675 A Block of Wood
Yan Shen was about to relax when he heard the familiar voice, but the tone gave him goosebumps. He smiled at the person in front of him and said, “Then I’ll take my leave first.”
The man gave Yan Shen a look implying that he understood as they were both men. Yan Shen pulled Chu Ning and turned around to leave.
After taking a few steps forward and making sure that the person could not hear them, Yan Shen let out a long sigh. He turned his head and looked at Chu Ning weakly. “How did you come up with this? You scared me.”
Yan Shen’s heart was still pounding. He exhaled and said, “That person is a chatterbox. Now, everyone on the cruise will know that the heir of the Yan family has a female companion.”
Chu Ning waved her hand nonchalantly and smiled sweetly while holding her cup. “Even I don’t care; Young Master Yan, don’t be shy.”
Chu Ning’s sharp eyes saw that the tips of Yan Shen’s ears were red. She leaned over and said, “Young Master Yan, are you shy?”
Yan Shen coughed twice. He had wanted to tell her to stop making a scene in a serious manner, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he stuttered, “You, you, you…”
Chu Ning laughed so hard that tears flowed out of her eyes. “So Young Master Yan is still an innocent boy, haha.”
Yan Shen was so angry at his own stammering that his ears turned even redder. When he heard her laugh, his face flushed red as well.
Seeing that Chu Ning had no intention of stopping with her laughter, Yan Shen was furious and embarrassed. He simply shook Chu Ning’s hand off and strode forward. He felt that he was finished. His image was completely ruined.
Chu Ning picked up her skirt and quickly chased after him. “Young Master Yan? Yan Shen? Are you angry?”
Yan Shen ignored her, his expression dark, but his footsteps slowed down. He heard Chu Ning smile and apologize, saying that she would never tease him again. Yan Shen turned his head slightly and looked at Chu Ning’s smiling face. He suddenly wanted to take a camera and save this moment forever.
Chu Ning looked into Yan Shen’s eyes, and saw his gaze became deeper and deeper. She reached out and waved her hand in front of his eyes. “Yan Shen? What are you thinking about?”
Yan Shen abruptly came back to his senses. He coughed dryly and shook his head. “Nothing.”
Chu Ning looked at him suspiciously. Then, something seemed to have dawned upon her. Her expression of sudden realization made Yan Shen anxiously swallow.
Chu Ning noticed that he was gulping nervously and immediately had a conclusive confirmation. “You really want to find an opportunity to take revenge on me!”
Yan Shen staggered, and the speechlessness on his face almost drowned Chu Ning. Chu Ning steadily supported him, and her smug expression seemed to be saying, “I found out.”
Yan Shen could not help but reach out and push Chu Ning’s face to the other side. He sighed. When he thought about how this beautiful face grew on a block of wood, he felt that it was really a waste.
Yan Shen was worried that Chu Ning would say something crazy later, so he quickly changed the topic. “Didn’t you see your big brother? He’s here too? Where?”
Chu Ning smiled uncomfortably. “Ah, that’s just an excuse. My big brother should still be starting a business. I didn’t see him on the invitation list. He probably isn’t here.”
Yan Shen held his forehead and was about to speak when he heard someone say, “Xiao Ning?”
Chu Ning turned around in surprise and said, “Big Brother!”
Chu Zhe was very happy to see Chu Ning. Who would have thought that he would run into his sister here? “Xiao Ning, did you receive an invitation too?”
When Chu Ning heard this, she quickly gestured behind her back to Yan Shen to stop him from talking. Then, she smiled and said to Chu Zhe, “What about you? Did you receive an invitation?”
Chu Ning recalled the list of invitations in her head. She didn’t see Big Brother’s name. Could it be that he came in as a family member like her?
Chu Zhe smiled and patted Chu Ning’s head. Then, he said to Yan Shen, “Hello, Young Master Yan. Thank you for taking care of Xiao Ning.”
Yan Shen gave a polite smile. “You’re welcome. I’m very good friends with Chu Ning. She has helped me a lot too. It’s not like I took care of her.”
Chu Zhe subtly scrutinized Yan Shen, but Yan Shen was aware of it and allowed him to do so.
The two of them did not say a word and just stood there. Chu Ning saw this and felt a little helpless. She patted Big Brother’s arm and said,”Big Brother! You still haven’t told me how you got here? Did you receive an invitation too? I didn’t see you on the guest list!”
