Everyone wasn't in a very high mood. They simply welcomed Su Man, explaining that she had been under a lot of work pressure lately, and it was good to have someone come in to share the burden.
After a brief meeting, everyone rested at their respective workstations. Su Man's seat was quite close to Chen Yan's, and she could see Chen Yan's office just by looking up.
She tried several times to find time to chat with Shen Yan, but Shen Yan was always on the phone making calls.
This caused all her little schemes to be extinguished.
weekend.
Chen Yu booked an afternoon flight, arriving late, and Shen Yan promised to pick her up.
As a result, even after half an hour of getting off the plane, she still didn't see Shen Yan at the airport entrance.
She was so angry that she called Shen Yan.
It turned out that a girl answered the phone...
Chen Yu's mind went blank at that moment. She never imagined that Shen Yan would let any girl other than her touch his phone.
Who are you?
"I'm Mr. Shen's colleague. May I ask who you are?"
"Let him answer the phone."
"Mr. Shen has had too much to drink and is resting at home now. Call me again tomorrow if you need anything."
Su Man slammed the phone down.
One hour ago.
Shen Yan was about to set off to pick up Chen Yu, but was stopped by a dinner arranged by his boss.
He had set a time limit, intending to leave immediately after finishing the meal. However, the other party started praising Shen Yan excessively and even offered him a toast. Shen Yan's alcohol tolerance was already low, and even after being away for so long, it hadn't improved.
It was Su Man who took on the task of taking him back.
Chen Yu gripped her phone angrily; her anger was about to burst forth.
Who is this Su Man? How come Shen Yan has never mentioned this colleague before?
She knew all of Shen Yan's colleagues.
Chen Yu angrily called Jiang Yang.
This young master just happened to be bored.
Half an hour later.
Jiang Yang drove to the airport entrance and his first question was, "Where's Shen Yan? Why didn't he come to pick me up?"
Chen Yu's face was ashen. She told Jiang Yang to hurry up and take her back. She wanted to see what kind of woman this was, daring to step into her house.
Seeing Chen Yu's expression, Jiang Yang didn't dare to press further and instead accelerated, driving Chen Yu home in just over 20 minutes.
"Don't go, come up with me."
Jiang Yang, who was left behind, was stunned for a moment, but still obeyed Chen Yu's words and accompanied her upstairs.
Jiang Yang was already prepared to notify Huang Xiaoni at any time.
Chen Yu opened the door to her home heavily.
Su Man, who had just finished wiping Shen Yan's face, heard the door open and hurriedly ran downstairs.
Upon seeing Chen Yu and Jiang Yang, her first reaction was to act like the lady of the house, asking who they were and why they were just entering someone else's home.
Chen Yu almost laughed out of anger.
"Sister, this is my home. Would you like to see the property certificate?"
"Who...who are you?"
When Su Man heard what the other person said and learned about the password to enter, she instantly lost confidence.
"I haven't even asked who you are yet!"
Chen Yu and Su Man were talking loudly, waking up the drunken Shen Yan. He stood up and walked out, sobering up a bit but not completely. When he saw the scene, he was stunned for a moment, and his mind began to recall what had just happened.
"She's my colleague; she brought me back."
Shen Yan pinched his brow, feeling a headache coming on, and almost lost his balance. Su Man helped him up.
"You had a woman take you home?"
Chen Yu's questioning was stern, and Jiang Yang, standing beside her, didn't dare to breathe loudly. He took out his phone and sent a message to Huang Xiaoni asking for help.
"Don't be so sensitive, she's just an ordinary female colleague."
Hearing Shen Yan say this, Su Man understood; this woman seemed to be Shen Yan's girlfriend...
"Mr. Shen, I'm sorry, I didn't know your girlfriend was there. I'll go back now."
"Um."
Shen Yan's cold and indifferent reply chilled Su Man's heart to the bone. She had originally thought that Shen Yan was single.
She apologized to Chen Yu, grabbed her bag, and quickly left the house.
Jiang Yang very sensibly turned around and left.
Chen Yu walked straight to the sofa and sat down, crossing her arms and looking at Chen Yan with a serious expression.
"Don't be angry. I didn't know I suddenly had a dinner invitation, and I couldn't refuse."
Shen Yan sat down next to Chen Yu and gently comforted her.
But Chen Yu felt somewhat disappointed and a little wronged. Even if Shen Yan had a dinner appointment, he should at least have told her in advance. She had been waiting at the airport entrance for a full half hour.
"I called you, but you didn't answer or reply to my messages, leaving me to wait there like an idiot."
"Can't you take a taxi yourself? Don't you have the ability? I'm very busy."
His stern face was full of impatience, and his words were exceptionally hurtful. Chen Yu looked at the man in front of her and suddenly felt at a loss for words. She sighed, turned around, and went upstairs.
After Chen Yu finished showering, she went into her room and locked the door. Shen Yan spent the night downstairs.
He caught a cold the next day and sneezed incessantly at the company.
Su Man made him a cup of cold medicine and apologized, saying that if she had known he had a girlfriend, she wouldn't have taken him home.
Shen Yan waved his hand and said it was nothing.
Su Man didn't continue the topic, but instead changed the subject to their work project. The two shared their thoughts and discussed the core points. Through Su Man, Shen Yan gained more knowledge and understood many things that he couldn't understand before.
The level of professionalism has become more pronounced.
Chen Yu stayed home all day and didn't go out. She submitted her resignation to the company, which will take two days to be approved.
She sat on the sofa at home, her mind racing, still thinking about yesterday's events and Shen Yan's words. For a moment, she felt like she didn't recognize Shen Yan anymore.
night.
Shen Yan treated everyone in the group to dinner, and they didn't leave until almost nine o'clock.
He asked someone to give Su Man a ride home before driving back himself.
On the way, I came across some roasted chestnuts that Chen Yu loves, so I bought a bag to take home. When I got home, I found that Chen Yu wasn't in the living room, and the door to her room was locked.
A surge of anger suddenly welled up inside him, and he pounded on the door. "Chen Yu, open the door!"
Chen Yu inside heard it, but ignored Shen Yan's desire and stayed under the covers playing on her phone.
Why are you still angry? Isn't this all over?
Shen Yan's voice gradually became more agitated. He couldn't understand why Chen Yu was still so immature, even though he was already busy enough.
"Can't you be a little more sensible?"
He knocked on the door again, and those were the last words that enraged Chen Yu.
She opened the door. "I'm being unreasonable? Your colleague is reasonable, go talk to her, okay?"
After saying that, she slammed the door shut.
Chen Yan stared in disbelief at the door opening and closing, and in anger, he threw the roasted chestnuts into the trash can.
For the next few days, Shen Yan did not go home; he either slept in the office or stayed in a hotel.
