Chapter 150: Chapter 150 He’s Not Going to be Left on the Shelf

"How did you do it?" Shen Huan couldn’t contain his curiosity, having calculated the possible causes in his mind.

Yet, no matter how many times he calculated it, the result was always the same.

Impossible.

Unachievable.

After confirming that scientific methods couldn’t yield such a result, the staunch materialism at the core of Shen Huan’s belief system began to waver.

Shi Yaoguang, observing his life-questioning expression, said very calmly, "It happened just as you saw. They knocked themselves down."

Seeing her feign innocence as if she had nothing to do with the incident, Shen Huan could only think to himself that he was buying into her nonsense.

Though he didn’t know how she did it...

Anyone with eyes could tell that the pitiful state Hu Yijie and the others were in was her doing.

She just thought she was hiding it well.

Shen Huan silently criticized her, and after he was done, he finally asked, "Are we still going to your friend’s house?"

"Why wouldn’t we go?" Shi Yaoguang asked, puzzled.

Shen Huan touched his nose, "I thought you would be too scared from the shock to continue with the visit."

"Hmm..." Shi Yaoguang pondered, "Maybe I wasn’t as scared as I thought."

Shen Huan forced a smile, "I think I understand."

Shi Yaoguang just smiled without speaking.

Vermilion Bird Street.

Shen Huan’s flashy motorbike attracted several glances as soon as it appeared.

A few elderly uncles and aunties, fanning themselves with hand fans, were moving towards the small park ahead with their stools.

One of the aunties greeted him warmly, "Shen Huan, you’re back!"

Shen Huan nodded slightly as a response.

The auntie looked at him, laughing heartily, "You don’t know yet, do you? Your grandpa is back, and he’s waiting for you!"

Shen Huan’s brow twitched, a bad premonition arising, "My grandpa is waiting for me?"

"Isn’t he just?" the auntie said with a smile, her face blossoming like a chrysanthemum, "Don’t say I didn’t warn you, your grandpa has a big surprise ready for you."

Shen Huan wasn’t at all convinced that his grandpa had any kind of surprise planned for him.

He just hoped his grandpa wouldn’t cause him any trouble.

As Shen Huan silently prayed, the auntie also noticed Shi Yaoguang standing beside him.

A flicker of inquiry crossed her eyes upon seeing Shi Yaoguang.

"Shen Huan, who is this girl with you?"

Shen Huan replied, "A classmate."

"A classmate, huh?" said the auntie, winking slyly, "Is she just a classmate, or your girlfriend?"

Upon hearing ’girlfriend,’ Shen Huan felt unexpectedly uncomfortable and hurriedly said, "She’s just a classmate."

"Oh," the auntie seemed a bit disappointed, "Just a classmate..."

After saying that, her expression suddenly became more tangled, "You know, Shen Huan, aunty has something to remind you of."

"What is it?" Shen Huan was curious; usually, these elders were quite friendly to him, but they had never taken the time to specifically remind him of anything.

Was something up this time?

The auntie shook her fan and lowered her voice, "Your grandpa, he seems to have found himself a young master this time, and he wants to introduce you to his master too."

Shen Huan instinctively protested, "Impossible!"

His old man usually didn’t bother with such trifles.

Seeing his disbelief, the auntie didn’t get annoyed and cheerfully said, "Whether it’s true or not, you’ll find out when you go back. I’m mentioning this so there won’t be any misunderstandings."

She glanced meaningfully at Shi Yaoguang, "Bringing a female classmate home is fine any time, but it’s different if it’s a girlfriend."

Shen Huan was a bit embarrassed and said to Shi Yaoguang, "Don’t misunderstand, the auntie is just too enthusiastic."

"I understand; I won’t misunderstand," Shi Yaoguang nodded knowingly.

Shen Huan smiled, and they continued on.

The motorbike eventually stopped at the Shen Family’s gate.

Shen Huan got off the bike, instinctively wanting to go inside.

He had lifted his foot halfway when he suddenly remembered a question.

He looked back, toward Shi Yaoguang, "You... you wouldn’t happen to be here to meet a friend, would you?"

Shi Yaoguang smiled without a word, the teasing in her eyes said it all.

Shen Huan: "..."

F*ck!

There was something he definitely wanted to say, but upon further consideration, it seemed...

Not so surprising after all.

Shi Yaoguang had said she had an older friend who wanted to introduce her to his grandson.

The aunty from Vermilion Bird Street had said his grandfather was arranging a blind date for him.

Putting it all together, the clues couldn’t be clearer.

Thinking this, his expression became stiff.

Shi Yaoguang, in a very good mood, flashed him a big white smile, "Aren’t you coming in?"

As she spoke, she stepped inside first.

Shen Huan: "..."

Now, he was certain his guess was correct.

Usually, he was either out having a good time or holed up at home.

If there were guests at home, there wasn’t anyone he didn’t know.

Unless...

This guest had come during a time when he was not at home.

Seeing how familiar Shi Yaoguang was with the Shen family home confirmed his suspicion.

Thinking that he was the unfortunate grandson his grandpa had set up with someone who already had a husband, Shen Huan felt a bit complicated.

Shi Yaoguang didn’t care what this young man was thinking; she calmly walked into the main courtyard of the Shen residence.

As she approached, she heard Shen Antai’s booming voice.

"Shen Jizhi, pull yourself together! How many times have I told you, my master will be visiting any minute now, don’t you dare let your father down!"

"Dad, you’ve said it many times, my ears could grow calluses, I’ve memorized what you said long ago."

"What nonsense are you speaking? What’s the use of just remembering? When you meet him, make sure you behave properly!"

"I will, please rest assured, old man."

"Hmph! Whether I can rest easy depends on whether you can live up to my expectations! When my master arrives, make sure you speak well, understood? You must make my master take a fancy to Xiaohuan, got it?"

"Dad... aren’t you asking for something pretty difficult? I’d be happy to market my son, but I fear your master may not like him, sir!"

"That’s why you need to speak up for him! Otherwise, why do you think I arranged to meet my master at the Shen family home?"

"This... Eh, I’ll try then."

Listining to his dad’s and grandpa’s conversation, Shen Huan’s handsome face had turned beet red.

He really was... so embarrassed.

It’s not like he couldn’t find a wife—

Ptui, ptui, ptui!

He wasn’t unable to find a wife, so why were they promoting him like this?

It made him incredibly awkward.

Shi Yaoguang didn’t expect the old man to be so tactless, not wanting to hear any more unpleasant words, she immediately cleared her throat.

Shen Antai immediately noticed her presence, a spark of excitement in his eyes.

"Master!"

Shi Yaoguang gave him a slight nod.

Shen Antai chuckled and was about to speak when he saw his grandson, with a red face, following behind Shi Yaoguang.

"Xiaohuan, you’re back too!"

He said with a loving smile, "Xiaohuan, it’s been half a year, did you miss grandpa?"

Shen Huan forced a smile, "If grandpa missed me, I missed you."
