Chapter 1154: Chapter 1154: I Just Like This About Her.

...

Shen Mianmian and Lu Siyuan walked to the roadside. As Shen Mianmian took out her phone to call the driver, a car stopped in front of them. He Nan got out of the car, and Shen Mianmian’s eyes lit up as she immediately called out, "Big Brother He."

Just like five years ago, every time Shen Mianmian called him Big Brother He, her voice was crisp and pleasant to the ear.

Lu Siyuan pursed his lips and then called out as well, "Big Brother He."

He Nan stood next to Shen Mianmian before turning to Lu Siyuan. "When did you get back?"

"I arrived yesterday." Lu Siyuan glanced at Shen Mianmian and complained on purpose, "Mianmian promised to pick me up from the airport with Xiaoxi, but she was nowhere to be seen and didn’t even call. I only found out through the newspapers that it was because you came back. Both the Shen Mianmian from five years ago and now are the type to prioritize romance over friendship."

The corners of He Nan’s mouth curved into a smile. "That’s exactly what I like about her."

Lu Siyuan looked genuinely exasperated. "Fine, you two take turns flaunting your love in front of me. I can’t take it anymore. Hurry up and go back! Tonight, you definitely have to treat me to a big meal to welcome me home. I’m a returnee from overseas now."

Shen Mianmian chuckled. "Get in the car; tonight, we’ll definitely treat you right."

So the three of them got into the car together. Throughout the ride, Lu Siyuan talked nonstop about his experiences abroad over the years, mostly complaining about not being used to the food there and regretting his decision to go overseas. He felt that if he had stayed in China for those five years, his development would definitely have been quite good.

Shen Mianmian laughed at him for not recognizing his blessings. Over the years, Lu Siyuan’s family business had done very well and had already gone public. Lu Siyuan was a true rich second-generation, envied by many for his life, yet he was never satisfied.

Now that he was back, if he wanted to start a business, he had the funds and resources. If not, he could directly inherit his father’s industry and be set for life. How many fewer years would he need to struggle?

Lu Siyuan mocked Shen Mianmian as being shallow. "I’m not like you, content with just being a property owner. I’m thinking about further expanding the family business now so that just hearing my name will make others feel awe."

"You just keep striving!" Shen Mianmian said with a relaxed and contented expression. "I think everything is just fine now. I can go for beauty treatments and workouts whenever I like, act when I feel like acting, and if not, Big Brother He will take care of me. Taking Xiaobei around to eat and drink—life’s peak is nothing more than this."

Life is but a few short decades, and she had already earned quite a bit of money. Now, spending time with her loved ones and enjoying life was quite nice.

Lu Siyuan clicked his tongue. "Way too shallow."

After the pair bantered back and forth, they arrived at their destination. Shen Mianmian assigned Lu Siyuan the task of buying groceries. She went with He Nan to pick up the child from Fu Hua’s place. Before leaving, she also made a call to Yang Xiaoxi.

Hearing that Lu Siyuan was back, Yang Xiaoxi left Cheng Feiyang in the lurch and hurried over. Cheng Feiyang was so jealous that his eyes were practically spinning; without a word, he followed her. Seeing Yang Xiaoxi chatting and laughing happily with Lu Siyuan, Cheng Feiyang couldn’t help but roll his eyes incessantly in sourness.

Lu Siyuan saw this and almost burst into laughter.

"Cheng Feiyang, back in the day, I really couldn’t have imagined that you two would end up together. If I had known, I would have gone a bit easier on you."

Cheng Feiyang, as if a sensitive nerve had been hit, immediately pressed, "What do you mean?"

In fact, he had already guessed what was coming, yet he awaited Lu Siyuan’s confirmation.
