Chapter 15 [1, 2, 3 updates] (1)

The ladies present had originally had some expectations for this new perfume maker who was somewhat famous abroad, but they didn't expect that she was the only one who was late for so long.

I couldn't help but smile a little awkwardly.

And she was really... quite different from what they had imagined.

The other people who came here were simple, generous, low-key and neat, but with a solemn texture, showing their courtesy and respect for their first visit to the Huo's house.

This new perfume maker was wearing a fluffy white dress, carrying a stuffed animal bag that little girls liked, and her leather shoes had lace socks sticking out of them.

After saying that, she opened her bag and took out a few pink bunny bags, placed them in front of the others one by one, and finally found a seat to sit down, saying brightly: "Everyone, please don't be polite, please eat!"

A lady looked at the pink bag on the table in front of her with an awkward smile, then took a deep breath and turned her head away.

The girl opened the bag, picked up the biscuits and nibbled them, just like a hamster, so cute that it made people's hearts tremble. ——This is the description in the original book.

Shen Yuntang, who is facing all of this, just wants to beat the person who wrote this book until his brain trembles.

She smiled and said, "Miss Wen, can you stay away from my Ermano Scervino skirt?"

Wen Yanyan, who happened to choose the seat next to her, was stunned, her eyes widened like a deer.

Others: “Hiss——”

As expected, she is the woman who even Mr. Huo is henpecked. She is really strong.

The little sun-like heroine was stunned for a moment, sadness revealed in her eyes. She put down the biscuits and looked carefully at the person next to her.

She felt a little aggrieved, but also a little strong, and said, "Sister, have I offended you? We are all human beings, why should we use the price of the clothes on our bodies to measure whether we are worthy of getting along with each other?"

Shen Yuntang waited for her to finish speaking before saying kindly, "Don't think too much. It's just that the crumbs of your food fell on my skirt."

“…”

There was silence for a second.

The noble lady who had just turned her head away couldn't help but burst out laughing. When she looked over again, her expression was dignified again, and nothing had happened.

Wen Yanyan's expression froze, her face turned red and white, and finally she lowered her head in embarrassment and carefully reached out to pat the skirt of the person next to her.

"I'm sorry, I can help you wash it off."

Shen Yuntang's smile disappeared: "Take it away."

Wen Yanyan paused.

She looked up in surprise, only to see the bad-tempered lady pull out a hand towel, pat it on her skirt elegantly, roll it into a ball and throw it into the metal box for recycling towels. She seemed to ignore her and continued to discuss parenting with others.

Those people all agreed with her, and no one was willing to help her end the story.

Wen Yanyan remained silent for a long time, feeling aggrieved. She felt extremely ashamed to be left out. Brother Yun was right. This extravagant circle that kept people at a distance could not tolerate outsiders, no matter how outstanding they were.

But she insisted on giving up her future abroad and coming back just to find the good man, the big brother who saved her many years ago.

Thinking of that handsome and gentle face, Wen Yanyan's heart was filled with courage again.

Come on, Wen Yanyan! You can get into their circle! Conquer them with your perfume essential oils!

Wen Yanyan, who had been dejected just now, suddenly brightened up her eyes, as if she had found some clue.

And only Huo Xihuai discovered all this.

If there was anyone with the most complicated emotions present, it would be Huo Xihuai.

He knew this person after Shen Yuntang and Huo Yuyan divorced in his previous life.

Huo Yuyan brought this person to the hospital to see him, saying that she was a very sunny and cheerful person and might be able to help him get out of the shadow.

He still remembered the look of longing and attachment on the face of Wen Yanyan as she looked at her brother's back.

From then on, this person would come over every day and use some strange behaviors to enlighten him.

In his previous life, he had always been...disgusted with Wen Yanyan.

She takes human suffering too lightly.

She always says some empty and pretentious words, as if any suffering is not worth mentioning and can be easily resolved as long as she meets her.

