Chapter 456: Chapter 265
"Come on, Wenyan, speak up. If you really like him, you don’t have to feel embarrassed."
Wenyan: "Which eye of yours saw me liking him, Fourth Brother?"
Shen Jingchuan: "So you mean you don’t like him, right?"
Wenyan couldn’t help both crying and laughing: "So why exactly are we discussing this now? It feels totally meaningless."
"How could it be?" Su Yang pulled Wenyan down to sit on the sofa, "If you think Yuanzhou is good, then Mom can arrange a next meeting, and you two can take things further."
"I don’t want that." Wenyan’s face fell, "Mom, first of all, I don’t currently have plans for matchmaking. Secondly, if I want to date someone I like in the future, we’ll develop our relationship on our own. Isn’t the affection between two people a very private matter? If others are watching and urging us, it would be so uncomfortable."
"Exactly!" Shen Jingchuan agreed, "So, Mom, you shouldn’t meddle and try to matchmake. Whenever Eldest Brother brings a friend home, you ask Wenyan what she thinks, so in the future if I bring a friend home, are you going to do the same? And will you ask this about any man who comes to our house? Wenyan isn’t worried about getting married; why are you so eager to push her out? Right?"
Shen Jingchuan raised his eyebrows and looked at Wenyan as he said this last sentence.
Wenyan nodded hastily.
"Mom, that’s the truth, everything my Fourth Brother said is right."
"Then forget it," Su Yang was a little disappointed.
The kids she had given birth to were all stubborn; the eldest one was close to thirty, and despite countless urges and many arranged matchmaking attempts, nothing had come of them.
Her daughter Wenyan was more obedient but had her own ideas as well.
Actually, she also wanted to ask Yulong how she felt about Yuanzhou.
But thinking about it, it seemed inappropriate, as she had already asked the other daughter first.
Su Yang had no choice but to drop it.
But she couldn’t help asking another question.
"By the way, Yanyan, did you and Yuanzhou exchange contact information?"
"Mom..." Wenyan was both crying and laughing, "You’re still thinking about matching us up. Didn’t we agree to forget it?"
"Alright, I won’t ask anymore." 𝑛𝘰𝑣𝘱𝑢𝑏.𝘤𝑜𝘮
Shen Jingchuan: "Yes, Mom, better not to ask. If Wenyan gets annoyed by your questions and stops coming home, that would be a loss not worth the gain."
"Nonsense," Su Yang glared at her youngest son, "Do you think everyone is like you, staying abroad for an entire year every time, not even coming home for the New Year?"
Nevertheless, Su Yang felt a bit scared at the thought.
She hastily looked at Wenyan: "Yanyan, if you don’t like him, Mom won’t ask anymore, but you must not stop coming home out of spite like your Fourth Brother said, got it?"
"Of course not, Mom! These are trivial matters; I won’t let them affect me."
The head of the family, Shen Yuan, also spoke up at this time.
"All right, aren’t we here to talk about travel plans today? Let’s start. Your mom and I have discussed it, and we have a fifteen-day budget, starting from the legal holiday. Of course, this is just an initial plan; the exact details will depend on your schedules. Let’s state our availability now."
"I can."
"I can."
Wenyan and Shen Jingchuan spoke in unison, and both raised their hands at the same time, the synchrony of their actions was impeccable.
Su Yang was very satisfied with their responses.
"That’s great, you two didn’t let Mom down. When it comes to having fun, you are definitely the most in sync."
Then Su Yang looked at the other children: "How about you? Yulong, your work schedule should be consistent with Yanyan’s, right?"
"Yes, but I should spend New Year’s Eve with my dad, because our ancestors in the Qin Family were also Chinese, so we have the tradition of celebrating the Spring Festival. I might need to stay there for two or three days. After that, I’ll have plenty of time."
As staying only two or three days was perfectly manageable, Su Yang’s smile grew even brighter.
"Then what about you, Jinghe? I remember that in the past few years, you were filming around the New Year; can you spare some time this year?"
In previous years, Shen Jinghe filled up his schedule with work over the New Year to avoid going home.
But this year was different.
He had actually resolved the trauma from a childhood kidnapping incident.
Also, after working continuously for several years without a proper break, he had intentionally turned down some jobs requiring him to work over the New Year.
"I can spare more than ten days."
"Really?" Shen Jinghe’s quick agreement made Su Yang a bit incredulous, "I remember your jobs are arranged several months in advance; are you sure it’s okay this year?"
