Just as she managed to relax for a mont, Shen Hongi’s thoughts turned to Li Zhiyan and He Yanrong being together, and the more Shen Hongi thought about it, the more sorrowful she felt.
Judging by how that shaless woman openly confessed to Xiao Yan, it’s possible that the two of them already...
A stabbing pain welled up from the depths of her heart. Shen Hongi suddenly had a fleeting thought: maybe so of He Yanrong’s opinions weren’t entirely unreasonable.
"I should go and see for myself."
Shen Hongi decided to investigate the situation. Lai Feifei had been following the two of them all of yesterday. Knowing Lai Feifei’s drunkard personality, she probably wouldn’t let them cross any boundaries.
With that thought, Shen Hongi no longer hesitated and set off imdiately.
When she arrived at the entrance of Century Palace, she saw Lai Feifei’s Xiaomi SU7 still parked outside, which made Shen Hongi exhale in relief.
She was just about to head inside when she saw He Yanrong walking over from the side.
"Yanrong, where have you been?"
As soon as the two t, an invisible tension imdiately spread between them, and Shen Hongi couldn’t suppress the deep-seated animosity she felt towards He Yanrong. Once close friends, an unseen rift had now ford between them.
Of course, the Shanghai Three Aunts still had a strong relationship; it wasn’t anywhere near the point of breaking over this issue.
"Feifei slept with last night. She’s probably about to wake up now. I just bought so groceries to whip up sothing tasty for her."
"What about Xiao Yan?"
Shen Hongi felt a wave of relief. If Lai Feifei had shared a room with He Yanrong, it ant certain things hadn’t happened.
There was no need to worry now.
"Let’s check on Feifei first," she said.
"Alright."
Though they appeared just like before, both won couldn’t ignore the subtle sense of unease lingering between them.
"Pig trotters, crucian carp—these ingredients are apparently quite nutritious for making soups that boost milk production."
"The baby likes them," He Yanrong replied with a smile, showing no particular embarrassnt as she entered her room.
By now, Lai Feifei, who had already dressed, had also woken up.
"Feifei, you’re awake. Keep Hongi company for while I prepare a al for you two."
After He Yanrong left, Lai Feifei looked at Shen Hongi and said seriously, "Hongi, don’t worry."
"That shaless woman clung to all night last night. I’ve kept a close eye on Xiao Yan for you."
Shen Hongi let out a soft "hmm." Feeling relieved, she also knew that Lai Feifei had her own feelings for Li Zhiyan. What on earth was she going to do in the future?
For the first ti in her life, Shen Hongi felt so lost. Perhaps she needed to find ti to have a proper conversation with Xiao Yan.
...
After receiving his wild bonus, Li Zhiyan’s savings now totaled 210,000. This filled him with an imnse sense of satisfaction.
To earn so much money in less than a month—he wouldn’t have dared to imagine it before.
And now, he had the concern of the aunts surrounding him.
He could even go ho tonight and cuddle Aunt Zhao.
Slacking off until the afternoon, Li Zhiyan went and bought a small cara, intending to gather so evidence later that night.
After clocking back in at work, Li Zhiyan was waiting for Catherine to execute her wicked plan.
Sure enough, as soon as he finished clocking in, soone called him to Catherine’s office. By now, everyone in the company was accustod to this—Li Zhiyan constantly going in and out of Catherine’s office. Most of his coworkers felt sorry for him.
He had offended the CEO’s biological son. If his life got any easier, it would be a miracle; this was the hard consequence of not understanding workplace politics.
Pushing open the door and entering the office, Li Zhiyan noticed Catherine’s playful gaze.
"CEO, shall I give you a leg massage?"
Catherine was quite pleased with Li Zhiyan’s initiative. Her ultimate goal was to make him her obedient servant.
This lowly Asian man should have absolutely no dignity in front of her.
"Li Zhiyan, no massaging today," Catherine said coldly.
"Tonight, co with to et a few clients."
"If we close this deal, I’ll give you a private bonus."
Catherine thought that offering a bonus would tempt the money-grubbing Li Zhiyan.
He would definitely agree willingly, enabling her to get him drunk later and humiliate him however she pleased.
"Understood, CEO."
Catherine inwardly cursed Li Zhiyan as a fool. He fell for it far too easily. She had originally planned to find soone to beat him up, but his combat skills were frightening.
Catherine even suspected that Li Zhiyan could take on dozens of people, just like in a movie. The only thing she dared to attempt was hiring people to give him a beating.
After all, the tis had changed; taking things too far would result in significant consequences.
But no matter how skilled he was, getting drunk would be a completely different story.
"Let’s go then."
Following the tall blonde woman, catching a whiff of her fragrant scent, Li Zhiyan felt a surge of heat through his chest. Arican won were definitely a distinct and exotic contrast to the Shanghai Three Aunts.
Catherine also noticed Li Zhiyan’s gaze lingering over her curves and figure.
This made Catherine inwardly smug.
That lowly Asian man was clearly entranced by her beauty and body. Thinking back to the ti they kissed, Catherine couldn’t stop herself from feeling a ripple of heat.
Her mind chastised her: why was she feeling this way toward a lowly Asian man? It was absolutely disgraceful.