She was condescending and wanted to save him, this "abnormal person".

One time, he even tricked him into riding a scooter on the road by the sea. He pushed him on the back seat and drove in an S-shape on the road, leaning the body of the scooter against the road surface. He shouted happily as he drove, "Huo Xihuai! Is it exciting? Have you found the meaning of life?"

He didn't find the meaning of life, and he felt like he was dying several times.

At that time, Huo Xihuai was already very weak and had no power to resist her. He could only let her treat him like a toy to test her energy.

The name Wen Yanyan was as scary to him as his first personality, Shen Yuntang.

…or even worse.

He didn't know which was more despairing: blatant and intentional evil, or evil that was done in the name of good intentions and left people with no right to reject it.

Wen Yanyan finally found a way to break into this strange circle. When she was about to open her small bag to look for her treasures, she found that the boy opposite her was looking at her with a silent and cold gaze.

When he noticed she was looking at him, he immediately looked away.

That gaze was so cold that it seemed as if he had died once.

She felt a little uncomfortable, but out of habit, she gave him a sweet, bright and friendly smile in return.

Brother Yun said that her smile was the most beautiful, it could melt the ice in people's hearts and make people who didn't like her like her.

But after she finished laughing, she found that the boy's eyes became colder, and even showed a terrifying silence.

Wen Yanyan was a little scared, and forced herself to look away, listening carefully to what the ladies said, trying to find a gap to squeeze in and push her perfume out.

And Huo Xihuai was thinking, here it comes again.

Whenever her smile appeared, it was often followed by some fantastic idea that could destroy his spirit.

He stood up suddenly, his breathing trembling a little. Shen Yuntang looked up at him, Huo Xihuai managed to calm down and whispered: "Excuse me for a moment."

Shen Yuntang motioned for him to go.

Then, someone at the table asked politely, "What kind of flowers are mainly grown in Miss Shen's garden? The fragrance is so nice."

Just as Shen Yuntang was about to speak, he heard a voice beside him hurriedly answering, "It's tuberose, also known as freesia. Many perfumes like to use this. It's easy to grow and has a long flowering period. It's very popular. Right?"

Wen Yanyan smiled sweetly after answering. She would be very confident when it came to professional matters. She looked at Shen Yuntang with sparkling eyes, expecting her praise. She had encountered such things many times. Those who loved to grow flowers would treat her differently when they found out that she was familiar with flowers, herbs and perfumes. Maybe this difficult Miss Shen would also get rid of her prejudice against her.

The long table, which had been lively just a moment ago, became quiet again. Everyone looked at each other, speechless for a moment.

Now Shen Yuntang has no idea what to do.

She paused for a moment as she held the words on her tongue, but finally they flowed out with a strange sense of pity.

"No, it's mosquito coils. The flowers haven't been planted yet."

Ladies: “…Pfft.”

Seeing Wen Yanyan's expression froze and gradually turned into one of shock and embarrassment, they couldn't help but raise their hands to cover the corners of their mouths, laughing more and more unconcealable.

She is a perfume maker, but she can't even tell the difference between mosquito coils and freesia, and she's a rookie in perfume making. It's so funny.

After being slapped in the face, Wen Yanyan became obviously at a loss. After a while, she suddenly remembered something, took out the sample she brought from her small bag, and said nervously: "Yes, I'm sorry, I was nervous and said something wrong. I'll use this to apologize to you."

As she spoke, she put the small bottle on the table and unscrewed it, letting the fragrance waft out. She also dropped a drop on her wrist for Shen Yuntang to smell.

"This is a new perfume I made. Master likes it very much. He said he would submit it to Master Charles for evaluation. It may appear at the perfume tasting meeting next month. I'll give it to you to try first."

Before she spoke, the ladies were speechless about her behavior of blatantly dripping perfume on her hands after she said she was going to give it to someone. But when they heard that she might appear at the perfume tasting party, their faces changed.

