Chapter 578 Climbing Up the Wealthy Family (4)_1
"Yes, yes, I won’t be called Zhu Zi anymore, I won’t be called Zhu Zi anymore. Now I go by Chen Shimei." The onlookers squeezed their eyes at each other, watching Old man Chen strut about. He hadn’t even assumed an official post yet, but he was already putting on airs. If his son really became an official, wouldn’t his eyes rise to the top of his head? However, even if his eyes reached the top of his head, it would be no use. He was still blind, unable to see anything.
Everyone chuckled and kept repeating ’Chen Shimei,’ saying how nice the name sounded. Lin Yuan stood to the side, her mouth twitching as she listened. She wondered what on earth Wang Qiaoxin’s father was thinking, naming someone Chen Shimei. Did he really think he was the most beautiful man in the world?
Lin Yuan muttered to herself, feeling fortunate that none of the people here had heard the story of Chen Shimei. Otherwise, Chen Zhu would have died of anger from this name before being laughed to death by others’ mockery.
Xia Zheng looked at Lin Yuan with surprise. It was just a name change, so why had this girl become so, well, abnormal?
"Lin Yuan, come here, help me figure out how to do this." Lan Hua had long lost interest in watching Chen Zhu and had returned to the yard. But now, she stood at the kitchen door, beckoning Lin Yuan over.
"Alright, coming." Lin Yuan responded and turned to head home. Xia Zheng followed along but was stopped by Lan Hua’s smiling obstruction, "Young Master, you don’t need to come over for this. It’s nothing major; Lin Yuan and I can take care of it. Please don’t come, don’t come."
Xia Zheng paused, clearly noting that Lan Hua had something confidential to say to Lin Yuan. Considering that both of them were women, he didn’t mind and turned back to his room.
Naturally, Lin Yuan also noticed Lan Hua’s gossipy expression. Sure enough, as soon as she reached the kitchen door, Lan Hua pulled her in, "Hey, what are you doing? Just say it if you have something to say, why be so secretive, umph."
