Though Shu Yunyi appeared young, her mature demeanor made her impossible to ignore.
Liu Huijuan unconsciously found herself addressing the woman as "little sister," her attitude turning more formal.
After asking, she noticed the other party was equally polite, hands clasping a small purse as she replied:
"Excuse me, is this the Shen Family?"
Though the question seemed unnecessary, Shu Yunyi had to ask—she was here for a visit and to lodge a complaint, not to start a confrontation.
Liu Huijuan set down her knife, rinsed her hands under the faucet, and stood up.
"Yes, this is the Old Shen Family."
"Who are you looking for?"
Something felt off to Liu Huijuan. If this woman was here for Old Shen, she wouldn’t believe it for a second. But if she was here for Shen Yi—that was entirely possible.
Just as the thought crossed her mind, Shu Yunyi confirmed it:
"Auntie, hello."
"I’m here to see Shen Yi."
The moment the term "Auntie" left her lips, Liu Huijuan didn’t know how to react.
A woman like this—stunning, refined—was a rare sight even once a year. Yet today, two had appeared, both connected to her son.
Frowning, she couldn’t help but ask:
"And you are…?"
"What business do you have with our Xiao Yi?"
Shu Yunyi smiled gracefully, giving a slight bow as she introduced herself:
"My surname is Shu, Shu Yunyi."
"I’m Xiao Yi’s… Xiao Yi’s girlfriend."
The strangeness in Liu Huijuan’s heart finally erupted. Her eyes widened in disbelief.
"What did you say?"
Shu Yunyi nearly laughed but held back, thinking Shen Yi’s mother’s reaction was even more exaggerated than in her past life.
Composing herself, she nodded firmly.
"You heard right, Auntie. I really am Xiao Yi’s girlfriend."
Liu Huijuan waved a hand, lowering her head.
"Wait, wait—my mind’s a mess right now…"
Fu Nanzhi had just left, and now here was another woman, just as breathtaking, claiming to be Shen Yi’s girlfriend.
Liu Huijuan was starting to question reality. She knew her son’s flaws all too well—how could he possibly attract such beauties, one after another?
After a long pause, she finally looked Shu Yunyi up and down, suspicion in her voice.
"Little sister, how did you and our Xiao Yi meet?"
Shu Yunyi chuckled softly, understanding Shen Yi’s mother’s shock. She corrected her gently:
"Auntie, you can call me Xiao Shu or Yunyi."
Then, with a nostalgic expression, she began:
"Xiao Yi and I first met in university—"
Before she could continue, loud voices erupted outside.
"Third Sister!"
"Third Sister! You home?"
Liu Huijuan hurried to the door and saw her second sister, Liu Huimin, calling out as she approached, followed by a whole crowd of people.
She retorted:
"Where else would I be? What’s with this mob?"
Liu Huimin declared without hesitation:
"We’re here for dinner!"
"And to meet my nephew’s fiancée!"
Behind her were Shen Yi’s second uncle, younger uncle, younger aunt, married eldest cousin holding a baby, and even Shen Yi’s grandmother, supported by someone—seven or eight people in total.
Liu Huijuan was stunned.
"Since when did I say I was hosting dinner?"
"Besides, with this interrogation squad of yours, you’ll scare the poor girl on her first visit!"
Liu Huimin, ever the organizer, cut her off with a wave.
"Don’t back out now—you promised during mahjong!"
"And it’s not like we didn’t warn you. I @’ed you in the family group chat before lunch, saying we’d come for dinner. Didn’t you see it?"
Liu Huijuan had been too busy to check her phone and had no idea they were coming.
Her eldest cousin, the youngest among them, tugged her sleeve to correct:
"That’s called ‘tagging.’"
"Same difference!" Liu Huimin brushed it off.
"Anyway, we’re here now—you can’t kick us out. Aren’t you going to let us in? Mom’s still standing here!"
With that, she sidestepped Liu Huijuan and marched inside.
"Hey—they left ages ago! Slow down!"
Liu Huijuan could only step aside, grumbling, before noticing her mother had come too. She sighed.
"Mom, you too? What’s with the fuss?"
Liu’s Mother, slightly hunched and walking slowly, lifted her head.
"I came to see my grandson."
Liu Huijuan explained helplessly:
"Xiao Yi isn’t even home—he left after lunch."
Just then, Liu Huimin’s voice rang out from inside:
"Don’t say you didn’t prepare—you’ve already got a fish cleaned! Third Sister, you’re such a liar!"
