Chapter 251: Chapter 251: How Are You Here? Chapter 251: Chapter 251: How Are You Here? This year, the two families finally gathered together again.
Shen Zhaozhao still went to find Sheng Chuyi on the evening of New Year’s Eve, and Sheng Chuyi would come to seek her out on the first day of the New Year.
The two of them, just as before, paid New Year’s visits to the elders of both families and competed with a bunch of kids to set off fireworks.
The great-grandmother of the Sheng family still cheerfully called her granddaughter-in-law, preparing a big red envelope for her.
However, compared to two years ago, the old lady’s spirit had clearly declined quite a bit, but her sparse, white hair was still neatly groomed. She only talked for a while before letting them go off to play.
After the New Year, Shen Zhaozhao and the Shen family went back to Jing City.
With three days left before school started, Qin Suxin wanted to keep them at that home, but Sheng Chuyi refused, saying they needed to go back and clean their place.
The two of them spent a whole day cleaning the villa when they got back.
The next day, when they thought they could have a good rest, they were woken up early in the morning by the doorbell.
Shen Zhaozhao didn’t want to deal with it, but the doorbell kept ringing persistently.
Annoyed by the noise, Shen Zhaozhao directly called Sheng Chuyi, hoping the other party would answer the door.
But as soon as the call connected, Sheng Chuyi told her he was outside and asked her to go check.
Shen Zhaozhao went to the door wearing pajamas with a down jacket over them.
As soon as she opened the door, she heard a familiar booming voice say, “Happy New Year!” But in the next second, the eyes widened in shock, and with a ghost-seeing expression, “How come you’re here?”
And most crucially, the girl was still in pajamas, wearing slippers and with messy hair, clearly just having crawled out of bed.
Ever since the last time Ye Wei’an walked in on them, Shen Zhaozhao had been prepared for people to find out that she and Sheng Chuyi were living together.
However, she hadn’t expected the other party to keep it to themselves.
What she didn’t expect was Zhou Huaiyu and Gu Chengzhou suddenly showing up.
Shen Zhaozhao was startled for a moment, then let them in.
In the living room, Shen Zhaozhao, Zhou Huai’an and Gu Chengzhou stared at each other in a standoff.
Soon, they heard the sound of the door opening.
Sheng Chuyi, seeing two extra people in the living room, didn’t seem too surprised, but called out to Shen Zhaozhao, “Come eat breakfast.”
“Oh!” Relieved at the thought of not having to continue with their questioning, Shen Zhaozhao quickly rushed over to Sheng Chuyi.
However, Zhou Huaiyu and Gu Chengzhou had no intention of giving up their inquiry; they only turned their attention to Sheng Chuyi.
“What exactly is going on with you two?”
Sheng Chuyi, “It’s exactly what you see.”
“So you two are living together?”
“We’re just living together,” Shen Zhaozhao interjected hastily with her mouth full of a big bun, correcting the assumption.
Zhou Huaiyu, “Aren’t we talking about the same thing?”
Shen Zhaozhao, “Of course not, cohabitation is generally used between couples, I’m just staying here.”
“How ‘just’ is it?” Zhou Huaiyu scoffed.
Shen Zhaozhao, “Purer than 24K gold.”
“Focus on your breakfast!” Sheng Chuyi reminded her.
“Oh!” Shen Zhaozhao ducked her head back down again.
Zhou Huaiyu, staring at Sheng Chuyi, “Did you even consider us brothers at all, keeping such a big thing from us. If we hadn’t come across it today, were you planning to keep hiding it?”
Sheng Chuyi, “Do I need to announce it to the world?”
That wasn’t necessary!
“But we’re not strangers, you guys should’ve at least given us a hint, right?”
