☆, Chapter 36 The Secret Plans of the Three Shu Family Members
Zhao Wei slowly walked over to Shu Xin with a kind and gentle smile on his face, but his eyes were fixed on Shu Wanning.
"Ningning, have you become unfamiliar with your sister since you haven't been home for so long? Mom bought a lot of things for your room.
Someone just visited. Do you want to go upstairs and take a look?"
Zhao Wei's voice was neither too loud nor too soft, just enough for people around him to hear.
Shu Wanning understood that she said this on purpose for others to hear.
Although the people around them were holding wine glasses and seemed to be talking to people around them, their eyes were all looking at them.
Shu Wanning had already seen through Zhao Wei's little thoughts.
She looked at Zhao Wei, then pointed to the storage room not far behind everyone.
A faint smile appeared on the corner of her lips and she said, "Isn't my room there?"
Zhao Wei didn't expect Shu Wanning to say that, and his face instantly turned ugly.
She looked at Shu Wanning awkwardly, with a hint of blame in her tone:
"What are you talking about, kid? I've already cleaned up your room on the second floor and even had it cleaned..."
Before she could finish her words, Shu Wanning interrupted her: "Really? That's really hard work, Auntie.
But I still prefer the utility room. After all, I’ve lived there since I was a child, so I’m used to it.”
Shu Wanning leaned one hand on the sofa. Thinking of the memories of the past, she couldn't help but pinch the edge of the sofa hard.
Noticing her movements, Wen Yuci calmly placed his hand on her cold hand.
Feeling his warmth, Shu Wanning met Zhao Wei's gaze again and spoke:
“Why don’t we all go to the storage room and take a look. There should be a lot of my things in there.
After seeing this, you should know that this is my room."
Seeing that Zhao Wei's smile could no longer be maintained, Shu Wanning bent his lower lip and continued:
"By the way, there are traces of my blood on the wall of that room. If you don't believe me, you can go and see for yourself."
Before Shu Wanning came back, Zhao Wei took people to the newly decorated room to establish a good image of a foster mother.
But she didn't expect Shu Wanning to be so tough and tell the truth.
Wen Yuci, who had remained silent, raised his eyes to look at Shu Min, and slowly smiled at his panicked gaze: "Mr. Shu, why are you sweating so much?"
Shu Min: "I'm just a little hot."
"Really?" Wen Yuci held Shu Wanning's hand in his and played with it, with a smile on his lips, and said in a deep voice:
“I’ve been hearing a lot lately about my wife over the years.
Mr. Shu has time to host a birthday party, why don't you think about how to give me a reasonable explanation."
Shu Min raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead and nodded repeatedly in response. Seeing him like this, Wen Yuci's smile deepened.
He picked up a glass of wine, took a sip and said with a smile: "Everyone have fun, don't let Mr. Shu's careful planning go to waste."
He put down his wine glass, picked up the chocolate beside him, peeled it and fed it to Shu Wanning, but she shook her head and refused, "It's too sweet. I don't like sweets."
This was the first time he heard her talk about her preferences. Wen Yuci nodded to indicate that he had taken note of it, and then put the chocolate into his mouth.
The servants brought wine again. Shu Wanning randomly chose a glass from the tray. Zhao Wei in the corner showed a triumphant smile.
Shu Wanning shook the glass of wine in her hand, her red lips slightly raised, and the corners of her eyes slightly raised, looking very much like the villain in the novel.
"Wen Yuci, do you think this wine is adulterated with something?"
"What's mixed in it?"
Shu Wanning met his extremely arrogant gaze and whispered, "Go ask Zhao Wei, she must know."
Wen Yuci snatched the wine glass from her hand and poured it into the cakes on the table. He leaned close to her and whispered, "Are you mentally prepared?"
"Um?"
Shu Wanning's doubts were real. Wen Yuci did not explain, but turned around and nodded at Yan Hao.
Shu Min and Zhao Wei were already standing in the middle of the banquet hall and starting to speak, while Shu Xin stood aside with a shy look on her face.
To put it nicely, this banquet was a birthday party, but to put it bluntly, it was a plan by the Shu family to propose marriage.
"Today is my daughter Shuxin's birthday..."
Shu Min was introducing Shu Xin, and the big screen behind him was showing Shu Xin's latest photos. But when Shu Xin stood in the center, the picture on the screen suddenly changed.
"Put this medicine in the wine and find a way to give it to Shu Wanning.
Then I'll trick Wen Yuci into bringing her to the room on the second floor. I'll make arrangements for the man inside..."
"What's going on! Turn off the screen immediately!"
Zhao Wei yelled in a state of despair. She thought her plan was flawless, but she didn't expect that it was seen clearly from the very beginning.
Shu Min frowned and wanted to turn off the screen, but Yan He had already stopped him.
All that was left was the unreserved gossip of the people around them, trampling on the Shu family's reputation.
Shu Wanning lowered her head and smiled self-deprecatingly. She had originally thought that such despicable tactics would only appear in books and on TV, but she had never expected that they were happening right next to her.
She shifted her gaze to the screen that was constantly playing, and the video revealed an unfamiliar room. It was the new room Zhao Wei had built for her.
She adjusted her skirt and tilted her head to look at Wen Yuci: "I want to go upstairs and take a look."
Wen Yuci nodded and pulled her to her feet. Zhao Wei and Shu Min immediately ran up to them and explained humbly:
"This is a misunderstanding. Don't be angry, Mr. Wen. I will definitely find out what's going on!"
Zhao Wei stepped forward, took Shu Wanning's hand, and choked up, saying, "Ningning, listen to your mother's explanation!"
Shu Wanning withdrew his hand, Wen Yuci raised his hand and waved it lightly, and Yan Hao immediately brought people to stop the three people from the Shu family.
He pulled Shu Wanning upstairs, followed by a group of people who wanted to find out the truth.
Standing in front of the door, Shu Wanning's hands were shaking as she tried to open it. Wen Yuci reached out, held her hand, and whispered, "I'll stay with you."
After opening the door, Shu Wanning's eyes were covered by Wen Yuci's hands before she even looked up.
He leaned close to her ear and whispered, "Don't look, it's too dirty."
The man in the room was lying naked on the bed, and there were a shocking number of black, unidentified objects beside the bed.
The people following behind him covered their lips and dared not speak loudly, for fear that they would offend Wen Yuci as soon as they opened their mouths. Yan Hao stood beside him with a frown on his face.
Wen Yuci put his arm around Shu Wanning's shoulders and turned her around, coaxing her softly, "You and Yan Hao go back to the car first, I'll be there soon."
"what are you up to?"
Wen Yuci glanced at Yan Hao, and Yan Hao immediately closed the door.
At the same time, Wen Yuci withdrew his hand and smiled at Shu Wanning to comfort her: "I'm just venting your anger."