"Oh! So this is Xiao Yi’s girlfriend? She’s gorgeous!"
Liu Huijuan suddenly remembered Shu Yunyi was still inside and rushed back, shouting:
"She—she’s not—!"
By the time she reached the courtyard, the group had already surrounded Shu Yunyi, leaving her protests unheard.
Liu Huimin was holding Shu Yunyi’s hand, marveling.
"Sweetheart, what’s your name?"
"Hello, Second Aunt, everyone. I’m Shu Yunyi."
Standing at the center of the crowd, Shu Yunyi carried herself with effortless grace, unfazed by the attention.
"Goodness, not only do you look like a fairy, but even your name sounds poetic!"
The relatives showered her with praise—she truly resembled a celebrity, her every movement elegant and mesmerizing.
Liu Huimin couldn’t help but feel a pang of envy. What kind of luck had her nephew stumbled into to land such a girlfriend?
Meanwhile, her own son, pushing thirty, was still as dull as a rock—she was at her wit’s end.
Noting Shu Yunyi’s formal attire and seemingly mature demeanor, she probed:
"Xiao Shu, what do you do for work?"
Shu Yunyi smiled warmly.
"I work at a university—I’m a teacher."
She didn’t mention being a professor, avoiding questions about her age that might lead to awkwardness.
"Wow!"
Even with her modest reply, the relatives burst into murmurs of admiration.
A stable teaching job was already respectable, but a university teacher? To them, that was practically elite—the best of the best.
"No wonder she carries herself so well. She looks so serious when she’s quiet—I was a little intimidated," admitted the eldest cousin, the youngest among them, bouncing her baby in her arms.
Second Uncle chimed in:
"Xiao Yi’s got skills! Brother and Sister Shen are truly blessed."
The younger uncle, seeing the grandmother had entered, quickly fetched a stool for her, calling out:
"Where’s Xiao Yi? Quit hiding inside!"
"Come out and greet everyone, hurry!"
The others echoed:
"Right, don’t just stand there—find some seats!"
From the doorway, Liu Huijuan watched, mouth agape.
"What… what kind of mess is this?"
ave】 Shen Qingling was a man with peerless looks, a cunning mind, and the ability to play both the aloof noble and the innocent sweetheart—a master of seduction who could outplay any player. But after an untimely death, he found himself bound to a system and transmigrated into the tragic "true young master" of a melodramatic novel. In the original story, his childhood sweetheart treated him as a backup plan, his fiancée swore to break off their engagement for the sake of the "fake young master," and his own sister saw him as the family's disgrace. He was nothing more than a rat everyone wanted to stomp on. System 077: "Your mission is to change the original fate and conquer the goddesses." Shen Qingling: "Thanks for the invite. If seduction had tiers, I’d be max level." His childhood sweetheart knelt, begging for forgiveness: "Qingling, I was wrong. Please give me another chance." His ex-fiancée refused to marry anyone else: "Shen Qingling, I was blind before. In this life, I’ll marry no one but you." A yandere CEO went mad for love: "Shen Qingling, you can only like me. I’ll stop at nothing to make you mine!" His green-tea sister clung to him daily: "Brother, look at me, won’t you? I’m more obedient than them—I love you the most~" At first, they scorned and trampled on him. Later, they burned themselves like moths to a flame, all for his sake. His looks were his weapon, his sweet words the bait—heroines obsessed over him, villains turned to madness for him. Shen Qingling became a true male siren, igniting battlefield after battlefield of women fighting for his affection. Years later, when System 077—now one of the elites—was asked how to become as outstanding as it, it lazily exhaled a smoke ring and replied: "Just know how to cheer ‘666’ at the right time."
Cheng's father told him he was getting remarried—to a wealthy woman. Cao Cheng realized his time had finally come: he was about to become a second-generation rich kid. Sure, it might be a watered-down version, but hey, at least he'd have status now, right? The wealthy woman also had four daughters!! Which meant, starting today, Cao Cheng gained four stunning older sisters?? But that wasn't even the whole story... "My name is Cao Cheng—'Cheng' as in 'honest, smooth-talking gentleman'!"
end. Thus one must continue to cultivate, and become a saint or great emperor, in order to prolong one's life. Chen Xia, however, completely reversed this.

Thus between the myriad worlds, the legend of an unparalleled senior appeared. "A gentleman takes revenge; it is never too late even after ten thousand years." "When you were at your peak I yielded, now in your old age I shall trample on you." - Chen Xia
