[~楿] to encourage others to do something; 2. to be frightened, frightened. In Internet language, the word is also used as a corrupted word for “㞞” (sóng), meaning “to satirize people’s weakness and incompetence”.

Originally, the relationship between Shen Ran and Min Min was already not good, and when the two met, they were at each other’s throats.
Shen Ran originally wanted to maintain the superficial harmony to give Min Xingchuan a face.
Hearing Min Min’s tone, he couldn’t hold back his petulant temper.
And this sister’s personality was a bit strange, and she was full of love brother complex2 Raw 恋兄情结(liàn xiōng qíngjié); Love brother complex is like Oedipus complex. It is because she has a good relationship with her brother and respects her brother very much, so when she chooses a spouse, she will compare the other person with her brother, intentionally or unintentionally., so the original owner Shen Ran especially despised her.
Not only did Shen Ran despise her, but Min Xingchuan also avoided her a bit.
After all, close contact phobia was something that does not pick people, he hates whoever that come closer.
Sure enough, after Shen Ran said these words, Min Min said angrily, “Brother! Look at him! How does he look like a mistress of the Min family?”
Shen Ran rolled his eyes happily and said, “There’s no such thing as like or don’t look like a mistress, there’s only ‘is or isn’t’. I married to Brother Chuan and I am the mistress of the Min family, it’s useless for you to be angry. It is you who are impudent. Do you not take me in your eyes, or do you not take Brother Chuan in your eyes? It’s never mind you don’t call me sister-in-law, but you still making him lose face everywhere. At that time, it was Brother Chuan who nodded to marry me, and he already approved of me, so why do you have so many opinions? Oh, it doesn’t matter. After all, I don’t need your approval, and I’m also Brother Chuan’s legal partner.”
Min Min was unable to catch her breath and almost wanted to vomit blood.
She didn’t know when Shen Ran became so eloquent. Apart from being rude, he had never used this kind of round about way of cursing people before.
It was obviously the truth, but it was extremely harsh in Min Min’s ears.
Tears swirled in her eyes, Min Min’s chest heaved and she probably didn’t know how to refute him.
Shen Ran smiled, but he was relaxed, looked at Cheng Yu next to her, and asked, “Aren’t you going to introduce me?”
In fact, Min Xingchuan was a little worried. Shen Ran was very sensitive to the handsome men and women of his age who appeared around him, and he had caused many troubles.
Therefore, when he goes out to talk about things, he usually doesn’t bring Shen Ran with him.
He thought it would be difficult to end today, at least it will in chaos before he was going to give up. Unexpectedly, he did not directly point to the other person’s nose and asked who that person was, nor did he asked whether Min Xingchuan hated him and wanted to develop another relationship.
Instead, he asked this sentence calmly.
Min Xingchuan didn’t refute him in front of outsiders either, and introduced in a low voice, “This is Cheng Yu, the teacher of Min Min in M country’s Conservatory of Music.”
Shen Ran was a little surprised. It was the first time he had seen such a young teacher.
He should look about the same age as Shen Ran, and he has become a teacher, but Shen Ran was still so childish, no wonder he was being compared.
Moreover he was in art, and he has good taste at first glance, no wonder they keep talking about Chopin.
Shen Ran tilted his head and said, “Mr. Cheng, hello, it’s the first time we meet, please give me more advice.”
Cheng Yu smiled and said, “Young Master Shen forgot? We met once at the charity auction last time.”
Shen Ran pretended to be surprised: “Really? I have face blindness, hope Mr. Cheng don’t mind.”
Cheng Yu was a little embarrassed, and only said one sentence: “Young Master Shen forget more things. You bought a painting for 5 million that day, and I lost slightly.”
Shen Ran made a stunned expression and said, “Oh, I remembered it! Ai, I’m so sorry, I snatch away something that Mr. Cheng care so much. But I gave that painting as a gift, and the other party really likes calligraphy and painting, so I’m sorry, Mr. Cheng.”
Cheng Yu smiled and said, “Don’t mention it, Young Master Shen, I know that you spent all your time preparing birthday gifts for Mr. Min in previous years, I’m naturally happy to realize your wish.”
Shen Ran also smiled and said, “You misunderstood, this painting is a present for my brother.”
Embarrassment spread in the field, and Cheng Yu didn’t know how to answer for a while.
Min Xingchuan’s expression couldn’t be seen, probably because he thought of his own misunderstanding at that time.
In fact, when he saw Shen Ran trying so hard to bought this painting, he was still thinking, he finally gave the right gift.
In the early years, Shen Jue liked calligraphy and painting, it was still him(MX) who brought him(SJ) into the pit.
Now that he was getting busy, Min Xingchuan was no longer too obsessed with those calligraphy and painting, and he gave them to his grandfather who also likes calligraphy and painting.
He originally thought that Shen Ran bought the calligraphy and painting for him, but he didn’t expect it to be for Shen Jue.
