Chapter 119

Yu Shu asked, "Do you know where the circuit breaker is?"

Shen Youlin shook his head. Yu Shu then beat him up, "You're useless at everything except being a burden."

"...Wah."

After struggling for so long, Yu Shu was also tired. She went back with Shen Youlin to the children's room on the second floor to rest.

As the night grew later, the temperature dropped lower. The velvet curtains were pulled down to keep them warm.

Shen Youlin hugged Yu Shu and looked at the pirate ship kids bed he loved so much when he was little. He marveled that one day he would come back here to spend the night with his wife.

Yu Shu said, "Anyway, since we have nothing to do now, start confessing."Th.ê most uptodate novels are published on n(0)velbj)n(.)co/m

She set a two-minute timer on Shen Youlin's phone, "I'll give you two minutes to organize your words."

Shen Youlin scratched his head, "Where should I start?"

"Start from the beginning!"

"Then I'd have to go back to when Granny Yu Fanxing was pregnant with me."

Shen Youlin was an unplanned child of Yu Fanxing and Shen Chaowen. At first, they didn't intend to keep him. Firstly, Yu Fanxing was no longer young. Secondly, they already had children. But Shen Youfei somehow learned about this and told Granny. Under Granny's firm intervention, Yu Fanxing was brought back to the old house to carry the pregnancy.

From the beginning, he was not expected. During the pregnancy, Yu Fanxing felt extremely uncomfortable. She even had placental abruption during childbirth and almost died on the operating table.

Yu Fanxing’s health collapsed. It took her several years to recover. For Yu Fanxing, beauty was life. The stretch marks on her belly and the long scar were even more unbearable than death. So she resented Shen Youlin and refused to see him.

"But it doesn't matter. I have my Elder Sister," Shen Youlin said very calmly about this past, "Seeing how Yu Fanxing was then, she felt very guilty, so she raised me by her side. We lived in this house. She was just a half-grown kid herself then, thirteen or fourteen. She had already learned from the nanny how to take care of me."

Feeding, bathing, coaxing to sleep, teaching to speak, telling bedtime stories...

Although Shen Youlin had three nannies to take care of him, Shen Youfei still did everything hands-on.

The first word Shen Youlin spoke was not dad or mom, but Elder Sister.

Shen Youfei became a mother figure to him at first out of guilt towards Yu Fanxing. Before long, it changed into affection for Shen Youlin.

Yan Xingnan understood and coaxed Shen Youlin to stay put in his arms.

Yan Xingnan cleared his throat, “Miss Shen...”

“No need to be so formal. Just call me Youfei.”

“Miss Youfei, the maximum reward we give to good citizen crime stoppers is 50,000 yuan. Our boss said we should claim as much as possible... for the car repairs...”

No wonder they sent the most handsome guy to negotiate with Shen Youfei!

Yan Xingnan felt rather embarrassed himself. After all, the girl had just helped them big time, yet here he was to talk money.

Shen Youfei beamed brighter than the sun, “Then if you want to thank me, take me out for a meal! Don’t worry about the car repairs!”

The brat Shen Youlin started sabotaging her, “My Elder Sister is lying. Her cars are never repaired. They get replaced directly! She said cars that have been repaired are like men who have cheated. Can’t have them.”

Shen Youlin laughed out loud recalling his silly past self. “After I said that, both their faces turned red. But they still went out for that meal. It was like their first date. To spend more time with him, my Elder Sister deliberately left her wallet at the restaurant for Yan Xingnan to help her find it.”

Yu Shu asked, “How did you know? Were you there?”

“They wouldn’t have brought me on their date! Yan Xingnan told me later. He saw my Elder Sister drop her wallet but didn’t expose her.”

“What happened after?”

“After... The wallet was found. My Elder Sister was very ‘grateful’ to Yan Xingnan and gave him a banner.”

The banner bore eight big characters: So handsome, cases solved so fast.

At that time, Yan Xingnan didn’t express feelings for Shen Youfei. His attitude was aloof and polite. But Shen Youfei, raised in luxury and elite education since childhood, was confident and flashy. She firmly believed that whoever she liked would like her back.

So she directly delivered the banner to the police station. She had just exchanged a couple of words with Yan Xingnan when he was called away for an emergency mission with his colleagues.

Shen Youfei didn’t lose heart. She went on to find Yan Xingnan’s boss and told him to pay more attention to his subordinate’s personal issues, like taking her, such a fair-skinned beauty, as his grass widow.

Yan Xingnan’s boss instantly understood. He promised to do his best to matchmake Shen Youfei and Yan Xingnan.

That was also when Shen Youfei met Jiang Han, a poor little orphan raised in the pantry of the police station canteen.
