Attention Sir, I Have Your Heart Handcuffed!-Chapter 520 - 376. This is exactly what the criminal wants (3rd watch 3)_3

Shi Nian had also been loitering around "Middle Ages" for several days before catching Yan Jian.

The goods brought back from Asia had to be personally placed by Yan Jian.

Hearing Shi Nian’s words, Yan Jian responded indifferently, "I don’t want to eat."

Shi Nian sat down and filed her nails: "Why not? You were in a world of your own with Little Sound for more than a month in Asia. How come you look so down after returning? You should know that during the month you were away, I was the one managing the shop alone."

"I had to go to work during the day and accompany the kids at home, yet I still had to visit the shop daily... I’m exhausted, I don’t even have time to see a doctor. And yet, you give me no face?"

Yan Jian still seemed down, "I know it’s been hard on you, but I really don’t feel like going out for a meal."

She especially didn’t want to face Little Sound. That brother’s hooked eyes, she feared revealing something.

Luckily, since coming back, Little Sound was busy with cases and returned home late every night, so there was no chance to catch her.

Shi Nian lowered her head again, unhurriedly filing her nails: "Not eating is fine, as an exchange, tell me about you and James. I saw it with my own eyes that day, something’s off between you two."

Yan Jian instantly got annoyed: "Hey, you’re not even my sister-in-law yet! It’s not your place to meddle right now!"

Shi Nian was unfazed: "Really? If you’re brave enough, go and ask your brother if he’s planning on marrying someone else as a sister-in-law. If he tells you there’s another choice, I won’t meddle in your business then."

Yan Jian stomped her feet in frustration.

Knowing her brother’s nature, he’d never dare say that; she didn’t even need to ask.

The nails were almost done, Shi Nian looked at them: "If he has no other choice, I’ll assume I’m the only sister-in-law candidate. In that case, your affairs are for me to meddle in. So speak up."

In the end, the pitiful Yan Jian and Luo Xiansheng, who were almost driven insane, had no choice but to agree to go out for a meal.

At the dinner table, the atmosphere was somewhat subtle.

The subtlety lay in Yan Jian’s attitude toward Little Sound. Once so clingy to Little Sound, tonight Yan Jian seemed to be constantly avoiding his gaze. She tried to avoid direct conversation with him unless absolutely necessary.

Apart from this subtlety, there was another kind: Yan Jian’s unusual demeanor, yet Luo Xiansheng was too preoccupied to notice. He seemed to be avoiding Tang Yanqing in attitude.

These subtleties naturally didn’t escape the eyes of Tang Yanqing and Shi Nian. The two exchanged a silent look and tacitly agreed on their roles.

From then, Shi Nian took it upon herself to converse with Luo Xiansheng.

With the time freed up, Tang Yanqing quietly observed Yan Jian’s reactions.

Shi Nian asked with a smile, "Mr. Luo, can you tell me about your experiences in Asia?"

Due to past incidents involving Meng Chuyan, Luo Xiansheng had been quite impolite to Shi Nian, and now felt particularly embarrassed. Shi Nian initiated the conversation, and he couldn’t not respond.

He then spoke of his experiences in those kingdoms: "Local hotels don’t classify by star ratings or decor, but by their level of security services. The hotel we stayed in employed a security force of over a hundred, armed and on duty 24/7; they also provided each guest with bulletproof vests, guns, and ammunition, making it the most expensive hotel there."

"In such places, the values of human society are completely shattered and reorganized. In such circumstances, as long as they can survive, they’re willing to do anything."
