That evening, Wei Shengxi refused Gu Nanyan's invitation to dine there for the same reason, while Wen Shiyin also came to Fuyun Island with the dancers and entertainers.
"Young Master, please be well." Wen Shiyin had clearly dressed up carefully and had no problems with etiquette, but one could clearly sense a hint of anxiety from her.
His eyes darted around, as if searching for something.
"Please sit down, Master Wen. There's no need to rush. Yu-ge'er has already gone to fetch him." Gu Nanyan invited Wen Shiyin to sit down and personally made tea for her.
Wen Shiyin readily accepted the tea brewed by Gu Nanyan with both hands, saying humbly, "Thank you, Young Master." She added, "I have been searching for my sister for a long time, but there has been no news."
"It is already a great favor for you, Young Master, to find my sister. I shouldn't trouble you any further, but I am so eager to see my sister. I hope you will forgive me."
Wen Shiyin naturally knew what Gu Nanyan wanted her to do by searching for her sister.
The Wen family was not a completely neutral family to begin with, and from the day she took over the Wen family, she set her sights on finding her sister, willing to pay any price.
"It's alright. I also have younger siblings, so I can understand how the Wen family head feels." Gu Nanyan poured himself a cup of tea and took a sip. "Your sister's condition may not be very good right now. The Wen family head should be prepared."
Wen Shiyin knew, of course, that her sister had been used as an experimental subject and taken away by the Medical Alliance.
Although the Wen family has no power on Fuyun Island, they are still one of the major families in Xihua City, and they are well-known for their "reputation" in the Medical Alliance.
I had only heard about it before, but I didn't pay much attention to it. I would just sigh when I heard some examples.
But I never expected this!
“The sound is clear.”
For Wen Shiyin, finding her younger sister was enough.
Regardless of her sister's situation, as the dignified head of the Wen family in Xihua City, how could she not even afford to support her own sister?
Soon, Gu Nanyu brought Wen Shiyi in.
Wen Shiyi has been sticking close to Gu Nanyu these past few days, especially when they meet outsiders.
Upon seeing that familiar face, Wen Shiyin could barely contain her emotions. She abruptly stood up and strode towards Wen Shiyi.
“My little Nuomi…” The Wen family head, known as the “Iron-Blooded Madman” in Xihua City, stood in front of his sister who had been missing for many years, his eyes reddening as he stared at her blankly, calling her by her childhood name.
"Do you...do you...still remember your sister?" Wen Shiyin's voice was choked with sobs.
Her precious little sister, the sister she vowed to protect for life the moment she was born.
When Wen Shiyin rushed over, Wen Shiyi couldn't help but hide behind Gu Nanyu, peeking out half of her head, her clear tea-colored eyes cautiously scrutinizing this strange "woman".
He frantically searched his memory for information about this woman.
"Little Nuomi..." Wen Shiyin was at a loss when she saw her younger sister was afraid of her. "I...I'm your older sister..."
"I...I'm sorry," Wen Shiyi had learned most of the imperial etiquette under Gu Nanyu's tutelage, "I...I don't remember you."
Her voice was soft and gentle, and she tugged at Gu Nanyu's robes with both hands.
Gu Nanyu wasn't very comfortable being pulled like that by her. "Patriarch Wen, I'm sure my elder sister has already made it very clear. Young Master Wen's memories have been altered and sealed. There aren't any major problems with his health. I've already had someone arrange a recovery plan based on his condition."
He reached out and ruffled Wen Shiyi's hair. This was a very common gesture these past few days. "This is the sister I'm telling you about today. She's not a bad person. She's your own sister, who shares your bloodline."
But this action was particularly irritating to Wen Shiyin, as she often did the same to her younger sister when they were young.
But now she's actually crouching behind someone else.
Even if this person is the young master of the Gu family.
His gaze was complicated, and there was a hint of grievance in his eyes as he looked at Wen Shiyin.
After hearing Gu Nanyu's words, Wen Shiyi stepped out from behind him.
"Patriarch Wen?" Seeing Wen Shiyin looking somewhat dazed, Gu Nanyu called out again.
Seeing how much her younger sister depended on Gu Nanyu, Wen Shiyin knew that Gu Nanyu must have gone to great lengths. "Thank you so much, Sixth Young Master Gu, for taking care of my sister. I am deeply grateful."
Gu Nanyu smiled and said, "Patriarch Wen, you are too kind. Shi Yi is very smart and learns very quickly."
The boy had a pure smile on his face.
"You taught well." Although Wen Shiyi came out from behind Gu Nanyu, she still kept tugging at Gu Nanyu's sleeve. When she heard Gu Nanyu praise her, she also politely returned the compliment.
Hearing Wen Shiyi say this, Gu Nanyu chuckled, "Good girl, this Wen family head wants to have a private talk with you, are you willing?" He gently stroked the back of Wen Shiyi's head, his tone suggesting a discussion.
Wen Shiyi glanced at Gu Nanyu, then at Wen Shiyin who looked expectant, and then for some reason her gaze lingered on Gu Nanyan for a few seconds.
Just as Wen Shiyin thought she was going to refuse and her face showed disappointment, Wen Shiyi nodded, "Okay, but...you...have to..."
"You talk to the Wen family head, and I'll wait for you outside, okay?" Putting aside the fact that the Wen family is useful to Gu Nanyan, Gu Nanyu naturally has some sincerity in his relationship with the people he has been raising for so long.
"Okay!" Wen Shiyi's eyes lit up instantly. "Let's go then."
The voice also became much more cheerful.
For some reason, Wen Shiyin always had the feeling that her cabbage was about to be eaten by a pig, and that she was willingly letting the pig eat it.
However, it's always a good thing that my sister is willing to talk to me alone, so I looked at Gu Nanyan.
Gu Nanyan nodded. "Yu-ge'er, you take them there." He instructed Gu Nanyu.
"Okay." Gu Nanyu led the two sisters away.
Shen Bei'an also emerged from behind the screen; the dancers and performers were putting on makeup.
"Yan Yan, you don't want Yu Di to marry into the Wen family, do you?" Shen Bei'an could see everything clearly from behind the screen. The young master of the Wen family was very dependent on Gu Nanyu.
Gu Nanyu was also very patient with Wen Shiyi.
Gu Nanyan chuckled, stood up, pulled Shen Bei'an to sit down, and flicked the tip of Shen Bei'an's nose. "What are you thinking about?"
"Or do you think I'm the kind of person who would give away my own brother for personal gain?"
“No, that’s definitely not it!” Shen Bei’an denied repeatedly, kissing Gu Nan’an’s lips. “I just think they look like a good match.”
Handsome men and beautiful women, very pleasing to the eye.
"If they develop feelings for each other, I will naturally not interfere. If not, they can remain as teacher and student."
There is a kind of relationship in the world that is very strange.
Teacher-student relationship
They can be intimate, yet also distant.
Yet this relationship is inexplicably reliable.
Shen Beian nodded in agreement.
