Crossing the line

Chapter 104 Proof will take at least half an hour
She is like a cinnabar red rose, very fleshy when not in bloom, but when in bloom, her winding branches are slender and ancient, her serrated green leaves are small, and on the branches are such grand and vivid flower buds.

Roses and roses belong to the same family, the Rosaceae family. They have intricate and layered petals that are gorgeous and colorful, and many varieties of roses are as charming as roses.

She is as lovely as a rose, but she doesn't have as many thorns as a rose.

Because there were no signs of exercise, her skin was very soft, as smooth as mutton-fat jade. Wherever Wen Yangzhi's hand touched, it would be pressed down softly. It was as tender as the petals of a rose, and would leave a mark when pressed.

Wen Yangzhi's phone rang. He was about to hang up, but when he saw it was Zhao Qin calling, he swiped his finger and deliberately answered the call next to Yun Yuwan:

"Is something wrong?"

Zhao Qin's voice was careful and flattering: "Gangsheng, please ask your sister to go home early after the dinner."

Wen Yangzhi held Yun Yuwan, who was only wearing 5% of her clothes, and looked at her, then said slowly:

"Ask her if she wants to go home."

Wen Yangzhi slapped her lightly on the butt. Zhao Qin heard a "pop" sound on the other end of the face. It wasn't particularly loud, like slapping a mosquito on the arm, or like the sound of a spark or stepping on a dry banana leaf.

But Zhao Qin didn't think much about it.

And Yun Yuwan was being touched by him, and anyone who saw this scene would blush.

Wen Yangzhi called her softly: "Speak."

Although his tone was light and sounded intimate to Yun Yuwan, it sounded commanding and coercive to Zhao Qin. She couldn't help thinking about Yun Yuwan's feelings, and just imagining it made her want to tell Wen Yangzhi to speak nicer to her sister.

But Yun Yuwan answered quickly, without giving her a chance, her voice was close, sticky and hazy: "I'm sleeping at my brother's place tonight."

Zhao Qin felt something was strange, because as soon as Wen Yangzhi asked Yun Yuwan to speak, Yun Yuwan's voice came immediately, as if they were already very close to each other, but according to their relationship, logically they shouldn't be very close.

…Maybe there was just something going on that she wasn’t aware of, maybe sitting together at a dinner party.

Or maybe Yuwan was very afraid of Gangsheng, so she came over as soon as Gangsheng opened his mouth.

Zhao Qin sighed secretly:

"Okay, you can sleep at your brother's place tonight. I want to take you to other banquets and visit other people's homes in a few days."

Yun Yuwan was a little surprised because Zhao Qin never took her to these places.

"Um...should I wear anything?"

Zhao Qin: "I have already picked out the outfit for you, you can just wear it when the time comes."

Yun Yuwan was flattered and for a moment thought she had heard it wrong.

Aunt Qin gave her some clothes?

It has been a long time since anyone had matched her clothes. In the past, her mother would match her clothes for school the next day and place them at the head of her bed.

She had a very strange feeling in her heart, slowly and peacefully like a stream flowing through the mountains.

Aunt Qin...Aunt Qin helped her put on clothes.

very strange.

Zhao Qin deliberately tried to insinuate the issue, trying to test whether their relationship had improved: "Did you and your brother have a good chat at the dinner?"

Wen Yangzhi's hand pressed on her heart. She felt like she was being electrocuted. Yun Yuwan endured it, her voice muffled:
"It's fine. Brother Gangsheng treats me very well."

Wen Yangzhi lowered his eyes and looked at her, touching her cheek as if as a reward.

Zhao Qin was a little surprised, but then she thought that it was probably because Wen Yangzhi was around, and Yun Yuwan couldn't say how Wen Yangzhi treated her.

Even if I have to consider Gangsheng's expression, I can only answer her like this.

It makes sense when you think about it this way.

As expected, their relationship is still as tense as fire and water.

At this moment, the two people who were in a state of intense conflict were hugging each other tightly.

Zhao Qin deliberately said to Wen Yangzhi: "I asked Aunt Wang to prepare bird's nest and candied date porridge for you, and also added some Chinese medicine. The ingredients are all ready, and you can drink it when you come back."

"Okay." Yun Yuwan responded, but her voice was unconsciously slow, "Thank you, Auntie."

Wen Yangzhi hung up the phone directly, bringing her back to reality.

His mobile game came up, and Yun Yuwan lowered her chin like an animal cub that couldn't control her naivety. She clearly knew everything, but her big eyes were so black and white that she looked at him as if she didn't understand anything:
"What do you want to do?"

He untied the ties on her back and whispered, "Get you to sleep."

The trumpet creepers on the panoramic glass terrace trembled.

When Yun Yuwan got up the next day, she saw Wen Yangzhi standing on the terrace outside in his pajamas, holding a pruning shears. He neatly cut off a thick branch without any deviation, leaving a neat break.

With one cut, all the growth disadvantages of this plant were cut off.

She had never taught him how to thin out the branches, but he did it so cleanly without leaving any stray branches.

Yun Yuwan was a little surprised.

It turns out he can.

Her style is totally different from hers. If she were to do the haircut, she would spend more than ten minutes doing it delicately, making it look nice and healthy.

Wen Yangzhi only targeted the worst branch among the messy branches. Even if he accidentally pruned some branches that should not be pruned, the problem had been eradicated.

His cold style is just like his personality.

I watched him put the scissors casually on the balcony table after he finished cutting, and I didn’t know who he was sending the message to.

