Sweet Chief Secretary - Chapter 461
“Why not?” Li Wen said with a smile. “Yang Ke’er saw that you bought a lot of children’s products and thought you were pregnant. Then she called and told Shen Yan. Accidentally, First Madame was also there, and then you got pregnant.”
“So, it’s on the news.” Xia Yu said weakly and simply shut down the video. It didn’t matter whether they talked or not, and she just ignored them.
“Uncle Xia really takes good care of you. But it is different to stay with Shen Yan, and you have to prepare for it.” Li Wen waved his head and said with a smile. Now Xia Yu should know why Shen Yan was a playboy. It was all because of those paparazzi who made rumors on him. Actually, he was a good man.
“Don’t mention him! We have broken up.” The last thing Xia Yu wanted to hear was his name.
“Then I get a chance?” Li Wen asked with a profound smile.
“Don’t joke with me.” Xia Yu frowned. “You’re not afraid of the gossip from others?”
“What gossip? Love is free. And it is not the first day when people know I love you.” Li Wen didn’t care. But he cared that Xia Yu broke up with Shen Yan because of Zeng Mina. “Do you really think that Zeng Mina had an affair with him? Although I don’t like Shen Yan who is always so arrogant, I really don’t believe that Zeng Mina had an affair with him.”
“Don’t comfort me. They were in a sweet relationship when I was a fresh person in Tengfei.” Xia Yu wanted to say that Shen Yan didn’t attend the board meeting for the date with Zeng Mina.
“Shen Yan wouldn’t love a woman as shallow as Zeng Mina. He dated her because he didn’t want to get engaged to Yang Ke’er who always likes to compete with Zeng Mina. So, he used her on purpose incidentally.” If there was someone in this world, who knew Shen Yan best, Li Wen must be the first one who knew Shen Yan better even than Liu Sijie.
He was more than an assistant to Shen Yan. He could read Shen Yan’s mind. However, as the old saying went, your biggest enemy was someone who knew you best.
Li Wen knew Shen Yan well as Shen Yan knew Li Wen. He knew that bringing Xia Yu to his own home was to irritate him on purpose. But he was still angry. Why? Because his wife shouldn’t be so close to Li Wen.
Li Wen knew that he would be irritated, so he did it on purpose. He wanted to see Shen Yan being provoked. The angrier he was, the happier Li Wen would be.
“I know why you are angry with Shen Yan. He didn’t tell you that he hid Zeng Mina. But in fact, he had a reason to do so. Though Shen Mo is unwilling to admit. Shen Yan is much cleverer than him. Whether Shen Mo will marry Zeng Mina or not, Shen Yan will win in the end. He just doesn’t want his brother to be on the wrong road.”
“He is kind, but his self-righteous elder brother’s pride can’t stand it. Madame Zeng came back. Anyway, he can’t marry Zeng Mina, so he threatened Madame Zeng, letting her cooperate with his nonsense and messing up your marriage. In the view of Shen Mo, without the support of the Xia Family, Shen Yan is no different from him. Madame Zeng agreed to Shen Mo in order to get rid of the external interference, so you were successfully fooled. Now Shen Mo must be laughing in private. Of course, I am also very happy.”
Xia Yu was still angry even if she couldn’t deny that Li Wen’s words made sense. But she was also a smart person. She understood immediately after hearing Li Wen’s words. Shen Yan did too many things and didn’t tell her, after all.
Of course, her anger was reduced a lot. She even gave Li Wen a smile. “You don’t have to comfort me while putting in so many good words before me. If you were really happy, you would not tell me all of these.”
The smile on Li Wen’s face was even stronger. “Then do you want me to tell you all of these or not, Xia Yu?”
“Don’t make jokes with me. I have said that, and I have been dating Shen Yan for so long. He is your biggest foe, and you don’t care about it at all?” Xia Yu used her hand to rub her brows.
