Chapter 69: Atop the Tower is a Cage
"Although you can go anywhere Liang Yuan, you should not go to places you shouldn't go. You don't have this awareness, or you go there with a purpose." Liang Junchen's eyes were so sharp that he could almost see through people.
Shen Xiyi's heart suddenly choked.
"You're right, I went there with a purpose, okay." Shen Xiyi was too lazy to explain, so he just lay down and ignored him.
Liang Junchen sat on the edge of the bed for a while, then stood up and left.
Liang Jinsheng was also waiting for him to come early, and the tea he had poured was already cold.
Seeing Liang Junchen's ugly face, he chuckled: "You want to come and confront me?"
"I watched the surveillance video, and you pushed her into the water on purpose." How could Liang Junchen not be angry? Shen Xiyi was his wife after all. How he treated her was his business, and it was not okay for others to bully her.
Liang Jinsheng did not argue with Liang Junchen who was angry, and gestured for him to sit down and have tea.
"Xiyi just went to take a look at the lake. I wonder if there is anything wrong with it in your opinion, Third Uncle?" Facing Liang Jinsheng, Liang Junchen suppressed his anger and questioned in a cold voice.
But he still sat down at the tea table.
"Do you know what her relationship with Chen Si Mian is?" Liang Jinsheng hadn't been so excited for a long time.
To be precise, it has been a long time since anyone dared to challenge him like this.
"Haven't we checked it a long time ago? They have no connection."
Liang Jinsheng took out a photo from the side and pushed it in front of Liang Junchen: "Do you recognize this photo?"
The girl in the photo is in her teens, with a ponytail and wearing a fluttering, bright red dress. She is incredibly bright.
This face is somewhat similar to Shen Xiyi, but it is not Shen Xiyi. The edges of the photo are yellowed, and it is an old photo.
"This is a photo of Shen Simian when she was fifteen years old. It was found at Shen Xiyi's home in Qingxi Town." Liang Jinsheng couldn't help laughing as he spoke.
Liang Junchen's expression froze for a moment.
"So, what is their relationship?" Liang Junchen no longer had the anxiety and anger he had when he came. The moment he raised his eyes, his expression was calm.
“Chen Xiyi calls Aunt Shen Simian.”
Liang Jinsheng had never found any information about the Shen family over the years. As soon as Shen Xiyi appeared, he found a breakthrough. To some extent, Shen Xiyi personally brought his family into a threatening situation.
"What is Third Uncle going to do?"
Liang Junchen's voice was cold. He didn't know whether Liang Jinsheng would do something even more extreme to Shen Xiyi.
"Junchen, you are so smart, can't you guess what I want to do? Don't worry, I won't do anything to her." Liang Jinsheng was even a little happy.
Shen Si Mian has not bowed her head for so many years, so what about this time? Is she still unwilling to bow her head?
Liang Junchen didn't want to get involved in Liang Jinsheng's affairs, but now he was forced to get involved.
"Uncle San, I don't want to replace her for the time being."
Liang Jinsheng nodded. "As long as she doesn't go up the tower, everything will be fine. But aren't you curious? In her heart, is Liang Yuan's million-dollar fortune more important or is her aunt more important? And where do you rank in her heart?"
Men are like this. He may not like a woman, but the woman he has marked must have him in her heart.
Liang Junchen's brows gradually became gloomy, and he didn't speak for a long time.
Later, his gaze turned to the darkened tower outside the window: "Chen Si Mian, who has been missing for three years, must be up there."
"Yeah." Liang Jinsheng did not deny it.
Chen Si Mian's existence is unknown to others, and even their marriage is unknown to outsiders.
So no one would care if this person disappeared, and no one would take it to heart.
On top of the tower is a cage.
"Uncle San, you are really crazy." Liang Junchen took a deep breath and stood up.
"Junchen, if you can't get the love you want in the future, your uncle will lend you the tower." Liang Jinsheng's eyes were filled with mockery. How much better could this nephew be than himself?
"Xiyi will never need that place, and please don't hurt Xiyi again, Uncle. Otherwise, I might let Chen Si Mian go one day."
"Liang Junchen, without me, you wouldn't be where you are today. You even threaten me, you ungrateful bastard." Liang Jinsheng took off his glasses and stared at him coldly.
Liang Junchen left without saying anything.
The expression on Liang Jinsheng's face became increasingly cold.
