Chapter 362: We’re Family
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Jiang Wei was not a lecherous person. At that time, Wei Xiao had specifically taken her to a drinking party and arranged for Jiang Wei to be drugged.
Wen Nian had resisted, but Huang Yue kept pressuring her to claim that Wei Xiao couldn’t secure approval for a piece of land and he needed Jiang Wei to approve this . Thus, Wen Nian reluctantly spent the night with Jiang Wei.
The memory of the man’s brutality in bed and his disdainful attitude toward her when he woke up sent shivers down Wen Nian’s spine.
Although Wen Nian had accompanied many people in her previous life, the realization that Jiang Wei was a member of the Jiang family, Jiang Ning’s uncle, and Jiang Chun’s father made her feel nauseous.
“Ugh!” Wen Nian couldn’t help but retch. Memories of the past flooded back, overwhelming her.
“Wen Nian, Wen Nian!” Shen Jun quickly patted her back gently. “Did you not rest well? Are you feeling unwell? Shall we go back now?”
Wen Nian felt disgusted and vomited out her lunch again. Shen Jun hurriedly ran to the nearby supermarket and bought a bottle of water for her.
“You vomited so much. Maybe you have a stomach flu. I’ll send you back first.” Shen Jun took a tissue and gently wiped the corner of her mouth. “You’ve been too tired these past few days. Don’t think about this anymore. 1’11 get someone to investigate the rest. School will start in two days. Rest well for two days.”
Wen Nian didn’t say anything. She didn’t know what to say to Shen Jun.
She looked at Shen Jun’s concerned eyes and thought that she had not fallen in this life. She did not have to accompany the big shots or sacrifice herself for that despicable Wei Xiao. Thinking of this, her eyes moistened.
Shen Jun was still holding her hand and nagging. Wen Nian whispered, “Shen Jun, thank you.”
Although he heard her clearly, Shen Jun thought that she was thanking him for the recent events.
He stood in front of Wen Nian and said seriously, “I’m not joking with you today. I’m serious.”
“What?” Wen Nian had yet to recover and did not understand what he was talking about.
“I said we’re all family. You’re my girlfriend and you’ll be my wife in the future. Your family is my family. We’re family.”
Seeing Shen Jun’s sincere declaration and serious request, Wen Nian was stunned for a moment. Then, the two of them looked at each other for two seconds and suddenly turned their heads away in embarrassment.
“I-I’ll send you back now. 1’11 buy medicine and send it over later. You might… might have a cold.”
Thinking of what he had just said, Shen Jun became more and more uneasy. Wasn’t this a proposal? He hadn’t prepared anything. This was too informal!
He stole a glance at Wen Nian. She only nodded and lowered her head without saying anything. However, he could see that her ears were already red. She was clearly embarrassed.
The two of them returned to the Wen family awkwardly. Shen Jiang had already received Shen Jun’s instructions to buy a large bag of medicine.
Wen Nian looked at the various cold medicines in front of her and said speechlessly, “It’s not good to send medicine during the new year, right?”
Shen Jun obviously didn’t think so much. He was stunned for a moment, then said seriously, “Then give me the money. Transfer me a yuan. Consider it as you bought it.”
Wen Nian was a little speechless. She stood at the door and took out a red packet that Zhou Mei was about to give out for the new year. She really put a coin in.
“It’s for you.” Wen Nian pouted, indicating for Shen Jun to accept it.
Looking at her face that had regained its color, Shen Jun really wanted to take a bite, but because they were at the Wen family’s door, he could only give up.
After watching Shen Jun’s car leave, Wen Nian began to recall something that he had never wanted to recall.
In her previous life, she had worked hard in the entertainment industry and had always been in Jingdu. She was quite familiar with Jingdu. After all, she was a C- or D-list actress and had attended many important dinners. The Jiang family in the capital was indeed powerful.
That time, Wei Xiao plotted against Jiang Wei, and Huang Yue even used a pinhole camera to take a video of two people. The video was used to threaten Jiang Wei.
Jiang Wei was also a ruthless character. He had helped Wei Xiao do many things on the surface, but he had also caused a lot of trouble in secret.
At the thought that Wei Lai would go to prison and Wei Xiao would get the land in the capital, there was nothing to say about Wei Lai taking the blame for Jiang Chun. However, it was impossible for a person like Jiang Wei to really support a grandson of a small family like Wei Xiao.
Even if Wei Lai helped Jiang Chun take the blame, Wei Jiang should be the one to benefit in the end. There’s no logical reason for Jiang Wei to support Wei Xiao, especially when Wei Xiao has evidence of Wei Feng’s murder.
Wen Nian was a little annoyed as she scrolled through her WeChat Moments. She came across a classmate’s post expressing sympathy for the Wei family, mentioning that Wei Xiao had single-handedly supported the entire Wei family during a challenging time.
Attempting to quickly scroll past the post, Wen Nian’s fingers hesitated when she saw the accompanying photo.. To her surprise, the person beside Wei Xiao was someone she had encountered in her previous life!
