Although she could leave, taking advantage of the child's compassion to leave would make Shen Lin feel guilty in any situation.

Just when Shen Lin was a little sorry, Yan Wenxuan's mouth was really pouting, and he was about to cry.

This was completely unexpected by Shen Lin, so she quickly retracted her heart of wanting to hand over Yan Wenxuan to the nanny, and held the child tightly in her arms.

"What's wrong? Why do you look like you're going to cry? ”

Even for children, the lacrimal ducts are relatively developed, but Yan Wenxuan rarely cries. But now, suddenly in front of her, Shen Lin was a little caught off guard, and comforted Yan Wenxuan in panic, Shen Lin asked, "Is it because you want your aunt to go too?" ”

In fact, when the child hears these words, his expression becomes more intense and his little head keeps turning.

Shen Lin didn't know if it was better to have his own position in Yan Wenxuan's heart, or if it was better to be sad because the child was too difficult to get along with.

Rubbing Yan Wenxuan's face helplessly, Shen Lin persuaded softly: "Hey, Auntie really wants to leave because of something, she didn't mean to avoid you." ”

Although there were no tears, Yan Wenxuan still sobbed twice.

"I know Auntie has her own work to do, but Auntie, I'm really scared right now, I don't know who I should go to."

As he spoke, the child's tears almost immediately slipped from his eyes, and Shen Lin panicked.

The child sobbed and could not speak for a long time. Shen Lin went from panic to worry.

She had never seen Yan Wenxuan so sad.

Children are called "children" because they are much weaker than ordinary adults, but Yan Wenxuan has always been much smarter than his peers.

However, like today, this was unheard of. His eyes turned red directly, and tears were about to fall. If it's really a big deal, can you still force a child like this?

Shen Lin put Yan Wenxuan's head on her shoulder and hugged him tightly for a while, asking what happened while coaxing.

Fortunately, the child's emotions quickly eased, and the crying quickly became quieter, but he still did not raise his head from Shen Lin's shoulder.

"Auntie, grandma and Grandpa Gu all said that Aunt Gu would be my mother, and they wanted Aunt Gu and Dad to get married."

Yan Wenxuan looked at Shen Lin with tears in his eyes.

Shen Lin originally wanted to raise his hand to wipe away the tears on Yan Wenxuan's face. As a result, when the child said this, she was suddenly stunned and did not know how to respond.

"Xuan Xuan may have misunderstood? It's possible that they're just kidding you. ”

Shen Lin smiled in return, and the voice of explanation was a little choked, which was very unnatural.

However, the hand that had originally stopped in mid-air still moved slowly, wiping away the tears on Yan Wenxuan's face.

Yan Wenxuan saw that Shen Lin didn't believe it, his eyes became even redder, and he was a little eager to defend himself.

He seemed worried that Shen Lin wouldn't believe him. Yan Wenxuan also told Shen Lin all the conversations he had heard about Fang Lanqing and Gu Hong.

The more Shen Lin listened, the more she could feel the coolness in her blood.

She had long known that Fang Lanqing's candidate for daughter-in-law was Gu Yueyue, but she didn't expect that Fang Lanqing had already contacted Gu Yueyue's father in just a few days, and the two sides began to talk about marriage.

However, compared to them, Shen Lin cared more about Yan Jingzhe's thoughts.

Swallowing a mouthful of saliva with difficulty, Shen Lin was scared and worried.

Smiling hesitantly, looking at Yan Wenxuan, Shen Lin's voice was a little ethereal: "What about your father?" What did he say? ”

When Yan Wenxuan heard this, he immediately closed his mouth and fell silent.

Shen Lin's heart seemed to be immediately pushed into the ice cave. Is it a promise? agreed, that's why I didn't want her to appear on this occasion, let her go first, and wait until I had time to see her.

So what is she now? A standard mistress?

Shen Lin was just speculating on his own, but Yan Wenxuan's silence seemed to confirm Shen Lin's inner speculation.

The more silent Yan Wenxuan was, the heavier Shen Lin's heart sank.

When Yan Wenxuan spoke again, Shen Lin's heart had already fallen to the bottom.

"Dad," Yan Wenxuan paused and looked up at Shen Lin. "Dad, he said that eventually my aunt will be my mother."

Yan Wenxuan said, his eyes looking at Shen Lin tentatively.

"Auntie, will you? Will what Dad said come true? ”

Shen Lin didn't know how to answer the question Yan Wenxuan, which was actually what she wanted to ask.

Will she be Yan Jingzhe's wife? I'm afraid only Yan Jingzhe can answer this question.

Shen Lin's silence brought an even heavier blow to Yan Wenxuan's already fragile heart.

"It turns out that there is a reason for the panic in the heart."

Shen Lin, the first time I saw an adult's emotional "panic" appear on a child's face, Yan Wenxuan's words were like a long-term worry about misfortune finally confirmed.

This grief is not occupied by someone else because the child has lost a toy, it is just sadness.

This time, Yan Wenxuan didn't sob, and there was no sound. The little one's tears were silent and kept overflowing from his eyes.

He should have cried, but he didn't.

The little one stubbornly bit his lower lip with his upper teeth, keeping silent tears.

