Kapitel 3

Wen Cheng: I was really just saying!

After lunch, Aunt Li also prepared dessert, and before leaving, she specifically asked everyone what their taste preferences were.

Aunt Li knew everyone else, but she mainly asked about Wen Cheng.

Wen Cheng smiled shyly, "Aunt Li, I don't ask for much, just a little more is fine."

The Wen family and Aunt Li: ......

So, in the afternoon, Wen Cheng, with her billions of pounds of warmth, sat obediently at the coffee table, watching TV with the family.

The main activity was afternoon tea.

Soft and chewy mango crepes, sweet and sour strawberry mousse, and caramelized and crispy canelés, all served with a cup of warm sweet milk.

I never imagined that Wen Cheng would be living such a life!

Wen Yunyi had no interest in watching TV. He was observing Wen Cheng closely. Her stomach was flat and her waist was very thin. She hadn't bulged out even after eating so much. So where did all the food go?

How did he manage to finish most of the food on the table at noon, and now he can still stuff so many sweets into his mouth?

Compared to myself, I gain weight easily and have to restrain myself from eating every time!

I really want to nitpick, but today's warm orange is impervious to heat and water!

I'm so angry!

"Oh right, I almost forgot, Chengcheng, eat less. We've arranged to meet Qin Zhou's family tonight." Wen Yin immediately called out to Wen Cheng after Wen Qi reminded her.

Qin Zhou?

Wen Cheng frowned, and upon sensing Wen Yunyi's resentful gaze, he instantly knew who it was.

When the original owner was first brought over, she took a liking to Qin Zhou, the most outstanding young man, at the banquet. That's why she was said to have the ability to generate plots. However, she didn't dare to talk to him at the time. When she got home, she told Wen Yin about it. Wen Yin thought that both of them were interested in each other. She also had a good relationship with the Qin family, so she immediately went to propose marriage. The two families hit it off immediately.

As a result, Qin Zhou, who was the last to find out about this, had a big fight with his family. He then unexpectedly met Wen Yunyi, who had just learned about his fake young master identity, at a bar. They hit it off immediately, and the main couple's storyline began from there.

Wen Yunyi and Qin Zhou's relationship definitely cannot be exposed by Wen Yunyi; he will definitely suffer the loss. So, according to the plot of the book, he will be accidentally bumped into by Wen Cheng, and then Qin Zhou will take the initiative to bear everything. Naturally, the engagement will break down unhappily, which will also intensify Wen Cheng's idea of devouring the Wen family.

I almost forgot about this troublesome matter!

"I really envy you, brother, for finding such a good person like Brother Qin. Unlike me, I'm always a step behind others." Wen Yunyi said, clutching the pillow in his hand, his face pale.

They looked as pitiful as could be.

"Qin Zhou is so nice, should I give him to you?"

Wen Cheng's words caused an uproar in the Wen family.

Chapter 3 This is the other price.

Wen Yin was the first to stand up and disagree.

"Chengcheng, what nonsense are you talking about? How can you say such things?!" Wen Yin grew up in a relatively clean environment with loving parents. She was pampered after marrying Wen's father. What she disliked most was the behavior of some wealthy families, such as brothers liking the same person. That was absolutely unacceptable in her family!

Wen Yunyi was also frightened by Wen Yin's attitude. He did not expect his mother to be so resolute, and Wen Cheng's answer was completely unpredictable. She could even say such things against her conscience. Don't think he didn't know how much he liked Qin Zhou!

Wen Cheng was completely bewildered. He was sincere, but unfortunately, no one believed him.

As dinner time approached, the family dressed very formally and went to the hotel.

Wen Cheng, the star of the evening, was dressed up by Wen Yin. She wore a dark blue suit with meticulous attention to detail, even down to the cuffs. Her hair was styled by a professional hairstylist who came to her home. Strangely enough, the house even had a dedicated hairstyling room, comparable to a high-end professional hair salon.

So this is what life is like for the rich!

Wen Cheng almost cried out in delight, completely forgetting that she was supposed to be exploring the grave of marriage today.

The Wen family arrived first, while the Qin family encountered some traffic congestion on the way. They booked the restaurant on the top floor of the hotel, which was surrounded by glass on three sides, offering an unobstructed view of the city's nightscape.

The Wen family occupied exactly half of a large round table.

Wen Cheng lowered her head with a serious, even somewhat solemn expression.

Wen Yin, separated by Wen Yunyi, couldn't quite see what Wen Cheng was doing, but her son's attitude had suddenly improved today, and nothing could stop her from wanting to get closer to her child. "Was Chengcheng nervous today?"

“No, he was just looking at the menu,” Wen Yunyi answered for Wen Yin with a blank expression.

Wen Cheng smiled shyly, a little embarrassed.

The Wen couple: ...Why has this child's focus become so strange?

Suddenly, Wen Cheng's expression changed, and she stood up.

"What's wrong with Chengcheng?" Wen Yongwang looked over with concern.

"Dad, I need to go to the restroom." Wen Cheng clutched her stomach, feeling a bit uncomfortable. Sometimes, the urge to urinate just comes out of nowhere!

They can even politely tell me what they're going to do now? The father sighed, "Go quickly and come back soon. We'll be at the Qin family's house soon."

Wen Cheng nodded and left.

Wen Yongwang watched Wen Cheng's retreating figure with a complex expression.

"This child has changed a lot today," he said, pleased that Wen Cheng was behaving well, but her unusual good behavior seemed a little off.

Wen Yin noticed her husband's concerns, but it was good that the child was getting better. "Maybe he's thinking about seeing Qin Zhou today. You have no idea how much this child loves Qin Zhou. Sometimes love can change a person!"

