Chapter 457: Utterly Selfish

Huang Xiangyu looked at herself in the mirror. The more she looked at her reflection, the more she thought that she was beautiful. She muttered to herself, “I think her two brothers look pretty good. They look like those big stars on TV.”
Zhao Lan rolled her eyes and suddenly laughed out loud. She laughed so hard that she couldn’t even straighten her back.
“Mom, what’s wrong?”
“You reminded me of something. I didn’t manage to become in-laws with their family last time. But don’t we still have a chance?”
“Mom, you mean…” Huang Xiangyu was tempted too. If Sheng Yang could rise to the upper class, why couldn’t she? If what her mother said was true, then she would have her wish fulfilled and be above Sheng Yang.
“But, I’m afraid…” Huang Xiangyu hesitated. She was not a fool. How could someone with such good qualities not have high standards?
Although she was very confident in herself, it wasn’t like she didn’t know herself at all.
“What are you afraid of?” Zhao Lan glared at her. “Think about it, you’re the village belle and the only girl in the village who’s in university. Sheng Yang is from the same village as us. We don’t allow benefits to be shared with outsiders. If she doesn’t help the villagers, wouldn’t she be helping outsiders?”
“That’s true, but my relationship with Sheng Yang hasn’t been good since we were young…” Huang Xiangyu recalled all sorts of things. When they were young, she had always suppressed Sheng Yang. A year ago, Sheng Yang’s personality changed a little. Perhaps it was because she had grown up and no longer let herself be bullied by others, but every time she saw Sheng Yang, she would feel terrified. In addition, she had gone to university in the city, so the two of them didn’t have much interaction. But that didn’t mean that their relationship got any better.
“Your relationship isn’t that good, but when Sheng Yang got into a car accident a year ago…” Zhao Lan was full of confidence. “We saved her life.”
It would’ve been fine if Zhao Lan did not mention this matter, but once she did, the corners of Huang Xiangyu’s lips curled up in embarrassment. She felt that her mother was stretching it. They saved her life? It was already good that others did not find trouble with them. Forget it. Seeing that her mother was in a good mood, she did not say anything else.

If she could befriend Sheng Yang’s brothers, it would be a win-win situation.

Sheng Yuxi loitered at Grandma Liu’s house for a while. The poor lad was so restrained here that he didn’t know what to do. He was unlike Second Brother, who was alone when he was studying abroad. Hence, he could cook and do housework with ease.
Sheng Hanjing smiled and sent Sheng Yuxi out. He lied to Sheng Yuxi and told him that a certain area was much more fun, especially since there were many fortuitous encounters on the mountain.
Actually, he wanted his third brother to go out and take a look. Perhaps he could find their eldest brother, who was hidden somewhere around here. His elder brother never meant what he said, so it was likely that he was here.
Sheng Yuxi believed his words and borrowed a small basket from Grandma Liu. He was about 1.8 meters tall and carried a small basket on his back. He looked rather comical, but he was still in high spirits as he prepared to take the risk.
On the way, he met a girl wearing a crop top that revealed her small waist. The moment Huang Xiangyu saw Sheng Yuxi’s sunny and handsome face, her face immediately turned red. She did not dare to look at him at all. They were both university students, but why were those guys from her school all ugly? “Hello.”
“Hello.” Sheng Yuxi did not put on any airs and was very easy-going. After greeting her, he walked over.
Huang Xiangyu hurriedly stopped him.. “I know you’re Sheng Yang’s brother. Where are you going?”

“I’m going up the hill.”
“I can show you the way.”
Sheng Yuxi glanced at the compass given to him by his second brother and the extremely powerful navigation system in his phone. He waved his hand. “No need.”
After being rejected, Huang Xiangyu felt a little anxious. Especially when she thought about how Sheng Yang was initially a lonely girl but now led such a good life. She could see so many handsome brothers every day. Huang Xiangyu became even more anxious.
Ever since she was young, Sheng Yang had watched her wear the newest clothes of the latest trends. She could only be envious, so why were the tables turned now? Should she just be envious of Sheng Yang?
Seeing that Sheng Yuxi was about to leave, Huang Xiangyu suddenly said, “Sheng Yang and I grew up together…”
Indeed, Sheng Yuxi stopped in his tracks. He turned around and looked at Huang Xiangyu. He was interested in anything related to his sister.
Huang Xiangyu could only bite the bullet and lie, “I’m pretty close to Sheng Yang, I… I…”
She thought about it for a while. When she was young, she definitely couldn’t talk about how she bullied Sheng Yang, so after racking her brains for a long time, she only said, “I gave the Liu family food.”
Grandma Liu was very enthusiastic and treated the entire village as a big family. She would share good food with everyone. The Huang family did not return any gifts after being gifted many times. It was really outrageous to say it out loud, so one time, her mother asked her to bring a plate of stir-fried vegetables to their family.
“Oh?” The innocent Sheng Yuxi’s eyes sparkled. He had no idea how harsh the world was.

The sun was setting in the west. The rays of the setting sun shone on the small pond, making it look like it was coated with a soft orange veil.
“Why isn’t Yuxi back yet?” Sheng Hanjing stood by the door, worried. He suddenly regretted asking his third brother to go out. What if he got lost?
Sheng Yang sat by the door, reading a book. Her expression was calm, but from time to time, she would raise her head from her book and look outside.
Just as the whole family was about to head up the hill to look around, Sheng Yuxi finally returned. He was accompanied by more than 20 young ladies.
“Hello, Uncle and Aunt. My name is Huang Xiangyu. I brought this brother around the hill today.” The moment Huang Xiangyu walked over, she met Sheng Yang’s cold gaze. She was both jealous and afraid. In front of Sheng Yang, she definitely couldn’t say that she was on good terms with her.
“Oh.” Sheng You and Kang Weizhen were both smart people. They could tell at a glance whether she was a welcome person or not. Therefore, their attitude toward Huang Xiangyu was neither cold nor warm.
Sheng Hanjing, on the other hand, acted out of character. He pulled Sheng Yuxi behind him and acted like a big brother.
When their car arrived in the village today, Huang Xiangyu was far away and did not get a clear look. Now that she could see Sheng Hanjing up close, her heart palpitated.
The man looked like a piece of exquisite jade. He had a pair of beautiful eyes and an elegant demeanor. She had seen him on TV before. He was young, but he was a great musician!
Sheng Yuxi, who was on the hill just now, was too direct. He kept asking her if she was not afraid of getting diarrhea because she was wearing a top that exposed her waist. He even truly looked puzzled. She did not know what to say.
In comparison, this prince-like man was more suitable for her.
At this moment, a cold figure stood in front of Sheng Hanjing and blocked his way, just like how Sheng Hanjing protected Sheng Yuxi, the little lamb.