Shen Lin watched him try his best not to cry, and suddenly remembered his own year.

On the day she lost her mother and was taken home by Shen Aoming, she cried as painfully as Yan Wenxuan.

Those days when he refused to make a voice were like blades, piercing into his heart and slashing open in his heart.

At that time, Shen Lin was almost ten years old, but now Yan Wenxuan is indeed only four years old.

This child, mature makes people feel distressed.

Stretching out his hand, Shen Lin wiped away the tears on Yan Wenxuan's cheeks and tried her best to soothe: "Auntie and your father have the same hope. Because the answer was too uncertain, Shen Lin could only comfort Yan Wenxuan by expressing his thoughts.

But this sentence alone was enough to make Yan Wenxuan stop crying.

Yan Wenxuan raised his head and looked at Shen Lin hopefully, reconfirming what Shen Lin said.

The child who didn't want to mess with her cried again, so she repeated what she had just said.

Yan Wenxuan smiled with tears in his eyes.

"So, will Auntie go with me to Grandma's birthday party?" When he said this, Yan Wenxuan was still full of hope.

Shen Lin, who received such a request, didn't know how to refuse.

After hesitating for a long time, Shen Lin knew that if she went back this time, she would most likely face the double humiliation and blow of Fang Lanqing and Gu Yueyue.

However, if he didn't go back to the banquet, Yan Wenxuan would definitely be very disappointed, and even cry more than before.

Thinking of Yan Wenxuan's pitiful crying just now, Shen Lin couldn't help but couldn't bear to refuse anymore.

Being ridiculed, especially by Gu Yueyue, is not once or twice. If it's ugly, she'll put up with it again, at best this time it won't be worse.

Thinking like this, Shen Lin gritted her teeth and nodded in anticipation of Yan Wenxuan.

Yan Wenxuan was as happy as a child who finally had candy to eat, and pushed Shen Lin to start moving forward.

The nanny standing on the side finally couldn't help it anymore and reminded her in a low voice, "Miss Shen, the old lady's birthday party is about to start." Please hurry over with the young master. ”

Shen Lin nodded at the nanny, wiped away the tears on Yan Wenxuan's face, and then walked to the banquet hall with Yan Wenxuan in her arms.

At that time, Fang Lanqing's birthday party had officially begun, and the door of the banquet hall had been closed.

Fortunately, the waiters guarding the banquet hall were all familiar with the appearance of the Yan family, so even though the banquet had already begun, they opened the door for the three of them.

The wooden door of the banquet hall is heavy, and when opened, it makes a dull and loud sound, like the door of an ancient castle being opened.

The originally dark venue, the beams of light gathered on the stage instantly hit the gate.

Fang Lanqing and Yan Jingzhe on the stage, as well as everyone under the stage, looked at the door in the direction of the spotlight.

Shen Lin was wearing the royal blue dress sent by Fang Lanqing, and was holding Yan Wenxuan, who was wearing a small white suit, in her arms. They all maintain the same expressions when faced with everyone's curious gaze, and only when they look at each other does something change.

Fang Lanqing frowned slightly when she saw Shen Lin hugging Yan Wenxuan.

It's too similar, whether it's from the expression, eyes, or the tears at the corners of the eyes, it's too similar, she and Gu Yueyue have the same questions.

When Fang Lanqing saw Shen Lin for the first time, she thought that Shen Lin was very good and looked very similar to Yan Wenxuan. She even doubted whether Shen Lin was Yan Wenxuan's biological mother.

However, I later learned that Shen Lin was complacent, always very upright, and did not look like a person who would coax children. Fang Lanqing gave up that idea.

But now, Fang Lanqing couldn't help but start to doubt the blood relationship between Shen Lin and Yan Wenxuan again.

Thinking of this, Fang Lanqing walked down the steps with a smile, walked to the door where Shen Lin and Yan Wenxuan were, and greeted Yan Wenxuan with a smile and open arms.

"My grandson is finally here! Let grandma hug! ”

When Fang Lanqing came down from the stage, Yan Jingzhe followed her, staring at Shen Lin all the time, without looking away.

Shen Lin could feel Yan Jingzhe's confusion, incomprehension, and even anger, even if they didn't make any eye contact.

Because of this feeling, Shen Lin always avoided Yan Jingzhe's eyes and only looked at Fang Lanqing, and then when Fang Lanqing came over, he handed Yan Wenxuan in his arms to Fang Lanqing and politely said Happy Birthday.

Fang Lanqing nodded at Shen Lin, and then left with Yan Wenxuan.

The way Yan Jingzhe looked at Shen Lin was that he wanted to say something to Shen Lin, but there were people all around. Shen Lin also gave the child to the old lady, and then retreated into the crowd, without giving Yan Jingzhe any chance to be alone with her. She knew that Yan Jingzhe would be angry because of her stay. What's more obvious is that if she had time to be alone with Yan Jingzhe at this time, Yan Jingzhe would definitely lose her temper.

In fact, they all need to calm down now.

What Shen Lin didn't know was that when she was entangled in the crowd, there was a person who kept staring at her and didn't leave, and that person was Gu Yueyue.

She watched Shen Lin retreat into the crowd, and then she slowly walked through the crowd and continued to approach Shen Lin.
