Chapter 885 Shang Shiyan: I Want to Uphold My Husband's Authority!

Country F.

The vehicle traveled for five hours along the winding mountain road.

Because of the strong winds, visibility was obstructed while driving, resulting in extremely slow speeds.

The surrounding area is mountainous, and there was even a period when cell phone signals were unavailable.

After arriving at the test flight site.

As Shang Xun got out of the car and was about to turn on his phone, the man next to him suddenly spoke up: "How does this have anything to do with the Second Young Master?"

Shang Xun paused, then instinctively looked over: "What has anything to do with me?"

"Second Young Master, didn't you see the news?"

The speaker was an overseas Chinese working in country F who kept up with domestic news.

The content on my phone was pushed out ten minutes ago.

"?"

Shang Xun looked bewildered, opened his phone and checked several apps, but found nothing particularly interesting in the news.

"Look."

The staff member handed over the phone.

Shang Xun looked down and saw that the Weibo trending topics had exploded.

Black Fox's name was listed at the top of the list.

Shang Xun's pupils constricted, and he grabbed the phone, tapping on it to look.

There are too many comments, and they're all a mess.

But he still managed to extract useful information.

In order to get revenge on Black Fox, An Huini conspired with others to frame her.

This happened two days ago...

Before this, the internet was full of people criticizing Black Fox, and some even secretly smashed the windows of her studio.

He spoke to her on the phone this morning, so why didn't she mention it?

Shang Xun scrolled down and saw the content of the press conference.

He felt a bit suffocated just reading the text.

How did Black Fox survive being criticized like that?

Shang Xun then grabbed other people's phones to look at them and found that only his was different.

It's obvious.

He was deliberately excluded from the situation, kept from knowing what was happening in the country.

Who did it?

You can guess it without even thinking.

Shang Xun immediately dialed Black Fox's number, and it was answered quickly.

"Hello?"

Black Fox seemed to have just woken up; his voice still sounded languid.

"Why didn't you tell me about what happened back home?" Shang Xun clenched his fists, struggling to control his emotions. "Black Fox, do you still not consider me one of your own?"

“I’m your boyfriend. Everyone knows about this big thing, but you’ve kept it from me.”

"say!"

"Pretty arrogant, Second Young Master." Black Fox smirked, speaking casually, "With you so fierce, how dare I speak?!"

His tone was slow and deliberate, yet it carried a sarcastic undertone.

"..."

Shang Xun's heart skipped a beat. His anger instantly subsided, replaced by a surge of guilt.

Damn it.

He was so impulsive and angry that his tone was so fierce.

"sorry."

Shang Xun frowned and apologized in a hoarse voice, "I didn't mean to be mean to you. I was just too angry after seeing the news and comments online."

"And then there's you, keeping it from me."

"Everyone knows except me." Shang Xun became increasingly aggrieved as the conversation progressed. "Don't you love me? Are you only with me because you pity me? Do you want to dump me at any time?"

"Then let me tell you, once you're on my pirate ship, you'll never get off."

"I will never let you go, not even as a ghost."

"..."

Black Fox pursed his lips, the more he listened, the more convinced he was that Black Fox was truly furious.

Speak without thinking.

She took a deep breath, composed herself, and slowly asked, "Are you calmer now? Do you still want to yell at me a couple more times?"

"I……"

Shang Xun choked up, feeling both humble and helpless, and said with a wronged expression, "How could I bear to scold you? I don't even have time to love you enough."

"oh."

Black Fox chuckled softly, in a pleasant mood: "You're quite good at imagining things. Did I ever say I didn't love you or that I wanted to break up with you?"

"Um?"

Shang Xun was stunned for a few seconds, then his eyes widened instantly: "Black Fox, you admit you love me, right?"

“My phone has a recording function. I want to cut out this sentence and set it as a call reminder.”

"..."

Black Fox's smile froze, and he said with a grim face, "Try setting it up."

Shang Xun: "..."

He was just saying it casually; he wouldn't dare.

We'll see.

Such a private confession, of course he had to keep it to himself and listen to it secretly.

"The domestic issues have been resolved, and there aren't many problems left. You should focus on your work."

"Black Fox said in a low voice."

"You didn't tell me because you were afraid I'd go back halfway through and mess up my work?"

Shang Xun realized what was happening and frowned: "Black Fox, no job is more important than you, really."

“Of course I know,” Black Fox replied. “It’s nothing for you to come back if I can handle it.”

"Shang Xun, I know how you feel."

"I also want you to get better and better, and achieve something for your family to see."

"Do you want them to think I'm just a pretty face who relies on men and hinders your career?"

"Of course not."

Understanding her good intentions, Shang Xun's eyes stung and his voice became hoarse, "Black Fox, I love you, I really love you."

"I heard you."

Black Fox held the little fox in his hand, a smile playing on his lips. "Work hard, I'll be waiting for you to come back."

"Don't worry, I guarantee I'll complete the mission," Shang Xun replied firmly. "Wait for me to get back."

"good."

Black Fox acknowledged the call, hung up, looked up at the sky, and sighed.

Just like a child.

They're so hard to coax.

——

End the call.

Instead of immediately getting to work, Shang Xun dialed Shang Shiyan's number.

"Brother, why did you keep the matter of Black Fox from me as well?"

"..."

There was a few seconds of silence on the other end of the phone before a man's low, husky voice came through: "Why? Should we give the phone to your sister-in-law and ask her yourself?"

"..."

Shang Xun was speechless, which meant he knew the answer.

It must have been Black Fox who told his sister-in-law not to say anything, and then his sister-in-law warned his brother.

“No need for that.” Shang Xun touched the bridge of his nose and said in a muffled voice, “Although Black Fox has clarified the rumors, An Huini is still at large. The An family will definitely do everything in their power to protect her.”

"So what do you want to do?"

“Debts must be repaid, and murderers must pay with their lives. Of course I want her to go to jail.”

Shang Xun gritted his teeth. If it weren't for the distance and his work commitments, he would have loved to fly back and deal with the An family himself.

"Don't worry about it, you don't need to worry about it, we'll take care of it."

Shang Shiyan said unhurriedly, "None of your sister-in-law's family members are vegetarians."

settle down?

What does homeownership even matter compared to the needs of businesses?!

"Thank you, brother."

Shang Xun chattered on for a few more minutes, then asked Black Fox how he was doing lately, whether he was sleeping and eating well.

"?"

Shang Shiyan got annoyed and hung up the phone.

Tsk.

Why doesn't he dare to ask his own woman, but instead bothers his older brother?

how?

His status in the family has dropped so low that even that scoundrel Shang Xun doesn't respect him anymore!

It seems so.

He still needs to assert his authority as a husband, otherwise things will get worse—

Shang Shiyan suddenly stood up, straightened his clothes, and said, "I want—"

The door suddenly opened, and Pei Jinwu stared at him blankly: "What do you want?"

Shang Shiyan: "Upholding the authority of the husband" (muttering to himself).

"nothing."

Shang Shiyan smiled, pulled his wife into his lap, kissed her cheek, and said in a doting tone, "Want some grapes? I'll peel them for you."

——

good evening.

Wanbao: Master Shang is really tough (gives a thumbs up), but his knees are a little weak!
