A text message arrived:
Waiting for the shuttle bus.
I exited the building on the second floor.
[Shall we meet at a place?]
No need, this Starbucks is fine.
After replying, Su Jinbei put her phone in her pocket.
Privately, Qiao Yu commented that her almond-shaped eyes were no less beautiful than her sister's phoenix eyes, and she aimlessly surveyed the tourists coming and going.
It was pouring rain outside.
Su Jinbei ordered two coffees at Starbucks and waited for her aunt.
There was no panic or tension at all, as if they were about to be questioned.
She was never the kind of obedient girl that outsiders thought she was.
Despite his dignified and elegant demeanor.
But her family knows what kind of person she is.
When it comes to being a troublemaker, her best friend, who only knows how to throw tantrums and act cute with her younger brother, is miles behind her.
If she had been born in ancient times, her family would surely have lamented that she wasn't a man.
The child who grew up in the same courtyard as her when she was little.
Everyone knows that Su Jinbei is a shrew.
in this era.
Women can do many things too, and are in no way inferior to men.
Her family was very satisfied with her; her grandfather said she was "shrewd and resourceful, and readily accepted good advice."
Her father said she was "upright and peaceful, unmoved by anything."
But she's just too opinionated.
Large families like the Su family prefer moderate and docile offspring.
If you follow the path laid out by your parents and walk steadily along it, you will naturally reach the pinnacle of life.
Sharp and unruly qualities.
Suitable for pioneers or trailblazers who forge ahead and overcome obstacles.
Didn't have to wait long.
She saw her aunt coming over, wearing sunglasses.
A smartly dressed assistant followed closely behind her, dragging a small suitcase.
Su Jinbei immediately curled her lips.
Do you think you're a big star, wearing sunglasses? You're not Qiao Jingjing.
My aunt glanced around the Starbucks area and walked straight past.
"Didn't have to wait long, right?" 92, 109, 24, 30
The woman takes off her sunglasses, revealing herself to be a mature woman around forty years old.
She was dressed in an expensive women's casual outfit, and her eyebrows and eyes bore a resemblance to Su Jinbei's.
But not as refined as hers.
His eyes were particularly sharp, and he looked at people with an air of authority.
"Half an hour."
Su Jinbei said, "I'll give Starbucks to my second aunt."
Where are you staying now?
My aunt took a sip of coffee, speaking casually.
"Let's stay at a hotel," Su Jinbei said.
"You're full of lies," the aunt scolded.
"I really do stay in hotels. After all, I spent two years in Shanghai, and there are still plenty of people who admire me."
367 Su Jinbei smiled, giving off a calm vibe that said, "I'm just talking nonsense to fool you."
“Your dad is very angry and wants you to go back home immediately. Listen to your aunt and don’t hold a grudge against your family,” your aunt advised.
"Sulking? I just came out to have some fun and get some fresh air. I'll go back when I'm done."
Su Jinbei blinked.
Su Jinbei didn't follow her train of thought at all.
I played games with Qiao Yu.
Knowing that being led astray is fatal.
The aunt smiled bitterly, swallowing back all the words she wanted to say.
This niece has been difficult to deal with since she was little.
"Your grandfather was also very angry..."
Su Jinbei laughed, "Auntie, don't try to fool me, okay? Why is he angry?"
“When I was a child, I tore up my parents’ marriage certificate, and he didn’t let my dad beat me.”
“You’re all grown up now and have your own opinions, but your aunt still needs to offer some advice.”
"Yes, arranged marriages are not common now, but such a big event as marriage cannot be entirely based on your own temperament and preferences."
"The opinions of elders must be respected."
Su Jinbei rolled her eyes: "It's not like I'm going to marry a poor scholar. It's you who are sticking to the old system of arranged marriages."
"Auntie, please don't go off-topic."
When it comes to marriage, the feelings of the elders must definitely be taken into account.
Otherwise, where would the term "meeting the parents" come from?
But she does not accept arranged marriages.
Actually, it wasn't exactly an arranged marriage; she and the "groom" were quite familiar with each other.
We grew up wearing open-crotch pants, how could we not be familiar with each other?
Su Jinbei slapped him across the face.
The other person knelt down and called her "sister," someone she had been bullied since childhood.
"Off-topic?"
The aunt was taken aback.
"Internet slang refers to deviating from the topic and subtly changing the meaning."
Su Jinbei said.
This is something she learned from Qiao Yu.
Her aunt looked at her and said, "Jinbei, you've changed."
I feel like my niece is becoming a homebody.
“What’s wrong with Mingcheng? He’s been sensible and hardworking since he was a child. The elders all give him a thumbs up when they talk about him.”
"We grew up together since we were little."
The aunt continued to patiently persuade her.
Su Jinbei waved his hand: "It's because we're too familiar with each other that I don't feel anything. He stole money from his family when he was six, smashed his grandfather's antiques and framed his younger brother when he was ten, and went around looking for experienced drivers to take him to see his 'big sword'..."
“I have a lot of his dark history, and he has a lot of mine.”
"Aunt, it's really impossible for us. I've always thought of him as my brother."
She prefers a dating style that involves getting to know someone slowly and getting to know them gradually.
In Qiao Yu's words: Love grows over time!
But I really don't like childhood sweethearts.
For example, some men prefer glamorous married women or innocent schoolgirls.
There are also those who are into black stockings, mature women, uniforms, (ahef) queens, lolis, and so on.
What kind of fetish does she have?
Brother complex?
"Bah!"
Su Jinbei gently slapped herself twice.
Don't let Qiao Jingjing infect you.
I've always thought of him as an older brother...
The aunt thought to herself, "If Mingcheng heard this, he'd probably cry his eyes out."
"You should go home first. It's certainly free outside, but it's never as warm as home."
"Food outside isn't hygienic either; it can't compare to homemade food..."
Before her aunt could finish speaking, Su Jinbei interrupted her, saying:
"Don't say the words 'special supply,' keep it harmonious."
“Besides, I’m eating very well, even better than at home. I’m not satisfied if I don’t eat two big bowls of rice now,” Su Jinbei said.
My best friend is a foodie; if you're quick, you'll miss out.
The younger sister-in-law stared at her for a long time, puzzled, and said:
