Xia Yu nodded. He was the leader, and there was no reason for them to decide for him: "He is currently in Zeng Mina's ward."

"Mm, I'll be going. Have a good rest." Of course, Liu Sijie knew where Shen Yan was. He stared at Xia Yu for a while longer before clenching his teeth and walking out of Xia Yu's room.

Xia Yu watched him go and intended to lie down. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw the cornflowers in the vase on bedstand.

Shen Yan said that this was sent over by Zeng Mina.

She was really considerate. It was the middle of the night and the place was very remote. It must have taken a lot of thought to buy flowers.

Since she was so considerate, It didn't make sense that Xia Yu hadn't gone to see her.

Xia Yu got off the bed, wrapped up the cornflowers, and walked towards the nurse's office. After asking about Zeng Mina's ward, she went straight over.

The door was open. Zeng Mina was leaning against the headboard. One of her feet was entwined like a dumpling. She threw the cherry into her mouth with one hand and talked on the phone with the other. When she looked up, she saw Xia Yu standing in front of the door and quickly finished the cherry in her mouth.

"That's it. I'll deal with you when I get back!" She hung up the phone, then hugged a large bowl of cherries as she angrily looked at Xia Yu.

Xia Yu strolled in.

Zeng Mina took a tissue and wiped her hands. "Can you get off bed now? Shen Yan said it is really serious. In fact, you are acting in front of the president to show your pity! "

After bullying Xia Yu, Zeng Mina was in a very good mood. Her attitude was rather vile, but her words didn't sound too repulsive.

Xia Yu wasn't angry. She placed the flower in her hand onto the bedstand, lowered her upper body, and moved closer to Zeng Mina.

"I'm not a movie queen. Why am I acting? I'm just here to verify something with you! "

"What is it?"

"About you and Young Master Yan …" Xia Yu shot a glance at Zeng Mina. In front of her was a bowl of cherries that had just been washed. The cherries were blood-red as they were gathered together. There were even small drops of water on them.

She purposely did not finish her sentence. Her expression was clearly full of meaning.

Zeng Mina was not comfortable because of being watched by Xia Yu. The first time she saw Xia Yu was in Shen Mo's office. Xia Yu was wearing a white shirt and a black skirt. Her makeup was very light. Other than a wristwatch, she didn't have any other accessories on her body.

The outfit looked simple, but she was definitely not ordinary.

At first, Xia Yu gave Zeng Mina a cold and lofty feeling. But Zeng Mina was not annoying because she had seen many cute and playful bitches since she was young. On the other hand, Xia Yu, who was not flattering, made Zeng Mina admire her more.

However, after having interacted with her a few times, Zeng Mina was somewhat afraid of Xia Yu's gaze. Her eyes looked calm and harmless, but she seemed to be able to shoot an arrow from her eyes at a critical moment.

Like now, Xia Yu stared at her, and she felt as if her clothes had been stripped off and there was nowhere to hide.

"I have nothing with Shen Yan."

"There is a rumor that Young Master Yan has a crush on Miss Zeng. I thought you was touched and took the initiative to take a walk with him in the rain." Xia Yu imagined such a scene. A handsome man and a beautiful woman were walking with the poetic romance. It was intoxicating.

Zeng Mina was startled as she instinctively replied, "You are speaking nonsense. It's not the truth."

Xia Yu was still calm: "If this has nothing to do with romance, then why did you ask Young Master Yan to do it? Could it be that Young Master Mo asked you to make an appointment? He already knew that the meeting of the board was going to be held tonight, so he deliberately made Shen Yan absent? "

"It's not the truth. You...you, get out!" A trace of fear flashed through Zeng Mina's eyes. Even Shen Mo did not know about the meeting of the board that night. She only heard about it from the Old Madame's personal assistant.

She felt that this was a good opportunity to directly beat Shen Yan. So she planned to lure him to the Bamboo Fence. But now, this woman wanted to pull Shen Mo into the water. This was something that she absolutely could not allow.

Compared to Zeng Mina's panic, Xia Yu was calm and composed, "It's not a private relationship, nor framing Young Master Yan. Why did you make an appointment with Young Master Yan for no reason? You have to know that you are now his future sister-in-law. You have to have a reason to meet Young Master Yan even if you take the risk of humiliating Young Master Mo, right? "

In the face of Xia Yu's confident words, Zeng Mina was momentarily at a loss for words.

After mumbling for a long time, she said, "Isn't it because of you? What grudge do I have with you that you have to make things difficult for me? I asked him to meet because I wanted him to act as a go-between for us. "

Alright, this could be considered as a reason. Xia Yu nodded: "So that's the case, but your explanation is too far-fetched. You are the future wife of the Eldest Young Master, and I am an ordinary employee. Even if I manage to convince myself that this is true, do you think the Old Madame will believe it? "

"You …"

Zeng Mina had nothing to say. It would be normal if Xia Yu ingratiated her. But making things difficult for her, was she courting death?

There was nothing to say? Xia Yu snorted lightly, "With your past relationship with Young Master Yan, I'm afraid the Old Madame will directly believe that you and Young Master Yan have a private relationship. Young Master Yan is also the grandson of her, so she will not say anything. But what about Young Master Mo? Will he still marry a woman who is involved with his brother? "

Zeng Mina knew better than anyone how hard it was for her to coax Shen Mo into marrying her. Not to mention Shen Yan, he would never tolerate any other man who had rumour with her.

If she couldn't be Shen Mo's wife, what was the point of her doing such a thing?

What was this woman trying to do? Her expression turned uglier and uglier as she said, "Xia Yu, if you keep spouting nonsense, I won't let you off."

“Even if I don't spout nonsense, you won’t let me off.”

A trace of ridicule flashed across Xia Yu's eyes. With a calm voice, she said, "Miss Zeng, I just have time to analyze the situation. Don't worry, my mouth is really tight. I will forget about it the moment I step out of this door. But whether others will forget or not, I do not know. "

Xia Yu's meaning was very clear. She was an employee of Shen's company. In order to keep her job, she could pretend to be deaf and mute. What about others?

When Shen Yan met with her at the Bamboo Fence, He should have a reasonable explanation for missing the meeting of the Board of Directors. Either Zeng Mina was involved with Shen Yan, or Shen Mo had colluded with Zeng Mina. Both of which were not what Zeng Mina wanted.

Xia Yu had given her these two results. But Zeng Mina had the third one, She lifted her proud head and looked at Xia Yu very carefully.

She was just a lowly secretary, following Shen Yan for the sake of money. Now, she didn't discuss with Shen Yan and directly came to negotiate with her, it was all for the sake of profit.

As long as she was greedy, everything would be fine. After Zeng Mina thought about it, her mood became much better, “Xia Yu, you are the first person who dared to extort me. You are courageous, I admire you. Do something for me, I’ll pretend that nothing happened and pay you, and you can set the price for it. Say it, how much do you want? "

    Xia Yu laughed, her beautiful eyes gleaming. "Miss Zeng is really generous. Xia Yu thanks you first. Ah, what does Miss Zeng want me to do? Let me guess first."It was good that she was interested. Disdain flashed across Zeng Mina's heart as she smiled, "If you are interested in guessing, I have no objections."Xia Yu stood up, took a few steps in the room, and turned around to face Zeng Mina."Xia Yu was involved with Young Master Shen. She was pampered in Tengfei and even didn't put the future wife of Eldest Young Master in her eyes. The future wife of Eldest Young Master thought about overall situation and took the initiative to made peace, who would know that Xia Yu could be so reckless that she got angry in the Bamboo Fence and left. The future wife of Eldest Young Master had a car accident in order to find her. Young Master Yan even delayed the meeting for her. Was it like this? Miss Zeng." Xia Yu's lips curl

    When Xia Yu returned to her ward, Liu Sijie welcomed and supported her: "You just finished the surgery, you should rest more!""I just visited Miss Zeng." Xia Yu went to bed with Liu Sijie's support.Liu Sijie even carefully covered her with the blanket: "Is Miss Zeng alright?"He only asked casually, but in his heart, he was wondering, the reason Xia Yu entered the hospital was because of Zeng Mina.With Xia Yu's personality, she didn’t stab Zeng Mina was already good enough. He was surprised that she took the initiative to see her."She is fine. She was eating cherries and chatting with her friend on the phone when I got there." Xia Yu only told him what Zeng Mina was doing when she got there, but she didn’t say what kind of expression Zeng Mina had on the face when she left.If she said it, Shen Yan would not be able to stand by the window and watch the night scene so casually.Xia Yu lifted her hea

