Xiao Yaojing leaned against the door, staring at PA Wen. She looked as if she had seen something amusing but there was no mirth in her eyes. Instead, that gaze of hers sent waves of terror straight to PA Wen’s soul.

“Brother, you didn’t pick up when I called but you’re at home, aren’t you?” Wen Shan stared coldly at Mei Yashi and held Xiao Yaojing’s arm right away.

Xiao Yaojing glared at Wen Shan.

Wen Shan tugged her arm and whispered, “You promised me.”

“That was if your brother wasn’t present,” Xiao Yaojing whispered back, struggling in her grasp.

“I don’t care, you promised me.” Wen Shan gripped Xiao Yaojing’s hand tightly, refusing to let go of it.

PA Wen walked toward them at that very moment. “Did you call me? I didn’t hear my phone ring.”

“Won’t you know if you check your phone?” Wen Shan huffed and dragged Xiao Yaojing into the house. “Take our luggage too.”

PA Wen was focusing solely on Xiao Yaojing but realized it was probably best to follow Wen Shan’s order and bring their luggage inside.

Wen Shan dragged Xiao Yaojing into the kitchen and cocked her head while looking at Mei Yashi, “Miss Mei, my brother has a girlfriend that will take care of him, so you don’t have to bother doing the same.”

Girlfriend?

PA Wen nearly tripped while he was putting down their luggage.

Xiao Yaojing covered her face with her palm. Why did Wen Shan always speak so impulsively?

“G… Girlfriend?” Mei Yashi’s voice trembled and she looked at Xiao Yaojing in disbelief.

She was thinner, taller, had a better body, but most importantly: she was prettier.

Since Wen Shan had already said it, Xiao Yaojing could not let her embarrass herself. Inwardly sighing, she went with it and stared at Mei Yashi.

Mei Yashi’s smile was awkward. “I didn’t know that Senior has a girlfriend.”

“My brother isn’t someone famous, if he got a girlfriend, should the whole world know?” Wen Shan scoffed.

“Shan Shan.” PA Wen placed down the luggage and frowned. Although he too disliked Mei Yashi, his sister’s attitude of targeting her was not good.

“Junior, I appreciate your thoughts. Since Shan Shan came back, you should return too,” PA Wen politely said, his tone distant.

Mei Yashi was not dumb either, naturally she would not stay any longer. She sounded like she wanted to be anywhere but there when she laughed it off awkwardly.

After Mei Yashi left, Wen Shan huffed.

“You’re a famous one in the market, still worried about being unwanted?” Xiao Yaojing asked, her tone dripping with sarcasm she did not even know she had.

PA Wen rubbed his forehead, he was extremely tired yet he could not rest.

“I didn’t know she—”

“That’s enough, I don’t care if you knew about it or not,” Xiao Yaojing cut him off, she tapped Wen Shan on her shoulder and left with her luggage without delay.

“Xiao Yaojing—” PA Wen quickly turned around and went after her.

Wen Shan was stunned.

What had just happened? Why did she feel like the atmosphere was off?

PA Wen chased Xiao Yaojing to the elevator, where she was pressing the button while waiting for it. PA Wen stood by her side, out of breath, and said, “Xiao Yaojing, I think this matter—”

“I don’t care what you think. Don’t worry, I was just acting for Wen Shan. She didn’t want this person as her sister-in-law, so you don’t have to explain to me,” Xiao Yaojing turned around and replied with a smile. When the elevator arrived, her expression became ferocious and she left.
