At this moment, the atmosphere in the living room of the banquet house was particularly solemn, or rather, silent.
After Yan's mother said that she suspected Shen Fangli could also hear Yan Xianjue's thoughts, no one at the scene spoke.
Yan Ci was the only one who wanted to speak. He looked at his eldest sister, second sister and eldest brother and saw that they didn't say anything. Then he closed his half-open mouth as quietly as a chicken.
That’s right, Yan Shan is also here.
After she finished her investigation into the spy matter at the institute, she reapplied for her annual leave which had been unexpectedly interrupted.
Then I heard such explosive news as soon as I got home.
Yan Shan rubbed her fingertips and felt that the name sounded familiar.
As if she couldn't read the atmosphere, she asked directly, "Who is Shen Fangli?"
Yan Wan: “…”
Others in the Yan family: "..."
Although the Yan family members were a little helpless, this sentence obviously became the beginning of breaking the ice.
Yan Wan hesitated and said, "I remember I told you on the phone that she was Xianjue's girlfriend."
Yan Shan said 'Oh' and said, "Then why not just let them break up?"
"No." Yan Wan refused.
She didn't know how to explain the topics of love and breakups to her sister, but she obviously had other ideas.
"She can hear Xianjue's inner voice, but it's not necessarily because of this."
Yan Yian agreed with this.
Ever since his mother finished her guess, Yan Yian has been recalling the several times he met Shen Fangli.
Then the more he recalled, the more he felt something was wrong.
If we go back to the first time we met...
He asked his parents a little uncertainly: "At the private restaurant, was it after Xianjue mentioned his birth date that Shen Fangli rushed over to grab the bag?"
He didn't understand why he had overlooked such details.
After thinking about it, he could only blame it on the fact that his scientific worldview did not allow him to be suspicious of others and suspect that they could hear Yan Xianjue's inner thoughts when he saw them.
Yan's father and mother looked at each other and shook their heads. It happened several months ago and they couldn't remember such details.
They looked at Yan Ci.
Yan Ci had a good memory. He recalled what Yan Yian had said and said, "It seems to be true."
Yan Ci suddenly thought, if Shen Fangli could hear Yan Xianjue's thoughts from the beginning.
What about his dark history...
Yan Ci's vision suddenly went dark.
"Actually, it's not that important when she started to hear," Yan's father said. "The key is, if she really can hear, how can we protect Xianjue from getting hurt?"
Yan Ci raised a point: "So, is she dating Yan Xianjue because she likes him? Or is she simply trying to get something from him?"
What Yan Ci said was not impossible, he even gave a few examples himself.
"I was able to intercept Lin Lang's investment, and Big Brother was able to give the Tiankeng project to Lin Lang. Isn't this all thanks to Yan Xianjue's spoiler?"
"Especially since she wants to enter the entertainment industry, aren't those hit dramas and movies that Yan Xianjue occasionally mentions all the benefits she can reap?"
The whole family looked at Yan Ci in surprise: "When you've been away for three days, you should look at you with new eyes. Yan Ci, you've grown your brain."
Yan Ci knew without even looking that these words were definitely spoken by the eldest sister.
He rolled his eyes silently. He wasn't stupid! He just hadn't been interested in these things before!
It doesn't mean that he knows that his family may face crises in the future, and he doesn't use his brain.
Yan Wan didn't get an answer, but didn't get annoyed. She just smiled and said, "We can't control whether she can hear Xianjue's thoughts."
This statement was unanimously agreed by everyone.
Then they heard Yan Wan continue, "But we can control her as a person."
Yan Ci suddenly felt a chill on his back.
Father Yan said sternly, "Yan Wan, do you know what you are saying?"
Yan Wan nodded: "Of course I know."
"Yan Wan." Yan's mother called her name warningly.
Yan Wan smiled sweetly: "Mom, I'm not talking about any illegal means."
"But there are many ways to control a person."
"In addition to coercion, there are also inducements."
This sentence coincided with Yan Yian's. Yan Yian nodded, indicating that he thought it was feasible and he was planning to put it into practice.
"I will gradually increase my cooperation with the Shen family."
Until the Shen family could no longer leave the Yan family.
It would be good if everything remained peaceful, but he also didn't want Yan Xianjue to be betrayed in his first relationship.
But if the Shen family wants to jump out of the car midway, he will let the Shen family know what it means to be killed in a car accident.
Looking at these children, each one more opinionated than the last, Mr. Yan suddenly began to question his own educational methods.
If he remembered correctly, he and his wife were both serious businessmen, right?!
He looked at his wife for help. The old father was helpless with these children.
Mother Yan thought for a moment and said, "You all assume the worst, but I don't think she's that kind of child."
"Xianjue would be sad to know that you are so wary of his girlfriend."
Mother Yan knew that Shen Fangli was just a stranger to them.
If one of the two people must be hurt, everyone will choose Shen Fangli without hesitation.
But this is unfair, and Xianjue will not be happy.
She thought for a moment and said, "If we want the Shen family to be bound to us, why not get them engaged first?"
"No." Following the voice, to everyone's surprise, the person who spoke out in opposition this time was Yan Ci.
Mother Yan frowned: "Why?"
Yan Ci pursed his lips and did not answer directly.
But talk about childhood.
"Do you still remember when Yan Xianjue was asked by his grandfather to be sent to a nursing home for a period of time?"
"You were worried that he would be bored, so you sent me along."
Yan's mother nodded, having sought Yan Ci's consent at the time.
Yan Ci: "Then you also remember, right? Yan Xianjue had a little notebook at the time that he wouldn't let anyone see."
The whole family nodded again. They had consulted a psychologist at the time, and the doctor said that Yan Xianjue was just relieving his emotions in his own way and there was nothing wrong.
Although they didn't know how a child who couldn't even write a single word could relieve the stress, they certainly hadn't looked through it.
Yan Ci: "I've seen it."
Yan family: "..."
Well, there's a traitor among them.
Yan Ci's voice sank slightly. "What he drew on the notebook was his level of favorability towards each person."
"What?" Several people made the same sound at the same time.
Yan Ci: "You heard correctly, he used the notebook to rank everyone he met according to their closeness or distance."
“This includes doctors and staff who are not limited to nursing homes.”
Yan Yian: "So what do you want to express?"
Yan Ci didn't beat around the bush and stated his own judgment: "I think that although Yan Xianjue no longer has the little notebook that ranks everyone's intimacy level, he still has such a notebook in his heart."
