Chapter 151 - 151 138 Shen Jingchuans Anger

?Chapter 151: Chapter 138 Shen Jingchuan’s Anger Chapter 151: Chapter 138 Shen Jingchuan’s Anger He said this and began to hop forward slowly on one leg, supporting himself against the wall.

Wenyan, who was by his side, quickly stepped forward to support his arm.

Although she also knew that what Shen Jingxiu needed most now was rest, she could understand his feelings at this moment.

In the same car, while two others were a patient in the ICU and another in the operating room, only he had minor injuries, and he was their boss as well, so he definitely needed to make his stance known in front of the family members of the injured.

“Let me help you, big brother, don’t force yourself, just leave your weight to me,” she said.

Shen Jingxiu looked down at her slender shoulders, still unable to harden his heart.

She looked too thin, as if she might collapse under pressure.

So, he said, “Then I’ll wait for my crutches, the ones I had earlier weren’t quite right, they’ve taken them to change.”

Wenyan replied with an “Oh,” “Where did they go to exchange them? Do you need me to hurry them? Nowadays, medical crutches should all be adjustable in height, right?”

“That’s a good idea, you can help me go upstairs to the office to ask.”

“Alright, then you wait for me, I’ll be back very quickly!”

After saying this, Wenyan left the ward without stopping.

However, when she reached the elevator entrance, she suddenly realized she had forgotten her phone.

But when she quickly ran back, she discovered that there was no one left in the ward.

Both Shen Jingxiu and Su Yang had disappeared.

She picked up her phone and stepped out of the ward, only to see Shen Jingxiu already heading in the direction of the ICU, supported by Su Yang.

Wenyan stood in place for a while, quite amused by the situation.

She couldn’t help but think that Shen Jingxiu was truly difficult to get close to.

She didn’t go upstairs to the office after all, because as she turned around, she had already seen someone coming toward her with crutches.

She simply took the crutches and also headed towards the ICU.

As expected, Shen Jingxiu was there to console the driver’s family.

Watching him speak humbly to the driver’s family, apologizing and promising to take care of all the driver’s subsequent medical expenses and work compensation, Wenyan couldn’t help but be moved.

[The normally cold Shen Jingxiu shows warmth in times of crisis. He couldn’t even wait for the crutches for a few minutes. He must be feeling quite bad. I hope everyone recovers soon, including him.]

Having just finished speaking with the driver’s family, Shen Jingxiu didn’t expect to hear Wenyan’s thoughts at this moment.

He didn’t know she had also come.

He instinctively looked back in Wenyan’s direction.

Separated by some distance and a few passersby rushing past, their eyes met.

Seeing the depth in Shen Jingxiu’s gaze, Wenyan couldn’t help but curse inwardly.

[Does he have eyes on his back? How did he notice me?]

But Wenyan quickly realized something.

It was unlikely that Shen Jingxiu sensed her arrival, but rather that he heard her phone’s ringtone.

Because at this moment, her phone was ringing.

It was a call from Zhang Sao at home.

She quickly answered the phone.

“Hello, Zhang Sao, what’s up?”

On the other end, Zhang Sao said, “I can’t get through to Madam’s phone, I wanted to ask if tonight’s family dinner should still be served on time as it’s getting dark.”

“Let me ask my mother first,” Wenyan said, thinking that her mother had been busy and might not have heard her phone. “By the way, have my second brother and fourth brother come back yet?”

“No, they haven’t.”

“None of them has returned?”

“That’s right.”

“Okay, I understand. You wait for me to inquire, and I’ll respond to you shortly.”

After hanging up the phone, Wenyan saw that Su Yang and Shen Jingxiu had already started walking towards her.

She hastily relayed the call from Mrs. Zhang to Su Yang.

Su Yang was actually a bit embarrassed since the timing was awkward.

Noticing this, Shen Jingxiu immediately made the decision for Su Yang.

“Let’s start the meal on time. It’s still early now. Even if there is traffic, it would take just over an hour to get home, which is pretty much the same as my usual time getting off work. My injury isn’t serious. After the fixation, I was supposed to go home to recuperate anyway.”

Su Yang was convinced by Shen Jingxiu and quickly called Mrs. Zhang back.

Wenyan also handed the crutches over to Shen Jingxiu.

She asked offhandedly, “Big brother, aren’t you also going to meet Wen’s parents?”

“Yes.”

Glancing at Shen Jingxiu again, Wenyan still couldn’t hold back.

“Didn’t we agree to wait for me to get the crutches? How come you went to Mum as soon as I turned around?”

Shen Jingxiu was slightly startled for a moment; he hadn’t expected Wenyan to raise this issue so directly.

He chuckled lightly, “You’re too thin, I was afraid I’d crush you.”

Wenyan glared at him, “So you went to Mum?”

Shen Jingxiu’s eyebrows raised slightly. It was the first time he saw her looking at him with that kind of gaze.

The smile on his lips deepened: “Actually, I didn’t dare put much weight on it. It’s all good now, now that the crutches are here.”

By the time the family left the hospital, it was after six o’clock.

Because of the season, it was already pitch black outside.

After driving for a while, Wenyan received a message from Shen Jinghe.

‘What’s going on? Why is nobody at home?’

Wenyan: ‘Didn’t Mrs. Zhang tell you? Big brother had a car accident and injured his leg. We’re all in the hospital. We’re on the way back now.’

‘A car accident? Is he alright?’

‘Don’t worry, it’s just a minor bone fracture. He’s done with the fixation and can recuperate at home now.’

‘…I wasn’t worried, okay?’

‘Keep pretending. By the way, has fourth brother come back?’

‘Him? Haven’t seen him. Did you guys tell him?’

‘We did, he’s probably still on his way. You wait at home for a bit, there’s some traffic. We should be back in half an hour.’

‘Got it.’

However, by the time Wenyan and the others got home, Shen Jingchuan still hadn’t returned.

Su Yang simply gave him a call.

After learning that he was stuck on the road, Shen Yuan started looking for Shen Jinghe to talk.

That was one of his reasons for arranging this family dinner.

He planned to discuss with Shen Jinghe about starting a film and TV company.

Initially, he intended to call Shen Jinghe to his study, but after Shen Jinghe saw that Shen Jingxiu was back and fine, he went upstairs to his own room.

To exhibit his sincerity, Shen Yuan decided to take the initiative and knock on the door of Shen Jinghe’s room.

They talked for quite some time.

Shen Jingchuan returned while they were still talking.

Just as Shen Jingchuan was about to get something from his own room, he passed by Shen Jinghe’s room and overheard the conversation between father and son.

When he heard Shen Yuan eagerly offering the film and TV company, which lacked nothing, to Shen Jinghe, and yet Shen Jinghe was being reluctant, Shen Jingchuan was upset.

Back when he desperately begged the old man to invest in him, he got an outright rejection with no room for negotiation!

Now, here was Shen Yuan, ready to give away a company, and the other party didn’t even want it.

Shen Jingchuan felt deeply wronged and furious, slamming his own room door fiercely! The sound echoed from the first floor to the second, loud and clear for everyone in the house to hear!
