Wang Ming's Girlfriend (Continued)
On the other side
Wang Jing and Wang Ming are practicing together.
Endless flames roared out, and the moment they collided, it seemed as if even space itself was about to shatter.
After their brief sparring session, Wang Jing couldn't help but exclaim, "Your skills have improved; it seems you didn't waste your time at school."
Wang Ming, however, was preoccupied with his own thoughts.
After thinking for a moment, he finally spoke up, "Dad, I have an idea about the clan competition in Empress."
"Oh? Tell me about it."
"I want to be an elder."
Upon hearing his son's words, Wang Jing paused.
He asked incredulously, "What did you say you wanted to be?"
"Elder, is there a problem? This is the most advantageous profession I have come up with after comprehensive analysis."
"..."
After a moment of silence, Wang Jing, adhering to his willingness to communicate with his son, said amiably, "Come on, son, tell your father why you have such thoughts."
"..."
After listening to Wang Ming's explanation, Wang Jing fell silent.
At first glance, this does seem to be the case.
Moreover, being an elder is indeed a sinecure, especially being an honorary elder. You just hold the title, do nothing, and enjoy many conveniences.
"So, Dad, what do you think of my idea?" Wang Ming looked at Wang Jing expectantly.
"It's a safe bet, but is that all you aspire to?"
"Dad, you can't blame me for this. My original ambition was just to pass the civil service exam, live a carefree life, and live off my family's savings. Who told you to suddenly give me such a powerful background?" Wang Ming said with a wry smile.
Being the son of an official is troublesome enough; he really can't handle being a young master.
Once you're in a position where so many eyes are watching, you'll be restricted in every way.
In the end, I guess they won't be living for themselves anymore.
"What are you two talking about?" At this moment, Wang Ming's mother Song Siyu, came over.
"I was discussing the future with my dad, but he wasn't satisfied with my plans and was about to interfere."
Upon seeing his mother arrive, Wang Ming immediately hid behind Song Siyu and began to complain.
"What are you pointing fingers at? How old are you? You're already thinking about becoming an elder? Can't you have a little bit of youthful impulsiveness?" Wang Jing said helplessly.
"I'm afraid if I act impulsively, you'll break my legs," Wang Ming muttered to himself.
Wang Jing: "..."
Was he referring to that impulse?
"Alright, you two stop arguing. Xiaoming has his own ideas, just let him do what he wants."
"Son."
"Mmm." Wang Ming nodded obediently.
Immediately afterwards, Song Siyu smiled mysteriously and said, "Mom brought a girl home for you today. See if you can get to know her."
"???"
Before Wang Ming could react, he was dragged away.
"A girl?"
Wang Jing suddenly became interested and immediately followed.
"Mom, why are you suddenly introducing me to potential partners?"
"I've heard you complain so many times about not having a girlfriend, so this time Mom has found one for you."
"Wait a minute, I'm still young, I don't need to go on blind dates."
"This isn't a blind date; it's more like making friends."
"..."
And so, Wang Ming was half-pushed into the living room.
When he arrived in the living room, he was stunned.
There are two people in the living room.
Song Lin, the president of Jinling University, and Shen Xunwei...
"Brother-in-law," Song Lin said with a light laugh upon seeing Wang Jing.
"Little sister's here." Wang Jing walked over with a smile.
"???"
Looking at Wang Jing's beaming face, three big question marks appeared above Wang Ming's head.
What's going on?
"Wang Ming, come here quickly so your aunt can take a look." Song Lin beckoned to Wang Ming.
"Ah, uh, um, Auntie?" Wang Ming asked, stunned.
"This is the first time your aunt has seen you in over a decade. I never expected you to be so outstanding," Song Lin said with a light laugh as she looked Wang Ming up and down.
"Um, Principal Song, are you sure you haven't mistaken me for someone else? My mother is an orphan." Wang Ming looked completely bewildered.
"That's a lie. This is your aunt, Song Lin, your mother's sister. And your mother is the eldest daughter of the Song Family in Jinling," Wang Jing said.
