Chapter 114: He Only Has One Sister, Isn’t She A Treasure?

Wen Zhanming’s floor was as impenetrable as a fortress, and not even a fly could get in, let alone someone like Yu Xiaobao!
The members of the Wen family were no pushovers either. They were deliberately causing trouble for Wen Jin and Wen Zhanyan.
In case something went wrong while Yu Xiaobao was there, Wen Zhanyan knew he would never forgive himself.
However, Yu Xioabao wasn’t burdened by these thoughts as she tapped away at her screen.
Yu Xiaobao said, “Mommy said she’s attending a dinner party tonight and won’t be back for a while. This is a perfect opportunity for me to check on our great-grandfather at the hospital. Brother, can you cover for me?”
Yu Dabao cast a critical look at Yu Xiaobao and questioned, “Yu Xinnuan, can you be a bit more sensible?”
Snorting, Yu Xiaobao replied, “How am I not sensible? Brother, don’t you want to visit great-grandfather too?”
His words briefly silenced Yu Dabao. He did want to go, but he understood the situation well, knowing when it was safe to visit and when it wasn’t.
After all, it was not as simple as it seemed when something happened to the Wen family.
Yu Xiaobao continued confidently, “You and Brother Zhanyan look alike, so it’s no wonder you’d be in trouble. But I look nothing like you guys, and I resemble Mommy. Why would anyone from the Wen family suspect me? I just need to get inside.”
Yu Dabao found himself unable to counter Yu Xiaobao’s argument, perhaps taken aback by the audacity of his reasoning.
Entering was one thing, but what then? Should this tell the Wen family that Yu Xiaobao was Wen Jin’s secret illegitimate daughter?
Preposterous!
Meanwhile, Wen Zhanyan was feeling a bit overwhelmed but struggled to find a way to reject Yu Xiaobao. After pondering for a moment, he responded to Yu Xiaobao on WeChat.
Wen Zhanyan said, “Xiaobao, it’s risky with the Wen family members around.” Yu Xiaobao replied, “I’m not scared! If they come at me, I’ll take them on, one by one.”
Though her tone was a tad cocky, it was quintessentially Yu Xiaobao.
Wen Zhanyan couldn’t help but laugh out loud. When he thought of those people who were screaming because of Yu Xiaobao, Wen Zhanyan suddenly felt less worried.
It seemed the Wen family had more to fear from Yu Xiaobao than the other way around.
Considering it, Wen Zhanyan gave his assent.
Wen Zhanyan said, “Alright, contact me when you’re ready. I’ll assess the situation.”
Wen Zhanyan added, “But I can’t guarantee success. I’ll do my best!”
Yu Xiaobao replied, “Understood!”
Yu Dabao looked at the conversation between the two and almost felt like he was going to spit blood.
Yu Xiaobao was not thinking clearly. Shouldn’t Wen Zhanyan calm down and stop Yu Xiaobao? Why did Wen Zhanyan join in the fun? Was this a case of wanting the world to be in chaos?
Yu Dabao took a deep breath to calm himself down.
He was beginning to realize that not only did he have unreliable parents, but he also had unreliable siblings.
It was truly baffling how carefree and optimistic they could be, completely disregarding any concerns.
Yu Dabao said, “Wen Zhanyan, Yu Xiaobao, can you two stop amusing yourselves like this? Don’t you think about the consequences? Don’t you consider Mommy’s feelings?”
Wen Zhanyan was speechless.
Honestly, he hadn’t given it much thought. He had simply found it hard to reject Yu Xiaobao’s request.
Seeing Yu Dabao’s frustration, Yu Xiaobao cautiously approached him, gently shaking his arm. She spoke softly, “Brother, I just want to go see great-grandfather.”
With his hands clasped together, Yu Xiaobao had a pleading look on her face. “I promise to be extremely careful. Please trust me, I won’t get into any trouble.”
“What if something does happen? Have you thought about the consequences?” Yu Dabao asked sternly.
Yu Xiaobao blinked and replied, “Well, we’ll deal with it if it does!”
She patted her chest confidently and added, “Why worry? There’s nothing in this world that scares me, Yu Xiaobao!”
Yu Dabao was speechless.
He felt like he needed to wash up and go to sleep…
Yu Dabao realized he couldn’t have a rational conversation with Yu Xiaobao anymore.
What was worse was that Wen Zhanyan seemed to be encouraging this behavior.
Yu Dabao was at a loss. He was exhausted.
At this point, Yu Dabao didn’t even want to say anything. Yu Xiaobao continued trying to appease him, “Dabao, don’t worry. We’ll all be just fine.”
Yu Dabao glared at Yu Xiaobao.
What could he do?
There wasn’t much he could do.
His own younger sister, he could only pamper her, coddle her, and clean up after her messes. He was practically wiping her backside.
Yu Dabao paid no more attention to Yu Xiaobao, instead lowering his head to converse with Wen Zhanyan on WeChat.
Yu Dabao said, “Wen Zhanyan if anything goes wrong with Xiaobao, I’ll hold you accountable!”
Wen Zhanyan replied, “If I’m in trouble, I won’t let anything happen to Xiaobao!”
Yu Dabao said, “Remember what you said!”
With those words, Yu Dabao promptly closed the tablet, grabbed Yu Xiaobao, and pulled her onto the bed. “Mommy’s back. You better get some sleep!”
Yu Xiaobao obediently stood up and planted a kiss on Yu Dabao’s cheek. “My dearest Dabao, you’re the best. I love you the most.” Yu Dabao’s face was still stern.
Yet, as he gazed at Yu Xiaobao, his expression softened.
After all, she was his one and only sister, a treasure in his hands.
At that moment, after Wen Jin made sure that Wen Zhanming was going to be alright, he and Wen Ye returned to the Wen family’s residence in the capital.
Previously, Lu Nanxin had left early to prepare, as she was going to accompany Wen Jin to the Zhou family’s evening banquet.
Lu Nanxin was very mindful of her appearance by Wen Jin’s side. Therefore, she aimed to present herself in the most impeccable image. Wen Jin was aware of Lu Nanxin’s intentions and personally arranged for her transportation. He ensured that the best hairstylists and makeup artists in the capital attended to her.
Even her gown was a limited edition.
To a significant extent, Lu Nanxin’s vanity was appeased.
As for the members of the Wen family, Wen Jin wasn’t overly concerned. With Wen Zhanming’s successful surgery, they wouldn’t dare to make any moves at this time, regardless of their courage.
Wen Jin’s top priority now was to locate Yu Anwan.
Taking a deep breath, Wen Jin collected his emotions and sat quietly in the car.
The vehicle smoothly advanced toward the Wen family mansion.
Meanwhile, Wen Ye observed Wen Jin with a subtle expression, his thoughts consumed by the airport incident.
Up until now, Wen Ye couldn’t snap out of his shock. The extent of his astonishment was palpable.
“What are you doing?” Wen Jin’s patience waned, and he finally spoke up.
Wen Ye’s gaze seemed to bore into him, part probing, part avid curiosity. It sent shivers down his spine.
Even if Wen Ye was Wen Jin’s paternal half-brother, Wen Jin disliked being scrutinized in such a manner by another man.
“I’m not interested in men.” Wen Jin’s tone grew solemn. “Wen Ye, if you keep staring at me like that, do you believe I’ll promptly escort you to the airport and send you off to Africa?”
Wen Ye snapped back to reality in an instant.
He jolted, then mustered an unusual air of determination as he averted his gaze from Wen Jin.
Hmph, big brother, there came a time when you begged me.. I knew your biggest secret!
