After Being Cyber Bullied, She Reveals Her True Identity
Chapter 208 - 208 208 Strict Wife. Qi Si annoyed by Shen YanChapter 208: Chapter 208: Strict Wife. Qi Si annoyed by Shen Yan? Chapter 208: Chapter 208: Strict Wife. Qi Si annoyed by Shen Yan? Upon arriving in Beijing, Qi Si quickly received a thank you from Shen Yan.
[I really like the flowers, thank you, Mr. Qi!]
Qi Si held his phone, his gaze fixed on these words.
He could feel Shen Yan’s joy from the text!
Did she like flowers that much?
Was she too easily satisfied?
“What are you looking at?” Sitting opposite him, Chi Boyuan, with his hand dangling half-heartedly, rarely saw Qi Si holding his phone in such a daze at an occasion like this.
That must be a daze.
Qi Si lifted his icy eyes, meeting the gazes of several friends.
He indifferently put away his phone, “Work stuff.”
“Boyuan, you know he’s a workaholic,” Wang Jue, sitting with his legs crossed, swirled a glass of red wine, laughing like a rogue.
Seeing Qi Si, Wang Jue was reminded of a conversation he’d had that grossed him out because of Shen Yan.
The taste of the wine suddenly felt off.
Damn!
Wang Jue shook himself, trying to dispel the nauseous feeling bubbling inside him.
That Shen, true to someone from the entertainment circle, could imagine anything.
“We don’t often gather here, let’s not talk about work,” Zhai Hong Shen immediately cut in, trying to break the work-related conversation, and pushed a glass of juice towards Chi Boyuan, “The injured should stay away from alcohol.”
Chi Boyuan stared silently at the orange juice in front of him.
“How’s Chi Chengyu’s situation?” Wang Jue recalled that Chi Boyuan had gone out to bring Chi Chengyu back, but they weren’t clear on the specifics.
Chi Boyuan’s expression faded a bit, “It’s been handled, won’t be a big issue.”
“That kid is pretty stubborn, keep an eye on him, don’t let him tarnish the Chi Family’s name,” Wang Jue, who knew Chi Chengyu better than the others, was certain that Chi Chengyu would eventually cause trouble for the Chi Family.
Chi Boyuan thought about how Chi Chengyu had been nagging about finding his goddess and felt a headache coming on.
The brain scan showed nothing wrong, all tests, including blood tests, were clear, and there were no hallucinogenic substances ingested.
The only explanation was that Chi Chengyu had been scared silly at that moment!
Imagining a woman swooping in to save him from a dire situation.
“How long are you staying in Beijing this time?” Wang Jue looked towards Qi Si.
“I don’t know.”
He planned to return to Shen City as soon as possible.
Seeing his demeanor, the others wanted to roll their eyes.
Just sitting here giving off a cold vibe, barely uttering a few words when asked.
The others ignored him, chatting freely about various topics.
Chi Boyuan, unable to drink, miserably sat on the side, glancing at Qi Si who was leaning on the couch working on his tablet, his lips twitching slightly.
Such a workaholic!
Chi Boyuan initially wanted to say a few words to him, but seeing this, he joined Wang Jue and the others instead.
Qi Si put down the tablet, picked up his phone, and replied to Shen Yan:[I’ll come back as soon as possible.]
No sooner had he finished replying than Wang Jue suggested going out to have fun, mentioning some pure and lovely girls at a certain place.
Qi Si picked up the tablet again, nonchalantly continuing his work.
As long as they did not cross any lines, whatever his friends did was their business.

The message wasn’t seen until the next day, Shen Yan stared at the reply for a long time, she only said thanks, the reply didn’t quite match.
It wasn’t until Shen Yan was driving back to school that she belatedly realized.
Qi Si was updating her on his schedule!
Shen Family.
Qi Si’s car had just pulled into the parking lawn when the Shen Family’s butler came out to greet him.
“Son-in-law, welcome to our home!” he said, offering an appropriately professional smile.