Perfumes that can participate in the Charles family perfume tasting event and perfumes that cannot participate have completely different values ​​and status.

If it gets the praise of Master Charles, it might become a famous fragrance collected by celebrities.

Everyone looked at the opened bottle of perfume, and their eyes changed from contempt and impatience to envy. They wished that the bottle of perfume was a gift for themselves, and they also forgave Wen Yanyan's strange behavior a little.

Well, talented people are always allowed to have some flaws.

And Shen Yuntang, who was envied by them...

A person who looked up was stunned and a little suspicious.

Why does she seem totally unexcited? Even...disinterested?

Shen Yuntang supported his chin and nodded, tapping his cheek with his fingers, still with an expression as if he was listening to what she said. Only after she finished speaking did he begin to smile.

If Huo Yuyan was here, seeing this expression, he would know that she was about to use her ultimate move and would immediately shut up.

But Wen Yanyan didn't know. Not only did she not know, she even introduced it more enthusiastically, turning this party into her trade show.

"Its finish is long and lingering, with a lingering aftertaste..."

"Miss Wen." Shen Yuntang interrupted her.

Wen Yanyan stopped and looked at her with lingering interest.

Miss Shen rolled her knuckles and smiled, "I don't use perfume that has been used by others."

As Wen Yanyan's stunned look gradually turned into disbelief, Shen Yuntang stopped smiling and continued expressionlessly, "And, did I allow you to interrupt me?"

She originally wanted to see how capable the original heroine was to satisfy her curiosity, but she didn't expect that she was just an old-fashioned Taiwanese idol heroine who couldn't do anything except shouting "Come on" every day.

What a bummer. Such a bummer.

There was silence for a moment, as everyone was frightened by her sudden attack.

Wen Yanyan was so overwhelmed by her merciless questioning that she was speechless and her eyes began to turn red.

She blinked her eyes and a tear fell. That was the sound of her self-esteem being trampled on.

She bit her lip and trembled silently for a while, then finally turned and ran out of the garden.

There was another moment of silence at the long table as everyone looked at each other in bewilderment.

Shen Yuntang said to the housekeeper: "Watch her, don't let her run around, my furniture is very expensive."

The butler seemed to be accustomed to this kind of scene. He nodded quickly and chased after him.

The others fell silent, becoming even more solemn.

...She is indeed the woman that Mr. Huo fears his wife. She is so strong!

Fortunately, they didn't offend her!

However, there were still many people coveting the bottle of perfume that she didn't want. After a while, a brave man finally spoke up first and asked carefully, "Ms. Shen, don't you want this perfume?"

She added hesitantly, "This is a scent that might be accepted at the Charles family's fragrance tasting party."

Shen Yuntang had no expression on his face: "Is it something good?"

That person: “…”

Isn't this a good thing? Her standards are too high. Is it really not because she doesn't like Wen Yanyan that she doesn't want it?

But since Shen Yuntang doesn't like it, then she has a chance to get it.

The noble lady smiled flatteringly and said, "I particularly like this taste. If Miss Shen doesn't like it, would you be willing to give it to me?"

Someone now reacted and said quickly, "Ah, Miss Shen, I'm willing to help you take it too!"

"Me too, me too. I brought a new perfume with me. I can exchange it with Miss Shen!"

Shen Yuntang's eyes were a bit hard to describe. She really disliked this quality of perfume. It was not as good as the ordinary samples that the housekeeper found for her a few days ago. Although mediocre, it was also not bad. There were obvious flaws in this bottle of perfume.

But since they wanted it so badly, Shen Yuntang was happy to have someone take care of it, so he let it go: "Whoever wants it can take it away."

Several ladies looked surprised and started bargaining with each other.

The lady who took the perfume away was very satisfied and left a card to Shen Yuntang to express her gratitude.

"My family owns a civil aviation company. If Miss Shen wants to take our flights in the future, she will be able to upgrade to a free seat with no upper limit."

