Were you scared in Chapter 140?



"Fourth Brother." Wen Yan walked around the sofa, following in Shen Jingchuan's footsteps.

Shen Yuan, who was still angry, called out to her: "Yan Yan, ignore him and let him go!"

Shen Jingchuan did not go far.

He heard everything.

Yes, as a father, he certainly knows how to say that.

'Ignore him, let him go.'

He won't give up until he reaches the Yellow River; he'll understand later.

But why can't he try to understand his son and the areas his son likes?

Is it really that difficult?

However, Wen Yan did not listen to Shen Yuan's words.

“Dad, Fourth Brother is angry right now. I’m going to talk to him for a bit. I’m worried about his driving safety in this state.”

Shen Jingchuan paused again.

Mom was so touched!

He knew that Wen Yan was the best friend in this family!

He felt so wronged just now but he didn't do anything about it. But now that Wen Yan has caught up with him, he burst into tears.

To prevent Wen Yan from seeing his tearful eyes, he quickly went outside.

The outdoor lighting was dim, and his car was parked not far ahead.

Wen Yan quickly caught up with him and pulled him back.

"Don't walk so fast! You always like to drive fast, and now you're like this, it's really worrying!"

"Don't worry, I'll be fine. No matter how angry I am, I won't risk my life. You should go back; it's freezing outside."

"No way! You don't even look at me when you talk to me, how can I feel at ease? How about I make a funny face at you?"

"What are you making faces for?! You'd better go inside now."

"No way!" Wen Yan argued with Shen Jingchuan. "Just look at me, just once!"

Shen Jingchuan had no choice but to turn his head away.

Before Wen Yan could even start making a funny face, he made a pig nose expression first.

Wen Yan was amused by him: "What are you doing? How come you're faster than me?"

Shen Jingchuan reached out and gently rubbed Wen Yan's face with both hands, finally revealing a smile.

"Why are you making faces when you're so pretty? I'd rather make a pig face for you. Okay, I'm really fine. Think about it, I begged and pleaded to get all this investment. Would I be stupid enough to drive myself to my death?"

“You won’t.” Wen Yan shook her head and laughed as well. “It seems your mindset is much better now.”

"Yeah, but I feel a little guilty for ruining your discharge celebration."

"No need! Didn't you give me a gift? I'll go open it and take a look in a bit."

"Okay, if you don't like it, you can ask me to change it to something else. I'm leaving now, you can go in."

With that, Shen Jingchuan opened the car door and got in.

Wen Yan waved to him and watched him drive away.

With Shen Jingchuan gone, the atmosphere at home instantly turned icy.

But Shen Yuan still announced that dinner was served.

But everyone found the meal tasteless and bland.

Shen Yuan even left halfway through the meal, and Su Yang wasn't in the mood for it either.

The remaining three, Wen Yan, Shen Jingxiu, and Shen Jinghe, also lost their appetite.

Shen Jingxiu and Shen Jinghe seemed very busy, constantly answering phone calls.

Wen Yan simply went back to her own room.

Only then did she have time to open the small black box that Shen Jingchuan had given her.

It was a jade pendant carved into the shape of a Buddha statue.

Looking at the smiling, pot-bellied Buddha in her palm, Wen Yan couldn't help but smile as well.

No wonder Shen Jingchuan said he gave her this to ward off misfortune.

She had indeed heard many stories about jade warding off disasters, and there was even a saying that men should wear Guanyin and women should wear Buddha.

He really put his heart into it.

Wen Yan quickly put the pendant around her neck and sent Shen Jingchuan a 'buyer's show' photo.

Shen Jingchuan quickly gave a reply.

'nice'

Wen Yan replied to him instantly: 'Drive carefully, don't reply to me.'

-

Wen Yan originally wanted to take a hot bath to relax.

Unexpectedly, her first feeling after soaking was hunger, very, very hungry.

She had just finished getting dressed and was about to go downstairs to find something to eat when there was a knock on the door.

When they opened the door, they were surprised to see Shen Jinghe.

"Second Brother? What a rare guest! You actually came all the way up to the third floor to see me? May I ask what brings you here?"

Shen Jinghe rolled his eyes at her: "Can't I come to see you if I don't have important business to discuss?"

"Of course not."

"Are we going down?"

"Hmm, you noticed that too!"

"Isn't that obvious? I have eyes. You're dressed so warmly, it's obvious you're planning to go down. What were you doing just now?"

"I didn't do anything, just removed my makeup and took a bath."

"Have you opened the gift? It's from Shen Jingchuan."

"Yes! It's been demolished."

Do you like it?

"I like it, so what? You seem strange. Why are you asking these questions, and in such detail?"

"Wild boars can't eat fine food, and you can't even handle my care for you."

Wen Yan: [Man with a poisonous tongue]

"I didn't prepare a gift for you as thoughtfully as Shen Jingchuan, but if you happen to be hungry, I can treat you to something to eat."

Wen Yan's eyes lit up: "Perfect! I was indeed hungry, and I went downstairs to find something to eat."

"Come with me."

There is also a small living room on the third floor.

Shen Jinghe took Wen Yan with him.

It turned out that he had already set out two self-heating hot pots on the coffee table.

I could smell the fragrance even before I got close to Wen Yan.

"Wow, Second Brother, where did you get this? I didn't know we had this kind of convenience food at home."

As Wen Yan spoke, she couldn't wait to sit down on the carpet next to the coffee table.

Shen Jinghe followed closely: "As far as I know, we don't have this kind of thing at home. All our food is usually made fresh in the kitchen. I found this in my suitcase."

"…………" Wen Yan paused for a moment as she picked up her chopsticks.

"Your suitcase? When did you get this suitcase? It's not from years ago, is it? This thing isn't expired, is it?"

“…………Then I’ll switch with you.”

"This isn't a matter of replacing one or the other. If you bought them in the same batch, they will all expire together."

"Really?" Shen Jinghe leaned over and looked at the outer packaging of the mini hot pot with a serious expression. "Oh no, this was produced last year."

"Ah?" Wen Yan swallowed hard, feeling regretful. "Then it's definitely not edible, but strangely, I smell a fragrance instead of a foul odor, which means there must be a lot of preservatives in it. I should just throw it away."

Shen Jinghe chuckled, "I was just kidding! I bought this a few days ago. What do you take me for? Would I offer you expired food?"

Wen Yan glared at Chen Jinghe: "You're so boring, trying to amuse me with this."

"Just kidding, otherwise how could we stay in this house tonight in this kind of atmosphere? Were you scared just now?"

Wen Yan was silent for a few seconds: "I wouldn't say I was scared, but the atmosphere was very oppressive and quite uncomfortable."
