Chapter 2120: Wen Yuan (14) Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios Shang Qingmo had many friends. She used to stick to him in the past years, and she was in almost all the groups he was added to. For example, Shang Qingmo had a childhood friend group. They grew up together and even went to school together. However, they had developed separately. Some were in other cities, while others were busy in the same city. During the occasional gatherings, she would stick close to them and fight with them. Compared to the other groups, this group chat was more open. On Thursday night, Shang Qiqi took a shower and went to bed. There were nearly a hundred messages in the group chat. There was also her red reminder. She clicked on it curiously and congratulated Shang Qingmo. Confused, she clicked on her message. The message log jumped rapidly to the message that had tagged her— @QiqiLittlePrincess, come and reveal the news. What’s your aunt’s name? It’s best to expose a photo! Shang Qiqi was stunned. Her aunt? She subconsciously scrolled through the message history. It turned out that someone had sent a red packet in the group to celebrate. After the others congratulated her, the topic shifted to Shang Qingmo. All sorts of messages were sent to Shang Qingmo. Probably because he was impatient, he appeared and sent a shocking message— If you’re not alone, don’t disturb me with less than a hundred thousand yuan. “F*ck!” “Oh my god!” “You’re the boss of Huachen TV, why are you so secretive about your relationship?” “Which family’s young lady?” “@QiqiLittlePrincess, come and reveal the news. What’s your aunt’s name? It’s best if you reveal a photo!” After that, there were comments and congratulatory messages. She stared at the message on her phone screen, her heart numb and cold. Her fingers hovered over the screen for a long time before she finally tapped on the dialog box. The keyboard popped up. Even through the screen, she forced herself to smile as her trembling fingers landed on the keyboard. “No comment. But my little aunt is very pretty~~” Hearing her words, the people in the group became even more curious. They shouted for Shang Qingmo to introduce them. After a while, Shang Qingmo pulled someone in. “If you have any questions, ask me directly.” The group chat was silent for a few seconds before it exploded again. “F*ck, Sister-in-law?” “Is that so?” “Sister-in-law? Who are you?” “Hello everyone, I’m Song Yunshu.” “Hello, Sister-in-law.” “Hello, Sister-in-law.” “Please take a photo.” Song Yunshu… What a nice name. Shang Qiqi closed the chat silently as the woman she had seen in the villa flashed across her mind. Such a beautiful person, such a beautiful name. Standing beside Shang Qingmo, they were indeed compatible. The next day. Shang Qingmo announced the marriage. All the major media outlets reported about this matter. She also dug out Song Yunshu’s family background. The Song family was the daughter of the largest private hospital in Ping Cheng City. She had a doctorate and was now a resident doctor in a certain department of their hospital. Logically speaking, she could directly get the position of an attending physician with her doctorate, but she didn’t. She chose to start as a resident doctor. Her actions could not be criticized. Even when her identity was revealed online, not many people found fault with her. Most of them thought that the two of them were compatible. That woman was indeed the woman from that night. It was said that the two of them had known each other for a long time. Shang Qiqi thought about it and realized that she had not found any clues. Almost everyone in school was discussing today’s big news. Someone even ran to her and congratulated her on having such a beautiful aunt. She thought it was funny. She carried her book into the multimedia classroom and habitually found a seat in the middle of the classroom. Not long after, Han Ji sat down beside her. “Are you okay?” Shang Qiqi glanced at him with a smile and nodded. She lowered her head and opened the book. “Is it obvious?” “What?” “I like Uncle.” Han Jichi paused. “It’s obvious.” Hearing this, Shang Qiqi nodded calmly. Han Jichi stared at her for a long time. “What are you thinking about?” Shang Qiqi suddenly sneered. “I’m thinking… He’s so smart. After so many years, how can he not see my obvious intentions towards him? He even allowed me to stay by his side?” Han Jichi frowned. * On Friday afternoon, Shang Qingmo called Shang Qiqi to pick her up. He personally drove the car and parked it at the entrance of the school. Through the car window, he saw Shang Qiqi wearing a simple blue and white ice silk dress. Her V-neck exposed her white collarbone, and the red pendant necklace on it made her look even fairer and more exquisite. Her long hair naturally fell to her shoulders and swayed as she walked. She had her arms crossed and there were two books stuck on her chest. At this moment, she was walking out with her head tilted and chatting with the classmate beside her. Her smile was as beautiful as a flower. All these years, he had watched her grow up. From a seven-year-old girl with a face full of baby fat, she had transformed into someone who could not be moved. No one knew any changes in her better than her. She was the flower he had painstakingly nurtured… When they reached the school gate, Shang Qiqi waved goodbye to her classmates with a smile. Then, she looked at his car. The smile on her face faded a little, but she still walked over. Shang Qiqi thought that she had done well, although it was a little deliberate. However, when she instinctively placed her hand on the door handle of the passenger seat, the beautiful and familiar face that was revealed through the car window made her smile freeze for a moment. She subconsciously looked up at the driver, but she could only see the well-defined hand on the steering wheel. A few seconds later, she composed herself and greeted Song Yunshu with a smile. “Hello, Auntie.” Song Yunshu smiled beautifully. “Hello.” Shang Qiqi turned around and walked to the back. She opened the car door and got in. Ever since she got into the car, Song Yunshu had been smiling at her. He asked about her major and other matters in school. Then, he naturally mentioned if she had a boyfriend. Shang Qiqi shook her head, no longer trying to make Shang Qingmo jealous. “Not yet.” “How can you not date in university? You’re at such a beautiful age. Qiqi is so smart and beautiful. There must be many people pursuing you, right?” Shang Qiqi smiled. “I’m fine.” Shang Qiqi was indeed being humble. Song Yunshu wasn’t surprised. “You have many choices…” “She’s focused on her studies now. It’s not time for her to fall in love.” Shang Qingmo, who had been driving silently, suddenly interrupted Song Yunshu coldly. 