Reborn not to be a simp, the school beauty's whole family goes crazy

Chen Dong smiled and introduced her to his older sister: "Big sister, this is Meng Ran, my classmate from high school, whom I told you about before. Her surname is Chu."

Chen Xiumei suddenly remembered and laughed, "Oh, so you're Chu Mengran, the classmate my little brother mentioned before, right?"

"Welcome, welcome. She looks like a well-behaved girl."

Chu Mengran lowered her head shyly and said softly, "Hello, sister."

Chen Xiumei looked at Chu Mengran and said kindly, "Mengran, come in and sit down. Today, I'll introduce you to some of our restaurant's signature dishes. I guarantee you'll enjoy them."

Chen Dong said with a smile, "Big sister, you'd better ask the chef at the shop where you work to make a few more of his signature dishes today."

"I need to catch up properly; the college entrance exam really wore us out."

Chen Xiumei naturally nodded with a smile and said, "Don't worry, Dongzi. You've made a lot of money in the stock market recently, so I'll definitely have the chef cook some good dishes."

They found a seat by the window and sat down. Chen Xiumei brought them the menu.

Chen Dong and Chu Mengran looked at the menu and discussed which dishes to order.

"Mengran, do you like spicy food? This Hunan restaurant has really good stir-fried pork with chili peppers."

Chen Dong smiled and looked at Chu Mengran, asking her a question.

Chu Mengran hesitated for a moment and said, "I can only eat a little bit of spice."

Chen Xiumei smiled and said, "It's okay, if you find it too spicy, we also have non-spicy dishes."

"For example, this steamed sea bass is very delicious."

After they ordered, Chen Xiumei went to the kitchen to give instructions to the chef.

Soon, the dishes were served one after another. The aroma was irresistible, making everyone's appetite soar.

During the meal, Chen Xiumei teased Chen Dong and Chu Mengran from time to time.

She smiled and said to Chu Mengran, "Mengran, look how well you and Dongzi match! Do you like my younger brother?"

"Seeing the two of you together makes me want to find someone to date."

Upon hearing this, Chu Mengran blushed even more, wanting to deny it but feeling there was no need to.

She lowered her head, not daring to look at Chen Dong and Chen Xiumei.

Chen Dong quickly came to the rescue, saying, "Big sister, please stop teasing Mengran. She's easily embarrassed. If she runs away in embarrassment, I'll have a problem with that."

Chen Xiumei persisted, saying with a grin, "Dongzi, don't be shy. Mengran is such a wonderful girl, you should really cherish her."

Chu Mengran blushed and whispered, "Sister, please stop talking."

Chen Xiumei burst into laughter when she saw Chu Mengran's shy expression.

Then she said to Chen Dong, "Dongzi, look how shy Mengran is. You'd better treat her better in the future, or your older sister won't forgive you."

Then, Chen Xiumei's eyes lit up and she came up with an idea: to coax Chu Mengran into calling her "elder sister" instead of "older sister" like Chen Dong.

The innocent and pure Chu Mengran was no match for Chen Xiumei, a seasoned veteran of society, and was immediately rendered speechless.

She blushed and nodded in agreement.

"Miss."

Chu Mengran's voice was soft, but it was full of shyness and warmth.

Chen Xiumei smiled with satisfaction and said, "That's right. Come to my place for meals often from now on, and I'll have the chefs cook delicious food for you."

They ate and chatted, creating a warm and pleasant atmosphere.

This lunch not only allowed them to enjoy delicious food, but also made them feel the warmth of family.

In the afternoon, Chen Dong took Chu Mengran to the cinema to watch a romance movie.

Note that it is a romance film, not a romance-action film or an action-romance film.

The movie theater was dimly lit, filled with a warm and romantic atmosphere.

Couples held hands and whispered to each other, waiting for the movie to start.

Chen Dong and Chu Mengran sat in the back row, a seat Chen Dong had specially chosen; those who know, know.

The soft seats enveloped them like clouds.

After the movie started playing, as the plot unfolded...

When Chen Dong saw the scene of lovers kissing in the movie, he couldn't help but look at Chu Mengran.

Chu Mengran seemed to realize something, and her face turned bright red, as red and hot as a ripe apple.

She closed her eyes shyly, but her lips parted slightly, as if anticipating something, and her breathing became rapid.

Chen Dong chuckled as he looked at Chu Mengran's shy expression.

Then he slowly approached her and gently kissed her, just like the romantic scene between the male and female protagonists in a movie.

Chen Dong's large hands also became restless, gently wrapping around Chu Mengran's slender waist.

My fingers gently roamed over her waist, feeling the warmth and softness of her skin.

Chu Mengran's face remained flushed, and she felt her heart pounding as if it were about to jump out of her chest.

A buzzing sound filled my ears, as if the whole world consisted only of their heartbeats and breathing.

After watching the movie, Chu Mengran seemed to wake up from a dream, and looked at Chen Dong with a hint of reproach.

Without saying a word, she kept patting Chen Dong's chest, her cheeks flushed, and said coquettishly, "You're so bad, just now..."

Chen Dong grinned and begged for forgiveness, putting his hands in front of his chest and saying, "I was wrong, I was wrong, I couldn't help myself."

The two chased each other around the movie theater, creating a joyful atmosphere. Their laughter drew the attention of passersby, but they were completely oblivious.

Then, as dusk fell, the afterglow of the setting sun, like a golden veil, slowly faded from the horizon.

Instead, a tranquil, deep blue sky appeared.

The city lights began to twinkle, as if in a dialogue between the earth and the sky.

Chen Dong carried Chu Mengran on his bicycle and headed towards the small jewelry shop that his aunt Chen Guilan had visited at No. 4 Middle School.

The bicycle wheels rolled briskly on the ground, making a rhythmic "gurgle gurgle" sound.

A gentle breeze caressed their cheeks, carrying a hint of nighttime coolness, yet it felt exceptionally comfortable.

The small jewelry store was brightly lit, with all sorts of sparkling ornaments displayed in the window.

Under the light, the ornaments shone like dazzling stars in the night sky, radiating a captivating glow.

Each piece of jewelry seems to have its own story, waiting to be discovered and appreciated.

Third Aunt Chen Guilan and Chu Mengran's mother Chu Yu, who works in the store, are busy organizing the goods in the store.

As Chen Guilan arranged the ornaments, she chatted casually with Chu Yu.

Suddenly, they saw Chen Dong and Chu Mengran enter the store hand in hand.

A smile immediately appeared on Chen Guilan's face, her eyes narrowing into slits as if she had seen some rare treasure.

She quickly put down the jewelry she was holding and went to greet him.

"Oh, you two are finally here."

Chen Guilan's voice was full of joy.

Chu Yu was taken aback.

I never expected to see my daughter and Chen Dong holding hands here.

Chu Yu froze, her hands still busy arranging the jewelry, staring blankly at them.
