He was a member of the Shen family, and with Wen Renjin around, there was no way he couldn't have known about Commander Pan's visit.
"I only found out after he told me," he wasn't lying about this. "But I didn't expect my darling to be so amazing."
Shi Wan ignored him and turned on the computer to get busy with her own things. Since her secret was already out, there was nothing more for her to hide from him.
Shen Siyan sat obediently by the side, quietly watching her.
Suddenly, his phone lit up. It was a message from an unknown number, but Shen Siyan knew exactly who it was from.
He ignored it and sat down beside Shi Wan. "Darling, are you dealing with Ma Yi's matter?"
"Yeah."
"Do you need any help?"
"Help?" Shi Wan glanced at him sideways. "How?"
"Grandpa is in a good mood right now."
He could just have someone deal with Ma Yi. That ungrateful wretch.
"No need. You go and rest first."
Shen Siyan didn't move. "I'll wait for you. Don't you like to sleep in my arms the most?"
Shi Wan: "..."
She didn't know what was going on either. Usually, she slept quite quietly, but once she shared a bed with Shen Siyan, the next day, she'd act like a hooligan for no reason.
Not only would she wrap her arms and legs around him, but she'd also burrow into his arms as if she were freezing.
But the air - conditioner temperature was just fine.
"You go back first. I'll sleep alone tonight."
"Okay."
The next day.
Shi Wan stared at the handsome face inches away from hers and her mind went blank for a few seconds.
Just like usual, she was clinging to the man like an octopus. The man's pajamas were in a mess, a few buttons undone, revealing his strong chest. Further down, one could faintly see his well - defined abs and the alluring V - line...
Not only was she nestled in his arms, but she was also lying on his arm.
"Awake? Do you want to pull it open to take a better look?"
Above her, the man's deep voice was still hoarse.
Meeting his teasing gaze, Shi Wan felt a bit uncomfortable. "How did I end up here?"
She remembered going back to her own room last night.
"Didn't you come here by yourself, darling?" The man looked aggrieved. "You rushed in as soon as I opened the door last night. Look, you took off my clothes."
Shi Wan: "..."
Was she really that wild?
"Look, there are still the scratch marks you left on me."
Shi Wan looked in the direction the man pointed and sure enough, saw a few red marks, as if they were made by someone's nails.
"Maybe I've been having trouble sleeping recently and sleepwalked."
She pretended to be calm and lifted the quilt, trying to run away.
However, the quick - witted man grabbed her back onto the bed. He propped his hands on either side of her and looked down at her.
"Are you just going to leave like this, darling?"
"Do you think I'll let you grab me back?"
"Not necessarily impossible."
As he said this, he pulled her into his arms and kissed her.
True to his word, Shen Siyan really took revenge for the scratch marks she left on him...
Just thinking about it, Shi Wan's face burned. She was out of focus during the exam.
"Wanwan, what's wrong with you? You seemed out of it during the exam just now."
After the exam, Zheng Zhi sat in front of her with her phone in hand.
"Nothing."
"Are you sick? Your face is so red." Zheng Zhi reached out and touched her forehead. "You're not running a fever. What's going on?"
Shi Wan's face turned even redder and her eyes darted around. "I'm really okay. Maybe it's just too hot."
"I see."
There was an air - conditioner in the classroom, and they were wearing a lot of clothes. It was normal to feel hot.
"By the way, Wanwan, the matter on the Internet has been clarified. That Ma Yi is really a jerk. She actually repaid kindness with enmity!"
"It's okay. Ignore her. There's still some time before the next exam. Let's go and have lunch first."
"Okay."
...
In the rental house, Ma Yi was sitting in a daze on the shabby sofa. Ma's mother didn't know what was going on outside.
"Ma Yi, what's wrong? Is there something you can't tell me?"
"Nothing, Mom. I've already bought you a ticket to go back to our hometown. Let's go now."
"What's going on? Didn't you say we weren't going back?"
"That was before when your health wasn't good. Now that you're better, the countryside is more suitable for you to recuperate."
Ma's mother didn't suspect anything. "What about you?"
"I'm here to repay a debt of gratitude. I'll go home after I'm done, okay?"
"Okay."
Ma Yi watched her get on the bus in person and then bought some things and went home.
Half an hour later, Ma Yi watched as the house doused with gasoline quickly caught fire. Her face was full of satisfaction!
When she was in trouble, none of these people came out to speak up for her. They all deserved to die!
She had already cut off the Internet here. By the time people found out, it would probably be too late.
Ma Yi's face was full of madness.
Soon, the fire in the rental house grew stronger. The people in the rental house panicked and tried to escape, but all the doors were blocked.
"Little girl, are you outside? Hurry up and leave. There's a fire here!"
Ma Yi was about to leave when the neighbor with a slurred speech urged her to leave.
"Also, remember to call the police! Otherwise, everyone here will die!"
Ma Yi gave her a smile and turned to walk outside.
It wasn't until someone noticed and called the police that the fire in the rental house was huge, and no one had come out of the rental house yet.
The firefighters rushed up to put out the fire, but they saw a little girl covering her mouth and running out.
"Little girl, how are the people inside? Why are you the only one who came out?"
Ma Yi collapsed on the ground, shaking her head and muttering, "They're dead. They're all dead. They all deserve to die..."
The firefighter supporting her thought she was scared and didn't force her. He continued to rush up to put out the fire.
At the same time, the post Ma Yi scheduled to send quickly went viral.
The content of the post was disturbing. Everyone in the comments was scolding her for being crazy, and some people even called the police.
The firefighter immediately frowned. He rushed up to Ma Yi with his phone in hand. "Did you start this fire?"
In the post, there were pictures of Ma Yi holding gasoline and a lighter, and it was clearly stated in the post.
"Yes, I did." Ma Yi's face was full of madness. "Who asked them not to help me? They all deserved to die!"
The team leader was so angry that he had a headache. Looking at the growing fire, he threw his phone down and was about to rush up!
"Captain, wait! Someone said that all the residents have been rescued and are currently being treated in the hospital."
"What?" The team leader was overjoyed. "Who rescued them?"
"I'm not sure. But you can go to the hospital and ask."
"Okay. You guys hurry up and put out the fire. Keep an eye on the situation in the hospital at all times. Also, take Ma Yi to the police station."
"Yes!"
...
The Chinese Medicine Hospital received an unusually large number of patients today. Many of them were burned. It was said that someone set fire to a rental house in the south of the city.
When the team leader arrived, he happened to run into Dean Yu. He rushed forward in a hurry. "Dean, I heard that someone sent a lot of burned patients here. May I ask where that person is now? And how are the rescued patients?"
