Of course Shen Yin understood her meaning. When she looked up, the lonely look on her face had completely disappeared. She smiled at Cheng Luo and said, “Lian Jing will definitely provide me with a committment. It’s just that it’s not the right time yet. I trust him.”
Cheng Luo was stunned. She thought that she could take the opportunity to fight for her brother, but she had not expected Shen Yin and Lian Jing’s relationship to be so firm already.
It really would not be easy to disrupt their relationship…
After being in the business circle for so many years, Cheng Luo still did not believe that someone like Lian Jing would really commit so easily. No matter how much Shen Yin trusted him and how loyal she was to him, it remained to be seen if Lian Jing would fulfil her expectations.
Cheng Luo rolled her eyes and came up with an idea.
She sat beside Shen Yin and looked at her younger brother who was walking towards them. She could not resist saying, “Actually, he’s never been very serious about relationships in the past. You’re the one exception. Even if we don’t become a family in the future, I still wish you the best. So I want to remind you that Lian Jing is the President of the Lian Corporation. There are numerous women vying for his attention. You have to keep a close eye on him.”
Shen Yin thought of the first time Lian Jing had kissed her. He had not been very proficient in kissing, so she ignored Cheng Luo’s words. She was still willing to trust Lian Jing, but she still smiled at Cheng Luo’s good intentions. “Thank you, I understand.”
Cheng Luo did not say anything else. After taking two cups of milk tea from his brother, she personally handed one to Shen Yin and smiled gently. “Do you want us to send you back? It’s quite a distance from here to the Lian residence.”
Shen Yin did not dare to let Cheng Huo near the Lian residence again. After seeing the price tag on the milk tea cup, she took out a note and stuffed it into Cheng Huo’s hand.
When their fingers touched, she could clearly feel his hand trembling slightly.
After paying the bill, she looked at Cheng Luo with a relaxed expression and shook her head apologetically to reject her kindness. “No need. I can take a taxi back myself. Thank you for your milk tea. Goodbye.”
Cheng Luo watch Shen Yin leave the mall. Her heart ached as she clutched her brother’s arm. Her fingers rested lightly on his chest as she comforted him in a low voice. “Let it go. She already belongs to someone else.”
Cheng Huo smiled self-deprecatingly and looked at Cheng Luo pitifully. “Sister, do I really stand no chance at all?”
Cheng Luo thought about it carefully. In order for his younger brother to completely give up and pull himself together again, she chose to say what she was thinking even if it would hurt Shen Yin. “Actually, there’s another way. You have to make Lian Jing fall in love with someone else.”
Cheng Huo frowned slightly and instantly understood what his sister meant. His listless eyes lit up. “Will he?”
Cheng Luo knew that this was very immoral of her, but if Lian Jing and Shen Yin could navigate this difficulty, it meant that the two of them were really prepared to love each other for the rest of their lives. Then her younger brother should accept his fate and choose to forget Shen Yin.
“We can give it a try. I can tell that Shen Yin is a very good woman. It’s impossible to sway her, but that might not be the case with Lian Jing.” This was the only method Cheng Luo could only think of that might help her younger brother.
When Cheng Huo heard this, he pondered for a long time. In the end, he nodded solemnly and said, “Alright, I’ll make the arrangements. If Lian Jing is really loyal to Shen Yin, I’ll withdraw voluntarily. If he can’t do it, don’t blame me for snatching Yin Yin away!”
In the evening, at the Lian residence.
Shen Yin was watching her son do his homework on the sofa. Shen Nian was really intelligent. No matter how eager she was to tutor her son, it was useless.
The little child sat on the chair and straightened his back to do questions that far exceeded what he should have learned at his age. After a while, he put down the pen in his hand and stretched. He smiled at his stunned mother. “Mom, I’m done with my homework. Let’s go play.”
“What are we playing?” Shen Yin asked curiously.
What did a genius like his son usually play with?
Shen Yin was surprised to find that she did not have an answer to this question.
She was usually busy with work and did not pay much attention to her son.
Feeling guilty, Shen Yin perked up and decided to take this opportunity to relax with her son.
Until the boy asked the nanny to bring the chessboard from the study. Then, he looked at Shen Yin with a comforting expression and said, “I know Mommy doesn’t know how to play chess, so I’ll teach you today!”
“I don’t want to learn.” Shen Yin’s daydream of watching cartoons and playing with cars with her son were shattered. She decided to go back on her word. She did not want to learn how to play chess. Her grandfather had taught her before, but every time she played chess, she ended up with a headache.
However, Shen Nian excitedly stuffed a chess piece into her hand. He put on a straight face and said in all seriousness, “Mom, when you learn to play chess, you can also learn a lot of tricks. Dad is a chess expert! If you don’t learn more, you won’t be able to fight back when he bullies you in the future.”
Shen Yin was unmoved. She lay lazily on the sofa and looked at him. “Will you let Mommy be bullied?”
