☆, Chapter 17 Brother, you like her
Noticing his actions, Shen Qingchen, with a smirk, immediately picked up his phone and sent a message to Wen Yuci.
【Qingchen: Brother, you like her. 】
Wen Yuci looked at these few words on the phone, raised his eyes to look at Shen Qingchen, who was looking at him confidently.
After turning off the phone, Shu Wanning suddenly turned around and said in a low voice, "You... are too close to me."
Wen Yuci lowered her eyes, but he did not avoid her. Instead, he curled his lips and raised his chin to signal her to continue playing cards.
His hands were placed behind Shu Wanning's back, so she could lean on his arms if she leaned back slightly.
Before she could move away, Ye Jiahui put down the cards in her hand and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, you lose."
Qiu Yuerong put down the cards in her hand, glanced at her and said, "It's only the first round, why rush?"
After playing two rounds, Wen Yuci found that Shu Wanning no longer needed his help, and there were a lot of chips piled in front of him.
Cen You laughed twice and joked, "Haha, it seems my sister-in-law has some newbie benefits."
He took out his cell phone, hugged Qiu Yuerong and continued with a smile: "Come, check out!"
Qiu Yuerong put down the cards in her hand and looked at Wen Yuci and said, "Remember to give the money to Wan Ning. You treat me to dinner tonight."
"OK."
Shu Wanning has a cold personality and hardly smiled the whole night, but fortunately no one minded.
She gently put down the cards in her hand, stood up and said, "Excuse me, I'm going to the bathroom."
Ye Jiahui also stood up, patted her skirt and said, "I'll go with my sister-in-law."
The bathroom was very close, and while washing her hands, Ye Jiahui suddenly asked, "Sister-in-law, how did you and Brother Yuci meet?"
Shu Wanning felt something strange about her. After a moment's hesitation, she said, "Because Yan Hao knew him."
She was right. If Yan Hao hadn't brought her to Liyuan, they wouldn't have met.
In the private room, Shen Qingchen moved closer to Wen Yuci and said with a low laugh, "Well, was I right?"
Seeing that he remained silent, Shen Qingchen continued, "Silence means you agree. I've never seen you so close to a girl before, almost hugging her."
Wen Yuci: "Go back and sit still."
When Shu Wanning came back, they were just about to go out for dinner. Wen Yuci handed her the clothes, then leaned over slightly and asked, "What do you want to eat?"
"I want something hot."
Wen Yuci nodded, picked up his glasses and put them on. When he went out, he stood next to Shu Wanning and wanted to hold her hand. When he reached out his hand, he found that she had already put her hand in her coat pocket.
“Hahahahahahahahahahahaha…”
Wen Yuming was laughing loudly in the back. As soon as Wen Yuci turned around, he fell silent and trotted into Shen Qingchen's car.
Shen Qingchen: "Why are you riding in my car again?"
"I can't be a third wheel for those two!"
Shen Qingchen reluctantly fastened his seatbelt and said, "I'll throw you out on the street when I find a girlfriend."
When they arrived at the restaurant, Shu Wanning sat next to Wen Yuci. She lowered her head to eat, and suddenly there was a piece of fish in her bowl.
She calmly placed the fish on the edge of the bowl, and only at the very end did she hide it in the rice and put it into her mouth.
Looking at this scene, Wen Yuci suddenly remembered that she seemed to do the same thing when she went to the old house for dinner for the first time.
Seeing that she picked up another dish, he poured her a glass of juice and whispered, "Sorry, I didn't know you don't like fish."
Shu Wanning took the juice and paused, then curled the corners of his lips slightly and shook his head: "It's okay."
Before the meal was over, Cen You's phone suddenly rang. After hanging up, he stood up and said, "I need an operation. I have to go first."
Hearing this, Qiu Yuerong picked up her coat and stood up: "I'll take you there."
The two of them left in a hurry. Shu Wanning pulled Wen Yuci's clothes and asked, "Are they married?"
"The wedding will be in May after the Chinese New Year."
"It's New Year's Eve."
Shu Wanning's soft murmur was heard by Wen Yuci. He tilted his head to look at her drooping eyelashes, and Shen Qingchen's words kept appearing in his mind: You like her.
Did he like her? He wasn't sure, but he knew it was true that he had some feelings for her. The pity and care that welled up from the bottom of his heart couldn't be faked.
When we returned to Qianyue Bay, the sun had not yet set, and the rare cold air wasn't that strong. After getting off the car, Shu Wanning stopped and said, "You go back first. I want to take a walk."
"I'll accompany you."
Both of them were wearing black coats, and the setting sun shone on them with a rosy glow. There were no flowers in the garden, but Shu Wanning stood in front of the garden for a long time.
"It's a bit cold, let's go back."
She turned and walked towards the villa, curled up in bed as usual. When she went downstairs the next day, Wen Yuci was no longer in the living room.
She was about to sit down to eat when Wen Yuci's voice suddenly rang out from outside the door: "Shu Wanning."
She turned around and saw Wen Yuci just walking in, holding a bouquet of colorful flowers in her hands, with snowflakes falling on the shoulders of his black coat.
He changed his shoes, brushed off the snowflakes on his shoulders, waved at Shu Wanning, walked up to her and put the flowers in her arms.
"Hmm? Why are you giving me flowers?"
"I saw you standing in the garden for a long time yesterday, and I guessed you wanted to see the flowers, so I went to the flower shop this morning.
I didn’t know what kind of flowers you liked, so I took all the flowers in the flower shop.”
Shu Wanning held the heavy flowers in her arms. She had thought that someone of his status only needed to tell his assistant to buy anything, but she didn't expect that he would go out on a snowy day just to buy her a bouquet of flowers.
"Thank you." Shu Wanning said with a curved lip.
"I'm glad you like it. Let's have breakfast first."
Shu Wanning carefully placed the flowers on the table in the living room. She had never received flowers before and never knew she would like flowers.
Yesterday she stood in the garden, just wondering why the flowers only bloomed in the middle of summer and became bare when winter came.
After dinner, she asked Aunt Jing for a few vases and divided the flowers into two parts, one in the living room and the other in the bedroom.
After hearing Uncle Qiao's reply, Wen Yuci, who was on his way to the company, showed a gentle smile at the corner of his lips, and even the corners of his eyes were stained with a smile.
His phone rang a few times. It was Ye Jiahui asking him to add Shu Wanning to the group chat. He ignored her because he still had to ask her opinion on this matter.
At this time, Shu Wanning was sitting in the living room drinking the nourishing soup that Aunt Jing had cooked for her. Uncle Qiao came in and said, "Madam, your father is outside the gate and said he wants to see you."
Shu Min didn't know from where he got the news that she was in Qianyue Bay, and she was standing outside the door with her head held high.
Shu Wanning put down the soup bowl and said calmly, "Uncle Qiao, have you met Shu Wanning?"
Uncle Qiao, who was as shrewd as a man, immediately shook his head: "I haven't seen it."
Shu Wanning nodded slightly, smiled faintly, and said, "If he doesn't want to leave, then call the police."
