Chapter 73: Actually, He Gets Tired Too
"As you all know, it has been proven that Shen Zhirou is not our biological sibling. As for who she really is, I will find out," Shen Jingxiu said, rubbing his temples with annoyance.
In fact, he had spent a lot of money to investigate as soon as the report was released. However, an entire afternoon had passed without any news from the other party.
He knew very well that it wasn't easy to uncover something that had happened many years ago.
Therefore, he made a request to Wen Yan and Shen Jinghe, who were sitting across from him.
"Let's discuss something," he said.
"Alright, big brother, go ahead," Wen Yan, who was reading the report, quickly put it away upon hearing Shen Jingxiu's words.
Although Shen Jinghe did not speak, he also looked towards Shen Jingxiu.
Shen Jingxiu continued seriously, "Until we discover the true identity of this impostor or find out the whole truth about this matter, I hope that we can keep it a secret from our parents for now. Let's not expose it prematurely in front of the impostor, so as not to alert them. What do you think?"
Knowing that Shen Jinghe wouldn't respond, Shen Jingxiu directly turned to Wen Yan, seeking her opinion.
Wen Yan immediately nodded and agreed, "Alright, I completely agree!"
In fact, she had always done so.
Su Yang had suffered from severe depression after losing her daughter, to the point of attempting suicide multiple times. The family knew about this.
Shen Jinghe, of course, had no objections.
However, he hadn't prepared himself to speak to Shen Jingxiu, so he simply nodded.
But that was enough, as long as they reached an agreement.
"Okay, you can remove your makeup and change your clothes now," Shen Jingxiu said as soon as he finished speaking.
As soon as he spoke, Shen Jinghe eagerly stood up.
However, this time Shen Jingxiu didn't courteously get up to open the door for them.
Wen Yan glanced back at him and noticed that he had his head down, his slender fingers intermittently pinching his temples, exhaustion evident on his face.
[As the eldest brother of the family, it seems like he really has it tough. I handed this difficult matter to him, and the first time he learned the result of the paternity test, I was happily acting. Now he can't say anything to our parents, how much pressure is he under? I feel sorry for him.]
Shen Jingxiu was indeed feeling tired.
He never expected that the daughter his parents had been searching for all these years turned out to be an imposter. It was like something out of a melodramatic TV show.
At the same time, he felt a strange sense of grievance.
Yes, actually, these years he had been exhausted from taking over the company's affairs upon returning to the country. Every day, his first task upon waking up was work, work, overtime, and socializing.
However, in the eyes of others, his first impression seemed to always be that of a high and mighty, cold CEO. People always saw his status and privileges first.
It seemed that no one ever thought he was just an ordinary human being with physical and mental limits, that he too could get tired and exhausted.
Except for his mother.
And now, it seemed that there was also Wen Yan.
Shen Jingxiu was already too tired to say anything, but the small warmth in Wen Yan's thoughts slightly revitalized his tired body.
He looked at Wen Yan and asked, "What is it? Do you have anything else to say?"
"Um!"
Actually, she hadn't thought of anything else to say.
But Wen Yan's physical reaction was much faster than her thought process. As soon as Shen Jingxiu finished speaking, she immediately nodded.
Then, after a long moment of Shen Jingxiu's gaze, she finally came up with something to say.
"I want to remind you, big brother, because we didn't mention it just now. That is, the impostor Shen Zhirou's adoptive parents. They are already applying for visas to go abroad, right? I think if we have the means and ability, we should try to obstruct them. We must not let them escape smoothly. Otherwise, it will be difficult to find them again."
"Um," Shen Jingxiu nodded, "I've already considered what you said, so don't worry."
Wen Yan smiled, "That's good, big brother always thinks ahead. I'll leave first."
"Go ahead," Shen Jingxiu nodded slightly at Wen Yan, unintentionally softening his tone.
During dinner, none of the three showed any unusual behavior.
Wen Yan was still the cheerful one, bringing up Shen Zhirou with a smile and never saying anything negative about her.
To make Su Yang even happier, Wen Yan suggested having a dessert after dinner.
There wasn't enough time to make it in the kitchen, so Wen Yan ordered from the shop she always visited.
Su Yang loved the taste of the desserts from that shop, a taste that couldn't be replicated at home.
When Shen Jing and Hu suddenly heard that the two ladies had some cake to eat, they were tempted, even though they were already upstairs preparing to go back to their rooms.
So, someone took out their phone and sent a message to Wen Yan.
"Don't forget who drove you back tonight. Don't you want to show any gratitude?"
"So, Second Brother, you want dessert too?"
"It's not that I really want it, but I want to see if you have the thought to show some appreciation when the opportunity presents itself."
"............" Wen Yan was instantly at a loss for words.
[This Shen Jing and his tough mouth takes the prize! The big boss is known for not liking sweets, but if I order for Second Brother, should I also order for the big boss?]
Suddenly inspired, Shen Jingxiu internally commented: Matcha flavor, thanks. Last time it was strawberry flavor, this time I want to try something different.
However, he hadn't decided how to ask for it when Wen Yan inquired.
But soon, he no longer had to worry about it.
Wen Yan did ask if he wanted one too, but before he could answer, Su Yang rejected on his behalf.
"The cake isn't necessary for your big brother, he's like your dad, not a fan of sweets. Second brother likes them, so get one for him. By the way, what did you say you would recommend for me?"
"Oh, this one looks good."
Shen Jingxiu quietly got up and went upstairs. He was usually busy with work and didn't have time for the last course of a meal, even when dining alone at a Western restaurant.
He sighed silently in his heart, thinking that perhaps it was time for him to take some time to enjoy life.
Since the villa area where the Shen family lived was far from the city center, it took about an hour for the delivery to arrive.
After taking out the desserts for Su Yang and herself, Wen Yan immediately ran upstairs with the paper bag.
She first knocked on Shen Jing's door.
