Back to my parents when I was seventeen

Chapter 139 Breathing on her cheek

Looking at the father and son in front of her, Sang Menglan had a hunch that they were hiding something from her. She frowned and asked, "You two... do you have any secrets that you haven't told me?"

Shen Xingyan paused, "No."

Sang Menglan narrowed her eyes and looked at Shen Yubai.

Shen Yubai: "Mom, what secrets can we hide from you?"

Sang Menglan thought about it and realized that there really wasn’t one.

But today, the father and son were in such harmony that she couldn't help but have some doubts.

After a moment of silence, Sang Menglan did not pursue the secret for the time being. "Are you sure you want to take Qiongfang's hair?"

Shen Yubai nodded and looked at Shen Xingyan: "Dad, please help me get Uncle Xu's."

Shen Xingyan raised his eyebrows: "You mean, you want both your Uncle Xu and your Aunt Ye?"

Shen Yubai hummed, "This is safer."

"...Okay." Shen Xingyan agreed, "I'll invite your uncle Xu to dinner tomorrow."

After saying that, he looked at Sang Menglan and said, "How about we invite the couple to dinner together?"

"No," Sang Menglan rejected him without any hesitation, "You make your date, and I make mine."

Shen Xingyan: "That's fine."

After finalizing the matter temporarily, Shen Yubai went upstairs first.

After he left, Sang Menglan turned her head and stared at her husband, her eyes full of scrutiny, "What are you and Shen Yubai doing?"

Shen Xingyan played dumb, "What?"

Sang Menglan: "Do you believe what Shen Yubai said?"

"You believe it too, don't you?" Shen Xingyan asked back, "If you didn't believe it, you wouldn't agree."

Sang Menglan opened her mouth, unable to refute for a moment.

She didn't want to believe it, but she had met Ye Qiongfang and Xu Zhiyan more often than the father and son. A long time ago, Sang Menglan felt that Xu Zhiyan's appearance and personality were not like Xu Yiming and Ye Qiongfang at all.

But she had never considered the possibility that she was not their biological daughter.

After all, this is a bit absurd and outrageous.

The Xu family has always been rigorous in their work, so it is unlikely that such a mistake would occur.

When Shen Yubai brought it up tonight, Sang Menglan thought about it carefully. Apart from the fact that Xu Zhiyan looked completely different from Xu Yiming and the others, she really didn't have the temperament of a rich lady.

From childhood to adulthood, Xu Zhiyan was raised in the Xu family's wealth. She had everything she wanted and saw a lot of the world.

When she was in elementary school, she and Shen Yubai were sent to study in summer camps abroad to enrich their extracurricular life. In addition, the Xu family also hired etiquette teachers and talent teachers to teach her at home.

But for some reason, her manners had never been better, and the talents she had learned were only partially understood. She was not at all like the children born to Ye Qiongfang's two smart parents.

Of course, it is not convenient for others to say more about these.

They are not the kind of elders who would put pressure on their children. They just think that if they are not interested, then she should not learn it and just live a comfortable and easy life.

Now that I think about it, it probably has something to do with genes.

She is not Xu Yiming and Ye Qiongfang's biological daughter, so it is normal that she did not inherit their intelligence and cleverness.

"..."

Sang Menglan was silent for a long time, then looked at Shen Xingyan: "Do you think they can accept it if they know?"

Shen Xingyan thought for a moment, "They should know whether they can accept it or not."

Sang Menglan understood what Shen Xingyan meant. She sighed softly, "How could it be such a coincidence."

Shen Xingyan: “Yes.”

"That classmate Yu Bai." Sang Menglan thought, "Have you ever seen him?"

Shen Xingyan: “No.”

He guessed Xu Chuning's identity last time, but he didn't ask Shen Yubai and Shen Sinian too much. He had promised them before that he would not disturb them too much.

Xu Chuning and Shen Yubai are still high school classmates. Even if they know that they will be together in the future, it is not appropriate for Shen Xingyan to interfere at this time. If he does something that causes Shen Sinian to return to the future, it will be bad for Shen Yubai and Xu Chuning to have a deviation.

Therefore, Shen Xingyan has been very restrained and has not paid attention to their future daughter-in-law.

But for now, they have to pay attention.

Sang Menglan nodded. "Can I go take a look?"

"I suggest you don't interfere." Shen Xingyan said, "Get the hair first, send it to the hospital for examination, and then we can discuss it?"

Sang Menglan groaned, "Okay."

The next morning, Xu Chuning and You Shuzhen got up early to open the store.

After resting for a while and reopening the business, Xu Chuning and You Shuzhen thought that there would not be many customers. However, to their surprise, there were more customers than when Xu Chuning was in school.

The mother and daughter were busy all morning and didn't have time to rest until nearly ten o'clock.

"Why are there so many customers all of a sudden?" You Shuzhen rubbed her sore waist, "All the noodles are sold out."

Xu Chu Ning walked to her side and pushed her down to sit on the chair, "Mom, take a rest for a while."

You Shuzhen: "I still have to clean up."

"I'll do it." Xu Chu Ning said, "You sit for ten minutes."

You Shuzhen opened her lips slightly, wanting to refuse.

Before she could finish her words, a familiar voice came from outside, "Aunt You, just listen to Xu Chuning."

The two people in the store raised their heads in unison and looked at the person who appeared at the door.

After a few seconds of silence, Xu Chu Ning was surprised, "Why are you here?"

Shen Yubai hummed, greeted You Shuzhen first, and then answered her, "I was bored at home, so I came to see if there was anything I could help with."

Xu Chu Ning said "oh" and asked after a moment of silence, "Have you had breakfast?"

"I ate it." Shen Yubai said.

He walked to Xu Chu Ning's side and saw the dishes in the basin. "Do you want to wash these?"

Xu Chu Ning nodded: "No, I can do it."

As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Yubai had already sat down on the small stool.

Xu Chuning: “…”

Shen Yubai raised his eyes and said, "Go and clean up the table."

"...Thank you." Xu Chu Ning knew very well that no one could change Shen Yubai's decision. "Call me if you feel tired."

Shen Yubai: “I know.”

Seeing the two of them working together in perfect harmony, You Shuzhen smiled with satisfaction.

After a short break, she joined the two.

Soon, the shop and the dishes used in the morning were cleaned.

There were not many customers coming to the restaurant for lunch at noon, only one or two coming in here and there.

After a busy lunch, the three of them could finally take a break.

After lunch, You Shuzhen said she wanted to go to the shop next door to watch TV for a while and asked the two to help her look after the shop.

Although Xu Chuning felt that You Shuzhen's move was a bit outrageous, she didn't say anything. She knew that You Shuzhen was worried that she and Shen Yubai would feel uncomfortable in the store.

After watching You Shuzhen walk out, Xu Chuning withdrew his gaze and turned around, suddenly meeting Shen Yubai's eyes.

He happened to lean over and look down, his warm breath falling on her cheek.

At that moment, Xu Chu Ning felt as if his heart had stopped beating.

Suddenly, I felt a pain in my scalp.

Xu Chu Ning uttered a sigh and glared at him, "Shen Yubai, what are you doing?"

Shen Yubai's eyelashes were so dense that they looked like a small fan. He stared at Xu Chuning with an innocent look on his face, "You have a white hair on your head."
