Chapter 136 Mid-Autumn Festival Family Banquet
There was no need for Shen Chaoxi to stay any longer. She had just made an appointment with Yu Dong to go and see cars, so she picked up her bag and left.

“Everyone, if the heroine doesn’t have more scenes, then my book won’t be changed much. After all, we signed a contract, and it’s hard for me to break it, right?

I am broke and cannot afford to pay so much money, but for the reputation of this drama and everyone's hard work, I'd better think of a way to improve the actress's acting skills."

Coming down from the conference room upstairs, Shen Chaoxi took the elevator to the first floor, and not surprisingly saw Xu Yun waiting there.

Xu Yun was somewhat aware of the tense situation in the conference room just now.

"Sister Ran, will there be any trouble?"

The inside information that Yao Ran knew came from Xu Yun, and it will be discovered sooner or later, she said after thinking for a moment.

"Xu Yun, you deleted all our chat records, and when people asked you about it, you just said you didn't know. And..."

Xu Yun didn't expect things to be so serious. She regretted saying too much, but she was also glad that she informed Yao Ran in time.

Shen Chaoxi looked back at the eye-catching logo of the Art and Culture Hall.

There are always some unacceptable ways that large corporations use when doing things, especially for a rookie in the workplace like Xu Yun, who is really not suitable to survive here and never knows when he will be taken advantage of.

Shen Chaoxi lowered his voice and reminded, "I am going to set up a studio. The treatment is no worse than what is offered here. You are always welcome to join us!"

~~
October 7th, the last day of the holiday, happens to be the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Early in the morning, Shen Chaoxi and Shang Jianghan went to Shang Jia's old house.

"Will your mother be here?"

After getting out of the car, Shen Chaoxi asked as he looked at the courtyard in front of him with white walls and green tiles as tall as a person.

Shang Jianghan locked the car with the electronic key and looked across the roof at the girl who was wearing a white windbreaker and had long hair falling on her shoulders.

The weather is clear today, and the sunlight has cast a white halo, which is gentle and comfortable.

He stretched out his hand to the other person, quickly grasped the slender white hand, and wrapped it in his palm.

Looking down, the girl's fair face was not made up, but her lips were red, her teeth were white, and her slightly raised eyebrows were full of charm.

"I don't know if she will come or not. It doesn't matter if she comes. She'd better save face in front of so many people."

Shen Chaoxi was quite surprised by Shang Jianghan's evaluation of his mother.

As he finished speaking, a phone call came in from his end.

Shen Chaoxi wanted to leave but he held her hand tightly and wouldn't let go, so she had to turn around and look at the surrounding scenery.

Maple leaves are in full bloom in Shangjing. There are two maple trees standing beside the entrance of the alley of this ancient house. At this time, the leaves are bright red like fire, which is very beautiful.

I have to say that such an environment can make people calm.

Shang Jianghan’s call was not long and he hung up quickly.

He followed Shen Chaoxi's gaze.

"The tree is said to be hundreds of years old, and has only been pruned in recent years. When I was a kid, Shuoxi and I often climbed up there. One time, I even fell asleep on it. Fortunately, my family came to find us, otherwise falling down would have been a big deal."

Shen Chaoxi listened to the gentleness in the man's voice and looked at him sideways.

"You were quite naughty when you were little? Were you not beaten by adults?"

Yao Dimai was a naughty boy when he was little, and his aunt often told him about the times he was beaten.

From an angle that couldn't be seen, the man's eyes sank for a moment.

"My grandfather was very strict with me when I was studying, but he would indulge me when it came to playing. However, Shuoxi was beaten by Uncle Zhong several times."

Shen Chaoxi was slightly stunned, and at the same time, a certain bitterness arose in his heart.

Yes!

She forgot that Shang Jianghan grew up with his grandfather and didn't even have the chance to be scolded by his parents.

The fair white fingers stretched out one by one in the broad palm, slipped into the gaps between his fingers, and soon their ten fingers were intertwined.

"Shang Jianghan, our future child is naughty, can you not hit him?"

