Chapter 292: Chapter 207: The Less You Know, the Better_3
Thinking of this, Shen Jinghe imdiately spoke up to explain to Wenyan, “I was actually just joking with you, I was already planning to fold back.”
“Hmph! Bad second brother, later when we eat noodles, you have to give all the at in your bowl to !”
Wenyan couldn’t vouch for others in the family, but she certainly was the one who could take a joke the best.
Knowing she said this, Shen Jinghe also knew she didn’t take the matter to heart.
Still, Shen Jingxiu cautioned, “There should be a limit to joking.”
“Exactly!” Wenyan chid in, “Eldest brother is the best.”
Hearing the noise, Shen Jingchuan, who still had an apron tied around his waist, ca to the staircase with a pair of chopsticks in hand.
“If I’m the best, then how about the person who’s cooking noodles for you right now; where do I rank?”
Wenyan: “…” A wise man does not fight when the odds are against him, “You’re the first.”
“I’m the first, so where does ‘the best’ rank then?”
“Tied for first.”
“I’m convinced by you. Then what about the second brother?”
“Um, also first.”
“Alright, I’m truly convinced by you. You really are a master at pouring water, what a perfectly level bowl you’ve delivered.”
Wenyan: “You flatter .”
Shen Jinghe: “…” Why do I feel a bit guilty?
Later, during the noodle al, he not only gave all his chicken strips to Wenyan but also gave away all his greens; he ended up eating a bowl of plain, unremarkable noodles himself.
Shen Jingxiu had already eaten lunch at the company, so he didn’t join the three of them for the al.
After everyone had finished eating, Shen Jingxiu called Wenyan over.
“Let
introduce you to two people.”
“Who are they?”
“Bodyguards. I don’t think it’s safe for you to only have a frail female assistant by your side. I’ve found two experienced security personnel for you; they will ensure your safety and prevent incidents like last night from happening again.”
Wenyan initially wanted to refuse, after all, no one in the whole crew worked with bodyguards around.
But then she thought it over; nobody in the crew had been kidnapped while working either.
Accepting these two bodyguards didn’t just ensure her own safety but also reduced trouble for her family, so why not?
“Alright, then thank you, eldest brother!”
“Don’t ntion it,” Shen Jingxiu looked down at Wenyan, a smile tinting his dark eyes, “Aren’t I the first in your heart? Doing this little thing for you is nothing. I can’t let down such high praise from you.”
Wenyan: [Mommy, the icy elder brother can joke too, and he’s all about action, love it. Seems like I should keep dishing out the flattery.]
Shen Jingxiu imperceptibly curved his lips upward; apparently, she liked n of action.
–
That very afternoon, Wenyan returned to the crew.
Seeing her accompanied by two stoic-faced bodyguards didn’t surprise anyone, as the news of her being kidnapped the night before had already spread throughout the crew.
If it weren’t for the director’s strict orders to keep it under wraps, the news would probably have gone viral by now.
When Wenyan showed up, Jiang Wanwan imdiately found her.
“I just got back to the crew, but as soon as I arrived, I heard that you were kidnapped last night. Is that true?”
“Sigh,” Wenyan sighed, “as expected, everyone knows. It’s true.”
“Who did it?”
“Fu Anxian.”
“Her? Why? Just because you didn’t go to the dinner she hosted that day?”
Wenyan cut to the chase and told Jiang Wanwan the whole story in the briefest possible way.
After listening, Jiang Wanwan frowned deeply: “That’s despicable. But don’t worry, I’ve avenged you.”
“Thanks for standing up for , Wanwan, but I don’t want to drag you into this. Mainly because my family is already taking care of it.”
“So how do they plan to handle it?”
“I’m not sure about that.” Wenyan spread her hands, “I did ask them, but they told
the less I know, the better, so they simply didn’t tell .”
“I see, then I understand. Can I ask who’s dealing with the matter? It couldn’t possibly be Shen Jinghe, right?”
“Um, it’s not him. It’s my eldest brother.”
“Then could you give
your elder brother’s contact? I’d like to talk to him.”
“Why?” Wenyan was curious; she never beat around the bush, “You’re looking for my elder brother, but it’s not just to avenge , is it?”
