After she took a nap at the apartment and went back, she arrived just in time for dinner at home.
By then, Shen Jingchuan had arrived, and Shen Jingxiu had also returned home. The family of five sat together and had a sumptuous dinner.
After dinner, Shen Jingchuan suggested playing billiards, and he also warmly invited Wen Yan to join in.
Without even thinking, Wen Yan immediately refused: "You fight with my older brother, I don't know how."
Shen Jingchuan refused to let her leave: "It's okay if you don't know how, I can teach you. It's very simple, I believe you'll be able to learn it quickly with your intelligence."
"Hehe," Wen Yan started to mock herself, "You have way too much confidence in me. I also believe that my IQ is fine, but my body language might not be very cooperative. You don't want to drive yourself crazy while you're teaching, do you?"
"Is that so?" Shen Jingchuan raised an eyebrow. "I don't believe you unless you prove it to me."
Wen Yan rolled her eyes at him: "Trying to provoke me, huh? It won't work on me. I'm exhausted from filming these past two days, my back and waist are killing me, I don't want to stand for another minute. But I don't think I've ever seen you guys play basketball before, I can cheer you on from the sidelines! Let's go!"
“Wait a minute,” Shen Jingchuan said without moving, “What movie have you been filming lately? Why are you making yourself so tired?”
"A period drama about palace intrigue just had an outdoor shoot today."
Shen Jingchuan nodded: "Then you shouldn't need to use wires for this kind of scene, right? Isn't it dangerous?"
Wen Yan only reported good news and not bad: "The palace drama didn't involve wire work, so things are going quite smoothly so far."
"That's good. Let's go then, to the basement."
Wen Yan nodded, then turned to Su Yang and asked, "Mom, we can never have too many viewers, why don't you come with us?"
Su Yang first glanced at Shen Jingchuan, then looked at Shen Yuan beside her. She was constantly thinking about repairing the relationship between the father and son.
"Your dad is pretty good at ball games too. Why don't the three of you play a couple of rounds together? It'll be more fun with more people."
Shen Jingxiu understood his mother's intentions and cooperated tacitly.
"Okay, I haven't played a three-player game in a long time. Jingchuan, how about you?"
"Go ahead and play, I'm your little fangirl, brother!" Wen Yan clenched her fist to cheer Shen Jingchuan on, showing her wholehearted support.
A fangirl, huh? We have to beat her up!!
Shen Jingchuan glanced quickly at Shen Yuan, pretending to be indifferent: "Whatever, I'm fine with whatever you say."
The group of five soon arrived at the billiards room on the basement floor, where Aunt Zhang then brought over snacks and drinks.
To liven up the atmosphere, Wen Yan set up a game rule.
That is, the ultimate winner can ask the loser to do something, and the loser cannot refuse.
The rules of the game were very simple, and all three—father and sons—agreed.
Wen Yan didn't see any obvious changes in the expressions of the other two people, but Shen Jingchuan's competitive spirit was clearly aroused.
After selecting his cue, Shen Jingchuan walked straight to Wen Yan's side, looking confident with a triumphant smile on his lips.
"Why don't you place a bet? You bet on me, and if I win, I'll let you exercise my rights. How about that? Make them grant you one request unconditionally. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."
Wen Yan smiled and looked at Shen Jingchuan: "Are you that confident?"
Shen Jingchuan raised an eyebrow, exuding confidence and irresistible charm: "Otherwise what? What do you think I was doing while they were studying hard and working overtime for the company?"
"Tch," Wen Yan was about to burst out laughing at Shen Jingchuan's conspicuous act, "You still have the nerve to say that."
"I don't care, anyway, someone just said she's my fangirl."
"Alright, I'll bet on you then. You can't let me down!"
"What about Mom? There can only be one winner, who are you betting on?"
"What should we use as a prize?" Su Yang had not yet made a choice.
Wen Yan thought for a moment and said, "Then let's get straight to the point and gamble, ten thousand yuan will do!"
"Ten thousand yuan? That's all!" Shen Jingchuan exploded. "Who do you think you are, Wen Yan! What are you afraid of? I will definitely not lose! Add more!"
"...No need, it's just a small prize, mainly to liven up the atmosphere."
"Add it! What, you're worried Mom can't come up with hundreds of thousands or millions?"
"Hundreds of thousands or millions? Are you talking big? Did you eat garlic?"
"You're too scared? Or do you not believe me?? Increase it! Increase it to one million! I told you I definitely wouldn't lose, so don't make me say it a third time!"
Wen Yan gritted her teeth: "Fine, then raise it to one million. If you lose tonight, you're dead!"
"Ha, how could that be!" With that, Shen Jingchuan put down his golf club and gently placed Wen Yan on the sofa next to him.
"Here you go! Snacks, juice, take them! Just keep your eyes peeled and watch how I slay the whole place."
"Too arrogant and conceited," Wen Yan suddenly felt a bad premonition.
At this moment, Su Yang also made a choice: "I'll bet on your father."
Shen Jingchuan: "Mom, you'll regret this."
Su Yang chuckled: "Seeing how much you've done for Yan Yan, if I chose you like she did, how would we calculate this million?"
Shen Jingxiu: "…………" So no one is pressuring me. This ball doesn't seem like it's absolutely necessary to play.
So, in the first game, Shen Jingxiu dominated the pool table.
Even Wen Yan, a complete novice, couldn't help but applaud him: "Amazing, bro! So cool!"
