On the birthday party, Chen Yan arrived at Fengzhu Building on time at 6 o'clock. The house was full of guests and guests were full of guests. All of them were Shen Jianan's business partners and the world's friendship and nobles.

She took Chen Jinchu with her. At first, she didn't see Shen Jianan, so she pulled him around.

"Hey, Yanyan! You are here...ahhhhh, Chen Jinchu! I actually saw the living Chen Jinchu!"

Chen Yan didn't need to look at it to know that it was Zhou Ke'er. She smiled and shook her head and turned around, and saw her and Mu Shaowen standing not far away.

Mu Shaowen stood there without moving, his expression faintly, as if he was looking at them.

Zhou Ke'er went up to hug her, then stretched out her hand to Chen Jinchu: "Hello! I am Yanyan's friend Zhou Ke'er, we have seen it in the video before!"

Chen Jinchu smiled slightly and stretched out his hand: "I know you are my fan."

"Yes, yes! I've seen all your works..."

The three of them started chatting for a while, and then Zhou Ke'er mysteriously approached Chen Jinchu and said, "No matter how busy you work, don't forget that there are still people waiting at home. Yanyan was almost in love with her some time ago. She cried to us every day and told us about her longing for you... It can be said that you didn't see the water of the Yellow River coming from the sky, flowing to the sea and never returning..."

Chen Yan: "Zhou Keer!!!"

Chen Jinchu raised his eyebrows, lowered his eyes and said in Shen Yan's ear: "Do you think of me so?"

His tone was ambiguous, and he breathed a warm breath, which made her tremble from her ear bones and spread straight to her spine.

"Where, where is there..." Chen Yan's hand was supported on Shen Jinchu's chest, and he pushed for a little while, but a hint of blush appeared on his face.

Zhou Keer looked lemony: "Tsk, tsk."

She smiled and said, "I'd better leave quickly, don't let you slaughter me, a single dog here!"

Single dog??

Chen Yan noticed that Mu Shaowen's face became slightly darker, but he looked calm and said nothing.

She felt a little disgusted - she did something shameful behind her back, but was very concerned about these false statements on the surface, which was a bit too greedy.

"Chongyan." As if she heard what she was thinking, Mu Shaowen suddenly looked at her.

Zhou Ke'er frowned and turned around with a smile.

Mu Shaowen said: "I want to talk to you alone."

Chen Yan had already told Zhou Keer about Ruan Xinyi's last time when she screamed at night. She patted the other party's hand and whispered: "It's okay, I'll come when I go."

Then he said to Chen Jinchu: "Achu, you are waiting for me here."

Following Mu Shaowen to a remote corner, Chen Yan asked, "Brother Shaowen, what's wrong?"

Mu Shaowen was silent for a moment and said, "I know you saw it that day."

Chen Yan: "Which day? What's going on?"

"You should have heard everything I said to Ruan Xinyi on the day of Screaming Night."

She silenced for a second, chuckled and said, "Yes, I saw it." She paused and said, "What? I'm afraid I'll tell Keer?"

Mu Shaowen stared at her for a while, "Ruan Xinyi and I have been broken. I will not look for her again."

Chen Yan was stunned for a moment and said strangely: "It seems that he shouldn't have said this to me."

His expression was stained with a hint of unnaturalness: "Ke'er listens to you."

Chen Yan's eyes showed a little clarity, she shook her head and smiled, "Why should I help you when you hurt her heart like that before?"

Mu Shaowen's lips were straightened, and his eyebrows and eyes were hidden in the shadows. After a moment, he turned around and strode away.

When he returned to his original place, Chen Jinchu was still there, but Zhou Ke'er was gone.

Chen Yan whispered to the man: "You probably guessed it too. Ke'er is Mr. Mu's wife. I told you before that he has something to do with a little star. I just wanted me to help him plead with Ke'er."

Chen Jinchu lowered his eyes: "Then will you help him?"

She shook her head and said bluntly: "No. I hate betrayal the most."

Chen Jinchu smiled slightly and held her hand: "Let's go."

At half past six, the banquet began and Shen Jianan came on stage to deliver a speech.

Chen Yan found that it had been several months since the last time he saw him.

He seemed to have some changes, but he didn't say much.

There were laughter and joy in the hall, delicious wine was served, and everyone started talking freely.

Shen Jianan turned around at each table, touched each other's glasses and toasted wine, looked somewhere, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

He put his finger on Shen Yan's shoulder: "You guys, come with me."

In the empty reception room, three people stood. Shen Jianan sat in the middle, Chen Yan and Shen Jinchu were on the side.

