Li Ziyun took Shen Yan downstairs for a walk. The doctor said he needed to move around to help with his recovery.
"Shen Yan, is there anything else that's bothering you?"
Shen Yan carefully examined himself and said, "He's almost fully recovered, but walking is still a bit difficult."
"The doctor said you need to move around more so you can recover faster. Try to walk around more these next few days."
"Okay, Aunt Yun."
The two walked around the neighborhood for a long time and spent some time in the sun with Shen Yan before going home to rest. Chen Yu sat on the sofa playing on her phone, and Li Ziyun frowned. "Yu Yu, you've been playing on your phone a lot lately."
"Okay, Mom," Chen Yu replied, without even looking up.
"Have you even reviewed anything? If there's anything you don't understand, ask Brother Shen Yan."
"Okay, okay."
Chen Yu's reply was somewhat impatient. Li Ziyun sighed helplessly, helped Shen Yan to sit down on the sofa, and then turned and went upstairs. Shen Yan sat next to Chen Yu somewhat awkwardly. He originally wanted to go upstairs to his room, but Li Ziyun led him to the sofa, so he didn't know what to say.
He glanced at Chen Yu out of the corner of his eye. She looked very serious. Shen Yan couldn't resist his curiosity and looked at Chen Yu's phone screen. He then discovered that Chen Yu was reading a novel. The novel was about love and romance. Shen Yan blushed and looked away after reading a passage. Chen Yu noticed this action.
"You want to see it too?"
"I...no...I don't want to see it, cough cough."
Looking at Shen Yan's shy expression, Chen Yu realized it was the first time she had ever seen him like this, and it was rather...adorable? A mischievous thought arose in her mind.
"Just tell me if you want to watch it, and I'll recommend it to you."
"I...."
Shen Yan was so shocked by Chen Yu's words that he didn't know what to say. Since he had forgotten that Chen Yu was always like this, he simply remained silent and stared blankly at the TV screen.
Chen Yu picked up the remote and turned on the TV. "Watching a black screen is so boring, change the channel yourself." She handed the remote to Chen Yan and continued reading the novel on her phone.
She stumbled upon this novel while having lunch. The story was about a woman who would desperately try to win back her husband, and coincidentally, it perfectly matched her current situation. She thought she could learn from the female lead's path to winning back her husband, so she read it very carefully.
As Chen Yan scrolled through the remote control, Chen Yu's words kept replaying in his mind. His face visibly flushed red. How could he possibly want to read these romance novels? His priority right now was definitely studying.
Seeing this scene, Li Ziyun finally felt much better. It was best for the two of them to be together harmoniously. She took out her phone, snapped a photo, and sent it to Chen Kang.
"Yu Yu, Mom is going out to buy groceries. Keep an eye on Brother Chen Yan."
"Okay, Mom. Be careful on the road."
Li Ziyun looked at her daughter, unsure whether to scold or praise her. The girl didn't even look up, but she knew that saying something caring would make her unable to vent her anger.
night.
After finishing her meal, Chen Yu planned to go back to her room to lie down for a while, but Chen Kang called her back. He took Chen Yu to the study. During the meal, Chen Yu felt that Chen Kang was acting strangely, with an inexplicable seriousness.
Chen Kang sat in the chair. "Chen Yu, tell your father, did you instigate Jiang Yang to do this?"
"What do you mean by that, Dad?"
"Jiang Yang's parents said that Jiang Yang was instructed by you to attack Shen Yan, and that you often dragged them along to bully Shen Yan."
Chen Yu's heart began to race. She hadn't expected Jiang Yang to betray her. For a moment, she felt speechless. She couldn't deny that she had done many of these things, but this time it definitely wasn't her doing.
“Dad, I admit that I did ask them to bully Shen Yan before, but this time it has nothing to do with me.”
"Chen Yu, what have I told you before? Shen Yan is your brother, you can't do this..."
Chen Kang began a long period of education. He never expected that Chen Yu would actually bully Shen Yan in places where he and Li Ziyun couldn't see. However, Shen Yan never said a word. Thinking of Shen Yan, he felt sorry for his former comrade-in-arms.
“This has nothing to do with me. I’ve made that very clear.”
"Enough!"
Looking at Chen Yu's stubborn face, which showed no sign of admitting wrongdoing, Chen Kang picked up a stick and hit Chen Yu. Li Ziyun pushed open the study door and walked in, saying, "Speak properly! Why are you suddenly hitting the child?"
"You've spoiled her too much, look at what she's become!"
"I spoil her? Chen Kang, are you being reasonable?"
Li Ziyun was also angered by what was said. Chen Kang's temper was such that he would act recklessly when he got angry, and Chen Yu's temper was exactly the same as Chen Kang's.
Shen Yan listened to the commotion upstairs, including Chen Yu's crying, and frowned in annoyance.
"Don't protect her, I'm going to teach her a lesson this time."
"Chen Kang! Can't you talk to the child properly?"
Li Ziyun roared, and the whole room fell silent. Shen Yan slowly moved to the doorway.
"Uncle Kang, Chen Yu didn't let them bully me."
The three people in the room were stunned by Shen Yan's appearance, especially Chen Yu. She never expected Shen Yan to say such a thing. His words were a way of helping her. She admitted to bullying Shen Yan before, but she would never admit it this time.
"Shen Yan, don't help Chen Yu. You'll hurt her if you do."
"Uncle Kang, Chen Yu really didn't bully me."
Chen Kang sighed helplessly. He put down the stick in his hand, his eyes full of helplessness. He knew that Shen Yan was only saying that to help Chen Yu. He really didn't know how to educate Chen Yu. It was definitely not good to let him continue like this.
“Tell the child nicely that this is not a police station, and don’t use your torture methods to extract confessions.”
Li Ziyun pulled Chen Yu out from behind her. Her face, streaked with tears, was stubborn. "It's okay, Yu Yu's dad won't dare to hit you."
Chen Yu wiped away her tears. She looked at Chen Kang's worried face, thought for a while, and then explained. She solemnly declared that she would no longer bully Shen Yan and was willing to get along with him. Hearing Chen Yu say this, Li Ziyun was naturally happy, but Shen Yan was somewhat skeptical.
“Yu Yu, you need to understand that you and Shen Yan are no different from siblings. You can’t treat him like this.” Chen Kang looked at Chen Yu with earnest concern. He hoped that Shen Yan and Chen Yu could develop feelings for each other. After all, Shen Yan is so outstanding. It’s like the saying goes, “The closer you are, the better.” In the current situation, it has become a luxury for Chen Yu to get along peacefully with Shen Yan.
Chen Yu didn't say anything, she just kept nodding.
Chen Kang also said he was tired and told Chen Yu to go back to her room to reflect. He confiscated her phone and said she had to study hard for the next two days. Chen Yu did not object. She lowered her head and went back to her room. When she brushed past Shen Yan, her heart still couldn't help but beat faster.
