☆, Chapter 12 I am his sister
He walked downstairs dressed in black, and just then the door of Shu Wanning's room opened. He was wearing a black shirt and black pants, with a long black coat draped over his arm.
Shu Wanning looked up at him and asked, "Shall we set off now?"
"No hurry, have breakfast first."
Shu Wanning shook her head: "I don't have much appetite, so I won't eat."
Inside the car, Shu Wanning was still sitting next to the door, his coat draped over his shoulders, his head down, his thumbs clacking on the screen.
Wen Yuci turned his head to look at her. She lowered her head with her hair tied casually behind her head, leaving a few unruly strands hanging on her cheeks.
He stared in fascination until the car stopped outside the cemetery. Wen Yuci opened the car door. The sun was shining brightly, and it was a rare good day in winter.
He was holding a bunch of lilies. Shu Wanning followed behind him and watched him squat and gently place the lilies in front of the tombstone.
【Tomb of Wan Xiang】
There are only four words on the tombstone in front of me: She is not anyone's wife, not anyone's mother, but the free herself.
Wen Yuci knelt in front of the tomb, and Shu Wanning slowly knelt beside him. Her hand was warm, and he took her hand.
He curved his lips and whispered, "Mom, forgive me for not visiting you for so long. I came today to tell you that I have married a wife, and the person next to me is your daughter-in-law."
Shu Wanning turned her head slightly to look at him. She had known him for so long, but this was the first time she saw him looking so lonely.
His palms were warm, and even when he was kneeling, his back did not bend at all.
Shu Wanning lowered her eyes, as if she hadn't noticed. Unconsciously, he brought her an indescribable sense of security.
She kowtowed to Wen Yuci, and was then pulled up by him. He even considerately patted the dust off her knees.
Seeing that she was in a daze, Wen Yuci slowly released her hand and said softly, "Thank you." Shu Wanning shook her head to indicate that he didn't need to be so polite.
On the way back, the two of them didn't say a word. As soon as the car turned into Qianyue Bay, Wen Yuci saw a car he had never seen before.
Wen Yuming was jumping beside the car and waving at Wen Yuci's car. When he saw the car stop, he hurried over.
"Brother! This car is so cool! Thank you, brother!"
It was a mint green sports car. Shu Wanning took one look and then looked away. The red hair and green car were really hard to look at.
Wen Yuming: "Hello, sister-in-law!"
Shu Wanning nodded and walked into the living room. Wen Yuming stood beside Wen Yuci and whispered, "Brother, my sister-in-law is so cold."
"Um?"
Wen Yuming: "High and cold."
Wen Yuci glanced down at him and said with a hint of disdain, "Why are you here again?"
"Hey, I just came to see you."
Wen Yuci continued to stare at him without saying anything. After a moment, Wen Yuming lowered his head guiltily and said, "I want to come to your place to hide from my mother."
"I don't have any place for you to stay here."
"Brother, please don't lie with your eyes open."
He hugged Wen Yuci's arm and stretched out his voice, "Please, brother~ I only need a small space~ If it doesn't work, I can even sleep on the floor in the living room~"
He spoke with great emotion. Wen Yuci was annoyed by his noise and pushed him aside and said, "Move out soon."
"Okay, thank you, brother!"
He took out his package from the car and ran into the living room. Shu Wanning had changed her clothes and was drinking tea in the living room. When he saw her, Wen Yuming grinned and said, "Sister-in-law, I'm going to bother you for a few days!"
Before Shu Wanning could respond, he took the package and went upstairs. Before he could open the door to the room on the second floor, Wen Yuci stood in the living room and said, "You and I will live on the third floor."
He looked at Shu Wanning, sat across from her, picked up his teacup, and asked her, "Do you want to go to the company with me?"
Shu Wanning thought that she probably couldn't keep writing novels. If one day in the future she couldn't make money, it would be a good idea to ask Wen Yuchi to find her a suitable job.
She nodded and glanced at her clothes, a brown halter dress with a matching jacket. After confirming that she didn't need to change clothes, she nodded: "Okay."
The driver parked the car in the company's underground garage. Wen Yuci took his men upstairs from the exclusive elevator. Yan Hao, who was in the process of instructing them on their work, was stunned for a moment when he saw the two people.
He quickly hung up the phone and ran to Wen Yuci. He glanced at Shu Wanning and asked, "Boss, do you need me to show my wife around?"
Thinking of Shu Wanning's preference for solitude, and seeing her shaking her head to say she didn't want to visit, Wen Yuci said, "No need. Move a computer to my office and show her the surveillance footage."
After he finished speaking, he looked at Shu Wanning with an inquiring look. Seeing her nod, he led his people into the office.
He pointed at the sofa and said, "You sit down first. You can slowly look through the company's surveillance. I'm going to the meeting first."
Yan Hao placed the computer on the table, switched the screen, and pushed the mouse towards Shu Wanning, saying respectfully, "You watch first, I'll go to work first."
Shu Wanning leaned against the sofa with her legs crossed, and put the computer on her legs to watch. There were so many surveillance images on the computer that Shu Wanning felt dizzy.
She randomly clicked on one and saw that everyone at their workstations was working. She got bored and switched a few scenes.
Her eyes fell on the surveillance camera in the conference room. When she clicked it, she saw Wen Yuci reading the employees' work reports.
Suddenly, she saw the corners of Wen Yuci's lips move slightly. She turned up the volume and heard Wen Yuci making suggestions for rectification of the employee's plan.
His voice was indifferent, and no emotion could be detected. His eyes and brows were filled with indifference, and he had the natural aura of a superior.
She enlarged the picture and saw him working for the first time. He looked very different from usual. It turned out that this man had two faces.
She was watching intently when there was a knock on the office door. She switched the surveillance footage and saw a woman in professional work clothes standing at the door.
Wen Yuci was not there, and Shu Wanning did not intend to respond, but she did not expect that the man would just push open the office door.
Shu Wanning looked up and met her gaze. The man was dressed in clean and appropriate work clothes, with his hair tied up, and looked unfriendly.
The man looked at Shu Wanning, his eyebrows furrowed, and asked, "Who are you? Where is President Wen?"
Her eyes were filled with undisguised hostility. Shu Wanning said calmly, "He's in a meeting."
"Who are you then?"
"I?"
Shu Wanning pursed her lips and replied, "I'm his sister."
"Haven't you heard that President Wen has a sister? Are you trying to seduce President Wen?"
The man suddenly became excited. Shu Wanning raised her eyebrows in understanding. It turned out that he was the one who liked Wen Yuci.
She raised her eyes to look at her, straightened up, rested her arms on her knees, tapped her cheek with her fingertips, tilted her head, and said calmly: "Why don't you wait for him here for a while, and ask him when he comes back?"
Shu Wanning originally thought that she would refuse, but she didn't expect that she would sit down on the sofa opposite her, look her up and down, and then let out a mocking smile.
Shu Wanning was upset by her, so he simply turned off the computer, picked up his phone, and leaned back on the sofa, scrolling through it boredly.