Although this perfume may not be worth this much now, what if it appreciates in value in the future? It would not be a loss to do her a favor by giving her something that she has in abundance.

Shen Yuntang accepted the free gift with openness.

Others who wanted it could only watch with regret and pain as she carefully put away the bottle of perfume.

Before leaving, the lady dragged her feet and said to Shen Yuntang in private: "Ms. Shen, I have a friend who is also interested in growing flowers, but she doesn't socialize with people, so she didn't come. If you are interested, I will introduce her to you later. You should have a lot of common topics."

The lady paused and continued, "Oh, by the way, she is the queen Gu Lan who retired from the entertainment industry and got married a few years ago. You should have heard of her."

Shen Yuntang was indeed a little surprised to hear this familiar name.

She had indeed heard of this name, but not because she was some retired superstar, but because Huo Yuyan's friends said that Shen Yunhe looked like her.

Shen Yuntang nodded without any change on his face: "Okay."

The lady sighed, "She is too infatuated. If she hadn't listened to her husband and quit the entertainment industry, how could she have fallen to this point? Now those who debuted under her name have become famous..."

As if she realized she was speechless, she stopped immediately, put on a smile and said, "I'll take my leave first. Miss Shen, please stay."

After seeing off the guests, Shen Yuntang remembered that Wen Yanyan was still staying in the Huo's house and didn't know where she had gone.

As soon as Wen Yanyan left the garden, she realized that she had lost her composure.

The blow she received this time was too great; she had never been spoken to so impolitely by anyone before. She felt so wronged that she fled the scene without thinking about the consequences.

But when she ran out, she found that she was in someone else's house.

There was no other way. It would be even more embarrassing to go back now. Wen Yanyan had to look for a bathroom to wash her face. Then she could say that she just went to the bathroom.

Although you are deceiving yourself, it is better than being embarrassed by not deceiving anyone.

She quickly found a restroom, opened the door and walked in.

I don’t know how she was so dexterous, but she happened to encounter that sinister boy inside.

Huo Xihuai was originally pouring water onto his face, trying his best to stay awake and not be affected by the emotions of his past life.

He leaned on the sink, breathing deeply and hard, trying to calm his heartbeat.

I finally slowed down when the door behind me creaked open and a man ran in recklessly.

Huo Xihuai raised his head from the water and saw Wen Yanyan walking in wetly.

The hands supporting the table suddenly clenched.

The water drops dripped silently. His skin, which was already white, became even paler now, with only a red blush under his eyes due to lack of oxygen.

He just stopped and looked at Wen Yanyan through the mirror without saying a word.

Wen Yanyan was startled, and whispered in fear: "You, what's wrong with you?"

She felt that the boy was not normal and a little scary. She couldn't help but wonder if he had any mental problems. She leaned against the door and stammered, "I, I just came to wash my face."

Her big eyes blinked, hesitant and innocent.

"Are you...not well?"

"Then...do you need me to call a doctor for you?"

I don’t know which word she used triggered the boy’s sensitive nerves.

Suddenly, he revealed that cold and silent look again, like a wolf cub struggling hard before being strangled, but knowing that he can do nothing.

He stared at the person in the mirror, then suddenly opened his mouth and said word by word:

"Have you ever died?"

Wen Yanyan didn't understand at once and looked at him in surprise.

The boy looked at her quietly and said, "Do you know what death looks like?"

Wen Yanyan understood, and her face became even more frightened.

Then, Huo Xihuai said calmly in a difficult tone:

"I, die, before."

He had truly experienced that kind of painful darkness, the torture with no end in sight.

Even more bitter than his short but disastrous life.

"Right in front of you."

He didn't want to go through it again.

He felt the unwillingness brought on by the desire to survive.

"Why can you... still laugh?"

Huo Xihuai asked her.

Wen Yanyan was completely frightened. She leaned against the door, screamed with a confused mind, turned around, slammed the door and ran out.