Without those tangled branches, the room was much brighter, the sunlight was not blocked so much, and every strand of Yun Yuwan's hair was clearly visible.

Wen Yangzhi walked into the room and saw Yun Yuwan with frizzy hair staring at him blankly. He said calmly, "She's awake."

She nodded.

He ignored her and went into the bathroom to wash up.

When he came out again, he saw Yun Yuwan holding his iPad and looking at something intently. Wen Yangzhi buttoned his shirt in front of the mirror: "What are you looking at?"

She chuckled, her face full of smiles: "Enjoy the photos of myself on your iPad."

Wen Yangzhi, who couldn't understand Yun Yuwan's self-confidence in life: "..."

After a while, Wen Yangzhi changed her clothes and came out to see that she was still playing. Because she had too much hair, it was frizzy after waking up, like a cute otaku character with frizzy hair in a comic book, but she was just admiring herself in such a sloppy way.

Wen Yangzhi inexplicably found her cute:

"Still admiring it?"

Yun Yuwan shook his head and turned the iPad screen over.

On the screen, a group of fearless people were stroking a king cobra. The snake was thicker than Wen Yangzhi's calf, three or four meters long, and its front end was taller than Yun Yuwan's calf when standing up.

Wen Yangzhi: “…”

He was as still as a pine tree: "How do you see this?"

Yun Yuwan turned the tablet back and said something shocking: "Actually, I want to keep a snake, too."

This was too inconsistent with Yun Yuwan's temperament, and it was so abrupt that Wen Yangzhi raised his eyebrows in surprise:
"Are you sure you can keep it?"

She held her chin: "I feel I can control it."

Wen Yangzhi looked at her sitting there.

On the wide bed, she didn't seem to take up much space, just a little bit.

She is so small and likes to control dangerous things.

But Wen Yangzhi suddenly thought of something.

Yun Yuwan sat there concentrating on watching others play with the king cobra. She lowered her head, her jet-black hair hanging down, and her small, fair face gave the illusion that she was harmless and could be easily bullied.

But she wasn't scared at all.

A newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger. It may look weak, but in fact it may be brave.

Many talented, beautiful and intelligent people of the opposite sex have expressed their affection for Wen Yangzhi, but it is the innocent-looking Yun Yuwan who is sitting on his bed at this moment.

The simplest is actually the most complex.

He opened the drawer where he kept his watch and said in a slow and gentle voice, "Have you ever thought about what if I'm scared?"

Unexpectedly, Yun Yuwan immediately dropped the tablet, crawled to the end of the bed using both hands and feet, and looked at him with shining eyes: "Wen Yangzhi, are you afraid of snakes?"

"What if I'm afraid?" He stood in the bright dim light of the glass cabinet. The S-shaped crystal tassel chandelier hung on the glass cabinet, refracting and reflecting on the crystal multi-faceted glass.

Yun Yuwan looked at him in the cloakroom: "I want to keep one even more because you are afraid of snakes."

He waited patiently for the little girl to answer: "Why, do you want the snake to bite me to death?"

"I wanted the snake to scare you, and then you'd panic and run into my arms."

She was delighted, picked up the little bunny doll next to her, held it in her arms like a child, and gently stroked the bunny's head:
"Then I'll tell you, dear baby, don't be afraid."

Wen Yangzhi took out a steel watch and tied it to his wrist. The three time zone hour dials on the dial showed the time in the three head offices of Wen's Bank that had been adjusted in advance:

"I'm not your baby."

Yun Yuwan held the rabbit for a while.

Wen Yangzhi pushed the drawer shut, walked out of the cloakroom, and prepared to go out.

Yun Yuwan suddenly asked, "Then what are you?"

He stopped and stood by the unlocked door, which was slightly ajar.

The dignified and lofty figure was like a green mountain, and he asked her in an ambiguous tone, "What do you think?"

Yun Yuwan said slowly: "...I don't know."

Without answering her directly, Wen Yangzhi lowered his eyes and glanced at his watch: "No time."

"What do you mean no time?" Yun Yuwan was confused.

He raised his eyes and glanced at her under the scattered light: "To prove to you what I am, you need to give me at least half an hour."

Yun Yuwan was stunned for a moment, then realized what he said.

But Wen Yangzhi had already closed the door and went out.

Her face flushed and she fell into the bed.

Half an hour...is not enough!
After finally coming to my senses, I found a small box next to the bed. When I opened it, I found four phone cases inside.

All four corners were raised, and the entire back was covered with her Q-version colored paintings. All four were different, with different styles, but she had seen some of the paintings on the subway.

She wore a salt-and-peek dress, peeked through windows, tripped over blue coral, and danced at campus dances.

There are exactly four colors.

Sea blue, sun yellow, pink, light white.

The painting is full and three-dimensional, not like cream glue, but it feels smoother and more delicate than cream glue.

Yun Yuwan is stunning and has an inexplicable sense of fulfillment. There are four different styles that can be used interchangeably.

Is it because last time she said Jiang Yingyu gave her a phone case, which Wen Yangzhi specially customized for her?

He didn't react before, and there has been no response until today, but it turns out that he has been preparing for this all this time.

Wen Yangzhi sent a message to himself. His iPad was logged into his WeChat and a message popped up on the tablet.

Yun Yuwan noticed that the tablet screen suddenly lit up, so she picked it up to look at it.

It was Wen Yangzhi's cold message:
———Mobile phone cases and bank-co-branded peripherals.
