Chapter 95: Chapter 95: I Don’t Have a Boyfriend Yet

Before long, Liu Shiting drove Jiang Silu to Yunhai No.1.

Jiang Silu was amazed as she looked at the community’s architecture and surroundings.

’So Liu Shiting’s family is this rich.’

But on second thought, it made sense. After all, what ordinary family would just give their child a BMW for their eighteenth birthday?

It would be a lie to say Jiang Silu wasn’t envious, but she didn’t show it in an exaggerated way. To her, all that mattered was having a place to live with her brother and mother.

Soon, Liu Shiting led Jiang Silu to her apartment.

She opened the door.

Liu Shiting immediately made the introduction. "Mom, this is my roommate, Jiang Silu."

Then, she said to Jiang Silu, "Lulu, this is my mom."

Jiang Silu immediately bowed slightly and greeted her, "Hello, Mrs. Liu."

"Oh, hello." Mrs. Liu looked Jiang Silu up and down, her face a mixture of surprise and delight.

The surprise was because of the dress she was wearing. It was just as expensive as her daughter had said, and it gave her a very noble air.

As for the delight...

The girl was truly beautiful.

Poised and graceful—the ideal daughter-in-law for any mother-in-law.

She was as sweet and well-behaved as the actress Mao Xiaotong from that drama she’d been watching recently.

Mrs. Liu quickly ushered them in. "Quick, come in and sit down."

So Liu Shiting led Jiang Silu into the apartment.

Jiang Silu took in the layout of the large, single-story apartment.

It was very spacious inside, clearly twice the size of her own home.

The decor and furnishings were all exquisite.

This was definitely the setup of a wealthy family.

Seeing this, Jiang Silu grew even more nervous.

But Mrs. Liu was very warm. She immediately took a drink from the refrigerator and handed it to Jiang Silu. "Here, Silu, have a drink first."

"Thank you, Mrs. Liu," Jiang Silu said gratefully.

Then Mrs. Liu turned her head toward a bedroom and called out, "Liu Peng, are you ready yet?"

"Coming, coming."

A young man walked out of the room.

Seeing him, Liu Shiting called out, "Brother."

"Ah, little sis is back." Liu Peng deliberately puffed out his chest and stood up straight to show off his height, responding with a smile.

Mrs. Liu took the opportunity to introduce him. "This is Shiting’s older brother, Liu Peng. He just graduated from university and is currently a team leader in the marketing department at his father’s company."

"Brother, this is my roommate, Jiang Silu," Liu Shiting said, looking at Liu Peng.

Seeing this, Jiang Silu also responded, "Hello, Liu Peng."

"Hello, hello." Liu Peng stared at Jiang Silu and couldn’t help but swallow hard.

He never imagined his sister’s roommate would be so beautiful.

In that pink dress, she looked just like a little princess.

He had always thought he didn’t like girls younger than him, but now he realized he just didn’t like unattractive ones.

’But a young, beautiful girl... that’s... absolutely perfect!!’

Liu Peng sat down across from Jiang Silu, pretending to be serious. He glanced at the drink on the table and said disapprovingly, "Mom, why would you give our guest such a cold drink?"

Then he turned to Jiang Silu with concern. "Can you drink cold things? Should I get you a room-temperature one?"

"It’s okay, I... I can drink cold things," Jiang Silu said, blushing.

Beside them, Liu Shiting couldn’t stand seeing her brother putting on such a prim and proper act of concern.

She had just wanted to invite Jiang Silu over for dinner to become better friends.

Who knew her mom would try to set Silu up with her brother?

She knew all too well what kind of person her brother was.

Hearing this, Mrs. Liu also pretended to slap her own forehead. "Oh my, I forgot that it’s best for young ladies not to have cold drinks. My son is so thoughtful."

With that, she tactfully withdrew from the "main battlefield," leaving the conversation to the three young people.

Since Liu Peng was older than them, he asked a couple of questions. "By the way, do you two have a lot of classes?"

"It’s not too bad," Liu Shiting answered.

