Chapter 331: Chapter 220 Chapter 331: Chapter 220 âShen Jingchuan, you could raise your voice a bit more, so I wouldnât have to go to the hospital for any future puncture procedures, I could just find you directly.â
âStill with the smart mouth!â A hurried and flustered Shen Jingchuan immediately let go of Wenyan and fiercely rubbed the top of her head a few times.
âWith such a major event happening, why didnât you contact us? Is my phone not going through? I didnât receive any calls or messages from you.â
Wenyan rubbed her nose, âIt looks like you already know about the recent events, so you should also know that I didnât have time. I had no signal for the internet and texts in the mountains before, and then I was so busy doing a live-streamed paternity test that I didnât even have time to sleep. As for not answering your callsâŠâ
Wenyan quickly took out another phone from her bag.
Upon checking, she immediately apologized, âHeehee, sorry about that, I had this phone on silent and forgot to turn the sound back on, so I missed your calls.â
She casually scrolled through the phone, âMm, the eldest brother also called me. Heâs probably still on a business trip abroad, isnât he?â
âBullshit! You scared the hell out of us, and he rushed back home overnight.â Shen Jingchuan said as he held Wenyanâs face and turned her in a different direction.
Wenyan blinked and suddenly realized that Shen Jingxiu was standing right beside them.
âThe eldest brother came too?â
Shen Jingxiu âhmmâed, his brow furrowed, âIâve been busy and didnât have time to go online these days, I found out about this late. I couldnât get through to your phone, so I contacted the bodyguard, and he told us that you were here.â
âRight! We just happened to be coming from the airport, and it was on the way here,â Shen Jingchuan added to clarify.
âSo thatâs it.â Wenyan nodded, âThen I should thank my two brothers for their concern. I intended to handle the situation myself first before notifying you. I hope I didnât cause any delay for your important matters.â
âAll that is not important.â Shen Jingxiu walked over and stood beside Shen Jingchuan, the two brothers placing Wenyan behind them, âDid you come to find that Wen Chengcai?â
âWell⊠not exactly. Since you guys are here, you might as well join me. I was in the middle of discussing important matters when you interrupted.â
As she spoke, Wenyan wriggled through between her two brothers, squeezing out from between them.
âEldest brother, fourth brother. I know youâre worried about me, but this is something only I can do, neither of you could replace me.â
Having said that, Wenyan turned her gaze back to the brother opposite her.
âShall we go in and talk about it?â
âOkay.â The third brother agreed, turned around, and quickly tidied up the room.
Soon, the four of them sat down in the cramped and messy tin shack.
Wenyan turned her phone back on and handed it to the third brother.
âTake a look in my photo album, see if it contains what youâve been searching for.â
Seeing the black and white photo of Wenrou on Wenyanâs phone, the third brother stood up in agitation, with such force that even the chair toppled to the ground.
âHow do you have this photo?â
Wenyan didnât respond to his question, instead saying, âKeep on flipping through. Thereâs a photo of a letter after that. See if you recognize the handwriting.â
The third brother rapidly found the letter Wenyan was talking about.
He recognized it at first glance, âThis is Xiaorouâs handwriting. Is this a letter she wrote to me? She had a daughter for me???â
The affirmation in the third brotherâs first sentence was stark compared to the sheer shock in the last two.
âHow could this be, how could she?!â
The third brother stood frozen in place.
He said no more, the dramatic heaving in his chest was the only thing moving.
Shen Jingxiu and Shen Jingchuan, hearing the word âdaughter,â exchanged glances, their brows deeply furrowed.
After some time, the third brother found his voice once more.
His hand holding the phone trembled as he looked at Wenyan, staring directly at her, having forgotten how his expression might frighten others.
âHow do you have a photo of this letter, where did you take it, and where is the letter? Can I see it, please?â
As he spoke, Wenyan clearly saw two large teardrops slide from the third brotherâs uneven eyes.
He was crying!
And he even said âpleaseâ to her.
He seemed⊠not as heartless or unfeeling as Wenyan had imagined.
But perhaps, it was just belated passion or regret.
So, Wenyan maintained a seemingly unmoved appearance.
âThis letter was brought out by Wen Chengcai, and he uploaded the photo to the internet. He seems to know quite a bit about your past, which makes me want to ask, what exactly is your relationship with him?â
