Chapter 159 The Best Horror Film is Born
Yan Buyu held her phone and read the message over and over again.
Wu Xiaoyang is dead.
Driving under the influence of alcohol.
'I want them dead'
The tattooed man's casual remark suddenly popped into her mind.
Could all of this have anything to do with him?
Could it really be the underworld?
Feeling very uneasy, I quickly changed my clothes and went downstairs.
“Baby.” Lan Xinyan got up from the sofa, walked quickly to her, took her hand with a worried expression, and looked her up and down.
"Why didn't you wake your mother when you came back yesterday? Your uncle only told me this morning. Weren't you scared? Did you have nightmares again last night?"
Yan Buyu was taken aback for a moment, then pouted and leaned against Xiangxiang's mother. "It was nothing, and I didn't want you to worry, but now that you've said that, I feel so wronged."
Lan Xinyan was heartbroken and stroked her daughter's long hair, "That's because she saw her mother, my silly child."
"Mommy, hug me." Yan Buyu hugged Lan Xinyan tightly, rubbing her neck with her eyes closed. "I want to be pampered by you."
Lan Xinyan was both amused and exasperated. "Alright, alright, go ahead and act cute. Go sit on the sofa and act cute."
The mother and daughter hugged quietly on the sofa, their hearts completely soothed by the love between them. Only then did they look up and ask, "Where are my older brother and brother? Where did Uncle go?"
"Have you seen the news?" Lan Xinyan asked.
"Hmm." After saying that, Yan Buyu took out his phone and showed the news article he had saved.
"Yanzhou and Yunqi went to the company, partly to handle company matters and partly to continue investigating the person from last night."
Without uttering a word, she voiced her concerns, "Will Wu Xiaoyang's death implicate our family? Will Uncle be in trouble?"
“Oh dear, we don’t believe in Uncle’s abilities,” Shen Zhiye said, having just come down from the study and overheard the mother and daughter’s conversation. He pretended to be sad as he walked over, sat down on the other side of his wife, and leaned against Lan Xinyan’s shoulder. “Wife, what should we do?”
Lan Xinyan shrugged with a smile, "Get down here."
“No,” Shen Zhiye said, snuggling closer to her like a child. “I just won’t. My daughter doesn’t believe in my abilities.”
“Then show the child your strength,” Lan Xinyan said, tickled by his words. “What’s the use of acting cute with me?”
Seeing Shen Zhiye's expression, Yan Buyu felt relieved.
If Uncle had something on his mind, he would be practicing Tai Chi by the fish pond in the garden right now.
“We haven’t fed our fish yet,” Yan Buyu said with a smile as he stood up. “Uncle, keep acting cute with Mom, she likes it.”
"I don't like it," Lan Xinyan said, pushing Shen Zhiye away.
Shen Zhiye hugged her even tighter, "Our daughter can see through your pretense, so don't be shy, wife."
He quietly and happily scattered fish bait by the fishpond.
No wonder people say that when the relationship between husband and wife is good, the happiness index of children will rise sharply.
Whenever she saw her mother and uncle looking so happy, she felt indescribably happy.
Consequently, I also began to yearn for love and marriage.
Also, the fish at home are getting fatter and fatter; she's really amazing.
She took out her phone, snapped a few photos of the plump fish, and sent them to Si Jingxu: "Brother Jingxu, look at my fish, aren't they fat and beautiful?"
Si Jingxu replied quickly.
Jingxu's brother: [Yeah, my girlfriend is really amazing.]
Jingxu's brother: [Have you slept enough? Did you sleep well? Did you have another nightmare?]
(Silent response: [Sleeping well, what are you doing?])
Normally, if I text him, he'll either call or video chat with me long ago. It's really unusual that he's texting me today.
The next second, she received a photo.
The conference room was filled with people sitting on both sides of an extra-long conference table, and someone was giving a report opposite them.
Then another photo.
Si Jingxu's selfie.
Dressed in a formal suit, with a feather brooch pinned to his dark suit jacket, he gazed affectionately at the camera, a slight smile playing on his lips.
Silence: ...
It was clearly an important meeting, and how could he, sitting in the main seat, openly slack off?
Silence: [Attend the meeting properly; no slacking off]
Jingxu's brother: [Received]
She remained silent and did not disturb him further.
Less than five minutes later, in the three-person group chat of the "Anti-Brother Alliance," Qin Nianke went crazy, sending more than a dozen messages.
Coco: [Aaaaaah!! Oh my god!! Did I overreact? My cousin's dating!!!]
Without saying a word, his eyelids twitched.
Then Qin Nianke posted a screenshot from Si Jingxu's WeChat Moments.
He took a picture of himself taking notes seriously and captioned it: "My girlfriend told me to focus on the meeting and make money to raise fish."
He remained silent as the sun's rays throbbed.
Qin Nianke continued.
Coco: [Help! What kind of decent person would want my cousin?!]
Coco: [Who would date him? That would be a death sentence!]
Coco: [I didn't hear that he went on a blind date. Where did this amazing guy come from?]
Coco: [This is terrifying! This is terrifying! The best horror movie of the year is born!]
Coco: [Aaaaaaah!!! My cousin's peacock-like display is terrifying! He might as well have just poked my eyes out!]
Sweetie Girl: [First of all, don't get excited. Secondly, is your cousin's girlfriend a man or a woman? Isn't he supposed to be indifferent to women?]
Coco: [That's why it's so scary!! His girlfriend must be scary too!]
Coco: [No way! His girlfriend is definitely after his money! After all, no normal person would dare say a word to my cousin.]
Sweet Girl: [+1]
He remained silent, his mind buzzing.
Without saying anything, I opened my Moments.
I actually saw Si Jingxu's photo.
The comments section below was just as lively as a small group of three people.
Brother Long: [You, me, sigh... I suddenly feel like chopping something down]
Young Master He: [Is this a tacit official announcement?]
Maple in the Wind: [Xiaoxiao still blocked me, can we please stop showing off our love?]
The world's cutest silent older brother: [Let's have tea sometime]
Si Jingxu replied to each one.
Yan Buyu blushed and was too embarrassed to continue reading.
The phone suddenly rang; it was a video call from Qin Nianke.
Yan Buyu's heart skipped a beat, as if he had been caught doing something wrong.
She made up her mind and decided to confess to her best friend.
Press the connect button.
"Buyu, I'm all packed and ready to leave. Do you have anything to do right now? Can we move up an hour? I need to complain to you face to face, I can't hold it in any longer!"
Yan Buyu breathed a sigh of relief. Nian Ke was still unaware. "Ah, okay, I'm fine too. Let's go out now."
Inside the villa, Shen Zhiye was making his wife happy when he saw his daughter come in. He quickly waved her over and said, "Buyu, there's an auction in Hong Kong next month. Your mother and I are talking about taking you to see it. Haven't you ever been to an auction before?"