Huo Xihuai's hair was still dripping with water, and he just stood there quietly.

He felt like he should have let out these emotions a long time ago.

But I don’t know why it has only been stimulated now.

After pouring out all these emotions in one breath, he unconsciously felt a lot more relaxed.

It was as if the iron hoop that was pressing down on him had finally loosened a corner.

The door behind him opened again not long after. Huo Xihuai suddenly looked up. His alertness was about to explode, but when he saw the person coming, he was stunned for a moment and stopped without any preparation.

"What is this for?"

Shen Yuntang was surprised, "Why did that confident and generous Miss Wen run away screaming?"

She looked at you and reasonably guessed, "Did she see you go to the bathroom?"

Huo Xihuai: “…”

Shen Yuntang chuckled, not knowing who he was talking about, "I didn't expect you to be so innocent."

Color gradually appeared on Huo Xihuai's pale face.

"By the way, how was the result of listening to your senior's teachings today? Did you fall in love with school?"

Shen Yuntang leaned against the door, his expression extremely arrogant when he raised his chin to look at him, but strangely, this arrogance was not as annoying as those cautious expressions.

"If you fall in love, go to school next semester. Don't tell me you don't."

She said that she wanted to kick him out and enjoy her life so openly that she didn't even try to hide it.

Huo Xihuai loosened his clenched hands, picked up a towel to wipe his face, and kept his head down without saying a word.

"Then take it as your consent, that's it."

Shen Yuntang folded his arms and turned away, muttering as he walked, "I'm really awesome. I solved this hot potato so quickly."

Huo Xihuai: “…”

He didn't know what his answer was.

Huo Xihuai used a little force to wipe away the water droplets on his face.

Very strange.

It seemed that he should have burst out these emotions when he just came back to life and saw Shen Yuntang, but for some reason he didn't burst out until now.

He vaguely realized that Shen Yuntang seemed to always be able to resolve his fear and anger from unexpected angles.

This is so weird.

Huo Xihuai hung up the towel with a heavy heart.

Shen Yuntang was thinking about this when he saw Huo Xihuai's strange attitude towards Wen Yanyan.

In the original book, the brothers would be impressed by Wen Yanyan later on. Could it be that they lost interest in her the first time they met?

Wow, that's exciting.

She crossed her legs and basked in the sun, thinking lazily.

She looked through the contents at the back of the original book from the system again, and felt more and more that the person who wrote this book was an idiot.

In the original book, the reason why Huo Xihuai fell in love with Wen Yanyan was that there was no creation without destruction.

At first, Wen Yanyan returned to China just to find her benefactor, but she didn't expect that after finding her benefactor, she discovered that he was already married. Yes, this benefactor was that bastard Huo Yuyan.

Gou Shishi found that she was cheerful, lively, enthusiastic and kind, and was only a few years older than Huo Xihuai. He suddenly had an idea and asked her to accompany Huo Xihuai to cheer him up and lead him out of the shadow of life.

Huo Xihuai hated her at first because he felt that this person was arrogant and had no idea what was going on with him, so she just wanted to save him on her own.

He also suffered a lot in the process of redemption.

But strangely, he ended up loving her out of hatred.

Shen Yuntang stopped at the page where he was critically ill at the age of 18 and said, "I won't read it anymore. This crappy plot is really a headache."

If we turn one more page, he will start a tragic love story and be eager to become the second male lead.

She put a bookmark at the end of the page and threw it aside. She didn't know when she would be in the mood to finish reading this rubbish.

The system said cautiously: "Ms. Shen, you seem to be more ambitious recently."

"Is there?"

Yes, the system wanted to say but swallowed it back.

Before, as soon as I saw it appear, I would call it a dog and tell the system to get lost, but now I will take the initiative to read the original book's plot.

Shen Yuntang took the glass and took a sip of the juice, not paying any attention to what the dog system said.

