Chapter 132: Chapter 125: Is Mental Illness Contagious? (4000 words)_3 Chapter 132: Chapter 125: Is Mental Illness Contagious? (4000 words)_3 Shen Jingchuan was hot-tempered and spoke somewhat hastily, yet every word came from the bottom of his heart; his eyes even reddened as he spoke.
Wenyan had been all smiles, but upon hearing Shen Jingchuanâs words, she felt a sudden tightness in her chest. However, it quickly dissolved into a warm current that flowed gently into her limbs and bones.
Itâs no wonder that when Shen Jingchuan carried her into the car, she thought she smelled barbecue. She had thought it was an illusion, but it turned out to be real.
âSorry for making you worry, and thank you,â
ââŠâ Shen Jingchuanâs heated emotions were abruptly interrupted by Wenyanâs mumbled words.
âYou should give your tongue a rest and type instead. You donât need to thank me, youâre pretty formidable yourself. Even if I hadnât arrived in time, you would have handled it. Iâm the one who should be saying thank you, for your five million.â
The emotionless robotic female voice said, âNo need, no need, Iâm almost embarrassed by your thanks, but that was what I owed you anyway.â
âI told you itâs not a debt. Consider that five million an investment; youâll get dividends when there are profits. Now tell me, how exactly did that Qiao person threaten you?â
Wenyan: ââŠâ Damn it, the conversation had circled back to that question.
The emotionless robotic female voice: âIs the soundproofing in here good? No one else can hear us, right? Are there people coming and going outside?â
âNo, itâs VVIP. I paid big money for it.â
The emotionless robotic female voice: âCanât I just not tell you?â
âWhat could you possibly have that canât be said? I already know about your amnesia, do I care about that little bit more?â
Wenyan: Putting drugs in the family eldest brotherâs drink is no small matter.
In the end, she chose to type, avoiding converting text to speech.
Upon reading her message, Shen Jingchuan was beside himself.
He was rendered speechless for a few seconds before he found his voice again.
âWhat did you just say about thinking bigger? This is quite the âbig pictureâ youâve played⊠Were you assimilated by that Qiao person back then, can mental illness be contagious?â
Wenyan gestured with her hand, signaling Shen Jingchuan to hand back the phone.
Then that emotionless robotic female voice once again filled the air.
âYou said it yourself, it was back then. I was indeed too impulsive and not very smart, but I didnât go through with it later on. I lied to Qiao Kexin, just wanted to numb her, to play her.â
âShe sure knows how to pick them, do you know what the consequences would have been if you had really gone through with it in a moment of folly?â
Wenyan was of course aware of the consequences; she knew even before she was transmigrated into the book because drugging Shen Jingxiu crossed a line for the Shen family, which led to her being outed and eventually driven to despair and suicide.
âYou would have had a miserable death. Donât even think about such rotten ideas ever again!â
âOf course, I wonât think about it now, and besides, itâs not like Iâm going to be kicked out of the Shen family anymore.â
âNext time something like this comes up, come straight to me. If thereâs someone in this family you absolutely have to rely on, your first choice should definitely be me, got it?â
Wenyan: [Sob, heâs so good!]
âBecause the others might not bother with you.â
Wenyan: [Thatâs not necessary, itâs not impossible, Shen Jinghe might also be an option.]
Speaking of Shen Jinghe instantly summoned him.
Shen Jinghe, who had just reached the door of the hospital room, breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing Wenyanâs inner voice.
As long as sheâs breathing, there shouldnât be any major problems.
Shen Jinghe quickly pulled down his black mask concealing his face and quickly entered the room, pushing the door open.
Wenyan and Shen Jingchuan were both startled for a moment.
However, they quickly recovered.
Smiling, Wenyan raised her hand that wasnât connected to an IV drip and waved at Shen Jinghe.
Shen Jingchuan, on the other hand, turned his head away, not making any eye contact with Shen Jinghe.
Upon seeing Wenyan with a mask on, her hand attached to an IV drip, and several red marks on her neck, Shen Jinghe immediately went to her side.
He stood by the bed and slowly reached out to lift Wenyanâs mask: âLet me see.â
Wenyan quickly waved her hands at him and turned her head to the side.
Shen Jinghe was shocked to see her react like this.
âWhatâs wrong? Why arenât you speaking?â
After speaking, he remembered that Wenyan couldnât speak properly and turned to Shen Jingchuan.
âWhat happened to her? Whatâs the trouble?â
Shen Jingchuan looked at Shen Jinghe with sparks in his eyes: âThatâs the attitude you have when asking me for information?â
âShen Jingchuan!â Shen Jinghe was starting to get angry, âIs this really the time for you to be throwing a tantrum?â
Oh! Calling him out on throwing a tantrum?! Forget it, itâs all for Wenyan.
âShe was drugged, and to stay conscious, she sprayed anti-wolf spray into her own mouth. Now her tongue is swollen, and her mouth is like two strings of sausagesâshe canât talk.â
Wenyan: [Thank you, at least you donât know that I drool when I open my mouth.]
Shen Jingchuan: âŠToo late, I already know.
Upon hearing this, Shen Jinghe furrowed his brows and asked Wenyan, âWas it done by that guy impersonating Hou Wenbin?â
??? Shen Jingchuan stood up abruptly from his chair, his fists clenched with tension: âYou knew about this the whole time?!â
