She didn't even have a chance to refuse before her older brother ran away.
Thinking of her older brother's happy face, and seeing Xie Jingyan looking at her, the words of reluctance stuck in her throat, unable to be uttered. She said, "Shall I treat you to dinner?"
"You made it yourself?" Xie Jingyan asked.
Of course not, she has never cooked before, so how could she cook for herself?
However, before Shen Wan could speak, Xie Jingyan said, "That works too."
Seeing that expectant look on her face, Shen Wan couldn't bear to refuse, and it even made her look forward to her own cooking skills.
Xie Jingyan held her tightly, and Shen Wan's ears burned as she said, "Let's go back."

Shen Wan said, "You really don't want it? Then I'll make a brocade robe for my elder brother."
Xie Jingyan's face darkened, and he turned to look at Shen Wan, "What did you just ask me if I wanted it or not?"
Shen Wan didn't think much of it and said, "I'm asking you if you want these two bolts of silk."
Xie Jingyan said, "Since they've all been delivered, we can't just throw them away. Make them into a brocade robe for me to wear."
Shen Wan, "..."
That attitude changed so smoothly.
