Wen Shuangnian nodded, his eyes full of loss.
Jiang Xiaoxiao held her hand and said, "It's not that you don't know her well enough, but she is very good at disguising herself."
"She would prepare a thick mask for herself and habitually hide her true thoughts. If I didn't have similar thoughts to hers, I might not be able to detect it."
"And in the face of the situation just now, we should ruthlessly tear off her mask and expose her true thoughts."
"Isn't she blaming herself? Let's let her know that we are blaming her, and wait for her to put her emotions out in the open, and then we can resolve the emotions."
"It's about getting her to admit that she's sad, instead of pretending that she doesn't care when she actually cares a lot."
"To deal with a stubborn person, just go along with her, wait until she lets her guard down and then strike directly at her soft belly."
Wen Shuangnian seemed to understand something. "So she used the same trick on you?"
"Well, of course I have to pay her back for the tricks she taught me."
After knowing what to do, Wen Shuangnian finally understood why the two of them standing side by side under the lights on the school anniversary stage were so dazzling.
Because that was the most beautiful moment when they supported each other and faced difficulties together.
That moment has been deeply imprinted in Wen Shuangnian's heart. In fact, she also hopes that one day she can be as brave as them.
However, Shen Mingzhu came back soon, followed by several policemen.
"What's going on?"
Shen Mingzhu drooped her face. "I originally wanted to dig in the ruins to see if I could find our things, but they knew we ran away from that B&B and insisted that we go to the hospital for a full-body check-up."
The police stared at the three girls with a serious face, "This is not a joke. You three were the only people in the guesthouse during the earthquake. We have to make sure you are all okay before you can leave."
"Ah!" Shen Mingzhu was still thinking about continuing their planned itinerary after dawn.
"If I go to the hospital for a checkup, I probably won't have the motivation to go out and play!"
Wen Shuangnian reached out and smoothed Shen Mingzhu's frown. "It's okay. Let's go get checked first. We're here to relax anyway. We can have fun wherever we go."
"But there's no such thing as playing in a hospital!" Shen Mingzhu grumbled in dissatisfaction.
"I've remembered that next time you have to compensate us with a perfect vacation!" Jiang Xiaoxiao crossed her arms over her chest. Her tone was not gentle, but it instantly refreshed the depressed Shen Mingzhu.
"Okay, I will definitely double compensate you!"
Wen Shuangnian observed the changes in Shen Mingzhu and suddenly found that nothing she said seemed to comfort Shen Mingzhu. She felt like a failure.
Jiang Xiaoxiao patted her on the shoulder and said, "You did a great job. We worked well together. One of us played the good cop and the other played the bad cop. We attacked from both sides and caught Mingzhu off guard!"
Shen Mingzhu followed the police for a few steps and turned back to find that the two were still whispering.
So she turned back and asked, "What did you do behind my back?"
Wen Shuangnian and Jiang Xiaoxiao smiled at her at the same time, "Secret!"
Shen Mingzhu glanced away and said, "You have changed. You are no longer my good babies!"
The two men smiled at each other, then sandwiched Shen Mingzhu in the middle, one on the left and one on the right.
"Then tell me which one is your favorite baby?"
Shen Mingzhu immediately left them behind and trotted forward a few steps, "What did you say? The wind is a bit strong here!"
Several policemen watched the interaction between the three and couldn't help but chuckle, "It's great to be young and energetic!"
This little episode inadvertently brought the three people closer together.
However, when they checked at the hospital, they found that more than one homestay had collapsed in the earthquake.
There is another B&B 500 meters away.
However, there was only one person living in that homestay, so that person was also taken to the hospital here for examination by the police.
Different from the relaxed atmosphere among the three here, the unlucky guy, dressed in a dusty white coat and with a grim face, was sitting in the corridor waiting for inspection.
Shen Mingzhu glanced at the other party unintentionally, then quickly pulled Wen Shuangnian and Jiang Xiaoxiao in the opposite direction.
"What's wrong?" Wen Shuangnian looked at her in confusion.
"Yes, you may have gone the wrong way. The last inspection is over there."
Shen Mingzhu hid behind Wen Shuangnian stealthily, "Well, it's nothing serious anyway, let's go back to sleep, okay?"
What's even funnier is that Shen Mingzhu is three centimeters taller than Wen Shuangnian, but in order to hide from the unlucky guy over there, she buried her head in Wen Shuangnian's neck.
This timid look is like a mouse seeing a cat.
Jiang Xiaoxiao was amused by the scene, "Mingzhu, what are you doing? Shuangnian doesn't even dare to move."
The corridor was extremely quiet, so even though Jiang Xiaoxiao's voice was not very loud, it was enough to be noticed by another man waiting in the corridor.
Shen Mingzhu hurriedly covered Jiang Xiaoxiao's mouth, but it was too late. The man over there had already turned his head to look over here.
There was no expression on his face, and even his tone of voice was flat. His eyes were fixed on Shen Mingzhu who was hiding behind the other two girls for a moment. "Shen Mingzhu?"
Shen Mingzhu covered her face, "It's over, why did I have to meet him?"
When Wen Shuangnian heard this, she turned around subconsciously, and then she was stunned.
"Is that Chen Zeshuo?" Wen Shuangnian looked at the other person's face. Although his face was covered with dust, it was still that face. However, the feeling he gave her was completely different from Chen Zeshuo that night.
The man heard Shen Mingzhu's inner voice and curled his lips slightly, "Shen Mingzhu, it's been a while since we last met, and you don't even call me second brother anymore?"
Shen Mingzhu knew she couldn't escape, so she could only accept her fate and walk away.
"What a coincidence, my second brother is here too."
"Second brother?" Wen Shuangnian remembered that Chen Zeshuo was her third brother.
Shen Zeqing looked at the two girls following Shen Mingzhu, and finally his gaze stayed on Wen Shuangnian's face for a second before moving away.
He didn't know if it was his illusion, but even though Wen Shuangnian's face was obscured by thick bangs and black-framed glasses and his facial features were not very clear, he still felt familiar.
But the person he needs to pay more attention to now is Shen Mingzhu.
He gets a headache whenever he thinks of his sister.
The chatterbox Shen Zeshuo complained to him whenever he had nothing to do, saying how Shen Mingzhu bullied Shen Yuan.
As a result, whenever he sees Shen Mingzhu now, he always thinks of what Shen Zeshuo said, which is why he has a little more resistance to Shen Mingzhu.
"Chen Zeshuo said you ran away from home, so you came here?"
When Shen Mingzhu heard the three words "Shen Zeshuo", she felt like she had eaten dynamite.
"Heh, that bastard told you that? What do you mean by running away from home? He and my eldest brother teamed up to drive me out of the Shen family!"
Shen Zeqing frowned. Shen Zeshuo was indeed a talkative and unreliable guy. Only half of what he said could be believed.
"Brother? How is that possible? Did you misunderstand?"
"Oh my god, I almost forgot that Shen Zeqing adores Big Brother the most. In his eyes, even Big Brother's farts smell good!"
