Shen Junqing lowered the car window and waved to her.
Nan Yan saw him and walked over.
Before returning, she had messaged him, so he knew she was coming back today. Shen Junqing insisted on picking her up without hesitation.
Nan Yan had known him for so long, she was familiar with his character, so she didn’t refuse.
There was no need to contact anyone else, not An Xiran or Old Master An, to pick her up.
After Nan Yan got into the car, Shen Junqing asked with a slight tilt of his head, “Hungry, Yanyan? Shall we grab something to eat?”
“Yeah,” Nan Yan replied casually.
“What would you like to eat?”
“Anything.”
Her nonchalant response left Shen Junqing a bit puzzled.
After some thought, he chose a restaurant with what he considered a decent ambiance and drove there.
The Restaurant:
Shen Junqing held the menu and was about to ask Nan Yan what she wanted to order when a mocking voice reached their ears.
“Hey Third Trash… the old man lifted your restriction?”
“Getting his freedom back, and he’s already here trying to hit on girls. He’s really scraping the bottom of the barrel!”
Shen Wu’s intentionally loud voice drew the attention of most people in the restaurant.
“Who is he?” Nan Yan glanced at Shen Wu indifferently and asked.
“He’s my cousin,” Shen Junqing replied calmly without getting provoked by Shen Wu’s taunts.
He was used to hearing such insults, which only confirmed how deeply his image was ingrained in people’s minds, even among family members.
Seeing that Shen Junqing wasn’t responding to his provocations, Shen Wu’s face couldn’t hide his frustration, and he sneered, “I don’t know what kind of brainwashing you’ve done on the old man to make him tolerate your decadence and allow you to continue using the Shen family name to fool around.” “But now that I’ve witnessed this, I can’t let you go unchecked.”
“You, get the hell home now.”
Shen Wu was older than Shen Junqing, and he had always looked down on his younger brother. He found Shen Junqing disgraceful and believed he was a black mark on the Shen family.
Unfortunately, their grandfather had always been lenient towards Shen Junqing and favored him the most. This jealousy twisted Shen Wu’s attitude towards his brother into a desire to undermine and hurt him whenever possible.
Shen Junqing had no intention of engaging with Shen Wu, as it would ruin their outing.
However, Nan Yan’s expression grew cold.
“Third Brother, does he always bother you like this?”
“Yanyan, don’t underestimate your Third Brother,” Shen Junqing disagreed. “I just can’t be bothered.”
“Wasting my time on someone so worthless.”
Shen Wu:
Did he just hear Shen Junqing describe him as “worthless”?
He managed two publicly traded companies on behalf of their grandfather, and while the companies didn’t see substantial growth under his management, they at least maintained their profitability. A dandy like Shen Junqing dared to call him worthless?
“Shen Junqing, say that again?”
Shen Junqing raised an eyebrow, his peach blossom eyes carrying a hint of a flirtatious charm. “Yanyan, you see, he’s not only worthless but also a retard.”
Shen Wu’s face turned ashen, and in his anger, he swung his hand towards Shen Junqing’s face.
“Do you want to die?”
Shen Junqing’s eyes darkened, and he was about to retaliate when someone else acted faster.
Nan Yan lifted the fork she was holding and blocked his hand about to strike Shen Junqing.
Pfft—
A sharp piercing sound.
Shen Wu’s hand was pierced by the fork.
It went into the palm and came out through the back of his hand, leaving five sharp points sticking out.
Shen Wu screamed in agony, clutching his wounded hand.
Blood dripped steadily from the fork-punctured wound.
Shen Wu twisted his features in pain, glaring at Nan Yan. “You dare to hurt me!”
Nan Yan, holding the fork by its handle, casually withdrew it. “You ran into it yourself, not my problem.”
Shen Wu let out another cry of pain as blood continued to flow from the wound left by the fork.
The restaurant staff had already noticed the commotion.
Seeing someone injured, they quickly brought a first aid kit to help stop the bleeding.
Shen Junqing leisurely took the bloodied fork from Nan Yan’s hand and tossed it into the trash bin. “It’s dirty now. We’ll get them to bring a new one.”
“Sure.”
Unaffected by the incident, the two continued to discuss what dishes to order.
While the bleeding was temporarily under control, the pain remained.
Shen Wu clenched his teeth, watching the two people who completely disregarded him, growing increasingly frustrated.
He took out his phone, dialed the emergency number for police, and angrily said as he waited for the call to connect, “Don’t think Shen Junqing can protect you. He’s just a worthless piece of trash. I want you behind bars, and you’ll rot there.”
“Third Brother, he says he’s calling the police to arrest me.”
Nan Yan’s face remained unconcerned as she rested her chin on her hand, her eyes reflecting a hint of laziness.
Shen Junqing casually reached over and ruffled her hair. “Don’t worry, with Third Brother here, no one can harm you.”
Nan Yan wordlessly pulled his hand away.
—Why did he have to ruffle her hair? Just speak nicely.
Shen Wu, with a dark expression, continued to watch them. He ignored the restaurant staff urging him to go to the hospital.
He simply couldn’t believe that a woman with just a hint of beauty thought she could act recklessly because she was attached to Shen Junqing, the Second Young Master of the Shen family.
Ignorant women were truly the most foolish.
Before long, the police arrived.
Because of Shen Wu’s actions, Nan Yan and Shen Junqing hadn’t had a chance to place their orders and had been sipping on tea to pass the time.
Seeing the police, Shen Wu, with a cold face, spoke up, “Officer, in front of all these witnesses, she attacked me. I want to report her and have her arrested.”
“All these people can testify that what I’m saying is true.”
Shen Wu glared at Shen Junqing with a sinister expression. If Shen Junqing dared to help this woman, he would find a way to get their grandfather to disown him!
The police officer asked Nan Yan with a professional tone, “Miss, is this what happened?”
“Of course not,” Nan Yan refuted, “Clearly, I had my fork on the table, and he chose to run into it himself. It’s not my fault.”
Shen Junqing lazily raised his hand, saying, “I can confirm she’s telling the truth.”
“We were just having dinner here with my sister, and he suddenly came over and tried to assault me for no reason. At that moment, my sister was holding the fork and happened to be gesturing with it. He bumped into it, and he has no one to blame but himself.’
“Officer, I believe I’m the victim here. I request compensation for my emotional distress,” Shen Junqing added.
Shen Wu’s face turned purple with anger. “You’re spouting nonsense!”
He lowered his voice, seething as he said, “Shen Junqing, are you really willing to offend me for the sake of a woman?”
Shen Junqing sneered, “Who do you think you are? You’re not even worthy to compare with my sister.”
Shen Junqing held his head high and looked at the police officer. “There’s surveillance footage. You can check it to see what really happened..”
