My Life with Narration

Chapter 461 - 452: The Wen Family’s Change in Attitude

After getting together with Su Qing, Shen Yi’s eccentric attributes became more and more pronounced, not only eccentric but also a bit shameless.

Of course, this only applies when she is with him; during work, she remains the calm President Shen.

"Would the two of you like to try our couple’s activity? Just kiss for thirty seconds and you will receive our couple’s small gift!"

In the mall, a young staff member smiled at the two of them and asked. Hearing this, Su Qing’s face showed joy, and just as he was about to speak, Shen Yi cut in ahead of him: "No need, he’s not my boyfriend, he’s my brother-in-law yet to be!"

Staff member: ???

Su Qing: ...

Not until the staff member left did Su Qing turn his head to roll his eyes at her and say, "My dear sister, what are you doing? What the heck is a brother-in-law yet to be? Is that even a thing?"

"Ha~ Well, when you called me sister-in-law just now, what was wrong with saying you’re a brother-in-law yet to be?" Shen Yi retorted, neck stiffened with defiance.

Su Qing was equally helpless: "No, the way you said it, people will think we’re perverts, alright? To be honest with you, Jiang City looks large, but it’s not that big actually, right? Is there no one here you care about?"

Upon hearing this, Shen Yi chuckled lightly, spreading her little hands and laughing: "I don’t care, after all, I’m not from Jiang City; how long have I been here? I don’t have acquaintances here, right, Uncle?"

Su Qing: ...

This girlfriend is too eccentric, and it’s probably not good, especially outside; it’s somewhat embarrassing. At home, it doesn’t matter; the more eccentric, the better, he can handle it.

After a long sigh, he said heavily, "Just tell me, what should I do to make you not behave so eccentrically outside?"

"It’s not impossible, unless you call me ’mom’!"

Su Qing: "No way!"

"Brother-in-law, who has a better figure, me or my sister!" Seeing he was unwilling, Shen Yi suddenly raised her voice, immediately drawing curious looks from others around, even with a hint of gossip in the air.

"Okay, okay, stop shouting, my dear aunt!" Su Qing quickly covered her mouth, cautiously looking around.

Damn, brother-in-law my foot, I’m just over twenty, still look like a student, but the way Shen Yi is saying it, people might actually believe it.

"Then hurry and say it!" Hearing this, Shen Yi instantly got spirited, excitedly saying.

At this, Su Qing took a deep breath, glanced around, and mumbled, "Mom."

"Louder, okay, I couldn’t even hear it. When I called you dad, it was much clearer. How come you, a man, are so reserved!"

"Girl, I advise you not to overdo it, or else..."

"Or else what?"

"I’ll go home and tell my mom!"

Shen Yi: ...

She never expected Su Qing to come out with something like that. What’s up with tattling to the parents? Aren’t you ashamed, not a kid anymore?

Furthermore, if Su Qing’s mom knew about this, how would she explain it next time they met? That would be too awkward.

Future daughter-in-law turns sister? Or does this daughter-in-law want to overthrow the regime?

It’s no wonder that he and Shen Yi could be together, one wants to overthrow old Su’s rule, shouting "Heaven is dead, Yellow Heaven shall stand," and the other wants to rise through the son to seize Zhou Hui’s position. If Zhou Hui knew, she would definitely sigh, ’Birds of a feather flock together!’

"Well...let’s forget it, but just now doesn’t count, you have to say it again at home!" Shen Yi also feared pressuring too much would collapse her hardly managed-to-get brother, so she decided to restrain her eccentric attributes a little.

To this, Su Qing couldn’t help but heave a sigh of relief. Just when he felt lucky to have escaped a disaster, a voice came from behind them.

"Calling mom? Are you two playing so strangely?"

Upon hearing this, both of them were frightened, and quickly turned around, discovering it was the landlady staring at them in shock, with a look in her eyes that only a seasoned person could understand.

"Qing Qing Qing... Sister Qing, why are you here?" Shen Yi’s heart immediately sped up, palms starting to sweat, she stammered.