"..."
"Holy crap?!"
Wang Ming was shocked.
Dog Ling Yuan, you fucking guessed right, my mom's connections aren't small either!
"We have guests here, so speak politely," Wang Jing said, glaring at them.
"It's alright. It's normal to be surprised. After all, it's been more than ten years since we last met. They should have forgotten about me by now," Song Lin said.
"It's all my fault..." Wang Jing said.
"It's alright, and Wang Ming is no worse than any other scion of a powerful family now." Song Lin said with a smile, patting Wang Ming's head.
After saying that, he waved to Shen Xunwei, who was standing to the side. "Come on, Xunwei, come over and say hello to your uncle and aunt."
"Hello, Uncle and Aunt."
Shen Xunwei said softly.
"Qianwei is so big now. Your uncle used to carry you all the time."
"Actually, I've always wanted a well-behaved daughter. How about it, would you like to become my daughter-in-law?"
"Ah?"
It was obvious that Shen Xunwei was taken aback by Wang Jing's enthusiasm.
"Cough!"
Song Siyu coughed lightly.
Wang Jing immediately realized what was happening and gave an awkward smile, "Sorry, I got too excited."
"Ah Lin, Wang Jing, let's go outside and talk," Song Siyu said.
Inside the room
Wang Ming and Shen Xunwei looked at each other.
After a moment of silence.
"Don't stand, sit down," Wang Ming said, pointing to a chair.
"Thanks."
Shen Xunwei smiled politely and then sat down.
Although his expression remained calm, he was incredibly nervous inside.
I wonder if the other person still remembers me...
"Um, I always felt like we'd met somewhere before, but I thought it was just my imagination. Now it seems we're cousins."
"No, no, I'm just Song Lin's adopted daughter. We're not related by blood," Shen Xunwei, waving her hand.
Then, looking at Wang Ming with some anticipation, she asked, "Brother Wang Ming, do you still remember me?"
Wang Ming: "???"
Upon hearing the way the other person addressed him, Wang Ming felt completely smitten.
No way, is his main storyline finally about to begin?!
While Wang Ming was still excited, he remembered a more serious problem.
He only vaguely remembered it, but had completely forgotten what had happened between him and the other person!
"Really? Brother Wang Ming doesn't remember anymore? No wonder, so much time has passed..."
Shen Xunwei's expression was somewhat gloomy.
"I'm sorry, my memory isn't very good. Plus, I've had a lot of head injuries from training, so I forget some things."
Seeing the other person's expression, Wang Ming also felt somewhat ashamed.
"But..."
"But?"
"I'm a sentimental person. If you're willing to stay by my side, I might remember you."
"..."
After Wang Ming finished speaking, the living room fell silent.
"W-what's wrong?"
"Brother Wang Ming's skin has gotten thicker," Shen Xunwei chuckled.
"It's all thanks to a certain person," Wang Ming said with a helpless smile.
If you're not afraid of showing off your chuunibyou (middle school syndrome) in public, what's a little thick skin?
Judging from the other person's expression, it's clear that they have some feelings for him.
Moreover, both in terms of personality and appearance, Shen Xunwei is exactly the type he likes.
If that's the case, why not grant Mom's wish?
"Achoo!"
Ling Yuan, who was lying dead, suddenly sneezed.
"Brother Ling Yuan, are you sick?"
"No, it must be Wang Ming talking badly about me behind my back," Ling Yuan said, pinching his nose.
"Let me introduce you to my girlfriend."
That evening, Wang Ming brought Shen Xunwei to the villa and proudly introduced her to everyone.
"Hello everyone, I am Shen Xunwei, a second-year student at Jinling University."
Shen Xunwei bowed slightly to everyone to show her respect.
Looking at Shen Xunwei in front of them, everyone exchanged bewildered glances.
Finally, Little Lingxi ran up to Shen Xunwei, looking completely bewildered. "Sister, how did you come to like Wang Ming?"
"Lord Xi, Lord Xi..." Shen Xunwei quickly spoke up.
