She is my childhood sweetheart, how could I not understand her?

Chapter 173 "Son, You're Better Than Me"

The confidence that I had accumulated with great difficulty was easily shattered the moment I saw Uncle Xu.

He pretended to be calm and called out "Uncle", then looked at Sun Yu beside him.

"aunt."

"Hey~ Xiao Shen has gained weight~"

Sun Yu stood up cheerfully, squeezed Chen Shen's arm and joked.

Chen Shen nodded embarrassedly: "I didn't play enough basketball."

"Do you play games in the dormitory every day?"

"That's not the case."

Making games is not the same as playing games, there is a huge difference.

"You should lose some weight. You looked so good in your senior year of high school."

"Go away, you're not fat at all. Don't listen to your aunt's nonsense. Your body shape is just right, don't lose weight blindly." Uncle Xu quickly spoke up, then smiled at the nervous Chen Shen and waved at him.

This posture instantly made Chen Shen's heart rise to his throat. He sat on the sofa as steady as a rock, with no intention of getting up at all: "Uncle, what's wrong?"

"Come here, uncle tells you something."

".Can't you just say it here?" Chen Shen kept calling out to Xu Suiyou in his heart, but unfortunately, Xu Suiyou, who was sitting in his house and chatting happily with Wu Yun, did not hear his voice.

Sun Yu smiled and reminded, "It's a matter of years."

???

Aunt, do you know that what you said made me even more panicked?

With this mood, Chen Shen stood up and followed Uncle Xu into the kitchen.

Then, Uncle Xu who entered the kitchen changed his expression instantly, and his expression was so serious that Chen Shen couldn't help but want to run away.

But he failed to escape, not because he was calm, but mainly because the door was blocked by Uncle Xu.

"Xiao Shen, tell your uncle the truth."

".ah?"

"Does Suisui have a boyfriend in college?"

Chen Shen was stunned for a long time before he digested the question.

He gradually straightened his slightly bent waist, and the expression on his face changed from subtle at the beginning to natural.

Didn't it get noticed?

This scared him.

"Uh, Sui Sui?"

"Correct."

"No! Absolutely not! As far as I know, although she has some male friends, they are all classmates. The only boy who is close to her is me!"

Chen Shen answered Uncle Xu's question with a serious face.

There is not an ounce of falsehood in these words.

"Really?"

"real!"

"Haha, I feel relieved then."

Seeing Uncle Xu's instantly relaxed expression, Chen Shen asked with a guilty conscience, "But Uncle, Suisui is going to college now, do you still need to control her like this?"

"She's not even 20 years old yet, she doesn't know anything, what if she gets fooled?"

It was difficult for Chen Shen to comment on this, mainly because he could not imagine Xu Suiyou being deceived by someone.
Eh? No, it seems like he always tricks her.

For example, rubbing against something
"Uncle, you may be overthinking it."

"Hey, I leave it to you, Xiao Shen!"

Chen Shen nodded, looking serious: "Don't worry, uncle, I will never let any man other than me get close to Sui Sui!"

"Okay, okay, I feel relieved to have your uncle here."

After greeting the two elders, my mother and Xu Suiyou also came over.

Aunt Sun is cooking today, so naturally we have to eat here.

However, even though Chen Shen rarely comes back, he was still given a glorious mission, which was to ride an electric bike to buy soy sauces.

Although the adults of the two families often gathered together to eat and drink, the house became much quieter after the two of them went to the capital to study.

It's rare that it's so lively today, so naturally the two fathers want to have a drink.

How can one drink without snacks? So this job fell on Chen Shen.

He was not unhappy about it. He put on his coat, put on his shoes, took the electric car key and went out.

Because the sauce shop was not far away and only took two minutes to get there by electric bike from the community, Xu Suiyou did not follow.

Soon, Chen Shen, who had bought pork head, old ham and some braised beef, returned home. After handing the food to his mother, he walked out of the kitchen holding a small piece of ham.

After taking a look at Xu Suiyou who was sitting on the sofa, he naturally fed the sausage in his hand to Xu Suiyou's mouth.

But he regretted it after he did this, because Uncle Xu and his father were staring at him not far away.

While he was buying the soy sauce, his father had already returned home.

