Chapter 1107: 1092, Shanshan Side Story (34) Chapter 1107: 1092, Shanshan Side Story (34) The crisp potato chips skidded past the man’s clothes and crashed to the floor.

Mu Chen took a step forward, protecting Shanshan behind him, his gaze cool and concentrated as he looked towards the shadow hiding behind the shelves.

The man clicked his tongue and slowly emerged from behind the shelf, “Shanshan, it’s been a while, and you’ve become quite bold, haven’t you?”

No matter how time passed, the man’s handsome face remained unchanged, the only difference being he now had less youthful exuberance and more maturity and steadiness.

Graceful as a lily, handsome and gentle, it was Jian Luo.

“Uncle,” Shanshan exclaimed in surprise, thinking back to her words just moments ago, she fell silent.

“Shanshan, haven’t I treated you well, that you greet me with a ‘get lost’ as soon as you see me?” Jian Luo teased.

“Shanshan, big brother and second brother have been good to you, haven’t we? As soon as you see us, you throw things and tell us to get lost, is that really okay?” Nineteen slung his arm over Seventeen’s neck, following behind Jian Luo.

“Big brother, second brother, what are you doing here?” First, she was surprised, now Shanshan was truly shocked.

Weren’t her big brother and second brother supposed to be at the company with daddy and mommy, why were they here?

“What, you don’t want to see us?” Nineteen teased.

Seventeen glanced at Mu Chen, his lips barely curving, “Shanshan, is there something you’re not telling us, hmm?”

“Big brother, second brother, I missed you so much.” Shanshan ran to them, taking each by an arm.

“Shanshan, that tactic of changing the subject is really poor,” Nineteen said coolly, seeing right through her intentions.

“Shanshan, you hurt uncle’s heart too much, only thinking about Seventeen and Nineteen and not about your uncle,” Jian Luo joined in the teasing.

“…” Shanshan looked at the three of them, her mouth twitching.

They were clearly there to mess with her, weren’t they?

“Mu Chen, long time no see,” Nineteen walked up to him, hooking an arm around his neck, “The moment you come back you look for Shanshan, do you think Seventeen and I are air?”

From the first time he had set eyes on him, he knew this guy had designs on their precious little sister.

“Of course not, you are my big uncle and second uncle,” Mu Chen responded coolly.

“Pah,” Nineteen’s arm around his neck tightened slightly, almost clenching his teeth, “I’m your ‘second grandpa,’ more like it.”

The “wolf’s ambition” was finally revealed, clearly targeting their Shanshan, the little lamb; it was absolutely intolerable.

“There’s a cafe nearby, let’s go there and talk,” Jian Luo suggested warmly, noting the growing crowd of onlookers interrupting their conversation.

Being the elder, once he spoke, naturally, no one objected; most importantly, they didn’t want to be watched like monkeys in a show.

The cafe at night, with its soft, warm yellow light, added a few more touches of romance to the atmosphere.

However, the air surrounding the table of five was somewhat delicate.

“Shanshan, you and Mu Chen, you guys…” Seventeen began, stopping mid-sentence, his meaningful smile directed at Mu Chen.

“We’re friends,” Shanshan said.

“Friends, who walk holding hands on the street, and even buy you roses?” Nineteen said slowly, his gaze holding a teasing smile.

Shanshan’s gaze darted away, and she dared not look at Nineteen, “If you don’t believe it, forget it.”

“Of course, we don’t believe it,” Nineteen said, raising an eyebrow.

“I like Shanshan, and I’m pursuing her now, it’s that simple,” Mu Chen said.

Upon hearing that, Shanshan’s head almost buried itself under the table.

“Shanshan, do you want to explain?” Seventeen looked at her leisurely, “Have you accepted his offer?”

“What’s there to explain?” Shanshan said weakly.

Seventeen’s lips curved slightly, “What do you think?”

“Not at all,” Shanshan’s head dipped even lower, the tips of her ears blooming a lovely shade of pink.

Seeing her pink ears, Mu Chen’s lips bent into a beautiful smile.

“Mu Chen, your pursuit of Shanshan hasn’t been approved by us. We only have one sister and we can’t let you just take her away,” Seventeen said in a low voice.

“Seventeen, do you think if Dad found out about this, he would sweep Mu Chen out with a broom?” Nineteen teased.

Seventeen, “Absolutely possible.”

“Big brother, second brother, come on, have some coffee.” Shanshan stood up and dutifully handed the coffee to them.

Seventeen glanced at the steaming coffee and smirked, “Trying to bribe us?”

“Nope,” Shanshan said with a laugh, her small face beaming.

This was the first time Jian Luo had seen Mu Chen and he sized him up with a scrutinizing gaze.

Looks-wise, he was a match for their Shanshan.

But it was hard to say what his character and personality were like.

However, the fact that he had brought down the Olster Family showed that this man was no simple character.

Sensing Jian Luo’s observing eyes, Mu Chen calmly accepted his scrutiny.

“By the way, uncle, I haven’t even asked you yet, why are you here and following us?” Shanshan suddenly asked.

“I also checked into that hotel today. Having breakfast and getting to watch a good show was quite entertaining,” Jian Luo said jokingly.

“Uncle, you were there this morning too?” Shanshan’s little face turned red.

Had he also seen the thing about Mu Chen giving her roses?

Jian Luo nodded, smiling warmly, “Don’t worry, I saw how you rejected his roses.”

Shanshan, “…”

So embarrassing.

“Great Grandpa said he missed us, so we came over to keep him company,” Nineteen said nonchalantly.

Shanshan snorted.

Obviously, they just wanted to slack off and were using Great Grandpa as an excuse.

“Since you’re all here, what about the company?”

Mom and Dad went on a trip, and now with these two here, wouldn’t that mean nobody was looking after the company?

Seventeen said, “Uncle Shen Hao and others are at JK International, so there’s nothing to worry about.”

“And what about Jian Group?” Shanshan asked.

“Godfather, ah,” Nineteen said with a smile, looking at Jian Luo as uncle and nephew shared a knowing smile.

Across the ocean, Black Jack sneezed and looked at the mountain of files piled on his desk, his handsome face turning scarily dark.

Jian Luo, you just wait for me.

“Speaking of which, big brother, what are you planning to do for Mom’s birthday this time?” Shanshan asked.

“Don’t worry about that,” Seventeen said with a helpless smile, “Dad has already planned everything. He took Mom on a trip in advance and will only come back the day before her birthday. We’ll all get together for a meal then.”

“Mu Chen, you should come then too,” Nineteen said with a glint in his eye and a mischievous smile.

He was really looking forward to seeing their dad’s annoyed expression.

“Right, Mu Chen, you should come and eat with us too,” Shanshan, unaware of Nineteen’s thoughts, said warmly.

Mu Chen nodded and agreed.

“Shanshan, if you have someone you like, you should hurry up and tell Azhan, so he doesn’t get in too deep,” Seventeen said somberly.

“Big brother, what are you talking about?” Shanshan was stunned for a moment, “What does this have to do with Azhan?”

She had always regarded Azhan as a younger brother.