The atmosphere seemed a little calm, Chen Yan took the lead and said, "I'll introduce it, this is my boyfriend."

Shen Jianan looked at Chen Jinchu and nodded lightly: "I know."

Chen Jinchu said politely: "Hello uncle."

Shen Jianan looked at him and nodded: "I'll talk about you later." Then he turned to the other side: "I thought you were not here."

Chen Yan curled his lips and lowered his head and said, "Isn't this? Is the fiftieth birthday more important? Happy birthday."

Shen Jianan ignored her hesitation, "Jinchu, please avoid it first, Xiaoyan and I will say a few words alone."

After the reception room was only two of them, Shen Jianan waved to Chen Yan, and his tone became softer: "Xiaoyan, sit closer."

“I think it’s good to sit here.”

He seemed to be indifferent to the sharp little thorn in her words, and just said, "Dad knows that you have been resentful in your heart for so many years."

Chen Yan grabbed one of the trouser sewers with his fingers and said nothing.

"I used to be resentment because my father didn't let you enter the entertainment industry. I was resentment in the middle because I learned that I had broken up you and your college boyfriend. I later had resentment because I learned about the kidnapping that year. Is it right?"

Chen Yan looked up, and his heart was really bitter because of his words.

Thousands of emotions lingered in his heart. He was right and he was exactly what he thought, but the first thing he thought of was that he hadn't spoken to her slowly for a long time.

It has been a long time since they sat down and chatted in a heart-to-heart manner like normal father and daughter.

"Yes." Chen Yan smiled without any warmth: "But not all."

Shen Jianan seemed to be stunned for a moment, and then he heard her say, "I naturally care about those things, but what I care about the most is..."

Chen Yan paused, "You probably don't care much about me."

"When my mother was there, you often quarrels. When she was gone, you rarely care about me, or even ignore me. I feel very lonely."

Shen Jianan fell into silence, his eyes flashed a little. When Chen Yan looked over, he felt as if he had seen something like guilt.

Maybe he misread it, how could he feel indebted?

She laughed at herself.

But the next second, Shen Jianan said in an extremely solemn tone: "Xiaoyan, dad wants to apologize to you."

"What?" She opened her mouth in disbelief, thinking she had heard it wrong.

He was always cold and hard, even a little unkind, and would take the initiative to bow his head to admit his mistake?

Shen Jianan repeated: "Dad said, Dad is wrong, I'm sorry."

"When I was a kid, quarreling with your mother, which left a bad impression on you, and my father regretted it very much."

"I didn't tell you what happened back then, because I was afraid that you would think too much, but don't worry, Dad has already handled your uncle's affairs."

"It's not that Dad doesn't care about you, but sometimes he's too busy with work and really ignores you. Dad doesn't know how to express himself... After your mother left, Dad feels increasingly distant from you, but he doesn't know what to do."

His expression was still so faint, but there were many emotions hidden in his eyes: "Dad always thinks too much, afraid that you will be deceived when you are young, afraid that you will be simple and unable to adapt to the complex entertainment industry, so he gave you many restrictions alone and did not consider your feelings. I'm sorry."

He quickly frowned and opened his eyes wide: "Dad is also very lonely."

Chen Yan blinked, turned his head to wipe his tears, and said with a firm mouth: "I didn't want to cry."

Shen Jianan smiled and waved to her again: "Can you sit here this time?"

"I haven't said I'm forgiven you yet."

"Okay. Dad always needs to take some time to prove it."

The smoke rustled for a while, and he reluctantly agreed to his proposal, and then he tactfully reminded: "My boyfriend is still waiting outside."

"By the way." Shen Jianan smiled slightly: "You go out and let him come in and sit down."

She widened her eyes: "What are you going to do?"

He raised his eyebrows lightly and sighed, "Don't worry, it's enough for the evil one to do it once. This time I'm not going to break up you."

Before Chen Jinchu entered the door, he told Chen Yan to walk around nearby and not to run around.

He pushed the door and said respectfully: "Uncle."

The conversation between men is much simpler and clearer. Shen Jianan didn't talk to him and said bluntly: "I have already understood the matter between you and Xiaoyan. I believe that when you checked me before, you probably knew what our family was like?"

He said casually, his eyes were filled with a smile, but there was a hint of pressure.

Chen Jinchu said neither humble nor arrogantly: "Yes, I do know. I'm really embarrassed, uncle, I checked this matter at that time to eliminate Xiaoyan's misunderstanding and make her feel better."
