After her identity was stolen, she lived in the short-lived villain's phone.

Chapter 425 The Pig Stealing the Cabbage

When that familiar voice rang in her ears, Chi Yu's first reaction was that she thought she had misheard.

She subconsciously looked up and met Shen Yanzhi's gaze directly.

Shen Yanzhi stood tall and handsome beside her, his gaze fixed intently on Chi Yu. When he saw the undisguised shock and surprise on Chi Yu's face, Shen Yanzhi's usually indifferent expression was now tinged with a faint smile.

Upon seeing that it really was Shen Yanzhi, Chi Yu's eyes widened: "When did you get back?"

According to Shen Yanzhi's previous plan, he should still be abroad at this time.

"Right now, I just got here from the airport." Shen Yanzhi glanced at the banquet hall and saw that many guests were already seated, so he said, "Am I late?"

"No, no." Chi Yu shook her head, grabbed Shen Yanzhi's sleeve, and subconsciously moved closer to him: "The meal hasn't started yet, you've come at the right time, I'll take you there to eat later."

She still remembered Shen Yanzhi's habit of not wanting to sit at the same table with strangers after the last court hearing.

Moreover, Shen Yanzhi's sudden appearance here clearly indicates that he specially rushed back from abroad to attend her banquet.

Chi Yu naturally had to keep an eye on him.

Upon hearing this, Shen Yanzhi's lips curled slightly: "Okay."

Despite their cool and aloof appearances, their response was surprisingly gentle and obedient.

Then, Shen Yanzhi respectfully greeted Su Zhengye: "Uncle, good afternoon."

Su Zhengye didn't expect Shen Yanzhi to appear here, and judging from his conversation with Chi Yu just now, it seemed that he had come here on purpose.

Su Zhengye looked at Shen Yanzhi, his feelings were very complicated.

As an elder, he originally thought highly of Shen Yanzhi.

It wasn't until last night that I learned that this seemingly honest, hardworking, and sensible young man was actually the pig who stole my little cabbage.

Su Zhengye paused for a moment, adjusted his facial expression, and nodded with a smile: "Yanzhi, you're here too."

The elders who had just been chatting with Chi Yu were stunned by this scene. Yet, they also sensed something unusual in the familiar tone of the three, and a thought arose in their minds.

Someone asked, "Yu Yu, what's this...?"

Chi Yu held Shen Yanzhi's hand and said with a gentle smile, "Third Aunt, this is my boyfriend, Shen Yanzhi."

Upon hearing Chi Yu's words, Shen Yanzhi's face immediately lit up with a warm smile. His already straight back became even more upright, and he looked at the old woman who was talking to Chi Yu with innocent eyes, politely and reservedly greeting her, "Hello, Auntie."

Third Aunt: "..." This cheap boy seems a bit too familiar.

However, after blinking and pushing up her reading glasses, even the well-informed Third Aunt couldn't help but be amazed when she saw Shen Yanzhi clearly.

What a handsome young man!

Not only Auntie, but the other elders also couldn't help but feel a little fortunate after looking at Shen Yan.

Thank goodness, thank goodness they were mindful of the occasion and didn't say anything unpleasant.

By the time they reach that age, they've long since developed their own methods for judging people.

The young man in front of me is outstanding in appearance and has an extraordinary demeanor; he is clearly not a child raised by an ordinary family.

Honestly, even if they were to introduce someone to Chi Yu, they would find it difficult to find someone with such outstanding looks and temperament.

An elder immediately praised, "Yu Yu, you have excellent taste! The two of you standing together are a perfect match!"

No wonder Su Zhengye and Liang Mingshu didn't stop Chi Yu from getting a boyfriend so quickly. If their daughter brought home someone like that, they would have wholeheartedly agreed!

Amidst the praise, Chi Yu lowered her head, feigning shyness.

Seeing this, everyone knew that the young man was shy, so they joked with Su Zhengye, asking when he would receive an invitation from the Su family, and whether good things were coming soon.

　This chapter needs some revisions, and I'll write the next one tomorrow morning.
