the week.

Being seen by Lu Jiayan, there's always a sense of ...... being found out by parents.

Lu Jiayan froze for a moment, then playfully said, "What is it that I can't see?"

He paused subtly and spoke, "No. Some of the netizens talk so outrageously that you don't read them."

"Outrageous." Lu Jiayan spoke softly.

Thinking about the comment he had just read, he said slowly, "I think, what he said kinda makes sense?"

Sheng Mingzhi: ......

Lu Jiayan implicitly suggests to him, "After all, it's important for me to be able to do it at night, too."
