Chapter 93 Where is the huge allowance your husband gives you? Is it just sitting there making money?
After that day, Qin Shuzhi's life and work continued peacefully and orderly, and those annoying people and things never appeared before her eyes again.
This Friday is Qi Yishan's mother's birthday. Because the two have a good relationship, Qin Shuzhi would bring gifts to attend Qi's mother's birthday banquet in previous years.
But this year is different.
Qin Shuzhi didn't want to run into people she didn't want to see at her birthday party, so she didn't plan to go, but she had prepared a gift.
On Thursday at noon, she invited Qi Yishan to lunch and gave her the gift for Qi's mother, asking her to pass it on and send her blessings.
Qi Yishan knew that she didn't want to see her scumbag brother, so she didn't force her. "Okay, I'll definitely help you deliver the gift to my mother tomorrow, and another day, I'll have her invite you to dinner alone."
Qin Shuzhi smiled and said, "I should be the one to invite Auntie to dinner another day to apologize."
"Aren't you being too polite?"
Qi Yishan raised her chin, "Alright, neither of you need to invite the other. I'll treat you."
After she finished speaking, she patted her chest proudly.
"OK."
Qin Shuzhi joked, "Then Miss Qi, will you settle today's order as well?"
"What about the huge allowance your husband gives you? Is it just sitting there making money?"
Qi Yishan objected, "This meal has to be paid for with your allowance."

After dinner, everyone went back to work.
Qi Yishan also returned to her own company.
She turned the corner with the gift toward the stairwell and looked up to see Mr. Qi about to step into the president's private staircase.
"Dad, wait for me."
Her voice reached us before she even arrived.
When Qi's father turned around, she was already right in front of him.
"Did you go out for dinner?" Mr. Qi asked.
"Yeah, I'm going out to eat with Zhibao—"
As Qi Yishan was speaking, she was surprised to find that the person inside who was raising his hand to press the power button was Shen Yichen.
"...Brother, you're here too."
When Shen Yichen heard her mention Qin Shuzhi, his expression wavered for a moment, but he quickly recovered and said, "Yes, I came over to talk to my uncle about something."
"oh oh."
Qi Yishan gave a perfunctory reply and followed her father into the elevator.
As the elevator doors closed, Mr. Qi glanced at the exquisite gift box in her hand.
"What's this?"
"This is a gift from Zhibao to my mom. She asked me to pass it on."
Father Qi asked, "Is Shuzhi not coming to the birthday banquet tomorrow?"
Qi Yishan glanced at Shen Yichen, who was staring at the elevator door as if he hadn't heard their conversation, and said, "Well, she... has something to do tomorrow night and can't come."
Qi's father noticed her gaze and couldn't help but glance at Shen Yichen as well.
Qi Yishan didn't even need to reveal that Qin Shuzhi had married Shi Yuanxing; Chen's mother had come to her sister crying all day, and Qi's father found out that evening.
The Qi couple also felt very sorry about this matter.
Shuzhi was such a wonderful girl, but Yichen drove her away because of some ex-girlfriend's affair.
Nowadays, people are unwilling to attend birthday parties mostly because they don't want to see him.
Qi's father sighed inwardly, then suddenly remembered something and turned his scheming gaze back to his daughter.
Look at how well-behaved Shuzhi is, she's already married, while my own wife, who's always so unruly, is still so irresponsible.
Hmm, it seems I still need to help her arrange a few more blind dates.
Qi Yishan's family is in the furniture business. Currently, her father has arranged for her to work in the planning department of their company, and has appointed the director of the planning department as her mentor to personally guide her.
Qi Yishan never acts like a spoiled princess at work. She does everything a disciple should do with her heart, and she also studies diligently what her master teaches her. She is attentive and hardworking, and now she can handle things independently in the planning department.
Mr. Qi was very satisfied with her work performance, but her marriage was a real headache for him.
The elevator going up was quiet, each of the three people having their own thoughts.
Qi Yishan saw Shen Yichen was there and didn't want to say much.
Mr. Qi was racking his brains for suitable young talents to be his son-in-law.
Shen Yichen, who had remained silent, was thinking of Qin Shuzhi.
He knew perfectly well that Qin Shuzhi wouldn't attend the Qi family's birthday banquet tomorrow simply because of him.
Although his expression remained unchanged, his hand, which was hanging by his side, quietly curled up.
When she reached her floor, Qi Yishan waved to the two of them and then ran off in a flash.

After finishing his business in a distracted manner, Shen Yichen left the Qi family's company and did not return to his own company. Instead, he went home in a daze.
As soon as I entered the room, I went to the wine cabinet and grabbed a bottle of wine.
In the past, he would only touch one or two bottles of wine in his wine cabinet every six months; it was purely for collection.
But in the last few days, the amount of those treasured wines has visibly decreased.
The person who used to keep him from drinking... is gone. Now, even if he drinks himself to death, no one will care.
She even now...
She doesn't even want to attend events where he might be present, which shows how much she truly despises him.
Shen Yichen slumped down on the sofa, feeling as if something was gnawing at his heart. He took a few heavy breaths, and without even picking up his glass, he directly poured the bottle of strong liquor into his mouth.
Only the spiciness, like a ball of fire burning through his stomach, could slightly numb the dull pain in his heart.
Night gradually fell...
The man, his face flushed and eyes glazed, slumped on the carpet, two empty wine bottles lying casually beside him, and holding another bottle in his hand.
Shen Yichen raised the wine bottle and took another sip.
He drank too much strong liquor, and his stomach and intestines became numb. He felt as if he were drinking water.
Only those moist, sore eyes felt a stinging sensation...
The pain intensified, and he dropped the wine in his hand, gritted his teeth, and covered his eyes.
After a while, the pain still hadn't subsided, so he grabbed his phone haphazardly and habitually made a call.
It wasn't until he heard "The number you dialed is temporarily unavailable..." that he suddenly remembered who he had called.
His number had long been blacklisted by Qin Shuzhi.
He sat there, holding his phone, feeling utterly desolate. For a moment, he couldn't tell whether the pain in his eyes was greater than the tearing pain in his heart.
In the end, he could only call his assistant.

At the hospital.
"Both excessive drinking and staying up late can harm your eyes, and we repeatedly emphasized this during the recovery process."
The doctor looked at Shen Yichen lying on the bed and was anxious for him, "Your blood alcohol concentration is so high right now, are you planning to give up on your eyes that were so hard to save?"
Shen Yichen's pupils flickered, then he closed his eyes again.
yes.
Xiao Zhi used to tirelessly remind him to rest and forbid him from drinking alcohol.
At the time, he thought she was making a mountain out of a molehill based on the doctor's orders, and he even got annoyed after hearing it so many times.
But now...
Without her by his side to remind and restrain him, he indeed got into trouble.
Standing to the side, Chen He asked, "Dr. Zuo, is President Shen's eye alright now?"
Dr. Zuo looked at the test report in his hand, his brows gradually furrowing. "Has Mr. Shen's diet and sleep schedule been very irregular lately?"
Chen He thought to himself: That's for sure. In addition to working long hours lately, the boss has also been drinking heavily.
Every time Chen He couldn't help but offer a few words of advice, he would get a scolding in return.
Sure enough, I had a health problem today.
