Cry louder, I can't hear you.

Generally, everyone calls Shen Suwei "President Shen," but since Shen Suwei's uncle and grandfather are also present tonight, in order to show respect to the host family, everyone voluntarily added "little" to Shen Suwei's title.

However, despite the addition of the word "small," no one dared to be disrespectful to Shen Suwei in their words.

Yun Qiao noticed it, and Shen Qing's parents naturally noticed it too.

The two were somewhat displeased, knowing that this group of people hadn't come for them tonight, but rather to use their connections to climb up to Shen Suwei!

However, Shen Suwei's glory won't last long.

Now that he is blind and lame, what can he do?

The Shen family will eventually belong to their son.

Those people will regret belittling them in the future.

Thinking of this, Shen Qing's mother felt much calmer, and she continued with a smile:

"As you all know, he's now unable to move around easily, so he probably doesn't want to come out."

Limited mobility?

Are you talking about Shen Suwei?

Yun Qiao was startled, but Shen Qing's mother did not intend to talk about Shen Suwei anymore. She quickly changed the subject and talked about other things.

Yun Qiao hesitated, wanting to ask but afraid they would misunderstand.

After all, she is now Shen Suwei's cousin's fiancée. The relationship is sensitive.

The dress I changed into tonight didn't fit very well.

Yun Qiao stood there listening to them talk for more than ten minutes. She felt a tightness in her chest and whispered to Shen Qing that she wanted to go upstairs to rest for a while.

But Shen Qing said he still needed to see his grandfather.

Yun Qiao had no choice but to endure the discomfort and follow him to see his grandfather.

After being forced to speak with her grandfather for a few minutes, Yunqiao was finally relieved.

She got up and was about to walk towards the stairs when Shen Qing called out to her, "Do you need me to come with you?"

Yun Qiao realized she was going to adjust her breast pads, and it wouldn't be convenient for Shen Qing to come along, so she quickly declined.

"I'll go by myself."

"But there's no one upstairs, aren't you afraid?"

Yun Qiao thought about the corridor she had just passed through and hesitated slightly.

Shen Qing noticed her fear, smiled, and walked closer to her:

"I'll stay with you."

Yun Qiao is now his fiancée, but they haven't even had the most basic interactions like holding hands, hugging, or kissing.

If I say it out loud, wouldn't people laugh at me?

Yun Qiao is dressed so beautifully tonight, it's made him feel hot all over.

There was no one upstairs, which was convenient for him and Yunqiao...

Yun Qiao had no idea what Shen Qing was thinking, but seeing that he had already gone upstairs first, she could only follow helplessly.

However, before Shen Qing even reached the second-floor stairwell, her phone suddenly rang.

He answered impatiently, but his demeanor instantly changed to respectful upon hearing the voice on the other end.

"Okay, okay, I'll go right away. Cousin, please wait a moment."

Cousin?

Yun Qiao paused for a moment.

So, is Shen Suwei calling Shen Qing right now?

Lost in thought, Shen Qing called out to her:

"You go up by yourself. I have something to do. I'll come find you later."

Without waiting for Yun Qiao's reply, he quickly went downstairs.

Yun Qiao glanced back at his departing figure, somewhat puzzled. Were Shen Suwei and Shen Qing so close that he could even order Shen Qing around?

Feeling a tightness in her chest, Yun Qiao didn't have time to think too much. She quickened her pace and went upstairs, finding the lounge that Shen Qing had taken her to earlier, based on her memory.

As soon as she closed the door, she couldn't wait to reach for the zipper behind her.

The dark green velvet skirt was bunched up at her waist. She pinched the zipper pull and tried to pull it down, but it got stuck at her shoulder blade and she couldn't pull it down no matter what she did.

She bit her lip, turned to face the mirror on the wall, and reached up with her other hand to try to help.

Just as they were about to pull down hard, they suddenly heard a very soft sound coming from the room.

Yun Qiao abruptly stopped, quickly crossing her arms to cover her chest and hide what was in front of her.

"Who?!"

"Sorry, I must have gone to the wrong room."

That sound...

Yun Qiao's breathing suddenly stopped.

