Chapter 1973: Is Sister-in-law Something You Can Address Her with?
This was obviously for s.h.i.+ Xiaoya.
And everyone understood why after watching.
And they congratulated Han Zhuoling.
At this moment, he had s.h.i.+ Xiaoya locked in his embrace while scrolling through his phone.
This way, s.h.i.+ Xiaoya could watch with him comfortably.
s.h.i.+ Xiaoya saw that many people congratulated Han Zhuoling on WeChat.
And could only watch as Han Zhuoling added her into the 8864 group.
They all used their real names in there for easy identification.
s.h.i.+ Xiaoya eyed the names of the big shots quickly scrolling past the screen.
Qi Chenglin: “It’s Xiaoya, right?”
Wei Zilin: “Welcome, welcome. Our group has grown bigger once more.”
Lu Man: “Welcome, Sister-in-law!”
Yan Beicheng: “Already calling her Sister-in-law? Welcome, Little Sister-in-law.”
Wei Zhiqian: “Welcome, Little Sister-in-law.”
Han Zhuoli: “Wei Zhiqian, you’re younger than my brother, don’t take advantage! Welcome, Sister-in-law.”
Nan Jingheng: “That’s right. What’s more, regardless of age, we’ve already agreed that whoever gets out of bachelorhood first is the eldest. Lil’ Qian, you don’t make the cut in either areas, so you’re just a youngling. Welcome, Little Sister-in-law.”
Wei Zhiqian: “Lil’, my foot! This boy, how rude! Is ‘Little Sister-in-law’ something you can call her?”
Chu Zhaoyang: “Welcome, Little Sister-in-law.”
Wei Ziqi: “Is ‘Little Sister-in-law’ something you can call her? Welcome, Little Sister-in-law.”
s.h.i.+ Xiaoya was stunned. She was suddenly so many people’s younger sister-in-law.
Han Zhuoling seemed to have benefitted!
Han Zhuoling: “What a noisy bunch.”
Qi Chengzhi: “We make you sound younger! You should thank us. If not for us, the age gap between you and Little Sister-in-law would be too big!”
Han Zhuoling: “…”
He didn’t feel that his age was a problem before.
He was in his prime, and he even thought of himself as still young!
But after meeting s.h.i.+ Xiaoya, he’d already started feeling he was old even before they got together.
Every time he saw s.h.i.+ Xiaoya, he felt she was so energetic, oozing youthfulness from inside out.
He would wish he was younger by a few years.
And now, Qi Chengzhi’s words pierced his heart.
Because the group wasn’t big, s.h.i.+ Xiaoya didn’t need to agree before she was added into the chat.
Thus, her phone wasn’t with her.
s.h.i.+ Xiaoya kept grasping blindly for her phone.
Han Zhuoling quickly stilled her movements. “What are you moving about for?”
If she wriggled any more than this, he wouldn’t be able to control himself for sure.
“I’m finding my phone,” s.h.i.+ Xiaoya said. “You added me to the group, so I’ve got to say my h.e.l.los or they’ll think I’m rude.”
Han Zhuoling’s arms circled around her, his lips quirking upwards while his eyes flashed cunningly.
He then stuffed his phone into her hands. “Using mine’s the same.”
“Alright.” s.h.i.+ Xiaoya didn’t think much; she wasn’t as crafty as Han Zhuoling.
Completely unaware of his plan, she took his phone and keyed in: “h.e.l.lo, everyone, I’m s.h.i.+ Xiaoya!”
And added a sentence immediately after: “I don’t think he’s much older than me, his age’s just perfect.”
s.h.i.+ Xiaoya typed intently with her head bent, missing how warmth had flooded Han Zhuoling’s eyes as he watched her key those two sentences.
He couldn’t suppress himself.
This girl, claiming she wanted to introduce herself yet, in reality, just wanted to stand up for him.
Han Zhuoling never thought there’d come a day when he’d be defended by this girl.
