Shen Sixian successfully angered Shen Shuangjian.

In the two days leading up to their return to the Capital, Shen Shuangjian that he consistently avoided addressing her dissatisfaction.

He would sit far away from Shen Sixian downstairs, and he would ignore Shen Sixian's requests during meals, silently resisting.

This kind of confrontation isn't troublesome, but it's quite endearing.

She's just cute.

Perhaps Shen Shuangjian's preconditions for being distant this time were too frivolous, because Shen Sixian not only didn't take it seriously, but even took it for granted that Shen Shuangjian just throwing a tantrum at him again.

Just like family members in a normal household who would play and joke around, when they quarrel, they become like a saw-through gourd, ignoring each other.

Shen Sixian didn't take it too seriously at first. He always thought that Shen Shuangjian would get over her anger after a while and forget about it.

After all, in his shallow understanding of "ordinary," he didn't believe that people would waste their mood and time getting angry over some trivial matters.

But in reality, he was defeated in less than a day.

It turns out Shen Shuangjian really could.

He can really remember something for a long time, even if it's just a casual remark or a small thing that he notices.

So Shen Sixian suddenly learned a little more about Shen Shuangjian, though not much, but he was still exploring.

Just like a lion patrolling its territory and ruling over life and death, it doesn't understand what a butterfly that has strayed into its forbidden zone is thinking.

He had no choice but to soften his stance and bow his head to Shen Shuangjian first. The standard meal was reduced from two bowls to one and a half bowls, then from one and a half bowls to one bowl, and finally even the midnight snack was canceled.

Perhaps sensing the friendly signal from the lion, the butterfly whose wings had been torn by the powerful hurricane began to repair its beautiful wings.

Then Shen Shuangjian's attitude became less cold and distant.

On the day they returned to the Capital, Xie Jinghui hitched a ride on the Shen Family's private airline and flew back with the two of them. Unfortunately, Xie Jinghui lost the seat next to Shen Shuangjian.

Shen Sixian had never seen Shen Shuangjian Kongfei before, nor did he, like Xie Jinghui, carefully explore her because she was completely unfamiliar with her.

When Shen Shuangjian his pale face and grabbed his hand, Shen Sixian almost stopped the plane and ordered an emergency landing before flying back.

Fortunately, Shen Shuangjian only experienced some discomfort from the air pressure and dizziness, but nothing else seriously wrong with her body.

Xie Jinghui sat on the right side by the window. After confirming that Shen Shuangjian was safe, he silently began to watch the two of them.

Shen Sixian is indeed a complete waste, Xie Jinghui thought with a hint of sarcasm.

He seemed to have no idea how to follow Shen Shuangjian's lead, instead acting entirely on his own whims.

For example, when Shen Shuangjian insecure, he likes to clutch something he can grab and curl up in a corner.

But Shen Sixian insisted on pulling him out of the corner and making Shen Shuangjian lean against the large central shelf.

Shen Shuangjian also feels sleepy when he is not feeling well, and he sleeps very lightly. He is easily awakened if anyone makes a sound or touches him gently.

But Shen Sixian never cared about these things. He wanted Shen Shuangjian wake him up when he wanted to eat, without worrying about whether Shen Shuangjian would be angry.

When he wanted to touch Shen Shuangjian, he would reach out naturally. If Shen Shuangjian frowned, he would press his hand against hers without hesitation to smooth it out.

So Xie Jinghui, who was used to anticipating Shen Shuangjian's reaction before doing anything, suddenly felt a little smug.

Just like in understanding Shen Shuangjian, he was more outstanding than Shen Sixian, and more outstanding than everyone around him.

But when his eyes started to sting from looking for so long, Xie Jinghui suddenly lowered his gaze and looked away.

He seemed to suddenly realize something.

It turns out that Shen Sixian wasn't thinking too little, but rather he was thinking too much.

Shen Sixian could do things that he couldn't, and similarly, Shen Sixian dared to do things that he didn't.

When the plane landed, Shen Shuangjian the good condition she had worked so hard to recover from over many days had vanished in the blink of an eye. She even had to rest for another night after arriving home before she started to recover.

During their absence, it seemed that some parts of the Shen Residence had been renovated. Shen Shuangjian didn't know exactly what, but he did know that the once cold and lifeless Shen Residence seemed much warmer.

In a physical sense, it's because Shen Shuangjian no longer wakes up at night because her hands and feet are cold.

When her phone suddenly popped up a notification that a new message Shen Shuangjian come in, Shen Shuangjian was listening to the bizarre novel that Yu Sheng had recommended to her.

Although it was absurd, it was a novel experience for Shen Shuangjian.

Tap the message bar and the interface will automatically redirect.

Elder brother: [Goes downstairs.]

Brother: [Reply to this message if you see it. Don't pretend you didn't.]

So Shen Shuangjian downstairs, wearing loose, thin fleece pajamas. Before she even reached the bottom of the stairs, she saw a row of strangers in neat work uniforms standing in the lobby.

"Come here, let the designer take your measurements." Shen Sixian was still holding his work tablet in his hand. His well-tailored silver-gray suit made him look even more refined and aloof.

Shen Shuangjian somewhat puzzled. Shen Sixian chuckled and explained, "There's a banquet tonight; I'll take you with me."

Shen Sixian adjusted the silver-rimmed glasses in the middle of his nose.

"However, there probably isn't enough time to design clothes for you on the spot. Let's pick a few outfits that fit your body shape first, and once we've taken your measurements and made them, we'll send them over for you to wear next time."

In the past, Shen Sixian might have thought he was crazy to bring Shen Shuangjian to such a high-society event as a charity gala.

But right now, Shen Sixian wasn't thinking too much about it, and it had nothing to do with whether or not he admitted it.

He was just thinking that Shen Shuangjian quiet and didn't like to talk when she stayed at home, so he should take her out to have some fun.

A charity gala with a large number of people but not a lively one would be a good option.

Because everyone who comes here is well-mannered and becomes gentle and kind for the sake of their reputation, no foolish man would try to seduce Shen Shuangjian.

"Young master, could you please raise your arm?"

As a century-old wealthy family, the Shen Family family has always had a private clothing designer for Shen Sixian. In addition to regular tailoring, he also receives the latest styles from major brands every quarter.

"Brother, why should I go too?"

Shen Shuangjian has been increasingly confused about Shen Sixian's attitude lately. Although he is much calmer now than before, when Shen Sixian was unpredictable and easily angered, he often does things that Shen Shuangjian cannot understand.

For example, many times Shen Shuangjian him "brother, "Shen Sixian will ignore her. But if he waits a while and finds that Shen Shuangjian is not speaking, he will inexplicably ask Shen Shuangjian call him "brother."

It was very strange, just like the novel Shen Shuangjian had heard but couldn't understand.
