Study room.

Shen Jingxiu put down the small cake and documents in his hand and immediately turned around to close the door.

He had a little-known hobby that grew as he got older, which was his love for various types of small cakes.

He liked them since he was young, but because of his grandfather's frowned sentence, "Why does a boy like sweets so much? You should focus on studying," he hid this small hobby away.

Every time his mother and younger sister ate small cakes, he could only silently watch from the side and pretend to be uninterested.

Over time, everyone believed that he didn't like eating them and never bothered to share with him.

Previously, all kinds of desserts were Shen Zhirou's favorite, but after she fell ill and ran away, even Su Yang herself stopped liking sweets. Since then, these foods never appeared in the house.

After Shen Zhirou returned, it seemed like she no longer had this hobby. Today was the first time he had seen dessert after dinner in many years.

And at this moment, the delicious and tempting dessert was lying quietly beside him, waiting for him to taste it.

He scooped a spoonful into his mouth, and the sweet and melting sensation instantly conquered his taste buds.

As he ate, he thought to himself that it's good that Wen Yan didn't really know him, otherwise, she definitely wouldn't have sent him the cake.

But it was quite surprising that she specially brought the cake over.

But now that he thought about it carefully, it wasn't that surprising. She always praised him for being handsome in her heart, so this must be her way of showing her love for her big brother.

Liking her big brother and giving him some food, it made sense.

Soon, Shen Jingxiu finished off the small cake. After finishing it, he felt a little thirsty and planned to go downstairs to pour a glass of water.

But as soon as he opened the study door, he saw Wen Yan knocking on Shen Jinghe's door with another piece of cake in her hands.

That piece looked even more delicious...

She even brought the cake inside. It seems she likes the second brother in this family more.

But is it true that he is just a cold, unapproachable person?

Shen Jinghe opened the door, raised an eyebrow, and looked at Wen Yan.

"What's up?"

Wen Yan held the small cake with both hands and handed it to Shen Jinghe with a smile.

"I noticed you didn't eat much for dinner, like you were sulking by yourself. You probably didn't eat enough, so I brought this to fill your stomach."

"Hmph," Shen Jinghe sneered, "Regretting now?"

Wen Yan blinked her eyes, "Regret? Regret what?"

"Pretending not to know."

"Then are you not going to invite me in? Are we going to stand here and chat?"

"Come in and close the door."

The two entered the room one after the other.

After Wen Yan closed the door, Shen Jinghe hooked his lips and repeated himself.

"So, do you regret asking me to come back?"

"Um... Second Brother, shouldn't you pay attention to your words? Clearly, I invited you to come back, so how can you say I'm begging?"

[This guy is still smiling. It seems like he's not in a bad mood.]

Shen Jinghe: Of course he's not in a bad mood. He gave the old man a silent retort, so how could he not feel happy?

He glanced at Wen Yan, "I don't know why you did this, but don't do it again next time."

Wen Yan widened her eyes, "You don't know why? Can't you see it? Is my intention not clear enough? I obviously did this to make Mom happy. Can't you sense how happy she is when she sees you?"

"What about Shen Zhirou?" Shen Jinghe scoffed, "You usually hate her, so why did you make an effort to please her? Did the sun rise from the west?"

Wen Yan widened her eyes, "Don't you know why? Can't you see it? Is it because I haven't been obvious enough? It's obvious that I did this to make Mom happy. Can't you see how happy she is when she sees you?"

Shen Jinghe sneered, "What about Shen Zhirou? You always dislike her, so why are you being nice to her? Did the sun rise from the west?"

"The sun didn't rise from the west, but a harmonious family leads to prosperity. I want Mom to be happy, so I naturally have to stop fighting with her."

"Is that so? You're sacrificing yourself for the greater good. I never expected you to have this kind of quality."

Wen Yan replied, "I thought about it, and the cake tastes really good. I sincerely suggest you try it. As for me, goodbye!"

Shen Jinghe snorted, "Make sure to close the door when you leave."

"I know. I will do that!"


Wen Yan gently closed the door behind her, feeling quite good.

She originally thought she was doing a good deed with bad consequences, but it seemed that Shen Jinghe's mood was unaffected and his sharp tongue was still there.

As for Shen Yuan, she believed that the beautiful Su lady would be able to console him.

With all this in mind, Wen Yan couldn't help but smile.

Just as she was about to go upstairs to her room, she unexpectedly saw Shen Zhirou at the staircase.

Wen Yan took the initiative to greet her, "Are you going downstairs?"

Shen Zhirou smiled faintly, "Hmm, I'm going to get some fruit juice. Do you want some?"

"Thank you, but I don't want any. I'm planning to go back to my room."

After eating a few pieces of cake earlier, Wen Yan decided to go to her room, find her sneakers, and go run a few laps in the garden to burn some energy.

But Shen Zhirou seemed to have no intention of letting her go.

"Did you just come out of Second Brother's room? What were you talking about? You seem very happy."

Wen Yan fell silent for a moment.

Because she felt things were progressing too quickly.

Currently, her relationship with Shen Zhirou seemed to be limited to her being nice and Shen Zhirou responding indifferently.

But now Shen Zhirou was suddenly asking in such detail, and Wen Yan felt a bit uncomfortable.

But it couldn't be ruled out that Shen Zhirou also wanted a harmonious family, so Wen Yan cooperatively answered her question.

"Yes, we didn't really talk about anything. I just brought a piece of cake to Second Brother because I noticed he didn't eat much dinner tonight."

Shen Zhirou nodded, "I see. Did Second Brother accept it?"

"He did, it was just a small piece of cake, and he didn't refuse."

Shen Zhirou nodded again, "I see, I'll go downstairs first."

"Okay, bye."

After parting ways, Wen Yan quickly returned to her room upstairs.

She had initially planned to find some exercise clothes, but it took her a while to find a sweatshirt.

Once she was dressed, she didn't rush and instead put on her Bluetooth earphones while watching videos as she went downstairs.

However, when she reached the second floor, one of her earphones accidentally fell out. She quickly took a few steps to pick it up.

At that moment, she stumbled upon a funny video. It was so hilarious that she couldn't help but laugh out loud the first time she watched it.

She couldn't resist watching it again in the same spot.

But just as she laughed for the second time, she suddenly felt someone's gaze on her.

Pausing the video, she looked ahead and saw Shen Zhirou approaching her expressionless.

Seeing that expressionless face, Wen Yan instantly lost her desire to laugh.

Nevertheless, she still greeted her, "Hey, Zhirou."

Shen Zhirou took large strides, and in no time, she was standing next to Wen Yan.

She had no expression on her face, "Let's talk, Wen Yan."
