When Shen Xingwan woke up from the nightmare, sweating profusely, the sky was slightly bright.
Banxia heard the noise and immediately came in to light the lamp.
"It's still early, why is the lady awake?"
Shen Xingwan said a little tiredly, "I didn't sleep well, I want to wash my face."
Banxia went out and asked the maid on night duty to fetch hot water.
Shen Xingwan was leaning on the bed and thinking deeply. She had never been a bed person and had a happy-go-lucky personality.
Ever since I moved in here, I started having nightmares every night, sweating, and getting more and more tired as I slept...nothing was right no matter what I thought.
Soon Banxia led the maids in to help Shen Xingwan wash up. Shen Xingwan looked at his haggard face in the mirror, his eyes darkening.
"Everyone else, go down and have a rest. Banxia will open the window." Shen Xingwan ordered without feeling sleepy.
Everyone else retreated, Banxia made her a cup of hot honey water, "Miss, drink something to soothe your nerves."
Shen Xingwan took a sip and whispered, "Let Dongqing and Chanyi come in as soon as possible."
According to Miss Shen's configuration, there should be four personal first-class maids beside her.
Pinellia ternata counts as one, and Qinghong, chosen by Grandma Zhou herself, counts as one, leaving two empty.
Mrs. Shen Si, who was mainly in charge of the affairs of the government, asked her thoughtfully if she wanted to make up for it.
Shen Xingwan declined. Of course, such an important position should be reserved for close friends.
Although she has become a bit more experienced in these years, it does not mean that she has really done nothing. At least she has not left behind her habit of cultivating her own team when she was the president in modern times, and she still has a few useful people under her.
Dongqing is good at martial arts, and Chanyi is good at medicine. In recent years, she has spent a lot of money to train them.
Banxia asked nervously, "What went wrong?"
Otherwise, Shen Xingwan would not be in a hurry to let people in. The two of them had other arrangements.
Shen Xingwan tapped the table with his fingertips, "It's hard to say. We'll find out when Dongqing comes."
"Okay, dress up for me and don't show any abnormality on your face." Shen Xingwan said decisively. The situation is unknown now and cannot be alerted.
After breakfast, Shen Xingwan went out with Xie Zhuohua in high spirits, showing no sign of being out of energy at all.
As the carriage moved forward, Xie Zhuohua was quite talkative, and the two of them spent time chatting and playing chess in the carriage.
When we arrived at Baijuan Academy, the time was just right, it was the time for the students to go down the mountain during the holidays.
Xie Zhuohua was an informal person, standing under the tree openly without a veil, waiting for Shen Mochen to come down the mountain.
Of course Shen Xingwan didn't wear it anymore. The two of them stood there, with people looking over from time to time.
It happened that one of them was magnanimous and the other was calm and composed, and they were surrounded by a group of maids and women. They looked like they were from extraordinary backgrounds.
Most students just looked at it curiously and then politely looked away.
Shen Xingwan looked at the endless steps and lamented again that studying in ancient times was impossible without some physical strength.
"There are so many people, it's dazzling to see." Shen Xingwan complained while looking at it with enthusiasm. There were so many young students, most of whom were wearing green shirts customized by the college, which was very eye-catching.
Xie Zhuohua said meaningfully, "It doesn't matter, no matter how many people there are, you will definitely be able to see Shen Mochen as soon as he appears."
So far, she has never seen anyone who can "pretend" better than him.
"Yeah…"
Shen Xingwan squinted his eyes and saw Shen Yu walking down the steps step by step.
She actually met him, Shen Xingwan curled his lips.
"Hey, you can't tell which girl is under the tree opposite. It's such a grand display."
"She's so good-looking..."
"Can it not be beautiful? She is a girl from the famous Xie family."
The young students around him were whispering, and Shen Yu subconsciously raised his eyes and looked over, recognizing Shen Xingwan at a glance.
Shen Yu stopped, why is she here?
Are you waiting for him?
Shen Yu hesitated for a while. Although it was unpleasant in the end, he couldn't turn a blind eye when they met. In his heart, he still regarded Shen Xingwan as his sister.
Just at this time, Shen Xingwan also looked in his direction.
Shen Xingwan's eyes flashed with surprise. Among the students wearing green shirts, a man dressed in white with a cold and distant temperament came down the steps as he walked.
Indeed, as Xie Zhuohua said, you can see the truth at a glance.
Shen Xingwan even thought of the overused phrase in costume dramas - "Strangers are like jade, and young masters are like no other."
Shen Xingwan's eyes were shining as he carefully admired Shen Mochen's outstanding demeanor. He didn't even notice Shen Yu walking towards him with a troubled look on his face.
Shen Mochen obviously saw them too and walked towards them faster.
Shen Yu stopped a few steps away from Shen Xingwan, "Sister, why are you here?"
Shen Xingwan looked at him in surprise and asked in his mind, why did he come here?
"Why are you here waiting for me?" Shen Yu asked thoughtfully.
As soon as he finished speaking, a wisp of white clothes floated past him and walked straight to Shen Xingwan. He looked down at her and chuckled, "Sister?"
She was too direct and called her sister as soon as she came up.
Shen Xingwan glanced at Shen Yu and shouted back with a sweet smile, "Brother!"
Sure enough, Shen Yu's face turned a little pale.
Shen Xingwan curled up his lips, this is only fair, Shen Yu can prefer Su Jingyi, and she can also have a new brother.
"Hey, are you calling your brother and sister now?" Xie Zhuohua joked at the side.
Shen Xingwan said to Shen Yu with evil intentions, "You may have misunderstood. I'm not here to wait for you."
"I'm here to wait for my brother."
Shen Xingwan said, grabbing Shen Mochen's sleeve and introducing the two to each other.
"This is my brother Shen Mochen."
"This is my former brother, Shen Yu."
Shen Yu's eyes were a little hurt, what about the brother before, but now?
Before he could think about it, Shen Mochen took the initiative and said, "I didn't expect that we are in the same college. It's such a fate."
Shen Yu responded with a stiff smile and said nothing.
"I heard that Mr. Shen is the leader of the case. He is really a talented young man." Shen Mochen praised.
Shen Yu felt even more bitter in his heart, "No one can compare to Senior Brother."
It is generally accepted that if his mother had not passed away and Shen Mochen had observed his filial piety for his mother, he would have won three prizes in a row and become the youngest number one scholar.
Shen Yu has always been somewhat arrogant about his knowledge, but when it comes to Shen Mochen, he really doesn't dare to be so proud.
This is a person who truly became famous at a young age and is a legend in Bai Jue Academy.
He likes to make her generous so much and prefers Su Jingyi.
Now it's the other way around, he has to be generous himself and don't feel uncomfortable!
"Sister, please come and pick me up in person today. If you want to play or eat anything today, just ask." Shen Mochen said calmly.
When the little fox met him for the first time, he treated him as a tool.
However, with multiple sisters like this, the days ahead should be interesting.
"Okay, brother can't go back on his word."
Shen Xingwan climbed up the pole without any intention at all, took Shen Mochen's hand, and the two walked forward talking and laughing without even looking at Shen Yu.
Xie Zhuohua shook her head, she knew that the two people's auras could match each other.
Shen Yu stood there, watching them leave surrounded by maids and wives, and clenched his fists.
