Ace Armor?
How exciting is that?
The Shi Family Villa was spacious, and when everyone passed through the living room earlier, they had to walk around it.
No one got a clear look at the guest Uncle Shi was entertaining; they only caught a glimpse of his general features - a middle-aged man around fifty with an average build.
The term "Ace Armor" seemed difficult to associate with someone like that.
But Shi Li couldn't be wrong.
Zuo Hengyi couldn't help but turn back to look at the person sitting on the sofa downstairs. The contrast intrigued him, and he wanted to learn more about this person.
Actually, when Zuo Hengyi turned his head, he initially wanted to exchange glances with Fu Huixing. Among those present, only he and Fu Huixing could hear Shi Li's voice, so naturally, they should share a look to communicate their mutual shock.
However, Fu Huixing neither turned around nor looked at him, just silently staring ahead as if nothing had happened.
This reaction was a skill developed by the students of Class 1, Grade 2, trained by Shi Li - maintaining composure no matter how explosive the news might be.
Yet his composed reaction made Zuo Hengyi feel extremely disappointed, like being doused with cold water in public.
But this didn't stop him from X-raying the person with his gaze.
He felt somewhat envious of Uncle Shi.
However, Zuo Hengyi's observation time was running out as he followed Shi Quan upstairs, getting further away from this brother.
Zuo Hengyi finally thought of a fitting description: in the past, carriages and horses moved slowly, too slow for gossip to spread.
Shi Quan led everyone to the leisure area upstairs and invited the guests to make themselves comfortable.
"Could it be that my brother has a secret child outside and is rushing to see the kid?"
Shi Ruan's imagination had always been wild.
And Second Young Master Fu actually engaged with this unreliable theory, seriously discussing with Shi Ruan, "That can't be, right? Your brother isn't that kind of person, is he?"
As he spoke, he became uncertain himself, "But you never really know someone completely. Who knows, maybe your brother only appears upright but is actually quite wild behind the scenes."
Zuo Hengyi nodded silently, having just experienced such a shock himself, he found these words quite reasonable.
Just as everyone was engrossed in their discussion, Shi Ruan's phone rang. Shi Li glanced at it before turning away.
Shi Ruan answered the phone, made a couple of acknowledging sounds, then stood up from the bean bag, "That was quick, I'll go downstairs to meet you."

It had been only ten minutes since Shi Ruan told everyone Ji Chunsheng would be coming. Either he flew here, or he had already been on his way when he messaged Shi Ruan.
Shi Li snorted internally - he must be quite confident about himself to assume Shi Ruan wouldn't refuse him.
Zuo Hengyi blinked his eyes; he had only just learned during their chat that Shi Ruan's boyfriend was Ji Chunsheng.
Ji Chunsheng was something of a celebrity in their class, even though he wasn't in it - the class was full of stories about him.
He was quite eager to meet Ji Chunsheng and broaden his horizons.
Today had really been worth it, with one piece of gossip after another.
Zuo Hengyi couldn't understand why Feng Yunhe had to go home - wouldn't it be better to stay and enjoy all this gossip together?
Then he thought, Feng Yunhe was different from him; he didn't enjoy gossip.
He realized he was being shallow.
Feng Yunhe: Missing ongoing gossip for the sake of past gossip.