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖 “When will you stop dating in university?” “Dating too early can’t withstand the consideration of time. When we graduate, we’ll go our separate ways. It’s a waste of time. There’s no need.” “So what if we’re going our separate ways? As long as we’re in love, girls will follow him wherever he goes. Don’t you think so?” It was clearly a topic centered around her, but Song Yunshu and Shang Qingmo were arguing. But Song Yunshu pulled her back in time. Shang Qiqi was caught off guard by the question. After pondering for a while, she replied seriously, “Yes.” Song Yunshu looked at Shang Qingmo smugly. Shang Qingmo’s face darkened and her thin lips pursed into a sharp line. He didn’t speak again. Shang Qiqi could only chat with Song Yunshu passively. Shang Qingmo had probably informed her family, so her family wasn’t surprised by Song Yunshu’s arrival. Shang Qiqi got out of the car with her book. Song Yunshu had already grabbed Shang Qingmo’s arm and was walking towards the door. She followed behind them and sighed in her heart. It was indeed pleasing to the eye. She walked slowly to the door and heard Old Master’s hearty laughter. “Sit, don’t stand on ceremony.” “Okay, thank you, Uncle.” Song Yunshu was poised and the Old Master was obviously satisfied with her. Shang Qingmo took off her coat and sat on the sofa. With Old Master’s order, Song Yunshu sat beside Shang Qingmo. Shang Qiqi retracted her gaze and stepped into the living room. “Grandpa, I’m back.” Shang Yekun looked up at her and greeted her with a smile. “Have you met your future aunt?” “Yes, I have!” The old man’s shrewd eyes were fixed on Shang Qiqi’s face. Seeing that there was nothing unusual, he pulled her to sit beside him. “I saw on the news that the engagement ceremony is scheduled for July 17th?” Shang Qingmo nodded. “Yes, it’s summer vacation. It’s convenient for Qiqi too. I can bring my classmates over to play.” Shang Qiqi’s lips twitched. How many times did he have to tell her to give up? Even the wedding had to be arranged for her during the summer break. “Oh… Then should I fork out some money?” This question sounded a little stupid, but it made the old man laugh. “You little girl, you’re a junior. Naturally, you don’t have to fork out money. What are you thinking?” “So I’m only responsible for eating and drinking?” “Naturally.” At this moment, Song Yunshu suddenly smiled and said, “Qiqi, you can consider being my bridesmaid in the future.” These words made the smile on Old Master’s face fade. “The bridesmaids have to attend the wedding ceremony, right? We’ll discuss this carefully then.” Shang Qiqi stood up. “Grandpa, I’ll go up and change my clothes. I’ll get Aunt Zhang to call me for dinner later!” The old man replied dotingly, “Okay, okay!” Dinner was considered peaceful. Song Yunshu didn’t pick up food for her like the other women did. However, Shang Qingmo wasn’t staying at the main house tonight. He wanted to send Song Yunshu back to the city. As for whether he wanted to send her back to the Song family or his own apartment, no one knew. At the thought of this, her heart felt like it had been pierced by needles. After dinner, when Song Yunshu went to the washroom, Old Master said to Shang Qingmo sternly, “Have you really decided? Marriage is not a game, let alone a marriage alliance. If you really want to go back on your word, you won’t be the only one who has the final say. Shang Qingmo, let me ask you one last time. You have to get married, right?” Shang Qingmo’s face darkened. “I know what I’m doing. If I didn’t value marriage so much, I wouldn’t have waited until now to make this decision.” Shang Qiqi understood what he meant. He was serious. Because he respected marriage, he didn’t get married easily in the past. Because he valued marriage, he decided that marriage was a prudent choice. Shang Qiqi sat there with her back straight. The smile on her lips seemed to be carved there. “Little Uncle.” After a long while, she couldn’t help but ask. Under the gaze of her grandfather, she turned to look at Shang Qingmo. “Do you love her?” Shang Qingmo’s eyes seemed to be covered by a thick black fog. “It’s just a carefully considered exchange of value.” Shang Qiqi looked at him in shock. After a while, Shang Qiqi chuckled as if she had realized something. Old Master Shang pursed his lips and remained silent. “Looks like this is the difference between a man and a woman. I don’t know what other women think, but I feel that love is spiritual food. I have to live for love no matter what. Although you’re my elder, I can’t agree with your thoughts.” She stood up and went upstairs. Shang Qingmo stared at her back coldly, his eyes filled with emotions. Should she live for love? Old Master Shang sighed and said, “Since you’ve decided, I won’t interfere in your matter. I’ve also discussed this with Qiqi. Her attitude is clear.” “Oh right, she didn’t go to class on Monday. The young master of the Han family came to visit in the afternoon. That young master doesn’t have any bad character. His grades are good and he doesn’t hide his fondness for Qiqi. The Han family has a good relationship with us. After thinking about it, there’s no one more suitable for Qiqi than him. I plan to matchmake them when I have the chance.” Shang Qingmo raised her eyes slowly and looked at the Old Master. She said in a low voice, “Qiqi’s studies are more important now. It’s not suitable for her to date now.” “Qiqi is so smart. So what if they’re dating? Both of them are outstanding children. Isn’t it good for them to improve together? Moreover, I’m not worried that she will choose someone else and marry someone else. It’s difficult for me to even see her!” “I’ve heard that Qiqi gets along well with him in school. This means that Qiqi still has feelings for him. As long as the two of them get along, it’s natural for them to have feelings for each other.” “You don’t have to worry about Qiqi. What’s important now is your engagement ceremony and your future marriage. In the future, it will be your own child…”
