Chapter 266 The Childhood Sweetheart's Guide to Admitting Defeat (Part 16)

Wen Yan indeed stopped moving, lowered her head and quickly shoveled the greens into her mouth, her tender white legs looking particularly obedient under her palm.

Zhou Yan was stunned for a moment.

She looked like she just smiled.

"Wen Yan?" Zhou Yan called out to her.

Only he would call her by her full name.

Wen Yan looked up, a grain of rice stuck to the corner of her mouth. Her eyes were big and bright, and she looked at people with pure beauty.

Now, Zhou Yan's face is clearly reflected in it.

Suddenly, he looked away, suppressing the indescribable ripples in his heart.

There's rice on the corner of your mouth.

"Oh." Wen Yan acted as if nothing had happened, and told Bai Wankai to wipe away the rice grains.

Zhou Yan silently lowered his hand, which was halfway raised, and quietly withdrew the hand that was pressing on Wen Yan's calf.

Wen Yan looked up at him. He lowered his head slightly and ate quietly. He had prominent brow bones, a high nose bridge, and long, slender hands holding chopsticks. She could even see the faint veins on the back of his hands.

Wen Yan's heart stirred slightly, and she put down her chopsticks. "I'm full."

After saying that, she ran upstairs and pounced on the bed.

The fluffy blanket smelled of sunshine; it was dry and warm.

She rolled over, clutching her dinosaur toy, and looked up at the ceiling, telling herself...

Soon, I'll be all grown up.

During the summer vacation after the end of her third year of junior high school, Wen Yan successfully passed the entrance exam for the top class of No. 3 Middle School.

Bai Wan and Wen Qingshan were very happy and prepared a large feast, which also benefited Zhou Yan.

When Wen Yan ran next door to call for help, Zhou Min was there too. She was wearing a polka-dot shirt, high-waisted jeans, and bright red lips.

Zhou Yan sat opposite her, with a document on the table.

When she saw Wen Yan, she was momentarily nervous and quickly put the documents into her bag. "Xiao Yan's here? Is something the matter?"

"Okay, I've come to call Zhou Yan to go eat." After a pause, she added, "Auntie, would you like to come along?"

"No, I have something to do. I'll go out first. Let Xiao Yan go."

After saying that, Zhou Min picked up her bag and hurriedly went out.

Wen Yan glanced at the sky; it was completely dark. She turned to Zhou Yan and asked, "How many days will she be gone this time?"

"Two months." Zhou Yan said indifferently, standing up slowly. His dead eyes were as cold as ice, only gradually warming up when he saw Wen Yan.

"Two months?" Wen Yan was surprised. Although Zhou Min often disappeared, this time, she had been gone for far too long.

But then she thought about it again and laughed: "That's good, then I can find you whenever I want!"

Zhou Yan paused in pushing the chair. "When you came to me before... were you in a difficult position?"

"No, it's just that sometimes when she's around, I feel a little uncomfortable, but..."

"I'll contact you later."

The young man's cool voice interrupted Wen Yan's hesitant words. She was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said in a clear voice, "Okay!"

After dinner, everyone was strolling around the courtyard to digest their food when Wen Qingshan excitedly pulled out a gift box. "Xiao Yan, this is a gift for your college entrance exam!"

Wen Yan took the gift box and opened it. Inside was a necklace, glittering with gold and adorned with several small flowers; it was very beautiful.

Her eyes lit up: "Thank you, Dad!"

"My gift is in your room, go open it later." Bai Wan suddenly leaned over, "My gift is really nice, unlike your dad's, which is so tacky."

After saying that, he turned his head and glared at Wen Qingshan.

"I'm going to get the gift." Wen Yan had just heard Bai Wan finish speaking when she rushed back into the house and immediately saw the wooden box on the dressing table.

When I held it in my hand, a faint sandalwood fragrance wafted out, fresh and elegant. Upon opening the box, I found a jade bracelet.

Its texture is warm and smooth, and its color is clear and bright, reminiscent of a green pool.

Wen Yan loved it so much that she took it outside to show everyone.

Bai Wan glanced at Wen Qingshan, raised her chin slightly, and said proudly, "I told you I have good taste."

"Yes, yes, you have the best taste." Wen Qingshan replied with a smile, but his hand reached into his pocket and pulled out a gold bracelet, grinning mischievously, "Then wife, can you tell me if this looks good?"

After saying that, he put the ring on Bai Wan's wrist. Bai Wan's face turned a little red, she coughed a few times, and forced herself to say, "...Not bad."

"Not bad at all, Mom clearly loves it!" Wen Yan laughed so hard she fell backward, the chair tilting back. Zhou Yan lowered his eyes and braced himself against the chair.

He reached into his pocket, but ultimately didn't take the little pink pocket out.

His gift was not good enough for her.
