Chapter 250
Shen Yin turned and held Zhengzheng's hand, looking over to where Xu Xiuhe stood, glaring unfavorably at the young man who had asked for her WeChat.
Sensing the cold gaze, the boy who had requested her WeChat meekly put his phone away.
Shen Yin ran over to Xu Xiuhe with Zhengzheng in tow, her face full of mirth. "Don't be so fierce! He's just a student. You'll scare him with that look of yours."
Shen Yin joked.
Xu Xiuhe's jealousy was palpable, his eyes still fixed on the young man.
"Alright, let's go home. I didn't give him my WeChat, did I?"
"Zhengzheng, when you grow up, you shouldn't casually ask girls for their contact information."
"He's still young. You should teach him something positive."
Xu Xiuhe's jealousy persisted throughout the evening. After they got home, he first went to the study to handle some documents while Shen Yin gave their little one a bath.
Xu Xiuhe came in and said, "From now on, Zhengzheng will bathe himself. He's already three years old."
Shen Yin: "..."
Zhengzheng's little eyes were practically rolling to the sky.
"Were you busy in the study again?" Shen Yin asked.
"Mm, Liu Bo took time off to accompany Xiao Li'er for a prenatal check-up."
"!!!"
Shen Yin did some quick math. It had been several months since Xiao Li'er and Liu Bo got married, so it was normal.
"Are you satisfied now? This matchmaking was quite successful," Shen Yin teased.
"I feel very accomplished."
The next evening at six o'clock, Chang Zhiyuan arrived at Chen Siming's Qingfan Tower. As soon as he entered, Chen Siming could tell that Chang Zhiyuan was in a bad mood.
"Brother Yuan, what's wrong? You look so unhappy."
"I want a private room. The one where Shu Yi sat."
"..."
"Brother, do you even know which room she was in?"
Chang Zhiyuan hesitated for a moment.
Chen Siming understood that Chang Zhiyuan had no idea which room Shu Yi had been in.
"You're not going to just pick any room to fool me, are you?" Chang Zhiyuan suddenly looked up and asked.
Chen Siming had initially thought of doing just that, but after Chang Zhiyuan's comment, he didn't dare to randomly choose a room.
Fortunately, Chen Siming remembered the room where Shu Yi had been. It was the day of the grand opening, and that particular room had been specially reserved by Shen Yin for its privacy.
"Wait a few minutes. The people in that room just left," Chen Siming said, making a phone call to arrange it.
Many high-end cars were parked at the entrance of Qingfan Tower. The people coming and going were mostly dressed in designer clothes and carrying branded bags.
When Shen Yin stepped out of Xu Xiuhe's Mercedes G-Class, she attracted many glances.
Just as she lifted Zhengzheng out of the car, a familiar voice came from behind: "Sister-in-law, you and my brother are dining here too? This place is great, very atmospheric. I've been here many times. Would you like me to recommend some dishes?"
Shen Yin turned to see a man and a woman approaching. The man wore a black suit with gleaming, polished shoes. The woman had her arm linked with his, wearing an ultra-short skirt and carrying a designer handbag.
"Zhengyang, let's go in quickly. They must be hungry," the woman's voice was coy and affected.
"Brother, it's been a while. Dad seems to be in good health under your care."
"Then you should continue to look after him. If something were to happen while he's with you, I don't know what people would think."
Hearing this, Xu Zhengyang's expression changed briefly. It was just for a moment, but Xu Xiuhe caught it. He had said it intentionally to test Xu Zhengyang, and unexpectedly, his facial expression had indeed changed.
"Brother, don't worry. I'll definitely take good care of our father."
"Sister-in-law, shall we go in?" Xu Zhengyang looked at Shen Yin, his eyes appraising. He was increasingly curious about this woman. She had clearly been with Zhou Man before, so why did Xu Xiuhe trust her so much and handle her negative publicity? What was so special about her that made Xu Xiuhe so infatuated? Looking closely, Shen Yin was indeed young and beautiful, but there were plenty of young and beautiful women out there.
Xu Xiuhe seemed to notice Xu Zhengyang's gaze on Shen Yin and said, "Know your place."
His tone carried a warning.
"Brother, why so fierce? I won't harm sister-in-law."
Hearing this, Shen Yin already felt nauseated. If it weren't for maintaining her image and having Zhengzheng with her, she would have kicked Xu Zhengyang where it hurts.
"I'm not sure if I might harm you, so it's better if you keep your distance from me. I have androphobia. If I accidentally hurt you, it would be quite embarrassing."
Shen Yin turned her head and said with a smile. This wasn't an ordinary smile; Xu Zhengyang sensed a killing intent behind it.
The family of three finished speaking and entered Qingfan Tower. The staff inside all recognized Shen Yin; she was their second boss, naturally receiving polite and attentive service as they guided her upstairs.
Seeing this, Xu Zhengyang felt unbalanced.
"Where's your manager? Is this how you treat customers? Is this how you receive guests?"
Xu Zhengyang spoke arrogantly, and the woman beside him also looked at the waiter reproachfully.
"Hello, we treat all our customers equally."
"Then why is your attitude towards them so much better? Are they members? I want to become a member too. I'm not short on money."
After speaking, Xu Zhengyang sat down on a nearby wooden chair, disregarding the waiter's attitude.
"Sir, we do indeed have a membership system. The annual membership fee is 1 million yuan."
"I want to become a member."
Xu Zhengyang's tone was full of disdain. He wasn't short on money, so why should Xu Xiuhe have treatment that he didn't?
"Sir, please follow me to the inner room to process your application."
The waiter, dressed in Song dynasty-style clothing, had been trained by Shen Yin and Chen Siming to be poised and neither servile nor arrogant when dealing with people, capable of handling various situations calmly.
After Xu Xiuhe's family of three went upstairs, they went directly to Chang Zhiyuan's private room.
"Xiuhe, you've finally arrived. I've been waiting for you for a long time," Chang Zhiyuan said, holding a wine glass.
"You're at it again?"
Since after the New Year, Chang Zhiyuan seemed to have become a different person, more mature and steady, taking his work seriously and responsibly. However, he would still drink occasionally.
"Drowning my sorrows in alcohol."
"The more you drink to forget your sorrows, the more sorrowful you become," Shen Yin said.
"Sister-in-law, can you not discourage me? I'm miserable enough as it is. The pain of longing is unbearable."
As Chang Zhiyuan spoke, he actually seemed somewhat pitiful.
"Then don't think about it."
"I wish I could stop thinking about it, but I can't control myself. Why can that woman be so heartless? I could clearly feel that she had feelings for me before."
"Can you feel if she has feelings for you now?" Shen Yin asked.