Probably due to reversal of the wheel of fortune, he also acted self-sentimental once.
He didn’t really take it to heart, anyway, he also didn’t care about such a painting.
The atmosphere was getting more and more wrong, but Shen Ran smiled freely and said, “Why don’t Mr. Cheng stay and taste the fresh vegetables from our Min Family Manor? And the yellow beef we raised ourselves, I’ll ask Manager Hou to kill a cow now to entertain our distinguished guests.”
His appearance as a mistress was too natural, on the contrary Min Xingchuan didn’t know what to say for a while.
Cheng Yu was about to refuse, but Min Min, who was beside him, stepped forward to hold Cheng Yu’s arm and said, “Yes, Mr. Cheng! You are worthy of this distinguished guest. In the early years, you and my brother were good friends from kindergarten to elementary school. Childhood friend, innocent playmates. If it not Uncle Cheng’s whole family moved to M country, perhaps you guys are not only good friends. ”
Shen Ran suddenly understood, no wonder Su Su would say that Cheng Yu and Min Xingchuan were reunited.
It turned out that they were close childhood friend, and it was not surprising that Min Xingchuan would marry such a person.
So outstanding, and doing things fairly well.
Just don’t know if he succeeded in taking down Min Xingchuan and cured his phobia of intimacy.
Shen Ran was thoughtful, yet he still appropriately give a very decent smile, he stepped forward and said, “Oh? There is still such a relationship? Then we should entertain him well. After all, my husband’s friend is my friend, I will personally instruct the kitchen to prepare dinner.”
Saying that, Shen Ran still looked at Min Xingchuan with a shy look on his face: “Isn’t that right, husband?”
Min Xingchuan, who had been observing Shen Ran’s saucy operations3Raw 骚操作(sāo cāozuò); awesome operations. It usually refers to some unexpected moves made by people, especially when playing games, and some unexpected tricks will be made, which can be called saucy operations., was suddenly cued. He didn’t know how to answer for a while, but nodded lightly.
As if receiving some kind of encouragement, Shen Ran turned around and went to the manor with a look of excitement, and went look for the one who was in charge of the manor to prepare a dinner party.
Looking at Min Min again, it turned out that her small face was flushed red, but there was no point of occurrence.
Even if she tried to complained to Min Xingchuan, she couldn’t find any reason.
Complain that he called Min Xingchuan ‘husband’? But he was right to called him that. Shen Ran was indeed married to Min Xingchuan. If he don’t call him husband, could it be that he had to call him boss?
Cheng Yu’s eyes also showed some doubts, isn’t all of them said that Shen Ran was willful, arrogant and possessive.
No matter what kind of beautiful men and women appear around Min xingchuan, don’t asked reason but make trouble first?
See him today, yet it felt that he was different from the rumored one.
He frowned, not knowing what he was thinking, but he heard Min Xingchuan saying, “Please, here!”
Cheng Yu nodded appropriately, followed Min Xingchuan and entered the lobby together.
Shen Ran prepared a table of exquisite dishes after being so busy, and of course there were also the small fried yellow beef and seasonal vegetables that he said.
He also served a refreshing fruit plate before they officially served the dishes, and while he brought the fruit plate, he introduced: “This Mr. Cheng won’t be able to eat outside, it’s brewed from the red wine of our Min family’s winery. This snow pear is also the best snow pear produced in the manor, sweet and crispy, and paired with a mellow and fragrant red wine, the taste is absolutely amazing!”
Cheng Yu immediately said, “Young Master Shen is so considerate, I am really ashamed.”
Shen Ran’s face was still full of smiles, and he said, “It’s my duty to entertain friends for Brother Chuan. It’s also my fault that I have no ambition, and I just want to be a good wife by his side.”
As he said that, he calmly went to look at Min Xingchuan, only to feel that his face was going to become sore because of smiling. When will this play end?
Fortunately, Cheng Yu was not uncountable. After eating, he left with Min Min immediately.
Everyone at this meal was ignorant of the taste and had their own thoughts.
More than half of the whole table of delicious food was left, and even several dishes were left untouched.
Shen Ran enthusiastically sent the person into the car, and exhaled softly: Damn, I finally sent him off!
Act on a character was also very hard, but in order not to let Cheng Yu see his depth, he can only act.
When he went back in the evening, Shen Ran and Min Xingchuan were in a car, he was so tired that his face cramped, and he was a little down-hearted.
The atmosphere in the car began to become awkward again, Shen Ran thought to himself, should he act another show again?
However, he heard Min Xingchuan say, “Today you…don’t seem to be the same.”
Shen Ran turned to look at Min Xingchuan with a well-behaved look, and said, “Uh? Brother Chuan, what’s the difference?”
Saying that, Shen Ran rubbed against Min Xingchuan’s side.
Looking at the familiar, eager eyes, Min Xingchuan’s eyes dimmed again and said, “No, I think too much.”
He doesn’t make trouble today, he probably has other plans!
