☆, Chapter 32: Wen. Legal. Yu. Rogue. Resignation
Some people once accused her of being ungrateful, but since suffering had not befallen them, they naturally did not understand what empathy meant.
For so many years, she has been tortured every day in the Shu family. Being able to escape has been her long-cherished wish.
Wen Yuci gently fiddled with the cup, a trace of heartache welling up from the bottom of his heart. His eyes looked at her with a much softer look. He picked up the chopsticks, picked up the food on the plate and put it into his mouth.
The food tasted good. When he picked up another dish, he suddenly looked up at Shu Wanning and said, "Old house, we can go again after the New Year."
Shu Wanning shook her head: "Grandma needs company."
He silently changed the serving chopsticks and picked up a few pieces of meat for Shu Wanning. His voice was low and gentle: "Mrs. Wen is so kind and her cooking is so delicious. It seems that I have really made a fortune."
Shu Wanning paused as she picked up her chopsticks and whispered, "I didn't suffer any loss either."
The two enjoyed dinner in silence. After the meal, Wen Yuci got up to wash the dishes. Shu Wanning wiped the table and slowly walked towards him.
Sensing her footsteps, Wen Yuci turned back and leaned against the pool, casually wiping his hands with a towel as he smiled at her: "Want to sneak attack me?"
Shu Wanning's eyes curved slightly, and she walked closer to him step by step. The distance between them was getting closer and closer. Wen Yuci didn't move, but just looked down at her with a smile in his eyes.
Seeing her close to him, seeing her hands on the kitchen counter, seeing himself being held in her arms.
He reached out to hold her waist, his throat moving slightly, but Shu Wanning turned her head and picked up her cell phone from the table.
There was a hint of loss in his eyes. Shu Wanning shook his phone and chuckled: "What is Mr. Wen thinking about?"
He couldn't help but lightly touch his cheek with the tip of his tongue, and a laugh escaped from his chest. He looked at the slightly provocative person in front of him, stretched out his long arm, put his arm around her waist and brought her into his arms.
He lowered his head to close the distance between them, looked at Shu Wanning's shocked expression, curled his lips and asked, "What is Mrs. Wen thinking about now?"
The words "Mrs. Wen" seemed to carry an ambiguous tone when they came out of his mouth. Shu Wanning turned her head, raised her hand and pushed his chest and said, "Let go, hooligan."
"rogue?"
He hugged her tighter and whispered in her ear, "Mrs. Wen, it's legal."
"Wen Yuci!"
It's over, I've pissed people off.
He let go of his hand, his upturned eyes showing his good mood, but he did not forget to comfort the person in front of him: "Okay, Mrs. Wen, I have to clean up the kitchen, you should go out."
He held Shu Wanning's shoulders, helped her turn around, and pushed her forward gently. Shu Wanning chuckled with her back to him. When she walked out of the kitchen, she looked back at him busying around.
…
After a good night's sleep, the next morning, when Shu Wanning got up, Wen Yuci had already prepared breakfast. He handed Shu Wanning the hot milk and asked, "Are you feeling better?"
Shu Wanning nodded: "I don't have a fever anymore, I just still have a cough."
Wen Yuci: "Eat first. There are a lot of people in the old house today. Tell me if you feel unwell."
The company has already started its annual holiday, and Yan Hao has also started to rest, but when he saw the driver, Shu Wanning was still a little confused.
"Isn't he taking a holiday?"
Driver: "Madam, my parents died when I was a teenager. It was Premier Wen who saved me, so every year I go to the old house for New Year's Eve dinner."
Shu Wanning looked in the mirror inside the car, then turned his head to look at Wen Yuci and asked, "What should I do today?"
"You can do whatever you want."
"Um?"
Wen Yuci curved his lips and raised his hand to tidy up her hair: "I have the final say in the Wen family, you don't have to worry about others."
Shu Wanning nodded in understanding: "So, it's okay for me to flip the table while I'm eating?"
Wen Yuci nodded gently: "Well, I can still say that you did a good job."
Inside the old house, Grandma Wen sat in her room, looking towards the door and sighing deeply. The servant beside her patted her on the back and asked, "What's wrong with you?"
"Yu Ci and Wan Ning are coming back today, I'm afraid they will make things difficult for Wan Ning."
"Don't worry, old lady, the young master is here."
When Wen Yuci took Shu Wanning into the old house, there were several servants busy in the yard. When they walked into the main hall, only Wen Yuanguo and Wen Yuming were drinking tea.
Wen Yuming: "Brother! Sister-in-law! You are finally here!"
He poured two cups of tea and placed them on the table. Wen Yuanguo glanced at the two of them and said unhappily, "The elders at home are all here, why are you so late?"
Wen Yuci took Shu Wanning's hand and sat down. He took a sip of tea and raised his eyes: "You came early, didn't you also want to wait for me to come back?
"Hey, Yu Ci is back!"
A female voice came from upstairs. After coming downstairs, she kept looking at Shu Wanning and raised her voice deliberately to ask, "Who is this?"
Wen Yuci: "My wife."
He pulled Shu Wanning's hand and said, "The second child of the Wen family, Wen Yuanshan."
Shu Wanning: "Hello, auntie."
She looked at Wen Yuci's aunt, who was about forty-five years old, well-maintained, wearing a bright pink dress and heavy makeup, like a harmful witch in a cartoon.
Wen Yuanshan snorted: "She looks good, but I didn't expect my good nephew to judge people by appearance!"
Shu Wanning understood what she meant and lowered his head to drink tea without intending to speak. However, Wen Yuci's voice came to his ears: "It's not your aunt's turn to comment on my wife."
"Yu Ci, how can you, a junior, speak to your aunt like that?"
Yang Man walked down the stairs. Wen Yuci glanced at Wen Yuming in the corner and swallowed back what he was about to say.
Wen Yuming pulled Yang Man aside with a stern face and said unhappily, "Could you please stop talking!"
"How dare you talk to me, you bastard!"
Wen Yuming pursed his lips and didn't want to argue with her. He quickened his pace and walked to Wen Yuci's side and stood obediently.
There were footsteps outside the door. As the three of them walked into the house, Wen Yuci approached Shu Wanning and whispered to her, "This is my third uncle Wen Yuansen, his wife Lupei, and my sister Wen Yutian."
After Wen Yuansen entered the room, he smiled and nodded slightly in the direction of Wen Yuci and the others. After receiving a response, he walked towards Wen Yuanguo.
Lu Pei took her daughter to Shu Wanning and handed her the gift box with a smile: "I heard that Yu Ci got married. This is our family's gift."
Shu Wanning stood up, thinking that Wen Yuci's attitude towards them was quite good, so she lowered her head and waved her hand to refuse: "Third Aunt, you are too polite."
Seeing this, Wen Yuci stood up, took Shu Wanning's hand and went to receive the gift, then nodded and smiled at Lu Pei: "Since it is a kind gift from Third Aunt, then we will accept it."
Shu Wanning: "Thank you, Uncle and Aunt."
Wen Yutian, who was silent on the side, took a step forward, looked at the two of them timidly, and said in a low voice: "Brother, sister-in-law, I wish you a happy wedding."
Wen Yuci nodded and asked, "Aunt San, are you used to living abroad?"
"It's good. Thank you for helping Yutian find a school."
