Please do not read at pirate sites. Read only on https://royaltywrites.com.ng/ Please read this content from the original site.
"Great, great!" Wen Yan was the first to support, "Then we must taste Dad's barbecue, long live Dad."
Shen Zhirou: "......"
Shen Jinghe: "............"
Shen Jingxiu: "................"
Shen Yuan: "................"
A deadly silence.
But it doesn't matter. As long as Wen Yan herself isn't embarrassed, then it's others who are embarrassed.
And she even took the initiative to cue the others.
Isn't Shen Zhirou two-faced in public and in private? Then let's drag her out for a spin first.
"Zhirou, you don't have any other plans today, right? It's rare for the whole family to be together."
"Okay, I agree. I don't have any other plans today." Shen Zhirou still looked gentle and smiled without any harm.
Next is Shen Jingxiu.
"Big brother probably doesn't have anything else to do either. It's rare you're home on the weekend, occasionally having a barbecue together could be a nice option."
Wen Yan had barely finished speaking when Shen Jinghe snorted coldly.
He then added sarcastically, "The young master would eat barbecue with you? Aren't you thinking too highly of yourself?"
Wen Yan: "........"
'So, does Shen Jinghe hate Shen Jingxiu too as a result of that kidnapping incident? Wasn't the kidnapping planned by the kidnappers and the decision made by their father? Isn't Shen Jinghe hating the wrong person? Shen Jingxiu is also a victim.'
The two brothers, simultaneously touched by Wen Yan's thoughts: "…………"

Shen Jinghe wanted to roll his eyes at Wen Yan, but he held back. This Wen Yan, is her relationship with Shen Jingxiu really that good? She's even taking his side.
From childhood to now, Shen Jingxiu was famous for not having any friends! And Shen Jingxiu was also stunned. He was surprised that Wen Yan knew about the kidnapping incident from their childhood.
At the same time, it also triggered his memories. Yes, back then, he was also a victim.
But after coming back, he acted as if nothing happened, never showing fear or nightmares. It seemed that his family had forgotten that he had been trapped in a dark box for days and nights.
Because he was the one chosen by his father, he couldn't cry when his younger brother was crying and making a fuss, and he couldn't tell his parents that he also had nightmares when they were comforting his brother.
He had to appear strong, as if he was never a victim.
But Wen Yan was right, he was also a victim.
So what, it was just a barbecue. Last night she'd even brought over a little cake. Even if he genuinely didn't like this barbecue suggestion, what could he do but accept her invitation?
Shen Jingxiu nodded.
"Well, I don't have any other plans today."
When Shen Jinghe heard this answer, he quickly glanced at Shen Jingxiu, then coldly snorted.
Wen Yan hurriedly asked him with a smiling face, "Everyone is participating, are you the only one not coming, Second Brother?"
Shen Jinghe glanced at Wen Yan, a cold smile playing on his lips. "I can't do anything."
"It's okay, I can. Second Brother, you just need to bring your mouth."
"You said it yourself."
"Of course, everyone can testify."

"Alright, I'll go upstairs for a nap after I finish eating. Wake me up later. Mom, enjoy your meal."
Shen Jinghe's last words were obviously meant for Su Yang.
Su Yang was also very pleased.
Although the second son's attitude towards his father and eldest son remained as cold as ever, the family was at least together, and such an opportunity was quite rare.
She nodded at Shen Jinghe, "You often work day and night, so take a good rest now that you finally have a holiday. We'll call you when it's ready."
While Su Yang was speaking, Wen Yan had been observing Shen Zhirou.
But Shen Zhirou was simply eating her meal attentively, seemingly uninterested in whether Shen Jinghe stayed or left.
Could it be that what she saw before was just her imagination?
But it didn't matter if Shen Jinghe was useless, they could find someone else.
"By the way, Mom, the crew hasn't given us any notice yet, and I don't have anything else to do, so I'll just stay at home!"
"Okay," Su Yang was happy, "Stay at home, more people means more liveliness. Our home felt quite empty when you weren't here those few days. I really wasn't used to it at first."
"Hehe, that's because Mom missed me. Actually, I missed Mom those few days too."
Although it sounded cheesy to say openly, Wen Yan wasn't afraid of being cheesy.

Actors, while filming love scenes in front of dozens of people, remained calm, so what's wrong with saying a few cheesy words.
Shen Zhirou, however, seemed to have a slight twitch at the corner of her mouth.
But Wen Yan glanced around, it seemed that it wasn't only Shen Zhirou that reacted, Shen Jingxiu's brow also furrowed slightly.
Whatever, Shen Zhirou had told her to get out of the house, but she wouldn't.
She wanted to stay right under her nose, to build good relationships with everyone in this family. Let's see how long she can hide her true intentions.
Su Yang obviously liked Wen Yan's approach, as her smile never faded.
Soon, the family had finished breakfast.
Su Yang called Aunt Zhang over and told her to prepare the tools and ingredients for barbecue.
Zhang Sao said they had a grill and smokeless charcoal at home, but some ingredients needed to be purchased separately.
Hearing this, Wen Yan immediately suggested, "Mom, why don't we go buy the ingredients ourselves? I haven't gone grocery shopping with you for a long time. Zhirou can come too."
"Sounds good. It has been a while since we went to the supermarket. In that case," Su Yang looked at Shen Jingxiu, "Jingxiu, why don't you be our driver for the three of us?"
Although Shen Jingxiu was cold, he rarely refused his parents' reasonable requests.
"Alright, I'll prepare now."
Ten minutes later, Shen Jingxiu drove his car to the front door of the villa.
Shen Zhirou calmly opened the back door before Wen Yan and said, "Mom, you go in first."
Wen Yan didn't argue and automatically sat in the passenger seat.
After getting in the car, Shen Zhirou initiated a conversation with Su Yang about the company.
Wen Yan had never worked at Shen's Group and couldn't join the conversation.
Therefore, her thoughts started to wander again.
'Who said that men who work hard and drive are the most handsome? They're so right! Shen Jingxiu looks so serious while driving. That jawline, that Adam's apple, those long, slender fingers—he looks so abstinent! He must be very abstinent, right? Even that sharp-tongued guy Shen Jinghe has rumored girlfriends, but he doesn't seem to have any scandals'
Shen Jingxiu tightened his grip on the steering wheel. Is she really interested in whether he's restrained or not?
He frowned and suddenly accelerated the car.
But soon, he couldn't hear Wen Yan's thoughts anymore.
Because Wen Yan suddenly remembered something, "I think I forgot to ask Second Brother what he likes to eat. Mom, do you know Second Brother's preferences?"
