âWhat happened?â Qin Xing rubbed Shen Zhenâs ear, and Shen Zhen didnât avoid the touch. He was used to Qin Xingâs touches now, Qin Xing seemed to like to knead his ears and face, but these touches made Shen Zhen feel very comfortable.
Probably because apart from Mama Zhang, no elders have expressed love for him since he was a child, so Shen Zhen felt that Qin Xingâs touches gave him a feeling of being pampered.
Shen Zhen said calmly, âShen Li broke Su Shiqingâs leg.â
âOh?â Qin Xing didnât seem interested, he stroked Shen Zhenâs hair with his hand, and asked softly, âIs Xiao Zhen happy?â
Shen Zhen practically blurted out: âHappy.â
Qin Xing gave a low laugh: âIâm going to send Ah Yue abroad.â
The foreign market really needed someone to keep an eye on it. He couldnât leave now, so it was only natural for Qin Yue to go.
However, the foreign team members were all old employees of Qin Group, so Qin Yue could only watch at most, and couldnât stick his hand in.
All the decisions would still be made by Qin Xing.
âAbroad?â Shen Zhen came to his senses, he wanted to ask Qin Xing if he had given up on Qin Yue? But he didnât ask.
Qin Xing stroked Shen Zhenâs hair: âSince Xiao Zhen doesnât like him, letting him go abroad will not make Xiao Zhen uncomfortable, will it?â
Shen Zhen pursed his lips and smiled shyly. He thought in his heart that Qin Xing couldnât possibly have decided to have Qin Yue go abroad just for him, but even though he thought so, he was still very happy.
It was as if Qin Xing could accept everything about him.
Even if it was just to coax him.
Qin Xing would stay at Shen Zhenâs place for a week. This week was a veritable two-person world. Mama Zhang was ordered by Qin Xing to take care of her own son. Except for the housekeeping auntie who would come to clean the house, there would be no third wheel showing up at home.
âIâll cook.â Shen Zhen stood up a little excitedly. Mama Zhang stocked up a lot of groceries in the refrigerator. Shen Zhen felt that he must have a talent for cooking. Didnât Qin Xing say that the plate of boiled shrimp he made before was delicious? Maybe he was talented at cooking?
Shen âtalentedâ Zhen excitedly guaranteed: âUncle Qin, wait here for a while, Iâll call you when Iâm done.â
Qin Xing didnât stop him, he gently encouraged: âGo, Xiao Zhen is awesome.â
Ai, this feeling of being praised all the time was really great.
Shen Zhen lowered his head and smiled, and then walked into the kitchen. He had already forgotten about Shen Li and could not even remember this person.
After working in the kitchen for an hour, Shen Zhen finally admitted that he had no talent for cooking.
Clearly the electric rice cooker was automatic, but he didnât know which step he made a mistake in that the rice ended up burnt black, and it was impossible to eat.
The cucumber had too much vinegar added, and only sourness could be tasted.
He also cut the meat slices into pieces, but after cooking it with onion it still smelled raw and bloody.
Standing in front of his âmasterpieceâ, Shen Zhen decided to let the trash eat these things.
âWhy didnât you bring it out?â Qin Xing had already walked to the door of the kitchen. He smelled something strange, which obviously didnât smell like food.
Shen Zhen quickly turned around, covering his talented masterpiece, and said with a smile: âLetâs go out to eat.â
Qin Xing walked in, and he said to Shen Zhen, âLet Uncle see.â
Shen Zhen stepped back reluctantly. Qin Xing picked up the chopsticks, and picked up the only decent looking cucumber.
Just when Shen Zhen thought that Qin Xing would spit it out in the next second, Qin Xing swallowed it expressionlessly. Although he didnât smile, he didnât seem to be greatly affected by the sourness. Qin Xing spoke nonsense with a serious face: âNot bad.â
Shen Zhen: ââŚ..But I think itâs better for us to go out to eat.â
Qin Xing might have lost his sense of taste, but his sense of taste had not failed, so it was better not to torture himself.
âLetâs go to Uncle Yangâs.â Shen Zhen went to get his coat and asked, âWhich one are you wearing? Iâll take it out for you together.â
Qin Xing seemed to be still savoring the cucumber, and it took him a few seconds before he answered, âThe gray one.â
When Shen Zhen walked into the room, Qin Xingâs expression became very complicated. He felt that Xiao Zhenâs skills could be used when extorting confessions by torture.
The two went downstairs together. When Shen Zhen passed by the security booth, he found that the security guard had changed. The security guard who took care of Su Shiqing last time and helped Su Shiqing persuade him was gone. Such a confused person, even if he didnât complain, there were also house owners who would complain.
âEldest Brother!â A voice sounded, and Shen Li ran over from the other side of the street. He looked like a stray dog, one who finally saw a bone. His eyes could practically read: pitiful and helpless.
Shen Zhen: ââŚ..â How did the arrogant and unreasonable Shen Li in his memory become like this? Su Shiqing actually had this function?
Shen Li ran up to Shen Zhen, his eyes were moist, and he looked pitiful: âShen Yun and Shen Mu called me, but I didnât answer, I donât want to go back.â
If he went back, he would definitely be pointed and scolded by Shen Yun and Shen Mu, and forced to apologize to Su Shiqing. Maybe his own leg would even be broken to make up for Su Shiqing. He was not stupid, so he would definitely not go back.
But his card was suspended, and he had no money. Just now when Shen Zhen said that he could take him in for a while, he ran over without hesitation.
