After Being Cyber Bullied, She Reveals Her True Identity

Chapter 129: Chapter 129: Is Mr. Qi Waiting for Someone? Chapter 129: Chapter 129: Is Mr. Qi Waiting for Someone? Liu Su wore a worried frown as he went to book a plane ticket.

Shen Yan turned to return to her temporary residence when Xiao Zhao, all smiles, greeted her. “Yanyan, someone from Director Li’s team came over to say that we’ll be having a barbecue here tonight!”

Thinking of the meat made Xiao Zhao so happy she could fly!

“Okay.”

“Yanyan, what’s wrong?”

“It’s nothing. Just don’t drink with the crew tonight, protect yourself,” Xiao Zhao was, after all, a woman.

Who knew if any of the crew had bad intentions?

“Yanyan, aren’t you joining us?”

“Quit meat.”

“What?”

Why on earth would she quit meat?

She didn’t have to maintain her figure, and there weren’t any pimples on her face.

Shen Yan entered the temporary rest area with what she had in her hand.

Scratching his head in confusion, Xiao Zhao called out from behind the tent, “Yanyan, you’ve been eating wild vegetables and fruits for days. I’ll bring some meat over for you later!”

With that, Xiao Zhao hurriedly walked off.

Afraid that by the time he returned, the group might have already devoured all the good meat.

Just as Shen Yan sat down and reached out to turn on her laptop, her phone chimed.

She saw a message from Qi Si.

“Someone has been arranged to come pick you up.”

Shen Yan pursed her lips, turned off the screen, and put it back in her pocket.

After a while.

Shen Yan came out carrying her luggage.

Liu Su came to call people for the barbecue, and when he saw Shen Yan with her large luggage, he was stunned, “What’s this?”

“He sent someone over.”

“Huh? Mr. Qi didn’t mention this to me.”

“Is that so.”

This time, Liu Su reacted swiftly, his face brightening, “Since Mr. Qi has sent someone, I will escort the lady outside, then return to continue the barbecue. One simply can’t refuse Director Li’s hospitality.”

Looking at the greasy skewer of meat in his hand, Shen Yan said, “I can go on my own.”

“How can that be? If anything happens along the way, how will I explain it to Mr. Qi?”

Just as Shen Yan was about to speak, her expression turned cold, and she suddenly looked in one direction.

A figure in a suit and leather shoes approached from the shadows, respectfully saying, “Ma’am, Mr. Qi sent me to pick you up.”

“It’s Ben, huh,” Liu Su recognized the man, “Madam, this is Chen Ben, one of Mr. Qi’s personal bodyguards, a retired soldier with impressive skills. You’ll be safe with him.”

Shen Yan looked over this stern-faced Chen Ben, “Uncle Liu, not coming with us?”

“Let me just enjoy a nice meal in peace,” Liu Su was in no rush to disturb their private time.

Shen Yan hummed a response and followed Chen Ben.

Chen Ben, carrying Shen Yan’s luggage with one hand, walked straight by her side, constantly scanning the surroundings, remaining alert at all times.

Suddenly, two figures appeared from the side. Upon seeing them, they clearly froze for a moment.

Chen Ben quickly stepped forward but was stopped by a hand.

“It’s just colleagues, they won’t cause trouble.”

Shen Yan saw Mu Jincheng and his manager.

Chen Ben nodded and continued to lead Shen Yan out. Next to the cement path outside, a car was parked.

Mu Jincheng’s manager exclaimed in amazement, “That’s Shen Yan right? The man with her, he looks no ordinary, could he be the rumored sugar daddy?”

Seeing Shen Yan leaving with a strange man right after the program ended, Mu Jincheng’s face darkened even more than when he had been discussing business earlier inside.

“Just finished, and she’s so eager to go off with a man. It seems she really can’t be without men.”

Hearing Mu Jincheng’s ambiguous remark, the manager gave him a strange look.

Everyone knows about Shen Yan’s sugar daddy, right?

What was he so angry about?

Besides.

Such things are common in the entertainment industry; there was nothing unusual about Shen Yan’s situation.

Mu Jincheng’s behavior gave the manager a weird feeling.

