“Alright, then train hard. Don’t embarrass our family.”

Liu Cui wanted to say something, but Shi Song stopped her. “The village chief and Mr. Liu think highly of her, so there’s no reason for us not to support her.”

Liu Cui was dissatisfied and wanted to retort, but she heard her daughter’s voice outside the door.

“Where did everyone go?!” Shi Yan shouted.

Liu Cui was afraid that she would embarrass herself in front of outsiders, so she hurriedly went out. “Yan’er, someone from the city is here.”

After Liu Cui lifted the curtain, she saw Fang Rou following behind Shi Yan.

“Hello, Grandma.”

When Fang Rou’s sweet voice came from outside the door, Shi Sen clenched her fists tightly.

When Chu Liu noticed Shi Sen’s abnormality, he walked closer to her and asked with concern, “What’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?”

“Ahem!” When Liu De noticed Chu Liu leaning against Shi Sen, he suddenly coughed and said to Shi Song and Bai Lan, “If you guys have no objections, I won’t disturb you guys anymore. I’ll bring Shi Sen back to the city in a few days.”

“The city?”

Shi Yan’s attention was attracted by the village chief and two strangers in the room. When she heard that the man was bringing Shi Sen back to the city, she was surprised.

“Shi Sen is going to the city? Why?!” Shi Yan frowned and was clearly dissatisfied with Shi Sen’s departure.

Liu De and Chu Liu ignored Shi Yan. The village chief tried to smooth things over by explaining, “The coach from the city has taken a fancy to Shi Sen’s talent and plans to bring her back to the city to train.”

“What talent can she have?” Shi Yan looked disdainful as she said to Liu De bluntly, “If you want talent, bring Rou Rou along. What’s so good about Shi Sen?”

Fang Rou, who was behind Shi Yan, looked a little shy. She had been hiding behind Shi Yan and sizing up the two unfamiliar faces in front of her.

When she saw Chu Liu’s face, Fang Rou’s cheeks burned. She had never seen such a good-looking guy before. Fang Rou smoothed the hair by her ear gently as she glanced at Chu Liu and deliberately said in a weak voice, “Mom, don’t say that. Although my grades are better than my sister’s, my sister has her own merits as well.”

When Shi Sen saw Fang Rou’s pretentious appearance, she felt a little nauseous. She was really stupid to lose to such a person in her previous life.

“What merits does she have?!” Shi Yan was very dissatisfied with her daughter’s modesty and continued to say to Liu De, “The entire village knows that Shi Sen can’t compare to Fang Rou. If you want to bring Shi Sen to the city, you have to bring Fang Rou along!”

This was the first time Liu De had seen such an unreasonable woman and he didn’t want to waste time with her, so he said to the village chief, “Why should I change my mind?”

The village chief smiled obsequiously. Shi Yan was famous for being unreasonable.

Originally, Chu Liu didn’t care about these two people who suddenly appeared, but when he heard Fang Rou’s name, Chu Liu was a little surprised. If Fang Rou wasn’t a character in a novel, was Luo Yu, whom Shi Sen had mentioned previously, also a real person?

Was the story that Shi Sen had told him true?

Feeling that she seemed to be hiding a secret, Chu Liu sized up Shi Sen curiously.

When Fang Rou noticed that the handsome young man had been staring at her cousin, she was very jealous. Shi Sen had a beautiful face since she was young and many people liked her, so Fang Rou had always been dissatisfied with her.

“Mom, don’t make things difficult for the village chief. How can things always be fair?” Fang Rou looked aggrieved, making the village chief and Liu De feel uncomfortable, as if they had really done something wrong.

“Fair?” Shi Yan raised her voice at Shi Sen and Bai Lan as she said sarcastically, “They look like vixens, so how can things be fair?! I have to let the villagers judge! Only good-looking people can go to the city? How can that be fair?!”

Shi Sen felt even more disgusted with her sharp-tongued aunt. This mother and daughter were really despicable. If she had gone to the city with her mother today, Shi Yan would probably say many nasty things tomorrow.

Shi Sen could see the worry on her mother’s face. Just as she was about to speak, she heard the village chief’s voice.

“You can’t say that. Mr. Liu has taken a fancy to Shi Sen’s ability! What does Fang Rou know?!” The village chief was a little dissatisfied with the unreasonable Shi Yan and no longer stood on ceremony with her.

“Fang Rou knows everything!” Shi Yan said very straightforwardly. She didn’t believe that Shi Sen could compare to her daughter.

“Is that so? I’m going to the city to play table tennis. Does Fang Rou wanna go too?” Shi Sen’s tone was calm, but her words silenced the entire room.
