Chapter 105 I want to stay at your place tonight.

Fu Yanci turned and left.

When Shen Qianyu turned her head, she seemed to see Fu Yanci's figure, but then again, she seemed not to see him.

Lu Xiuyuan turned his head to look, but didn't see anything. He asked gently, "What's wrong?"

"fine."

Shen Qianyu withdrew her gaze; perhaps she had misread it.

Fu Yanci has no feelings for her other than friendship, so why would he secretly watch her from behind?

They followed Lu Xiuyuan into the restaurant for their meal.

Shen Qianyu remained like an AI, responding to whatever Lu Xiuyuan said with a simple "hmm," and remaining silent if Lu Xiuyuan didn't speak.

In the middle of the night, Shen Qianyu's phone rang. It was an unfamiliar number. Shen Qianyu was a little surprised. She picked up the phone, stood up, and prepared to go out to answer it.

Lu Xiuyuan pressed down on her wrist: "Qianyu, is there something you can't tell me?"

Shen Qianyu didn't say anything, but pushed his hand away and went outside.

"Hello, I am Shen Qianyu."

"Miss Chen, I'm sorry to bother you so late. I was so busy during the day that I forgot I was going to call you."

I'm processing your travel documents, but there are some new requirements that you haven't provided. Let me tell you about them, please write them down, and bring them to me tomorrow. This will speed up your processing.

Shen Qianyu thought for a moment: "Could you send me a text message? I'm eating out and I can't remember what you want."

I'm actually quite eager to go abroad, and this time I don't want to delay any longer.

"Okay, I'll compose a text message for you in a bit."

"Thanks."

Shen Qianyu hung up the phone, feeling particularly happy that she had finally gotten the job done. She thought that dealing with Lu Xiuyuan later might not be a bad idea.

Just as Shen Qianyu was about to turn back, Yan Ye called her back.

"Qianyu, are you going abroad?"

Shen Qianyu's body stiffened.

When she came out to answer the phone, she didn't see anyone nearby. She never expected that Yan Ye would be watching her.

"Qianyu, why did you go abroad? You knew Xiuyuan couldn't go abroad, so what were you doing there?"

Shen Qianyu clenched her fists tightly, then turned to look at Yan Ye.

Lu Xiuyuan knew I was going abroad; I was going to attend a close friend's wedding.

Yan Ye looked at her strangely: "How come I don't remember you having a sister abroad? You've always been by Xiu Yuan's side since you were little. Apart from Yun Shu, I've never seen you have any friends. You're not lying to Xiu Yuan, are you?"

Shen Qianyu was still very nervous, but she felt particularly ironic.

You see, Yan Ye could tell right away that she didn't have any close friends abroad, but even after he told Lu Xiuyuan several times, he still didn't realize it.

It's clear that even though Lu Xiuyuan's attention is currently focused on Shen Qianyu, he doesn't actually care that much about her.

"Shen Qianyu, are you planning to go abroad and never come back?"

Yan Ye seemed to understand something at once and asked directly.

"Yes, I plan to go abroad and not come back."

In front of Yan Ye, Shen Qianyu directly admitted it.

Yan Ye looked at her in disbelief: "You, you really want to leave? Do you know what will happen to Xiu Yuan if you leave? Qian Yu, you're leaving behind his back. Have you even considered Xiu Yuan?"

Shen Qianyu didn't want Lu Xiuyuan inside to find out, so she pushed him aside to a spot where Lu Xiuyuan couldn't see him.

Yan Ye saw Lu Xiuyuan's figure inside: "Qianyu, do you know what the consequences of deceiving him will be?"

Shen Qianyu had always had a good impression of Yan Ye, but she couldn't agree with him after hearing what he said.

"So Yan Ye, tell me, what should I do? He and Lin Weixia are not only married, but they even have a child. Should I stay and continue being a mistress?"

Just because I'm a maid, I don't know how many people look down on me. If it were revealed that I'm a third sister, how do you think people would view me?

You're only thinking of Lu Xiuyuan, but have you ever thought of me?

Yan Ye was stunned: "You, how did you know?"

Shen Qianyu glanced at him helplessly: "I heard everything you said in his office that day."

Yan Ye's eyes flickered violently, and he was speechless for a moment.

"Yan Ye, do you know how I've been through these past few days? I also know why he takes Lin Weixia with him everywhere he goes. He even tried to fool me with fake documents. Because of Lu Xiuyuan, my parents have beaten me countless times."

You know what Lin Weixia did to me. I'm a person, not a cat. Even if a cat has nine lives, I'm afraid it's only one life left now.

Besides, I'm not the only one being asked to leave; Lu Xiuyuan's mother also wants me to leave. If you were me, what would you choose?

Although Yan Ye was not involved in these matters, he had heard about them to some extent.

He also advised Lu Xiuyuan not to do anything he would regret.

As a result, he neither listened nor spoke, and even made Shen Qianyu back down on several occasions.

Just watching him made him feel incredibly sad, not to mention that Shen Qianyu actually knew everything but had to pretend not to...

Shen Qianyu looked directly at him: "I am especially grateful to you. You always speak up for me, which is why I went to your grandfather's birthday party that day. But if you really care about me, please keep it a secret for me. In two more days, my paperwork will be completed, and then you can set me free."

After saying that, Shen Qianyu went back.

Yan Ye stood there, watching Shen Qianyu's back, and realized that she had actually lost a lot of weight during this time.

Shen Qianyu used to be so confident and charming. Yan Ye also understood that if it weren't for her status, it wouldn't be impossible for Lu Xiuyuan to fall in love with her.

Around the time she learned that Lu Xiuyuan and Lin Weixia had registered their marriage, Shen Qianyu's suffering began.

Although he spoke up for Shen Qianyu, he also helped Lu Xiuyuan cover it up, which unintentionally hurt Shen Qianyu.

But when he thought about how Lu Xiuyuan's previous outbursts were all because of Shen Qianyu, he didn't know what to do.

It's obvious that Lu Xiuyuan really likes Shen Qianyu, to the point that even he himself doesn't know how much he likes her.

If he really knew that Shen Qianyu was gone, I wonder what would happen to him?

...

When Shen Qianyu and Lu Xiuyuan came out, they did not see Yan Ye, and Shen Qianyu breathed a sigh of relief.

Yan Ye probably won't tell Lu Xiuyuan.

After returning home, Shen Qianyu was very nervous, afraid that Yan Ye would rush in and tell Lu Xiuyuan everything, and then she would be unable to leave.

This kind of life is truly unbearable.

Lu Xiuyuan noticed that something was wrong with her and asked, "What's wrong? You've been distracted ever since you answered the phone?"

Shen Qianyu smiled at him: "No, I'm fine."

Lu Xiuyuan felt very uncomfortable. These days of getting along had not brought them closer, but instead had made them more distant.

Lu Xiuyuan suddenly pulled her close, looking directly at her: "Qianyu, I'd like to stay at your place tonight."
