"So what do you want to do, insult me?"
"Come on, I'm afraid I can't out-insult you, you're the one who's more likely to insult me."
"I insulted you?" Shen Jinghe paused, then asked seriously, "Is that really what you think?"
Wen Yan sensed the seriousness in his tone and thought to herself that he was really acting strangely today.
"What's wrong, Second Brother? I was just joking with you, why did you take it seriously? We used to joke like this all the time. You even went too far with your jokes with Fourth Brother."
“We’re talking about our own things, why are you suddenly bringing him up?”
"See? We can't even bring this up. But if something really happens to my fourth brother, you'll still step up and help. Second brother, it's just the two of us now, and we don't have anyone else around. Can we have a heart-to-heart talk?"

"Really?"
"Is this a lie? You can tell me anything."
"..." What Shen Jinghe was actually asking was—was his mood really fluctuating so obviously tonight?
However, since Wen Yan didn't get it, he didn't want to bring it up again.
Instead, he asked Wen Yan, "If you have something on your mind, will you tell me?"
Without hesitation, Wen Yan replied, "If you ask, I'll definitely tell you."
"If I don't ask, will you tell me on your own initiative?"
"Hmm... well, that depends on the situation."
"What do you mean?"
