As soon as Qin Su led Shen Xingcan into the venue, a number of people gathered around, and the person in charge of the event and his wife personally came to greet them.
"Sister Su is here, hahaha."
"We've been waiting for Sister Su! I was just talking to someone about when you'd arrive. You look so beautiful in that cheongsam."
Qin Su said in a friendly tone, "Yes, we've arrived. My youngest son bought me this cheongsam with his scholarship money. Xingcan, this is your Uncle Cai and Aunt Cai."
Shen Xingcan obediently said, "Uncle Cai, Aunt Cai."
Even though Shen Xingcan doesn't often attend these kinds of events, his face is distinctive enough.
So when the Cai couple heard Qin Su's introduction, they were both taken aback.
Qin Su: "My youngest son, Shen Xingcan."
Mrs. Cai quickly realized, "So Xingcan is Sister Su's youngest son! Hahaha, no wonder I thought Xingcan looked like Sister Su before."
Qin Su was clearly pleased with this comment, and she smiled as she replied, "I also think my son and I look remarkably alike."
Does it matter who Shen Lingxun is? Obviously not.
Shen Xingcan remained calm, because this kind of thing had happened far too many times since she was a child.
Without a doubt, Qin Su was the center of attention at the entire banquet.
As a result, it didn't take long for everyone at the banquet to learn that Shen Xingcan was Xie Qingshan and Qin Su's youngest son.
Before the banquet was over, Shen Xingcan helped Qin Su out of the car, Qin Su's claim that Shen Xingcan was her youngest son became the top trending topic on major social media platforms.
Cucumber Tea: Holy crap? Shen Xingcan is Xie Qingshan and Qin Su's youngest son? Then was his previous ugly argument with Best Actor Xie all about fighting for the family fortune?
Heaven have mercy: Shen Xingcan and Xie Linchuan don't even look alike. But Shen Xingcan really is a genuine young master, tsk tsk.
Loves Lemon Candy: Hahaha, in a corner no one cares about, our Best Actor Xie is all alone.
Iced Lemon Tea: I now completely believe what Best Actor Xie said about his mother wanting to switch sons.
Cool Loves Candy: I bet anyone who hasn't seen A Fruit and doesn't know that Ms. Qin Su is Shen Xingcan's godmother would definitely think that Shen Xingcan is Ms. Qin Su's biological son, because the feeling of this mother and son standing together is just too much like mother and son.
Pink Flying Peach: I understand, that feeling is very subtle.
Tiantian fried eggs: Mother and child in love? Haha, is it fun to steal someone else's mother?
Pink Flying Peach Tiantian: Where did this idiot come from? Xie Linchuan has no problem, but you have a problem with it?
King of Red-crowned Cranes: Fans of both sides, stop fighting. Even if they're not together, the fact that they've formally married each other makes it impossible for them to be enemies.
After the banquet began, Shen Xingcan was freed.
He found a table at the most secluded part of the banquet hall, sat down, and then sent a message to Xie Linchuan.
Before long, Xie Linchuan arrived.
Shen Xingcan leaned back in her chair and looked at Xie Linchuan: "There's nothing I like to eat at the banquet. How about we go out and eat again after it's over?"
"Good."
"How boring, Xie Linchuan. I'm definitely not suited for these kinds of occasions."
"Let's go first."
Shen Xingcan: "Never mind, these kinds of banquets don't last very long anyway."
After all, this was just a wrap-up banquet, more like a victory celebration.
The charity auction before the banquet is the real time-consuming part, but most entrepreneurs or celebrities don't attend that part in person.
I wonder if that barbecue restaurant we always ate at is still there.
"She should still be there; I saw the proprietress there when I passed by before."
"Then let's go there to eat later, it's quite close to home... but we have to tell Mom we're not going back to the old house."
"Um."
After a while, Qin Su sent someone to summon Shen Xingcan and Xie Linchuan.
Xie Linchuan was still wearing the same black suit to work, except he was wearing a brooch with him.
Two completely opposite colors, yet they match strangely.
Both were beautiful in their own way, yet equally outstanding and equally striking.
Mrs. Cai exclaimed, "Sister Su, you're so lucky! Both your sons are equally outstanding."
Qin Su accepted the compliment with a smile.
Although the eldest son isn't very likable, he's still quite good-looking, hmm.
After getting in the car, Shen Xingcan told Qin Su that she planned to have a late-night snack with Xie Linchuan and that she wouldn't be going back to the old house.
