Gu Jisui had prepared everything for me? But why didn't he tell me?
"Okay, I understand. Thank you."
Xie Chenyuan returned to the room. Since the drinks were ready, what else needed to be prepared?
By the way, the pastries are not ready yet. While it is still early, Chen Yuan changed her clothes and prepared to go out to prepare the pastries for the tea party.
As soon as she went downstairs, she ran into Qin Mingyan and Xu Wenlou.
Qin Mingyan looked Shen Yuan up and down, "You're dressed up so extravagantly, where are you going?"
Hearing the voice, Chen Yuan looked down at her own attire. Is this what is called being flashy?
Forget it. In their eyes, whatever I do is wrong anyway, so why bother about it?
"I'm going out to prepare cakes for the tea party."
Hearing this, Xu Wenlou was stunned and said, "I want to go too!"
What was she going to do? To make things difficult for herself or to cause trouble?
"It's just to select products. I can go alone. I won't need you anyway."
She didn't want to go with Xu Wenlou. Shen Yuan would only feel annoyed if she stayed with her.
Besides, she couldn't help much even if she went.
Upon hearing this, Xu Wenlou became unhappy. Why not let her go? It’s not your tea party!
"Aunt, look at her. She's not happy about me helping her."
Xu Wenlou pulled Qin Mingyan's arm and acted coquettishly, and coaxed her around with just a few words.
Qin Mingyan stared at Shen Yuan and adopted the attitude of an elder.
"Let Wen Lou go with you, otherwise you don't have to go. Besides, Wen Lou is here to help. If you don't let her go, I'm afraid you want to take all the credit for yourself, right?"
Look, no matter what comes out of their mouths, it will definitely be distorted.
I just went to pick out some pastries, what's the point? Isn't this a big deal?
Chen Yuan was stunned for a moment, but still agreed. She didn't want to waste time with them here.
"Okay, get ready and come with me."
Upon hearing this, Xu Wenlou went upstairs proudly to change his clothes. Chen Yuan waited downstairs for nearly half an hour before she slowly came downstairs.
Looking at Xu Wenlou's attire, Shen Yuan sneered. This is what they call dressing up to be flashy, right?
With heavy makeup, big waves, a miniskirt, and a tube top, if you don’t know her, you would think she is going to a nightclub!
The car soon stopped in front of the pastry shop, and Xu Wenlou walked in first in high heels.
In the end, Shen Yuan paid for the fare out of his own pocket.
She looked so arrogant as if she was shopping in a luxury store. Not to mention the clerk, even Shen Yuan felt that she was a bit pretentious.
Chen Yuan ignored her and didn't expect her to help anyway.
She was picking out the pastries on her own, and when she had almost finished choosing, Xu Wenlou came over to check with an arrogant look, as if he was there to supervise Shen Yuan.
"Why do you keep buying useless things?"
Chen Yuan paused, "If food is useless, then you can choose to starve yourself to death."
She responded bluntly, and Xu Wenlou was very angry.
"Don't blame me for not reminding you, grandma and aunt both like to eat osmanthus cake and water chestnut cake."
Chen Yuan was stunned for a moment, then pursed her lips, "Really? Then I won't buy it."
After saying that, she picked up the reservation form and turned to leave, leaving Xu Wenlou behind with his teeth bared and his claws clenched.
She is not a fool. How could Xu Wenlou be so kind as to tell her grandmother and Qin Mingyan what they like to eat?
When things are abnormal, there must be something wrong; when people are abnormal, there must be a knife!
She still understands this principle.
After a while, the two of them sat in the car that Chen Yuan called, ready to return to Gu's house.
But halfway, while waiting for the red light, Shen Yuan noticed that several men with sticks were chasing another man across the street.
Shen Yuan looked over and found that the man being chased was actually Qi Xiu!
"Master, stop the car!"
Chen Yuan stopped the driver and prepared to get out to save Qi Xiu. She couldn't just stand by and watch him die, especially since he not only saved her but also knew about her parents.
"Are you sick?"
Xu Wenlou was annoyed by the sudden brake and took his anger out on Chen Yuan.
But Shen Yuan has no time to deal with her now
"You go back first, I have something to take care of."
After saying that, she hurriedly got out of the car and closed the door. She waited until the car drove away before running to the opposite side.
At this time, Qi Xiu had been cornered, and Shen Yuan was groping in his bag.
After the trauma of that night, she carried pepper spray in her bag, and she didn't expect it to come in handy today.
Shen Yuan stood in front of Qi Xiu, helped him up, and put one in each hand into the bag.
Seeing this, several men were about to pull Shen Yuan away, but unexpectedly they were blinded by her spray.
Chen Yuan took the opportunity to pull Qi Xiu and ran away. When everyone reacted, the two had already got into a taxi.
Shen Yuan breathed a sigh of relief after confirming through the window that they had not caught up, but he didn't know that there was a car following them.
"Master, follow the car in front."
After Chen Yuan got off the car, Xu Wenlou felt something was wrong, so he kept observing her secretly, but he didn't expect that she actually ran to save a man.
"Are you hurt?"
Shen Yuan noticed that Qi Xiu looked pale, and after checking, she discovered that he had been stabbed in the abdomen.
Qi Xiu no longer had the energy to answer her question, and Chen Yuan called out to the driver in horror.
"Master, go to the hospital! Hurry!"
Seeing that the man in the back seat was dying, the driver was afraid that he would die in his car, so he ran through several red lights and stopped in front of the hospital in just a few minutes.
Chen Yuan struggled to help Qi Xiu get out of the car. She was so eager to save people that she didn't notice that Xu Wenlou was taking pictures of them with his mobile phone in the black car in the distance.
