Chapter 167 "Your man has been a bit clingy lately."
Wen Xi's face stiffened for a moment, then she clenched her fist and coughed.
"Brother, I forgot to introduce you."
"This is Mr. Pang from Fengyuan International. I came in today to consult with Mr. Pang about something."
"Since I was thinking of seeing you, I thought I'd introduce you to President Pang while I was at it."
She glanced at Wen Zhou, giving him a meaningful look.
Don't shout if there are outsiders present.
Wen Zhou, alerted by Wen Xi, turned his gaze to Pang Ruoyun.
Pang Ruoyun stepped forward to greet her.
Wen Zhou exchanged a few polite words with her, and immediately understood the situation.
During their conversation, Wen Zhou handed Wen Xi a glass of champagne: "The champagne here is pretty good, you should try it."
Wenxi accepted it without hesitation and savored it earnestly.
Wen Zhou glanced at Yan Xu behind him again, "Go get a few cakes, choose ones with less cream, and also get a cup of black tea."
Yan Xu had been staring at Wen Xi for a while.
Upon hearing Wen Zhou's words, his expression stiffened, and he reluctantly turned and left.
But I couldn't help but think of the smile on Wenxi's face when she called Wenzhou "brother" just now.
It turns out that Wenxi wasn't born with a deadpan face; she can smile at people too.
So she didn't actually like him from the beginning, right?
They're really good at pretending.
After a brief chat, Mr. Pang left satisfied.
Wenxi, holding a glass of champagne, asked, "Brother, how did you get Yan Xu to be so obedient?"
Wen Zhou didn't answer her, but instead asked, "Aren't you going to ask about your succubus?"
Wenxi: "..."
The succubus meme is something we just can't get over.
Wenxi was too lazy to correct her.
Succubus it is, anyway, no one will associate this word with Shang Chen.
Wen Xi brought up the serious matter: "Brother, did you bring Wen Chao back to the Wen family to investigate Wen Haichuan's unauthorized transfer of Wen's assets?"
If Wen Chao hadn't spread rumors, Shang Chen wouldn't have been able to uncover Wen Haichuan's embezzlement and transfer of Wen's assets.
Since Shang Chen was able to find out, her brother must have found out as well.
Wen Zhou may have known about this even earlier and deliberately provoked Wen Chao to cause trouble.
Wen Zhou frankly said, "I only found out a little bit at the time. If I wanted to continue investigating, it would definitely alert him, so I could only find something for him to do."
Wen Xi: "If we bring Wen Chao into the Wen family, as long as she and Yan Zhao start fighting, Wen Haichuan will be busy with lawsuits every day and won't be able to spare the time. This will also slow down the pace of transferring assets, and you, brother, will be able to better investigate what he does in private."
"That really is killing two birds with one stone."
Wenxi clinked glasses with Wenzhou and smiled faintly, "My brother is really amazing."
Wenxi always felt that there was more to the story than met the eye when her brother brought Wen Chao into the Wen family.
His brother has plenty of ways to deal with Wen Chao and Yan Zhao; there's no need to make it so obvious.
If the only goal is to lure Wen Chao into the Wen family to deal with Yan Zhao, it would be a case of killing a thousand enemies while losing eight hundred of your own.
So that's what it was all about.
A shadow crossed Wen Zhou's eyes: "Those old fogies in the company have always refused to take sides. We have to make them feel the pain before they know what's good for them."
The assets transferred by Wen Haichuan are not just Wen Zhou's property, but also the property of every shareholder under the Wen Group.
After saying that, Wen Zhou raised his hand and patted Wen Xi's head: "I know what's going on with the Wen family."
"Just live a good life with your succubus."
Wenxi glanced around the room casually and then simply went along with Wenzhou's words.
Where is my succubus?
"The bathroom." Wen Zhou paused, then suddenly blurted out, "Your man has been a bit clingy lately."
Wenxi: "?"
When Wenxi heard the word 'clingy', she didn't react for a long time.
"Whom should I stick to?"
Wen Zhou glanced at her indifferently, "Me."
Wenxi: "..."
Wen Xi stared at Wen Zhou quietly, not quite believing it: "Brother, are you really talking about Shang Chen?"
Wen Zhou said casually, "Yes, it's your Chenchen."
Heavy?!
Wenxi lowered her voice and asked, "Brother, how do you know that nickname?"
If Shang Chen finds out about this nickname, he'll probably have a serious face again.
Wen Zhou: "I'm not blind to your WeChat Moments."
Wen Zhou disapproved of Shang Chen showing affection in front of him, but he didn't mind Wen Xi showing affection.
This at least proves that Wenxi's married life is good and that she is in good personal condition.
