Suddenly, someone hugged her from behind. With a bang, the bedroom door closed.
"It's so late and you're still awake? Don't you care about your health?"
Smelling the familiar scent, Shi Wan's tense nerves instantly relaxed.
The man rested his chin on her shoulder socket and whispered, "I'm used to having you by my side. I can't fall asleep without you."
Shi Wan didn't say a word. Then he asked, "Did you solve it so quickly?"
He thought she wouldn't be back until at least the next day after dealing with the matter.
Shi Wan turned around and put her arms around his neck. "Don't you already know?"
"Did I guess right?"
"Just look at who I am."
Seeing the rare hint of arrogance on her face, Shen Siyan let out a soft laugh.
"Yes, my baby is the most amazing." He kissed her, his voice hoarse. "So can you take a rest now?"
"I want to take a shower."
Without a word, the man carried her into the bathroom.
...
Early the next morning, when Shi Wan was browsing the news, she saw that Yang Yun's scandal had been exposed. He apologized online, but few people were willing to forgive him.
Don't Forget: "Is an apology useful? He plagiarized so much and still refused to admit it. He's really shameless. This time, he even resorted to direct theft."
Heal: "Did he really think others were fools? He didn't expect to meet someone tough. This time, he's been thoroughly exposed."
Unfortunately, Regret Lingers: "I don't think this Si Yu is a good person either. It's just a small matter. Is it really necessary to make such a big fuss?"
Gnashing Teeth: "The one above can choose to expose the address. I don't mean any harm. I just want to go and take a look."
Medical Scholar: "My teacher once said that a big head doesn't necessarily mean intelligence. Maybe it's just filled with cerebrospinal fluid. But I seriously suspect that the one two floors above had plastic surgery to make their head look bigger. They might as well have poured cement inside."
"Seconded."
"Seconded +1."
"..."
Shi Wan didn't pay any more attention to these things. The man was still asleep, and she couldn't get up either.
So she simply lay in the man's arms and played games.
"You're throwing yourself at me so early in the morning?"
The man opened his eyes and said teasingly.
"If you have the guts, let go of your claws first and then say that."
"Am I wrong?" Instead of letting go, the man tightened his embrace. "Lying in my arms and looking at me with such longing..."
Shi Wan struggled to get up but accidentally pressed on the man's most sensitive part.
"Ouch—" The man's face changed drastically. He gritted his teeth. "Baby, you're really being ruthless. If something goes wrong, what will you do?"
She looked a bit helpless. "This... I didn't do it on purpose. Let me take a look."
She wasn't completely ignorant about these things and naturally knew that this part of a man was very vulnerable.
In a flurry, she said she was going to take off the man's pants.
Shen Siyan's eyes changed. He quickly grabbed her hand. "Don't move. I'll take a moment to recover."
If she really saw it, they wouldn't be able to get out of bed today.
Shi Wan realized what she was about to do and bit her lip. "You don't have to be afraid of seeing a doctor. If there's really something wrong, it's better to treat it early."
Shen Siyan: "..."
He was afraid that the one who would end up in the hospital would be her.
He stroked her slender waist. "I'm fine."
"How can you be fine?"
"I'm really okay. I just need a moment to recover."
The man gritted his teeth and pulled her into his arms.
Seeing this, Shi Wan thought he was just being shy and didn't ask any more questions.
If something really went wrong, she would find another opportunity to take him to the hospital.
When they went downstairs, Shi Wan was looking for experts on her phone. Although she knew a bit, she wasn't a professional in this field. Moreover, Shen Siyan definitely didn't want her to know.
She had to think of a way to make him accept treatment.
"Baby, it's time to eat."
The man came out of the kitchen and put the dishes on the table.
Shi Wan put down her phone and sat next to the man. "Is this chicken?"
"Yeah. Didn't you want to eat it?"
He picked up a piece of chicken and put it in her bowl.
"You even deboned it?"
Shi Wan was shocked. Chicken has a lot of bones, and it's very difficult to remove them. When she ate it, there wasn't a single bone.
Moreover, the chicken was all cut into small pieces.
"Yeah. Isn't it delicious?"
"... It's delicious."
This was actually one of her small habits. Sometimes she really liked to eat meat, but she didn't like big pieces of meat with bones, especially chicken and fish.
Sometimes, no matter how much she wanted to eat, she would be discouraged because of the bones and thorns.
Many people thought she just didn't like it, but they didn't know that she was just too lazy to pick at the bones.
"When did you notice this?"
"The first time I saw you eating." Shen Siyan hooked his lips. "There was a little glutton staring at the meat, wanting to eat but not daring to. I guessed it then."
"You noticed me so early?"
"Yeah. Otherwise, how could I have won you over?" He teased her. "Facts have proved that the result is pretty good."
Both Shi Wan and him were the kind of people who would commit to a lifetime relationship once they were sure of their feelings. For them, although they had to be cautious about their relationship, they wouldn't hesitate once they had made up their minds.
Shi Wan snorted softly and lowered her head to eat.
Shen Siyan looked at her dotingly. Whenever she needed something, he would always be there to provide it for her.
...
After hiding for so long, Shen Jiao was finally caught.
Now she no longer resembled the young miss of the Shen family. She was in a sorry and dirty state. If you didn't look carefully, it would be hard to recognize that the person in front of you was Shen Jiao.
Shen Tianhong covered his nose with a look of disgust. Thinking about all the worry and fear she had caused him recently, he angrily kicked her.
"White-eyed wolf!"
His kick was very forceful, and Shen Jiao almost couldn't catch her breath.
She had thought about the consequences of being caught before she did it. This was still a relatively light punishment.
But when this moment finally came, she was still scared.
She had been protected by the Shen family for so many years and had been the young miss of the Shen family for so long. Now she was going to die at the hands of her own family.
How ironic!
Shen Cheng looked at her, and the smile on his face was both strange and familiar.
She was in a daze and burst out laughing like a crazy person. "You call me a white-eyed wolf? You are the real culprits for what I've become!"
Shen Tianhong was enraged as if his innermost thoughts had been exposed. "Bitch! How dare you blame all this on us?!"
"Isn't it true? Didn't you teach me that as long as I wanted something, it would be mine? Didn't you say that the Shen family was so powerful that there was nothing I couldn't do as long as I wanted to? " She laughed, looking pitiful. "You raised me into what I am today, and in the end, it's still you who abandon and despise me. Can't I fight for myself?"
"You..."
"Father, little sister is stubborn. There's no need to talk to her any more." Shen Cheng stopped him. "You can go out first. I'll handle this."
"Remember to handle it properly."
Shen Tianhong left. Shen Cheng squatted down in front of her and smiled gently. "Little sister, we were training you for the sake of the family's marriage alliance, not to train you into a useless person who would even try to fight me to the death in the end."
Shen Jiao was about to say something, but Shen Cheng had already stood up. He said to the people beside him, "Get rid of her. Announce to the public that Shen Jiao, the second daughter of the second branch of the Shen family, escaped from prison and accidentally fell into the sea and died."
Shen Jiao suddenly widened her eyes. Before she could even say a word, her eyes closed forever.
