Wen Yan hurriedly returned home alone.
When she entered, she still had a look of bewilderment on her face.
Shen Jingcheng was sitting on the sofa in the living room when he saw Wen Yan come in alone. He asked in confusion, "Why are you alone?"
Wen Yan was also somewhat surprised: "Third Brother? What are you still doing here? Why aren't you asleep so late?"
Shen Jingcheng smiled. Although he had the same face as Shen Jingchuan, his smile was as warm as a spring breeze: "I'm waiting for you."
Wen Yan was even more surprised: "Ah? Waiting for us."
"Yes, it's too late. Aunt Zhang has been busy all day, so I told her to go and rest. I'll leave a light on for you."
Wen Yan nodded: "Oh, actually, just leaving a light on is enough. There's no need to sit here and wait."
“I didn’t just wait around,” Shen Jingcheng said with a gentle smile, “I was scrolling through my phone.”
After saying that, he asked again, "Where is my older brother? Didn't you all go out together? Why hasn't he come back?"
“Oh,” Wen Yan forced a smile, “We ran into my second brother on the way back, and they chatted for a while.”
"I see." Shen Jingcheng nodded.
No sooner had he finished speaking than Shen Jingxiu and Shen Jinghe entered the room.
The two were clearly taken aback when they saw Shen Jingcheng there as well.
A few seconds later, Shen Jinghe quickly put on the hoodie, and even Shen Jingxiu quickly lowered his head.
The two of them silently strode upstairs. One chose to walk up the stairs, while the other went straight into the elevator, clearly intending to separate.
However, although the two brothers fled the scene quickly without saying a word, Shen Jingcheng and Wen Yan still saw it clearly.
Both of them had injuries on their faces; Shen Jinghe's eyes were swollen, and Shen Jingxiu had a cut on the corner of his mouth.
Upon seeing this scene, Shen Jingcheng couldn't help but frown.
However, he quickly composed himself and looked at Wen Yan: "What's wrong with them?"
What could Wen Yan say? She blinked and could only make up a story: "Maybe... it's too dark outside, and it bumped into a tree?"
“Hmm,” Shen Jingcheng didn’t expose Wen Yan’s clumsy nonsense, “That makes sense, it’s really too dark outside.”
"Right, hahaha." Wen Yan smiled. "Sometimes I bump into chairs and tables when I'm walking."
"Okay, go back and rest early. You're going to visit Grandma tomorrow, so you can't sleep in."
"Okay, Third Brother, you too."
After saying that, Wen Yan went to the elevator.
Because the elevator had just been used by Shen Jinghe, Wen Yan had to wait.
Although it was only a short 'journey' of one floor, Wen Yan still felt like she was being pricked by needles.
Is Shen Jingcheng watching me? Why do I always have this feeling that he's scrutinizing me?
We're all grown up, and he still says he's leaving a light on for us and waiting for us. Could he know something? Did my older brothers just have a fight? OMG, God help us!
Ding—The elevator doors opened, and Wen Yan stepped inside, her inner thoughts coming to an abrupt halt at that moment.
Shen Jingcheng stared at the closed elevator doors, a faint sorrow etched on his brow.
The eldest and second eldest actually made a move, and the fourth eldest wasn't even included.
Is Wen Yan really the lucky star her parents talk about?
Wen Yan had a dream in which she fell into a huge pit.
At the bottom of the pit is a tunnel, and inside the tunnel is a signpost with the number '46' written on it.
She struggled immensely to climb out, but once outside, she turned into a rag doll.
Several people were still guarding the tunnel exit. They were very excited when they saw her turn into a rag doll and rushed over to snatch her away.
One of them grabbed her head, another her arm, and the third her leg. They kept pulling and pulling until they tore her to pieces.
And those who tore her to pieces were none other than Shen Jingxiu and his group.
They all looked like they had red-eye special effects on, smiling sinisterly, their mouths almost twisted to the back of their ears, which startled Wen Yan awake.
"Phew~" Wen Yan suddenly sat up in bed, her body already soaked in cold sweat.
"What a terrible dream." Wen Yan adjusted her sweat-soaked pajamas and walked straight into the bathroom.
Beneath the water curtain, Wen Yan intended to clear her mind, but the events of last night suddenly flashed into her mind like a bomb going off, and no matter what she did, she couldn't shake them off, which was very irritating.
However, after taking a bath, Wen Yan had made up her mind. She would never let her brothers tear her to pieces.
She decided to have a serious talk with Shen Jingxiu and Shen Jinghe.
-
At breakfast, Su Yang noticed that Shen Jinghe's eye was swollen, and Shen Jingchuan also noticed that Shen Jingxiu had a wound on the corner of his mouth.
Su Yang asked Shen Jinghe what was going on.
Shen Jinghe said calmly, "I was bitten by some kind of bug while I was jogging last night."
"Huh?" Su Yang stared at Shen Jinghe's wound for a long time. "Then this bug must be poisonous. Should we call a doctor to come and take a look at you?"
"No need, Mom." Shen Jinghe lowered his head and ate. "Mosquito bites also cause swelling, but I don't see anyone going to the hospital."
"But this is on your eyes."
"It doesn't matter."
Did you apply the ointment?
...While the mother and son were talking, Shen Jingchuan kept staring at Shen Jingxiu.
Shen Jingxiu put down his chopsticks, startled by the gaze: "What's wrong?"
Shen Jingchuan raised an eyebrow: "You... was this also caused by an insect bite? It's even broken."
"I am not."
