But when it came to Wenyan, he just couldn’t help but ask for a clear explanation.
Wenyan had no intention of hiding anything from Shen Jingxiu.
However, she knew it was still early.
So she asked, “But Big Brother, aren’t you sleepy? It’s still so early. Are you sure you don’t want to sleep a bit more? Oh right, were you woken up by me? I just knocked over a basin, the sound was deafening, it even scared me.”
“No, I’m still not completely adjusted to the time difference, so I’ve been sleeping lightly,” he replied.
Wenyan nodded, “So that’s it. Well, since you’re not sleeping, why not keep me company for a chat? Let me tell you about the dream I had last night.”
“What is it? Is there anything I can help you with?” he asked.
“Hmm… yes, help me fill that clay pot with some water and boil a few tea eggs,” she said.
“Alright.”
“Here’s an apron for you. Be careful when you add soy sauce to the tea eggs later, so it doesn’t splash on you.”
Neither of them were novices in the kitchen.
Shen Jingxiu often cooked for himself while studying abroad, so he was quite adept at these tasks.
Although Wenyan was not particularly experienced in cooking, she could still stir-fry dishes.
The two chatted while cooking together, which looked busy yet comfortable.
During the conversation, Wenyan mostly spoke while Shen Jingxiu mainly listened.
While listening, Shen Jingxiu suddenly caught a glimpse of Nanny Zhang at the kitchen door.
At first, Nanny Zhang was incredibly shocked to see the two people in the kitchen.
However, she didn’t dare to interrupt their animated conversation with a sound.
Shen Jingxiu did not want a third person to suddenly appear at this moment either.
He silently gave Nanny Zhang a look, signaling her to leave.
Nanny Zhang nodded and left as quietly as she had come.
Until Wenyan finished talking about her entire dream and her own thoughts, she had no idea that Nanny Zhang had been there.
“That’s the situation, so I’ve decided to meet him and take the letter I retrieved from Director Wang to him. I need to sort this matter out quickly, as I have to return to the film set in a couple of days.”
Shen Jingxiu nodded, “I respect your decision. I’ll drive you there later. That area is too remote, and I’m not comfortable with you going alone.”
Wenyan considered it for a moment, “Actually, I could drive there myself. But I might end up talking with him for a while, and if you come, you’ll just have to wait for me. I’m afraid you’ll be bored.”
“I’m not afraid of being bored, and I can find things to do for myself,” he responded.
“Well, that’s true, you just need a phone. I really appreciate your help today. You can go back to your room to change now, and I’ll prepare breakfast for both of us.”
As she spoke, Wenyan conscientiously began untying the apron from around Shen Jingxiu’s waist.
Shen Jingxiu intended to offer to make breakfast so she could rest instead.
But seeing her quickly move behind him, he simply stood still and did not move.
He allowed Wenyan to take off and neatly fold his apron before turning around to face her.
“What would you like to eat? I’ll cook it,” he offered.
“Isn’t there ready-made food? The tea eggs will be ready, and then I’ll just heat up a few slices of toast. The toast is store-bought and in the fridge, it’s not troublesome. You better go now, you can just go to the dining room later.”
It was rare for Wenyan to personally cook, and she felt a sense of achievement looking at the few home-cooked dishes.
“Oh no!” At that thought, she suddenly voiced her annoyance, “I forgot to bring my phone down. Geez, so typical of me.”
Shen Jingxiu knew her all too well: “Do you want to take photos? Use mine. I’ll send them to you after taking them.”
While talking, Shen Jingxiu already handed over his phone to Wenyan.
Wenyan didn’t refuse; it indeed solved the problem.
New novel 𝓬hapters are published on ƒreewebɳovel.com.
“Okay, thanks, Big Brother. But your phone is still locked, how will I send it to myself?”
Shen Jingxiu didn’t hesitate and immediately recited a string of numbers.
“That’s the passcode,” he said.
He spoke so quickly that Wenyan barely had time to pass the phone back for him to unlock it himself.
This pleasantly surprised Wenyan.
She waved the phone at Shen Jingxiu, jokingly, “You’ve given me your password? If something from your phone gets leaked, I won’t be able to clear my name.”
Shen Jingxiu chuckled softly, “What secrets could I have that you can’t know about?”
“Who knows, it could be company secrets,” she teased.
“The company belongs to the Shen Family, and you are a member of the Shen Family, so it’s okay for you to know,” he assured.
Wenyan: [Hmm, Big Brother’s words are getting sweeter by the minute, I’ll add an extra egg for him later and peel it myself]
