Chapter 29 Did you sleep well last night?



Shen Huai'an never shows mercy to those who betray him; there are many ways to punish such people, so he doesn't need to lift a finger.

However, looking at Li Jiyan's expression now, he suddenly had other ideas.

Li Jiyan lost an arm, and he cried out in pain while clutching his injured arm. Zheng Hu then kicked him in the back. Zheng Hu was tall and strong, and with one kick, he knocked Li Jiyan to the ground. Li Jiyan begged for mercy, tears streaming down his face.

"Mr. Shen, please forgive me and give me another chance. I will try my best to do things for you. I know a lot about Shen Taimin. Please, spare me this time."

It must be admitted that Li Jiyan is really smart; he knows how to use his own value to negotiate with Shen Huai'an.

Shen Huai'an, with a cigarette dangling from his mouth, raised his hand to signal to the others.

Zheng Hu and his two men slowly withdrew from the study.

Now only the two of them were left in the room. Shen Huai'an picked up his cane from beside the sofa and slowly stood up on tiptoe.

"Okay, tell me about my older brother."

Upon hearing this, Li Jiyan immediately became excited. He seized the last opportunity, his eyes lighting up. He crawled slowly on all fours to Shen Huai'an's feet.

“I know Shim Tae-min…”

Li Jiyan, as if grasping at a last straw, spilled everything he knew. He knew Shen Huai'an's temperament; as long as he was of use, Shen Huai'an wouldn't touch him.

Shen Huai'an heard what Li Jiyan said, but his expression didn't change at all. In his eyes, Shen Taimin was indeed capable of doing those shameful things.

"In Jiangcheng, no one can bring down Chen Er."

Even though he's crippled and disliked in the Shen family, he's still alive and still Shen Er. Trying to remove him from the group is just wishful thinking.

The dirty tricks and methods Shim Tae-min used were utterly boring.

Doing things sloppily will eventually lead to big trouble.

Li Jiyan was unusually talkative today, saying some shocking things.

Looking down at Li Jiyan lying at his feet, Shen Huai'an saw that Li Jiyan's fawning and obsequious behavior was just like that of a dog.

Calling him a dog is an insult to dogs; at least dogs are loyal.

Shen Huai'an now has other plans regarding Li Jiyan.

Instead of getting rid of Li Jiyan directly, he kept him by his side as before.

Then, pretending nothing had happened, she continued to face Li Jiyan normally.

Shen Huai'an sat in his study, staring blankly out the window.

Dawn will break in five hours.

Five hours is enough to do a lot of things, and for him, the night always gets his nerves excited.

Shen Huai'an turned the surveillance camera back on.

After taking a shower, Lin Wanxing couldn't fall asleep. He lay on the soft bed, staring blankly at the ceiling, counting ducks.

He counted for a long time before he felt a little sleepy; the nightmare he had just experienced was truly terrifying.

He silently prayed that he would stop having nightmares.

For Lin Wanxing, his memories of the Chen family were a nightmare he could never forget. His father's indifference, his stepmother's and his sister's mockery were things he could never forget.

However, by a twist of fate, he managed to escape the Chen family.

The repeated changes to the marriage agreement ironically turned out to be a blessing in disguise for him.

My second brother is really good to him.

He always treated me with such gentleness, which made me feel an unprecedented warmth. My second brother was like a prince who saved me; he was such a wonderful being.

Lin Wanxing couldn't help but smile when she thought of Shen Huai'an.

Lin Wanxing fell asleep without realizing it, and this time he didn't have a nightmare.

He woke up a little late in the morning, and Lin Wanxing quickly put on her clothes and went downstairs.

Shen Huai'an always ate breakfast at a fixed time, and the kitchen staff would get up very early to prepare it.

At this time, Shen Huai'an was already eating while listening to the morning news.

Lin Wanxing came downstairs wearing slippers and a set of loungewear.

Shen Huai'an looked up at him, then asked him gently, "Did you sleep well last night?"

Lin Wanxing's hair stood on end. He obediently walked to the dining table, pulled out a chair, and sat down opposite Shen Huai'an.

"I slept very well, and I even had a sweet dream."

He spoke to Shen Huai'an without any reservations.

He glanced down at the dishes on the table; there were his favorite steamed buns.

"What kind of beautiful dream was it? Would you like to share it with me?"

Lin Wanxing was eating a xiaolongbao when he suddenly stopped. His eyelids twitched, and it took him a long time to swallow the bun in his mouth.

His dazed look was adorable, but Shen Huai'an wouldn't let him off the hook, pressing him for an answer: "Can't you tell me?"

Lin Wanxing's dream was indeed a little embarrassing to talk about, because he dreamed that he and his second brother were kissing.

He bit his lip and remained silent, his fair face slowly turning red. "I'm sorry, I can't tell my second brother about this."

"It's okay, I was just asking casually. If Xingxing doesn't want to say, then don't say."

Shen Huai'an wouldn't pry into things; his perfectly timed thoughtfulness was hard not to like. He would respect Lin Wanxing's opinion, and wouldn't continue to ask if Lin Wanxing didn't want to talk about it.

"Eat more, being too thin is bad for your health," Shen Huai'an said, easily changing the subject.

Lin Wanxing's face remained flushed, and he dared not look up. The dreams of a young man are always so full of springtime.

He was ashamed and unable to speak of his dream, which was a secret in his heart.

Halfway through the meal, the old butler suddenly walked over and whispered a few words in Shen Huai'an's ear. Shen Huai'an's expression was very calm, but the next second he got up to answer a phone call.
