☆, Chapter 16 If I lose, it's Wen Yuci's fault
"gentlemen."
Before Wen Yuci put down his phone, Aunt Jing came in with the housekeeper, Uncle Qiao. Hearing the sound, he immediately stood up and asked, "Is Uncle Qiao's arm healed?"
"He's fully recovered. Master Cen personally checked it out. Don't worry."
Uncle Qiao was injured because of the last time he went out with him. Now that he has recovered, he can finally rest assured.
He nodded and said, "Then you should have a good rest first. I'll go to the company first."
When Shu Wanning went downstairs, the servant was still cleaning the living room. Uncle Qiao happened to come in hurriedly from outside. When he saw her, Wang Qiao immediately bowed and said:
"Hello, Madam. I'm Housekeeper Qiao. There's someone outside who wants to see you."
"Hello, Uncle Qiao, who is outside the door?"
"It's Miss Ye Jiahui. She and the young master have been friends for many years."
"If she's Wen Yuci's friend, please invite her in."
Shu Wanning walked downstairs and Aunt Jing handed her a glass of warm water. She took a sip and sat on the sofa. The sound of high heels came from outside the door.
She looked up and saw Ye Jiahui wearing a yellow dress, carrying a small bag of the same color, with brown curly hair and big round eyes, looking like a doll.
As soon as she entered the room and saw Shu Wanning, she immediately extended her hand, with a bright smile on her face, and greeted her warmly: "Hi~ You must be my sister-in-law!"
Shu Wanning looked at the beautiful girl in front of him, nodded slowly, and responded softly: "Hello."
Ye Jiahui stepped forward and introduced herself: "Hello sister-in-law, I am Ye Jiahui.
Here's what happened. I just came back from abroad today and heard from Brother Cen You and the others that Brother Yu Ci was married. I didn't believe it, so they sent me over to take a look."
Shu Wanning seemed a little uneasy in the face of Ye Jiahui's enthusiastic attitude.
She nodded slightly to show politeness, and then said softly: "Please sit down for a while. Wen Yu has resigned from the company."
Ye Jiahui didn't seem to care about Shu Wanning's reservedness. She sat down next to Shu Wanning and said, "Sister-in-law, I came to see you! Can I take you out to play?"
Shu Wanning was a little overwhelmed by Ye Jiahui's sudden invitation. She shook her head gently and declined politely, "I'm sorry, I don't really feel like going out right now."
"Go ahead! You only have a few friends like Brother Yuci, and he's the same. He won't even take you out to play!"
The phone rang at this moment. Shu Wanning picked up the phone. Wen Yuci's voice was a little low:
"Ye Jiahui came to see you, right? I didn't know she was coming back today. Cen You organized a group. Do you want to come out together? I'll go back and pick you up."
From his tone, he seemed to be looking forward to her going out. She responded, "No need to come back to pick me up. I'll let Uncle Qiao take me there."
Hearing this, Ye Jiahui leaned over to the phone and said, "Brother Yuci, don't worry. I'll bring the driver and will definitely bring my sister-in-law there safely!"
After hanging up the phone, Shu Wanning stood up and said, "Sorry, please wait for me for a moment. I'll go change my clothes."
"Okay sister-in-law, go ahead! Don't worry!"
When Wen Yuci arrived half awake, there were already four people in the private room: Cen You, Qiu Yuerong, Shen Qingchen and Wen Yuming.
He took off his coat and draped it on the sofa, then asked, "Did you let Ye Jiahui go to Qianyue Bay?"
Cen You quickly shook his head and denied it: "No, she wanted to go there on her own."
After saying that, he handed a glass of wine to Wen Yuci and said jokingly, "Why are you watching him so closely? You're so reluctant to bring him out for us to see?"
Wen Yuci: "She doesn't like going out, so don't bother her later."
"Oh, you're protecting me now?"
Wen Yuci glanced at him without saying anything. After finishing a glass of wine, the phone rang. It was Shu Wanning saying that she had arrived.
The door to the private room was pushed open, and Ye Jiahui stood at the door, proudly raising her chin and saying, "I brought my sister-in-law here!"
The room was silent for a moment. Ye Jiahui put her hands on her hips and said in disbelief, "Don't you want to welcome me?"
Cen You, Wen Yuming, Shen Qingchen: "Welcome, welcome."
Extremely perfunctory.
Wen Yuci stood up and walked to Shu Wanning. Her curly hair was draped over her shoulders. She was wearing a black coat and a warm white scarf around her neck.
He had taken off his glasses when he entered the private room. He smiled at her and said, "Let me introduce my friend to you."
"The one in the white sweater is Shen Qingchen, and the one stuck together is Cen You and his girlfriend Qiu Yuerong. We grew up together."
Shu Wanning nodded to the others, and Wen Yuci pulled her aside and said to them, "Shu Wanning, my wife."
Cen You: "Hello, sister-in-law."
Shen Qingchen: "Hello, sister-in-law!"
Qiu Yuerong's eyes swirled between the two of them, finally looking at Wen Yuci. Then, she leaned close to Cen You and whispered, "I don't know who said they didn't want to get married before."
She waved at Shu Wanning, patted the seat next to her and said with a faint smile: "Come and sit down."
Wen Yuci took Shu Wanning's clothes and scarf and placed them next to his own clothes. Ye Jiahui sat next to Shen Qingchen and whispered, "Now you're the only bachelor!"
"You're not?" Shen Qingchen asked back.
Shu Wanning walked over to sit next to Qiu Yuerong. As soon as she sat down, Qiu Yuerong asked her with a curved lip, "Are you feeling better?"
"Um?"
Seeing Shu Wanning was a little confused, Qiu Yuerong explained: "I'm a doctor. Last time you were sick, I was the one who gave you the IV."
Hearing this, Shu Wanning nodded: "Much better, thank you last time."
Qiu Yuerong replaced the drink with a lighter one and handed it to her, saying, "Drink less and take care of your health."
Qiu Yuerong has the figure and face of a queen, and is a beauty with single eyelids.
Shu Wanning has curved eyebrows, slightly shallow double eyelids, a light complexion, and a strong, cool aura.
The two people sat together, with different styles but surprisingly harmonious.
Shu Wanning held the wine glass and looked at Ye Jiahui. He heard that she had been away for two years, but she didn't seem very enthusiastic about them.
Suddenly, Ye Jiahui took out two decks of cards from her small bag, shook them, and said, "Let's play cards!"
Hearing this, Wen Yuming stood up and clapped his hands: "Okay!"
Shu Wanning shook her head: "You guys play, I don't know how."
Qiu Yuerong shook her head and said comfortingly: "It's okay, if you lose, it will be Yu Ci's fault."
Wen Yuci nodded, motioning Shu Wanning to sit next to him. Qiu Yuerong then handed the wine glass to Cen You and said with a smile, "I'll play, and if I lose, it's yours."
Shu Wanning held the cards in her hand, and Wen Yuci sat beside her with his arms resting on the back of the sofa behind her, looking like he was encircling her.
When Shu Wanning was about to play a card, he raised his hand, covered Shu Wanning's hand, and led her to play another card.
"Bang..."
"Is Jiahui okay?"
The cup next to Ye Jiahui fell to the ground, but fortunately it did not break. She shook her head, picked up the glass and put it aside.
Wen Yuci didn't raise his eyes. The air conditioner in the room was turned on high, but Shu Wanning's hands were still a little cold.
He took the scarf beside him, unfolded it and gently placed it on her shoulders, then sat closer to her.
