Before Wenyan’s recording session, Shen Jingxiu had been in a car accident.

However, after a month of recovery, his injured leg had healed.

When Wenyan got in touch with him, he was on a business trip abroad, and he had already arranged the chartered flight itinerary while overseas.

After landing, He Xing came to pick up Wenyan because she had already been scheduled for work that day.

Shen Jingchuan was also busy with his club.

By the time Wenyan returned to the Shen Family villa, it was already two days later.

This time she planned to give Su Yang a surprise, so she had not notified her in advance.

Therefore, Su Yang was slightly shocked when she saw her.

“You girl, not even a word before you come back. If I had known you were coming, I would have asked the kitchen to make more of your favorite dishes,” Su Yang said.

“No need to trouble yourself!” Wenyan had already washed her hands and sat down at the dining table, “I like the dishes that are already here.”

“If I had known you were coming back, I would have asked your elder brother to come home for dinner too; he might still be working overtime at this hour.”

Su Yang always liked a lively home, and as she spoke, she had already taken out her mobile phone.

Wenyan had not been in contact with Shen Jingxiu for several days and couldn’t help asking upon hearing this:

“Elder brother is back from abroad?”

“Yes, he came back this afternoon. He went straight to the company even before overcoming jet lag. He’s been having airplane meals for two out of three meals a day, I don’t even know what he plans to eat tonight. I’ll call him now and tell him to come back.”

But before Su Yang could dial, Shen Yuan stopped her:

“I think it’s better to leave it for today; he just came back from a trip and has a lot of important matters to deal with in the country. Next time we will call the other children back as well for a family dinner. What do you say?”

Su Yang frowned slightly, “Important matters?”

“Mm, a few big projects.”

“Sigh, alright then,” Su Yang sighed, “When we were younger, I looked forward to you spending more time with me and the kids, but you were always working overtime. Now that you’ve delegated your authority, I wish our son would spend more time with me, but he is also working overtime.”

“Let’s wait for a couple of days; we will call all the kids back then.”

“It’s not that easy, they are all incredibly busy.”

It wasn’t so much a complaint from Su Yang; it was just the reality.

Shen Yuan could only hold Su Yang’s hand and comfort her with a few words, “Young people, you know, they have their own career aspirations, which is a good thing.”

Su Yang snorted and shook off Shen Yuan’s hand.

“Now you think having career ambitions is a good thing. I told you to support Jingchuan before, but you refused. Now you’re willing, but your son doesn’t need it anymore.”

Wenyan, who was on the sidelines, interjected, “What’s up, Mom? Has Dad decided to invest in fourth brother? But as far as I know, fourth brother has already raised enough capital.”

“Yes, your father called your fourth brother a couple of days ago, hoping to use it as a chance to bridge the gap. But your fourth brother said he didn’t need it and hung up the phone.”

Wenyan offered forced reassurance, “…Maybe fourth brother has just been really busy lately. One day, I sent him a message during the day, and he didn’t reply until the middle of the night.”

“Let’s not sugarcoat it, this is your father’s fault. Let’s eat, the food is getting cold.”

According to their old habits, even in the cold winter, Su Yang and Shen Yuan would take a walk in the garden after dinner.

But today, Su Yang was annoyed with Shen Yuan, so she simply canceled this activity and started watching television with Wenyan instead.

It was an outdoor survival program from abroad.

Su Yang had not been interested in these kinds of variety shows before and didn’t even know survival in the wild could be made into variety shows, but ever since she watched her own child’s program, she became a fan.

Regrettably, that program was not updated tonight.

Wenyan didn’t want to dampen her spirits, so she suggested an alternative.

“By the way, Mom, there’s an award ceremony on tonight, and second brother is attending. How about we watch that? I’ll cast it from my phone to the screen.”

“That would be good, I haven’t seen your second brother since we parted at the hospital that time.”

Wenyan immediately took out her phone and tinkered with it for a bit.

But as it was live, they couldn’t choose the content they wanted to watch.

When Wenyan started casting the ceremony to the screen, it wasn’t yet Shen Jinghe’s turn to go on stage to present the award.

As they watched, Su Yang commented on the jewelry worn by the female celebrities, as it was her line of work.

After looking at a few, Su Yang couldn’t help but express a wistful thought, “When will you, Yanyan, also go on stage to receive an award? When that happens, you can pick any from the jewelry I’ve collected. I’ve saved many fine pieces that are too glamorous to wear without a proper occasion; it would be nice if you could wear them.”
