192 Survival
Shen Yin did not believe him. She struggled to escape his embrace. âDo you think Iâll believe you? If you didnât give her your phone, how could she have obtained my phone number?â
âSheâs really my sister.â Lian Jing knocked on the car window helplessly.
Lian Meng, who had been scrutinizing Shen Nian outside the car, immediately put on a serious look. She opened the car door and asked, âBrother, whatâs the matter?â
Lian Jing rubbed his furrowed brows and sighed. âYou explain.â
Lian Meng quickly bowed and apologized. âIâm sorry, Sister-in-law. I called you as a prank and caused a misunderstanding between you and my brother. Please forgive me.â
Shen Yin remembered her voice. This woman was really his sister. Only then did she realize that it had been a huge misunderstanding and she had even deleted Lian Jingâs contact information.
She smiled awkwardly. âI understand. Itâs alright. You donât have to apologize.â
âSister-in-law.â Lian Meng held her hand happily. âDoes that mean youâve forgiven me?â
âYeah.â
With Shen Yinâs agreement, Lian Meng patted her brotherâs shoulder proudly. âSister-in-law is more magnanimous than you. This time, you canât chase me overseas again, right?â
Lian Jing slammed the car door shut, blocking out her voice. He turned to look at Shen Yin with a smile. âDo you admit that youâre in the wrong? Hurry up and add my number back.â
Shen Yin deliberately moved closer to Lian Jing and narrowed her eyes in a fake smile. Under Lian Jingâs increasingly expectant gaze, she raised her eyebrows smugly. âNo.â
âHow dare you!â Lian Jing grabbed her chin and forced this evil woman to look straight at him. âI have a way to make you add my contact information.â
They got into the car and returned to the Lian residence. Li Zi had been busy all night. Seeing that Shen Yin and Shen Nian were, she felt relieved and went home to rest.
When they reached the Lian residence, Lian Meng wanted to see Grandpa Lian first. However, Lian Jing raised his hand to stop her. âItâs so late, Grandpa will be asleep. You can see him tomorrow.â
Lian Meng had no choice but to give up. She winked mischievously at Shen Yin. âSister-in-law, this is our first meeting. I should give you a big gift, but my brother hasnât been nice to me lately. He has ordered me around so much that Iâm giddy. Iâll make it up to you next time, okay?â
âYou donât have to give me a gift.â Shen Yin had a good impression of Lian Meng. She was a very cheerful, lively and adorable girl.
âLet her give you something.â Lian Jing decided mercilessly, naturally siding with his wife.
Lian Meng glared at him and exposed him mercilessly. âYou didnât bring Sister-in-law a gift either.â
âWho says I didnât?â Lian Jing frowned and glanced at Shen Nian. Then, he held Shen Yinâs hand and walked back to the room.
Shen Yin could finally take a good look at her son. As soon as she entered the house, she squatted down and checked him over. She was relieved to see that he was not injured.
Shen Nian eyes were filled with guilty tears. âMom, Iâm sorry. I almost implicated you and Dad.â
âDarling, you didnât implicate us. Iâm the one who has implicated you.â Shen Yinâs heart ached as she hugged her son tightly. No matter how strong and mature he was, he was still a six-year-old child.
When Shen Yin held Shen Nian in her arms, he could not longer hold back his tears, which created a damp spot on her shoulder.
She was filled with regret. If she had not been careless, she would not have been kidnapped and Shen Nian would not be forced to make such a difficult decision.
Lian Jing patted Shen Nianâs head, squatted down, and smiled encouragingly. âNian Nian did very well. You have to protect Mom in the future too, understand?â
Shen Nian nodded seriously but refused to let go of Shen Yin.
Lian Jing was not the only one who felt the joy of regaining something he had lost. The relief of surviving a calamity made Shen Yin reluctant to let go of Shen Nian.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Lian Jing helplessly looked at the mother and son who could not bear to be parted. In the end, he suppressed his desire to monopolize Shen Yin. However, he was very rough when he grabbed Shen Nianâs collar. âHurry up and take a shower. Donât think that youâll be excused from school tomorrow.â
Shen Yin was amused by the awkward father and son. She stroked Shen Nianâs head and said, âBe good and go quickly. Weâll sleep together tonight.â
After saying that, Shen Yin suddenly realized that Lian Jing was looking at her with a burning gaze and smiling.
The corners of her mouth twitched awkwardly. âIâm sleeping, not doing anything else. Donât over-think it!â
Iâm not over-thinking.â Lian Jing lifted her hair and wrapped it around his fingers. His eyes were filled with a tangle of emotions as he looked at her. âWho is over-thinking, huh?â
He hugged Shen Yinâs slender waist and leaned forward to bite her ear. âDid you delete my contact information because you were jealous? Did you think I didnât want you anymore?â
Shen Yin lowered her eyes and thought of the materials she had prepared to fight for custody. She sighed. âLian Jing, if you really fall in love with someone else one day, you must tell me. Donât lie to me. Iâll leave quietly and not disturb youâ¦â
âYou!â Before Shen Yin could finish speaking, Lian Jing bent down and picked her up, heading straight for the bathroom in his room.
âWhat are you doing?â Shen Yin struggled and kicked.
Lian Jing grunted after being kicked. However, he grabbed her hand and used it to caress himself. He looked straight at her. âLook carefully. I only react to you.â