On the way, Shen Ran received a message from his eldest brother Shen Jue, saying that the flight was tomorrow and that he could stay in H City for a few more days.
Shen Ran replied: “That’s great! Brother, the day after tomorrow is your birthday, I’m going to send you a birthday present tomorrow.”
Shen Jue replied with a surprised expression and asked, “Are you really prepare it? Brother didn’t love you in vain, stinky boy.”
Shen Ran sent few rolling eyes back at Shen Jue, then closed the dialog box and opened Ruan Letian’s dialog box again.
Ruan Letian has been filming the final promotional scenes these days, and he has madly scolding his agent too many times at Shen Ran here.
Seeing his swearing messages one by one, Shen Ran couldn’t help laughing out loud.
Min Xingchuan glanced at him, and saw Shen Ran typing quickly. The remark displayed on the dialog box was: Son.
Min Xingchuan: ………
He doesn’t understand this kind of play between young people, and he selectively ignores it.
Shen Ran asked Ruan Letian: “My brother is coming back tomorrow, do you want to pick him up with me?”
Ruan Letian had obviously finished work, and he replied almost in seconds: “Is he coming back tomorrow? Okay! I just happened to rest tomorrow. You don’t know, I’ve been tossing to death these days! Already agreed to give me a vacation, and yet deduct my time, brokerage companies have no humanity.”
Shen Ran replied: “Doesn’t it mean that you are very popular, and you should be anxious when you are really free.”
Ruan Letian replied: “That’s true. I heard that Qiao Qiyun has been decline of two endorsements, hahahahahahahaha, he deserve it! Pulling and trampling4Raw 拉踩逼(Lā cǎi bī); puling and trample is a derogatory term in the rice circle. refers to comparing two stars for marketing, touting one’s favorite idol by belittling one of the stars first stepping on it and then holding it, so that there is a difference between the two., shameless! The hype, sleep with fans and depend on financial backer! Sooner or later gonna paste out the eighteen lines5Raw 糊穿地心(hú chuān dì xīn); Going through the center of the earth. It’s a buzzword on internet, is a common term in the fan circle. When fans of both sides are pinching each other, they often use this entry for each other’s idols. The meaning is to describe that the once popular star has been outdated, and has completely lost its previous popularity. Also known as paste to the center of the earth, paste out the eighteen lines.!”
Shen Ran: ……
This was the true portrayal of the pair of idols.
Shen Ran asked, “Then you will pick me up tomorrow?”
Ruan Letian replied with an ok expression, and the two ended the conversation.
The car stopped, Shen Ran and Min Xingchuan got out of the car one after the other, the driver parked the car, and the Old Butler came over and handed Shen Ran and Min Xingchuan a glass of honey water each.
He carefully observed the atmosphere between the two, and it seemed that everything was normal, and there should be no quarrel.
The Old Butler breathed a sigh of relief, took the cups they had finished drinking, told them to rest early, and went back to the room himself.
At this time, Shen Ran finally thought of what he had to do. Didn’t he agreed to kiss Min Xingchuan forcefully and brush the personality fit to over 90%?
How come he met Cheng Yu, then forgot about the real business, and even worked as a laborer for him all night for free.
Inappropriate, really inappropriate.
So his eyes began to swirl around again, and he wondered how to push Min Xingchuan to the wall and kabedon-ing him.
Yet seeing Min Xingchuan going upstairs without looking back, Shen Ran took two steps to keep up, and slipped in together before Min Xingchuan closed the door.
Min Xingchuan frowned and asked, “What’s the matter?”
Shen Ran scratched his head embarrassedly, and said, “There is indeed something.”
Min Xingchuan thought about it and felt that he didn’t cause him any trouble today, so he nodded and said, “Speak.”
Shen Ran cleared his throat and asked, “Brother, is your elementary school classmate…a piano artist?”
Because Shen Ran wanted to figure out something, that’s why he asked this question.
Min Xingchuan didn’t deny it, he nodded and said, “Is there any problem?”
Shen Ran rolled his eyes inwardly, if it wasn’t for your good looks, and that stupid personality fit! Laozi really don’t want to talk nonsense with you anymore!
At this moment, Min Xingchuan was standing with his hands behind his back, so Shen Ran immediately seized the opportunity, and when Min Xingchuan was stunned, he kissed him madly, and even deliberately took a bite. After biting, he puffed: “I don’t like you together with him! I’m angry! Do you think I’ve become obedient and sensible? No! I still feel pain when I see you with others! Painful to die!”
Shen Ran’s action was as fierce as a tiger, but before Min Xingchuan could react, he turned around and fled back to the room.
Well, it was timid Shen has become terrified6Raw 是申怂怂本怂了(Shì shēn sǒng sǒng běn sǒngle); not really sure how to phrase this, so we got as it is *cry laugh*.

Author has something to say:
Timid Shen: Shivering from fear
Min Xingchuan: Ha, you have the ability to kiss, don’t run away if you have the ability!
