Chapter 138 Shen Jingchuan's Anger

As he spoke, he supported himself against the wall and started hopping forward on one foot.

Seeing this, Wen Yan hurriedly stepped forward and supported his arm. Although she knew that Shen Jingxiu needed rest the most at the moment, she could understand his current state of mind.

They were in the same car, the other two were in the ICU and operating room, and he was the only one with minor injuries. As their boss, he definitely needed to show his support in front of their families.

"I'll support you, Big Brother. Don't push yourself. Just transfer half of your weight onto me," she said.

Shen Jingxiu glanced down at her slender shoulder, unable to harden his heart.

She looked too thin, as if she would collapse under pressure.

So he spoke up, "Then I'll wait until the crutch is ready. The one I had just now wasn't quite suitable, so they took it to exchange."

Wen Yan nodded, "Okay. Where did they go to exchange? Should I go check on it? Medical crutches should be adjustable in height now, right?"

"Good idea. Help me go to the office upstairs and inquire," he said.

"Alright, wait for me. I'll be back soon!" Wen Yan said and quickly left the hospital room.

However, when she reached the elevator, she suddenly realized that she had forgotten her phone.

But when she hurried back, she found that there was no one in the room. Shen Jingxiu and Su Yang were both gone.

She took her phone and walked out of the room, only to see Shen Jingxiu being supported by Su Yang as they headed towards the ICU.

Wen Yan stood still for a moment, feeling somewhat amused and annoyed. She couldn't help but think that Shen Jingxiu was indeed difficult to approach.

She didn't go to the office upstairs because as she turned, she saw someone with a crutch walking towards her. She simply took the crutch and headed towards the ICU.

Sure enough, Shen Jingxiu went to comfort the driver's family. Seeing him apologize and promise to take care of all the driver's medical expenses and compensation for work-related injuries, Wen Yan couldn't help but sigh.

‘Even the cold and aloof Shen Jingxiu shows warmth when faced with a situation. He couldn't even wait for the crutch for a few minutes, so he must also be quite upset. I hope everyone can recover soon.’

Just as Shen Jingxiu finished speaking with the driver's family, he unexpectedly heard Wen Yan's voice in his head.

He didn't know she was here.

He instinctively turned his head to look in Wen Yan's direction.

Through a distance and the passing pedestrians, their eyes met.

Looking into Shen Jingxiu's deep gaze, Wen Yan couldn't help but exclaimed internally, ‘Is he clairvoyant? How did he notice me?’

But soon, Wen Yan realized that Shen Jingxiu probably didn't sense her presence but rather heard her phone ringing because her phone was ringing at that moment.

It was a call from Zhang Sao.

She quickly answered the call, "Hello, Zhang Sao, what's up?"

Zhang Sao said on the other end of the phone, "Madam's phone couldn't get through, I wanted to ask if tonight's family dinner should still proceed as scheduled. It's getting dark."

"Well... could you wait for me to ask my mom? She might not have heard your call as she was busy just now. By the way, have my second and fourth brothers returned?"

"No, they haven't," Zhang Sao replied.

"Neither of them have returned yet?"

"That's right."

"Alright, I got it. I'll go ask and give you an answer soon," Wen Yan said before hanging up.

After ending the call, Wen Yan realized that Su Yang and Shen Jingxiu were walking towards her.

She quickly mentioned Zhang Sao's call to Su Yang.

Su Yang was also a little embarrassed because the current timing was awkward.

Seeing this, Shen Jingxiu directly made the decision for Su Yang.

"Let's dine on time. It's still early now, even if there's traffic, we'll be home in a little over an hour, which is similar to my usual commute time. My injury is not severe, and after the proper fix, I should go home to recover."

Su Yang was convinced by Shen Jingxiu and quickly called Zhang Sao.

Wen Yan also handed the crutch over to Shen Jingxiu and casually asked, "Big Brother, do you still need to visit the special assistant's parents?"

"Yes."

After giving Shen Jingxiu another glance, Wen Yan couldn't help but ask, "Didn't we agree to wait for me to get the crutch? How come you came with Mom as soon as I turned around?"

Shen Jingxiu was slightly taken aback, not expecting Wen Yan to directly ask that question.

He chuckled lightly, "You're too thin, I'm scared of crushing you."

Wen Yan shot him a glare: "So your first thought was to go tell Mom?"

Shen Jingxiu raised an eyebrow slightly; it was the first time he had seen her look at him with that kind of expression.

The smile on his lips deepened: "Actually, I didn't dare lean on her with my full weight. But it's fine now, my crutch has arrived."

By the time the whole family left the hospital, it was already past six o'clock.

Due to the season, the outside had already become pitch black.

After driving for a while, Wen Yan received a message from Shen Jinghe.

"What's going on? None of you are at home?"

Wen Yan: "Didn't Zhang Sao tell you? Eldest brother had a car accident and injured his leg, so we're all at the hospital. We're already on our way back now."

"Car accident? Is he okay?"

"Don't worry, it's just a minor fracture. After proper immobilization, he can go home to rest."

“...I wasn't worried, okay?”

"You're just being stubborn. By the way, has Fourth brother returned?"

"Him? I haven't seen him. Did you tell him?"

"We told him, he's probably still on the way. Just wait at home for a while. The traffic is a bit congested, we'll be back in about half an hour."

"Okay."

However, when Wen Yan and the others arrived home, Shen Jingchuan still hadn't returned.

So Su Yang simply gave him a call.

After learning that he was stuck in traffic, Shen Yuan prepared to talk to Shen Jinghe.

This was also one of his original intentions for organizing this family dinner.

He intended to talk to Shen Jinghe about the plan to establish a film and television company.

Originally, he planned to call Shen Jinghe to his study, but after seeing that Shen Jingxiu was fine after coming back, Shen Jinghe went back to his room on his own.

To show sincerity, Shen Yuan knocked on Shen Jinghe's door.

They talked for quite a while.

Shen Jingchuan came back while they were still talking.

Coincidentally, Shen Jingchuan was about to go back to his room to get something when he heard the conversation between the father and son as he passed by Shen Jinghe's room.

When he heard Shen Yuan eagerly wanting to give the film and television company, which he didn't lack at all, to Shen Jinghe, but Shen Jinghe still refused, he felt really bad.

Back then, when he desperately begged the old man for investment, the old man outright rejected him! There was absolutely no room for negotiation!

Now, he was eagerly offering to give away a company, and the other party didn't even want it.

Shen Jingchuan suddenly felt very wronged and angry, forcefully closing his room door! From the first floor to the second floor, everyone in the family could hear it loud and clear!