    Seeing Shen Yan, Zhuo Jiamin was also surprised. Her beautiful eyes stared straight at him: "Young Master Yan, the one who is injured is your future sister-in-law.""Does Miss Zhou mean that it is well-deserved that someone else's child got injured?" It was unknown when Second Madame walked in. She patted Shen Yan's arm and said, "Loose it. If someone continues to falsely accuse you of molesting her, you won't be able to explain."Shen Yan then shook off Zhou Jiamin's hand, causing her to take two steps back. Zhou Jiamin's hand was probably hurting from being grasped. She touched her wrist, stared at Shen Yan twice. Then she turned and smiled at Second Madame."Second Madame, our Mina is a big star. Do you know how many works she will miss due to this injury? Can this slut afford to pay? "Zhou Jiamin wouldn’t let it go. The Second Madame did her best to control her temper, but her expression was already not good.

    "Does she dare to shame my brother if she has no guts?" Shen Yan squinted his eyes slightly. He was thinking. If Fang Yuan dealt with today’s matter, how would she handle it?The news of Xia Yu throwing her resignation letter on Young Master Mo's face had spread all over Shengda.Young Master Mo had probably never been so embarrassed before. Liu Sijie laughed and pointed to the direction of Zeng Mina's ward: "I'll go to get Xia Yu's phone."Shen Yan nodded and directly walked towards Xia Yu's ward. He still owed Xia Yu a "thank you", right?"Xia Yu, thank you for today’s matter!" He thanked her seriously.But why did Xia Yu feel that those words from the dignified Young Master Yan sounded funny? She was stunned for a few seconds before reacting.She pursed her lips, "It's boring. Don't just talk. It's better if there is some benefit."Why was this girl so philistine?Shen Yan looked her

    In the ward, Xia Yu leaned against the sickbed, while Shen Yan sat on the chair by the bed. The two of them did not speak, and just sat there.Shen Yan's gaze landed on Xia Yu's face, and the fox eyes narrowed slightly.Zhuo Jiamin's slap was not a light one. She had made crystal nails, causing Xia Yu's face to swell up. In the middle of the red mark, a few streaks of blood were cut out by nails.Shen Yan watched as his chest tightened for no reason, and the tip of his finger lightly touched her cheek.Xia Yu felt the tip of his finger, and she lightly hissed."Pain?""No!" Xia Yu hurriedly turned her face away. Her voice was obviously stiff and cold.Shen Yan's hand was still held in the air, but the alienation in Xia Yu's words made him feel as if a feather was scratching his heart, making his heart itch. He wanted to take a step forward, but he didn't know how to let go of this impulse.That scene seemed to have

    "Miss Xia, do you have any other instructions?" Aunt Wu did not leave immediately after settling Xia Yu down.After all, this was the first time that Young Master Yan had brought back a woman to stay overnight. Even if Young Master Yan had explained that she was his secretary, Aunt Wu still felt that she was very unusual.One of the most powerful skills a servant had was good eyesight. Without the ability to read people's expressions, it was impossible for one to stay by the side of the eccentric Young Master Yan for so long.Xia Yu laughed tiredly: "Aunt Wu, you can call me Xia Yu or Xiao Yu. Sorry to trouble you so late. I'm fine now, you could go to rest.”"It's no trouble at all. I'll be downstairs. If you need anything, just call me." Young Master Yan said that she just had surgery and now she was exhausted, she really needed to rest.Aunt Wu closed the door and go downstairs after a few words. When she reached the corner,

    Shen Yan couldn't help but laugh when he thought of this. He pinched off a small part of the cigarette in his hand, put on some clothes, then left the room and went downstairs. He suddenly raised his head. In the bright living room, a slender figure was sitting on the sofa.In that instant, the flowing light spun. It looked like a dream.You thought you were alone, but there was someone sitting there silently. Her hair was made up a bun, her head bowed, a few strands of bangs falling and making a shadow over her face.Shen Yan felt something was pulling his heart.So she was still here.So he wasn't alone tonight."Still awake?"Xia Yu raised her head, "Your look of getting angry is really scary!"She sitting here and waitting for him was only for saying this? Shen Yan raised his eyebrows, "Oh, it looks like you remember me!"Shen Yan returned to his cynical and playful manner. This “remember” seemed