She just wanted to send this guy to school as soon as possible so that quality education could shape his personality and prevent him from being raised to be a sinister and tragic supporting role.

Thinking of this, she picked up her phone, quickly sent a message to Huo Yuyan, then put it down and continued to drink juice leisurely.

Less than half a minute later, Huo Yuyan called her. His voice was urgent and even a little out of tune. He asked in disbelief, "What?"

"go to school?"

"Why do you go to school if he doesn't?" Shen Yuntang said to him expressionlessly.

Huo Yuyan was speechless. He still couldn't believe it. He quickly changed his place and asked, "Why is he suddenly willing to go to school?"

From what I heard, I knew that he suspected Shen Yuntang of using coercion and bribery.

Shen Yuntang smiled and said gently, "I pinched his neck and forced him to do it."

"..." Huo Yuyan calmed himself down.

He pinched his brows and continued, "Is it a regular high school? Or a private high school?"

"Go wherever you pass the exam."

"He hasn't been to school for a long time. He can't keep up, right? Can he accept living in the school dormitory? Will he be even more uncomfortable walking to school every day?"

Shen Yuntang hummed and said, "I suggest that Mr. Huo open a new school for him, so that both the family and the school can cooperate with each other."

“…”

Huo Yuyan took another deep breath.

"I think we shouldn't be like middle-aged parents arguing over their worthless children's studies," Huo Yuyan said after thinking it over, holding his breath, "We should do a field trip."

Shen Yuntang immediately hung up the phone on him.

Huo Yuyan looked at the phone screen that was hung up: "..."

He just knew it.

This kind of thing, which involves spending energy and losing hair, is something only he should do.

After a while, Huo Yuyan unconsciously relaxed his frown.

I don't know what he was thinking about, but he suddenly laughed for no apparent reason, then quickly hid his smile, sat down at the table, and started looking through high school information seriously.

Shen Yuntang is quite amazing.

This was the second time he had this thought in the past few days.

Whether by force or by persuasion with reason, she really made Huo Xihuai change the trajectory of his life.

Huo Yuyan spent three days picking out a school and applied for admission to the senior year class. The school had a good atmosphere and a rigorous academic style. The requirement was that students had to score 20 points above the entrance exam at the end of August to be considered for admission. Otherwise, even donating a building would be useless.

After all, he has been away from school for so long, and he cannot make up for the debt he has owed in the past two years without working many times harder than ordinary students.

So Huo Xihuai was notified that he would have to take the entrance exam in August.

Huo Yuyan asked him what he needed, but Huo Xihuai remained silent.

After a long time, he finally wrote a memo under Shen Yuntang's unfriendly gaze, including textbooks, notebooks, pens, and draft paper. In the end, he hesitated for a while, but still slowly wrote down the references and tutoring for the chemistry competition that he had found.

He was worried that Shen Yuntang would ask him what these things were.

Unexpectedly, Shen Yuntang didn't even bother to take a look at it. He sent it directly to Huo Yuyan and threw the matter to him.

She really doesn't care.

If Huo Yuyan hadn't agreed to build a garden for her, she wouldn't have bothered with Huo Xihuai at all.

Huo Xihuai looked at her and lowered his head.

Shen Yuntang is different now, and he should have changed long ago.

If he repeats the path of his previous life, he will most likely make the same mistakes again.

Huo Xihuai didn't want to live only to eighteen.

He clenched his fists.

He wanted to participate again in the chemistry competition that he missed in his previous life.

He will not give up this time no matter what.

With a new goal in mind, everyone at the Huo residence became more energized and worked hard for Huo Xihuai's studies.

But things were not going well for Wen Yanyan, and she could even be described as gloomy and miserable.

Ever since she came back from Huo's house that day, she has been in a state of shock, always thinking about the boy's gloomy eyes. She was so frightened that she couldn't sleep and would be awakened even when she fell asleep.

That boy is so weird, why would he say he is a dead person?

