Chapter 223



But no matter what, Shen Jingxiu didn't want to see Wen Yan in a difficult position.

He continued, "Actually, you can pretend this never happened. No one needs you to make a choice. You don't need to give anyone an answer today or in the future. You're still you, still the carefree Wen Yan you always were. I'll take you home first, and then..."

However, before Shen Jingxiu could finish his last sentence, he was interrupted by a cell phone ringing.

It was Wen Yan calling.

"Waaah," Wen Yan said with a bitter face, "It's probably impossible to pretend nothing happened. My second brother called me. He was filming in the mountains before, so he probably has a signal now and saw my news online. I'll take this call first."

"Okay, go ahead and answer it."

Wen Yan quickly pressed the answer button: "Hello, dear second brother, it feels like we haven't seen each other for ages. How have you been lately?"

Shen Jinghe on the other end of the phone: "...Looks like you're doing pretty well."

"That's right, he can eat, drink, and sleep well, and he's full of energy."

"Then you must know why I'm calling, right?"

"Yes, I can guess with my toes."

"Your mouth is getting more and more talkative. Have you been corrupted by Shen Jingchuan?"

"Then how about I learn from you, learn your sharp tongue?"

"I don't think you need to. You should be able to learn it on your own."

After joking around for a long time, Wen Yan still didn't want to tell Shen Jinghe about her messy online affairs.

Because it's a little annoying.

At times like these, Wen Yan felt that having too many family members wasn't good, because with more people, a certain matter would always have to be discussed over and over again.

All I can say is that she was very fortunate that Shen Jingxiu and Shen Jingchuan appeared at the same time.

However, Shen Jinghe specifically called about this matter, so there's no way to escape it.

About half an hour later, Wen Yan finally explained the whole story.

But after she hung up the phone, she suddenly realized that Shen Jingchuan was gone.

For a moment, she thought she had traveled through time, but Shen Jingxiu was still in the driver's seat.

"Oh no, big brother, fourth brother is gone! He's vanished into thin air!"

No sooner had Wen Yan finished speaking than Shen Jingchuan poked his head out from the passenger seat.

He looked speechless: "Where did I disappear to? You were way too engrossed in your phone call with the second brother. Is this how you usually act when you talk to me? Didn't you notice I moved to the passenger seat?"

Wen Yan looked completely bewildered: "When did you change it? How come I didn't know when you parked the car?"

"The car didn't stop."

"?????? So you climbed over there?"

"Can we not use the word 'climb'?"

"Then what verb should I use? How can you be so funny? You're so tall and your legs are so long, wouldn't it be difficult for you to climb over?"

"…………That doesn’t matter anymore, I’ll just take it as you complimenting my long legs."

"Really? If it's not important, could you climb it again for me?"

"Wen Yan!! Why don't you ask to see how handsome I am? I came to the front row specifically to discuss something with my older brother, understand?"

"Okay, so what did you two discuss? I'm genuinely curious."

"What else could it be? It's nothing more than..."

Before Shen Jingchuan could finish speaking, Wen Yan's phone rang again.

Before Wen Yan could speak, Shen Jingchuan asked, "Who called to check on you this time?"

Wen Yan glanced at her phone screen, and it was true.

"It's Wanwan."

"Jiang Wanwan? How come she went to film in some remote mountain village before?"

"No, she went abroad to film."

"I see. Then you should answer the phone quickly."

Wen Yan nodded and answered the phone.

Jiang Wanwan skipped the pleasantries and went straight to the point: "Wen Yan, I was just looking at the entertainment news in China. Are all the rumors about you online these days true? I saw some clips of your live stream; were those real and not scripted?"

“Sigh,” Wen Yan sighed, “It’s absolutely true.”

"So that paternity test report is real, and you're going to find your biological father?"

"Hey, well, I've actually found it, but I haven't announced it to anyone yet. But it's okay to tell you. When are you coming back to China? We can talk about it in detail when you get back. This topic is really too much to discuss in a short time. I just talked to my second brother for more than half an hour, and my throat is almost hoarse."

As soon as Wen Yan finished speaking, a long, slender hand handed her a bottle of mineral water.

"Water," Shen Jingxiu said. "I forgot to give it to you when I got in the car."

"Thank you, brother!"

Jiang Wanwan waited until Wen Yan finished speaking before speaking again on the other end of the phone.

"I'll be back soon, probably in a few days. I'll make an appointment with you then. By the way, are you with your older brother right now? I think I heard his voice just now."

"That's right, and so is my fourth brother. We're on our way home now."

"So, did the two of them help you handle this matter?"

“No, not before. They both just came back from abroad today. Like you, they just saw the news online not long ago.”

"I see. So, what's said online—that the Fu family is behind all this? Is that true?"

"I think so. After the agent from Fu's Group had his face exposed in front of the appraisal agency, netizens started boycotting Fu's Group. If they hadn't done this, they would definitely have chosen to confront them and clarify. But they fired the agent immediately and did some emergency public relations, which is tantamount to admitting it. However, I haven't received their apology yet, but I don't have the mind to care about them right now."
