After Being Cyber Bullied, She Reveals Her True Identity
Chapter 297 - 297 292 He Does Not Trust HerChapter 297: Chapter 292: He Does Not Trust Her! Chapter 297: Chapter 292: He Does Not Trust Her! When leaving the city, Shen Yan still wasn’t ready to go.
Qi Si wasn’t dealing with any work on this trip; for a workaholic to suddenly drop all his work just to casually tour the mountains and waters with her was quite a surprise!
Shen Yan didn’t know how many times she had sized up the man beside her, who was propping his forehead, looking ahead.
Qi Si glanced sideways.
Shen Yan caught the fleeting brilliance in his dark eyes, and it was momentarily breathtaking!
“What’s wrong?”
“Where else are we going?”
“Do you have any other places you want to visit?” Qi Si asked.
Shen Yan said, “Mr. Qi, it’s been enough.”
Qi Si paused for a moment and then said, “You can ask for more.”
“Because of what happened that night?” Shen Yan referred to his silence that night when he rejected her.
Because he had rejected her, these past few days had been about making it up to her.
Another implication was that he wanted to accompany her to distract her mind.
Qi Si didn’t speak.
Once again, he implied agreement.
Shen Yan smiled, “Thank you, Mr. Qi, for the unforgettable travel experience. When I say it’s enough, I really mean it.”
Qi Si watched her, as if weighing something.
After a long time, he said, “I will arrange for someone to send you back to the country.”
That was telling Shen Yan that they were going to part ways.
Shen Yan hummed in acknowledgment, not saying anything else about taking her along.
Qi Si wouldn’t take Shen Yan to those dangerous places. With the expansion of these businesses, the dangers around him would also increase, so that night, all he could do was choose silence.
In Shen Yan’s view,
They hadn’t progressed to that stage; Qi Si didn’t completely trust her!
Shen Yan boarded the flight back to her home country.
Compared to the joy of the past few days, today she was unusually quiet.
Liu Su and Xiao Zhao were quite concerned.
“The boss said that he would take care of the overseas business very soon,” Liu Su thought she was worried about Qi Si.
Shen Yan was indeed worried about Qi Si’s safety.
But more than that, it was probably a feeling of loss.
Because it made her think of the first meeting, and what Qi Si said in the restaurant.
“Divorce after two years.”
Back then, she hadn’t thought about the long-term.
She felt indifferent.
Now the situation had changed; she dared not speak out her indifference directly.
What about Qi Si?
Was he always thinking about divorcing after two years?
Shen Yan pressed her brow, “Uncle Liu, do the other members of the Qi family know he has this kind of business abroad?”
“What business?” Liu Su was taken aback, then realizing, “Are you talking about the food sector? The Qi family does indeed have some food business overseas.”
Shen Yan stared at Liu Su.
“What’s wrong? If Yanyan wants to understand the Qi family business, you can ask Mr. Qi. I haven’t been involved in business matters for a long time, and I’m not very clear about the current developments,” Liu Su stated truthfully.
Shen Yan gave Liu Su another look; indeed, Liu Su didn’t know anything.
Liu Su felt a twitch in his brow, “Yanyan, why are you looking at me with that kind of gaze?”
Shen Yan withdrew her gaze, “Uncle Liu saw wrong.”
“No, just now you were looking at me with a very ‘clear’ gaze.”
“Uncle Liu, are you referring to ‘clear stupidity’?” Xiao Zhao leaned half her body out of her seat and said to Liu Su innocently.
Liu Su: “…”
Xiao Zhao added insult to injury, “I misspoke; it’s that Yanyan looks at you as if you epitomize ‘clear stupidity’!”
Shen Yan: “…”
Liu Su said indignantly, “Mind your own business.”
Xiao Zhao closed her mouth resentfully.
She wasn’t wrong, though.
Sometimes she really felt like Liu Su came off as a bit foolish.
Shen City.
