After listening to Shang Shichang's story with an expression as if he were listening to a traditional opera, Shang Yan asked curiously, "How did the Li family know that I have a woman outside?"

Shang Shichang jumped up excitedly, staring wide-eyed at Shang Yan: "So, you really do have a woman outside?"

Shang Yan remained motionless, amusement in his eyes: "How did the Li family find out?"

Who is that woman?

Shang Yan reached out and took a few nuts from the snack plate on the table. As he slowly chewed them, he said to Shang Shichang, who was looking indignant, "Tell me how the Li family found out, and I'll tell you who that woman is."

Shang Shichang was already furious, and upon hearing Shang Yan's words, it was as if a thunderbolt had exploded in his chest. He pointed at Shang Yan and roared, "You dare to negotiate with me? You have the nerve to negotiate with me? You..."

Yu Jing hurriedly got up and advised Shang Shichang, "Shichang, don't get agitated. Talk to Ayan properly. Maybe this is just a misunderstanding."

Unable to contain his anger, Shang Shichang yelled at Yu Jing, "What misunderstanding? He admitted to having a woman outside!"

"Sit down and calm down, I'll talk to him!"

While patting Shang Shichang's back to help him catch his breath, Yu Jing pulled him to sit down on the sofa, then looked at Shang Yan, who was still lazily eating nuts, and smiled—

“Ah Yan, here’s what happened.”

Just now, Mrs. Li called and said that her sister went to Zhong Yitang to see Dr. Zhong for acupuncture. She overheard Dr. Zhong saying that there was a lipstick stain on your shirt and that it belonged to Miss Li.

After hearing this, Mrs. Li's sister assumed that you and her niece were about to get married, so she called Mrs. Li to tell her about it.

Mrs. Li was furious upon hearing this. She had spent the entire day with Su Su, so the lipstick mark could not possibly be Su Su's...

Mrs. Li felt it was outrageous that you had another woman outside the marriage and yet still went on a blind date with her daughter, so she called your father to confront him.

When women get angry, they might say anything, and some of those things can be quite harsh. "When has your dad ever been scolded like that? That's why he got so angry with you just now."

After Yu Jing finished explaining the whole story, she saw that Shang Yan didn't speak, but just chewed on dried fruit with an inscrutable smile.

She didn't know what Shang Yan was thinking. After waiting a few seconds and seeing that he still didn't speak, she had an idea: "Madam Li is making a mountain out of a molehill. A lipstick stain on your shirt collar doesn't mean you have a woman outside, does it?"

Maybe it was from when you rejected some flirtatious girl, or maybe your secretary accidentally brushed against you while talking to you, or maybe it was Sheng Sheng who brushed against you, don't you think?"

After Yu Sheng and Shang Yan entered the room, they noticed the awkward atmosphere and didn't dare to speak.

I shrank back to sit in the corner of the sofa, listening to their argument.

He was quite shocked when he heard Shang Shichang say that Shang Yan was having affairs while on blind dates with Li Susu.

She felt that Shang Yan wasn't that kind of person, but you can only know a person's face, not their heart.

Gu Ye and Chen Henian both cheated on their partners, so why can't Shang Yan do the same?

He's not married, so he's not bound by law and doesn't have to be responsible for anyone; at most, he'll face some moral condemnation.

As she was thinking this, Yu Jing began to recount the whole story.

Only after listening did she realize that it was a misunderstanding caused by the lipstick mark she left on Shang Yan's collar.

She never imagined that her unintentional mistake would trigger such a big reaction.

She sat there with mixed feelings and nervousness, waiting for Shang Yan to explain the truth and for her to be criticized by Yu Jing.

Shang Yan remained silent, and Shang Yan was growing impatient, preparing to explain the situation herself, but Yu Jing spoke first...

Those words didn't mean she believed Shang Yan hadn't cheated; they were just giving him a way out...

As she was thinking this, she heard Yu Jing say her name, and when she looked up, she met Shang Yan's eyes, which were filled with a playful look.

Yu Sheng couldn't figure out what Shang Yan was thinking, but since he didn't want to explain, then she would explain...

"Mom, that lipstick mark is definitely mine..."

Before she could finish speaking, Shang Yan interrupted her: "Aunt Jing, I know you want to protect me, but I don't think it's necessary. That lipstick mark was indeed left by another woman..."

Yu Jing was surprised that Shang Yan would admit it so directly, and for a moment she didn't know what to say. She glanced at Shang Shichang, who said, "Since you have a woman outside, why didn't you say so when your Aunt Jing arranged blind dates for you?"

Shang Yan smiled and said, "I can't say!"

Seeing that Shang Yan still looked so unserious, Shang Shichang was furious, his eyes blazing with anger: "What do you mean? You better understand."

Shang Yan lowered his eyes, pondered for a few seconds, and then said, "That woman is a married woman!"

Shang Shichang couldn't believe what he was hearing: "What did you say? Say it again!"

"That woman is married, she has a husband!"

Upon hearing this, Shang Shichang felt a rush of blood to his head, and his vision blurred as he was about to faint when Yu Jing caught him: "Shichang, don't get agitated, sit down quickly..."

Shang Shichang sat on the sofa for a while before he could recover, but he still couldn't believe that his outstanding son was having an affair with a married woman. If outsiders found out, how could he, Shang Shichang, ever face anyone again? It's fake! It must be fake! This kid is definitely just teasing him!

Clinging to this hope like a drowning man grasping at a straw, Shang Shichang looked at Shang Yan with pleading eyes: "Are you kidding me?"

Shang Yan raised an eyebrow: "Do you think I would joke about something like this?"

The blood that had just receded from Shang Shichang's head surged back to his head. He fought off the urge to faint and asked one last time, "You really... had sex with a married woman?"

"OK!"

Unable to contain his anger any longer, Shang Shichang grabbed an apple from the table and smashed it hard at Shang Yan.