Shen Li didnât know Qin Xing, he was a standard hedonistic son of a rich family, and because he was the youngest, no one thought that he could head the Shen family in the future. So after returning to China from university, he didnât recognize all the high society people at all. He only played within his own small circle, and was not interested in business, so he didnât even read financial magazines.
âAre you going to eat out now?â Shen Li said shamelessly, âI didnât have lunch, and Iâm hungry.â
Shen Zhen: ââŚ..â Who was this cheeky and shameless guy?
Qin Xing said, âTogether?â
Shen Li didnât think the other was just being polite, so he quickly said: âOkay, okay, what are you going to eat?â
Shen Zhen: âChinese food.â
The driver had already driven the car downstairs. As soon as Shen Zhen walked to the side of the car, Shen Li opened the door ahead of him as if afraid of Shen Zhen regretting, quickly sat on the co-pilot seat, and speedily put on the seat belt.
Although Shen Li had never lived with Shen Zhen, he knew that Shen Zhen had some special insistences, for example, he must wear a seat belt when riding in a car, and he was very afraid of death.
Shen Zhen sat in the back seat helplessly, and Qin Xing sat with Shen Zhen.
Shen Li: âThis car is really nice, Eldest Brother, is this your car?â
Just as Shen Zhen was about to deny it, Qin Xing held Shen Zhenâs hand and said with a smile, âItâs his car.â
Shen Li: âWow, Eldest Brother, have you made a fortune? Iâve always wanted to buy one, but Dad wonât give me the money.â
Shen Zhen wanted to take his hand out of Qin Xingâs hold, but Qin Xing held it tightly, and Shen Zhen didnât want to struggle too obviously. After all, there was Shen Li and the driver in the car, so he could only pretend that nothing happened. He felt a sense of shame and excitement of one having an affair under the nose of others.
Shen Li: âEldest Brother, you donât know what I went through yesterday, no wonder you donât like Su Shiqing, Iâve never seen this kind of person in my life, he really is incomparably shameless.â
Shen Zhen: ââŚ..â His mind was not on what Shen Li said, but on Qin Xingâs hand.
When he was eating kebab yesterday, he didnât feel anything wrong with his hand being held by Qin Xing, but now he felt very shy.
His face was a little red.
âEldest Brother, why are you blushing?â Shen Li brought up what should not be brought up.
Shen Zhen said viciously, âShut up, or Iâll throw you out.â
Shen Li tucked his neck in honestly, and said in a low voice: âShutting up, shutting up.â
Shen Li was still chattering while eating. Qin Xing and Shen Zhen could only watch Shen Li perform a solo. Shen Zhenâs perception of Shen Li was very complicated. To the end of his last life, only Shen Li came to see him and scolded him, while giving him two thousand yuan.
But Shen Li was not doing well in the Shen family at the time. With Su Shiqing around, he became a marginalized person. No one in the Shen family cared about him. He fooled around outside, drinking and drunk driving, and ended up hitting someone. Although he sent them to the hospital, and no one died, but since then it was like he was expelled from the Shen family.
Shen Li scolded him at the time: âWhat are you even capable of! You are forced to such straits by Su Shiqing! Arenât you amazing, Shen Zhen? What use are you even!â As he spoke, he took out two thousand yuan and put it in front of him.
Perhaps it was because they were all deeply harmed by Su Shiqing.
An enemy of an enemy was a friend.
Or maybe Shen Li sympathized with him.
That was why Shen Zhen was willing to give Shen Li a hand now.
Think of it as repaying the kindness of the two thousand yuan.
Shen Zhen felt a little tired. He closed his eyes, leaned on Qin Xingâs shoulder, and said in a low voice, âUncle, Iâll nap for a bit.â
He also had no appetite to eat now.
Qin Xing said softly in his ear, âGo ahead.â
ââ
âHao Yi, it hurts so much.â Su Shiqing grabbed Chu Haoyiâs hand, his face was swollen into a pigâs head, and he looked very shocking. His voice was also very unpleasant, almost like scratchy tape, he said, âHao Yi, help me.â
Chu Haoyi carried him and sat in the car, his eyes were red and his hands were trembling: âDonât worry, you will be fine.â
In the traffic jam, Chu Haoyi held the steering wheel tightly: âWhere is Qin Yue? Where is he? Did he not protect you?â
Su Shiqingâs body was also stiff, yes, why didnât Ah Yue protect him? He bit his lower lip tightly: âMaybe Ah Yue has something urgent?â
Chu Haoyi: âWhat urgent matter is more important than you?!â
Su Shiqing wept softly: âIâŚ..I donât knowâŚ..I donât know why Shen Li did this to me.â
Chu Haoyi squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth: âHis name is Shen Li?â
Su Shiqing quickly said: âI didnât say his name on purpose, maybe he has some unknown reason, I, I donât blame him.â
Chu Haoyi: âShi QingâŚ..donât be too kind.â
Su Shiqing said with difficulty: âI just think that everyone has their own difficulties.â
Chu Haoyi: âI will contact Qin Yue. If he canât protect you in the future, then let me do it.â
Su Shiqing finally had some joy on his face, but when he looked up the next second, his expression became very worried again.
âBut, I donât want to hurt Ah Yue, and Ah Yue didnât expect Shen Li to be like this.â
Chu Haoyi sneered: âHe canât even protect his own lover, Young Master Qin, he is not all he is cracked up to be.â
Su Shiqing remained silent, and after a while he said, âHao Yi, donât deal with Shen Li, okay?â
Chu Haoyi: âShi Qing, donât worry about anything, I know what to do.â
Su Shiqing breathed a sigh of relief, lay down on the back seat, touched his broken leg with one hand, and clenched his teeth.
