Wen Jin didn’t like Yu Anwan, so his retaliation was to leave her with the cruel people in the Wen family, where she could be devoured in an instant.
That sharpness made Yu Anwan’s scalp tingle.
Yu Anwan didn’t dare to imagine how a six-year-old child-like Zhanyan could bear the harsh words of those people.
“Only Zhanyan and grandfather know what happened that day. If grandfather doesn’t recover, Zhanyan will carry this burden for the rest of his life,” Wen Jin said calmly.
Yu Anwan fell silent.
“Don’t you claim to love Zhanyan? If that’s true, why aren’t you willing to clear his name?” Wen Jin asked Yu Anwan.
His tone turned serious again. “Professor Grace wouldn’t operate on your grandmother for no reason, so why won’t you tell me how you contacted him?”
Wen Jin’s eyes were fixed on Yu Anwan.
The previously calm conversation now became tense again.
Yu Anwan stood there motionless, caught in a dilemma.
On one hand, she didn’t want Wen Zhanyan to be misunderstood and accused of being a murderer. On the other hand, she wanted to distance herself from the Wen family.
Moreover, exposing Grace’s identity wouldn’t benefit Yu Anwan. It would only bring disadvantages. After all, human hearts were unpredictable.
As Yu Anwan hesitated, Wen Jin suddenly smiled with a hint of self-mockery.
“What are you laughing at?” Yu Anwan frowned at Wen Jin.
“Forget it. If even the Wen family can’t find him, how can you?” Wen Jin decided to end the conversation by himself. “Alright, let’s put an end to this matter.”
Yu Anwan grew even quieter as she listened to Wen Jin’s words.
Seeing Yu Anwan’s rare display of obedience, Wen Jin’s heart softened, and his well-defined hand naturally held hers.
Yu Anwan’s hand was completely enveloped in Wen Jin’s palm, and she felt her palms getting sweaty from the warmth.
The ambiguous atmosphere made Yu Anwan want to struggle and escape, but Wen Jin held her hand tightly, not giving her any chance to break free.
It was not that Yu Anwan couldn’t break free.
However, she couldn’t quite explain why. Perhaps she didn’t want to disturb the rare moment of tranquility. Now, Yu Anwan found herself being led passively by Wen Jin.
Wen Jin held Yu Anwan’s hand as they walked on the soft sand toward the beach. The waves hit them, and soon Yu Anwan’s skirt got wet, but she didn’t mind as she was wearing flip-flops.
Only then did Wen Jin let go of Yu Anwan’s hand.
Just as Yu Anwan was about to inquire, she noticed Wen Jin looking down, seemingly searching for something. Yu Anwan stared at Wen Jin passively.
Soon, Wen Jin stood up with a flat stone in his hand.
“What are you planning to do?” Yu Anwan frowned.
Wen Jin smiled. “Watch.”
As he finished speaking, Wen Jin threw the flat stone across the calm sea surface. The stone skipped on the water, one bounce after another.
Yu Anwan instinctively counted. It bounced at least a dozen times before gradually sinking into the depths of the sea.
“When you’re in a bad mood, throwing stones can be a stress release. Don’t believe me? Why don’t you give it a try?” Wen Jin suddenly looked at Yu Anwan. Yu Anwan raised her eyebrows and gazed at Wen Jin.
Like magic, Wen Jin’s hand produced another flat, wet stone, which he handed to Yu Anwan.
Yu Anwan didn’t find it extraordinary. She took it naturally and mimicked Wen Jin, throwing it toward the sea’s surface.
However, no matter how hard Yu Anwan threw the stone, it would immediately sink without any chance for a second bounce.
Yu Anwan grew more frustrated. When her temper flared, she ignored everything around her.
She threw a lot, but those that did not succeed and those that barely succeeded only bounced twice before sinking.
Wen Jin watched with interest. Seeing Yu Anwan’s angry expression, he suddenly found her quite adorable.
“Wen Jin, you’re lying. You’re just lucky.” Yu Anwan shouted at Wen Jin. After numerous failed attempts, she couldn’t feel any more defeated.
Wen Jin smiled silently.
Then, Wen Jin found a suitable stone on the ground and walked toward Yu Anwan.
He embraced Yu Anwan from behind, completely imprisoning her within his sphere of influence.
The familiar masculine scent overwhelmed Yu Anwan, making her feel a little uneasy.
Wen Jin lifted Yu Anwan’s hand, and the stone landed in her palm. He calmly instructed, “Hold it like this, aim at sea level, take your time, and throw it in a flat direction.
As he spoke, the stone flew out of Yu Anwan’s hand, following Wen Jin’s guidance step by step.
Yu Anwan’s heart raced as she watched the stone fly out. Then, she saw it skip across the water, completely different from her previous attempts where the stones sank.
This time, excitement surged through Yu Anwan, and she turned to Wen Jin, exclaiming, “Wen Jin, I did it! I did it!”
A triumphant glow appeared on her delicate face, her eyes sparkling mischievously like a cunning fox, which captivated Wen Jin’s gaze.
“Not bad,” he replied.
Yu Anwan seemed to have become addicted to it. She was indeed a quick learner under Wen Jin’s guidance. The following stones were ten out of nine times successful in their skips.
Until they couldn’t find any more suitable stones on the beach, Yu Anwan still felt a bit unsatisfied, as if she hadn’t had enough.
“It’s such a stress reliever, isn’t it?” Wen Jin smiled as he looked at Yu Anwan. “Super awesome.” Yu Anwan nodded.
She felt that Wen Jin, this b*stard, had performed a rare act of goodwill.
Wen Jin smiled quietly and kept his deep gaze on Yu Anwan. She raised her eyebrows and then said with a serious expression, “I thought you’d prefer extreme sports to relieve stress, like skiing on the Devil’s Slope, experiencing the thrill of brushing death.”
That was indeed Yu Anwan’s perception of Wen Jin.
“Sorry, I cherish my life too much.”
Thus, Yu Anwan’s proposal was something Wen Jin would never consider.
“That’s true.” Yu Anwan added, “Considering the Wen family’s immense wealth if you died, it would be utter chaos.”
Wen Jin remained silent.
But Wen Jin’s eyes remained fixed on Yu Anwan.
Yu Anwan stood there, his suit jacket still draped over her shoulders, her hair gently lifted by the sea breeze. Wen Jin couldn’t explain why, but the feeling of being moved became more and more apparent.
In the end, unable Wen Jin couldn’t help but walk toward Yu Anwan..
