After a Failed Blind Date, a Rich Woman Tries to Get Into My Heart - Chapter 15

The two sisters were easy to identify.

Younger sister Shen Nannan had a clean and bright high ponytail, her face adorned with a radiant, sweet smile as she enthusiastically chatted with her older sister. Elder sister Shen Linlin sported a sharp short haircut, her smile haughty and disdainful, frequently accompanied by dismissive hand gestures.

Both sisters were very attractive and extremely popular at their high school—especially Shen Nannan, whose sweet smile and kind, enthusiastic personality often caught the attention of male classmates.

Shen Lang’s friends often joked that he must have been picked up from the street by his parents. Both sisters were so beautiful, yet their brother didn’t even measure up to a third of their looks!

In reality, Shen Lang wasn’t unattractive. He simply kept a low profile and maintained a somber demeanor. During high school, he would sit quietly in a corner with his phone, reading novels. Years of late nights and a lack of self-care after graduation had further diminished his appearance and spirit.

As Shen Lang approached the gate, Shen Nannan’s face lit up with a cheerful smile. She was about to greet him when her smile froze, and Shen Linlin stared at him in astonishment—as if she were seeing an alien.

Shen Lang raised his eyebrows at the sisters with interest. “What’s the matter? Don’t you recognize your brother?”

The atmosphere grew quiet as the sisters exchanged glances. Then, the ever-candid Shen Linlin blurted out, “Who the heck are you?”

“I’m your brother!” Shen Lang replied, annoyed. “It’s only been a month, and you don’t recognize me?”

Shen Linlin scanned the handsome, sunlit figure from head to toe, incredulous. “Are you Shen Lang?”

She couldn’t believe that this sunny, handsome guy was her gaming-obsessed, homebody brother. Before the start of the school term, Shen Lang had posted on social media about his plans to start exercising and becoming more disciplined, and Shen Linlin had mocked him for his likely inconsistency.

Who would have thought that within a month, this couch-potato brother would actually transform so drastically—a complete makeover?

Shen Nannan eagerly reached out and touched Shen Lang’s firm abs, lifting his shirt to reveal his well-defined muscles. “Wow, sis, look! Brother has abs!”

Seeing the toned, wheat-colored eight-pack, Shen Linlin’s heart skipped a beat, though she maintained a dismissive tone. “Pfft, he must be using some protein powder. What’s the big deal?”

“Stop being silly,” Shen Lang said, gently pushing Nannan’s cheek to get her off him while straightening his shirt. “So, why did you come looking for me?”

“We had nothing to do after school, so we came to see you,” Nannan replied, hugging Shen Lang’s arm and pouting. “Brother, which building do you live in? Take us to see it.”

Sighing, Shen Lang led the sisters into the residential area and brought them to his modest single apartment.

Nannan curiously looked around the room, then took out her phone to record a video for their mom. In surprise, she asked, “Brother, you live here? How much is the rent?”

“One thousand a month,” Shen Lang replied, tossing his keys onto the table.

Nannan nodded, thinking the price was reasonable.

“It’s a mess, like a dog’s nest,” Linlin commented disdainfully before collapsing on Shen Lang’s bed and lazily browsing TikTok.

Nannan also sat on the edge of the bed, gazing at Shen Lang with a silly smile as her slender legs swung happily.

The room fell silent except for the sound of Linlin’s TikTok. Then, a playful remark from the video echoed, “Look closely, this man is called Little Muscle…”

“Alright, alright, stop bothering me,” Shen Lang said, already feeling annoyed after just a few minutes. “I’ll book a hotel nearby for you two to stay at.”

Nannan blinked and asked, “Brother, did you get your manuscript fee?”

“Yeah, I made some money this month…”

The moment the words left his mouth, Shen Lang regretted it.

Nannan immediately clung to him, hugging his waist and pouting. “Brother, I saw a dress I really like, but I’m short on funds. Mom and Dad’s allowance hasn’t come through yet. You don’t want your sister to wear her school uniform all the time, right? Just five hundred—I only need five hundred. Once I graduate and start working, I’ll pay you back.”

“Alright, alright, if I wait for you to have money, I’ll starve to death,” Shen Lang said, gently pushing Nannan’s head away while taking out his phone to transfer two thousand yuan to her.

Shen Lang had made a hefty fifty thousand yuan from Xia Shuyi alone, so two thousand was nothing to him. Besides, she was his sister. If he weren’t worried about revealing his newfound wealth, he might have given even more.

“Wow, two thousand!” Nannan exclaimed, her eyes sparkling. “Brother, did a wealthy patron reward you? You’re so generous!”

“What? Two thousand?” Linlin, who had been lying on the bed, immediately sprang up. “I want some too. Old Fool, give me two thousand!”

Shen Lang crossed his arms and smirked. “Sure, call me brother, and I’ll transfer it.”

He couldn’t remember the last time this brat had called him “brother.” She was always making snide remarks and acting bratty—and now that he had the chance, Shen Lang intended to teach her a lesson.

Linlin hesitated, her face flushing slightly, before picking up a pillow and throwing it at him. “Go to hell, Old Fool!”

Shen Lang shrugged nonchalantly. “No call, no money. Get up, I’m going out to eat.”

Unexpectedly, Linlin pounced on him like an octopus, trying to snatch his phone so she could transfer the money herself.

Despite being a girl, Linlin was strong—stronger than many boys her age. In the past, she often overpowered Shen Lang by grabbing his phone and transferring money. But now, Shen Lang was different. He easily lifted her by the waist and tossed her onto the bed, nearly knocking her to the floor.

“Heh, you thought I’ve been idle lately?” Shen Lang said triumphantly, looking at the stunned Linlin. “Today is not like yesterday, little brat!”

To his surprise, Linlin began to throw a tantrum on the bed, crying and shouting, “Waaah, I’ll tell Dad you hit me!”

Seeing her act like a spoiled elementary school kid, Shen Lang’s mouth twitched. “Stop whining.”

Knowing she was faking, Shen Lang helplessly transferred another two thousand yuan to her as well.

When Linlin heard the WeChat notification, her tears immediately stopped. She smirked triumphantly at Shen Lang. “Heh, got you!”

Shen Lang’s eyebrows twitched as he looked at his two drama-queen sisters. With a resigned smile, he muttered, “Having you two around must be my punishment for sins in a past life!”
