Chapter 273: Chen MO Holding Hands

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Chen MO noticed that Xia Wan suddenly started avoiding him. Before, they would communicate face-to-face, but now she always seemed to be evading him.

“Wanwan, what are you thinking about?” Chen MO asked.

Xia Wan collected her thoughts and politely smiled at him, “Nothing, just go on with the auction.”

Even though Xia Wan tried to hide her emotions and appear normal, Chen MO still sensed her subtle changes. So instead of talking about the auction, he asked, “Wanwan, did I say something wrong? Why do I feel like you’ve become distant from me?”

Chen Shui silently slowed down his pace, giving the two some privacy to talk.

For the first time, Xia Wan felt like a third wheel, so conspicuous.

She continued to smile, “No, I was just thinking about some past events, unrelated to you.”

Chen MO suddenly felt an emptiness in his heart.

He wanted to tell Xia Wan that from the moment he first saw her, he felt she was special. He had always kept his distance from girls, but for some reason, when he saw her, he had an instinctive desire to get closer to her. He also had something he wanted to confirm with Xia Wan.

“Wanwan, come with me. There’s something I want to talk to you about privately.” Chen MO took Xia Wan’s hand and led her toward a room.

Chen Shui was left dumbfounded behind them.

Did she see correctly? Did her brother just hold Xia Wan’s hand?

Chen Shui was excited and quickly sent a text message to Chen Shan.

[Dad! Brother made progress! He just held Xia Wan’s hand!!!]

Chen Shan was on his way to the auction and heard his phone ringing. He checked the message and was so excited that he almost stood up, but then he realized he was in a car and accidentally bumped his head on the roof.

The driver stopped the car in a hurry and anxiously asked, ‘Mr. Chen, are you okay?”

Chen Shan’s eyes were still glued to his phone, and he waved his hand, “I’m fine, I’m fine, just keep driving, but slower.” Then he immediately called Chen Shui.

Chen Shui answered quickly.

Curious, Chen Shan asked, “Tell me in detail. How did your brother take the initiative to hold Xia Wan’s hand? Did he buy her flowers or give her gifts?”

Chen Shui was confused, “Uh, no, he was originally talking to Xia Wan about the auction, then suddenly he held her hand and said he wanted to talk to her privately, leaving me behind.”

Chen Shan’s excitement faded instantly, and he looked disappointed and disgusted, “That’s it?”

Chen Shui nodded, “Yes!”

Chen Shan sarcastically commented, “If I were like your brother, I would never have been able to chase after your mother. Back then, there were so many men pursuing your mother.”

“Okay, enough of your past glories. I don’t want to hear about that. I’m quite satisfied with Xia Wan as my sister-in-law. Just tell me what I need to do to help my brother pursue Xia Wan.” Chen Shui interrupted Chen Shan and asked directly.

Chen Shan chuckled, “That’s easy. You help your brother pick a gift that girls like and have him buy movie tickets. In the dim lighting of the cinema, they’ll be close, and it’s easy for a romantic atmosphere to develop.”

Chen Shui nodded in satisfaction and praised, “Dad, you’re really good at pursuing women. You’re better than my brother!”

Chen Shan felt proud, “Of course, I’m your father.”

“Alright, enough talking. I’m going to play matchmaker for them.” After saying that, Chen Shui hung up the phone.

Chen Shan looked at the disconnected call screen, feeling somewhat helpless, but simultaneously, a smile crept onto his face.

His silly son had finally grown up.

On the other side, Chen MO brought Xia Wan to a room where he usually painted. He looked mysterious as he said, “Wanwan, actually, I’ve been having a dream these past few days.”

“A dream? What dream? Is it related to me?” Xia Wan asked, surprised.

Being suddenly pulled in like this, it was the first time she held Chen Mo’s hand. Her heart was pounding hard.

Chen MO nodded, “Yes, in the dream, you saved me many times. I realized I liked you but was too afraid to tell you. I was afraid I wouldn’t be able to protect you, so I could only observe you quietly from the shadows.

“Later, I wanted to confess my feelings to you, but then I lost consciousness. It seemed like I got injured, and everything was dark. Someone saved me, and that person was you. But someone else took credit for saving me, claiming it was her. I don’t remember much else, but the pain in the dream was very real. I

regretted and felt heartache.

“Wanwan, do you think this dream might be related to our past lives?”
