100 ways to trick a boy into going to sleep

Chapter 1216 Twelve Hours

Today, many people gathered at the Shi family's old house to pay New Year's visits. They were relatives, both rich and poor, near and far, and it seemed like they all came on the same day!

Shi Qingqing sat bored in the luxurious courtyard, holding a bowl of melon seeds.

With her second brother providing the main source of energy inside, she felt much more relaxed.

"Qingqing, where did your older brother go?"

The woman in front of him looked familiar, but he couldn't remember what to call her, so he simply didn't address her and gave a flat response: "I don't know."

Upon hearing this, the woman went inside to wish the elderly couple a Happy New Year. After listening to their greetings, she learned that the woman was the wife of a distant uncle who had married two years prior.

She said, "You look familiar. Maybe you came here last year."

"I remember Ah Song is still single, right? My family has a little niece who is very pretty, has a good personality, is a top student, and can speak several languages. Bring her over tomorrow so Ah Song can see her. She's a very sensible girl. She just graduated from university this year and has been helping out at the family restaurant since she got home. She's very hardworking!"

Before the elderly couple could even refuse, the other person launched into a long, unending chatter.

“Our Ah Song has a girlfriend now, and he even brought her home for dinner a few days ago.”

The old lady replied with a smile, but compared to her previous polite enthusiasm, she was much colder now.

Upon hearing this, the woman's smile froze. The old lady's words meant she had already approved. However, she wasn't discouraged. This was the Shi family, the richest family in Lin'an City. No matter what method she used, the closer she climbed, the more benefits she would receive. The eldest son had a girlfriend, so the second son could too!

"Our A-Yuan doesn't have a boyfriend either, right? Me!"

He was interrupted by the person involved before he could finish speaking.

"Are you worthy of me picking and choosing? What kind of quality are you?"

The woman immediately blushed deeply after being rebuked!

Her husband stood to the side, but he didn't dare utter a single word in the face of the younger generation's rude remarks!

He was well aware that he was only a distant relative, and he couldn't put on any airs of an elder in front of Shi Qingyuan.

The people who had been talking to Shi Qingyuan fell silent for a moment.

The second son of the Shi family's words, seemingly implying that the woman was trying to introduce a potential partner to the second son instead of the eldest, were actually also subtly criticizing them. After all, before Shi Qingyuan spoke, they were all offering their opinions on the burgeoning Shi family business to each other...

"I'm sorry, Yuan, I didn't mean anything by it, I just mean it."

"You're just bored and have nothing better to do."

Shi Qingyuan lazily grabbed a handful of melon seeds from the coffee table and sat down.

At that moment, the "teachers" around him all looked a little embarrassed.

However, this woman was no ordinary person. If it were anyone else, they would have slunk away long ago in such a humiliating situation. But she was able to calmly sit down and wait for lunch.

At most, it was just a bit quieter, and it stopped trying to get close to the old lady in a clingy way.

The group surrounding Shi Qingyuan dispersed on their own initiative.

The old man glanced at his second grandson, whose lips were curved in a smile, and subconsciously wanted to say something to him, telling him that he should be humble and modest, and not speak so recklessly, as it would easily offend people.

But thinking about the conflicts of the past few days, I finally calmed down and kept quiet.

Suddenly, the roar of a sports car came from outside the courtyard.

I don't know which impolite junior deliberately revved the engine so loudly in the village.

Just as I was thinking about it, that piercing sound landed outside my own yard.

The next second, a handsome man with rainbow-colored long hair and eyelashes stepped out of the top-of-the-line black sports car, one of only one in the world.

A gasp suddenly erupted from the crowd: "My God, it's actually: Cherry Blossom Ice - Azure Sorrow - Nine!"
