“There’s no need. I’ll just go home and eat.” When she came out just now, Shen Yin had slipped away to the hospital to see Shen Nian. By now, Lian Jing would already know that she had run away. He might be waiting at home for her to have dinner.

If he found out that she had not only disobeyed him, but had even had dinner with Cheng Huo, he would definitely fly into a rage. Then she would be the one to suffer.

Shen Yin’s face grew hot at the thought of Lian Jing’s bullying methods.

Cheng Huo looked up at Shen Yin and smiled awkwardly. “Surely you can stay for a meal, right? Lian Jing can’t be so petty that he won’t even allow you to keep Nian Nian company for a meal, right?”

When Shen Nian heard himself being used as a shield, he stood between the two of them warily. “Mom, I can take care of myself. Dad is waiting for you at home. You had better go home quickly.”

“Nian Nian…” Cheng Mu called out weaklyu Seeing that he was unmoved, she decisively chose to betray her brother. She guiltily looked at her disappointed brother. “Brother, don’t make things difficult for Aunt Shen. Perhaps Uncle Lian is really anxiously waiting at home?”

Cheng Huo looked at Shen Yin with red eyes. He could not say a word.

Shen Yin patted Cheng Mu’s head in relief and kissed Shen Nian’s forehead before saying slowly, “Alright, I’m relieved to see that the two of you are doing well in the hospital. I’ll go now. Remember what I said just now.”

Shen Nian nodded vigorously and reluctantly walked her to the door of the ward. He watched her figure disappear at the end of the corridor before returning to the ward. He forced back his tears and glared at Cheng Mu. “Eat. The sooner you recuperate, the sooner I can go home.”

Cheng Mu, who had just picked up the bento box, paused for a moment. The joy she felt just now because she was about to be discharged disappeared, and the upper half of her face was hidden in the shadows. “After I’m discharged, you’ll have repaid me and you won’t play with me like this anymore, right?”

Shen Nian frowned and looked at her in confusion. “Naturally. You can’t expect me to take care of you for the rest of your life, right?”

Cheng Mu’s grip on the bento box tightened slightly, and she suddenly felt a lump in his throat. She could not even smell the fragrance of the food anymore. “Then, then can I ask you to play with me? We’re friends, right?”

Shen Nian was obviously stunned for a moment. After a while, he looked at Cheng Huo, who was sitting silently at the side, and suddenly nodded thoughtfully. “Yes, we’re friends, so you have to address my Mom as ‘Aunt Shen’ in the future. You can’t address her as ‘sister’, understand?”

“I know.” Cheng Mu smiled sweetly and secretly glanced at her brother’s gloomy expression. She awkwardly stopped smiling and quickly shut up to eat.

When Shen Yin returned to the Lian residence, there was no one in the living room. She curiously looked for Butler Chen, who was busy in the kitchen. “Where’s Lian Jing?”

Chen Fa quickly lowered his head and said expressionlessly, “President Lian is resting in his room.”

“He didn’t eat?” Shen Yin felt that something was amiss. Could he and Old Master Lian have quarreled?

“He didn’t eat.” Chen Fa continued to look down and replied, “President Lian said that he’s in a bad mood and didn’t want dinner today.”

He was really angry…

Shen Yin sighed and resigned herself to fate. After coaxing the child, she was now home to coax the older child.

There room was dark, and the curtains were tightly drawn. No light leaked in.

When Shen Yin first entered, she thought there was no one in the room. If Lian Jing had not turned over in bed, she would have closed the door and left.

“Why didn’t you eat?” She walked quietly to the bed and was about to reach out to turn on the lamp on the bedside table when someone suddenly gripped her arm tightly. A strong force pulled her straight into a firm embrace. “Hiss… you’re not asleep?”

She rubbed her aching elbow and grumbled as she rolled out of his arms. She frowned and stared at him unhappily.

Lian Jing was also in pain because she had hit his bone. However, he always liked to maintain a cold expression so that others could not easily discern his thoughts. “I’m not asleep. Do you want me to stay alone in the room?”

“Why would I?” Shen Yin lowered her elbow and pounced on him to wrap her arms around his neck. “I’m hungry. Can you come downstairs and keep me company for dinner?”

Lian Jing snorted coldly, but his large hand held her slender waist. “Where did you go?”

“To the hospital,” Shen Yin answered honestly.

Anyway, even if she made up something, Lian Jing would find out where she had gone in the end. It was better for her to tell him the truth from the start. This was a serious matter, so it was best to avoid such misunderstandings as much as possible.

“Mm,” Lian Jing replied softly. Just as Shen Yin thought that he would let her off just like that, she heard him suddenly sneer above her head. “Who did you see at the hospital?”

He even knew about that? His information network was too fast!

Shocked, Shen Yin crawled over so her eyes were level with his and looked at him seriously. “You got someone to follow me again.”

“Don’t change the subject.” Lian Jing narrowed his eyes dangerously.. “Tell me, who did you meet?”
