Jing Yao could tell that Zhu Ling was deliberately trying to change the topic. She followed her words and said, “With his personality, will he really be able to work hard on his graduation design?”
Zhu Sui smiled. “He’s really serious this time. He often consults his cla.s.smates and even plans to put down his pride to beg his brother.”
Before the others could figure out who Ji Wei’s brother was, Jing Yao quickly reacted.
Ever since he was young, Cheng Wan treated Wen Chen and Ji Wei equally. She even doted on Ji Wei more because his parents had pa.s.sed away since he was young.
It was the same for Wen De.
Hence, many people who did not know the inside story thought that the two of them were biological brothers.
Jing Yao thought so for a long time when she first returned to the Jing Family.
“It seems that he’s really determined this time,” Jing Yao said with a smile.
Zhu Sui didn’t think too much about it just now. After saying that, he realized what he had said.
In their circle, Wen Chen was a taboo topic, because they were afraid that Jing Yao would feel uncomfortable.
However, it seemed that they were completely mistaken. Jing Yao probably didn’t react when she heard this name, but Liang Xun reacted greatly.
At the mention of this person, there was no smile on his face.
Many people present reacted quickly and slowly. Only Shen Zhao was still in a state.
She looked at Zhu Sui with sparkling eyes and asked him with a strange smile, “Brother Zhu, do you chat with Ji Wei often?”
Zhu Sui felt that the way Shen Zhao looked at him was a little strange, but he did not think too much about it. He just smiled and said, “Not often. He talks a lot and has a lot to complain about every day. He probably doesn’t have anyone to talk to. I’ll become his trash can.”
Shen Zhao nodded with a smile. “Yes, I’m the same age as him and have many hobbies. 1 don’t see him complaining to me. From the looks of it, Brother Zhu is quite special to him…”
“Ahem…” Shen Yu suddenly cleared his throat and interrupted Shen Zhao.
Shen Zhao was interrupted and instinctively looked in the direction of the voice.
Shen Yu secretly gave her a warning look.
Shen Zhao pursed her lips and looked away silently. She did not speak again.
Zhu Ling was at the side. She quietly observed the silent exchange between Shen Yu and his sister before looking at Zhu Sui.
Zhu Sui probably did not take Shen Zhao’s words to heart. He was already looking down at his cell phone.
It was unknown what he saw, but the corners of his lips curled up as he read.
Zhu Ling had never seen such a smile before, but she had seen it often on her brother’s face recently.
Zhu Ling frowned and sized up the people around her. Finally, her gaze landed on Liang Xun.
Liang Xun was roasting chicken wings for Jing Yao. He flipped them occasionally and looked at Jing Yao most of the time. There was already a pile of things in front of Jing Yao that Liang Xun had roasted.
Jing Yao praised Liang Xun as she ate. After praising him, she handed it to Liang Xun’s mouth for him to try.
The two of them interacted warmly and naturally, as if they lived every day like this.
Most importantly, when Liang Xun looked at Jing Yao, there was a doting smile in his eyes, and the smile on his lips was exactly the same as Zhu Sui’s now.
Zhu Ling was shocked and suddenly looked at Zhu Sui.
Zhu Sui was no longer looking at his cell phone. Instead, he was chatting with Gu Yu with a smile on his face. However, this smile felt very different from before.
Zhu Ling couldn’t find any words to describe how it was different.
Anyway, she just felt that something was wrong.
Zhu Ling lowered her head and thought for a long time. Before she could figure it out, Shen Yu had already come to her side with a plate of roasted food.
“Lingling, try what I roasted.” Shen Yu handed the food he roasted to Zhu Ling as if he was presenting a treasure.
Zhu Ling looked at the plate and felt her head buzz.
The vegetables were alright. Although they didn’t look familiar, they weren’t that scary. However, the meat was indescribable.
One side was charred black, and the other side was still red. It was obvious that it was not cooked.
Zhu Ling exhaled slightly and said tactfully, “1 don’t think I’m hungry.”
“Pfft…” Shen Zhao, who was drinking a drink not far away, burst out laughing when she heard Zhu Ling’s words.
Jing Yao didn’t notice this at first. When she heard Shen Zhao’s movements, she looked over. When she saw the food on Shen Yu’s plate, she couldn’t help but want to laugh.
Everyone’s attention was attracted by Shen Zhao’s laughter.
Shen Yu coughed lightly and said, “It’s mainly because the fire is not easy to control. It’s fluctuating between raging and weak.”
Liang Xun glanced at him indifferently and did not stop brushing the oil. He even said, “We use smokeless charcoal specially for barbecue. There’s no such thing as what you said.”
“…” Shen Yu.
“…” The rest..
