Chapter 216 Invitation
After getting a clear look at the other person, Shen Ruochu turned to Jian Yunsang and the others and said, "I'm going out for a bit, I'll be right back."
Shen Lei also saw the two people outside. He clearly recognized them and introduced them to Jian Yunsang, "Those are Chu Chu's classmates. They grew up together in the same compound."
Are you from the same compound?
Jian Yunsang understood. Hexin Garden was essentially the family compound of the provincial party committee, and most of the residents worked for the provincial party committee. Since these two boys had grown up here, it meant that their parents and their sister-in-law were 'colleagues'.
Sure enough, Shen Lei continued, "The one on the left is the son of the Minister of Propaganda, and the one on the right has an uncle in the Ministry of Political and Legal Affairs."
As soon as Shen Ruochu entered the courtyard, the two boys waved to her, smiles spreading across their faces.
Yuan Yuan couldn't bear to look. Why were these two smiling so obsequiously? Especially the one on the left, who looked worthless, like a complete idiot.
Yuan Yuan sensed something was wrong, her eyes darted around, and she turned and ran back into the house. Then she took Chao Chao out and hid behind the flower bushes to eavesdrop.
Chao Chao, “…”
She asked softly, "Brother, why don't we just go outside and listen?"
"You don't understand. We're here just in case. If those two do anything to my cousin Chuchu, we can spot them immediately and go out to scare them. You have no idea how distorted those two men's expressions were just now. Anyway, you won't go wrong if you listen to me."
Shen Ruochu, who had her back to them but had overheard the entire conversation, twitched at the corner of her mouth, utterly speechless.
Forget it, I can't be bothered with it.
She looked up at the two boys in front of her. "What brings you here?"
"Chuchu, we heard you were back, so we came to apologize." The boy on the left looked embarrassed.
Shen Ruochu frowned. "Apologize? What are you apologizing for?"
“It’s not that we all signed up for the army and you were the only one who wasn’t selected, so we thought you might be upset…”
Shen Ruochu's temples throbbed with anger. "Fang Kaichen, are you looking for death?" She'd just started to feel a little better, and they had to provoke her like this?
Fang Kaichen was taken aback. His classmate Lin Qi quickly said, "Chuchu, you misunderstood. Kaichen meant to ask if you wanted to go out and have some fun, just to relax. We're planning to go skiing tomorrow, want to come along?"
Shen Ruochu sneered, "Going skiing tomorrow? Have you forgotten that we have class tomorrow?" She sneered sarcastically, "What, you passed the physical exam for enlisting in the army, so it doesn't matter whether you go to school or not? You're really something."
The two of them were speechless. "..." It had been so long since they'd heard her speak like that. She was clearly very angry.
Then, as if remembering something, Fang Kaichen said with some confusion, "You didn't know there's no class tomorrow?"
"what?"
Fang Kaichen explained, "I don't know which idiot reported us for having extra classes during winter break, and it even went all the way to the education bureau. The school didn't want to make a big deal out of it, so they suspended classes for the next few days until this matter was resolved. Didn't you receive a text message?"
Shen Ruochu was taken aback and immediately took out her phone, only to realize that she had switched it to airplane mode after boarding the plane. She hadn't been in a good mood the rest of the journey and hadn't touched her phone, so she had forgotten to switch it back.
She quickly opened the message and indeed saw a text message from the teacher stating that classes were suspended and that they would be notified separately when they would resume.
Shen Ruochu was speechless, and Fang Kaichen quickly asked, "How about it? Want to go skiing?"
Before Shen Ruochu could answer, Yuanyuan had already pulled Chaochao out, saying, "Let's go, let's go too!"
Not only was she nodding vigorously, but she also kept winking at Chaochao, "Little sister wants to go too, right?" Chaochao had never even seen snow before, let alone skied.
She didn't understand and asked Shen Ruochu, "What is skiing? What should I do if I don't know how?"
Shen Ruochu was completely at a loss when she met the girl's blank and bewildered gaze. Thinking of the suffering the girl had endured over the past two years, she realized she had barely had any time to rest, let alone play.
She knew how to ski two years ago, but now she doesn't remember it at all.
Without saying a word, Shen Ruochu picked up the little girl and pinched her cheek. "It's okay if you don't know how. We'll learn now. Once you've learned, you can go to your family's ski resort when you get back to Jiangcheng."
Their own ski resort? Do they own a ski resort?
Shen Ruochu said to Fang Kaichen and the other person, "Okay, let's go."
"Okay, I'll make the arrangements." Fang Kaichen's eyes lit up, and he said excitedly.
Shen Ruochu called out to him, "Hey, wait a minute."
Although she had just agreed, she still needed to ask her aunt and Zheyan for their opinions, since both of the younger ones wanted to go.
When Jian Yunsang heard that they were going to the ski resort, she looked down at Chaochao. The little girl had snuggled up to her as soon as she came in, her eyes filled with anticipation.
What else could Jian Yunsang do? She naturally nodded.
Chaochao actually has very little fun. For various reasons, she hasn't even been to an amusement park since she came back.
He Zheyan had no objections. Although he loved studying, he was also quite good at sports.
Shen Ruochu then returned to the doorway and said to Fang Kaichen and the other person, "There are four adults and two children on our side. How about you?"
Her father had to go to work, so she and Shen Leyang took care of her aunt and her family. After all, this was the place where they grew up, their territory, and they were very familiar with it.
Fang Kaichen was taken aback. "We haven't made any decisions yet. We were just planning to ask for your opinion first. If you go, we'll make the preparations. If you have two children, I can find a nanny to help take care of them, arrange two seven-seater cars, and find two drivers?"
Shen Ruochu thought about it and agreed.
Lin Qi asked, "By the way, how are the rooms arranged here?" The ski resort they booked was located in a resort area 80 or 90 kilometers away from Xingcheng city. It would be too tiring to go back and forth in one day, so they needed to book a hotel in advance.
“My aunt and Chaochao share a room, Zheyan and Yuanyuan share a room, and Leyang and I each have a room. As for you, you can arrange yourselves.”
"Okay, we get it."
While the group was discussing things in the courtyard, Jian Yunsang and the others had actually been watching from the window the whole time.
She couldn't help but whisper to Shen Leyang, "Do those two boys like Chu Chu?"
Shen Leyang glanced at Shen Lei, who was speechless. "Why are you looking at me? Chu Chu is eighteen years old. I don't object to her having a boyfriend."
Shen Leyang nodded affirmatively to Jian Yunsang, "Yes, they both have that feeling. But Chu Chu hasn't figured it out yet; for her, she'd rather be their boss."
"As a result, all three of them signed up, but only the eldest failed the physical examination. The two she wanted to take as her underlings were both outstanding and passed the physical examination and will soon be joining the army. How could she be in a good mood?"
Chaochao tilted her head. "Are the two older brothers outside also going to join the army?"