The two talked about future children for the first time, and they were inevitably a little stunned, with a hint of anticipation in their eyes.

The door creaked open and a young woman walked out. She was dressed casually but elegantly. Shang Jianghan chuckled and called her "sister-in-law," and then introduced her to Shen Chaoxi.

"I said it's so late, why haven't you arrived yet? You're showing off your affection at the gate!"

Gu Wenmin glanced at the two people's intertwined hands with her almond-shaped eyes and started joking.

Shen Chaoxi nodded to the other party and called out "Teacher Gu."

Gu Wenmin looked surprised and glanced at Shen Chaoxi, feeling that he looked familiar.

At first she thought that this third sister-in-law was too beautiful and she was stunned. As soon as she called her "teacher", she was sure that the other party had met her before.

"Who are you?" Gu Wenmin is currently the director of the Chinese Department of Peking University and a professor at the Institute of Classical Literature.

Shen Chaoxi smiled at the other party.

"Sister-in-law may not remember me, but I attended two of your communication classes when I was studying at Xiang University."

Gu Wenmin has many students, and in recent years he has often visited various universities for academic exchanges, and naturally he has also visited the School of Literature of Hunan University.

"I think you look familiar. I should have noticed you. We can chat slowly when we have time. Third brother, bring your wife in quickly. Grandpa has asked about this several times!"

As they were talking, several people walked into the yard.

Today is Mid-Autumn Festival, and the whole family is reunited.

The business owners Shang Jiangan and his wife, and Shang Jiangchuan and his wife have all arrived.

This was not the first time Shen Chaoxi came to the old house. After being brought into the main courtyard by Shang Jianghan to meet his grandfather, Old Master Shang, he was introduced to his two cousins ​​one by one.

Shang Jiangan currently serves as the dean of the Law School of Peking University and is a well-known figure in the legal community.

My second sister-in-law, Qiao Huihui, is an associate chief physician in pediatrics and is also affiliated with Peking University, but I never had the chance to meet her.

The two sisters-in-law saw Shen Chaoxi for the first time, so they couldn't help but look at him more.

The second sister-in-law was lively and pointed at Shang Jianghan and said with a smile: "Third brother, you are hiding your talent? No wonder other girls don't like you. It turns out that you have such a beautiful girl hidden in private!"

Shen Chaoxi was teased in public, his face turned red, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

The man drank tea in the house, while the woman went out and chatted in the sun on the porch.

The eldest sister-in-law tried to smooth things over, "Okay, do you think the third sister-in-law is as shameless as you?"

As the three were talking, there was a noise from the other side of the archway.

The sound of leather heels hitting the floor tiles gradually came.

Shen Chaoxi turned around and saw Bai Jinyu and Shang Qichao coming side by side.

After entering the moon arch, Bai Jinyu subconsciously stepped back half a body length. Her eyes had already swept down the corridor, and naturally she saw the three sisters-in-law chatting and laughing.

"Second uncle, second aunt!"

"Second uncle, second aunt!"

Gu Wenmin and Qiao Huihui greeted the visitor politely, leaving only Shen Chaoxi.

She hesitated for a moment, leaned forward slightly, and called out "Uncle, Aunt!"

Shang Qichao had already walked up the stairs and looked towards Shen Chaoxi when he heard the name.

Many years ago, he met this girl at the airport. At that time, he only thought that she looked very similar to Zhong Hongguang's newlywed wife. Unexpectedly, she would become his daughter-in-law a few years later.

Having been immersed in the business world for many years, Shang Qichao had long since mastered the art of keeping his emotions hidden, and nodded to the three younger generations.

Shang Qichao could go into the room without saying anything, but Bai Jinyu couldn't take it.

She nodded to the three people with a proper manner, and said a few polite words to Gu Wenmin and Qiao Huihui, such as "long time no see" and "children".

When Shen Chaoxi came over, Bai Jinyu's smile remained unchanged and he asked softly, "Are you here?"

Then, without waiting for Shen Chaoxi's reply, he stepped into the room.
