Chapter 172: You Are My Goddess of Luck

Turning back to see Wen Yan still happily taking photos with the candied fruit skewer bouquet, Shen Jingchuan clenched his teeth even tighter.

Having money truly made all the difference!

Coming to participate in this embarrassing show this time had directly cost him 30 days!

Once he got back this time, he absolutely had to seize the time to work on his career.

Wen Yan was adjusting her camera angle with her phone when she caught sight of Shen Jingchuan pulling a long face. She immediately picked a candied fruit skewer from the bouquet and held it out to him.

"What's wrong? Your face is practically screaming 'Clueless and Unhappy.'"

"??? Unhappy is fine, but how on earth did you see 'clueless'?"

"I can see it with the naked eye! Don't believe me? See for yourself. Keep this exact expression, don't change it—I'll open the phone camera and you'll know."

Soon, two faces appeared on Wen Yan's phone screen.

Shen Jingchuan knitted his brows, took a close look, and said, "Still super handsome."

"That doesn't stop you from being clueless though. Here, have a skewer. I picked a multi-colored mixed fruit one especially for you."

Multi-colored again!

Shen Jingchuan clicked his tongue, finding it funny himself:

"We're never getting past this, are we? What's the point of taking photos with just these flowers? You should be taking photos with a handsome guy. Hand the phone over, I'll take it—my arms are long."

"Alright!" Smiling, Wen Yan handed the phone over. "You really are handsome and fully aware of it, you actually like taking photos quite a bit."

"Ordinary people wouldn't even get the chance to take a photo with me, so count your blessings."

"Oh, then it's truly my honor," Wen Yan said, flashing a peace sign.

Shen Jingchuan shot her a glance: "Tacky."

With that, he tapped his own shoulder: "Lean over here."

Wen Yan's face was full of question marks: "Is doing this somehow not tacky?"

"Anything connected to me has nothing to do with tackiness, alright? Hurry up and lean over—offer expires soon."

As Shen Jingchuan spoke, he adjusted the angle and snapped a whole burst of continuous shots.

After a moment's thought, he picked his favorite photo and sent it over to his own phone.

"Tsk tsk, so handsome. Too handsome—can't resist saving it."

"...Narcissist. By the way, why didn't you tell me last night about chartering the plane?"

"Nonsense! If I told you, where would the surprise be? How can you not be romantic at all? Speaking of which, do you feel like I, as your Fourth Brother, am a bit inadequate compared to Big Brother?"

"Of course not," Wen Yan said in surprise. "Why would you think that? Why are you comparing yourself with Big Brother? Don't you two have a pretty good relationship?"

"But I'm just not as exceptional as Big Brother. Even though I could buy you a first-class ticket, this is chartering a whole plane, it's different."

"Just because of this? If you want, I can take out a sum of money to charter a plane for you too. If you're comparing financial power with Big Brother, let alone you, except for Mom and Dad, the rest of us combined probably couldn't match him. By the way, what's wrong with you? In my memory, you were overflowing with confidence—how come you're suddenly feeling so insecure now?"

"Sigh!" Shen Jingchuan let out a heavy sigh. "I just suddenly don't want to work hard anymore."

"What do you mean?"

"Big Brother invested a sum of money into my venture, and Second Brother transferred some funds to me too. Tsk... I just feel like this isn't the result of my own hard work."

Despite saying so, the corners of Shen Jingchuan's lips had already curved upward, completely uncontrollable.

Who could understand? With enough money, he could set sail and launch his career immediately!!

Wen Yan finally caught on: "You were tricking me! You're actually super happy deep down, aren't you?!"

Shen Jingchuan pinched the tip of his pinky finger: "A little bit. Just a tiny bit."

Wen Yan was happy for him too: "This is a good thing, you can be a bit happier."

"Mhm. Speaking of which..." Shen Jingchuan looked at Wen Yan, his expression suddenly turning serious. "I should thank you. I've said it before, haven't I? You are my goddess of luck."

Wen Yan blinked her eyes: "But I didn't really do anything."

"You did, you just didn't notice it yourself." The gaze Shen Jingchuan directed at Wen Yan was incomparably firm. He reached out and wrapped his arms around her in a hug, "Thank you, really."

Wen Yan froze for a brief second before raising her hand to gently pat Shen Jingchuan's back twice:

"No need for thanks, no need for thanks. I'm very happy staying with all of you in this family, too."
