Chapter 231 Cigarette Butts
"Miss San?" A servant, wearing an apron, turned out behind the partition screen between the kitchen and the dining room. She was the aunt who was in charge of cooking.

"What about the rest?"

"Mr. and Madam took the Eldest Miss and the Second Miss to a charity dinner, and they don't eat dinner at home..." When the servant was speaking, he carefully watched Shen Yu's expression from the corner of his eye. When she went out to socialize, she was deliberately ignored, and she was left alone. It was pitiful to think about it.

Shen Yu didn't see the sympathy in the servant's eyes, even if she saw it, she wouldn't take it seriously.

In her previous life, the cold treatment she received in this family was much worse than this, and she gradually became numb after getting used to it to the extreme, but now it doesn't matter anymore.

"Let's eat," she pulled out the chair and sat down, "I'm just hungry too."

"Eh--"

Soon, the dishes came to the table, with two meat, two vegetables and one soup, full of color, fragrance and taste.

The servant set out two sets of bowls and chopsticks, and Shen Yu stared for a moment.

"Miss San, wait a moment, I'll call the young master."

"My brother is at home?!"

"Yeah, I've been here all afternoon...Young Master! You're here..."

Shen Yu followed the trend and looked towards the entrance of the dining room. The man was dressed in casual at home, a bit less aggressive and more easy-going. The newspaper in his hand was folded together, indicating that he had just finished reading it, and the glasses on the bridge of his nose hadn't had time to take it off yet. The gold wire frame was slightly reflective, perhaps because of the angle, Shen Yu couldn't see the true emotion of the eyes behind the lens.

"elder brother."

The man nodded slightly, and sat beside her, "Hungry?"

"A bit."

"Let's have dinner."

"Eldest young master, third miss, please use it slowly." After finishing speaking, the servant bowed and left the dining room.

Shen Hou was very focused when eating, her eyes were either on the plate or in the bowl, she ate slowly, looking delicate and refined.

Shen Qian's table manners have been cultivated since he was a child, and there is nothing to be picky about. Even a simple act of serving food is full of dignity.

The two ate in silence, speechless for a while.

"Try this..." Suddenly, Shen Qian put a piece of pork ribs into her bowl.

Shen Yu didn't look up, but only thanked softly.

The two put down their chopsticks almost at the same time, and Shen Yu got up and went to the living room. At this time, the sky was already dark and the night was falling, but the lights were still not turned on, and the room was dark.

She frowned subconsciously, walked to the position of the switch, clicked——

The sudden light made Shen Yu couldn't help squinting his eyes, and a smell of smoke penetrated into his nostrils. The closer he got to the sofa, the stronger the smell became.

really--

In the ashtray under the coffee table, there were densely packed cigarette butts inserted upside down, about a dozen or twenty.

There are not many people who smoke in the house, apart from Shen Chunjiang, there is only Shen Qian.

Suddenly, the scene of talking with the servant just now appeared in his mind——

"My brother is at home?!"

"Yeah, it's been all afternoon..."

So, he sat in the living room smoking all afternoon?

Shen Yu's first reaction was that something happened in Tianshui Realm, but after thinking about it, she felt something was wrong...

Shen Qian went to great lengths to offend Lu Shen, and used this to show his favor to Jingping Yan's family. He wanted to be sure of Huihai's development project, and he should be proud of it, but he smoked stuffy cigarettes alone?
Could it be...the company has other problems?
No, it won't.

Shen Yu quickly denied this conjecture.

According to what she knew about Shen Qian, if it was a business blow, he would only get more frustrated and courageous, and calmly think about how to solve the problem instead of paralyzing himself with nicotine, a will-sapping thing.

After thinking for a moment, Shen Yu turned and went upstairs.

Looks like I need someone to check it out...

Back in the room, she just took out her mobile phone, ready to call Miaomiao, tap tap tap——

There was a knock on the door.
