Chasing His Ex: The Tycoon's Hidden Twins

Chapter 199: Chapter 158: Jiang Silu Sends a Photo to Her Brother, and His Mindset Changes

At the dinner that followed, Jiang Silu and her friends experienced many firsts.

It was their first time eating a meal at sea.

Their first time seeing a sunset over the ocean.

It wasn’t until later that night that Lu Fan took them back to school.

However, since they didn’t have class the next day, Liu Shiting got out of the car midway. The moment she got home, Mrs. Liu asked curiously, "Shiting, why are you back so late?"

"We went out to sea this afternoon," Liu Shiting replied.

Mrs. Liu was a little surprised. "Why did you go out to sea? Don’t you have your landscaping internship?"

"It was Silu’s dad. He invited us out on his yacht," Liu Shiting explained.

Hearing this, Mrs. Liu grew curious. "Her dad is that generous? He even rented a yacht to take you all out to have fun."

Liu Shiting shook her head. "No, I think he bought the yacht just a few days ago, specifically to take Silu out."

"What?!" Mrs. Liu’s eyes widened. She knew Jiang Silu’s father was rich, but she never imagined he was *this* rich.

She quickly asked, "Quick, show me a picture of the yacht."

So Liu Shiting showed the picture of the yacht to Mrs. Liu.

Gazing at the size of the yacht in the picture, Mrs. Liu was stunned. "This boat must have cost several million, at the very least. You don’t think her dad just said he bought it to show off in front of his daughter, do you?"

Liu Shiting didn’t think so and offered her own analysis. "Uncle Lu isn’t that kind of person. I feel like he’s very sincere. You can tell he genuinely cares about Silu."

Mrs. Liu nodded in agreement. "If that’s really the case, then their family’s resources are truly impressive. Oh, dear, why hasn’t your brother managed to win Silu over yet?"

As she spoke, Mrs. Liu took out her phone, intending to text Liu Peng and urge him on.

But Liu Shiting stopped her. "Mom, please stop trying to set my brother up with Silu."

"Why?" Mrs. Liu asked, confused.

Liu Shiting was exasperated. "My roommate doesn’t like my brother at all. Do you really think he’s such a great catch?"

"What’s wrong with your brother? He’s a great kid! He can play basketball, he’s cheerful, and he’s handsome," Mrs. Liu retorted.

Liu Shiting sighed. "You’re really seeing him through a mother’s filter. Let me put it this way for you: your son isn’t handsome, he isn’t cheerful, and he’s a lazy glutton. Forget my roommate, if I weren’t related to him by blood, I wouldn’t give him a second look either."

Hearing this, Mrs. Liu grew anxious. "What kind of way is that to talk? How can you say that about your own brother? I’m just trying to build a connection between our family and your roommate’s." freeweɓnovel.cøm

"Don’t worry, Mom," Liu Shiting replied. "She has a brother. He’s pretty good-looking, and I’m kind of interested in him. If things work out, maybe something could develop between us."

"Really? In that case, Shiting, you need to go for it!" Mrs. Liu instantly forgot all about her son. "Logically, the son is more likely to inherit the family business. If you marry into the Lu Family, you might even have a hand in managing the company someday."

"But nothing’s set in stone yet, Mom. Don’t get too excited," Liu Shiting explained. "Silu’s brother hasn’t even officially reunited with his dad yet."

"That’s not a problem! It’s precisely because he’s in his ’common soldier’ phase right now that if you become his wife, you’ll naturally become the Marshal’s Wife later on, right?" Mrs. Liu encouraged her. "If you’re short on funds for dating, just tell me. I’ll support you unconditionally. Worst case, we’ll just cut off your brother’s living expenses."

"Okay, I like the sound of that," Liu Shiting said, snickering.

She then returned to her room and began editing the videos and photos she had taken that day.

Once she was finished, Liu Shiting posted a new video to her channel.

In the video, she and Jiang Silu appeared most frequently, as she was primarily trying to strengthen her bond with her.

Besides, she knew Jiang Silu would also be seeing this video, and just maybe, when Jiang Sifan was checking up on his little sister, he might notice her too.

Meanwhile, Jiang Sifan had arrived right on time at He Lingyi’s house for their tutoring session.

He Lingyi was already waiting for him in her bedroom. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm

The moment she saw Jiang Sifan enter, she immediately closed the door and whispered, "Ahem~ I have some good news for a certain handsome teacher~ My math score on this month’s exam improved again."

Jiang Sifan was a little surprised. "How much did it improve?"

"Five points! It’s not a lot, but I think it’s pretty good. What do you think, Teacher Jiang?!" He Lingyi said, holding the test paper up for him to see.

Jiang Sifan looked at the paper and couldn’t help but nod. "Not bad, not bad at all. Your score actually broke into the seventies. Keep pushing, and it’ll be great when you can break into the eighties."

"Hee hee~" He Lingyi beamed. "That’s all thanks to Teacher Jiang’s excellent methods. I think my mom found the absolute perfect teacher."

"I’m just here to help. You’re the one doing the real work," Jiang Sifan said with a chuckle. "You have to remember, you’re the one who’s ultimately in charge of your own learning."

"I don’t care. I never would have improved this much without you. You know, I only scored a 23 at the start of the semester. In my math teacher’s words, you could get more than 23 points just by stepping on the answer sheet."

He Lingyi then stepped forward and linked her arm with Jiang Sifan’s. "Teacher Jiang, since I’ve improved so much, and since I don’t have to go back to school tomorrow afternoon... can you take me to the amusement park tomorrow?"

Jiang Sifan was puzzled. "Why don’t you have to return to school on Sunday afternoon?"

"We’re having the school sports meet on Monday, so we get a full weekend off. We just have to be back Monday morning~" He Lingyi explained.

But Jiang Sifan was still hesitant. She was a high school senior, after all. Time was tight. ’Would Aunt Zhang be okay with her spending the better part of a day out having fun?’
