The Mind-Read Heiress: From Impostor to Family Favorite-Chapter 618 - 350

"Ah?" Wenyan quickly surveyed the surroundings and became even more puzzled. "But why bring me to your workplace?"

Shen Jingcheng still smiled faintly, "Let’s talk in my office."

"Ah??" Wenyan’s face filled with question marks. "Is your office a place where just anyone can enter freely?"

"It’s not some strictly confidential place. There’s no reason you can’t enter. Come, this way."

Wenyan forced a smile.

In her heart, curiosity abounded: [It’s really strange. Why does he want to bring me to his workplace?]

[Are we that close already?]

[This is too mysterious. What on earth is he up to?]

[Oh well, I’m here now; he surely won’t sell me out.]

Soon, Wenyan’s inner turmoil calmed down.

Unable to hear her inner thoughts, Shen Jingcheng couldn’t help but glance at her.

She adapts quite quickly. No wonder she gets along so well with her family. She’s really thriving.

"This way to the elevator."

"Oh."

Wenyan surveyed her surroundings, keeping pace with Shen Jingcheng.

"Do offices like yours need to work overtime too? The lights are on everywhere."

"Yes, there were times when I didn’t go home for days during busy periods, but that was years ago. Later, I was almost always traveling."

"I know. Mom used to always talk about it, saying seeing her own son was harder than ascending to the heavens. But luckily, you haven’t been traveling far these last two years."

"Yes, but you’re often not home. During the days I’ve been home, I often heard mom talking about you. What about you? Do you miss home when you’re away?"

"Of course, I do."

"Really?"

Shen Jingcheng had just asked this question when the elevator door opened.

With a ’ding’, Wenyan turned her head in surprise toward the man beside her.

"Big brother, why would you ask that? Isn’t it obvious?"

The key point was that he asked it so seriously.

Shen Jingcheng still wore that smiling expression: "Here we are, come with me."

"Oh." Wenyan wasn’t giggling anymore; she felt that today’s Shen Jingcheng was somewhat off.

As they got on the elevator, Wenyan noticed it required a card to enter.

Now, entering Shen Jingcheng’s office required a fingerprint unlock.

He had claimed it wasn’t a high-security area, which left Wenyan puzzled about what he really meant.

Once inside Shen Jingcheng’s office, Wenyan no longer had the mind to look around.

"Big brother, can we talk now?"

"Sit down. Would you like something to drink? I only have mineral water and soda water here."

"I’m not drinking." Wenyan took a seat and pointed to the opposite chair. "You sit too, big brother. I want to get to the point quickly."

"Just sit for a bit. I’ll be right there," Shen Jingcheng said and then went over to his desk.

Wenyan saw him use a key to open a drawer and take out a file folder.

Wenyan had a premonition; she felt that the folder was probably prepared for her.

However, when Shen Jingcheng walked back to her, he didn’t hand her the folder.

Instead, he made a seemingly inconsequential statement.

"Wenyan, I don’t think I’ve ever talked to you about my work, have I?"

Wenyan shook her head: "No, it’s funny that you mention it. The times you’ve been working here, I was incredibly busy and barely had any time and opportunity to converse with you deeply. Before that, I had plenty of time."

"Yes. Oh, by the way, I have something very strange, almost unbelievable to tell you."

"Unbelievable? What is it?"

[Why do I feel that he himself is more unbelievable... What on earth is he up to?]

At this point, Shen Jingcheng finally cleared the smile from his face.

Gazing at Wenyan with a slight frown, he said sternly, "It’s strange but true, I can hear your inner thoughts."