In an instant, Chen Shen was sweating profusely, but fortunately he still had a smart brain.

People can always burst out abilities far beyond common sense in critical moments. In just a short moment, Chen Shen thought of a way to solve this dilemma.

He quickly took away the sausage that was fed to Xu Suiyou's mouth, and then under Xu Suiyou's gnashing gaze, he smiled slyly: "Hey~ Let you smell it~"

Well, this despicable look is the same as usual Chen Shen.

Xu Suiyou's anxious heart finally settled down. She almost opened her mouth to accept Chen Shen's feeding. After all, this scene often happened in the apartment.

Afterwards, Xu Suiyou, who was furious, could not control his emotions and kicked Chen Shen in the butt.

Well, this irritable look is also Xu Suiyou's usual self.

Chen Shen, who escaped the disaster, took the kick obediently, then strolled to his father and Uncle Xu, chatting with the two elders as if nothing had happened.

After a while, the big table at home was filled with various noodle dishes, and in the middle was the braised meat that looked very appetizing.

Lo mein is a specialty of Tianjin. It is made by pouring toppings on handmade noodles and topped with colorful vegetables such as cucumbers and beets, giving it a very festive feeling.

Because of this, lo mein has become the food that Tianjin people eat when celebrating something.

For example, a birthday or a wedding.

Today, my two children who were studying away from home came home, which is naturally something worth celebrating, and lo mein is a perfect choice.

As usual, the two families raised their glasses first. Because they were so happy, my mother and Aunt Sun also poured themselves a little white wine and sipped it.

The two adult children were drinking Coke obediently and sitting together as usual.

After they finished raising their glasses, Xu Shuxian asked, "How do you feel about college?"

Chen took a deep breath and did not answer directly. Instead, he decided to confront the issue before the noodles were cooked.

Xu Suiyou gently reached out and secretly pinched Chen Shen's big hand behind his back, giving Chen Shen encouragement in this way.

"Dad, Mom, I want to talk to you about something."

My mother was stunned, while my father raised his eyebrows and his expression gradually became serious.

As parents, how can you not understand your own children?

Even Uncle Xu and Aunt Sun put down their chopsticks at the same time and cast a puzzled look at their daughter.

Xu Suiyou shook his head slightly, raised a smile, and said nothing, but just looked up at Chen Shen who had stood up. "I knew this kid had something to do when he came back."

Wu Yun ignored her husband and looked at Chen Shen who stood up with a worried look on her face.

"What's wrong, Xiao Shen? Tell mom something."

"Mom and Dad, do you remember the game I was playing during the holidays?"

".The game you said you wanted to make?"

"Yes, the game I made was released last week."

"Release?" The older generation doesn't quite understand the game sales model.

Xu Suiyou on the side quickly explained: "It's just made and put online for people to buy."

"Ah~"

"This is a good thing. It's okay, Xiao Shen."

Before Uncle Xu could say a few words of praise, Sun Yu gently pushed him and he shut his mouth obediently.

"What happened to the game?"

Chen took a deep breath and grinned, "I just accidentally sold them quite well."

After hearing this, Wu Yun, who was originally worried, finally felt relieved. She was really afraid that Chen Shen would tell some bad news.

It turns out to be a good thing. This unfortunate child, not only did he announce the good news, but he also whetted his appetite.
Wu Yun was so angry that he slapped Chen Shen twice, making a loud "pa pa" sound on Chen Shen's back.

Old Chen also breathed a sigh of relief visibly and took a sip of the wine.

Uncle Xu at the side couldn't help but ask, "Poor kid, why are you taking good things so seriously?"

"I'm just afraid of scaring my parents, you and my aunt."

"Come on, your dad and I have been through a lot, how much do you want to sell it for? I'm just showing off to you."

"Not much, probably about 300 million now." Chen Shen scratched his face, trying to look calm, but he couldn't suppress the corners of his lips, which rose slightly.

"Just over 300." Uncle Xu continued subconsciously, but suddenly realized that he seemed to have missed a unit and his voice paused. His eyes widened and he looked at Chen Shen, who was grinning beside him, in disbelief.

"Young Master Duoduo?"

"More than 300 million. To be exact, about 360 million. But it should be more than that now."

The entire table was silent, and the four adults all stood with their mouths open, looks of disbelief on their faces.

