Chapter 624 A Strange Way Of Thinking
The more Xiao Yunyun ate, the more depressed she felt. She soon felt that the crayfish was no longer delicious or spicy.
Shen Yuechuan looked careless, but in fact, he hadn’t moved his attention away from Xiao Yunyun for a moment.
Naturally, he soon noticed that Xiao Yunyun was bored.
He put on the gloves, skillfully peeled a crayfish, and placed it on the plate in front of Xiao Yunyun. “You don’t like it?”
“…”
Xiao Yunyun didn’t say anything. Shen Yuechuan thought she had acquiesced, so he asked tentatively, “Should I ask the chef to change the way of cooking and make another dish for you?”
Only then did Xiao Yunyun realize that Shen Yuechuan was talking to her. She quickly shook her head and said, “No, it’s delicious.”
“Let the chef change the way of cooking… It probably won’t work. I need someone to enlighten my mood.”
However, no one could do it.
Shen Yuechuan stared at Xiao Yunyun and bluntly said, “It’s hard for me to believe that crayfish is delicious from your current state.”
Xiao Yunyun pursed her lips. “I’m just thinking about something. Why not?”
Shen Yuechuan shrugged. “Of course. But you have to tell me, why did you go to the bar with Qin Han? You didn’t like that kind of place before, did you?”
“I’m bored,” Xiao Yunyun said casually, “I don’t know how to spend the time after work, so I followed him there.”
“There are plenty of ways to kill time for a girl.” Shen Yuechuan was both serious and joking. “If I find out that you’re fooling around in a bar with Qin Han next time, I’ll report it to your cousin.”
Xiao Yunyun made a face without fear. “Don’t scare me. My cousin won’t scold me!”
She was already an adult. If she went to the bar, as long as she did not do anything excessive, Su Jian’an would not blame her.
“…” Shen Yuechuan felt a headache and changed the subject. “Aren’t you going to take the postgraduate entrance exam? Why don’t you know how to pa.s.s the time after work?”
“The postgraduate entrance examination will be held in January of next year. Besides, I don’t need to prepare much for it!”
She was confident but not pretentious. There was a lively look in her eyes and brows. She looked so attractive.
Shen Yuechuan suddenly felt that such a little girl was not bad to be his younger sister.
Of course, it would be better if she was not his younger sister.
Seeing Shen Yuechuan lost in thought but looking as if he hadn’t thought about anything, Xiao Yunyun couldn’t help waving her hand in front of his eyes and said, “Don’t you believe that I can get the master’s degree?”
Shen Yuechuan smiled and said, “I do believe! I believe in you as much as I believe in the cooking skills of the chefs here.” Then he peeled another crayfish and put it on Xiao Yunyun’s plate. “Eat it.”
Xiao Yunyun picked up the beautifully-peeled crayfish meat, thought for a moment, and put it down. Then she stared at Shen Yuechuan in confusion and said, “By the way, how did you know that Qin Han and I were in MiTime?”
“Not to mention he just took you to MiTime, I’ll find you as long as I wish to even if he takes you to Mars.” After a pause, Shen Yuechuan suddenly smiled. “However, in the next three months, he won’t come to you again.”
Xiao Yunyun suddenly had a bad feeling. “What did you do to Qin Han?”
Shen Yuechuan didn’t answer. Instead, he asked, “Why do you care so much about Qin Han?”
Xiao Yunyun resisted the urge to roll her eyes at Shen Yuechuan and said, “I’m just afraid that you may break the law!”
There was a smile on Shen Yuechuan’s handsome face. He said, “Oh, so you are worrying about me.”
Xiao Yunyun didn’t know what to say. “…” “D*mn, how could he think about it in such a way!”
Seeing Xiao Yunyun almost broken down, Shen Yuechuan finally told her that he just made a bet with Qin Han and didn’t do anything to him.
“It turns out that your bet is that who failed can’t contact me in three months.” Xiao Yunyun said with interest, “You are really bored.”
“Anyway, I won.” Shen Yuechuan raised his eyebrows proudly, as if he had won an arduous battle.
Xiao Yunyun couldn’t help the desire to discourage him. “What… what if I want to contact Qin Han?”
Shen Yuechuan frowned his eyebrows, and his face became stiff because of unhappiness. “What are you going to find Qin Han for?”
“Qin Han is fun.” Xiao Yunyun counted Qin Han’s advantages as if she had long been familiar with them. “Firstly, he is handsome and has cla.s.sic taste. The key is that he knows where there’s delicious food and where there’s fun! What’s more amazing is that he knows a lot of interesting people!”
“…”
Shen Yuechuan looked disdainful.
As for what Xiao Yunyun had said, he did every one of those better than Qin Han. Not to mention that he was much more handsome. Qin Han was way worse in appearance when compared with him.
However, there were not many people in the world who were as excellent as him. If Xiao Yunyun looked for a boyfriend in the standard of him, she might be single until the next life.
Speaking of that, Han Qiu seemed not too bad.
What if once he stopped Xiao Yunyun from looking for Qin Han, she dated a worse man?
Shen Yuechuan smiled and said, “Qin Han is actually fine among the younger generation.” He gave Xiao Yunyun a positive look and said, “You have a pretty good taste.”
Xiao Yunyun just let out a hollow laugh and couldn’t become happy.
If she had known that this was the result of testing Shen Yuechuan, she might as well not try it.
However, even if the result of the test was what she wanted, so what? They were brother and sister, and it was impossible to change the fact just because of her test.
