Shao Yinan looked extremely tired today. After a quick shower, he flopped onto the bed and fell into a deep slumber.
After finishing her work, Wen Yin intended to ask him about his day.
However, she found him already fast asleep. Seeing how exhausted he was, Wen Yin silently swallowed back the words on the tip of her tongue.
Having been with him for so long, she would never doubt him over trifles.
But she couldn't help but be wary of those "flies" out there.
However, such a scheming and low - level trick was something Wen Yin had never seen before.
She tossed the perfume - scented coat aside, thinking out of sight, out of mind.
Someone was surely in for a rough morning tomorrow.
The next morning, as soon as Shao Yinan got up, he noticed Wen Yin looking at him with a hint of dissatisfaction.
She even stole glares at him from the mirror while brushing her teeth.
"What's wrong?"
Shao Yinan reached out and pinched her soft cheek, unable to suppress a chuckle.
It was the first time he'd seen Wen Yin so openly pouty.
"You know what wrongdoings you've done."
Wen Yin snorted and turned her head away.
Shao Yinan was momentarily stunned by her words. Then he pinched her chin and gently turned her face towards him.
After spitting out the toothpaste in his mouth, he asked, somewhat puzzled,
"What's going on? Did I upset you?"
Wen Yin merely gave him a long look. After they both finished washing up, she threw the perfume - scented suit into his arms.
"What's this?"
Wen Yin looked down at Shao Yinan, who was sitting on the bed looking utterly confused, as if she were interrogating a criminal.
"My... suit?"
Shao Yinan answered tentatively.
Unexpectedly, the little woman in front of him punched him hard and glared at him.
"Your suit? Take a good look. Is this really your suit?
I didn't know you had a penchant for wearing women's perfume."
Hearing Wen Yin's words, Shao Yinan finally noticed the detail he'd overlooked.
He'd felt something was off ever since he'd gotten this suit.
The suit clearly reeked of a perfume that didn't belong to it.
That cheap and pungent perfume could never be what A Yin would use.
Shao Yinan's face darkened as if he'd realized something.
He wasn't a fool.
To be honest, since he'd returned to the Shao family to take over the company, there had always been some audacious women trying to get close to him, but he'd managed to fend them all off.
"I was discussing a cooperation deal with the Lu family last night. I didn't come into contact with any women during the process. Even the secretaries we brought were both men."
"Are you saying I sprayed this perfume on you last night?"
Wen Yin raised an eyebrow.
"Let's investigate. This might be a deliberate attempt by someone to get close to you."
Shao Yinan let out a sigh of relief when he saw Wen Yin's anger fade away.
He knew A Yin wouldn't be easily swayed by such petty tricks.
Shao Yinan pulled her into his arms, nuzzling his head into her neck. His voice sounded a bit muffled.
"You really scared me just now. I thought you were mad at me and didn't want me anymore."
Hearing his words, Wen Yin pushed him away.
She pinched his face rather forcefully.
"What are you thinking? How could I ever leave you?
Do you think I'd abandon you and run away from our wedding?"
Hearing the word "wedding", Shao Yinan's eyes darkened. He pulled her tightly into his arms.
The hand around Wen Yin's waist tightened.
"Don't even think about it."
The man's voice was hoarse from just waking up. A hint of obsession and madness flashed across his eyes.
"You'll be mine for the rest of your life."
Just as his words faded, Shao Yinan felt a pair of gentle hands wrap around his slender waist. Then he heard her cold yet tender voice.
"Yes, I'm yours.
For the rest of my life."
Before they could start their investigation, the culprit showed their hand. The trending topics on the internet were filled with Shao Yinan - related hashtags—
#Is Wen Yin and Shao Yinan's relationship on the rocks?#
#Shao Yinan has an affair#
#Shao Yinan has a late - night meeting with a top - tier actress#
#Song Qingqing and Shao Yinan#
Shao Yinan frowned when he saw another woman's name on the trending topics.
Wen Yin raised an eyebrow, not expecting the "fish" to lose their patience so soon.
She naturally knew who Song Qingqing was. She used to be a third - tier actress in the entertainment industry, but in the past couple of years, her career had been on the rise.
She was now on the verge of becoming a top - tier actress and could even be considered one.
"Are you very familiar with her?"
From just this short sentence, Shao Yinan could read a million things into it. He quickly waved his hand, eager to prove his innocence.
"No, I've hardly met her. We had no relationship when I was in the entertainment industry.
I have a vague memory of seeing her last night.
But I was a bit drunk and can't remember clearly."
He was truly a paragon of male virtue.
Wen Yin couldn't help but smile when she saw him in such a hurry to explain.
"I know you'd never do such a thing. Right now, the trending topic only has a misaligned photo of you two. Try to see if you remember anything."
Shao Yinan had signed a major deal with the Lu family last night. Both of them were overjoyed, so they had a few more drinks.
He never thought that in such a situation, someone with ill intentions would seize the opportunity and take a misaligned photo.
The two people in the photo looked rather intimate.
"I remember passing by this place last night. And there was a person who wasn't looking where they were going and bumped into me. I thought she was as drunk as I was."
As Shao Yinan said this, he squinted his eyes.
So he'd been used by someone with ulterior motives.
After hearing his explanation, Wen Yin quickly came up with a solution.
"Contact the public relations department to remove the trending topics. Then contact Miss Song and have a serious talk with her."
But she saw him looking at her with a wronged expression.
"But I still feel like I haven't vented my anger yet."
Wen Yin looked at him in confusion.
The solution she'd proposed was already the best one. What else did Shao Yinan want?
She watched as his thin lips parted and closed.
After hearing his absurd solution, Wen Yin felt her face flush.
Wen Yin silently cursed.
"Shao Yinan, you're really a public embarrassment!"
Meanwhile, netizens were discussing whether the two of them had broken up, while their fans were fiercely attacking Song Qingqing.
They told her not to try to ride on their popularity, as everyone could see how much in love Shao Yinan and Wen Yin were.
Before long, Shao Yinan posted a Weibo.