Finally, it was Uncle Xu who came back to his senses first. He couldn't help but frowned and said, "Don't make fun of adults. I won't stop your dad from beating you up later."

Although the other three elders didn't say anything, they meant almost the same thing.

Making fun of adults is no small matter, it is extremely impolite. If Chen Shen was really teasing them with this kind of thing, Old Chen would really swing a stick.

Chen Shen naturally understood all this. His family was a family that attached great importance to politeness, and he would never dare to joke about such things even if he was beaten to death.

"Really? If you don't believe me, ask Sui Sui!" Chen Shen had no other choice but to take out his ultimate weapon.

Compared with his insignificant credibility, Xu Suiyou's statement was firmly believed by several adults from childhood to adulthood.

The four adults looked at Xu Suiyou together, and only after Xu Suiyou nodded slightly did they look at each other in confusion.

"Are you really not kidding?"

Looking at his father's bewildered expression, Chen Shen nodded, his mouth grinning from ear to ear: "Really."

".360 million?"

"Well, the amount you get may be less, but it will be at least over 100 million."

After listening to Chen Shen's answer again, the four adults stood up together.

Even though Xu Suiyou testified this time, the adults obviously still did not believe Chen Shen.

The main reason is that this matter is too bizarre, and they must confirm whether Chen Shen has been deceived by someone.

Fortunately, all of this was within Chen Shen's expectations. He looked at Xu Suiyou, and Xu Suiyou wisely got up and turned on the computer.

The two families walked to the computer together, until Chen Shen opened the background and showed the background data to the elders.

If we really come to the point, the piles of money are definitely more convincing, but Steam hasn't paid him yet, and he can't update the game while attending classes at the same time when the lights go out and the power goes out at 11 o'clock at night, so he has to confront his family early.

Fortunately, after listening to his patient explanation and confirming that this was indeed not a scam website or platform, although the adults were still shocked, they at least accepted the fact.

"So your game has sold 36 copies now?"

"Yes, when we came back at noon, it was still a little over 30, and it increased by another 6 this afternoon."

"How much does one serve cost?"

"12."

"What about these 36 million!?"

Even Uncle Xu, who was involved in quite a bit of business, was shocked by the amount.

My father even forgot to smoke his cigarette. He just held it between his fingers, with ashes dripping down.

"I don't get that much. The platform takes 30%, and the Americans take a 70% tax from the remaining 10%. In the end, I only get a little more than half."

Chen Shen recalled the tedious tax deduction content and explained.

"Why does the United States still collect taxes from you?" Uncle Xu asked with a frown, puzzled.

Chen Shen spread his hands helplessly: "This platform is not from our country at all, it is a foreign platform. We don't have such a platform in our country."

"So the money was earned by foreigners?"

"Well, you can understand it this way. This is not the end yet. The engine Unity I use should also take a small cut. After the final payment, I should still have to pay 25% tax, this time it's our domestic tax."

"."

After listening to this long list, Uncle Xu frowned and thought.

After hearing all this, the father finally remembered that he was still smoking. After taking the last puff of the cigarette, he put it in the ashtray.

"So you get about 30% of the sales?"

"Correct."

“Can’t sell it in the country?”

"No, we don't have a platform, and most of the people who buy my games are foreigners."

Wu Yun on the side could no longer contain her excitement. She stepped forward and hugged her son, stopping the two from asking questions.

"That's enough, that's enough. My son is amazing!"

She didn't care how much money she had, nor did she understand any taxes. She only knew that her son had not gotten into trouble and had earned money through his own efforts.

These things have made her very happy as a mother.

Sun Yu on the side also glared at Lao Xu, then winked, and then cheered happily along with Wu Yun.

The two fathers then came to their senses and realized that now was not the time to worry about how much money they had.

The two men walked up to Chen Shen in the same way. Uncle Xu patted his shoulder, while his father smiled with satisfaction and raised his hand to ruffle his hair.

"Good boy." Uncle Xu gave a thumbs up.

The father laughed for a while, then slowly said: "Son, you are better than me."

This simple sentence made Chen Shen unable to suppress his smile any longer.

Probably no child can control his emotions after hearing what his father said.

At least Chen Shen can't do it.
