☆, Chapter 124 Who sent the flowers?
Wen Yuci did not answer Shu Wanning's question until he left.
He stood downstairs for a long time. He was the only one in Qianyue Bay, and it was cold and deserted.
Shu Wanning searched the living room, but the cigarettes and lighter that were originally placed on the coffee table were gone.
She wanted to send a message to ask Wen Yuci, but saw that he had already sent her a message.
【Wen Yuci: If you are not feeling well, don't smoke too much.】
[Wen Yuci: I'll help you quit smoking, we'll take it slow.]
She replied with a sad face emoticon. She didn't have any addiction, but it was quite difficult for her to quit.
Feeling lonely, she took out the snacks he had brought her and ate a pack on the sofa. Not satisfied, she ate another pack.
After a few days of rest, the weather gradually warmed up. On the day she returned to Sheng'an, He You placed flowers on her desk to welcome her.
He You walked over and hugged her. Seeing that she looked good, he curved his lips and teased her, "It seems that you have been eating well recently. You have finally gained some weight back."
Shu Wanning pinched her face. Wen Yuci cooked for her every night these days, and the nutritional balance was perfect, so she did eat a little more.
He You showed her the work schedule and stood aside, covering his lips to prevent himself from laughing out loud:
"Your boss Wen said that you can't be overworked. Some of the work can be handed over to him."
Shu Wanning curled her lips and put the work arrangements on the table. She hooked her finger at He You and whispered something in her ear. The two looked at each other, and He You stretched out her hand to make an 'ok' gesture.
She turned and went out. Shu Wanning sat on a chair looking through the quarterly report. Wen Yuci on the other side was staring at his phone. He had not replied to the message he sent her.
During the meeting, he placed his cell phone on the table, where he could see it even if he lowered his eyes, and did not turn it to silent mode.
However, after the meeting, he still did not receive any news.
He was a little anxious, and when he returned to the office, his assistant was standing at the door holding a large bouquet of red roses.
He thought it was his flowers, but before he could say anything, the assistant came forward and said with a smile, "Boss, your flowers."
Hearing this, Wen Yuci took a big step back and asked cautiously, "Who sent it?"
"The person who sent the flowers said it was from Miss Shu."
There was a card on the flowers. Wen Yuci signaled his assistant to hand it to him. When he saw the words on it, he let down his guard and took the flowers.
He placed the flowers on his desk, and the card said it was a thank you for his recent dinner.
He carefully touched the petals of the rose, with an unconcealable smile in his eyes. If Wen Yuming were here, he would definitely say that he was crazy.
The phone then rang, and Shu Wanning told him that she was attending a charity dinner in the evening and could not have dinner with him.
He took his hands off the flowers. It seemed that these flowers were not just to thank him for the dinner.
He called his assistant and asked, "Is there a charity dinner tonight?"
"Yes, boss. I asked you yesterday, and you said you couldn't go."
"What time does the dinner start?"
"Seven o'clock."
Glancing at the time, Wen Yuci curled his lips slightly and said, "Go back to Qianyue Bay and change clothes."
Shu Wanning never liked attending dinner parties, but this dinner was different. All the donations were for the construction and renovation of the orphanage.
She was wearing a silver long dress with two very thin straps on her shoulders, which looked like they would break if she put a little force on them.
When getting off the car, He You put a shawl on her shoulders, and after entering the door, he found a seat in the corner and sat down.
Her hair was tied up with a few curls falling at her neck.
It happened to be her period, and the wine and juice on the table were too cold. She leaned back in her chair. Occasionally someone came to chat with her, but He You turned them all away.
It wasn't until Sheng An's competitor stood in front of her that she put down her phone. The moment she looked up, she asked, "Mr. He, do you have something to talk to me about?"
"Mr. Shu is right, there is indeed something going on."
She sat opposite Shu Wanning, with her legs crossed and the wine glass swaying gently in her hand. Her eyes were not so friendly when she looked at Shu Wanning.
She covered her lips and laughed a few times, then asked her in a not-so-low voice, "I heard that Mr. Shu moved out of Qianyue Bay and divorced Mr. Wen. Is this true?"
He You wanted to say something, but Shu Wanning pulled her, raised her eyes slightly, and looked at the woman in front of her who had just taken away her business with the upturned corners of her eyes.
"What's with that look, Mr. Shu? Did I say something wrong?"
"Mr. Shu isn't talking. Doesn't he know how to continue his story?"
There was a commotion outside the door, and footsteps were getting closer. She smelled the familiar scent of cedar. Shu Wanning raised her lips and looked at her: "Someone is here, ask yourself."
As she finished speaking, there was a heat pad with a cat pattern in her arms. Wen Yuci stood beside her, opened the thermos and handed it to her.
He sat down next to her, with a distance of one person between them. He raised his eyelids and looked at the woman in front of him, with a hint of anger in his eyes.
He opened his thin lips and asked, "Were you just questioning her?"
"Premier Wen has misunderstood. There have been a lot of rumors lately, so I'm just asking for everyone."
"Yeah?"
Wen Yuci's gaze was oppressive, and the few people who had been arrogant before now looked like turtles hiding in their shells.
Wen Yuci threw the invitation card on the table, leaned back on the sofa, raised his chin slightly and asked, "Then why didn't you ask me when I came?"
"Wen Yuci."
Shu Wanning called out to him and handed him the thermos cup. Everyone saw that the arrogant man's eyes suddenly became gentle.
He took the thermos cup, closed it, took out a cotton towel from his pocket and handed it to her, and asked softly, "Have you taken your medicine today?"
Shu Wanning nodded, turned back to look at those people, and explained in a deep voice:
"She left Qianyue Bay because I made her angry and I haven't managed to appease her yet.
Do you have any other questions? Next time, please ask me and don’t bother her.
“No more, no more…”
Those people fled in panic, leaving only the woman who spoke at the beginning still sitting there.
I watched Wen Yuci reach out to Shu Wanning's hand to test its temperature, then take off his coat and put it on her.
Feeling her gaze, Wen Yuci turned his head to look at her: "Why are you still here?"
"Don't get me wrong, Mr. Wen. I've always heard that Mr. Wen dotes on his wife, and today I want to open my eyes."
Hearing her say this, Shu Wanning frowned slightly, leaned forward slightly, and her appearance was reflected in his indifferent eyes.
She sneered, "You're so envious of other people's relationships, is it because your husband treats you badly?"
"Oh, sorry." Shu Wanning covered her lips: "I'm sorry~ I forgot you just got divorced~"
She rarely showed such a temper. Wen Yuci lowered his head and curled his lips lovingly, but his face turned gloomy the moment he looked up.
The woman looked at Shu Wanning with gritted teeth. Shu Wanning curved his lips and looked at her, only thinking that her look was funny.
Wen Yuci took out her favorite biscuits from her pocket and handed them over, looking at the person opposite coldly: "Why don't you leave? Do you need me to ask you to leave?"
