"Manxun, Mancheng, it's really not what you think! " Shen Manting was utterly embarrassed.
Xue Chenkong looked at Shen Manting's intimate relationship with her brothers, and his eyes were filled with displeasure. He thought, "Ah Ting can't have secrets with others, not even her brothers! "
Shen Manming, the seventh brother, did not care about the look on his face. He lifted his chin proudly at Xue Chenkong and said, "Let's go, Chenkong. Our swimming pool is huge. "
Shen Manming was only two years older than Shen Manting. He was 20 years old in the current year, while Xue Chenkong was already 24 years old. When he thought about how the usually arrogant Mr. Chenkong of the Xue family had become his brother-in-law, he felt a sense of pride. It was refreshing to address him casually.
When Xue Chenkong's name was called out, a hint of hostility flashed across his eyes, but he quickly concealed it. He tugged at Shen Manting's sleeve and said cutely, "Ah Ting, I'll be back soon. "
All Shen Manting wanted presently was some peace and quiet. She glanced at Xue Chenkong, then left him to fend for himself, then turned around and went to look for her sister-in-law Le Yiqing and her niece Shen Lili.
"Yiqing, I didn't see you eating much during dinner. Are you feeling unwell? " Shen Manting said as she looked at Le Yiqing, who was playing toy blocks with Shen Lili.
Le Yiqing was stunned for a moment before she shook her head. "I'm fine. "
Shen Manting frowned and looked worried. "You don't look well. Does Manyang know? "
Upon hearing that, Le Yiqing changed her expression. She forced a smile and replied, "He knows. I'm really fine. Thank you for your concern, Ah Ting. " She was truly grateful. In the family, Shen Manting was the most carefree person, and she was also the person she admired the most. Even though Shen Manting was born into an influential family like the Shen family, she was not arrogant at all. On the contrary, she was so capable that she was already a genius doctor at the age of 18 years old... In comparison, she could only stay at home like a caged canary, unable to go anywhere.
Feeling the disappointment in Le Yiqing's eyes, Shen Manting frowned. After her brother got married, he moved out. Shen Lili was already two years old, but they didn't spend much time together. She could tell that there must be something wrong with their relationship. "Yiqing, tell me the truth. Did Manyang bully you?" she asked. "Tell Mom and she'll definitely teach Manyang a lesson. "
Le Yiqing's heart was filled with warmth, but she still shook her head. "It's just a small matter. I can handle it. "
Shen Manting thought of the fragments of memories in her dream and said earnestly, "Yiqing, my big brother is just a man of few words and has a cold personality. But he really loves you. "
He loved her very much? Le Yiqing felt like she had heard a joke, but she did not want to talk about her troubles. She just smiled and uttered, "I don't expect his love, I just want... "
"What do you want? " Shen Manting asked anxiously when she saw that Le Yiqing had stopped talking.
"Nothing. Let's talk about something else. " Le Yiqing changed the topic, obviously not wanting to talk anymore.
Shen Manting looked at Le Yiqing in confusion. Everyone could tell that her brother, Shen Manyang, loved his wife, Le Yiqing, so why didn't Le Yiqing believe him? It seemed that she had to have a talk with her big brother.
The two of them were playing with Shen Lili when they heard footsteps coming from the door. The brothers had returned, but all of them had strange expressions on their faces. It was as if they had been defeated by someone else...
Shen Manting looked around and asked in confusion, "Where's Chenkong? "
"He'll be here soon, " Shen Manxuan, her fourth brother, replied. Then, he patted his younger sister's shoulder and continued, "Just now, we helped you to do a good test. In the future, you will definitely... have a good sex life. "
Shen Manting blushed and pushed away her fourth brother, who was the most hyper of them all, and said, "You're the lamest! I'll go see him. "
When Shen Manting walked toward the swimming pool, she saw a tall figure lying by the pool. "Chenkong? " she asked. She quickly ran over and patted his shoulder, trying to get him up, but she was too weak. Just as she was about to call for help, Xue Chenkong suddenly grabbed her wrist and turned to look at her.
His misty eyes met Shen Manting's anxious little face, and he suddenly said smugly, "Ah Ting, you finally came out to find me. "
Having been scared to death, Shen Manting grumbled unhappily, "They left you here alone? "
"Are you concerned about me, Ah Ting? I'm fine. Don't worry. " Xue Chenkong climbed out of the water, then hugged Shen Manting and kissed her. He said excitedly, "I'm happy that you care about me. You don't have to blame them. I was the one who asked them to leave first. "
