Chapter 1118: Shen Siyu’s Arrival (3)

It was still that gentle face that she still remembered fondly, and that smile he had was like a breeze that blew all her problems away.

“Brother Siyu!” Shen Yanxiao looked at Shen Siyu whom she had not seen for a long time and smiled from the bottom of her heart.

“You’ve grown taller.” Shen Siyu reached out his hand with a smile and patted Shen Yanxiao’s head. It had been half a year since they parted ways in Saint Laurent Academy.

Even though the little girl in front of him had yet to reach adulthood, she was already showing the delicate appearance of a young lady. However, beneath her pretty appearance, there was also a decisiveness and wisdom that did not belong to her age.

“I can’t stay as a kid for too long,” Shen Yanxiao said with a smile. Even though she knew that Shen Siyu was not related to her by blood, she still felt that this man in front of her was her big brother. The bond they had between them was as if they were real siblings.

“No matter how old you are, you’re still a kid to me.”

The siblings stood at the door and chatted. Lan Fengli stood behind Shen Yanxiao and noticed the intimacy between Shen Siyu and Shen Yanxiao. There was a trace of loneliness in his eyes.

Shen Siyu noticed Lan Fengli. His gentle gaze swept across him and he smiled. “This is your younger brother?”

Shen Yanxiao raised her eyebrows and stepped to the side. She pulled the lonely Lan Fengli into her arms and said proudly, “Yes! He is the best younger brother I could’ve ever hoped for.”

Lan Fengli’s body trembled. With a flushed face, his heart beat wildly with Shen Yanxiao’s words.

Shen Siyu chuckled and said nothing else.

“It looks like you two are having a good time chatting without me. Have you forgotten about this old man?” In the study, Shen Feng’s voice that pretended to be stern sounded.

Shen Yanxiao and Shen Siyu looked at each other and stuck out their tongues before they entered the study together.

Shen Feng looked at Shen Yanxiao, whom he had not seen for more than half a month, and his aged eyes swiftly sized her up from top to bottom.

“You’ve lost weight! Did you not eat well in Twilight City?” Shen Feng looked at Shen Yanxiao with heartache. He was proud of her achievements as the Young Family Head of the Vermilion Bird Family, but as a grandfather, he felt heartache for Shen Yanxiao’s continuous hard work.

She was only 14 years old, but she was acting like an old woman worrying about the country and her people all day long. How was she going to have a good future?

Children of her age were still around their parents, but Shen Yanxiao had long abandoned her immaturity as a young child and entered the various struggles of adults within the Brilliance Continent.

Every time he thought of that, Shen Feng felt heartache.

“Grandfather, I’m fine. How am I skinny? This is called slim. I think I look quite pretty now.” Shen Yanxiao did not want Shen Feng to worry about her. She tried to alleviate his heavy mood by making jokes.

Shen Feng’s face tensed up. “Aishi, you’re acting like a girl who loves her beauty. Don’t use your vanity to fool your grandfather. Tell your Fifth Uncle to prepare some delicious supplements for you later.” His child was in pain, and his son and daughter-in-law had passed away early. As a grandfather, he could not let his granddaughter suffer too much.

“I will listen to Grandfather’s arrangements.” No matter how powerful Shen Yanxiao was outside, she still wanted to experience the warmth of family when she was with Shen Feng.

“Brother Siyu came here half a month ago. I believe you must have heard him criticizing me a lot,” Shen Yanxiao playfully said.

Shen Siyu chuckled and said, “Are you sure? I just heard a lot of good words.”

Shen Feng’s expression also relaxed. He looked at Shen Yanxiao and said, “Your Brother Siyu came here to bring your Third Uncle’s whereabouts.”
