"If you're too embarrassed to say it, then help me pick out a few sets!" Chen Hanlu's face showed no emotion.
Chen Nan felt awkward. "You're still young, a mature style isn't suitable. I think a sweet Japanese style and a girlish style would be good."
The more he spoke, the more he felt guilty, and he rubbed his nose. "Of course, what you like is most important!"
"Understood!"
Chen Hanlu understood Chen Nan's preferences and entered the lingerie store, selecting ten sets of underwear in different styles.
"Pay for it, and I'll wear them for you when we get back," Chen Hanlu said with a sly smile.
"No, no, no..."
Chen Nan panicked a little.
But he was also curious about how this style of underwear would look on her.
Although he wanted to buy some for He Shanshan, he knew she wouldn't be able to carry off this style of clothing.
"Do you want to drink bubble tea?"
Leaving the shopping mall, Chen Nan looked at the girl in the back seat.
She saw the girl staring intently at a bubble tea shop not far away.
Chen Hanlu sat sideways in the back, casually swinging her legs. "If you buy it for me, I'll drink it. If you don't want to buy it, then don't ask, just go home!"
Chen Nan felt hurt.
But he still went to the bubble tea shop, waited in line for a few minutes, and bought a small cup of bubble tea.
"Here, red bean with ice, full sugar."
Chen Nan inserted the straw into the bubble tea cup and handed it to Chen Hanlu, who was playing on her phone. Then, he slowly drove the electric bike towards home.
Chen Hanlu casually asked, "Aren't you drinking?"
Chen Nan replied, "I'm not thirsty. You drink it. If this thing sits for too long, it will affect the taste!"
Chen Hanlu snorted. "Don't think I don't know what you're thinking."
Chen Nan pretended to be calm. "What do you mean? I'm not thinking anything!"
"You know I like red bean bubble tea, but why did you only buy a small cup? Why don't you like being alone with me, yet you're slowly riding the electric bike now?" Chen Hanlu said disdainfully. "You want me to finish drinking it quickly, preferably before we get home."
"So that Chen Xiazhi won't find out you bought me bubble tea!"
"And you won't have to worry about her being jealous!"
"Although you could have bought two cups."
"But you know, if you bought one for Chen Xiazhi in front of me, I would definitely be unhappy."
"Because you didn't even think of me when you refined the Qi Awakening Pills for her."
Chen Nan was so embarrassed he wanted to dig a hole with his toes. He hadn't expected Chen Hanlu to see through all his thoughts.
Just then.
Chen Nan suddenly felt a gaze fixed on him from the intersection ahead.
It was an old man with a youthful complexion and white hair.
He was wearing a white martial arts uniform, with one hand behind his back, exuding an aura of power.
This old man's strength was not weak.
He had reached the Grandmaster level of cultivation.
His eyes looking at him were filled with hostility.
"He's probably here to cause trouble?"
Chen Nan wasn't afraid of trouble, but he didn't want to scare Chen Hanlu. This girl, though aloof, couldn't stand seeing people fight.
Thinking of this, he accelerated, speeding past the old man.
But at that moment.
He heard Wu Mian's voice, as faint as a mosquito's buzz, in his ear: "Considering you have someone on your electric bike, I'll spare your life for now. But remember, this isn't over between us. One day, I will teach you a lesson!"
"Even if you can dodge the beginning, you can't dodge the end!"
Wu Mian watched Chen Nan leave, a flicker of disdain in his eyes. He turned to his disciple, "Have someone continue to monitor his every move!"
"Yes!"
------
"Bubble tea, are you finished?"
When they reached the entrance of the steel plant's family compound, Chen Nan looked at Chen Hanlu.
"Look how scared you are, not like a man at all!"
"It's just me buying you a cup of bubble tea. What's the big deal even if the second one finds out?"
Chen Hanlu said with disdain and casually threw the bubble tea cup into the trash can.
Although he was scorned by his younger sister, Chen Nan didn't get angry.
But as he withdrew his gaze, his peripheral vision was fixed on Chen Hanlu's phone screen.
The picture was a selfie with a bubble tea cup pressed against her face.
The girl's hair in the photo was messy from the wind, adding a touch of disheveled beauty.
Especially that extremely rare smile, like a winter plum blossom blooming in the cold.
It made one's heart flutter.
Chen Nan hadn't seen such a smile in a long time, and he was very happy.
After all, what brother wouldn't want his sister to be happy and joyful?
However.
Seeing the words on the photo.
He suddenly felt a chill run down his spine.
A shiver of fear!
The words were simple: Thank you, brother, for the red bean bubble tea. Red beans warm the body and the heart!
Chen Nan panicked. This wasn't just posting on Moments to record her feelings!
This was clearly a declaration of war, a provocation to Chen Xiazhi!
It was easy to imagine that Chen Xiazhi would definitely be angry if she saw this.
Even more infuriating, she had set this post to be visible only to Chen Xiazhi.
"Third sister, I was wrong. I swear, no matter what I do in the future, you'll have a share. Can you please delete this post?" Chen Nan was almost crying.
"No!"
Chen Hanlu arrogantly raised her head.
"......"
As expected.
After returning home.
Chen Nan clearly felt the atmosphere at home had changed.
Chen Xiazhi, who was usually the life of the party, sat on the sofa looking unhappy, ignoring her parents who were packing things.
"Second sister, what's wrong? Why are you suddenly so down? Are you feeling unwell?" Chen Nan asked with feigned concern, pretending to know nothing.
"Don't talk to me, I don't want to talk to you!" Chen Xiazhi stomped her bare feet and angrily returned to her bedroom.
Chen Nan felt depressed. Why was he not happy at all, even though they were about to move into a mansion?
"Mom, Dad, you guys rest for a while, I'll help you pack."
On the other hand, Chen Hanlu was beaming with joy, which made Chen Shan and his wife very confused.
They even thought the sisters had swapped souls.
Although they didn't know exactly what had happened.
But one thing was obvious.
Even with all his methods, Chen Nan could only make one daughter happy...
Well.
After all, one of them had to be unhappy...
In Jizhou, there was a saying about moving house: one had to move after midnight.
At eleven o'clock in the evening, Sun Sihai drove a minivan to the steel plant's family compound. Behind him was Lu Jian, who had come in a small truck to help with the move.
After everything was loaded onto the vehicles, it was past midnight. Then, the Chen family of five drove in the minivan to lead the way, bringing Lu Jian to Building 95 of the Banshan Villa.
Looking at the brightly lit, massive villa, the whole family was very happy.
They had never imagined they would live in such a high-end villa in their lifetime.
After lighting the firecrackers, the family began to busy themselves, unloading everything from the vehicles.
They were completely unaware that a pair of eyes were watching them from afar.
Then, those eyes disappeared, and Wu Mian's disciple called Wu Mian: "Master, the Chen Nan you asked me to monitor is the person who bought your villa. They have now moved into Building 95 of Banshan Villa."
Wu Mian was somewhat surprised and sighed, "It seems I don't need to make a move; he's about to face a lesson! If nothing unexpected happens, he'll be forced to move out by dawn!"
The disciple asked, "Should I continue to monitor him?"
Wu Mian replied, "Continue to monitor him. After all, I promised Young Master Dong that I would teach Chen Nan a lesson. I can't go back on my word, can I?"