Wen Yongwang nodded, tacitly accepting this explanation.

Only Wen Yunyi had played with the keychain so much that it was almost deformed.

Screw your love! The last stroke of the character for "love" is all over him, how can you call that love?

Once Wen Cheng stepped outside, he realized just how bizarrely and intricately the hotel was constructed! He cautiously took a few steps, circled around a few times, and successfully got himself completely lost. The worst part was that he couldn't see a single waiter, and his stomach pain was getting worse, like he'd eaten something bad.

But the food at home is absolutely fine.

The key point is that it doesn't mention the original owner having a weak stomach, right? Maybe he was just a minor cannon fodder and didn't deserve the title!

The dense, needle-like pain made Wen Cheng let go of his stubbornness and vow that no matter who he met next, he would ask them how to get to the restroom!

Thinking it over, Wen Cheng took quick, small steps forward.

After navigating several bends and hitting a few walls, Wen Cheng finally spotted two people. One was around forty or fifty years old, grinning with an oily sheen. The other had his back to Wen Cheng, so he couldn't see clearly, but judging from his tall and slender figure, he estimated to be around 187 cm tall. He had one hand casually in his pocket and was talking quietly to the person in front of him.

Just by looking at his aura, you can tell he's not someone to mess with!

Wen Cheng, her face flushed red, bravely rushed forward!

"Mr. Wen, it's just a small gathering. We're not talking business. My friend even brought some handsome young men and beautiful young women. Everyone was very entertaining!"

"Excuse me, how do I get to the restroom?"

Just as Wen Qi was about to retort, his sleeve was gently tugged, and a familiar voice reached his ears. He turned his head to look, his long eyelashes brushing against his lower eyelids, his gaze landing on a head of curly hair. The aloofness emanating from him hadn't disappeared at all; in fact, it had become even more pronounced.

As if sensing something, the little curly-haired boy raised his head.

Then the two of them recognized each other at the same time.

Qi, Brother Qi! Wen Cheng was so frightened by this face and aura that her legs went weak!

It must be said that the author has an excessive fondness for this male supporting character. His near-perfect skeletal structure, his eyes as unfathomable as a deep pool at night, and his overall aura of aloofness perfectly reflect the book's minimalist description of him: the statue was beautiful from the moment it was created, but it lacked emotion.

But Wen Cheng couldn't care less about that now. She bent over, crossed her legs, and said with a flushed face, "Brother Qi, can you take me to the restroom?"

A strange glint flashed across Wen Qi's cold eyes. Before he could speak, the man beside him began to fan the flames with a smile, "Mr. Wen, you're so nagging! You refused so readily because you already had a handsome guy with you. Since the handsome guy asked you to go to the restroom with him, I won't try to stop you. You must come next time!"

His southern accent was quite interesting to listen to.

Wen Qi's face turned cold as he coldly sized up Wen Cheng, not even wanting to pay him any attention. "What are you doing here?"

Wen Cheng clutched her stomach, unable to utter a word for a long time, her bending over becoming increasingly pronounced until she almost squatted down.

"Stand up straight and speak," Wen Qi's handsome brows gradually furrowed.

"Brother Qi, I... I can't stand up straight!" Wen Cheng clutched her stomach, stuttering in pain. This brother of hers was so unreliable! If he could stand up straight, why would he need to bend over like that?!

Mr. Wang smiled knowingly, his gaze intentionally or unintentionally falling on Wen Cheng's slender figure, which was wrapped in a shirt.

Wen Qi subconsciously shifted slightly towards Wen Cheng.

"Wen Cheng, don't make me repeat myself. Stand up straight, I'm taking you to the hospital," Wen Qi took a deep breath and commanded.

Wen Cheng shook her head in pain, her breathing rapid, her eyes even becoming watery. She was already beautiful, but this pitiful expression made her even more alluring.

Wen Qi clenched his fists.

"Mr. Wen, if it's inconvenient for you to bring a handsome guy over, I'm not against it," the man asked enviously, only to be met with Wen Qi's icy gaze.

But he was still smiling. "What does Mr. Wang want to say?"

Mr. Wang is a sensible person. "Ah, I'll say it now, I'll head over first, in case my friends are getting impatient."

Wen Qi withdrew his gaze and scrutinized his younger brother, whom he had disliked from the start. "Wen Qi, stand up straight and come with me to the hospital."

Seeing that the outsiders had left, Wen Cheng stopped pretending. "If I stand up straight, will you wash my pants?!" Wen Cheng roughly wiped away her tears, and goosebumps rose all over her body.

Washing pants, bathroom

Wen Qi paused for a second, then asked, "You went to the restroom to use the toilet?"

"Otherwise what? Isn't the toilet just for using? Or do you have some other idea, Brother Qi?"

Wen Qi's fist, which had been calm for many years, hardened. He realized he had indeed been misunderstood. Wen Qi took a deep breath.

"Go back, turn left, turn right at the second intersection, then go straight to the third intersection. After you see the mirror in the distance, turn left again, and you'll be there."

...This hotel designer must have lived in a maze since childhood!

"Go back, turn left at the second intersection, uh, turn right?" Under Wen Qi's subtle gaze, Wen Cheng promptly changed her answer, truly an excellent fence-sitter!

"After saying all that, you only remembered three words?" Wen Qi stared at Wen Cheng with deathly intensity.

Wen Cheng lowered her head in shame, "I might be a little bad at directions."

Be confident, and eliminate the possibility.

Wen Qi turned around, took two or three steps, and said, "Come with me."

Touched, Wen Cheng followed, and in less than two minutes she saw a luxurious toilet sign.

Wen Cheng saw hope in the restroom and rushed past Wen Qi into the toilet.

"Thanks, Brother Qi!"