Is he suffering from paranoia?

But why was he staring at himself?

Wen Yanyan tossed and turned, thinking.

Even more unfortunate was that Brother Yun had lost contact with her these days, and she couldn't even find a tree hole to talk to.

Wen Yanyan sighed, sat up, turned on the computer and went online.

She didn't have many friends, and only Brother Yun could tolerate and understand her unconditionally, allowing her to live a rich and stable life alone in a foreign country. Because she liked perfume, he even introduced her to the elders of the Charles family to teach her how to make perfume.

She was very grateful to Brother Yun, but she only treated him as a brother.

She always thought about the person who saved her from human traffickers when she was a child.

Wen Yanyan still remembers that the man was very tall, with a small mole on the bridge of his nose, and his nose was angular.

She was only ten years old at that time, and her brother was already like an adult.

I guess you are almost thirty now, right?

I don’t know whether he has ever been in love or has a family.

However, Wen Yanyan firmly believed that the fact that she still remembered the appearance of her benefactor brother must mean that they had an unfinished fate.

Maybe he has been single and waiting for her to find him.

That's why she worked so hard to get into the circle of wealthy families just to find some clues about her benefactor. After all, he seemed to come from a wealthy family.

Unfortunately, her first step of the plan was shattered.

Wen Yanyan was browsing the web and her eyes turned red with grievance without her realizing it.

She missed her benefactor brother so much.

Her lifelong dream is to marry him.

Wen Yanyan wiped away her tears and continued to read on bravely until she saw a front-page news item from a year ago.

The profile in the picture was too familiar, so familiar that her heart skipped a beat and she quickly clicked on it.

"Huo Yuyan, the new generation leader of the imperial capital's wealthy family, got married, and the bride turned out to be..."

Wen Yanyan's fingers and heart were trembling, and she didn't know how she finished reading the text.

When she saw the end, she tremblingly clicked on the large picture, zoomed in carefully, and observed every detail.

…

That's right.

It's him.

He is my benefactor brother.

The benefactor whom she had missed and loved for so many years and believed in like a god is now married.

Who is the bride? Who married him?

Why can't I wait for her for another year? It's only one year away.

Wen Yanyan burst into tears without realizing it. She suppressed the heartache and read the last name.

——Mrs. Huo’s surname is Shen, and her name is Shen Yuntang.

The name struck her like a bolt of lightning. She stood up suddenly and knocked over the computer.

...Ms. Shen?

That Miss Shen who humiliated her mercilessly that day?

Is she the wife of my benefactor brother... no, Mr. Huo Yuyan?

Wen Yanyan couldn't tell whether she was jealous or heartbroken. She covered her chest and felt like she could hardly breathe.

If it was jealousy, she would feel like a bad girl who wanted to destroy the family of her benefactor brother.

But……

He deserves a gentler, kinder and more sunny wife to love him.

Wen Yanyan covered her face, unable to believe that she had actually been to her benefactor's home.

It turned out that she had already met his wife and saw with her own eyes that someone had fulfilled her ten-year dream and married him in a wedding dress.

And this person had hurt her like this.

Wen Yanyan began to sob.

Her cell phone, which had been silent for a long time, suddenly rang at this moment.

Wen Yanyan didn't want to answer the call, but she suddenly saw that the caller was Brother Yun. All the grievances she had suffered in the past few days burst out at once. She answered the phone and just after calling his name, she began to cry silently.

Xie Yunting on the other end rarely spoke to comfort her.

After crying for a long time and not hearing Xie Yunting's gentle voice, she felt even more aggrieved.

"Brother Yun..." She sobbed, "Are you still there?"

Xie Yunting propped himself up on his knees and looked at the gray sky outside the floor-to-ceiling window with a dazed expression. His cell phone was on the table next to him.

He seemed to have woken up from a nap and didn't know who he was.

The memories in his mind seemed so strange, not like something he had experienced personally, and he even had to reconnect the scenes one by one.