Shen Xiyi was lying in bed alone and couldn't fall asleep, and then Liang Junchen came back.
He went to the bathroom, then came back, and the position beside Shen Xiyi sank, and then the man hugged her in his arms.
A deep voice was right next to my ear: "Why aren't you sleeping yet?"
"Wait for you."
"Aren't you angry?"
"What right do I have to be angry?"
"Rest at home tomorrow and don't get sick." The man's body was very hot. In fact, Shen Xiyi's body temperature was not low either. He just splashed in the water for several times, and it seemed that his heart was cold. Even when the man hugged him tightly like this, he still didn't feel warm enough.
She couldn't help but squeezed into his arms: "I'm a little cold."
Liang Junchen didn't say anything, but just hugged her tighter. Although he wanted to ask Shen Xiyi, he didn't say anything in the end.
He also wanted to know what decision Shen Xiyi would make in the end?
The next day at work, Shen Xiyi asked for leave, and Jiang Wan came at an unfortunate moment. The person who came to serve tea was Zhu Xingwan.
Seeing Zhu Xingwan here, Jiang Wan was a little surprised: "Isn't this Xingwan? She used to work here?"
Zhu Xingwan is a low-key second-generation girl in Nancheng, while her brother Zhu Heng is young and promising.
Zhu Xingwan made a shushing gesture and smiled, "Big star, my dad doesn't know I'm here. I lied to him that I'm studying for a master's degree. Please keep it a secret for me."
Jiang Wan understood and nodded: "Okay, how about we go eat together at noon? I haven't seen you for a long time."
The Jiang and Zhu families are old friends. Although Zhu Xingwan is much younger, Jiang Wan watched him grow up, and they still feel very close to each other after such a long separation.
"The old man in her family wanted her to take a more promising path, but she didn't like those rules. Her brother mentioned it to me, and I let her come to work. Miss Jiang, this matter really needs to be kept secret. You know about the old man in her family."
If the old man knew that Zhu Xingwan was so rebellious, he would probably give him a good beating.
Jiang Wan nodded: "I know, it's settled, Xingwan, we'll have lunch together at noon."
"Okay." Zhu Xingwan did not refuse. She knew that for a big star like Jiang Wan, the room would usually be cleared when they ate, and no one would notice her.
During the lunch break, Zhu Xingwan arrived on time for the appointment.
The restaurant was empty except for the bodyguard. Jiang Wan handed her the ordering tablet and said, "Take a look and see what you like to eat."
After Jiang Wan ordered the dishes, she also poured her a glass of wine.
"Sister Jiang Wan, you can't drink alcohol during work."
"Could it be that Junchen is going to argue with you about this?"
Zhu Xingwan checked her watch. "I only have an hour and a half. I might not be able to finish this meal. What does Sister Jiang Wan want to ask?"
Jiang Wan smiled and said, "I just heard that there's a new secretary who was parachuted into your secretariat. I wanted to know because she looks like an old friend."
Zhu Xingwan wiped his hands, his mind working quickly.
"I don't know her very well. She has a withdrawn personality and doesn't get along with us."
"Yeah?"
How could Zhu Xingwan not know about the Liang family's affairs? Liang Jinsheng and Jiang Wan had been engaged for many years, but the engagement was suddenly cancelled. After that, a woman appeared next to Liang Jinsheng.
She was only a teenager at the time and had met him a few times.
It seems that he does have some similarities with Shen Xiyi.
"Yes, I'm in the secretariat to have less contact with people. My work is simple and no one disturbs me. I don't like to maintain relationships in the office. It's not interesting." Zhu Xingwan smiled and explained it clearly.
Jiang Wan drank the wine slowly. Children from such aristocratic families are always tight-lipped and it is impossible to get any information from them.
"I understand you. I really envy you for having the courage to fight your family."
Zhu Xingwan smiled but said nothing. She didn't dare to say anything, but it was just the courage she had out of helplessness.
Jiang Wan came here and found nothing, feeling somewhat disappointed. She really wanted to take a closer look at the woman who looked very similar to Shen Si Mian.
When Zhu Xingwan came back from the restaurant, she was shocked to find Liang Junchen sitting at his workstation.
"Mr. Liang."
"Jiang Wan asked you about Shen Xiyi, right?"
"I didn't say anything." Zhu Xingwan immediately expressed his loyalty.
Liang Junchen stared at her coldly: "It seems you know everything."