On the contrary, Shen Yuechuan’s behavior would make her give up.
So, for her at the moment, the bad result was the best.
Thinking of this, Xiao Yunyun snorted. “Of course, everyone I favor is great in character!”
She was not bragging. She was quite good at judging people.
The only accident was that she hated Shen Yuechuan at first, but in the end, she couldn’t help falling in love with him.
This was the biggest mistake she had made in judging people… in her life.
After dinner, the two of them left the restaurant. It was getting late.
Shen Yuechuan opened the door of the car and motioned for Xiao Yunyun to get in the car. “I’ll offer you a ride back home.”
Xiao Yunyun was hesitating about whether to reduce contact with Shen Yuechuan when he walked over and pushed her to the pa.s.senger’s seat.
Shen Yuechuan said, “Don’t hesitate. It’s not easy to get a taxi here.”
Xiao Yunyun complained while fastening her seat belt, “Maybe I want to call someone to pick me up?”
Shen Yuechuan looked at the time and laughed. “At this time, you can’t find your cousin or Jian’an. Your cla.s.smates and colleagues don’t have cars yet, and you are too embarra.s.sed to call them over. Qin Han—is your only choice.”
Xiao Yunyun widened her eyes. “Can’t Qin Han come?”
Shen Yuechuan put down the seat belt and reached out his hand to knock Xiao Yunyun’s head. “A girl should be reserved!”
Xiao Yunyun touched her head and said, “Oh.”
She had never intended to be reserved. However, if being reserved could change the blood relations between her and Shen Yuechuan, she could appear reserved.
Thinking about this impossible thing, Xiao Yunyun tilted her head and fell asleep in the pa.s.senger seat.
Shen Yuechuan soon found that Xiao Yunyun had stopped moving. He turned over and found that she was sleeping like a child.
He stopped the car by the roadside, took the coat that he had casually put aside, and covered Xiao Yunyun with it.
When she was awake, she always looked fierce and aggressive. It was not until she fell asleep that her expression became calm and satisfied, and her breathing became light and gentle that she still looked childish.
However, the person who could take care of her childish side was not him.
He really hoped that the one who would take care of in the future would know her deepest thoughts.
The private restaurant was not far from Xiao Yunyun’s apartment. Shen Yuechuan’s car quickly returned to the apartment downstairs, but Xiao Yunyun was still sleeping soundly.
Shen Yuechuan didn’t wake Xiao Yunyun. He just sat in the pa.s.senger seat and looked at her.
He didn’t know his future, so he didn’t have much chance to look at Xiao Yunyun. What’s more, he originally didn’t have many opportunities to look at her quietly.
Xiao Yunyun didn’t sleep too deep. Maybe she sensed that the car had stopped, so she slowly opened her eyes. However, when she saw Shen Yuechuan’s eyes, she couldn’t help but be stunned.
Shen Yuechuan smiled. “I was just about to wake you up.”
Xiao Yunyun sat up straight and found that she was covered with Shen Yuechuan’s coat. She was confused and asked, “How long has the car been parked here?”
“We just arrived,” Shen Yuechuan raised his eyebrows and said, “If we have been here for a long time, do you think I wouldn’t wake you up?”
“That’s right.” Xiao Yunyun stretched herself. “It’s good enough that you didn’t kick me down. How could you wait here for me to wake up?”
Shen Yuechuan gave Xiao Yunyun a look of appreciation. “That’s right, you know me.”
Xiao Yunyun snorted. “Who knows? I just know very well how ungracious you are!” Then she lifted the coat. “But, thank you.”
“You’re welcome,” Shen Yuechuan said, “I’m not gentlemanly, but you know that I’m a good person.”
Xiao Yunyun rolled her eyes at Shen Yuechuan, opened the door, and got out. She waved to him without looking back. “Goodbye.”
Shen Yuechuan sat in the car, watching Xiao Yunyun’s back without moving. He couldn’t help smiling.
“Good night, idiot.”
After whispering the sentence that Xiao Yunyun couldn’t hear it, Shen Yuechuan started the car and drove back to his apartment.
Back at the apartment, Shen Yuechuan didn’t feel sleepy for a while. He simply turned on the computer, took out the list given by Xiao Yunyun, searched everyone’s information one by one, and sent the list to one person after making sure that everyone was a real expert.
The person on the other side soon replied with a message.
“Special a.s.sistant Shen, you have been contacting me frequently recently. I’m so flattered.”
Shen Yuechuan was too lazy to type word by word. He picked up the phone and replied with a voice message, “Cut the c.r.a.p. I want these people’s contact information and their latest schedule.”
“Got it.” The person said, “I’ll give it to you in half an hour.”
Half an hour was just enough for Shen Yuechuan to wash up. When he returned from the bathroom in a bathrobe, a notification that suggested he had received a new email was shown in the lower right corner of the computer.
He clicked on it and looked at the schedules of the experts whom Xiao Yunyun had chosen. Then he contacted the two who were working in the United States.
After telling them that it was an invitation from the president of Lu Enterprises, it was not so difficult anymore. Both of the professors agreed to come to the country.
But things were not that simple. Shen Yuechuan emphasized on the phone,
“Professor, we are very grateful for what you do, so we will offer you adequate compensation. Our only condition is that you need to sign a confidentiality agreement. There are some things that need to be kept secret, including who you will diagnose, the result of your consultation, and the condition of the child.”
“I understand.” The man promised in fluent English. “Don’t worry, I will never break the confidentiality agreement.”
