Chapter 324: Chapter 324: Being Good-looking Makes You Popular

"You guys, this is... I don’t care, I want in too!" Da Li was influenced by the atmosphere and, opening his robust arms, suddenly embraced both people, shouting loudly, "Mom—"

Because Da Li’s voice was so loud, a flock of birds perched in the tree by the door scattered in all directions, causing Ye Shu’s brows to unconsciously furrow.

Moments later, Aunt Mei pulled out a tissue to help Ye Shu wipe her chest, saying, "It’s my fault for making your clothes wet from crying. By the way, where’s your pendant?"

"Pendant?" Ye Shu’s beautiful eyes rotated quickly a few times, "What pendant?"

A flicker of embarrassment crossed Aunt Mei’s eyes as she said, "Oh, I mean, at your age, it is the most beautiful time of life. Why not wear a pendant or something around your neck to accessorize? Have you never worn one since you were young?"

Ye Shu replied, "I guess so; I don’t remember ever wearing one."

Hearing this, Aunt Mei seemed a bit anxious, "What about earrings? You don’t wear those either?"

"I do have a pair of earrings, but I don’t wear them..." Ye Shu suddenly smiled, "Mom, why do you seem so interested in what I wear?"

Aunt Mei also smiled, "Oh, I just think, my daughter, you are so beautiful, no matter what you wear, it will look better on you than on anyone else. By the way, you’re grown up now, have you met Mr. Ruyi?"

"Um..." Ye Shu nodded shyly, "We’re very good."

"Oh, that’s good, that’s good." Aunt Mei’s face immediately beamed with joy, "Later, you should introduce him to me, what does he do? Is he a doctor? A lawyer? Or a civil servant?"

"Mom, none of those, he’s just a small business owner," Ye Shu modestly said.

"Oh, it’s fine, it’s fine, a small business owner it is. Even if he were a butcher, as long as he is truly good to you, that’s what’s most important..." Aunt Mei spoke, then her eyes narrowed as if she was reminiscing about some past era.

"Butcher?" Ye Shu burst into laughter at the thought, visualizing Mr. Sheng in nothing but an apron, shirtless at the butcher stand, vigorously chopping meat for customers!

But if Mr. Sheng really were to sell pork, wouldn’t the meat stall be overwhelmed by swooning women?

As lunchtime approached, Ye Shu and Da Li had to head toward the cafeteria, or else they would be left hungry in the afternoon after missing the mealtime.

Along the way, Da Li couldn’t help but mumble to himself, "They say appearances can be deceiving, but a woman being beautiful does indeed make her more popular. Just look at Aunt Mei; so many people used to try to get close to her, and she hardly cared to mingle. But as soon as you showed up, she changed completely. Being good-looking is very important."

Ye Shu laughed, "I’ve never thought about it that way; I just feel like there’s a kindred spirit between Aunt Mei and me. Since I’ve always lacked maternal love, finding a mom in her is rather wonderful."

However, Da Li vigorously shook his head, "No, something feels off!"

Ye Shu smiled teasingly, "Stop shaking, or you’ll break your neck."

After lunch, before Ye Shu could even rest, she received a summons from the instructor saying someone wanted to meet her.

With her spirits high, she thickened her skin and guessed to herself; having only parted for a day, how could her Mr. Sheng not bear the loneliness?