    Shen Yan turned off his phone, smiled and said to Xia Yu, "Are you hungry?""I’m alright." She had been a little hungry before, but now she was not, and wanted to rest earlier."I'm hungry, come and eat with me." Shen Yan did not call the servants, and directly took the food from the fridge, and put them into the microwave.It seemed that he ate erratically, or else the food would not be so well-prepared.Well, eat with him.Xia Yu helped him to place the hot food on the table.Just as she sat down, Shen Yan said, "Drink some wine."He wanted to drink in the middle of the night? With whom? He alone? Xia Yu had lots of inner thoughts, but in the end, only some simple words came out of her mouth, "where is it? I'll get it for you. "She stood up again. Shen Yan looked at her.What was his mood at that time? He felt a little joy, a little relief, and even a little pride.Shen Y

    Shen Yan was on the way to the airport when he received a call from Old Madame who asked him to attend the meeting in headquarters. He was surprised when he heard Old Madame's voice as she finally woke up and could still hold a meeting, which meant that she was in good health.While would it be okay for her to work so hard after just leaving the hospital? Shen Yan was deeply worried.He opened the door of the meeting room, and saw that the directors stood up to greet him warmly.Shen Yan had never been treated like this, so he was really flattered. However, he was not in the mood for that. He looked at Old Madame, only to see that she was talking and laughing with Yang Weiye and President Ning, not like someone who had just woken up from a coma at all.As Shen Yan wondered, Shen Mo also came in. Seeing Shen Yan standing at the door, he asked, "Didn’t you go to T city?"He was really well informed. Shen Yan smiled sligh

    "Miss Zeng, come to visit Xiao Man again?" Shen Yang smiled and took two steps to Zeng Mina's side, stopping at the point three steps away from her, "If Xiao Man knew she was exploited by you like this, what do you think she would do?"Zeng Mina's face changed instantly, "Miss Shen, I don't know what you are talking about?"Shen Yang’s smile didn’t change and continued, “It’s okay you have no idea, as long as Xiao Man and Zeng Quan knew it.” After this sentence, Shen Yang didn’t look at her and turned to Shen Qiang directly, “Xiao Qiang, go to ask Xiao Man and Zeng Quan out.""Shen Yang, you can't do whatever you want since it's my place." Seeing Shen Qiang rushing inside where she hid Xiao Man, she suddenly panicked.She thought that she hid so well that even Shen Mo didn't find out this place. Unexpectedly, it's the elder who had better tricks, since Shen Yang even figured it out. No wonder she beat the two brothers of the Shen f

    "You see it through?" Shen Yan exhaled and said.Liu Sijie was half choked and didn't speak until he coughed to ease, "It's so obvious. How couldn't I see it through? Am I supposed to go to hell like Chen Wenxuan if I couldn’t see it?""Chen Wenxuan that bastard didn't suffer enough. He did so many evil things but he was still attended at last." Upon thinking of him, Shen Yan got angry. Why should he leave such big trouble behind?"Are you still harassed with it..." Liu Sijie started to assail him with questions."Am I that kind of person?""Then that's because there's a sore in Xia Yu's heart."Shen Yan, putting on a gloomy face, didn't say anything. He viewed the documents in front of him, wrote his signature quickly on it and threw it to him, "Get out!""I won't!" Liu Sijie directly sat onto the table and learnt forward to ask Shen Yan, "Tell me, what happened to you two?""Sam

    Since Shen Mo invited her in person, Xia Yu decided to go and see what he was going to say. Shen Mo was indeed famous as Director Cold of S city because he directly chucked Xia Yu a contract."This is?" Xia Yu opened it and found it was a contract of catering. Shen Mo had an ambition. He wanted to cooperate with Ruyi Tower to make a monopoly of the catering market in S city."I talked it to Shen Yan earlier. He said he would think about it." Shen Mo said in his typical tone."I know you always want to expand your business. Why not think about cooperating with me? Rather than wasting time and strength looking for finance and investment, which you have to shoulder the loss and give them extra dividends, we can work together, without any loss, to have dividends of...." Li Dachang was raising three fingers.Seeing the three fingers, Xia Yu felt like laughing, "Isn't there one billion on the contract?""3 to 7, you have 3 w

