Chapter 140 He is angry
"I don't want to drive you away, I just want you to..."
Before Cen Wan finished speaking, her cell phone suddenly rang. It was Dean Su calling. She glanced at Shen Yixiao and walked to the window to answer the call.
"...Okay, I'll be right there."
Cen Wan hung up the phone, looked at Shen Yixiao, and slowed down her tone: "President Su has something to talk to me about. Can we talk when we get back tonight?"
Shen Yixiao pursed his lips, his jawline was tense, his eyes were dark, and his whole body exuded a sharp coldness. He didn't say a word.
Cen Wan bit her lip and said, "I'll be back soon."
After saying that, she looked at him again before turning and leaving.
The sound of a door closing was heard. Shen Yixiao closed his eyes, clenched his hands hanging by his side little by little, and tried hard to suppress the anxiety in his heart.
…
On the way back after talking with Dean Su, Cen Wan kept thinking about how to have a calm conversation with Shen Yixiao, and was also reflecting on whether her tone just now was too harsh.
Dean Su said that Shen Yixiao invested money in the mural restoration project to attract talent and improve their living conditions. This is a non-profit business, purely for public welfare.
The dean asked her to ask Shen Yixiao how long he would stay, and wanted to hold a banquet to thank him.
Cen Wan didn't expect him to do this. She thought he didn't care much about this project. After all, it had nothing to do with him.
When she reached the door, Cen Wan paused, controlled her emotions, and then pushed the door open.
But when I opened the door, the room was empty.
Shen Yixiao is not here.
His belongings and laptop were also missing.
Cen Wan was stunned and confused for a moment. Did he leave?
The wind blew in from the window, ruffling the papers on the table. Cen Wan's attention was attracted and she looked over.
There was a piece of white paper on the table, with a pen on it and a line of words on it -
There's something going on at the company, so I'm going back first.
Shen Yixiao's handwriting has always been vigorous and powerful, but these few words are very sloppy, as if the person who wrote them was also distracted and upset.
The loose hair by my ears was messed up by the wind, bringing with it the coolness of the evening.
Cen Wan was stunned for a moment, staring at the line of words for a long time. Her fingers moved slightly, and an indescribable feeling of helplessness surged up. Her chest seemed to be filled with sour lemon juice, and the sourness and stagnation spread throughout her limbs.
He is angry.
This realization gradually brought her back to her senses. She took out her cell phone and opened the dialog box between the two of them. Her hand froze on the screen for a long time. She typed and deleted again, not knowing what to send.
Cen Wan sat on the bed, watching the sky gradually darken outside the window. She slowly lowered her eyes. The room was empty, and her heart felt empty as well.
…
"I'm going to get my shoes back tomorrow. Do you think I should go to the company to look for him or wait for him somewhere else?"
In the evening, Gu Zhiyuan initiated a multi-person video chat in the group, ready to ask everyone to help her come up with strategies to win over Shen Xubai.
"You actually endured for three whole days without looking for him this time. That's a huge leap!" Jiang Yuan gave her a thumbs up.
Gu Zhiyuan rolled her eyes: "Don't think I can't hear you're playing dirty tricks on me, but I'm not proactive when pursuing someone, so it's a wonder I can actually win over someone!"
Jiang Yuan rolled around on the bed and lay in an extremely lazy position: "I didn't, don't talk nonsense."
"But if you really catch the person, can I use you two as materials to process and create my own works?"
"I've almost figured out the plan for Wanwan and Mr. Shen."
Gu Zhiyuan's eyes widened, with an expression of "I see." "I suspect you're only being friends with me to gather material! You heartless woman."
Jiang Yuan threw her a coquettish look and said, "Don't be so stingy. I'll treat you to a meal later."
"That's more like it." Gu Zhiyuan snorted, "But I have a request."
"What?"
"Then you have to write that he's the one pursuing me."
Jiang Yuan raised his eyebrows: "This is difficult, little mouse."
"Don't call me a little mouse!" Gu Zhiyuan was furious and complained to Cen Wan, "Wanwan, look at her, she always bullies me!"
"Ah?" Cen Wan in front of the screen finally came to her senses and said helplessly, "You two might as well just have a fight."
Gu Zhiyuan: "Pick a good day to fight one-on-one."
Jiang Yuan shrugged: "Don't worry, I will be 'out of prison' in more than half a month, you should practice well first."
After she finished speaking, she looked at Cen Wan: "Wanbao, what's wrong with you? Are you unhappy?"
"Hmm?" Cen Wan didn't know how she figured that out, but she didn't want to spoil their fun. "No."
Jiang Yuan had a look on his face that said, "Do you think I believe you?" He said, "If you tell us something, we might be able to help you come up with a solution. Look at the little mouse, it screams at the slightest sign of trouble. You shouldn't have to shoulder everything yourself."
"Hey hey hey, why are you making personal attacks?"
Gu Zhiyuan also looked at Cen Wan: "Tell us something, you haven't said much tonight."
Cen Wan pursed her lips and hesitated for a few seconds: "I think I had a quarrel with Shen Yixiao..."
Jiang Yuan: "As if?"
Gu Zhiyuan: "Fighting!"
Cen Wan briefly explained the matter.
He came all the way to accompany her, she shouldn't have said that.
“Hahahahahahahaha…” Gu Zhiyuan laughed happily.
Jiang Yuan frowned: "What are you happy about?"
Gu Zhiyuan made no secret of her excitement: "I thought that if you two get married and quarrel in the future, it will be Chen Yixiao who runs away from home. That would be so cool, hahahaha..."
Jiang Yuan: “…”
Cen Wan: "..."
Gu Zhiyuan: "I want to laugh when I think of that scene."
Cen Wan was originally feeling very uncomfortable, but after hearing what Gu Zhiyuan said, she seemed to be able to imagine that scene.
He ran away from home in a rage, and he would definitely come back after a while with a wronged look on his face, asking her with a resentful look why she didn't go to find him and whether she didn't love him anymore.
Thinking of this, her heart suddenly softened.
Shen Yixiao gets angry easily, but is also easy to coax.
She raised her eyes and smiled: "Thank you Zhizhi, I know what to do now."
"No," Gu Zhiyuan widened his eyes, "Don't do it yet. Let him be angry for a few days. Don't bother with him."
"Men can't be spoiled."
Failure is terrible, but a friend's success is even more heartbreaking.
She really wanted to see Shen Yixiao get humiliated.
Cen Wan curled her lips and said, "Okay, let's talk about your plan."
Jiang Yuan said quietly, "Wanbao, if Zhizhi really becomes your sister-in-law, then wouldn't I really become an outsider?"
Cen Wan smiled: "How could that be? You will always be my most important friend and family member."
"Then let me ask you, if Shen Yixiao and I fell into the water at the same time, who would you save?"
Gu Zhiyuan raised her hand: "And me, and me!"
Cen Wan: "..."
Did they learn this from Shen Yixiao?
She started to act badly: "Hey, what did you say? I have a bad signal here and can't hear you clearly."
