"Are you going out today?" Sister Ye Yun saw her little niece dressed in sportswear, seemingly with a lot of things packed in her bag, and asked curiously.
Ye Shu nodded, "So friends are eting today to go hiking. Aunt, do you want to co with ?"
"They are all your friends, what would I do there?" Sister Ye Yun instinctively rejected the idea. Although she wasn’t very old, she was mature ntally and felt she probably wouldn’t fit in.
"There are people older than us going too. A lot of us will be there, and after hiking, we’ll go fishing and have a picnic. Aunt, you just ca back and don’t have many friends here, it could be a way to relax and et so people," Ye Shu persuaded.
"You have a point, Xiao Yun. You don’t have much to do at ho anyway. It’s better to go and have a look than to stay ho. Everyone there has a similar background, eting them might co in handy soday." Ye Changfeng said, reading the newspaper, supporting the suggestion.
Sister Ye Yun was indeed tempted by this idea. She planned to start her own business, and eting more people could only be beneficial. Besides, most of Ye Shu’s friends were set to inherit family businesses, which might prove useful in the future.
It’s always easier to form friendships when young, more enduring than those made later. As an adult, surely she could connect with a bunch of kids, right?
Thinking this, she went to change into sportswear herself, tying her hair into a high ponytail, making her look particularly spirited.
"Aunt, once you step out today, the guys won’t be able to take their eyes off you," Ye Shu teased.
Sister Ye Yun tapped her on the forehead, "You kids, where do you get so many ideas?"
Ye Shu retorted, "Aunt, you’re not that old either, you’re only turning eighteen next month!"
Sister Ye Yun realized it too, she was just eighteen, with her whole life ahead of her, truly the best age in life, the thought put her in a good mood.
As the aunt and niece were chatting, there was a knock on the door outside, "Ye Shu, it’s , are you ready?"
From the voice, it was a teenager. Sister Ye Yun found it familiar and curiously looked over.
As she saw the handso young man walk in, a pang of sourness hit her heart. Why could her niece Xiao Shu et such a dedicated, ambitious, and smart person? While all she t were jerks?
But no matter how envious she might be, he was her future niece’s fiancé, she nodded politely at Zhang Beichen. The Zhang family’s na was no smaller than the Ye family’s, they might have collaboration opportunities in the future.
However, Ye Shu frowned slightly upon seeing Zhang Beichen. Because of so joke her grandpa made with the elders of the Zhang family years ago, Zhang Beichen seed to take the marriage arrangent seriously, asserting dominance everywhere, which made her uncomfortable.
Clearly, both she and her mom had already refused it, she was just fourteen, why should she be thinking about future marriage? It only brought jokes from people.
"Is this your little boyfriend? So handso, he must attract a lot of jealousy, right?" Sister Ye Yun was coincidentally one of those teasing, which made Ye Shu feel even worse.
"Aunt, I have no relationship with him, don’t say that anymore in the future," Ye Shu patiently explained.
But Sister Ye Yun didn’t listen because of mories from a past life, she was sure Ye Shu would marry Zhang Beichen eventually, so she didn’t hesitate to say, "Why be shy? There’s nothing to be embarrassed about, others wouldn’t even have ti to be jealous of such a boyfriend!"
Ye Shu pouted, "I don’t like him, whoever wants him can take him."
Sister Ye Yun thought she was just shy, then greeted Zhang Beichen, "Hello, I’m Xiao Shu’s aunt, going out with you all today. I just ca back from abroad, I’ll probably rely on you for care."
Sister Ye Yun looked quite pretty, and having been reborn, she knew how to dress up. This smile was particularly radiant and attractive, especially with her amiable attitude, it made Zhang Beichen develop a fondness for her.
"Having such a beautiful sister join us, everyone will surely be delighted," Zhang Beichen, being only sixteen this year, was less mature than he would be later, thus joking with Sister Ye Yun.
Sister Ye Yun chuckled upon hearing this, "I’m Xiao Shu’s aunt, how could you call sister?"
This was when Ye Shu spoke up, "Why not call you that? Zhang Beichen is not considered one of our family, obviously we’d base it on age. Aunt, you’re only two years older than him anyway."
"Fine, call whatever you want, if you really call aunt like Xiao Shu does, I might feel a bit awkward," Sister Ye Yun didn’t mind, after all, after she and Zhang Beichen got married, she’d eventually change her title.
Since none of them were old enough to drive, a driver from the Zhang family took them to the eting point, where seven or eight young boys and girls had already gathered.
Sister Ye Yun looked closely and noticed they were all future heirs to family businesses, she couldn’t help but sigh internally. She never connected with these people in her past life, yet this ti, due to a twist of fate, she had the opportunity to et them.
Initially, they were a bit resistant to Sister Ye Yun’s presence, mainly because she was Ye Shu’s aunt who’s soday only set to receive dividends from the Ye Group, unlike those inheritors.
However, very quickly they were won over by her charm and intelligence, especially the way she spoke, always insightful, making them realize things and reproach themselves for being so petty, actually judging people by such insignificant standards.
Everyone was about the sa age, and upon realizing Ye Yun’s talent, they quickly embraced her, with so even regretting not having t her earlier, given her years abroad.
Watching these kids amused Sister Ye Yun internally. As an adult, did she fear this little discomfort? Indeed, with just a few words from her, she soon beca their leader.
This strengthened her desire to start her own business earlier. She was even thinking about recent opportunities, not wanting to waste such good timing, yet regretting these heirs were underage, unable to control their family businesses, offering her no place to capitalize on.
But forming good relationships now surely had its future benefits, thus, despite having little interest in hiking, fishing, or barbecues, she didn’t show any impatience, using her past life’s knowledge to enlighten others, earning accolades.
"Sister Ye Yun, you’re so impressive," Zhang Beichen gazed at her with shining eyes.
"Really?" Sister Ye Yun pushed her bangs back, "I’ve just played these gas before, why are you still here? Didn’t Xiao Shu go crab hunting?"
Hearing this, Zhang Beichen’s gaze dimd, "Xiao Shu doesn’t seem to like being around her."
"How could that be? I think you two are great!"
A spark of hope ignited in Zhang Beichen’s eyes, "Sister Yun, do you also think I’m a good match with Xiao Shu?"
"Of course, but Xiao Shu is still young, maybe she hasn’t realized her emotions in this aspect yet. Keep working hard," she said, making a supportive gesture.