“If I cared about it, then I wouldn’t be in love with you and chase you. Xia Yu, if you really break up with Shen Yan, you can consider me, and I am serious.” Li Wen said so with a serious face, which made her take it seriously.
“Young Master Li, thank you. I really broke up with Shen Yan, but I will not consider you and want to be friends with you. Isn’t it good?” Xia Yu pushed the car door open and got out of the car. “But thank you.”
She thanked him for what? It was his love or the truth which he told her about Shen Yan? Xia Yu, you should tell him in detail. Guessing was the last thing Li Wen wanted to do.
After seeing that Xia Yu entered the building, Li Wen drove out of the community. Zhang Peng stopped him at the gate of the community. “Li Wen, you are really a jerk. What are you doing here? You know that Sister Xia is in a quarrel with Young Master Yan now.”
“Take advantage of his illness to kill him, or what do you think what I am doing here?” Li Wen said carelessly.
“Li Wen, if you really dare to do so, I will look down on you!” Zhang Peng was so angry that he even wanted to punch him. He was such an a*****e like Zhang Hanyu.
“Will I care about that? You really take yourself too seriously.” Li Wen didn’t want to talk with Zhang Peng. He got into the car and drove away, leaving Zhang Peng there alone. He was so angry.
“I am going to kill him!” Zhang Peng pulled the door of his car open and wanted to chase him for a fight.
“Enough! Fighting can’t solve the problem. We should have a conversation with Xia Yu. I guess it will work it out if we talk with her successfully.” There was another woman in the car, Yang Ke’er.
She took out her phone and called Xia Yu. “I am at the gate of your community. Let’s have a meal after you come down. Zhang Peng is also here. Come over if you are still my friend.”
Yang Ke’er said these words without pause. She didn’t give Xia Yu a chance to answer but hung up the phone.
“Does it work, baby?” Zhang Peng showed his doubts. Li Wen played her off for so long just now, and Xia Yu was angry now. He wasn’t sure in his mind whether she would come over or not.
“Don’t worry. She must come over, based on the relationship between us.” Yang Ke’er said confidently.
Xia Yu was about to say that she had already had dinner, but she hung up the phone. She was hesitating whether to call back, but Wanru said, “Xia Yu, no matter how the relationship between you and Shen Yan is, Yang Ke’er and Zhang Peng are still your friends. Now that they kindly invited you, you will hurt their feelings if you refuse. Even if you are full, going to sit for a while and having a conversation are also good.”
Xia Yu thought that her words made sense, so she said to her, “Okay, I’ll go there. You can have a rest after taking a shower since you are tired. Don’t wait for me.”
“We got it. Xi Xi, say goodbye to your aunt.” Wanru said to Cheng Xi with a smile.
Cheng Xi said to Xia Yu obediently, “Goodbye, aunt!”
“Goodbye!” Xia Yu soon came to the gate of the community.
Yang Ke’er just saw her from a distance and said to Zhang Peng proudly, “See. I said that she would come over.” She opened the car door and let Xia Yu get into the car while speaking.
They found an elegant restaurant. Not long after they sat down, Shen Yan came over. Xia Yu looked at Shen Yan and didn’t say a word. Actually, she had guessed that he would come over.
Seeing that Xia Yu didn’t leave and didn’t drive Shen Yan away, Yang Ke’er gave a wink at Zhang Peng, asking him to let the waiter serve the food. “Xia Yu, taste this red wine. It is my father’s treasure. I took it out stealthily.”
Yang Ke’er poured a glass of red wine for Xia Yu and then poured it for everyone else.
“Xia Yu, you can’t drink now. Let me drink it for you.” Shen Yan hurried to take away the wine, but Xia Yu refused.
“Brother Yan, even if she is pregnant, it is okay for her to drink a little wine.” Yang Ke’er was afraid that they would quarrel again, so she turned to be a peacemaker at the side.