Qi Si’s driver opened the trunk and took out a pile of valuable goods, which the butler hurriedly asked someone to carry.
Qi Si had come on short notice; Shen Zheng and the others had gone to work, and Shen Zuo, who had not yet left, had just put on his shoes when he saw his tall son-in-law.
He paused, then turned to call Gu Ting.
“Tingting, our son-in-law is here.”
“What son-in-law…” Gu Ting came running out in slippers, saw Qi Si, and managed a strained smile, not unwelcoming but just very sudden, “It’s Qi Si! Please, come in!”
Qi Si formally greeted, “Father-in-law, mother-in-law.”
“I’ll call Shen Zheng,” Shen Zuo finally had an excuse to leave work early and he seized it.
“Why did you suddenly come to our house? When did you return to Beijing? Didn’t Yanyan come back with you?” Gu Ting bombarded him with questions as they entered the house.
“She’s busy.”
“… Next time you have a chance, bring her home too. It’s been a year or two since she last visited.” Gu Ting said somewhat wistfully.
Qi Si nodded.
Gu Ting hurriedly asked the servant to make fresh tea and instructed another to prepare a table of fresh dishes.
Qi Si mentioned he had just come to see them and would return to his work soon.
Shen Zuo suggested, “When Yanyan comes back to Beijing, let’s arrange for our two families to have a private meal together. You didn’t even have a wedding ceremony; a family meal should surely be doable.”
“I will discuss it with her.”
Upon hearing this, Shen Zuo and Gu Ting exchanged glances.
Why was it again about listening to their daughter’s wish?
They had never imagined Qi Si would be so supportive of his wife.
The same had happened when they filed for the marriage registration.
He followed Shen Yan’s wish throughout.
Facing his in-laws’ strange gazes, Qi Si endured stoically.
After seeing off Qi Si, Gu Ting pulled Shen Zuo aside, “Do you think our Shen family put too much pressure on him? Such a man as Qi Si, who would have thought…husband-controlled indeed…”
It seemed like their daughter had really lucked out!
Shen Zuo disagreed, “I also always listen to you, better than he does.”
Gu Ting gave him a slight glare, “I’m being serious here.”
Shen Zuo with a grave face, “I am too. Isn’t it good that he sides with our daughter?”
“It is good, but I worry…” that Qi Si’s agreeable manner was only a reluctant act for the sake of the two families’ cooperation.
“Other than being a bit aloof, Qi Si’s character and abilities are beyond question; otherwise, our mother wouldn’t have agreed to this marriage agreement with the Qi Family. Trust our mother’s judgment and Qi Si’s character.”
Shen Zuo, being a man, understood men better.
Hearing this, Gu Ting couldn’t help but recall Shen Yan’s resistance at the beginning, “When Yanyan broke with the family, I was so distressed I couldn’t eat or sleep… It still hurts to think about it now.”
“It’s all fine now, isn’t it? Ah Zhen said the man Yanyan liked has a girlfriend now. Once they marry, everything will be over. Why worry?”
“You don’t understand, look at the world now, divorces are frequent, and second and third marriages are common,” she worried.
Unable to argue with Gu Ting, Shen Zuo simply embraced his wife, soothingly changing the subject.
As soon as he left the Shen house, Qi Si had someone book a flight, and he headed straight to the airport.
Chi Boyuan had something to discuss with him and called to arrange a meeting, but Qi Si curtly replied, “If there’s something, come talk in Shen City.”
Chi Boyuan: “…”
Is that why he came back yesterday?
“It’s not a big deal. Next time there’s a chance, I’ll come back to Beijing for a gathering. I’m nursing an injury and can’t return to work soon. The Chi family side is also quite complicated. Next time, bring your wife over for everyone to meet. You registered your marriage without a wedding, but we should at least meet her.”
“We’ll see.”
Chi Boyuan raised his eyebrows and fell silent.
Qi Si’s response could easily make someone think he was truly tired of his wife.
Thinking about the reason behind the marriage alliance between their families, Chi Boyuan understood why he reacted this way.
