Jing Yan: “…”
He was so engrossed in eavesdropping that he forgot to hang up in time and was caught on the spot. It was the first time Jing Yan felt guilty.
At this moment, he was working in the office. His assistant placed a document on his desk. He caught a glimpse of Jing Yan's strange expression and asked nervously, "What's wrong with you?"
"It's okay, you can go out first." Jing Yan responded indifferently.
The assistant nodded, walked out of the office, and closed the door for him.
After he left, Jing Yan was the only one left in the huge office. When he was about to reply to Xie Shizhu, the phone in front of him had already been hung up. The black screen of the phone reflected his superior facial features.
*
After hearing the voice of Jing Yan's assistant, Xie Shizhu thought he was busy and hung up the phone first.
Moreover, the malicious value in her body dropped directly to 60 because of her recent transaction with Jing Cheng, which shows that all her guesses were correct.
Part of the original owner's maliciousness came from Jing Cheng. With what happened in the past few days, she was able to vent the original owner's anger.
*
Jing Cheng returned to the house he bought for Cheng Siyu. His anger was instantly relieved when he saw Cheng Siyu's delicate appearance.
"Ah Cheng, the things about you on the Internet started with me," Cheng Siyu said, feeling melancholy and blaming herself. Her soft hands gently pressed Jing Cheng's shoulders. "It's all my fault."
Jing Cheng placed his palm on the back of Cheng Siyu's hand and soothed her, "It has nothing to do with you. It's okay. The netizens are just talking nonsense about this matter. It will soon be over."
Cheng Siyu withdrew her hand and snuggled in Jingcheng's arms.
Jing Cheng looked down at Cheng Siyu's pure and lovely face, thinking that Xie Shizhu's unruly character was not even as bad as a hair of Cheng Siyu's.
The cell phone in his pocket rang. Jing Cheng took out his phone and saw that it was the eldest son of the Lin Group. He thought he wanted to drink or something, so he answered the call.
"I heard that the Xie family doesn't want you to get engaged to Xie Shizhu?"
Jing Cheng was stunned for a moment, then realized that the other party was going to laugh at Xie Shizhu for being abandoned by him, so he sneered: "Isn't it."
Upon hearing this, the other party became excited: "Then I have a chance. I will talk to my dad and ask him to communicate with Xie Shizhu's father. Our Lin family can also marry into the Xie family."
Jing Cheng: “?”
"I met Xie Shizhu at the dinner party last time. I didn't expect her to be so pretty. She's quite different from the women I know."
Jing Cheng's face darkened, "Get out!"
He hung up the phone abruptly and said to himself, "What kind of vision is that?"
Cheng Siyu nestled in Jing Cheng's arms and naturally heard the voice on the phone. Her face changed slightly, and then she hugged Jing Cheng's neck and gave him a passionate kiss.

Xie Shizhu returned home and received a text message on her phone. She opened it while changing her clothes.
[How long does the queue last?]
Xie Shizhu paused with his fingers pinching the corner of his clothes, and glanced at these words with a little surprise.
What he said on the phone just now was a disguised rejection of the other party. Any ordinary person would understand the meaning, but as a man who is well-versed in the business world, Jing Yan knew what it meant.
Xie Shizhu changed into her pajamas. She thought hard and finally understood Jing Yan's thoughts.
Is this what she meant by taking the initiative?
Xie Shizhu picked up his phone and typed a reply to the message.
Jing Yan waited for nearly an hour before finally receiving a text message from Xie Shizhu.
[The child is teachable.]
Jing Yan: “…”
He lowered his eyes and stared at the screen of his mobile phone, a helpless smile appeared on his slightly cold lips, and his slender and powerful fingertips touched the screen a few times to send the edited message.
Xie Shizhu was lying on his side on the bed. He was stunned for a moment when he saw the message sent by Jing Yan.
[Teacher Xie, could you spare some time tomorrow?]
Xie Shizhu chuckled and quickly replied "OK".
Jingcheng thought that the matter regarding the video would calm down in a day or two, but when he went online again, he found that it did not develop as he expected.
Still being scolded by netizens.
His annoyed contacts tried to delete the content that was unfavorable to him, but after contacting several people, the responses they received were all ambiguous rejections.
It goes without saying that it was Xie Shizhu who was behind the scenes, wasn't it just to pressure him into marrying her?
Jing Cheng sneered and said, "Dream on!"
Xie Shizhu sat in an antique private room, and a waiter in a cheongsam poured her tea.
After the waiter left, Xie Shizhu leaned back in his chair and asked, "Are you holding on to the Jingcheng incident?"
Jing Yan did not deny it and nodded slightly.
He stared at the woman opposite with deep eyes, and there was a strange flash in his eyes.
Maybe Xie Shizhu likes Jingcheng, and what he did would cause Xie Shizhu's dissatisfaction?
While Jing Yan was pondering over it, Xie Shizhu picked up the teacup in front of him, took a sip, and said, "Very well done."
Jing Yan's tense face relaxed instantly, and his eyes inadvertently glanced at the ring on Xie Shizhu's finger, "Yes, Jing Zhiyang agreed to our engagement."
Xie Shizhu's fingertips stroked the blue and white porcelain of the cup, a cunning glint flashing across her clear eyes. "So, do we consider the challenge a success?"
Jing Yan was infected by her smile, and his usually indifferent expression softened. "Okay."
Xie Shizhu raised his teacup and blinked gently, "Then let's clink glasses with tea instead of wine."
Jing Yan picked up the cup like her. After they clinked their cups, Jing Yan's thin lips approached the cup, but his eyes were on Xie Shizhu's face.
Xie Shizhu naturally didn't notice his gaze when he lowered his head to drink tea.
Ever since Jing Cheng and Jing Zhiyang had a falling out, Jing Yan has become busier than before.
