"Yes, yes, yes!" Wen Yan replied to Shen Jingchuan perfunctorily, "You're right about everything."
Turning around, she smiled at Shen Jingxiu and said, "Thank you, big brother. You arranged everything so neatly. Compared to you, I'm just a piece of trash."
"Little trash?" Shen Jingxiu frowned. "Is this some new internet meme?"
"What? No, not really. But I'm usually pretty casual when I tidy up. Compared to your organization, the bags I handle probably look more like trash cans."
“No.” Shen Jingxiu’s brows furrowed even more. “I won’t allow you to talk about yourself like that. You are clearly a treasure.”
"..." Wen Yan was silent for two seconds, then pursed her lips and nodded, "Thank you, big brother, thank you for your praise. I'm quite happy to hear it. But I have to tell you the truth."
"you say."
"Hmm, it's a bit awkward, your lines even included the phrase 'I won't allow it,' you sound like a domineering CEO."
"Ahem," Shen Jingchuan cleared his throat, "Although... our eldest brother is a domineering CEO. As for you..."
Shen Jingchuan said seriously, "I don't like how you described yourself just now either, really, don't say things like that again."
"OK, got it! Then how about you give me a domineering CEO quote too? You're CEO Shen, after all."
Shen Jingchuan glanced at Wen Yan: "Woman, you want to know too much. That's dangerous."
"Hahahaha." Wen Yan laughed so hard, "You have the potential to be a domineering CEO. I feel like you're even more domineering than your older brother, the real domineering CEO."
Shen Jingchuan: "Woman, do you know what you're saying? How dare you compare me to other men? Do you have a death wish? It seems you don't want your brother's medical expenses anymore."
"Wow!" Wen Yan was about to die laughing at Shen Jingchuan. "You even added a plot! 666!"
"Hmph, six, who am I, Shen Jingchuan? There's nothing in this world that I can't do."
"Okay, then take a look at what color lipstick I'm wearing today."
"Hmph, such trivial matters can be handled by my assistant. Next challenge: three minutes, and you'll see my full power."
Wen Yan burst out laughing: "President Shen, President Shen, your three-minute and forceful statement is indeed a bit dangerous; it might make people misunderstand."
"Get out! What kind of nonsense is in your head? Get out of here right now."
The two laughed and joked as they left the house one after the other.
Looking at the two of them standing close together from behind, Shen Jingxiu felt relieved.
When these two are together, they're like two children who never grow up.
He followed behind the two of them, then silently glanced back at another bag placed at the foot of the bed, silently noting the visual effect between normal pink and dusty pink.
He thought to himself that he would definitely not make the same mistake again next time.

The family met on time in the hotel lobby and then took a car to their destination.
As planned, they first took a sightseeing train around the city, and then came to a relatively retro town to taste various delicacies and experience the local customs and culture.
The family of seven hadn't enjoyed such a relaxing holiday in a long time.
They had a wonderful time all day.
As the sun was setting, they arrived at a restaurant.
The restaurant's specialty is seafood, and the waiter suggested that they go to the fresh seafood section to select their own dishes when ordering.
The two parents were too lazy to do it, so they handed the task over to their children.
After playing outside all day, everyone was quite tired. As a responsible older brother, Shen Jingxiu took the initiative to take on this task.
"Please sit down, I'll go take a look."
"Then I'll go with you, brother."
Wen Yan felt that Shen Jingxiu seemed to feel guilty because she had confronted him this morning about why he hadn't replied to her messages.
So he was very good to himself all day today, and he took the initiative to take care of himself while we were sightseeing.
Everyone is tired now, and he is no exception. If he has to serve the whole family by himself, he may not say it, but he must be feeling a bit exhausted. If I go with him, I can help him share some of the burden.
Shen Jingxiu did not refuse Wen Yan's suggestion.
Actually, she could have handled it all by herself without going with us; it was just a matter of catching a few seafood.
But he does have a little bit of selfishness now.
He certainly wouldn't let her do anything, but just having her by his side, even if she was just standing silently behind him, seemed to make him feel content.
Wen Yan, however, did not have such a rich inner world as Shen Jingxiu.
She immediately stood up from her seat: "Let's go, brother. I really want to eat a big crab leg today, salt-baked. Let's hurry up and get the food out so we can eat as soon as possible."
"Okay, let's go."
The two followed the waiter, one in front of the other, towards the fresh produce section.
They hadn't gone far when they heard Su Yang and Shen Yuan talking.
"Don't you think Jingxiu has become more cheerful and lively since this trip? Before, it seemed like he didn't care about anything except work, but today he took the initiative to try a lot. He helped his sister carry her bag and ate ice cream with her. He's no longer the taciturn guy who just liked to shut himself in his study."
"Yes, it was definitely the right decision to come out this time. Everyone seems very relaxed."
“I think so too. I’ve already decided where we’re going next. In a few months it will be summer in China, the hottest time of the year. Then our whole family will find a cool place to escape the heat. I’ve been here for two days and I’m already feeling a bit hot. It looks like we’ll have to go somewhere else in winter. We definitely won’t come back here.”
