They were speaking at a normal volume, and Shen Jingxiu hadn't gone far, so he heard almost all of their conversation.
However, he didn't take Su Yang's suggestion about traveling to different places to heart.
All he knew was that they could see the change in his feelings for Wen Yan, and that he was becoming more proactive.
But they didn't suspect anything.
That's good.
It's best if they know nothing.
-
There weren't many customers in the restaurant, and everyone was eating in a relaxed manner.
Wen Yan and her family ate for almost two hours.
It was already dark by then.
Wen Yan downed the last bit of wine in her glass and asked everyone, "I'm so full, almost stuffed, and this wine tastes better than I expected. I've really enjoyed myself today. How about you guys, are you all full and satisfied?"
Shen Jinghe glanced at Wen Yan: "I can tell you're having a good time. You don't usually drink, but you had several refills. Why don't you take a bottle home with you?"
"No need for that. I don't actually like drinking that much, so bringing it back is really unnecessary. But I have another question. Are we still going to the bar? Dinner seems to have gone overtime. According to the original plan, we should be at the bar right now. But I'm so full, I can't go to the next bar, and I've already had enough to drink. I don't think I really want to go, but I don't know if that would be too much of a mood killer?"
"What a spoilsport!" Shen Jinghe said to Wen Yan. "I don't want to go either, so let's go back to the hotel and rest first."
“Yes, if you don’t want to go, then don’t go,” Su Yang said. “It is indeed a bit late today. If you don’t want to go, then don’t go. Those who want to go can go in groups or by themselves. Mom is really happy that our family has been doing group activities these past two days, but this is not mandatory, so Yan Yan, please don’t say anything that will spoil the mood. And to be honest, I don’t want to move anymore, I’m too tired today. It was my poor planning that led to this. After walking around all day, who has any extra energy?”
Shen Jingchuan: "So, I'm destined to be alone tonight? None of you are going?"
Shen Jinghe: "Do you need us to accompany you?"
Shen Jingchuan: "I just don't need you to accompany me, thank you."
Su Yang: "Then it seems you'll have to go to Jingchuan alone. But aren't you tired? I don't want to get up once I sit here."
Shen Jingchuan: "Mom, forgive me for being blunt, but your physical strength isn't what it used to be. It's understandable for you and Dad, after all, you're getting on in years. You should all learn from me. How about this, Wenyan, since you're resting and don't have any work scheduled right now, you can work out with me when you get back. I'll arrange running, cycling, and weightlifting for you, at least three hours a day?"
Wen Yan stared in disbelief: "...Three hours? Are you serious? I suspect you're trying to murder me, but why can't you just do it in a more direct way?"
Shen Jingchuan: "I think there might be some misunderstanding between us. I'm doing this for your own good. To be honest, I need a workout partner, and besides you, I can't find anyone more suitable."
Wen Yan: "Why? Why do you think I'm the most suitable candidate? Do I look like someone who loves fitness?"
Shen Jingchuan: "But you seem easier to train, so others might not listen to me."
Wen Yan: "I'll politely decline your thanks, but I won't listen to you anyway. I need to pee, so I'm going to the restroom first. I hope you'll already be on your way to the bar when I get back. Please, just for my sake, give me some face."
After saying that, Wen Yan pulled out her chair and left her seat.
Shen Jingchuan chuckled: "Look how scared you are. Where would I find the time to spend three hours exercising every day? Wouldn't it be better to use that time to sleep?"
Wen Yan ignored Shen Jingchuan because she really needed to pee.
After asking a passing waiter for directions, she immediately went to the restroom.
Just as she finished relieving herself and was about to wash her hands, she suddenly heard someone call her name.
But the voice sounded very unfamiliar.
Wen Yan turned around and met the eyes of a young, unfamiliar girl.
The girl visibly became excited after seeing her.
"Ahhh, Wen Yan, are you really Miss Wen Yan? I'm your fan. I saw your live stream and knew you were traveling. What a coincidence! It's such a coincidence that I didn't expect to meet you here. You're so beautiful, a hundred times more beautiful in person than on camera. Can I shake your hand?"
Su Yang didn't choose a popular tourist city this time, so it was quite unexpected that she would run into her fan Wen Yan here.
Seeing how enthusiastic the other person was, Wen Yan almost reached out to shake hands with them.
However, she quickly withdrew her hand: "Wait a moment, let me wash my hands first. I just came out of there."
"Okay! Go ahead and wash up, I'll wait for you." The girl looked at Wen Yan with eyes that practically lit up.
As Wen Yan bent down to wash her hands, the girl was also looking at herself in the mirror. After a while, the girl suddenly asked, "Yan Yan, I have a few friends outside. They all like you very much. Do you mind if I invite them to come over with me?"
"Huh?" Wen Yan immediately looked up. "We came here together? That's probably not a good idea, since this is the restroom. They're waiting for you outside, right? I think it would be better if the two of us went out together."
"Oh right! I was so confused." The girl slapped her forehead and said, "Can I send them a message first? So they can be happy in advance too."
"Of course you can, you're in charge of your own information."