"So when you don’t have class, are you usually in your dorm?" Liu Peng continued to ask.

"When I don’t have class, I just drive out and have fun," Liu Shiting explained.

Liu Peng was speechless.

’Come on, dear sister, I wasn’t asking you! I was asking your roommate!’

Just then, Jiang Silu added in a quiet voice, "When I don’t have class, I do some part-time jobs, but I’m mostly in the dorm."

Hearing this, Liu Peng immediately analyzed two points.

One: She’s innocent and capable, and she even uses her free time to work part-time.

Two: She doesn’t have a boyfriend. Otherwise, why would she spend all her time in the dorm?

Just as he was about to ask for more useful information, Mrs. Liu came out with a dish. "Time to eat~"

Immediately after, the maid followed, also bringing out dishes.

Seeing this, Liu Peng naturally had to put on a show and started helping out as well.

Jiang Silu wanted to help too, but Liu Shiting stopped her. "There’s no reason for a guest to help serve the food. You just relax and get ready to eat~"

Jiang Silu smiled sheepishly.

Soon, a full table of dishes was served.

Mrs. Liu gestured to Jiang Silu. "Come, come, Silu, make yourself at home. Let’s eat."

"Thank you, Mrs. Liu," Jiang Silu said.

She had to admit, she was quite surprised.

Since the maid didn’t join them at the table, there were only four people eating, but there were ten dishes.

Whether they could finish it all was another matter, but to Jiang Silu, this gesture showed that Liu Shiting’s family placed great importance on her as a guest.

She felt a small touch of warmth in her heart.

During the meal, Mrs. Liu kept putting food on Jiang Silu’s plate, saying with concern, "Silu, eat more. Look how skinny you are, just like Shiting."

"Thank you, Mrs. Liu," Jiang Silu thanked her once again.

Then Mrs. Liu continued with the pleasantries. "My Shiting just loves to have fun. As soon as she’s out of class, she runs off to play. So if there’s anything she doesn’t understand in her studies, I hope you can help her out, Silu."

"Shiting is amazing at drawing. Sometimes I’m the one asking her for help," Jiang Silu praised.

Liu Shiting chimed in from the side, "Silu is even participating in the Landscape Cup design competition. She’s the only first-year student doing it."

"Look at her, so impressive. You should learn from her," Mrs. Liu instructed her daughter.

"I know~" Liu Shiting nodded.

As the conversation deepened, Mrs. Liu probed, "By the way, Silu, besides attending class and drawing, do you just stay in your dorm?"

"I also work part-time at the cafeteria and the library," Jiang Silu replied.

"What a good kid," Mrs. Liu praised. "But... doesn’t that leave you with very little time for dating?"

"I... I don’t have a boyfriend yet," Jiang Silu said, blushing.

After hearing this, Mrs. Liu glanced at Liu Peng and immediately patted his shoulder. "Silu, not to toot my own horn, but Shiting’s brother doesn’t have a girlfriend either, and he’s a pretty reliable guy. If you have free time, you could let Shiting’s brother show you around Jinling."

Jiang Silu became awkward upon hearing this.

She hadn’t expected Mrs. Liu to start promoting Liu Shiting’s brother.

She immediately stammered shyly, "Mrs. Liu... I... I’m busy with my studies right now, so as for dating, I’m not really..."

Before Jiang Silu could finish, Mrs. Liu waved her hand. "I’m not saying I’m trying to match you two up right now. I was just thinking that since you’re around the same age, you could hang out together, right? Whether or not you young people hit it off is ultimately up to you."

Then she urged Liu Peng, "Hurry up and take out your phone. Add Silu on WeChat."

"Okay." Liu Peng took out his phone and looked at Jiang Silu. "Silu, how about we add each other on WeChat? You’re about the same age as my sister, so you’re basically like a sister to me. As your big brother, I can take you out to have some fun in the future."

Jiang Silu looked awkward, but not wanting to be rude, she could only nod and take out her phone to add him on WeChat.
