“Yes.” Shen Jingchuan’s voice was muffled, as if he hadn’t woken up yet. “I took this contract in the first place to make money, but who knew it wouldn’t make money quickly. It’s not as good as me talking to investors outside.”
Wen Yan was somewhat skeptical: "With your fiery temper, you're good at talking? You've only been back in the country for a short time and the money's all in place?"
"What, you underestimate me? I can endure humiliation to achieve my goals. It doesn't matter if you don't invest in me, as long as you don't humiliate me."
"When are you opening? I'll come and support you."
"It's still early, we don't have enough money."
"Huh? I just asked you, didn't you say you had raised enough funds? How come you don't have enough now?"
"Did I say that?" Shen Jingchuan was confused himself. "I've had too much to drink, and I'm completely overwhelmed. I haven't even gathered everyone yet. But don't worry, I'll definitely invite you to the ribbon-cutting ceremony on my opening day, and I'll definitely give you the center position."
Wen Yan chuckled: "You don't need the center position. That's your hard work, so you can keep it for yourself. In short, I hope your career goes smoothly and prospers, and that all your efforts will not be in vain."
"Great!" Shen Jingchuan couldn't help but laugh out loud on the other end of the phone. "What you said really hit the nail on the head. Wen Yan, if my club really turns out like you said, then I'll announce to the whole world that you're my lucky charm!"
Wen Yan was genuinely surprised: "Is it really that exaggerated?"
"It's no exaggeration, this is what the gods told me."
Which deity?
"Um... I forgot. The name was very long, and it was a foreign god, so I can't remember it anymore."
"..." Wen Yan was silent for two seconds. "You believe the words of a god whose name you can't even remember?"
"Believe me, you'll never understand!" After all, he could read her mind.
"Okay, I'll hang up now, I'm driving."
"Okay, I should get up too."
The call ended quickly.
But after a short while, Wen Yan discovered that Shen Jingchuan had called again.
"What's wrong?" she answered the phone, somewhat surprised. "Why are you calling again?"
Shen Jingchuan, who was brushing his teeth on the other end of the phone, belatedly asked:
"Do you want me to go with you to participate in that wilderness survival show?"
Wen Yan was speechless: "My goodness, Mr. Shen Jingchuan, your reaction time is so slow it could circle the earth. Are you still drunk?"
"How could that be? My body metabolized that alcohol a long time ago."
"That's good," Wen Yan reminded her. "Just don't forget you're coming back for the family dinner tonight. As for the show, it's part of my career, and since I signed the contract, I'll do my best to record it. You just focus on your own career and don't worry about me."
"Hmm, I almost forgot we had a family dinner tonight if you hadn't mentioned it."
"No way! Didn't you already promise Mom that you'd come back? She's looking forward to your return."
"Haha, just kidding. Tonight's dinner party is to celebrate your discharge from the hospital, how could I forget? See you tonight."
After ending her call with Shen Jingchuan, Wen Yan drove back to her residence.
She had just arrived home when her assistant, He Xing, also arrived.
The rules of the game have changed this season of "Jungle Diary," allowing guests to bring some tools of their own, but these items must be within the scope specified by the production team, and the production team will also conduct checks when filming officially begins.
After Wen Yan and He Xing discussed and came up with a list based on the program's contract appendix, Wen Yan handed the matter over to He Xing to handle.
After dealing with this matter, she drove to a nearby flower market, bought some flowers, and brought them back to the Shen family villa.
She got back around 4 p.m.
To her surprise, Su Yang was also at home.
Moreover, the two were very in sync and both bought flowers.
It's clear that Su Yang took this family gathering very seriously; she even left work early to personally set up the restaurant.
She was also happy to see Wen Yan return with flowers: "Yan Yan is back. Did the signing go smoothly today?"
"Successfully." Wen Yan stepped forward to help. "Let me help you, Mom. If I had known you had bought flowers, I wouldn't have bought any. The ones I chose weren't as pretty as the ones you chose. And there's nowhere to put them anyway."
"Who said that? You picked a really nice one, I like it. I'll put it in my bedroom after I've set it up. Do you know how to assemble it?"
Wen Yan shook her head honestly: "No."
"It's okay if you don't know how, Mom will teach you."
One shared all their knowledge, while the other studied diligently.
Suddenly, a telephone ring broke the tranquility.
It's Su Yang's phone.
When she saw the incoming call on her phone, she even smiled and said to Wen Yan, "It's your dad calling."
But as soon as the call connected, Su Yang's expression immediately changed.
"What? How could he have been in a car accident? How is he now? Is it serious?"
"Okay, I understand. Yan Yan and I are home alone right now, I'll be right there."
After saying that, Su Yang immediately hung up the phone.
Wen Yan quickly asked her, "What happened, Mom? Who was in a car accident?"
Su Yang looked worried: "It's your older brother. He said he injured his leg and has been sent to the hospital. His driver and assistant were also seriously injured."
Wen Yan never expected this to happen!
"The eldest brother's driver and assistant were seriously injured, but what about the eldest brother?"
"They said it wasn't a big problem, but I'm still worried. I have to go to the hospital to get checked out right away."
"Then I'll go with you."
After they finished speaking, they immediately put down what they were doing.
There wasn't much traffic at this time, so Su Yang and Wen Yan arrived at the hospital half an hour later.
When they arrived, Shen Yuan was visiting the driver's family and heard that the driver was being treated in the ICU.
Shen Jingxiu's assistant, Wen Yiming, was also seriously injured and has been taken into the operating room.
Only Shen Jingxiu was relatively lucky; apart from some abrasions on his face, he only suffered a minor fracture in his shinbone.
When Su Yang and Wen Yan arrived, his injured leg had already been splinted and immobilized.
Shen Jingxiu was somewhat surprised to see the two of them arrive.
"Mom, Wen Yan, what brings you here? Did Dad notify you? I only have minor injuries."
Su Yang's eyes were filled with heartache and lingering fear: "You were just lucky. The driver and assistant in the same car were seriously injured, and the other driver who caused the accident died on the spot. How are you feeling now? Does your leg hurt?"
"A little, but bearable." Shen Jingxiu propped himself up on one leg, using the bed frame as a support. "Have the driver and Assistant Wen's family arrived?"
"They've arrived. Your father has already gone to visit them. Don't worry, we may not be able to do much else, but the Shen family will do our best to subsidize them financially and medically. You should rest and recover."
Shen Jingxiu nodded: "This is what we should do, but I still have to go and see for myself."
