"Perfect!"
Seeing that Shen Jingxiu had given up on pressing for an answer, Wen Yan finally smiled.
"Let's have a toast! May our Shen family always prosper, be wealthy and prosperous, and enjoy happiness together!"
"Okay." Shen Jingxiu didn't say much, but raised his teacup and gently clinked it with Wen Yan's.
The cup of tea was quickly emptied, and the night breeze had turned a bit cool.
Shen Jingxiu asked Wen Yan, "Besides what happened just now, is there anything else you want to ask me?"
"Hmm..." Wen Yan shook her head and swallowed the tea in her mouth. "That's all. There's only this one thing! And it's already perfectly resolved for me. The rest is up to you, brother."
Shen Jingxiu nodded: "Then let's go down, it's getting late."
"You go first, I want to be alone for a while longer."
Wen Yan suddenly realized that this terrace and the starry sky tonight were an excellent spot for taking photos.
She loves taking selfies. Today's bun hairstyle is very casual, but it looks particularly lazy. It would be a shame not to take a few photos to remember it.
Of course, she wouldn't tell Shen Jingxiu any of this.
[Yeah, I'm not going to tell him I stayed to take a selfie.]
"..." Shen Jingxiu raised his eyebrows slightly, as if he wanted to say something but stopped himself.
However, he respected every one of Wen Yan's preferences.
"Okay, I'll head down now. Oh, by the way..."
As they spoke, Shen Jingxiu picked up the overcoat he had brought and draped it over the back of the chair, then personally unfolded it and draped it over Wen Yan's shoulders.
"It's getting a bit chilly, please keep warm."
"No."
Don't reject me.
Wen Yan wanted to say that she planned to take a picture of the sweater she was wearing later, because the fitted sweater would make her shoulders look very nice.
However, adding a black coat would also look good.
"Alright then, thanks, big brother!"
"Go back and rest early."
"Okay!" Wen Yan nodded and waved goodbye to Shen Jingxiu.
As soon as Shen Jingxiu left, she took out her phone from her pants pocket and started taking beautiful photos from various angles.
Right now.
Shen Jinghe, who was eavesdropping from the shadows, was speechless.
He wondered what Wen Yan had done by staying behind alone!
It turned out it was all for a selfie.
He was completely and utterly captivated by Wen Yan.
However, this guy is indeed quite eye-catching; he has the potential to be a star just by standing there casually.
While Wen Yan was taking a selfie, Shen Jinghe quietly took out his phone as well.
He adjusted the angle and created what he considered to be an excellent image.
When he finished taking the picture, his mouth immediately drooped.
It's burnt.
This involuntarily reminded him of something Wen Yan had said.
Last time at the hospital, Wen Yan said he liked to take unflattering photos of her and screenshots of her in an unflattering way.
He had actually intended to use his real photography skills to embarrass Wen Yan, but he unexpectedly messed up.
Because of the blurriness, he captured Wen Yan as a double image, making her look like a ghost with two heads.
"Damn!" Looking at the picture on the screen, this word involuntarily escaped from Shen Jinghe's mouth.
His sudden shout completely stunned Wen Yan.
She was so frightened that she froze on the spot, too scared to move.
"!!!!who?"
With her back to Shen Jinghe's direction, Wen Yan only dared to take pictures of what was behind her with her phone camera.
“It’s me, it’s me. Don’t be afraid.” Shen Jinghe said as he quickly walked out of the darkness.
Hearing that familiar voice, Wen Yan breathed a sigh of relief, turned around, and sat down on a chair next to her.
She complained angrily to Shen Jinghe: "Why are you like a ghost? When did you come back? You didn't make a sound."
"I came up here not long ago after I learned you were here."
Shen Jinghe also pulled out a chair and sat down opposite Wen Yan.
He asked, seemingly casually, "What were you talking about with Shen Jingxiu just now?"
"…………" Wen Yan frowned, "How did you know I was with my older brother just now? By the way, why didn't the elevator make a sound when you got on? I didn't hear a thing."
Shen Jinghe raised an eyebrow and said without changing his expression, "Because I came up the stairs. I came up from the second floor, so it only takes one flight of stairs."
"oh!"
Wen Yan glanced at Shen Jinghe, thinking to herself, [It seems there's nothing I can't tell him.]
So he answered his question truthfully:
“Our Shen family has a rival family surnamed Fu, right? It just so happens that my eldest brother recently got a new assistant who also has the surname Fu. I heard that he seems to be the illegitimate son of that Fu family and that he approached my eldest brother with a purpose, so I reminded my eldest brother.”
Shen Jinghe nodded: "I see."
Actually, he had overheard all of this earlier.
However, this girl was alright; she told the truth and didn't make excuses to fool herself.
"But I'm curious who you heard this from, and whether this information is reliable?"
Here we go again!
Wen Yan had no choice but to repeat what she had just said to Shen Jingxiu to Shen Jinghe again.
Shen Jinghe, of course, did not believe it.
What channels could she possibly have? Because of her sensitive identity, she had previously made a fake best friend, Qiao Kexin.
She doesn't have any connections in the entertainment industry right now. Even when Shen Jingxiu did a background check on his assistant, Fu Shen, he couldn't find out his true identity. How could someone like her, who has no connection with the Fu family, possibly know such secrets?
“Wen Yan,” Shen Jinghe suddenly looked at her seriously, “Why don’t we have a talk? I have a secret to tell you, and it’s related to you.”
