Rebirth from the Ashes - Chapter 108

Chapter 108: Biological Son

Shen Xi gave her a sidelong glance and did not speak.

Song Wenye continued, “I’ll be honest. Pei Xu isn’t good since his family is too complicated. Someone like Yu Yuanxi is better. He has a simple family background and will definitely be single-mindedly good to you.”

Shen Xi did not expect Song Wenye to speak in a roundabout manner when her personality was so untrustworthy. She smiled and said, “I have someone I like.”

Song Wenye was shaken by Shen Xi’s gorgeous smile. It was the first time she saw Shen Xi smile so sweetly. Her heart thumped as she held Shen Xi. “Tell me tell me tell me. What kind of person is he?”

Shen Xi smiled and shook her head. “I’m not telling.”

Shen Xi refused to say anything no matter how Song Wenye asked, and she lay on the table and sighed, giving up.

Shen Xi looked at Song Wenye who was lying on the table drawing circles, completely depressed, and said unexpectedly, “When I successfully chase after him, I’ll introduce him to you.”

Song Wenye’s eyes suddenly lit up. “Really?!

Shen Xi nodded. “Really.”

Song Wenye was even more curious. Just what kind of man was he for Lil Xixi to have a crush on him? She even had to chase after him!

…

The time when the results of the Olympiad competition was announced was also the same time as the award ceremony of the International Fashion Design Competition.

However, Shen Xi, the gold-medalist who received an invitation letter to the International Fashion Competition a week ago, did not go anywhere and simply stayed at home with her family.

Shen Zhangqing left early in the morning, so there was only Shen Xi and Yun Jinping at home.

When Shen Xi returned from her morning run, she looked up to the attic and saw the woman holding a hose, watering the flowers in a daze.

Today was Madam Yun’s birthday. It was also the day Madam Yun and Old Shen’s biological son, the pitiful elder brother Shen Xi never met, was abducted by traffickers.

Because of this pain, Madam Yun was unable to celebrate her birthday.

Every year on this day, Old Shen would never be at home.

The two people had a very tacit understanding, and neither was willing to talk about accepting this fact.

When Shen Xi was young and did not know any better, she asked Madam Yun before. Madam Yun hugged her and cried, asking her to allow Madam Yun and Old Shen to use this day to miss her older brother.

The year her older brother was lost, she had just turned two. She knew that Madam Yun had not given up hope and was still looking for the whereabouts of her brother.

However, seventeen years had passed and no clue had been found.

At noon, Shen Xi thought about getting something to eat. She could not let Madam Yun go hungry, so she changed her clothes and prepared to go to a nearby restaurant to order takeout of something Madam Yun liked to eat.

Just as she opened the door, she saw Gao Meng’s beautiful face.

She was already beautiful. Since she did not wear makeup, she did not look as enchanting, but she looked more like a virtuous woman.

Behind Gao Meng was Yu Yuanxi with some things in his hands. There was a spring-like smile on his handsome face.

“What are you doing?” Shen Xi was startled by them. How did they end up at her home?

“Chairman Shen, Lil Yu and I came over to celebrate Madam Yun’s birthday.” Gao Meng’s smile was like a flower, and she very naturally walked into the house.

Shen Xi blocked her at the door and grabbed Gao Meng’s arm. She was about to tell her to scram, but after seeing Yu Yuanxi’s innocent and simple face, she held back and said with a grim expression, “Go back. My mom doesn’t celebrate her birthdays.”

At a glance, she knew that it must be Gao Meng who pulled Yu Yuanxi over.

“Don’t say that. We’re already here anyway.” It was the first time Gao Meng saw Lil Chairman Shen so serious. She was frightened by Shen Xi’s cold face, but she pulled her courage together and said, “We’ll just wish Madam Yun a happy birthday.”

Shen Xi pushed her away and was about to say something.

“Xixi, who is it?” Yun Jinping’s voice rang out in the courtyard.