She hurriedly searched for the source of the sound, and when she turned her head, she saw a familiar man sitting in a wheelchair behind the sofa, staring at her intently.

Shen Suwei...

Yun Qiao stood frozen in place, her hands still clasped to her chest, feeling as if a bucket of ice water had been poured over her, chilling her from head to toe.

"you……"

"I'm sorry, I can't see. Could you take me out of here?"

Yun Qiao was taken aback, and the words she was about to say instantly caught in her throat.

She looked at Shen Suwei in disbelief.

Can't see?

real or fake?

Yun Qiao looked at him suspiciously. He was sitting in a wheelchair, his head slightly tilted, his gaze on her but unfocused, as if he really couldn't see anything.

"Is it too much trouble?"

His voice was gentle, but there was a subtle hint of sadness in his tone.

Yun Qiao frowned even more deeply.

What's going on with Shen Suwei?

Not only is he blind, but he's also lame?

Still so polite?!

"Could you give me directions?" He took a step back and tried to reason with her. "I've been looking around for a long time, but I still can't find the door."

Yun Qiao remained silent for a long time before tentatively speaking:

"Who are you?"

He remained expressionless and obediently answered:

"My name is Shen Suwei, have you heard of me?"

Yun Qiao: ...

Who wouldn't know the name Shen Suwei at this banquet?

But Shen Suwei didn't react at all when he heard her voice.

Does this mean that his memory has been erased by the system and he no longer remembers her at all?

"May I ask your name?"

Perhaps seeing that Yun Qiao was silent, he spoke up again in a very approachable manner.

Yun Qiao looked at him and decided to test him one more time:

"My name is Yun Qiao, and I'm your cousin's fiancée."

"My fiancée..."

He murmured something under his breath.

Yun Qiao's heart leaped into her throat, only to see him slowly curl the corners of his lips into a smile as he "looked" at her.

"Then it seems we're family. Thank you for your help, sister-in-law."

Yun Qiao: ?

You really don't remember?

It's clear that he "looks at" her like she's a stranger, and now he even needs someone to push his wheelchair when he goes out.

Yun Qiao felt an extremely complex mix of emotions.

Yun Qiao looked at him, her throat tightening: "...Wait a moment."

He smiled and said, "Okay."

They are very easy to talk to.

He didn't ask Yunqiao why she had to wait, nor did he urge her.

Completely different from the person who used to look at people with a cold and detached gaze.

Yun Qiao felt a little uncomfortable.

She turned her back and continued to pull the zipper down, which had been stuck on her shoulder blade.

Anyway, Shen Suwei can't see it.

She confidently turned her back to him to adjust her bra and skirt.

The skirt slipped off her shoulders, bunched up at her waist, revealing a large expanse of her bare back.

She readjusted the displaced nipple covers to the correct position, pulled up her skirt, and looked down to make sure the neckline was in place before reaching for the zipper at the back.

She was so focused on her work that she completely forgot there was a full-length mirror to her right.

Shen Suwei was looking at her with deep, unfathomable eyes.

The unfocused eyes are silent and focused at this moment.

Through the mirror, the light slowly moved across her waist, the side of her neck, and her shoulder blades, following her every movement without blinking.

Yun Qiao was completely unaware.

She zipped up her jacket and turned around:

"Alright, I'll push you out."

The unfocused bewilderment in Shen Suwei's eyes returned the instant she turned away. He clasped his hands together, his face gentle and harmless.

"Thank you, I'm sorry to trouble you."

Seeing him like this, Yun Qiao felt even more conflicted.

Without saying a word, she walked over, grasped the handle of the wheelchair, and pushed him toward the door.

The wheels of the wheelchair rolled over the carpet with a dull thud.

As she reached the door, just as she was about to say goodbye, he suddenly spoke lightly:

"My sister-in-law's voice is very beautiful."

Yun Qiao's hand suddenly paused.

"?"

"...Oh, sorry, was it inappropriate of me to say that?"

Yun Qiao frowned at him but didn't say anything.

Something feels off.

Is it because of his drastic personality change?

Come to think of it, his current gentle and polite personality, and his tendency to apologize at the drop of a hat, seems more like... Li Ruoyan than he used to be?
