Sheng Ning’an’s face showed little expression. After a glance, he handed the phone back to Tian Yu and said, "That’s my Young Uncle."
"Your real uncle?" Tian Yu asked in surprise.
"He doesn’t look much older than you in the photo," Tian Yu exclaimed, staring at the picture on the phone.
And boy, he was really good-looking!
True to being from the same family, the two of them together were a sight for sore eyes.
"Yeah, that’s because my grandma had him quite late."
It was good to know it was a misunderstanding.
Tian Yu breathed a sigh of relief, her attention now focused on his Young Uncle, "Does everyone in your family have such high attractiveness? Is your Young Uncle married? Does he have a girlfriend? What do you think about me being your aunt?"
Sheng Ning’an gave her a look, "He’s not married, doesn’t have a girlfriend either. I think you could give it a try."
Tian Yu was just asking casually, thinking in her mind that someone that handsome couldn’t possibly be single.
But, unexpectedly, he was.
"My grandma has been worrying about his marriage lately! If you really could handle him, it would solve a big concern for my grandma. But my Young Uncle only has eyes for his research; you might end up casting loving glances at a blind man!" Sheng Ning’an felt it was necessary to warn her. After all, girls were too easily deceived by his Young Uncle’s handsome face.
If she really fell for him and got no response, wouldn’t that be a waste of emotions?
So handsome and yet no girlfriend, he’s either gay or unreachable. Either way, he definitely wouldn’t be easy to pursue.
Tian Yu just said it in passing, knowing well enough that such a handsome guy wouldn’t possibly be interested in her.
Then she looked at Sheng Ning’an and said, "The comments under the post are pretty nasty, do you want to post something to clarify things?"
She couldn’t be bothered with such frivolous posts.
Moreover, the more you clarify, the more attention it draws. It might even expose her Young Uncle’s identity. Since the Young Uncle preferred peace and didn’t like too much attention, Sheng Ning’an didn’t want to cause him any trouble.
It was better to let the hype die down naturally.
But even though she ignored it, others still paid attention and the enthusiasm for gossip remained.
Soon, someone revealed Yeli’s identity.
The person replying claimed to be a student from Jing University, stating that both men in the photo had graduated from Jing University’s Youth Class.
Not only did they attend the same university course, but they had also worked in the same research institute after graduating.
The netizens were shocked!
Was this about hooking up with her boyfriend’s colleague and classmate?
This sister is fierce!
Even the students from Jing University rushed to their university’s forum upon hearing the rumors, and soon, the post was flooded with IPs from Jing University.
Someone even posted their university graduation photo.
It confirmed that the two were indeed classmates.
Immediately, the comments turned to malicious speculations and remarks.
Until someone questioned, "Sheng Yeli, Sheng Ning’an, has no one noticed they share the same last name? Could they be relatives?"
"Could they be siblings?"
"They do look somewhat alike!"
"Truly, the handsome are uniformly beautiful, while the ugly each have their own peculiarities!"
After being reminded, people regained their senses, and the comments gradually returned to normal.
Seizing the moment, Tian Yu posted a reply below: "I’ve already asked for everyone, they’re uncle and nephew, really related. Hope everyone stops the malicious speculation, thanks!"
