Chapter 249 Undercurrent
The principal turned his head, the shock on his face flashing away before he could even stop. He smiled and said, "Boss Bian, you must be joking. How could a kid from here enter the film and television industry?"
"I also thought I was joking." Bian Yue curled her lips and said calmly, "I just asked casually, don't take it to heart, Principal."
Wang Dan'an's reaction was calm. He looked at Bian Yue, hiding the scrutiny in his eyes, and said with a smile: "Boss Bian, these are just ordinary kids. How can they have the qualifications to enter the entertainment industry?"
"That's right, I overthought it." Bian Yue followed Wang Dan'an's words and obeyed him.
When leaving the welfare home, Bian Yue looked at the children running around in the playground with complicated eyes.
Wang Dan'an walked to her side without her noticing, with a loving smile on his face, "Every time I look at these children, I think of many past events. When I was young, I also grew up like this. I was also an orphan, so I want to shelter them from the wind and rain."
Bian Yue listened to Wang Dan'an's heartfelt sigh and said calmly, "If President Wang can really give these children a way out, it would be a great favor."
Wang Dan'an's smile deepened, and wrinkles appeared at the corners of his eyes. He stared at Bian Yue, and the next moment, he slowly said: "Don't worry, Mr. Bian, since I have taken these children in, I will of course give them a good future. When doing things, I always like to start and end well."
Bian Yue retracted her gaze and looked at Wang Dan'an, and stretched out her hand towards him, "In this case, I am willing to cooperate with President Wang."
Wang Dan'an showed a slight surprise on his face, but soon he smiled sincerely, held Bian Yue's hand, and said, "Of course, it's a pleasure to work with you.
Bian Yue smiled and said calmly: "I plan to donate some money to this welfare organization. I will ask Anny to contact Mr. Wang's assistant."
Wang Dan'an was startled for a moment, but he still maintained his smile and said slowly, "On behalf of these children, I would like to thank Mr. Bian. It's getting late. Should I take Mr. Bian back first?"
Bian Yue's eyes fell on Wang Dan'an's probing face and smiled, "No need, I just told Jin Ci that I'm here, and he's already here to pick me up."
Wang Dan'an's eyes lit up, and he smiled and complimented, "Mr. Shen and Mr. Bian really have a close relationship, which is really enviable. If there is a chance, I wonder if I can have a meal with Mr. Shen?"
Bian Yue also smiled and said softly: "Of course, there is a long time to come, there are plenty of opportunities."
There seems to be harmony between the two, but in fact, there are undercurrents.
Shen Jinci arrived earlier than the agreed time. When Bian Yue got in the car, he opened the door himself.
Wang Dan'an stood aside, watching Shen Jinci's indifferent figure for a long time, and finally mustered up the courage to step forward and said, "Hello, Mr. Shen, I am Wang Dan'an, we met at the last banquet."
Shen Jinci closed the door on Bian Yue's side and saw Wang Dan'an's eager eyes. Even in this desolate and secluded place, his eyes were full of ambition.
"Boss Wang." Shen Jinci said in a dull voice, "What's the matter?"
"I just discussed cooperation with Mr. Bian, and he was very satisfied and has agreed. I wonder if Mr. Shen has any chance for us to have a simple meal together?" Wang Dan'an said with a smile: "After all, Mr. Bian and I are old friends besides business."
Shen Jinci was often seen trying to make friends, but he was always cold and ruthless, so these tricks were useless to him.
But at this moment, Shen Jinci glanced at Bian Yue in the car, who was sitting upright with her eyes lowered, waiting for him.
So Shen Jinci spoke in a slow tone: "I will ask Bian Yue for her opinion. If she has any plans, it will be fine."
"In that case, thank you, Mr. Shen." Wang Dan'an showed a happy look on his face. His goal was achieved, so he didn't bother to argue any further. "Mr. Shen, you should accompany Mr. Bian back soon. Mr. Bian has been thinking about you just now." Shen Jinci didn't say anything. He walked to the other side and bent down to go in.
When the car was driving on the highway, Bian Yue was already sitting in Shen Jinci's arms, playing with his tie, hooking it around his fingers, "What did Wang Dan'an say to you?"
"Ask me if I have time to have a simple meal with him." Shen Jinci looked at Bian Yue's lively and lovely face, couldn't help but pinched it gently, and said softly: "I'll listen to you."
Bian Yue couldn't help but smiled.
She sat up straight, letting go of her tie that had been ravaged, and spoke seriously, "Actually, the reason why I agreed to cooperate with Wang Dan'an is because I think there is something fishy about this orphanage, and I want to find out."
"Yueyue means that this welfare home has an inside story?"
Bian Yue nodded, the smile on her face faded, her expression became serious, she said solemnly: "I saw An Jiayi's photo in there, and before, I always felt that Wang Dan'an had something fishy going on with Ah Xi and Meng Qi."
"You want to check this out?"
"Yes, although these things have nothing to do with me, but since I have seen it, I can't pretend that I know nothing." Bian Yue said seriously: "If there is really something inside, I can help. I don't want to watch someone die without helping."
Shen Jinci touched Bian Yue's hair, with a faint smile in his eyes. Looking at the righteous look on the little girl's face, he did not say anything to discourage her. Instead, he said, "Then do it. Yueyue can do anything, but one thing, be careful."
"I know. I will definitely not let myself get hurt. After all, I also want to live a long life."
The sky gradually darkened without knowing when. Bian Yue hooked her arms around Shen Jinci's neck and said softly, "Shen Jinci, I always treat everyone equally. I want you to be safe, and I will ensure my own safety."
Shen Jinci did not answer. She looked at Bian Yue with serious eyes, as if a feather was brushing against her heart. He lowered his eyes, pinched Bian Yue's chin and kissed her.
Bian Yue was stunned at first, then she reacted, closed her eyes, and responded gently.
That night, at the Shen family manor.
Bian Yue was half asleep when she received a call from Bian Shu's attending physician, who said nervously, "Miss Bian, please come over right now. Your sister is a little emotionally unstable!"
Bian Yue felt weak all over and was completely awake as she held her phone in her hand. Just as she was about to get up and pick up the clothes on the ground, Shen Jinci got up before her and picked up the clothes.
"I'll be there right away, you hold it steady for me." Bian Yue looked at Shen Jinci's figure, spoke quickly, and hung up the phone.
Shen Jinci put his coat on Bian Yue, picked up the socks thrown aside, and half-knelt down to put them on her.
Bian Yue was extremely sorry and said guiltily: "I didn't mean to wake you up."
"It's too late. I'll accompany you." Shen Jinci paused, took the slippers, and placed them at Bian Yue's feet. "Let's go."
"You have to get up early tomorrow, so I can go by myself."
"How can I feel at ease if you go alone? How can I sleep?" Shen Jinci looked at Bian Yue calmly and repeated slowly, "Be good, I'll go with you."
