Quick Wear: The Heirless Boss Wants to Get Close to Her Every Day

Chapter 784 The Capitalist's Daughter vs. the Tough Guy Military Officer (16)

This was the first time Shen Shuyi had met Yan Zheng's relatives. Just as Yan Zheng had said, her uncle looked very serious on the surface, but he was actually a very warm elder. At the dinner table, he would tell her to eat more and ask Yan Zheng to take good care of her.

My aunt is a talkative person. I chatted with her about some things that happened in the family compound and told her to come to me if she encountered any trouble in the future.

While Shen Shuyi was talking to her elders, Yan Zheng used serving chopsticks to add her favorite dishes.

She naturally noticed these small details as well, and felt even more that Yan Zheng was a man worth getting to know better.

Yan Zheng possesses the ruggedness and toughness of a soldier, yet he can also take meticulous care of those around him in daily life. This contradictory nature is particularly charming.

After the meal, the uncle's family knew that they were tired from their long journey, so they told them to go to the family compound to rest.

Aunt Shen took out a red envelope and stuffed it into Shen Shuyi's hand, patting the back of her hand. "Shuyi, this is a small token of our appreciation. You and Azheng should go back and rest. The house is all cleaned up."

"Here, is the key?"

Shen Shuyi tried to refuse the red envelope, but Yan Zheng took the keys and held her hand, saying, "Take it."

"Thank you so much, Uncle and Aunt," the two said together.

Yan Zheng added, "Thank you for taking care of the house."

"Oh, it's nothing. Your uncle originally wanted to help you apply for an apartment building, fully furnished, but you said you wanted a quieter bungalow. So we hurriedly took people to clean and tidy it up, and added some furniture. If you think there's anything missing, we'll add it." Auntie said with a smile.

Shen Shuyi told Yan Zheng that she would treat them to a meal another day after she had rested, and then left hand in hand.

Back in the car, Yan Zheng was driving this time, while Shen Shuyi sat in the passenger seat, holding a red envelope in both hands.

Yan Zheng kept his hands on the steering wheel, driving steadily while glancing at her out of the corner of his eye.

"Shuyi, are you nervous?"

"Yes, a little. My uncle and his family are all very kind and helpful people." Shen Shuyi was just a little unaccustomed to it and not very good at getting along with her elders.

After all, in her original world, she was an orphan who had no parents, no brothers or sisters, and had never experienced any family affection. Even if Yan Zheng's relatives were kind, she still felt a little uncomfortable.

However, she felt good about it and had a desire to interact with them more.

Yan Zheng reached out and patted the back of her hand. "Don't be nervous, I'm here for you."

Shen Shuyi hummed in agreement, a smile spreading across her face. "Brother Yan, I'm starting to look forward to life in the family compound!"

Yan Zheng gave her a heads-up, "It's not as convenient as the Shanghai Stock Exchange."

"At least I'll feel more at ease. I never want to face those hypocritical family members again," Shen Shuyi muttered to System 66.

"66, what's the current situation with the Shen family?"

[We were "invited" to the countryside! We were devastated! The whole family of four went to the countryside, crying and wailing in frustration.]
Shen Shuyi also saw the close-up shot that System 66 had chosen for her to see. In that luxurious mansion, the four members of the Shen family seemed to still be in the nightmare of losing all their belongings.

Looking at the empty house, it seemed their entire family had been emptied out!
That's the wealth that the Shen family has accumulated over generations!
nothing left.

"Mom and Dad, what should we do now?" Shen Yuwei was a beast of burden in her past life. Even if she knew that investing in real estate after the 1980s could make her rich, she had nothing left to invest with!
Could it be that they're going to work as dishwashers in Hong Kong?!
She doesn't want to live in an urban village and be surrounded by cockroaches!

I don't want to live in a small, damp house where there's no sun and you can see the whole thing from one end to the other every day!

"What else can we do? The ship is about to leave, let's leave Shanghai first!" Shen Hui had no choice but to leave now, since he had already sold his house!

But the money from selling the house was stolen by some damned thief!
A sudden commotion arose outside. Shi Lan grabbed Shen Hui's arm. "What's going on? Didn't the buyer say they'd come to take possession of the house tomorrow?" "Mom and Dad, I'm going out to check." Shen Zhiwen looked dejected. He regretted selling his newspaper job! Otherwise, he could have stayed here; he probably wouldn't have been able to make a good living in Hong Kong anyway!

What followed was everything Shen Shuyi saw on the system screen. Even the neighbors who came over to join in the fun knew about the Shen family's affairs and discussed it while eating melon seeds.

"Hey! I really didn't expect the Shen family to sign up for the rural service program!"

"I heard they went to the Northwest! The whole family of four went to the countryside, except for the eldest daughter who was cut off from her family."

"Oh, this is a good thing! The Shen family's thinking is really progressive!"

"But it's strange, I thought I should have packed my things and taken the train to the countryside as soon as I signed up, but then the staff from the educated youth office had to come and urge me."

"Could it be that they've changed their minds?"

As it turned out, they did indeed hear shouts coming from inside the house, the voices strained and unnatural.

"I didn't register!"

"I don't have any either, comrades, are you sure you're not mistaken?"

The staff placed the volunteer form, written in black and white, in front of them. "Comrade Shen, this is a very serious matter; it cannot be taken lightly."

"Otherwise, we suspect you of interfering with and sabotaging the organization's work."

A huge accusation was slapped on their heads, and the Shen family trembled. All the staff had arrived, and some damned person had actually signed the documents on their behalf!

Now they're in a bind; they have no choice but to leave this village, whether they want to or not!
Shen Yuwei was forcibly shoved into the train. As she looked at the increasingly desolate scenery, her eyes were filled with hatred.

She didn't understand how things had come to this terrible state, and now there was no escaping it; her Hong Kong dream was completely shattered.

Clutching the necklace she had finally acquired tightly in her hand, she gritted her teeth and muttered, "Endure! I must survive. Once the college entrance exam is reinstated, I can leave these mountains!"

"At that time, I will go to Hong Kong to activate the necklace and invest in real estate, and then I can become a very wealthy person!"

Meanwhile, at the military family compound on Hainan Island.

As the car entered the residential compound, they could see a large group of people gathered around them from afar. They must have come to see their new neighbors. They had just received news that the house was applied for by Commander Yan, who had gotten married. This was truly a rare occurrence.

Shen Shuyi slept for a while in the car and was a little drowsy. Yan Zheng was worried that she would have trouble getting out of the car, so he turned around and helped her out.

She looked up and saw a detached bungalow in front of her; even before entering, she could roughly see the layout of the house.

There is a courtyard with a well and a tree. To the left is probably the kitchen, and inside there should be a living room and two rooms.

As soon as the car stopped, people came over to help move the things.

"Commander Yan is back."

"Is this your partner? She's so beautiful!"

Yan Zheng answered each question, thanking everyone for helping him arrange a banquet to treat everyone to a meal another day.

Most of the neighbors were sensible; they left their things and went on their way. However, a few of them chatted amongst themselves as they walked away.
