Chapter 103 Believe me, your wife must have a crush on you
After leaving the dinner party.
Ye Shuman returned to his apartment in a state of utter embarrassment.
Whenever she thought about Xu Jialan marrying Shen Xichuan, her chest heaved violently and her anger rose.
At this moment, the cell phone in the bag rang.
Ye Shuman was not in the mood and wanted to refuse the call.
But the phone rang over and over again.
She took out her cell phone impatiently and answered the call.
"I'm very upset. Is there anything that can't be discussed tomorrow?"
The agent's voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Ye Shuman, what exactly did you do at the dinner tonight?"
Hearing this, Ye Shuman paused, feeling a bad premonition.
"What did you say?"
The agent was extremely anxious. "You're still asking me what I'm talking about? Did you do something at the party that offended someone?"
Ye Shuman didn't say anything.
"I just received a call from the company. The two endorsement contracts you just negotiated have been canceled. In addition, all the business cooperation contracts that had already been signed have been terminated. Moreover, we are the ones who will pay the liquidated damages."
The agent took a deep breath. "What happened at the banquet? Who did you offend?"
It's not that she didn't think about asking other people.
But those who knew the truth kept their mouths shut and nothing could be said.
Ye Shuman couldn't hear clearly what the agent said next.
The cell phone she was holding fell to the ground at some point.
His face was as pale as a piece of white paper, without a trace of blood.
Her breathing was trembling and her hands were shaking.
what happened?
How dare she tell her agent that she had offended the Shen family?
I'm afraid everyone in the entire South City circle already knows what happened tonight.
No, she couldn't just sit there and wait for death.
…
The faint sound of water coming from the bathroom.
Shen Xichuan got up, walked outside the balcony, lit a cigarette and took a puff.
He called Shen Yankai.
Without waiting for him to speak, Shen Yankai knew his purpose.
"Don't worry, I've already had someone handle Ye Shuman's matter. I guarantee you'll be satisfied."
Shen Xichuan narrowed his eyes, and the smoke drifted away with the wind, disappearing without a trace in an instant.
He leaned lazily against the fence and hummed lightly.
Shen Yankai thought he was worried about Xu Jialan, "Your wife hasn't been bullied. Even if I'm not here, that Ye Shuman doesn't have the ability to bully your wife."
The methods used in the entertainment industry are always the same.
How could he compare to Xu Jialan, who deals with major cases all day long?
She must have known a lot of methods.
But she disdains to use such dirty means.
Shen Xichuan was silent for a few seconds before he said, “That day at the old house, Lan Lan saw the letter Ye Shuman wrote to me in my high school book.”
Hearing this, Shen Yankai was silent for a moment, "Love letter?"
Shen Xichuan didn’t speak.
Chen Yankai tutted his words, "No wonder that woman couldn't help but bite your wife the moment she saw her. It turns out it was your debt of love."
Shen Xichuan: “…”
He pinched his brows and said, "I wasn't familiar with them in high school."
How do we know what happened in the meantime?
He didn't even know that Ye Shuman liked him.
If he had known that Xu Jialan would marry him in the future, he would probably have paid more attention to her at that time, right?
So that I don’t know anything now.
After hearing this, Shen Yankai was speechless for a long time.
"If I remember correctly, you two were in the same class back then, right? You don't even know your classmates well?"
Shen Xichuan: “…”
There was silence on both ends of the phone for a while.
Shen Yankai took a sip of ice water before casually saying, "After all these years, your wife is still willing to marry you. If she hadn't been secretly in love with you back then, she would have turned away long ago during your blind date."
After the words were spoken, the two fell silent again.
Shen Xichuan’s Adam’s apple slid.
The cigarette between his fingers was almost burned out.
He didn't move at all.
The corner of Shen Yankai's mouth twitched slightly, "Could I really be right?"
Shen Xichuan said in a dumb voice, “I don’t know.”
"A woman inexplicably targets another woman, either because she's prettier than her or because she stole her man." Shen Yankai said, "I don't need to tell you whether your wife is pretty or not. As for the man... isn't it you?"
Ye Shuman had sent love letters to Shen Xichuan when they were in high school.
I was so excited tonight when I learned that Xu Jialan married Shen Xichuan.
Shen Xichuan: “…”
Shen Yankai made a direct conclusion, “Believe me, your wife must have a crush on you.”
Shen Xichuan paused for two seconds, “Then…what if it’s not?”
Hearing this, Shen Yankai was choked. "If she's not, then she's not. Isn't she already your wife? Even if she's not, what impact can it have on you two?"
"……No."
"That's it."
The two men discussed this matter on the phone for a long time.
Until Shen Xichuan heard the bathroom door being opened.
He suddenly said, "Let's not talk about it anymore. I'm hanging up."
Before Shen Yankai finished speaking, the phone was hung up.
“…”
He forgets her brother when he sees a beautiful woman and throws her away after he is done with her.
…
Shen Xichuan put away his phone and turned back to the living room.
Xu Jialan walked out, wiping his hair with a towel.
"Why don't you blow dry your hair?"
Seeing that her long hair was still dripping with water, Shen Xichuan reached out and closed the door of the French window.
Xu Jialan paused for a moment before saying, "I'm thirsty. Come out and drink some water."
"I'll pour it for you, go sit on the sofa."
As he spoke, Shen Xichuan walked quickly towards the kitchen.
Xu Jialan uttered a low "oh" and walked to the sofa and sat down.
Her eyes subconsciously turned to the man standing in the kitchen.
Shen Xichuan took a clean cup, put it under the water dispenser, and pressed the button.
For some reason, he suddenly thought of what Shen Yankai had said just now.
"If a girl likes someone, her eyes will inevitably look towards the person she likes."
Shen Xichuan's Adam's apple moved, and he inadvertently glanced in the direction of the living room.
Xu Jialan didn't realize that his gaze had been discovered long ago.
Catching that gaze, the man's fingers trembled slightly.
The water in the water dispenser stopped automatically.
Shen Xichuan came back to his senses, picked up the cup, and left the kitchen.
Before he came out, Xu Jialan withdrew his gaze and wiped his hair pretending to be calm.
Shen Xichuan looked down at the dark top of his head, and a smile could not help but appear on the corner of his mouth.
He handed the cup over and said, "Drink some water."
Xu Jialan put down the towel, quickly took it, and drank it in small sips.
Shen Xichuan stood there steadily and looked at her for a while.
Then he turned and left.
Xu Jialan lowered his head and drank water without thinking much about where he went.
After a while, the man came back.
He was holding a hair dryer in his hand.
He plugged in the power.
Then he lifted a strand of long hair and gently stroked it with his fingers and the hot wind.
His movements were much more skillful than before.
Xu Jialan was stunned. He didn't expect that he was going to get the hair dryer.
It wasn't her first time blow-drying her hair, so naturally she wasn't as nervous as the first time.
She held the cup and sat on the sofa in an overly obedient manner.