Zhang Peng also echoed Yang Ke’er at the side, “Yes, it doesn’t matter. Just drink it.”
Xia Yu put the wine on the table and said angrily, “You guys are really so good. Am I pregnant? Even Li Wen knows that it is impossible. And you guys still made jokes on me deliberately.”
“You don’t have to lie to us. Why did you buy so many toys and clothes if you are not pregnant?” Yang Ke’er saw that by herself, and she didn’t buy her words. Xia Yu didn’t admit it. Obviously, she only wanted the baby but didn’t want the father of the baby.
In any case, Shen Yan was her Brother Yan. She would not make him lonely.
“I bought those things for the kid Wanru just adopted.” Xia Yu took out her phone and showed them the photo of Cheng Xi. “Wanru said that she was lonely, and she wanted a kid to accompany her. She also thought that it was praying for Zhang Hanyu.”
“She adopted a child. I thought that you were pregnant.” It turned out to be a false alarm. Yang Ke’er patted Shen Yan’s shoulder and comforted him. She said, “Brother Yan, don’t be upset. You still have chances since you are so young anyway.”
Then they started to have the meal, but halfway through the meal, they ran across Madame Zeng and her assistant. “What a coincidence! Shen Yan. Ke’er, and Zhang Peng.”
Madame Zeng smiled slightly and greeted them naturally.
She even did it so naturally. Zhang Peng and Yang Ke’er showed a bad look on their faces. No matter what the reason was, Shen Yan had helped her, after all. But she returned the kindness with ingratitude.
Shen Yan glanced at Madame Zeng and didn’t speak. He looked at Xia Yu worriedly instead.
Was he afraid of her anger? Xia Yu didn’t know why there was a sense of happiness in her heart. She was depressed originally when she saw Madame Zeng just now. But her depression all faded away now.
“It is a coincidence indeed.” Seeing that nobody spoke, Xia Yu answered.
Madame Zeng’s sight was still on Shen Yan. Her smile on the face was frozen when she found that he didn’t look at her at all. Then she left while biting her lip. She didn’t walk too far but sat next to them.
Yang Ke’er curled up her lips and showed a scornful expression to Madame Zeng.
The speed of eating had accelerated a lot. After more than ten minutes, everyone put down the chopsticks. After Zhang Peng settled the bill, they left the restaurant. When they stepped out of the restaurant, Xia Yu looked back and met with Madame Zeng’s gaze. She lowered her head guiltily.
“No one in Zeng Family is good.” Yang Ke’er said while the two men went to drive the cars, “Xia Yu, I promise that my Brother Yan and Zeng Mina had no affair. You don’t have to listen to that woman’s nonsense.”
“Even Li Wen doesn’t believe that Shen Yan had an affair with Zeng Mina. Why should I believe it?” Xia Yu said easily while curling up her lips. She thought it over carefully and thought that it was impossible for them to have a child.
According to the temper of First Madame, it was impossible for her to allow the marriage of Shen Mo and Zeng Mina when Zeng Mina and Shen Yan had such an affair.
At this time, the men drove the cars over, and then the women stopped talking. Yang Ke’er said to Xia Yu, “Zhang Peng and I have some business to deal with. My Brother Yan will send you home. Bye!”
After saying that, Yang Ke’er got into Zhang Peng’s car and then left.
Xia Yu was not a pretentious woman. She got into Shen Yan’s car and said to him, “Send me to Wanru’s home. Thanks.”
“Xia Yu, I know that I did wrong. Can you forgive me? Don’t be angry anymore.” Seeing that Xia Yu still didn’t forgive him, Shen Yan frowned again and said, “I really didn’t have an affair with Zeng Mina. Should I make a promise?”
“It’s not necessary. It doesn’t matter whether you had an affair with her or not. The key is that I have something with Li Wen. If I really go back with you, how will you tell your mother?” She had a night of romance with Li Wen. Did he forget it?
