Chapter 533: Chapter 532 Chen Siyan’s Concerns (3/3)
New City Mansion.
Sixteenth floor.
Yang Chen looked at the room full of young men and women, along with flickering colored lights and dancers weaving back and forth, all exuding an air of youth and hormones.
He couldn’t be more familiar with such scenes, but at this moment, he was uninterested.
To be precise, he didn’t want to come at all.
Initially, he didn’t want to come, but at the request of Ye Kai, and because Chen Siyan wanted to come, she had never attended such a party and wanted to see it for herself after all.
After all, she was still a young girl, curious about everything.
Because of the previous lack of care for Chen Siyan and the harsh conditions they endured, Chen Siyan missed out on many experiences that girls her age had, leaving Yang Chen feeling quite guilty.
So, after thinking it over, Yang Chen decided to agree to Ye Kai’s request.
Now, Yang Chen sat in the corner, watching the people coming and going in the dance floor, with no feelings in his heart.
Ye Kai wanted to invite Chen Siyan to dance, but Chen Siyan looked at Yang Chen.
"Brother..." Chen Siyan looked at Yang Chen longingly.
Yang Chen knew that the little girl wanted to dance with him.
Yang Chen stood up with a smile and said to Chen Siyan, "Can you dance?"
"You teach me!" Chen Siyan replied.
Yang Chen smiled, extended his hand, and said gentlemanly, "Beautiful lady, may I have the pleasure of dancing with you?"
Chen Siyan was overjoyed, her eyes curved like crescents, and she giggled, "Of course!"
Saying that, she placed her hand on Yang Chen’s and followed him to the dance floor.
Wei Xueqing watched this scene, feeling a burst of envy.
She really wished she could be the one dancing with Yang Chen.
Ye Kai looked at Wei Xueqing and asked, "Do you want to dance?"
Wei Xueqing shook her head, "No, thank you. I’d like to have a drink first."
"Okay, if you need anything, just let me know. I’m going to meet a few friends," Ye Kai said.
Wei Xueqing nodded, her attention completely on Chen Siyan and Yang Chen.
The edge of the dance floor.
The people inside were all jumping around wildly, it wouldn’t be suitable for the two of them to join in.
After all, Chen Siyan couldn’t dance, so Yang Chen had to teach her first.
Yang Chen held Chen Siyan’s slender waist, one hand holding her hand, and smiled, "Just follow my steps, it’s easy to learn."
Chen Siyan felt a bit nervous, nodding with a flushed face.
Yang Chen was good at keeping the beat, and under his guidance, Chen Siyan quickly mastered the skills.
After learning it, Chen Siyan was very happy, even accelerating her pace, shaking along with the music.
Yang Chen smiled and said, "You’re doing great, you have a lot of talent!"
"Really!" Chen Siyan twisted her waist as she laughed.
Yang Chen realized that the little girl from before had grown into a big girl, wearing a sea blue dress, looking very pretty. There were even people around glancing at her constantly, and the little girl’s figure had started to develop quite nicely compared to her peers.
Plus, with her delicate face and short hair, she exuded a youthful and vibrant charm that was really endearing.
Chen Siyan noticed Yang Chen watching her and couldn’t help but lift her head to meet his gaze.
Yang Chen gave Chen Siyan a gentle smile.
Chen Siyan’s steps slowed down, and she softly asked, "Brother... where did my sister-in-law go?"
Yang Chen’s expression stiffened, hesitated for a moment, and said in a deep voice, "She... went to a very far place."
"When will she be back?" Chen Siyan asked.
Yang Chen shook his head, "I don’t know, if I don’t go find her, she probably won’t come back."
"Why did those people want to capture my sister-in-law?"
Yang Chen shook his head.
"Then... can’t you not go look for her?" Chen Siyan asked weakly.
Yang Chen frowned, staring at Chen Siyan, and asked, "Why are you asking this?"
He didn’t expect Chen Siyan to say that, after all, that was her sister-in-law!
Chen Siyan lowered her head and said, "I know those people are very powerful, you, even as capable as you are, couldn’t defeat them and just watched them take my sister-in-law away. You’re definitely no match for them. If you go look for my sister-in-law again, you’ll surely get hurt. And... if you go to their place to find my sister-in-law, it will definitely..."
Chen Siyan didn’t finish her sentence, but Yang Chen understood what she meant.
Hearing this, Yang Chen was momentarily stunned, staring at Chen Siyan’s short hair, his expression slightly moved.
After thinking about it, Yang Chen said, "Yanyan, do you think I’m a heartless and ungrateful person?"
Chen Siyan shook her head.
"I fell for your sister-in-law at first sight, and we’ve been through a lot of hardships together, which didn’t tear us apart, proving that our love is unbreakable! And think about how much your sister-in-law has helped us? Even when we were poor and had so many troubles, did your sister-in-law ever give up on us?"
"No..."
"So!" Yang Chen looked at Chen Siyan and said, "Are you asking me to give up on your sister-in-law?"
"It’s not like that!" Chen Siyan shook her head and said, "I’m not asking you to give up on my sister-in-law, I’m asking you to protect your own safety. I can’t lose you, the director can’t lose you, I’m so afraid that one day you’ll suddenly be gone, and I’ll have no family left!"
Saying that, Chen Siyan threw herself into Yang Chen’s embrace and began to cry.
Yang Chen felt a pang in his heart and hugged Chen Siyan tighter.
The little girl was too insecure.
The director was getting older and might need the little girl to take care of her in the future. Right now, the only person the little girl could rely on was him.
Thinking of this, Yang Chen couldn’t help but sigh, gently caressing Chen Siyan’s head and said, "There, there! Don’t worry, I promise you, everything will be alright, okay?"
Chen Siyan shook her head repeatedly in Yang Chen’s arms.
"Silly girl!" Yang Chen nudged Chen Siyan away from himself, smiled, and said, "Did you forget? I still have to take you to see the sea of flowers, I still owe your sister-in-law a wedding, I still owe the director a good kindergarten, and I still need to provide for Elder Zhuo. How could I not be around for that? Rest assured, I’ll be true to my word, just like when we were kids, okay?"
Chen Siyan hesitated for a moment, then slowly nodded and extended her pinky finger, saying, "Then pinky swear!"
Looking at Chen Siyan’s fair little finger, Yang Chen couldn’t help but smile, extending his pinky to hook with Chen Siyan’s little finger, and said, "Pinky swear!"
"Pinky swear, hang them high, a hundred years without change!" Chen Siyan swayed as she said.
Yang Chen smiled slightly, dotingly looking at Chen Siyan, "Pinky swear, hang them high, a hundred years without change!"
...
Wei Xueqing watched their interaction, staring dazedly.
As if Wei Xueqing had already imagined herself as Chen Siyan, intimately being with Yang Chen...
...
On a high platform.
Zhu Hai sat together with Ye Kai.
Zhu Hai’s gaze remained fixed on Yang Chen and Chen Siyan.
Seeing their interaction, Zhu Hai asked, "Is that girl his sister?"
"Yes, but they’re not biological siblings, they both grew up in the same orphanage, their relationship is very close. This girl was hospitalized with leukemia before, it was Yang Chen who paid for it, and later when she was kidnapped, it was Yang Chen who risked everything to save her. They have a deep bond." Ye Kai had investigated Yang Chen’s background thoroughly, speaking fluently.
Zhu Hai’s eyes flickered with a sharp glint, and he slowly nodded.
