Wen Yan blinked.
Why isn't he smiling this time? Could it be that I guessed right? Tsk, not having the original owner's memories is such a hassle. Whatever, I'll just wait for him to come looking for me. I'll deal with whatever comes my way!
"..." This time, Shen Jingcheng didn't look at Wen Yan anymore, but his brows furrowed even more.
-
This was the most complete family reunion the Shen family had had in many years, and the ordinary meal didn't end until 11 p.m.
Of course, the main activity of this meal was not 'eating', but 'chatting'. There were eight family members, and they could chat with anyone about their lives for ten minutes or so.
However, this time the main focus was on Shen Jingcheng, and most of the conversation revolved around him.
Unlike his other brothers, he wasn't aloof. He was generally willing to answer any questions and his way of speaking made people feel comfortable.
Wen Yan was particularly interested in his work, and she didn't want to actively explore what kind of 'grudges' or stories the original owner and Shen Jingcheng had in the past.
Anyway, she wouldn't miss the opportunity to have a deeper conversation if Shen Jingcheng brought up something that interested her.
So after dinner, the whole family knew that she was planning a cultural exploration reality show.
She didn't even have to ask; Shen Jingcheng offered to be the cultural consultant for her program.
This was an unexpected surprise for Wen Yan: "Thank you so much, Third Brother. To be honest, when Mom called us today to say you were back, Yu Long and I were working on the program. On the way back, we were thinking about whether we could invite you. We were worried that you wouldn't be interested. Well, that's great! You've solved a big problem for us!"
Shen Jingcheng smiled and looked at Wen Yan: "I'm very interested, and I hope I can be of help to you this time."
“Yes, a family should help each other.” Su Yang was pleased to see this and added, “By the way, Yan Yan, if you need any help with clothing design, just let me know. Mom has the resources.”
"Okay, Mom, thank you."
"Oh, by the way," Su Yang asked Shen Jingcheng again, "you won't be going on business trips anymore, right? Otherwise, how can you be a consultant for your sister and the others when we can't contact you for a year and a half?"
“Mom,” Shen Jingcheng chuckled, “I probably won’t be getting any government-sponsored assignments for the next year or two. Even if there’s a major discovery, I can’t be the only one responsible for it.”
"Yes, yes, yes!" Su Yang couldn't wait for her son to stay by her side longer. "It's also time to give your other colleagues some opportunities. Do your best, Mom is looking forward to your new show. The TV programs lately haven't been very good, but Mom has high hopes for you!"
“It’s still a long way off, Mom,” Wen Yan said. “Cultural programs can’t be taken lightly; it probably won’t be done in less than three years.”
"Then I'll wait for you for two or three years. Good things come to those who wait!"
“Then please ask Third Brother to come to the company tomorrow,” Qin Yulong said. “We need to meet with the team and have a meeting. Although we are family, we still need to go through the normal procedures for signing contracts.”
Shen Jingcheng nodded: "Okay, I agree to meet first. However, I need to report the contract matter to my superiors first, but there shouldn't be any problems."
The cooperation was settled.
Since it was too late after dinner, Wen Yan did not invite Qin Yulong to go for a walk.
She went to the third-floor terrace alone.
This terrace is over 100 square meters, and Wen Yan often comes here to get some fresh air.
Sometimes I sit on a deck chair and watch the clouds, sometimes I look at the stars, and sometimes I just come here to enjoy the breeze and cool off.
She's here tonight to see the snow.
The snow had almost stopped by this time, but the air I breathed still had a fresh, crisp feel.
Wen Yan really liked this scent, just like she liked the earthy smell in the air after the rain.
She couldn't help but take another deep breath.
Before he could catch his breath, a gentle yet somewhat unfamiliar male voice suddenly sounded behind him.
You're here too?
It was precisely because the voice was somewhat unfamiliar that Wen Yan immediately recognized the person as Shen Jingcheng.
She immediately turned around: "Third Brother is here too? Are you a night owl like me?"
Shen Jingcheng smiled and walked to Wen Yan's side, then stopped a step away from her.
“I’m not a night owl; I usually go to bed early if I can. But like you, I love the terrace at home. I remember when we first moved in, you loved this terrace on the third floor the most. You even scared Mom and Dad once, remember?”
Wen Yan took a deep breath and chose to play dumb: "Huh? Is that so? I don't remember. I have no recollection of it at all."
"Really?" Shen Jingcheng still had a smile on his face. "You've forgotten such a thrilling thing?"
"Yes, Third Brother, you should know that I was obsessed with the fake Zhirou for a long time. During that period, my mind was completely confused. After I figured it out, I forgot a lot of things from the past."
Shen Jingcheng smiled and nodded: "I see. But how could this have suddenly affected your memory? How are you feeling? Did you go to the hospital for a checkup afterward?"
"...No. I have absolutely no discomfort, so there's no need to go to the hospital for a checkup. I think it's more of a psychological effect."
After answering that question, Wen Yan couldn't help but mentally complain.
[This guy keeps smiling, but why does his smile seem so insincere? Is he doubting me? People are so strange. He has the exact same face as Shen Jingchuan, but the way he smiles and the feeling he gives off are completely different.]
After the original Wen Yan completely left, I lost all memories of her. Is Shen Jingcheng planning to spend the whole night reminiscing with me? If so, wouldn't I be revealing even more flaws?
Upon hearing Wen Yan's heartfelt words, Shen Jingcheng's smile finally crumbled.
The woman in front of me, who looks exactly like Wen Yan, says that the original Wen Yan has left. What does that mean?
Could they be twin sisters? But as far as he knew, Wen Yan did not have any twin sisters.
And even if they are twins, why would she say that she *completely* lost her *memories* after the original Wen Yan left?
It's not that the original Wen Yan didn't explain these things to her before she left.
Human memory itself cannot be transferred through a medium.
And the fact that one can hear her thoughts is strange in itself.
What exactly happened?
Or is it related to her mysterious discovery in Pit 46?
“You…” Shen Jingcheng wanted to ask her directly who she was, but he was unsure if he could get an answer from her.
He doesn't know her well enough, not at all.
Seeing that he suddenly fell silent, Wen Yan continued, "Huh? What's wrong with me?"
I wanted to ask...
However, before Shen Jingcheng could finish speaking, Wen Yan's phone rang.