    "Zeng Mina came back for Xiao Man. After all, she had helped Zeng Family a lot. After she came back, she found me and asked me to give Xiao Man to her. To be honest, I was also looking for that woman, but I never got her news. I only found the tape of her being raped. Anyway, that thing was useless to me, so I gave it to her." It was rare for Shen Mo to say a lot."Why couldn't she be found?" Xia Yu murmured."I'm not a superman. It also took a long time for me to find Brother Hu that time after they hid. It will take time." Shen Mo glanced at Xia Yu, frowning.His words made sense, so Xia Yu nodded, "So why are you here?""I want to talk to you about our Shen Family." Shen Mo said directly. He believed that Xia Yu would not mind his directness. All she and Shen Yan needed was a marriage certificate at this time, and they would probably get it the next day if they liked."You'd better talk to Shen Yan. I'm sorry. I hav

    "You ask me where she is?" Zeng Mina smiled, and the scar on her face looked more terrifying, "Why not ask Young Master Yan?""Where is Xiao Man?" She repeated, her voice firmer this time.Zeng Mina, who had already turned a cold face, laughed again then. She walked towards Xia Yu's chair, and said, "If you didn’t wanna ask Young Master Yan, you could ask Young Master Mo."Xia Yu steadied her breath."You should not call me here just to show me this video, right? Where is Xiao Man? What are you going to do?""You wanna see her? She has been tortured by you like this. Do you still want to revenge yourself?""Zeng Mina, what do you mean? You think I did that to Xiao Man?""Hah..." Zeng Mina laughed again. She picked up the kettle slowly and poured herself a glass of water, taking a sip, "I didn't say that.""So where is she?""Don't you understand? The video I just show

    Xia Yu didn't expect to receive a call from Zeng Mina, whose voice was still as sweet as before, "Xia Yu, you didn't expect I would call you, did you?""Indeed I didn't. How's it going?" When Zeng Mina was about to awake when she left. After so long in the United States, she should have become better, as Xia Yu guessed."Not bad. I'm back home, so I want to ask you for a meal." Zeng Mina's tone was calm."Em... I guess I would not go." Xia Yu was very busy recently, so she wanted to refuse."Why don't you do me the honour of having a meal together?""No!""Fine, let's just meet where I invited you for the first time."After that, Zeng Mina hung up the phone without waiting for Xia Yu to reply.At that time, the sun was about to set, leaving a slight ray of light in the room. Zeng Mina's face, which just underwent an operation, looked horrible under the red light.Xia Yu didn

    Shen Yan gently twisted her earlobe from behind and asked, "Are you dazed again?"Xia Yu didn't say anything. Because she was seated with her back against Shen Yan, he couldn't see her expression, only thinking she behaved abnormally tonight.Passion gradually subsided into reason. Shen Yan touched her back with his hand and asked, "Still thinking about Chen Wenxuan?"Hearing that name, she finally reacted, propped up from the bed, picked up his blue shirt on the ground and put it on....Shen Yan took out a cigarette and lit it up, then threw the lighter on the bedside table. Xia Yu still turned her back to the man behind her, and Shen Yan watched her back, slowly blowing smoke rings.A word came from her sober mouth, "Did you ever feel particularly scared?"Shen Yan didn't expect her to ask this question, but there really was. Who didn't have? Just when Xia Yu disappeared two days ago, he felt particularl

    "Wanru?" Xia Yu called her tenderly."Ah, you finally think of me?" Wanru curled up her lips and then sent some food into her mouth with the chopsticks."Wanru, actually..." Zhou Yan knew that she felt uncomfortable in her heart but things were not always black or white."In fact, I don't care who is with Young Master Yan. That is his aunt and that is his brother, isn't it?" Wanru said annoyingly."Wanru, Shen Yan doesn't want to suspect his aunt. However, President Zhang is Shen Mo's man and Shen Mo is his eldest brother. If he had something to ask for Shen Yan's help, Shen Yan couldn’t turn down." Xia Yu also knew that Zhang Hanyu asked Shen Yan out this time possibly because of Shen Yang.Xia Yu's instinct told herself that Shen Yang wouldn't poke her finger into it. But, instinct sometimes could be mistaken. For instance, she chose to believe Chen Wenxuan but it turned out that Xia Yu was wrong."Yeah,
