Ten Thousand Soul Banner: Deceased, do you have any unfulfilled wishes? Chapter 461: Every Word Pierces the Heart

Shen Siyuan had just returned to the office after lunch when Wei Suhua ca up to him.

"So, did you ntion it to President Ruan?" She looked expectant.

"Uh..."

"You didn’t forget to ntion it, did you?" Wei Suhua said with a look of disbelief.

"Haha, just kidding with you, I already spoke to President Ruan. She said you can go see her this afternoon."

"Thank you, Brother Shen." Wei Suhua directly bowed to Shen Siyuan.

"I’ll get the script organized now," she said happily, preparing to go back to her seat.

"She just said to go to her office, she didn’t necessarily agree to it."

"That’s okay, being prepared doesn’t hurt."

Shen Siyuan gave her a thumbs up and didn’t bother her further.

Shen Siyuan noticed fixing computers seed to co in waves. He was busy all morning without a break but had nothing to do in the afternoon.

"You’ll get used to it; computers are not that easy to break. Most issues arise from improper use," Long Shihai said.

Having nothing to do was always good, just right for slacking off.

Until the end of the workday, he didn’t leave the office. During this ti, Wei Suhua ca back excitedly, saying President Ruan had agreed for her to go abroad, then she grinned at Shen Siyuan and asked with a mysterious look.

Hong Wenqing and Shen Siyuan had arranged to et at a place called Blue Note.

When Shen Siyuan arrived, Hong Wenqing and soone else were already there. Seeing Shen Siyuan co in, Hong Wenqing stood up to greet him.

Luo Gaoyuan was craning his neck, looking downstairs through the glass.

"Such a fancy place, you’re going to bleed a lot tonight," Shen Siyuan joked.

Earlier, on the way, Taozi had ntioned this place was pretty expensive.

Even Taozi thought it was pricey, so it must be.

"Luo Gaoyuan’s treat, order whatever you want, don’t be shy."

Shen Siyuan smiled and nodded.

Hong Wenqing whispered in Shen Siyuan’s ear, "I couldn’t turn it down, honestly, you didn’t have to co."

"Just giving you so face, thanks for all the gaming gear."

"On that note—when’s the last ti you logged on?"

"Only about a month or two ago."

Shen Siyuan thought, who still plays those online fake immortal cultivation gas when I’m actually cultivating in real life?

"You not being online makes it boring. I’m planning to sell my account."

As they were talking, Luo Gaoyuan suddenly said, "I just saw President Ruan downstairs. Did she co too?"

"Nice eyes."

Shen Siyuan complinted, then explained, "I can’t drive, she gave a ride."

Upon hearing this, Luo Gaoyuan’s face turned grim as if he had swallowed sothing unpleasant, while Hong Wenqing subtly gave Shen Siyuan a thumbs up.

"A grown man, and you can’t drive?" Luo Gaoyuan finally managed to say.

"With Ruan Hongzhuang giving rides, why would I need to learn to drive?"

Hearing this, Luo Gaoyuan was almost mad with anger, while beside him, Hong Wenqing was nearly dying of laughter internally.

A woman he painstakingly pursued with no success was so easily in reach for the other person, who seed not to care—that was like stabbing him several tis.

However, Luo Gaoyuan still maintained so composure, taking deep breaths to calm his inner fury.

"She probably hasn’t had dinner yet. Why don’t we invite her to join us for dinner?"

He thought to himself, hoping to ask Ruan Hongzhuang properly what he lacked compared to this man.

In the morning, he was so angered he left hastily, only to regret it more as ti went on, feeling countless things and emotions went unexpressed.

"No need. She’s out shopping with Taozi," Shen Siyuan declined directly.

"Is she waiting to take you ho, then?" Hong Wenqing fanned the flas from the side.

Shen Siyuan glanced at him, then laughed, "Yeah, I can’t drive, so she’s taking ho."

"Mr. Shen, your charm is quite sothing," Luo Gaoyuan said.

"Just average... average..."

"Mr. Shen, what would you like to eat? Take a look," Luo Gaoyuan passed the nu to Shen Siyuan.

Shen Siyuan took it without hesitation, flipping through it.

Luo Gaoyuan kept staring at him.

But Shen Siyuan looked nonchalant, browsing the nu while chatting with Hong Wenqing.

"Mr. Shen, how did you and President Ruan et?" Luo Gaoyuan asked while eating.

He had learned so things about Shen Siyuan from Hong Wenqing.

But the more he knew, the harder it was to imagine how these two t.

In both life and work, they should be like parallel lines with no chance of interaction.

"Oh, we t through a blind date," Shen Siyuan said.

"Ruan Hongzhuang needs a blind date? Do you know how many people are pursuing her?"

Luo Gaoyuan widened his eyes, obviously not believing Shen Siyuan.

"Did you really et through a blind date?" Hong Wenqing was also curious.

"That’s the fact, believe it or don’t," Shen Siyuan said indifferently.

Luo Gaoyuan looked conflicted upon hearing this.

"I really don’t understand, but why?"

"Life doesn’t always have a reason; maybe it’s just that we were fated."

"I knew her before you, and I believe my own qualities aren’t inferior to yours. But why... why..." Luo Gaoyuan said bitterly.

At this mont, he managed to maintain so dignity, not saying anything too extre, showing he truly liked Ruan Hongzhuang. This also made Shen Siyuan view him differently.

Unlike the previous so-called senior, Yang Hongwen, who resorted to underhanded tactics. Such a person’s character was questionable.

Seeing Luo Gaoyuan’s painful look, Hong Wenqing quickly raised his glass, "Co on, let’s have a drink together."

Noting Luo Gaoyuan still looked dazed, Hong Wenqing continued, "If you truly like President Ruan, you should wish her to find true love and a good partner."

"Easy for you to say," Luo Gaoyuan downed his drink in one go.

"I’d be happy if she found true love, but whether it’s a good partner is another thing," he said, looking directly at Shen Siyuan.

Shen Siyuan raised his glass, made a toast across the table, but said nothing.

He wasn’t anyone special to Ruan Hongzhuang, no need to promise anything. Tonight’s dinner was purely for tornting soone.

Call it petty, or lacking magnanimity—who wouldn’t be protective over their partner?

"Aren’t you afraid I won’t collaborate with Red Hearts International in the future?"

Seeing Shen Siyuan looking so relaxed, Luo Gaoyuan was even more annoyed.

"Collaborations are mutually beneficial, not charity. Plus, before I ca, Ruan Ruan told it’s alright if you don’t collaborate—Red Hearts International doesn’t rely on the Luo Family’s orders."

Hearing this, Luo Gaoyuan got even angrier, "That doesn’t sound like sothing Ruan Hongzhuang would say."

As far as he knew, Ruan Hongzhuang was highly career-driven and would never let emotions affect work.

"That’s because she hasn’t t ," Shen Siyuan said.

Luo Gaoyuan’s face turned livid, and Hong Wenqing quietly advised Shen Siyuan to ease up a bit, saying every word was stabbing Luo Gaoyuan’s heart.

Luo Gaoyuan said nothing more in the end, drinking one glass after another until he got himself drunk.

When drunk, he still mumbled, "Why? I don’t get it, how am I inferior?"

In matters of the heart, who can say for sure? It’s not just because I’m kind to you, you have to be kind to .

Love is love, not love is not love, it’s not that complicated.

After eating and drinking to his fill, Shen Siyuan simply took off, leaving Hong Wenqing to grumble to himself.