After landing, Shen Yan immediately reported her safe arrival to Qi Si.
Learning that Qi Si had also just reached his destination, Shen Yan bombarded him with several safety questions, prompting Qi Si to send her a photograph.
Seeing the group of figures in white robes and the building behind them, she knew exactly where he was.
Though she hadn’t accompanied him, Qi Si’s action inexplicably soothed her.
Perhaps she had misunderstood his silence.
Back to her normal work routine, Shen Yan accepted an advertisement contract as soon as she landed.
One of them came from the Mu Family.
Because Shi Lian was involved, the Mu Family offered such benefits as well.
But these benefits did not go to their own artists; instead, Shen Yan reaped the advantages.
The next day, she went to the Lizi Building, where she spent her entire day working.
Director Jiang had organized a small gathering, which Shen Yan had declined last time, but she couldn’t refuse again.
After shooting two commercials, she hurried off to the venue of the gathering.
Although it was called a small gathering, the scale of the event was quite significant when she arrived.
All the guests for the second phase of the event had arrived, including a few investors.
The guests participating in the program held a certain status in the entertainment industry; with the investors seated among them, the atmosphere wasn’t overstepped.
It looked to be a normal gathering.
The table was large, seating about twenty people.
Shen Yan brought Liu Su along, filling up the last of the vacant spots.
Although the table was set for twenty, there were more than twenty people seated.
Hence, the seating arrangement was somewhat cramped.
Sitting down, Shen Yan immediately saw Mu Jincheng and Shi Lian sitting diagonally opposite to her.
Their relationship was that of a boss and an employee, seated right next to each other.
“Shen Yan, you really aren’t playing fair, leaving Mo Country alone to have fun,” Zhang Yu teased.
Qi Si’s grand entrance had been seen by many and had already spread.
Before she arrived, there had already been discussions about it.
Whether in Mo Country or here, Zhang Yu had heard plenty of conjecture about Shen Yan and that man’s relationship.
Zhang Yu was definitely protective of Shen Yan, and knowing her relationship with Shen Yan, people didn’t dare to be too aggressive when discussing Shen Yan and that man in front of her.
The men present couldn’t quite engage in gossiping like women.
The moment Shen Yan sat down, Mu Jincheng’s gaze fell upon her.
He had heard all the chatter and an inexplicable rage surged in his heart.
Reconfirming that there was an attractive sugar daddy backing Shen Yan, he felt even more uncomfortable on the inside.
Inside, he cursed Shen Yan over and over for being filthy.
Yet, when she sat down in front of him, he couldn’t help but follow her with his eyes.
There were moments when he even thought, if he was willing to splurge the money, could he buy a night with Shen Yan?
Such thoughts corroded his mind.
It was then that Director Jiang spoke up, apologizing to everyone, then asked about Shi Lian’s recent status.
Shi Lian smiled stiffly.
Still, under Director Jiang’s query, she narrated her recent situation.
Whenever Shen Yan’s gaze accidentally fell on her, her body stiffened even more.
She was afraid of Shen Yan!
Due to that disastrous descent, she had witnessed Shen Yan’s bloody and ruthless side!
From the moment Shen Yan entered, Shi Lian felt as if she had plunged into an ice cave!
Eventually, unable to bear it, Shi Lian ran to the restroom outside and started vomiting violently.
When she looked up, she was terrified to see a figure in the mirror, turning pale.
“You…”
Shen Yan stood with her arms crossed, leaning against the door, quietly watching her.
Shi Lian was so frightened she couldn’t speak.
“Are you okay?” Shen Yan asked calmly.
“You, do you think I look okay right now?” Shi Lian’s voice still trembled.
Shen Yan felt powerless: “The domestic situation is different from abroad, I won’t do anything illegal here.”
Shi Lian simply couldn’t believe it!
“Shi Lian!”
Outside, Dai Qiu’s voice could be heard.