When I opened my phone, there were only a few contacts in it, and this person was the first one.

Xie Yunting called the person and put the phone on the table.

As soon as the call was connected, she started crying.

He was still confused, and his thoughts seemed to wander far away.

It was not until he heard the voice "Brother Yun" that he came to his senses, as if something instinctive was calling him, making his muscles tense.

Xie Yunting opened his mouth and found it dry.

He repeated the word to himself for a long time before his hoarse voice finally uttered a sound.

The voice was faint, yearning and pleading.

"……younger sister?"

Wen Yanyan was stunned. He always called her Yanyan and never called her sister.

But she didn't care about these details. Her mind was full of her broken heart. After hearing Xie Yunting's response, she continued to cry.

Until she finished crying, she still didn't hear the next sentence.

It was as if Xie Yunting had set up a response mechanism only for the phrase "Brother Yun".

She was annoyed and didn't want to pay attention to him anymore. She hung up the phone, feeling sad about her spring and autumn.

Xie Yunting, who had been sitting there for a long time, finally became a little more sober.

He put those confused memories back in place, slowly lowered his head, and looked at the bloodstain that had just coagulated on his wrist.

In the quietness, he was silent for a long time.

Then I remembered that his name was Xie Yunting.

Someone knocked on the door and said, "Mr. Xie, Master Charles asked when you will return to China. He has a soulmate in China and would like to invite you to bring her to the fragrance tasting party when you return."

Xie Yunting paused, stood up, and slowly walked through the corridor and living room of the suite. With each door he passed, it was as if he was wearing a layer of outer clothing for this identity. When he opened the outermost door, the people outside saw a perfect Xie Yunting who was exactly the same as before.

He took the letter with a polite nod and said, "It is an honor to serve him."

At this moment, Huo Yuyan, who was thousands of miles away, had no idea that he was inexplicably fantasized about again, in the outrageous identity of a benefactor's brother.

I was so busy with household chores that half a month passed before I finally got them done.

Perhaps because he had resolved a knot in his heart, he finally had the time to respond to invitations from his subordinates in the company and attended a rare drinking party.

Ever since he rejected his subordinates' invitation last time, this group of people have been very cautious, thinking that they must have done something wrong and that President Huo was unhappy with them and was criticizing them.

Therefore, at this drinking party, the subordinates were extremely alert and did not dare to make any mistakes that would upset Mr. Huo.

But there is one thing that is not so good. They all drink, but Mr. Huo doesn't. If he doesn't drink, he can't open his heart and tell them his true feelings.

After three rounds of drinks, the subordinate's worries about this incident came to his mind. He put his arm around Huo Yuyan's shoulders and said drunkenly, "Boss Huo, as a man, I understand you!"

Huo Yuyan: “……?”

He was doing something, and suddenly he was hugged, embraced, and understood. What terrible injustice had he suffered that required his understanding?

He was just about to slap his subordinate's arm away inconspicuously when he heard his next words, which were like thunder in his ears and completely stunned him on the spot.

"It's not easy for Mr. Huo! His career is so prosperous, but he still has to go back to accompany his wife every month and pay taxes! He doesn't even have time to look at the person he really likes outside! Recently, there is a girl who comes to the front desk every day to wait for you quietly. When someone asks her about it, she says don't let you know, she just wants to look at you and won't do anything. We feel sorry for Mr. Huo when we hear this!"

Huo Yuyan a tree.

He was shocked at first, but soon calmed down. After experiencing the Shen Yunhe incident, he asked numbly with a distressing familiarity and calmness:

"Who is spreading rumors about me again?"

The subordinate patted his shoulder vigorously, "Boss Huo, I understand you! Why would you want others to know about this? Although the news of this girl's love has spread throughout the company, we didn't tell your wife..."

Huo Yuyan lost his calm appearance.

"...Infatuation?" He bit his tongue.
