Wei Sheng Wen Zhan was not happy.
He had wanted Qiao Chuchu to accompany him, but somehow, it turned into Pei Youchuan being here instead!
He took a deep breath and carefully said to Qiao Chuchu, “Alright, let’s do it this way. Since your brother is the one who hurt me, he could go crazy next to me at any moment. To prevent anything from happening, whenever your brother is taking care of me, you must stay by my side.”
Pei Youchuan, disgruntled: “My Qiao Chuchu can’t take care of people. She can’t even pour a cup of water. Why should she stand next to you? Does she need to add to the crowd and boost your presence?”
Qiao Chuchu: “...Bro, I can pour water.”
Pei Youchuan glared at her: “You can’t!”
Wei Sheng Wen Zhan, calm as ever, smiled: “What if the reason you two are standing by my side is because I’m the one adding presence for you?”
Pei Youchuan, after a moment of thought, realized that might actually be true.
His expression quickly changed from reluctant to willing.
He bargained: “Only I can be here. My sister still has to work on her drawings. She can’t be with you all the time.”
Qiao Chuchu was surprised: “Wow, you know I have work?”
[He knows I draw, but still asks me to run errands, making me pick up people, and even injuring Wei Sheng Wen Zhan’s wrist! I heard tetanus shots are really painful. I wonder if the great Wei Sheng Wen Zhan is afraid of the shot.]
Wei Sheng Wen Zhan: “...?”
Pei Youchuan, who had been sulking, suddenly smirked: “Oh, by the way, Mr. Wei Sheng, I heard tetanus shots are painful. I don’t know if the pain from the shot is worse than being injured, hehe~”
Qiao Chuchu: “!”
[Pei Youchuan is just as gossipy as I am!]
Pei Youchuan grinned proudly.
Wei Sheng Wen Zhan, however, narrowed his eyes dangerously: “You’ll know if you try it.”
He suddenly grabbed the fork Pei Youchuan had used and, with the speed of a leopard, jabbed it into Pei Youchuan’s hand!
Pei Youchuan failed to dodge in time, and his hand immediately bled profusely: “!”
His injury was longer and deeper than Wei Sheng Wen Zhan’s, covering his entire hand.
Wei Sheng Wen Zhan smiled with satisfaction: “Go get that tetanus shot, Pei Youchuan. Afterward, you’ll know whether it hurts or not.”
He turned his gaze to Qiao Chuchu, speaking slowly: “Make sure to hold your brother down so he doesn’t jump up at the sight of the needle.”
Qiao Chuchu stood there, stunned: “But if that’s the case, you’re both even now. He poked you, you poked him. One in the palm, one on the wrist. Your wound didn’t hit the artery, just like my brother’s. It looks scary, but it’s not life-threatening.”
Wei Sheng Wen Zhan: “?”
Pei Youchuan, dripping blood: “?”
Wei Sheng Wen Zhan laughed, his voice dripping with amusement: “Qiao Chuchu, are you really going to pretend now?”
Qiao Chuchu, a little shaken, looked apologetic but still reasoned: “Sorry, but I think you two are pretty much even. My brother will handle the cost for the tetanus shot. He started it with his mouth.”
Pei Youchuan: “?”
She lowered her lashes, then quickly glanced at Wei Sheng Wen Zhan: “If you’re not satisfied with the compensation, we can keep negotiating. After all, my brother started this mess. If you want, he can keep serving you.”
Wei Sheng Wen Zhan narrowed his eyes, his gaze dark and full of unspoken intent.
The secretary, holding a tablet, shuddered.
This was bad!
Mr. Wei Sheng was angry!
Qiao Chuchu, unaware, lowered her head, feeling embarrassed to look at Wei Sheng Wen Zhan.
A pale hand suddenly grabbed her face, forcing her to look up.
Qiao Chuchu winced in pain, her gaze colliding with Wei Sheng Wen Zhan’s dangerous eyes.
Pei Youchuan quickly stepped forward: “Wei Sheng Wen Zhan, let go of her!!”
The secretary, quick on his feet, grabbed Pei Youchuan: “Mr. Wei, I can hold him off for a minute and a half! Please hurry!!”
Qiao Chuchu, utterly confused.
Wei Sheng Wen Zhan held her face, leaned down closer to her.
A faint scent of peaches surrounded her.
Qiao Chuchu, momentarily distracted, glanced at the table beside her.
There was a pack of peach-flavored jelly-filled soft candies.
They were all gone.
Did he eat them all?
She felt the pain in her cheek and looked up again to meet Wei Sheng Wen Zhan’s gaze.
His demeanor was intense, scanning her from head to toe, his voice laced with deeper meaning: “The duck that comes to my mouth never flies away, yet today, it sprouted legs.”
Qiao Chuchu’s lips, squeezed by his hand, puffed up, her words muffled: “Is my third brother a duck?”
“No.” Wei Sheng Wen Zhan smirked, his eyes turning colder: “The food is someone else, the first one who made me return empty-handed.”
“But it’s not about the food.” Wei Sheng Wen Zhan fixed his gaze on her eyes, speaking slowly: “It’s about my lack of caution, leaving a loophole, letting the food take the lead.”
Qiao Chuchu still didn’t understand.
[Who is he talking about?]
[Does he have his sights set on my brother?!]
Qiao Chuchu’s eyes widened like copper bells: [No, my comic is a BG story!!]
Wei Sheng Wen Zhan’s lips curled up, as he leaned closer to her ear: “Don’t worry, I’m not interested in your brother. Don’t overthink it. I’m just giving you a reminder. If you make me unhappy, even though this issue is my fault.”
Qiao Chuchu: “...Then do you want to watch funny videos with me?”
Wei Sheng Wen Zhan: “?”
She sincerely pulled out her phone: “I just saw some funny videos, how about I share them with you?”
Wei Sheng Wen Zhan: “??”
He chuckled, his smile ambiguous: “I’m already happy.”
Qiao Chuchu: “?”
[What’s going on with him? One moment happy, the next moment not? Is he a pufferfish? He puffs up when angry and deflates when not?]
Wei Sheng Wen Zhan’s lips curled with a knowing smile, patting her head: “You’re right, Qiao Chuchu, the issue with your brother is indeed my fault. We’re even now.”
He brushed past her.
Leaving behind a faint, refreshing scent of peaches.
Qiao Chuchu froze: “Wait.”
Wei Sheng Wen Zhan turned back to look at her.
She pointed at the peach-flavored soft candy on the table: “Do you like peach-flavored soft candies?”
[Please say yes!]
[My son in the comic loves peach-flavored soft candies!! This is a cute detail! I set this detail for my son!!]
Wei Sheng Wen Zhan tilted his chin, looking down at her: “I ate them.”
Qiao Chuchu’s face flushed red instantly, her eyes sparkling with excitement: “What a coincidence!”
Wei Sheng Wen Zhan tilted his head, smiling with a deeper meaning: “Do you like them too?”
She nodded eagerly!
Wei Sheng Wen Zhan comfortably slipped his hands into his pockets, standing by the door, speaking gently: “I really enjoy biting into the soft, outer shell of the soft candy and savoring the even softer, creamy filling inside. It’s so soft that it practically melts in your mouth, and it feels like I’m teasing the candy. It’s very relaxing.”
Qiao Chuchu: “...”

[... As expected of a big shot, first Wei Sheng Yucan switching men, and now Wei Sheng Wen Zhan enjoying juicy peach-flavored soft candies.]
Wei Sheng Wen Zhan smiled even more happily: “I’m leaving now, Miss Qiao. Aren’t you going to say goodbye?”
