Chapter 155 Doubt



As dawn broke, Jiang Nian'an came out of the house.

Shen Nanxing has already started.

He glanced behind Jiang Nian'an but didn't see Xiao Yin and the other two.

"Did Little Silver and the others run off to play again?"

“Hmm,” Jiang Nian’an stretched and said as she walked toward the bathroom, “They ran away in the middle of the night.”

In the middle of the night?

Shen Nanxing's eyes flickered, and he remembered the child's voice he vaguely heard before falling asleep in the middle of the night.

"An'an, are there children talking under your window at night?"

Jiang Nian'an paused in washing her face. Had Brother Chen heard her talking to Xiao Zhanzhan?

How much did he hear?

Is he testing her now, or is he really just asking if there are any children passing by outside the window?

In a short moment, various guesses flashed through Jiang Nian'an's mind.

"Child? No, I didn't hear that... I didn't hear it."

Jiang Nian'an forced herself to remain calm, and after speaking, she continued to wash her face with her head down.

Shen Nanxing didn't ask the question again, but he still felt that something was off.

Jiang Nian'an quickly came out of the bathroom.

She glanced at Shen Nanxing, seemingly unintentionally.

Shen Nanxing appeared perfectly normal, showing no sign of anything amiss on his face.

Jiang Nian'an was conflicted.

Seeing Chen Ge like this made it difficult for her to decide whether to tell only half the truth or continue lying in a desperate attempt to cover it up...

"An'an? Is my face...not clean enough?"

When Shen Nanxing saw Jiang Nian'an staring blankly at him after coming out of the bathroom, he subconsciously touched his face.

"Oh? No, it's very clean!"

Jiang Nian'an snapped out of her daze, walked over and sat down next to Shen Nanxing, gave him a smile, and took out breakfast from her spatial storage.

'Knock knock—'

"Sister An'an, are you all up?"

Luo Yue's voice came from outside the door, sounding somewhat anxious.

Jiang Nian'an immediately put the instant buns and millet porridge she had taken out back into her spatial storage and replaced them with a few pieces of bread.

Shen Nanxing then got up and walked to the door to open it for Luo Yue.

Shen Nanxing looked at Luo Yi beside him, his voice cold, "Is there something you need?"

"The Star City Base sent a distress call to the Mountain City Base, saying that their base was attacked by a group of monsters and they were forced to hide inside the base and could not come out."

Luo Yi quickly relayed the information he had just received.

"In desperation, we organized a suicide squad of more than fifty people, but only two managed to break through and are currently with the base chief in Shanshi."

Upon hearing about the matter in Xing City, Shen Nanxing's mind was in turmoil, but he did not show it on his face.

He looked at Luo Yi calmly and asked indifferently, "And then?"

Luo Yi didn't answer Shen Nanxing's question. He just patted the door that Shen Nanxing was blocking, his face darkening. "Why don't you let us in first!"

Shen Nanxing glanced at him and let go of his hand.

Luo Yi led Luo Yue into the house, and as soon as he looked down, he saw the bread on the table.

He clicked his tongue lightly, "Who would have thought that the dignified Second Young Master Shen would one day be reduced to eating bread?"

Shen Nanxing remained expressionless, strode over to Jiang Nian'an, sat down next to her, and picked up a chocolate bread.

Under the watchful eyes of Luo Yi and his sister, he unpacked the outer packaging, broke off a piece, and fed it to Jiang Nian'an.

After watching Jiang Nian'an open her mouth to eat, he looked up at Luo Yi with a pleased smile on his lips.

"With someone I love by my side, I'm happy even if we eat coarse food."

Luo Yi: "......"

Luo Yi rolled his eyes, pulled Luo Yue to sit opposite them, and muttered under his breath.

"So what if he got a girlfriend? What's the big deal..."

"Well, it's nothing special, but I have it that you don't."

Shen Nanxing chuckled and continued feeding Jiang Nian'an bread.

Jiang Nian'an knew he was showing off intentionally, so she didn't stop him. Instead, she imitated him, took a piece of bread, and fed it to him.

The main theme is a harmonious and supportive relationship, allowing him to show off to the fullest.

Shen Nanxing's smile grew even brighter, and he felt incredibly satisfied.

Luo Yue propped her face up with her hands, staring intently at the two of them with a broad, aunt-like smile.

Luo Yi's eyes were practically rolling to the sky.

He's so bored, instead of sleeping in this morning, he comes here to eat dog food...

So annoying!

"Alright, alright, I know you're happy!"

After a long pause, Luo Yi picked up a piece of bread from the table, took a vicious bite, and then asked Shen Nanxing in a low voice, "Such a big thing happened in Xing City, aren't you curious?"

Just as Jiang Nian'an was about to ask what was wrong, Shen Nanxing took the opportunity of wiping her mouth to signal her to calm down.

Jiang Nian'an understood and swallowed the words that were on the tip of her tongue.

"Curious, but what does it have to do with us?"

Shen Nanxing glanced at Luo Yi and said, "In this world, meddling in other people's business might get you killed."

“I don’t want to meddle in other people’s business, but this is the reason I came here.”

Luo Yi's expression suddenly turned serious. "Not only me, but the other families have also sent people out."

"What do you mean? Why would you all be involved in the Star City incident?"

Shen Nanxing straightened his expression and stared at Luo Yi with a serious look.

Luo Yi stopped talking, leaned back, and calmly began eating his bread.

Shen Nanxing: "..."