Yet he couldn’t quite pinpoint what it was.

*

The sea breeze brushed against Shen Yan’s face, as sharp as a knife.

Shen Yan had actually been able to flatly refuse Qi Si.

Yet, she came anyway.

Standing on the boat, facing the star-studded sea, Shen Yan gazed into the distance.

Ahead was the small island.

The island’s edge was embellished with night lights, combined with the phosphorescence of the sea, listening to the waves and feeling the slightly salty breeze, the mood at this moment was extraordinarily calm.

The previously slightly unpleasant emotions dissipated at this moment.

*

Qi Si had just concluded business with another group and had refused their invitation to walk out of a leisure hotel and towards the berthed dock.

Shen Yan should be almost there.

Qi Si couldn’t even understand himself why he had people bring Shen Yan over.

“Mr. Qi?”

Shen Ning and Bai Zhong were out for a walk at night and, hand in hand, reached the dock where they saw Qi Si walking alone.

Qi Si stood there, looking into the distance where a boat appeared to be approaching.

“Is Mr. Qi waiting for someone?” Shen Ning had not given up, trying to secure Qi Si’s investment in their research and also to stabilize her future in the lab.

Having the backing of a bigwig from Beijing would make her future research path much smoother.

During these few days of staying, Bai Zhong had figured out Shen Ning’s thoughts about pulling this backer.

The Bai Family in Shen City had the capability to inject a substantial amount of money into Shen Ning’s pursuits, but the labs in Beijing were out of their reach for influence.

Therefore, Shen Ning’s idea to cozy up to Qi Si was not wrong.

But Bai Zhong felt somewhat uncomfortable inside.

Because Qi Si was not only young but also handsome, powerful, and influential.

His charisma was too intense.

Bai Zhong couldn’t assure that Shen Ning, having been in contact with such a person for a long period, wouldn’t develop other thoughts.

Shen Ning didn’t get a response from Qi Si but wasn’t angry.

Such a high-level figure sometimes had strange temperaments, which was understandable.

Moreover, she had also learned some other things from Bai Zhong.

This only made Shen Ning more determined to pull him in as an investor.

On the sea ahead,

a boat was approaching.

Illuminated by light, Shen Ning and Bai Zhong saw the slender and upright silhouette standing quietly on the boat.

The cold wind fluttered her dress and dark hair, and from their angle, it seemed as if a timeless fairy was floating towards them.

Shen Yan saw the tall figure standing at the dock facing her; sighting him stirred an indescribable feeling in her heart.

The boat docked to the side, and Shen Yan slowly stepped down from the boat.

She reached the shore.

Sighting her face, both Shen Ning and Bai Zhong were stunned.

Shen Ning recognized Shen Yan immediately; she was the one Shen Ning had seen in the cafeteria at Shencheng University.

Why had she approached her at that time?

Shen Yan’s gaze landed on Qi Si as she walked closer, “Mr. Qi.”

Qi Si’s eyes swept over her quickly and he hummed in response.

“When did you come here, Mr. Qi?”

“A few days ago.”

“Did you come here for work?”

“Mm.”

“Are you not returning for the New Year?” Shen Yan asked again.

Qi Si didn’t answer her directly; instead, he asked, “Do you want to go back?”

“Wherever I am during the New Year doesn’t matter to me.” The New Year held no significance for her.

During the years she suffered, she only knew hardship and did not know when the year ended or began.

“Mr. Qi, who is this?” Shen Ning, unable to hold back, interrupted the two.

Shen Yan noticed Shen Ning and Bai Zhong—the car owners who had almost hit a child that night.

Qi Si showed no intention of introductions, and from his lack of a glance at the couple, Shen Yan knew these two were mere strangers.

Shen Ning didn’t feel awkward, seeing that Qi Si treated this beautiful woman differently and sensing an opportunity, she extended her hand to Shen Yan, “Hello, I am Shen Ning.”

Shen Yan’s dark pupils sharply narrowed, her gaze fixing intently on Shen Ning’s face.

Her heart began to beat faster, and at that instant, her expression turned exceedingly cold!
