Cry louder, I can't hear you.
Chapter 70: Can't I say it's because she's my brother's wife?
When the chopsticks touched his soft lower lip, Yun Qiao finally realized what she had done.
Shen Suwei's body suddenly froze, as if in surprise, his eyelashes trembling.
"I'm sorry, I...I..." Yun Qiao was so embarrassed that she was almost incoherent. Just as she was about to remove her chopsticks, the fish piece was suddenly bitten.
Perhaps because she couldn't see it, her chopsticks were also bitten.
Yun Qiao hesitated, as if to say that these were her own personal chopsticks.
It was already presumptuous of her to pick up food for him and bring it to his mouth without his permission.
If he finds out these are his personal chopsticks.
Even the most good-tempered person would get angry...
"Thank you." He swallowed the fish before politely expressing his gratitude.
Yun Qiao glanced nervously around the restaurant. Although the restaurant had glass walls on all sides to enjoy the island's night view, there was no one around at the moment.
If no one sees it, and Shen Suwei doesn't know, then only heaven, earth, and she know...
Yun Qiao quickly convinced herself.
However, the next second, she encountered a new problem.
Shen Suwei had just bitten her chopsticks, so how was she supposed to eat?
She glanced around the table and, to her dismay, there weren't any extra chopsticks.
She couldn't ask the staff for another pair, because Shen Suwei would definitely ask her why she wanted extra chopsticks...
After hesitating for a while, she finally convinced herself again.
We've kissed before, so what's wrong with using chopsticks he's bitten?
So dramatic!
Yun Qiao was so caught up in her guilt and nervousness that she forgot that she could have simply said that the chopsticks had fallen on the ground and asked the staff to bring her a new set.
She picked up a dish and put it in her bowl, then ate it somewhat awkwardly.
She didn't notice at all the slight upturn of the man's lips beside her.
A somewhat grueling dinner is finally over.
Shen Shiyu never returned.
Even Shen Suwei's men did not return.
Yun Qiao stood at the restaurant entrance, looking at the slightly complicated road conditions outside, and then at the quiet man sitting in the wheelchair.
"How...will you get back?"
"It's okay, he's quick with things, he'll be back in half an hour."
Half an hour?!
Is he serious or just being sarcastic?
Yun Qiao secretly observed him and was amazed to see that his expression remained peaceful and humble throughout.
He's really kind and gentle to those around him now.
What happened in these three years that turned this man, who used to always have a sullen face, into this?
"How about," Yun Qiao hesitated again, "I'll take you home."
"Wouldn't that be too much trouble for you?"
"Won't."
He smiled and said, "Your sister-in-law is such a kind person."
"...I told you not to use that term of address."
"Yes, Yunqiao."
His tone was very slow.
Because the voice was so low, at first glance, Yun Qiao thought it was the old Shen Suwei calling her.
Almost instinctively, her body tensed up.
She looked up and met his gentle, unfocused eyes, and said, "Thank you for your help."
She relaxed slightly.
Shen Suwei has amnesia, Shen Suwei has amnesia, Shen Suwei has amnesia...
She reminded herself for the nth time.
Don't be so nervous.
No matter how capable he is, he cannot escape the system's influence.
Yunqiao helped push his wheelchair all the way to his residence, only to find that the two buildings were actually very close to each other.
Shen Suwei's building number one is right in front of building number two.
"Does Shen Qing live here too?"
"You want to go find him?"
Yun Qiao was slightly taken aback, not quite understanding Shen Suwei's focus, but still answered:
"I just want to know if all the men live here, and the women live in Building 2."
"no."
He slightly curved his lips and patiently replied, "I'm the only one living in Building Number One."
Why?
"I don't know. Maybe she just doesn't want to live with a cripple like me."
"..." He said that again.
Yun Qiao escorted him to the villa entrance and was just about to leave.
Shen Suwei called out to her:
"Could you give me some more directions? I'm not sure how to get to the room."
Yun Qiao turned to look at him and saw that he looked blank and innocent. She really wanted to ask him if he needed someone to help him take a shower or go to the toilet when he was alone in his room.
But she was also worried that if they really needed someone, wouldn't asking like that be touching a raw nerve?
After enduring it again and again, Yun Qiao compromised once more:
"I'll push you over there."
"Thank you, I'm sorry to trouble you."
"It's no trouble at all."
Yun Qiao pushed him through the villa's foyer and, following the house numbers he gave her, searched for each room one by one.
The lights in the corridor were all on. The villa was large, and because no one was around, the sound of the wheels rolling on the ground was particularly abrupt and clear with every step.
The air was so quiet that you could hear each other breathing.
The corridor was deep, and the further Yunqiao walked, the more breathless she felt.
She felt a giant net slowly tightening around her from behind...
"Do you know how your engagement to Shen Qing came about?"
Shen Suwei suddenly spoke.
Yun Qiao was taken aback, puzzled as to why he asked that question, and could only follow his lead and ask in return:
Why?
"Because of going back to the past."
"Going back to the past?"
Suyuan is the name of Shen Suwei's group. Three years ago, he defied public opinion and not only changed the group's name but also its development direction, changing it from the heavy industry sector to biotechnology.
I don't know if it was because he became lame that he started to pay more attention to his health, or it was because of the temperature.
I heard that he has been getting very close to the big boss of Haicheng Shiwen Group in recent years. Maybe he was influenced by him and thought that the technology field was lucrative.
Regardless of the reason, Shen Suwei made a very disruptive decision.
At first, no one was optimistic, but unexpectedly, in just three years, Suyuan has developed better than before.
Previously, the Shen family and the Chi family in Nancheng could still be entangled, but now, the Chi family has been completely outshone.
The male protagonist's halo has been significantly diminished.
Yun Qiao suddenly realized that the system might have detected the plot collapse because the male lead's halo was stolen.
Yun Qiao was pondering the likelihood of this answer when Shen Suwei continued:
"Your parents want to get in touch with Su Yuan. Knowing that you know Shen Qing, they are thinking of using your engagement to Shen Qing to cooperate with Su Yuan."
"..." Although she already knew, did she have to be so blunt? What was she trying to do?
"I don't like being schemed against."
It turned out to be the case.
However, Yun Qiao still couldn't figure out what he was trying to say, so she didn't say anything.
"Yunqiao".
He suddenly called her name.
A strange feeling flickered in Yun Qiao's heart, but she suppressed it and replied, "Hmm?"
"Since your parents just want to get involved with Su Yuan..."
He turned his head slightly. "Why don't you just marry me?"
"What?"
Yun Qiao wondered if she had misheard. She suddenly loosened her grip on the wheelchair and stood there staring at him with wide eyes.
Shen Suwei pressed down on the armrests and turned the wheelchair around so that it was facing her.
"Wouldn't it be better to marry me than Shen Qing?"
"...Mr. Shen, are you sick?"
"Obviously, I am sick."
"...What I mean is, what you said is inappropriate."
He tilted his head slightly, seemingly puzzled. "Why isn't it suitable?"
Yun Qiao was almost amused by his self-righteousness, and gritted her teeth as she reminded him:
"I'm your cousin's fiancée, your sister-in-law. Is it appropriate for you to say such things to your sister-in-law?"
"Can't I say it if she's my brother's wife?"
"?"
