Chapter 73 Finally Home



The next afternoon.

The cruise ship docked at the shore, and Shen Yan walked ahead carrying Chen Yu's bag.

Li Qianqian, who had never appeared before, finally showed her face.

Frustrated, she threw the clothes into Chen Yu's hands. "Here, take your clothes back."

After saying that, she walked past Chen Yu and went ahead. The parents were waiting on the side. Li Mo shook his head speechlessly and told Chen Yu not to take it to heart. That's just how his sister is.

Chen Yu looked at the clothes in her hand; a faint smell of sweat emanated from them.

Just as Shen Yan was about to take the clothes, Chen Yu stopped him.

"No, I don't want it anymore, these clothes smell terrible."

Chen Yu threw the clothes directly into the roadside trash can, calmed herself down, and then got into Chen Kang's car.

Throughout the journey, Li Ziyun kept asking about the events of the past few days.

Chen Yu answered them one by one.

However, she did not reveal Li Qianqian's evil deeds.

The car sped home, and Chen Yu dragged her tired body back inside.

Fortunately, there was no homework, otherwise Chen Yu would have been exhausted sooner or later.

Lying in bed, she thought about how she used to work like a beast of burden, but she wasn't this tired.

Shen Yan packed his things and put Chen Yu's dirty clothes into the washing machine.

Only after finishing all this did I go upstairs to rest.

Just as Chen Yu was about to take a nap, her phone, which was placed next to her pillow, vibrated.

She opened her phone and saw a message from Ma Qi, asking Chen Yu if she dared to go to the other side of the school tomorrow.

Chen Yu glanced at Ma Qi's WeChat Moments, which showed a single line.

She doesn't even want to reply to messages; it's foolish to bother with someone like that.

Ma Qi stared intently at his phone screen, waiting for Chen Yu's reply, but to his surprise, the message disappeared without a trace.

She never received a reply from Chen Yu.

night.

Chen Yu had a hearty meal, but there were still several days before school started.

With nothing else to do, she decided to go downstairs for a walk.

But she didn't want to walk alone, so she eventually set her sights on Shen Yan.

"Chen Yan, shall we go downstairs for a walk?"

Caught off guard by Chen Yu's sudden question, Shen Yan nodded instinctively.

After he finished washing the dishes, the two went downstairs.

Chen Yu originally intended to take a walk in the neighborhood, but unexpectedly, the two ended up walking out of the neighborhood and strolled into a park.

A little boy lunged straight at Shen Yan.

Shen Yan caught the little boy who almost fell.

The little boy's mother immediately rushed over, scolded the child, and then apologized to Shen Yan.

This little incident passed quickly.

Chen Yu and Shen Yan walked onto the bridge.

An older man bumped into Chen Yu from behind, knocking Chen Yu's phone to the ground.

But the man didn't seem to notice and was still talking to his companions.

Chen Yu picked up the phone somewhat angrily; it was the phone Chen Kang had just returned, and the screen was completely cracked.

She walked up to the man and said, "Brother, don't you watch where you're going? You've smashed my phone."

"Hey, little girl, don't talk nonsense."

"This is where you hit me. Didn't you feel anything when you bumped into me?"

The uncle listened to Chen Yu's question, looked at her face and then at his phone, and suddenly laughed. He ignored Chen Yu and continued walking.

Chen Yu also saw the ill intentions in the uncle's eyes. Although she was very unhappy, she didn't dare to mess with this kind of person.

Shen Yan took her phone and glanced at it. "I'll go find him for you."

"Hey, no, never mind, I'll just get a new screen."

Chen Yu decided to pay for the phone screen repair herself, and Shen Yan saw the hesitation in Chen Yu's eyes.

She went up to the man and found him.

"You broke my sister's phone, and you think you can just leave like that?"

The middle-aged man looked up at Chen Yan with annoyance, "Are you done yet? I said no, and that's final. How can someone so young be trying to extort money?"

"Yeah, you look like a high school student. Is your family really that poor that you have to send two students out to scam money?"

The man's words to his friends became increasingly harsh, and some even whispered behind his back that if Chen Yu spent the night with him, he would be completely convinced and would pay her off.

Shen Yan punched the man in the face. Chen Yu stared wide-eyed at the scene before her; it was the first time she had ever seen Shen Yan so angry.

But there were too many people on the other side, and Shen Yan couldn't fight them all by himself. He was almost pinned to the bottom and beaten. Chen Yu wanted to call the police but didn't have a phone, so he could only step forward and push away the people beating Shen Yan.

But Shen Yan seemed to feel no pain at all, continuing to punch the man in the face.

The man screamed in pain.

In the end, it was the kind-hearted older brother who separated Shen Yan from the old man.

"I...I want to call the police!"

The old man was so angry that his hand was trembling as he pressed the emergency call button.

"Neither of you are leaving here! I'm telling you! You're in big trouble!"

Chen Yu stood in front of Shen Yan, saying, "I want to see just how serious this matter is!"

The police arrived quickly; they were Chen Kang's men. They immediately recognized Chen Yu and Shen Yan, as this area was their responsibility.

"Xiaoyu, Xiaoyan, what are you doing here?"

"Uncle Zhang, this guy not only broke my phone and refused to pay for it, but he also hit my brother."

Chen Yu immediately put on a wronged expression and even grabbed Shen Yan's hand to show them.

"Let's go, let's take them back to the police station!"

Chen Kang, who had originally planned to rest at home, immediately went out again after receiving the call.

When he arrived at the police station and saw the heavy armor in his hand and the weeping Chen Yu, a fire ignited within him.

"What happened?"

"Director Chen."

The subordinate recounted the whole story. The man even tried to make fun of Chen Yu and Shen Yan, but there were security cameras in the park. The police reviewed the footage and found that it was the man who knocked Chen Yu's phone away.

They not only failed to pay compensation but also put the two children in a difficult position.

The testimonies of Chen Yu and Shen Yan clearly state how these grown men spoke about their daughter.

He was so angry he almost beat the man up, but Chen Yu stopped him.

"Dad, calm down."

Chen Yu calmed Chen Kang down and then took Shen Yan to have his wounds treated.

She didn't go back until everything was done; she really couldn't go out these past few days.

An unexpected accident occurs as soon as you step outside.

Back home, Chen Yu looked at Shen Yan with some guilt, and after a long pause, she finally apologized to him.

Why are you saying sorry? You didn't do anything wrong.

Faced with Shen Yan's questioning, Chen Yu didn't know how to answer for a moment. She only felt that she was the one who had caused Shen Yan to get hurt again.

"I...."

Chen Yu was speechless for a long time.

"It's okay, I'll go with you to get the screen replaced tomorrow. It's getting late, go to sleep."

Shen Yan sent Chen Yu back to her room, but fearing she wouldn't have anything to play on her phone, he gave her the iPad as well.

Back in her room, Chen Yu was in a bad mood; she always managed to hurt Shen Yan.