"Me? Shopping, the latest autumn collection is out, my daughter’s at school today, and I have nothing to do. But when did you develop such a hobby? Just go home and play if you really want to. Doing this outside, Xiao Su, you’re just spoiling her!"

At this moment, Su Qing had already begun to curl his toes. What the hell is going on, not having familiar people around was just embarrassment back then, but now it had become a social death.

"Sister Wen, we’re...just messing around!"

"Yes, yes, just fooling around, it’s not what you think?" Shen Yi quickly explained.

To this, the landlady chuckled softly: "Why explain if you’re just messing around? Besides, I didn’t say anything, did you like this kind of play before? Shouldn’t be, you’ve only been together for a month? Have your tastes changed so quickly?"

The two: ...

Well, now it’s truly as if mud dropped into the pants, even if it’s not crap, it’s still crap. He felt his lifelong reputation was beginning to be ruined by Shen Yi.

"Oh, right, I looked at the stock market this morning and found that it did drop. Fortunately, Xiao Su reacted quickly. Several friends in my circle are howling, some losing hundreds, some thousands. I told them I know a kid who made three billion in over a month from ten million, and they didn’t believe it!" The landlady said, a bit excited.

Earning is earning, but being able to withdraw before the crisis hits is even more fun.

Seeing her shift the topic, the duo couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief, and then Su Qing could only say he was lucky, just happened to guess right.

Soon, the three found a restaurant to eat, and Shen Yi suddenly asked: "Xiao Su, now that you have money, have you thought about how to spend it? Want to enter the real estate with sister? This field is stable and still makes money."

[The reason the landlady said this is because Old Wen learned about your earnings in the stock market and felt you’re a potential talent, wanting to rope you in, one to establish a good relationship and earn money, two to find a partner for his son and daughter.]

Listening to the mental monologue, Su Qing guessed roughly what was going on.

His earnings in the stock market must have been passed back by the landlady, reckoned no secret in that, and telling her family was nothing objectionable.

And Old Wen originally had a good impression of Su Qing, feeling this young man was something else, hence thinking along these lines.

Why didn’t he think about it before? That was because Su Qing hadn’t reached that level, he was just an ordinary person, no money, no power, even though he was appreciated, that was all it would end at appreciation.

After all, Su Qing was just dating Shen Yi, not his daughter. Keeping a good friendship was sufficient, no need for business dealings.

But now, with a huge sum in Su Qing’s hands, he already has a seat at the table, even without Shen Yi’s connection, he qualifies now, plus Wen Nanqing herself had a good relationship with Su Qing, little Wen Yun even calls him Uncle Su, so Old Wen’s view naturally changed.

It’s not about trying to curry favor, after all, the money in Su Qing’s hand might not even be more than someone’s spare cash, just feeling his skills and outlooks are good, wanting more contact.

It’s not really because the Wen family is snobbish, as cooperation depends on whether the other party has value. If he didn’t have even this level of ability, then there was really no necessity.

So you see, sometimes it’s not about being afraid of being used, it’s fearing having no value to be used.

Now that Su Qing has the capacity, the money in his hands counts, naturally, the Wen family treats him with a different attitude.

In one’s twenties, no matter what method used, as long as it isn’t illegal, accumulating three billion is skill, even if winning it from a lottery, that’s still luck. Luck is also a kind of skill.

Truth be told, even if it’s illegal, making so much money itself is a form of ability.

"So? Sister Wen wants me to be a landlord?" Su Qing smiled.

Landlady: "Xiao Yi, your man is taking advantage of me!"

Su Qing: ???

"Sister Wen, how am I taking advantage of you?"

Shen Yi: "Exactly, I don’t understand either?"

"I’m not capable, nor can I manage a company, just have a bit more property under my name, I can say, being a landlady, I can stand that. I am a landlady, yet you now want to be a landlord, what are you trying to do? Isn’t this taking advantage of me? I didn’t see this, Xiao Su, you’ve grasped how to take shortcuts at such a young age, the future is limitless!" The landlady laughed heartily.

Su Qing: ...

Shen Yi: ...
