CHAPTER 26 - BARBECUE SKILLS
Please do not read on pirate sites. Read only on https://royaltywrites.com.ng/ Please read this content from the original site.
After returning to the bedroom, Wen Yan immediately pulled out the photos taken in Su Yang's study earlier.
According to the information, Shen Zhirou's adoptive parents owned a clothing factory with a good economic condition. Wen Yan searched online and found that this factory had indeed been established for more than ten years.
The legal status of the factory and Shen Zhirou's adoptive father matched perfectly, without any loopholes.
Moreover, this couple was truly kind-hearted. The information showed that they often helped orphans, and Shen Zhirou was not the first child they had helped.
"Could it be that I was overthinking?" Wen Yan couldn't help but doubt herself as she read the black and white words.
But she never doubted Shen Zhirou's identity in the first place. She was just taken aback by Su Yang's words, finding them too bizarre.
At first, she only wanted to expose Shen Zhirou's true face and seek justice for the original owner of the body.
But Shen Zhirou concealed her true intentions too well, and Wen Yan needed to provoke her.
If what was written in the original owner's diary was true, and she really had improper thoughts about Shen Jinghan, then she could make good use of it.

- First floor master bedroom.
Su Yang sat absentmindedly in front of the dressing table, not noticing that Shen Yuan had already approached her.
"What are you thinking about, Wife?"
Su Yang turned around and looked at Shen Yuan. "Do you remember the first year after Zhirou came back? Initially, Yan Yan and Zhirou had a good relationship, but later Yan Yan started complaining."
"I remember, what's wrong? Isn't that just Yan Yan seeking our attention because Zhirou came back and she didn't receive as much love as before? It's normal for her to throw some tantrums. Their conflicts were nothing major, just some hidden struggles."
"But... But what if Zhirou really did something excessive to Yan Yan?"
"What did she do?" Shen Yuan frowned. "Did something happen that I don't know about?"
Su Yang shook her head. "No, I'm just saying 'what if'."
"Then we will reason with her. Even if she's our biological child, we can't be too biased if she really did something excessive."
"But what if using hair for a paternity test isn't accurate?"
"Of course it's accurate. If there were any problems with the hair, the testing agency would have informed us at that time. What's wrong with you? Did Yan Yan say something to you just now? Did she complain again?"
"No, Yan Yan wants to get along well with Zhirou, so she came to ask me about Zhirou's past."
"So, you thought of the past? But we have already investigated back then, and everything was fine. Don't overthink it. Besides, Zhirou looks so much like you, how could she not be our child?"
"Okay, I won't think about it anymore."
When Zhirou came back that year, her identity was questioned by both her natal and in-law families, but they were eventually convinced by a paternity test.
There was no reason for Su Yang to doubt it now just because of a few words from Wen Yan.
- The next morning.
Everyone gathered at the dining table for breakfast, except for Shen Jinghan.
As soon as Shen Yuan saw the empty seat, he frowned.
Su Yang spoke before he could say anything, "Zhang Sao, go and call Jinghan down."
Wen Yan glanced at Shen Zhirou, who was sitting properly in her chair, and suddenly volunteered.
"Mom, let me go and call Second Brother. He has a bad temper, but I have a better relationship with him. He won't be mad at me!"
While saying this, Wen Yan also observed Shen Zhirou's expression.
Indeed, when she mentioned having a good relationship with Shen Jinghan, Shen Zhirou's face changed slightly.
However, perhaps due to everyone's presence, her facial expression remained subtle, and it was far from the level of last night's sudden change.
After speaking, Wen Yan didn't delay any further and immediately went upstairs.
She politely knocked on the door, but even after three rounds of knocking, there was no response, and her hand was starting to hurt from knocking.

Shen Jinghe, are you a pig? The sun has already been shining on your butt and you're still sleeping.
Shen Jinghe, who is blow-drying his hair just behind the door: ........I won't open the door, knock as much as you want, knock a hole in the door, and I'll consider it a loss if I open it.
But in the next second, his phone started ringing like crazy.
He hung up on Wen Yan, and she called again. He hung up again, and she called again.
After three times, Wen Yan finally stopped dialing, but then his WeChat started receiving messages.
Wen Yan: Wake up, superstar, your whole family is waiting for you to eat.
Wen Yan: Your mom is speaking up for you.
Wen Yan: If you keep lying in bed, it'll be embarrassing for your mom.
Wen Yan: You don't want to embarrass your mom, do you?
His phone kept beeping, Shen Jinghe was speechless, he put down the towel in his hand and walked towards the door.
Suddenly, someone opened the door from inside.
Wen Yan, who was editing a message, looked up and saw a half-naked, bath towel-wrapped handsome man.
She blinked her eyes and forgot to move her fingers.
"... How can you be like this? Can't you put on clothes before opening the door?"
[Damn, Shen Jinghe has such a perfect figure. It seems like he has never taken off his clothes in front of the camera before, so am I a front-row audience? Sitting on the couch kind]
Shen Jinghe's face sank: "... You knocked on the door, called, and messaged. Did that not give me enough time to get dressed?"

"Uh..." Wen Yan giggled, "I thought you were sleeping, hurry up, everyone is waiting for you to have breakfast."
"They can eat without waiting for me."
"But they've been waiting. You can't just leave them hanging. Hurry up and get dressed, I'll go down with you."
"Why? Can't you walk alone? Are your legs just for show?"
Wen Yan: "........"
[Pighead Shen Jinghe, if it weren't for stimulating Shen Zhirou, I wouldn't want to walk with you]
Shen Jinghe frowned, what kind of reason is this?
Wen Yan: "Okay, I'm actually worried that you'll dawdle. Everyone is waiting for you, it's really impolite to be late."
"Got it, right away."
With a bang, the door closed.
Two minutes later, the door opened again.
This time, Shen Jinghe was already dressed.
"Let's go."
However, this time, when the two walked side by side to the restaurant, Shen Zhirou didn't react at all.
Or perhaps she was facing away from the entrance of the restaurant, so she couldn't see the two walking side by side unless she turned around.
But Shen Jingxi did give them a few more glances.
At the dining table, Su Yang asked Shen Jinghe if he had any work arrangements for today, and Shen Jinghe said no.
Wen Yan's brain immediately became active.
"Since Second Brother doesn't have work and won't leave today, why don't we have a garden barbecue? What do you think, Mom?"
The others probably didn't want to set up a gathering, but Su Yang was willing to gather everyone. So Wen Yan specifically cued Su Yang.
Su Yang agreed: "Sure, today's weather is nice, neither hot nor cold. I'll have the kitchen prepare the ingredients later, and you can try your dad's barbecue skills. You might not know, but your dad is really good at it. When we were studying abroad, we and a group of friends used to go barbecue on weekends."
Shen Jinghe: ......Even though I don't have work today, who said I'm not leaving??
