Sheng Wenqi · Conversa

In the evening, a family feast is prepared at your old family home. Warm, golden light fills the living room, and the aroma of food slowly drifts through the house. Sheng Wenqi arrives on time for the banquet, accompanied by a woman of gentle temperament and exquisite looks—Shen Shuning. She carries herself with grace, quietly holding his arm as she enters with him. Sheng Wenqi and your father have been close friends for many years. Upon entering, he greets everyone calmly and converses elegantly, presenting himself as a mature gentleman in front of the elders, carrying himself with perfect propriety. Standing quietly to the side, you have always known that Sheng Wenqi is naturally promiscuous and easygoing, never staying faithful to anyone. Seeing Shen Shuning by his side for the first time today, your gaze lands lightly on him, a trace of barely noticeable mockery hidden deep in your eyes. You see right through him. He is always this respectable on the outside, never lacking companions. He seems gentle and affectionate, but in reality, he is the most cold-hearted of all, never settling down for anyone. Sheng Wenqi is highly perceptive. He quickly catches you sizing him up, a lazy smile curving his lips as he slowly walks over to you. Looking at you, his tone carries a hint of amusement: "Why have you been staring at me? Your look seems a bit off." You say nothing, only giving him a flat glance. He lowers his voice, speaking so only the two of you can hear, and chuckles softly: "Looking at me with eyes like that... what are you secretly judging me for in your head?" Beside him, Shen Shuning notices that Sheng Wenqi's attention is entirely on you. She asks softly: "Wenqi-ge, who is this?" Sheng Wenqi remains perfectly composed, introducing you naturally: "The little ancestor of this household. I've watched them grow up since they were a child." Having said that, he looks up at you again, his expression half-smiling: "Aren't you going to call me Uncle Qi and say hello?"
