Chapter 48 Puppy Bell
He picked up Wen Wan's vegetable basket outside the jewelry store. He thought Wen Wan was in the jewelry store, so he rushed into the fire scene to find her without hesitation.
Fortunately, the fire was very small at that time, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Silly boy."
Wen Wan raised her hand and touched his face, and a warmth flowed through his limbs.
She felt mixed emotions, scared by the situation at that time, but also moved by Wen En's friendship.
Before this, she had no attachment to this world. She was alone and seemed to have nothing except the values that were incompatible with this place.
And now, there is someone in this world who will go through fire and water for her safety.
"Winn, from now on, sister will take care of you and live a good life."
Wenwan smiled and made a promise.
Winn stared at her with burning eyes, then nodded obediently.

Wen Wan boiled some hot water for Wen En, and he took a full hour to bathe before coming out of the room.
"Come and have dinner. I made your favorite twice-cooked pork." While he was taking a shower, Wen Wan made three dishes and a soup.
She asked Winn to sit down, but found that his hair was still wet.
"You're such a grown-up, and you don't even know to wipe the water clean after washing your hair?"
She was muttering to herself, but her hand had already reached out to take down the cotton cloth from the shelf. She covered his hair with the cotton cloth and carefully rubbed his hair.
Her movements were gentle, and when she approached, she carried the sweet scent of osmanthus.
Wen En saw her exposed white wrist out of the corner of his eye, and his eyes trembled.
"Sister." Wen En called softly, then raised his hand, held her hand, and put a bracelet on her wrist.
Wen Wan was startled and raised her hand to look.
On the wrist, a black rope was woven into an intricate knot, with a small black bell in the middle of the knot.
She shook her hand, and the little bell made a crisp sound.
Wen Wan smiled, "What is this? Did you make it? This bell is pitch black, where did it come from?"
Three questions in a row seemed to stump him, and he didn't know which one to answer first.
He thought for a moment and said, "If you take it with you, I can find you."
Wen Wan didn't believe it. "Such a small bell doesn't make a loud sound. You can't hear it from far away."
"I can hear you," Winn replied stubbornly.
"Okay, even if you can hear me, but..." She shook her wrist exaggeratedly, "You treat me like a kitten or a puppy, and even wear a bell to prevent me from getting lost?"
Moreover, she didn't have the courage to ask a question.
Could it be that this pitch-black bell was really picked up casually from the street?
What if it really was dropped by a kitten or puppy?
But this was the first time her brother gave her a gift, and she couldn't let him down.
Wen En pursed his lips and looked at her aggrievedly, "Sister, I'm afraid that one day I won't be able to find you anymore."
Wen Wan: “…”
Who can resist this aggrieved look?
"I'll wear it!"
Isn't it just a puppy bell? She barks and can even imitate a few dog barks!
As long as my brother is happy.
While eating, Wen Wan suddenly noticed a problem.
She didn't know if it was her illusion, but the boy in front of her still had the same facial features as before, but his skin was no longer sallow and unhealthy, and his whole temperament had an indescribable feeling.
"Yeah, why do I feel like you've suddenly become much more beautiful?"
Winn looked away guiltily, but said with certainty, "Nothing has changed."
"Nothing has changed?" Wen Wan muttered suspiciously.
Winn picked up a piece of meat and put it in her bowl.
Wen Wan smacked her lips a few times, then suddenly realized, "I know why you've become more beautiful!"
Winn's heart skipped a beat and he stared at her with wide eyes.
Wen Wan: "It must be because our food is good. We feed you well and dress you well every day, which makes you fat! Your skin has improved, so you naturally look good!"
Hearing this, Wen En was stunned at first, then he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Wen Wan was still busy making her own beauty plan.
"I think the scar removal medicine Captain Zhou gave you last time is quite effective. The scars on your body have become much lighter. I will ask him for advice later. I will definitely raise our Enen into a handsome young man!"
"By then, our Enen will be the coolest guy on this street!"
"But, even if you become a handsome young man in the future, you can't be a man who uses your beauty to commit crimes. You must be devoted to this young lady."
Her little mouth was chattering, and in the time it took to eat, she was already imagining an infinite future.
Winn listened obediently from beginning to end, but his eyes became more and more gentle.
If life could be like she described, maybe being an ordinary person wouldn't be bad.
"There is no little lady, only sister."
When Winn was collecting the dishes, he said something out of the blue.
Wen Wan was stunned for a moment before she realized what he was responding to.
"Your reflexes are quite long."
Winn just smiled, took the dishes from her hands and went into the kitchen.
*
Three days later, the government office posted a notice saying that the fire in the jewelry store was caused by a few thieves who were caught stealing and knocked over an oil lamp during a fight with the owner.
A master craftsman, four assistants and a petty thief were killed in the fire in the jewelry store.
Some of the thief's accomplices are still at large. The government has listed a reward, and anyone who can provide useful clues will receive a direct reward.
The thief is fake, the murderer is real.
No one knows where that group of ruthless people are hiding.
Since Shen Yu was able to walk again, he rarely stayed in the yard next door. It was said that he had moved back into the military camp.
The only person next door was usually the servant Agui.
I don’t know if Agui had received special instructions from Chen Yu, but he found different ways to send snacks to Wen Wan every day.
Wen Wan was happily eating all kinds of snacks, but Wen En was unhappy.
Early in the morning, before Agui came to deliver snacks, Wen En pulled Wen Wan out the door.
After following him through several turns, we entered a dark alley.
At the end of the alley is a dim sum shop.
Winn walked in familiarly.
Wen En bought some snacks, picked up a piece and handed it to Wen Wan's lips.
Wen Wan took a bite and her eyes lit up.
“It’s delicious!”
"How did you find this store?"
Winn smiled proudly, it was worth it that he searched the whole city to find this store.
He walked beside Wen Wan with the snacks in his hand. After Wen Wan finished one piece, he immediately handed her the next one.
At the corner of the street, a carriage slowly stopped.
Wen Wan didn't care at first, until an acquaintance got off the carriage, she stopped.
"week……"
She raised her hand cheerfully, preparing to greet Shen Yu.
Who knew that before he could shout out, a delicate girl came up to him and spoke to him with a shy face.
The girl was dressed exquisitely, wearing a goose yellow double-breasted long dress, and her loving eyes were all on Shen Yu.
This is... gossip!
