"Thanks." It was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and Shen Jinghe sincerely thanked Wen Yan.
Wen Yan chuckled: "We're all honest people, so let's not be so superficial."
Shen Jinghe didn't understand: "What do you mean?"
Wen Yan kindly unscrewed the cap of the orange juice for him.
"Talk is cheap, and you're Shen Jinghe, so how can I thank you without taking any real action? Fainting due to low blood sugar isn't a huge deal, but it's not insignificant either. Strictly speaking, I did save you. So, can you promise me one thing?"
Shen Jinghe raised an eyebrow, his pale face darkening: "Are you blackmailing me??"
Hmph, just as annoying as before.
He must have lost his mind to change his opinion of her just now.
"No! You're exaggerating! I haven't even made any demands yet, how did it become extortion?"
Shen Jinghe sneered: "Speak, how much money do you want?"
Wen Yan: "Do I look like I'm really short of money?"
Okay, it's true that you can never have too much money, but this little bit of food is only worth a few dollars, so it would be too much of a burden to extort her.
"So what do you want?" Shen Jinghe suddenly looked up at Wen Yan. "You don't mean you want me to stand on your side and help you deal with my blood-related younger sister, do you?"
Wen Yan: "…………"
What is he thinking? His thoughts are so unpredictable. Who wants to mess with Shen Zhirou? They're just asking for trouble.
Shen Jinghe narrowed his eyes.
She's actually not planning to fight Shen Zhirou anymore? Then what exactly is she planning to do?
"I didn't mean to force you to take my side, it's just that the 'Silent' production team..."
"Impossible, don't even think about it."
Upon hearing the words "film crew," Shen Jinghe immediately interrupted Wen Yan.
"..." Wen Yan, who had only said half of what she wanted to say, could only stand there speechless with her mouth agape.
Is he crazy?! Is he crazy?! I hadn't even finished speaking!
He was being insulted again?! Shen Jinghe frowned deeply: "Although I am friends with Director Zhou, I cannot use my position to give you the resources for this film."
"I don't want you to give it to me! I just want you to put aside past grievances and stop talking badly about me or causing trouble for me in front of the director! If I really want resources, I can just go to my parents. My mom knows countless big shots in the entertainment industry."
That's true; his mother does have a lot of connections.
But is this really all this insatiable woman wants?
Shen Jinghe narrowed his eyes.
Wen Yan felt a little uncomfortable under his scrutinizing gaze.
I couldn't help but think to myself, "I know you're handsome, but being handsome doesn't mean you can just stare at a lady like that without moving! Give me a like, Shen Da, the top idol, the handsome Shen Da!"
Shen Jinghe: ...If you're going to criticize him, then criticize him. Why do you have to praise his looks? How can he have the nerve to keep a straight face after that?
Shen Jinghe awkwardly withdrew his gaze and nodded.
"Fine! Anyway, we're complete strangers to outsiders, so I won't stoop to saying anything bad about you."
Wen Yan: …………
[Damn, Shen Jing, you're a notorious hypocrite! Who was it that told the director during the interview that she looked down on the industry?]
Wen Yan's thought reminded Shen Jinghe.
He glanced at Wen Yan: "Oh right, I forgot to ask you, what's gotten into you that you suddenly decided to act?"
Wen Yan was speechless... It was no exaggeration to say that he was sharp-tongued.
"He's not going crazy, he's just figured things out and wants to find something he enjoys doing, preferably something he can make a name for himself in."
"So you like acting? But didn't you look down on my profession? Didn't you despise actors?"
"What! Even if you've never argued in real life, you must have acted it out. Who would be all smiles and grovels while arguing and spewing harsh words? That would mean you're stabbing each other in the heart. What you said was just something I said in a fit of anger, don't take it seriously."
Shen Jinghe scoffed and then asked again.
"You've studied it?"
"No," Wen Yan told a little white lie, "I figured it out myself. So, how was my performance today?"
"Barely satisfactory."
Wen Yan: ...Fine, I won't expect a sharp-tongued person to say anything nice.
As they were talking, Shen Jinghe had almost finished eating.
He collected the trash and put it in a paper bag, not even looking at Wen Yan: "Alright, you gave me food, and I also promised you something. We're even now, you can leave."
Are you sure?
"nonsense."
"Where's your assistant? A big star like you doesn't bring an assistant when you go to work? Did you drive here alone?"
"You're really nosy. My assistant went back to her hometown to get married."
Shen Jinghe regretted it as soon as he finished speaking.
What's the point of explaining to her? She's so quick to speak.
He quickly tried to salvage the situation: "Just leave when I tell you to. What, do you want to come out with me and get photographed so you can ride the coattails of my fame?"
Wen Yan: "…………"
Is this person trying to provoke me? How childish!
"Okay, I'm leaving."
Even so, Wen Yan did not actually leave after she went out the door.
Because she suddenly found some memories in the original owner's memories.
Some memories of Shen Jinghe.
Shen Jinghe had a childhood experience of fainting from hunger because he was once kidnapped by criminals and locked in a tin box for two days and one night without food.
That terrible experience left him with considerable psychological trauma. After being rescued, he often had nightmares, and these nightmares would cause him psychological problems and lead him to go on a hunger strike.
Over time, his stomach developed problems, and with dietary issues came blood sugar issues. But the most terrifying thing wasn't the physical pain, but the psychological torment.
So Wen Yan didn't leave immediately; she was a little worried that something might happen to Shen Jinghe.
She hid behind the door of the emergency exit, and through the glass in the door, she could see Shen Jinghe's every move.
Shen Jinghe had already come out of the room at this moment.
He first found a trash can and threw away the trash, and then slowly walked towards the elevator.
Just as the elevator doors opened, he suddenly collapsed, his upper body inside the elevator and his lower body outside.
That's too dangerous!
Wen Yan quickly opened the safety door and rushed to Chen Jinghe's side.
She helped Shen Jinghe up, looking speechless: "Why are you showing off? Why don't I take you to the hospital?"
Seeing Wen Yan hugging him, Shen Jinghe struggled to sit up and distance himself from her.
He frowned slightly, looking a little uncomfortable: "Didn't I tell you to leave?"
Wen Yan gave in to him: "Can't I come back? Let's go to the hospital!"
"No need, I'll just go home, rest for a while, and have something to eat."
"Back to the Shen family villa?"
"Of course not, let's go back to my apartment."
"Okay, give me the car keys, I'll give them to you."