Qin Su naturally agreed, and after agreeing, she looked at her eldest son with a scrutinizing gaze.
Xie Linchuan said calmly, "It was Shen Xingcan's own idea."
Qin Su glared at her eldest son without changing her expression. "Mom only glanced at you, why are you overthinking things?"
Xie Linchuan: "... Heh."
Shen Xingcan Qin Su to drop him and Xie Linchuan off near their home, and then found the barbecue restaurant they used to frequent when they were in high school, based on his memory of the location.
On a summer night, many people chose to eat outdoors.
Shen Xingcan and Xie Linchuan had just come down from the banquet, both exuding an air of sophistication that seemed completely out of place at a street stall.
So when the two of them walked over, many people subconsciously took a second look.
The two were quickly recognized.
Li Qian looked at the photos of Qin Su and Shen Xingcan on her phone, then looked at Shen Xingcan and Xie Linchuan beside her, and felt a joy that seemed almost unreal.
The skewers wouldn't be ready for a little while, and noticing the girl next to her staring at her and Xie Linchuan, Shen Xingcan asked, "Want to take a picture together?"
Li Qian was initially stunned, but after realizing what was happening, she immediately exclaimed, "Yes, yes, yes!"
"Come on then, whose fan are you?"
Li Qian blurted out before she thought, "They're fans of both of you."
As soon as the words left her mouth, Li Qian wished she could bite her tongue off.
Shen Xingcan: "I'm a fan of the Xie Linchuan and me pairing? Come on, let's take a picture of the three of us."
Li Qian's face flushed with excitement.
Li Qian Li Qian's boyfriend, who was sitting opposite her, took her phone and took a picture of the three of them.
Soon, other people came up to ask for photos and autographs.
Quite tacitly, no one revealed that Shen Xingcan and Xie Linchuan were here.
It wasn't until Shen Xingcan and Xie Linchuan left the barbecue stall that everyone posted the photos and autographs on social media.
The two arrived home at 10 p. m.
Xie Linchuan had nothing with Shen Xingcan, so he decided to go back and get something before coming back.
But Shen Xingcan didn't want to be separated from Xie Linchuan, so in the end Xie Linchuan carried Shen Xingcan back to his home.
Fortunately, they live across the street from each other, so there's no need to worry about running into anyone.
When they arrived at Xie Linchuan's house, Shen Xingcan showed no intention of getting down, so Xie Linchuan had to carry some household items while carrying the large pendant on his back.
Shen Xingcan raised an eyebrow at the clothes in Xie Linchuan's walk-in closet that clearly didn't belong to Xie Linchuan's style. "I thought you threw all my things away."
Shen Xingcan used to spend most of the month staying at Xie Linchuan's place. It's no exaggeration to say that Shen Xingcan knew Xie Linchuan's house better than her own.
She occasionally returned to her own place mostly because Xie Linchuan was too strict and Xie Linchuan had argued with him.
But these arguments usually only last a few hours.
Xie Linchuan helplessly, "Why would I throw your things away?"
Shen Xingcan pouted. "You were so impulsive before, who knows if you'll actually throw things away? Forget it, let's just stay here like before. I have some clothes here anyway, so it'll save me the trouble of going back and forth."
Although Shen Xingcan and Xie Linchuan used to live together, they lived separately. Now, Shen Xingcan clearly doesn't want to be separated from Xie Linchuan.
Shen Xingcan chose a set of pajamas and brazenly took over Xie Linchuan's bathroom, enjoying a comfortable bath.
The sweet scent of the shower gel completely masked the smoky smell of the barbecue stall.
Shen Xingcan sniffed herself, and only after confirming that the smell of the barbecue stall was gone did she put on her bathrobe and go outside.
In the bedroom, Xie Linchuan had already finished washing up.
He wasn't surprised to see Shen Xingcan come out with her hair all wet, and naturally took a towel to help her dry it.
Shen Xingcan squinted, enjoying the service from the person behind her. "My room hasn't been lived in for years, I'll have someone clean it properly tomorrow."
Xie Linchuan paused slightly as he was drying Shen Xingcan's hair. "No need, someone's cleaning up."
Shen Xingcan chuckled, "... Someone's cleaning? We've already had a huge fight and you still want someone to clean my room? Xie Linchuan, you put on a respectable act, but you're probably going crazy thinking about me, aren't you?"
Xie Linchuan's voice was low. "Yeah, I'm going crazy thinking about it."
