With global currency devaluation, I'll wear these back and take my whole family flying!

Upon finding Shen Tao's account, Shen Ci instinctively clicked on his profile picture first.

Unlike most young people who use their own photos or other cartoon pictures as their WeChat profile pictures, Shen Tao's WeChat profile picture is a photo of him and his mother.

Such profile pictures are usually used by elders, such as photos with children or family portraits.

It is evident that Shen Tao has a very deep relationship with his mother.

Xiaomin noticed this too and couldn't help but say, "Second Aunt is so good to Tao Tao, but not in a blindly indulgent way. I think Second Aunt is really amazing. Second Uncle's family relies entirely on her. My Second Uncle is the most unreliable person!"

Shen Ci nodded. In fact, it was not hard to see from the results that Shen Tao had been raised very well by Zheng Hong, while Da Bao was obviously spoiled.

Xiao Min, who is also the eldest brother's child, changed her fate entirely through her own efforts, driven by a awakening of self-awareness.

Shen Tao sent the verification message, but did not accept it immediately.

Shen Ci put down her phone and looked at Xiao Min, saying, "You didn't go home last weekend, and your aunt has been nagging you about it several times. You should make time to go home every weekend in the future, so that your aunt can see you and feel at ease."

Xiaomin looked guilty upon hearing this: "Is that so? I was thinking that my aunt is pregnant and might need a quieter environment, so I won't go back and bother her."

"How could it be a disturbance? She would definitely worry if you didn't show up for half a month."

Hearing her sister say that, Xiaomin immediately realized she had misunderstood and quickly nodded, saying, "I understand, sister. I'll go back this Friday night."

Lianxing watched the two sisters talk, her heart filled with envy. Finally, she couldn't help but say, "Darling, I really envy you. Your younger brother and sister are both so capable that they can get into universities in Longcheng. My relatives' brothers and sisters are all useless. They can't even get into university. They all rely on their families to send them abroad to some low-ranking foreign universities to get a 'gilded' degree."

"I wish I had younger siblings studying in Longcheng, like you and Xiaomin, so we could meet up for meals and go shopping together."

Upon hearing this, Shen Ci replied without hesitation, "That's easy. What's mine is yours. From now on, just treat Xiaomin like your own little sister and spoil her. I won't be jealous."

"I've long considered Xiaomin my own sister." Gu Lianxing said to Xiaomin, "Xiaomin, if your sister hadn't stopped me, I wouldn't have given you these secondhand items. I would have taken you to buy new ones long ago."

Shen Min was both happy and touched, and felt very content: "Sister Lianxing, these are already very, very good. I have never worn such expensive clothes before, and most of them are brand new. You have such good taste, I like them all very much."

Lianxing loved hearing that last sentence the most, and immediately showed a smug expression: "Of course, my taste is no less than your sister's."

Shen Ci subconsciously replied, "Indeed, and the item that best showcases your good taste is right here next to you."

Gu Lianxing turned to look at Jiang Lingchuan, only to see him gazing at her with tender eyes and a slight smile, instantly making her feel incredibly handsome.

She turned to look at Shen Ci and had to admit, "He really is handsome. How come I didn't notice before?"

Shen Ci: "That means your taste used to be quite average."

Lianxing immediately rolled her eyes.

Watching her two best friends bicker, Xiaomin couldn't help but laugh, but the next second, her smile froze on her face and disappeared.

Her gaze fell on the shop entrance, where a boy was waving at her from afar.

Shen Ci was sitting right next to her, so she saw it too. She turned her head to look at Xiao Min and asked, "A classmate?"

"Mmm," Xiaomin responded, and the other person quickly walked up to her.

"Shen Min." The boy called Xiao Min's name directly, looking at her as if no one else was around, and said, "I didn't see you in the cafeteria. Sun Yixin said you were here, so I came looking for you."

The boy acted very generously, and his purpose was very clear: he was there to find Xiaomin.

Shen Ci glanced at the two of them with surprise, then exchanged a glance with Lian Xing, who had the same expression. They instantly understood each other and leaned back slightly.

Before Shen Min could even speak, her face had already turned red, and she was clearly nervous: "What do you want from me?"

"I'd like to invite you to dinner. Are you free this weekend?" the boy asked without any hesitation. "Thank you for lending me your notes before."

"I'm busy."

Shen Min blurted out her refusal; she genuinely didn't have time, as she was going back to visit her aunt on the weekend.

The boy wasn't annoyed by the rejection; instead, he patiently asked, "When are you free? I'm free anytime. I'll take you to a really delicious restaurant."

Shen Min's face was already flushed red to her neck. She lowered her eyes, not daring to look at the other person, and hurriedly replied, "Anything but the weekend is fine, whatever."

She wanted the other person to leave as soon as possible.

Seeing her sister's embarrassment and knowing that the boy wanted a specific time, Shen Ci simply said, "Next Tuesday night, you pick her up downstairs at the dormitory."

Seemingly surprised that Shen Ci would suddenly speak up to help Shen Min make a decision, the boy was taken aback for a moment, then turned to Shen Min and politely asked, "Is it okay?"

Shen Min nodded.

Seeing this, the boy grinned and said, "Then I'm leaving. I'll pick you up on time next Tuesday."

As he left, he finally nodded to the others before turning around and jogging away, his back view radiating happiness.

Shen Ci watched the boy run off into the distance, then looked at Xiao Min, whose face was flushed, and couldn't help but laugh: "Why are you blushing so much? Is it your boyfriend?"

"No, it's not my sister..." Xiaomin quickly denied, her cheeks still burning: "It's just a classmate. He said he was thanking me for lending him his notes."

"Why are you blushing like that, classmate?" Shen Ci leaned closer and teased deliberately, "Do you like him?"

Lianxing deliberately chimed in, "I think this boy likes Xiaomin."

"Oh, really, no, I just felt awkward in front of you guys. We're really just classmates," Xiaomin tried her best to explain.

Seeing that her face was almost burning, Shen Ci stopped teasing her and simply said in a calm tone, "If you like someone, just admit it. It's nothing. You're in college now. It's normal to meet a guy you like and date him. Don't be shy."

"Sister, I really didn't..."

"I know, I just wanted to say that you can date and don't feel shy."

Xiaomin then nodded gently.

Shen Ci then added seriously, "But remember to protect yourself and be sure to take safety precautions."

Xiaomin's face turned bright red again.

At the same time, Lianxing felt a warmth from Jiang Lingchuan's hand under the table; he had secretly taken hers. She glanced at him and met his eyes, her face flushing red, and her heart began to race.

Shen Ci was experienced and observed the three people's expressions, knowing exactly what each person was thinking.

But she just smiled knowingly and didn't say anything more.