Wen Xi chuckled awkwardly, "I had forgotten about that."
Wen Zhou added, "Your succubus also showed off to me."
Wenxi: "..."
Shang Chen and her brother were showing off their nickname, Chenchen.
The scene was so beautiful that Wenxi never expected it.
After an awkward moment, Wenxi's curiosity prevailed: "Speaking of which, how did he become so clingy to you?"
“Lately, he’s been leaving early and coming home late every day, and he’s dressed more and more elaborately each day, even wearing perfume… I don’t know who he’s going to see.”
Wen Zhou sensed the jealousy in Wen Xi's words, and his expression became somewhat strange.
Just then, Yan Xu returned, and Wen Zhou said with a cold face, "Why don't you go back and ask your Chenchen?"
Wenxi raised an eyebrow.
Was there really an inside story behind her casual question?
Wenxi casually placed the champagne on a passing waiter's tray and said with a faint smile, "Okay, then I'll go find my Chenchen."
Yan Xu held the small cakes and black tea that had just been brought over, her lips slightly pursed.
"She's gone, what will happen to these cakes?"
Wen Zhou said politely and gently, "You can keep it for yourself."
"I don't like eating these!"
Wen Zhou, carrying a glass of red wine, walked toward a business partner without giving Yan Xu a second glance.
Yan Xu gritted his teeth.
The Wen siblings are both hypocritical and despicable!
When Wenxi found Shang Chen, a young girl was walking towards him with a wine glass in her hand.
As she approached, she overheard their conversation.
The little girl smiled happily: "Sir, I'd like to ask you a very presumptuous question."
Shang Chen had a serious face and spoke with the rigid tone of an old cadre.
"If you really feel it's presumptuous, then you shouldn't ask."
The little girl: "..."
Wenxi: "..."
It seems I've suddenly figured out why Shang Chen has remained single and scandal-free until he's thirty.
The little girl gritted her teeth secretly before forcing a smile and saying, "No, I'm very curious!"
Shang Chen stared at the other person expressionlessly.
He naturally exudes an intimidating aura, with slightly furrowed brows that convey a sense of oppression.
An ordinary young girl would be scared away or embarrassed to the point of wanting to disappear if she met him.
But the other person was not afraid at all, and even boldly asked, "What brand of perfume are you wearing?"
"I really like it..." The young girl, probably afraid of being rejected, quickly said, "I saw your wedding ring, and I absolutely didn't mean anything by it!"
"I love collecting perfumes. I just passed by and smelled your perfume. I really, really love it!"
"Please tell me the brand!"
The little girl clasped her hands together, waving them as she said, "I just want to know the brand..."
"no!"
Shang Chen uttered two words and turned to leave.
The little girl exclaimed, "Uncle, don't be so rigid!"
"If you think it's inappropriate to tell me, I'll have my dad ask you?"
Upon hearing the term "uncle," Shang Chen's thick eyebrows and eyes became even more serious.
Wenxi wanted to laugh, but said with a hint of helplessness, "Husband?"
Shang Chen paused in his steps.
When he turned around and saw Wenxi, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
He asked in a deep voice, "Why are you here?"
Wenxi glanced at him calmly, and the coaxing words came out of her mouth effortlessly.
"miss you."
Although Shang Chen knew that Wen Xi was fooling him, he still relaxed his furrowed brows.
Wen Xi said calmly, "Don't be so fierce to girls."
"Perfect timing, I've been quite curious about the scent of your perfume."
The little girl didn't leave when she saw Wenxi arrive; she stood not far away with a look of reluctance on her face.
Hearing Wenxi's words, her eyes lit up, and she whispered, "I know my behavior is very impolite, but I'm just so, so, so curious!"
“I’ve bought thousands of perfumes, and I’ve never smelled anything like this gentleman’s unique scent.”
"If you can tell me, I will give your wife five bottles of custom-made limited edition perfume in return."
The little girl opened her palm very seriously and with great reluctance, and made a five.
Shang Chen frowned: "...Assistant Wu bought it for me. He said it's a brand-name perfume and nothing special."
"Impossible!" the little girl said confidently. "The top notes of this perfume are very unique; it could never be a branded perfume!"
Wenxi understood a bit, "It smells more like a women's perfume?"
The little girl nodded excitedly, then secretly glanced at Shang Chen.
When she first smelled this scent on Shang Chen, she thought he was gay.
After all, none of the elite men she had met wore this kind of perfume.
"It can't be described as a men's or women's perfume. It's mainly because the fragrance is rich and complex, yet it also exudes a cool and elegant feel... Men generally wouldn't use it."
After thinking carefully for a moment, Shang Chen finally came up with some ideas.
