Wen Yan blinked her eyes. "Do you know where the chewing gum is?"
Honestly, she didn't know either.
Because chewing gum was just an excuse she came up with on the spot. In reality, she didn't even see any chewing gum on the way here.
It's possible that it's not even on this floor.
However, Shen Jingxiu said, "Just give it a try. Since you don't know where it is anyway."
"............" Wen Yan felt insulted but couldn't argue.
Under Shen Jingxiu's lead, they walked straight, turned right, then left, and finally stopped in front of a certain shelf.
"Go ahead, I'm picking up the tab today. If there's anything else you want, feel free to grab it all."
Wen Yan: 'Wow, Mr. Shen is picking up the tab! Should I be greedy and buy the entire wall of gum?'
Shen Jingxiu raised an eyebrow: "You could buy the whole wall today and open a little shop."

Wen Yan was pleasantly surprised. "Big brother, why are you suddenly being so nice to me?"
Shen Jingxiu felt a little uncomfortable, but still spoke, "As a thank you for the little cake last night."
"Oh, those aren’t worth that much. Actually, two bottles are enough for me."
Wen Yan didn’t waste too much time there. Her goal was clear; she grabbed two boxes of watermelon flavor and left..
On the way to meet up with Su Yang and Shen Zhirou, Shen Jingxiu asked Wen Yan, "By the way, who were you talking to just now? When I found you."
"Oh, just a passerby," Wen Yan answered without hesitation, "I asked him if he knew where the chewing gum was displayed, and he said he didn't know."
Shen Jingxiu made a sound of agreement.
Knowing that Wen Yan didn't want to tell the truth, he didn't ask any further.
They soon found Su Yang and Shen Zhirou.
An hour later, they pushed three carts full of food and snacks to the parking lot.
Upon returning home, the charcoal fire was already burning.
Su Yang handed the ingredients to the kitchen for preparation and asked the children to rest.
But Wen Yan wasn't tired at all. She simply ran to the yard and helped Zhang Sao with the skewers.
Zhang Sao loved to chat with people, and Wen Yan wasn't bad either. Although there was an age gap between them, they chatted happily.
Soon, Su Yang was attracted by their laughter.
"She couldn't help but say to Shen Yuan beside her, "Youth is truly wonderful. Look at Yan Yan, she doesn't seem tired at all. We spent over an hour shopping at the supermarket, and I was exhausted. This child has finally become as cheerful and happy as before."
Shen Yuan nodded and said, "The same goes for the other few, look at them, when they came back, they hid in their rooms."
"That's because I asked them to rest. Besides, they never do any kitchen work normally. But I see that Yan Yan seems to be having fun skewering potatoes over there. I remember when we used to go on dates, you were in charge of marinating, and I was in charge of skewering the ingredients. Shouldn't we join them? Show me your skills."
The two of them smiled at each other, and Shen Yuan said, "Yes, my dear wife."
Shen Yuan and Su Yang quickly joined in the work.
Wen Yan sweet-talked them continuously, especially Su Yang, who couldn't stop smiling.
Laughter filled the garden, attracting others soon.
Shen Jingxiu, who had just finished dealing with some emails, walked to the window, opened it, and watched the people downstairs, especially Wen Yan, who was spinning around like a little bee. Without realizing it, he stood there for several minutes.
In another room, Shen Jinghe stood up and took off his headphones after his gaming character died. He quickly glanced outside the window.
Is Wen Yan really that happy about skewering? She's laughing like a flower. I wonder what seafood they bought and if there's any black gold abalone that he likes.

Third floor-
Shen Zhirou forcefully closed the window. Damn it, making such a fuss about BBQ. We have servants at home, is it necessary for her to volunteer to do the work?
If she wanted to suffer and work hard, it would be fine, but she had also dragged their parents into it. If she didn't go down now, she would appear lazy, which disgusted her.
She had clearly warned her to get lost, yet she deliberately tried to get close to everyone in the house. She was truly refusing to listen.
Shen Zhirou went downstairs with resentment.
Su Yang was the first one to see her. "Zhirou, why did you come down? Didn't I tell you to rest?"
Shen Zhirou smiled gently. "I'm not tired. It's a family barbecue, it's only meaningful if we do it ourselves. Let me chop the vegetables."
Wen Yan, who had already started chopping, said, "Zhirou, why don't you wash the vegetables instead? It's easier."
Shen Zhirou smiled even more gently. "It's fine, I'm better at chopping."
Su Yang looked at Shen Yuan. It was hard enough for Yan Yan not to actively compete with Zhirou, why did Zhirou start competing with Yan Yan again?
Wen Yan said, "Alright then, my hand is a little sore from chopping vegetables, and there are no extra knives here. Take this one, I'll go wash the vegetables."
"............" Shen Zhirou's smile began to fade.
She didn't really care about chopping vegetables. In just a few tries, she cut her finger and even cut off half of her left index fingernail.
Mrs. Zhang quickly brought the first aid kit, and Su Yang immediately helped Shen Zhirou disinfect and bandage her cut.
"Zhirou, don't do things you're not good at next time, it'll avoid risks. Fortunately, you only cut your fingernail."
Wen Yan could only gloat inwardly: 'Oh wow, look at that damn competitive spirit, it really has its limits.'
After a while, Shen Jingxiu, who had finished his work, came downstairs.
When they officially started barbecuing, Su Yang went to call Shen Jinghe.
Everyone had a talent for barbecuing, and the food they grilled was hardly burnt.

Wen Yan enjoyed it the most.
Seeing her eating one skewer after another, Shen Jinghe sneered on the side, "With your appetite, you still want to enter the entertainment industry? You should give up on that idea as soon as possible."
Wen Yan finished eating her food calmly, wiped her mouth, and then spoke.
"I haven't even entered the entertainment industry yet, so I need to eat as much as I can. But how dare you say that to me, second brother? You're the one who ate the most here besides me. You're a top star, you should be the one controlling your mouth."
"Hmph, what do you know? If I could eat like this normally, would I need to eat like this?"
"Then don't say anything about me."
Su Yang listened to their conversation and felt amused. "They're bickering again."
Shen Jinghe tried to salvage his dignity: "It's mainly because the barbecue tasted good today."
Su Yang's smile deepened. "The marinade for this barbecue is your dad's exclusive secret recipe."
Su Yang said this in order to bring the father and son closer together, but Shen Jinghe was stubborn in this regard.
As soon as he heard this, he immediately frowned. "I'm full."
"Here, abalone." Just as he was about to finish speaking, Wen Yan used tongs to give him a piece of abalone. "Don't act like you don't like it, Second Brother. I've noticed that you really like eating this."
'You little brat! Hmph, if you leave, I'll really look down on you.'
Jinghe glared at Wen Yan, his anger subsiding.
Ha, he really wasn't going to leave; being looked down upon by someone as insignificant as her was too embarrassing
Seeing that Shen Jingxiu didn't do anything embarrassing, Wen Yan finally shifted her gaze away.
Looking down, she was surprised to see a skewer of roasted potatoes on her plate.
And sitting next to her was Shen Jingxiu.
