"This cousin of mine is especially smart. His grades have always been very good and he doesn't lose many marks in the exams. My parents are busy with their business and have no time to care about me. When I was in middle school and high school, I lived at my aunt's house. It was always my brother who tutored me. Without him, I wouldn't have been able to enter Jiangbei University.”
Shao Tianze had already changed back into his usual clothes. He was wearing a pair of white basketball shoes, a pair of dark-colored jeans, and a black short-sleeved t-shirt. There was also a silver metal chain hanging around his neck. Not only was he tall and handsome, but his muscles were also very well-defined. Even the most ordinary style looked exceptionally tall on him. To cover up the smell of sweat, he even put on some cologne.
When they sat down, Lu Fangfei deliberately chose the table next to Shao Tianze. At this moment, she could no longer extricate herself and began to lean toward him. "But I still think you're the best."
Qin Ruoying rolled her eyes in disgust. However, to be fair, Shao Tianze's figure and appearance were indeed impeccable. She was puzzled. They were clearly cousins, but why was there such a big difference in Xu Musheng's appearance?
Shao Tianze took the opportunity to get rid of Lu Fangfei while pouring drinks for everyone. He continued,""But my brother also has a problem. He doesn't like sports. During the summer vacation in the second year of junior high school, my aunt asked me to take him to play basketball with me. At that time, I was training on the school team every day and had no time to care about him. I could only let myself go to the nearby court to play baseball. To put it bluntly, his skills were terrible. The other students were not willing to take him along. When he was bored, he would practice shooting three-pointers from morning till night. After more than a month, his accuracy rate was 60%, and he basically hit the arc every time. In the end, everyone else fought to form a team with him.”
"I couldn't tell that he was so powerful. Don't tell me you're bragging for him.”Qin Ruoying didn't believe it.
"I'm not bragging. In a month, he had thrown at least 10,000 balls. He wasn't like Hanamichi Sakuragi, who had been practicing even when his hand was so swollen that he couldn't lift it. If he made up his mind to do something, he would have great perseverance.”
Mu Yunwan listened attentively. "But he doesn't look like he plays basketball often now.”
"Sigh, he's an otaku deep down. He still likes to read books, surf the internet, and play games. Since I didn't supervise her in university, she probably hasn't touched it much.”
Shao Tianze quickly shut his mouth when he saw Xu Musheng return after ordering. Xu Musheng probably heard something and wanted to find a reason to scold Shao Tianze.
"Why did you get such a chain? He looks like a nouveau riche." he said rudely as he fiddled with Shao Tianze's necklace.
"Please, big brother, can you not be so old-fashioned? The nouveau riche wears gold chains while I wear titanium chains. They say it's good for the body. Your mom brought this back from Japan last time. Don't you have one too?"
When Shao Tianze said this, Xu Musheng remembered that there was indeed such a thing. However, he really didn't like this kind of decoration, so he put it in the drawer and never looked at it again.
Soon, grilled fish, chicken soup, and a few stir-fried dishes were served. Shao Tianze and Xu Musheng were famished, and they ate in big mouthfuls. Qin Ruoying and Mu Yunwan didn't put on airs and ate happily. However, Lu Fangfei's actions were a little pretentious. She kept looking for opportunities to lean on Shao Tianze, as if she was sniffing his cologne. Shao Tianze dodged and dodged, wishing he could swap places with Xu Musheng.
Not long after, more than half of the dishes on the table had been swept away by a few people, but the barbecue had not been delivered yet. Qin Ruoying asked Xu Musheng to urge him again.
Shao Tianze could tell what the girl was thinking. She probably wanted to continue asking about her cousin. "Let me tell you, my cousin looks unsophisticated, but his family is actually very well-off. Her uncle was the leader of China Unicorn and later applied to be an executive in the state-owned communications company in Namibia.”
" Namibia? That's Africa, right?" Qin Ruoying was just surprised and wanted to confirm it.
"Yes, these African countries are relatively backward. Although the companies in the fields of communications and energy are state-owned, they hire foreigners to manage them and pay them quite a high salary.”Shao Tianze did some mental calculations. "That was in the early 1990s. It was more than two million yuan a year. My dad borrowed money from my uncle to start his business. He had always kept 20% of the shares for his uncle. Uncle is now making a lot of money from the import and export trade in Africa. He refuses to take my father's shares no matter what. But my dad said that he must leave it to my brother. My brother is the real rich second generation."
In order to save face for Xu Musheng, Shao Tianze didn't hesitate to reveal his family background. Mu Yunwan's family was also in business, so she had a clearer understanding of the value of shares. If Shao Tianze's father was really the boss of Tiangong Real Estate, then 20% of the shares would be an astronomical figure. However, she was not interested in these things. She wanted to know more about Xu Musheng's past life.
"What about his mother? Is she very strict?”Generally speaking, children who were dull or stayed at home were the result of being too strict at home.
"Oh, you're starting to ask about your future mother-in-law's situation?”Seeing Mu Yunwan's curious look, Qin Ruoying could not help but tease her.
Shao Tianze thought to himself, You clearly want to know too. "That's not true. His aunt was a 100% free-range education. Other than asking him to exercise more, she did not care about anything else. My brother can do whatever he wants, but he loves to study. After he went to university, my aunt spent half of her time in Africa with her uncle and the other half traveling around the world. She only returned to Shanghai when my brother was on vacation.”
"By the way, Auntie also likes to buy him clothes from overseas and bring them back box by box. Of course, I'll get mine too." As he spoke, he tugged at his T-shirt. "My aunt is very fashionable."
So that was the case. Qin Ruoying felt sad for these clothes. "What a pity, he ruined everything.”
"He's a natural-born otaku. He doesn't put in any effort on his personal image. The two sisters-in-law should teach him more. He might even be able to get on the school hunk list if he were to undergo a major transformation.”
"Tsk, who cares about him? Let me be clear, he and I are just ordinary friends.”Qin Ruoying said in a strange tone.
Mu Yunwan blushed and said," Yes, don't spout nonsense. We really just met today."”
At this time, Xu Musheng came in with a big plate of barbecue in one hand and a phone in the other. After hanging up, he complained in a helpless tone,""Captain Zhang called. He asked me to go to the provincial office tomorrow morning at 9 am to participate in the case analysis. He said that there was a big discovery. My graduation thesis hasn't been reviewed yet. Can't you let me off?”
Qin Ruoying's eyes lit up when she heard that there was progress in the case. "I'll go with you. The Public Security Bureau is very strict. You must arrive early. I'll wait for you at the door at 8 o'clock sharp.”
"Is it that early? It only starts at 9 o'clock." Xu Musheng asked curiously.
"You don't know, but the procedures to enter the house are very troublesome.”Qin Ruoying restrained her urge to laugh and said seriously. "It has to be eight o'clock, not a single minute later."
Seeing Qin Ruoying like this, Mu Yunwan could already guess what she was up to. "You can go with Ruoying. Don't worry about the thesis. I'll format it and send it to your email today.”However, after saying this, she felt inexplicably disappointed.
Shao Tianze saw the expressions on the three of them and a mocking smile appeared on his face. Hehe, you offended two school belles at once. Brother, you're really awesome!
