Chapter 158: I Just Meant You Worked Hard

"No."

Shi Wan: "..."

As if realizing something, she stiffened slightly and buried her head in his arms.

"What's wrong?"

He asked knowingly.

The camera wasn't turned off, and the people on the other end of the meeting clearly saw their boss lower his head and ask the woman in his arms with a doting look on his face.

They all knew that the boss was married, but they didn't know who his wife was and didn't dare to inquire.

But judging from that voice just now and the boss's eagerness to show off, his wife must be a great beauty.

Shi Wan pinched him, "Focus on the meeting. I'll take a nap."

"Okay. You've been working hard just now."

Everyone: "........!!"

Excuse me, is this the kind of topic they're supposed to hear?

Shi Wan glared at him. The man looked innocent. "I just said you've been studying hard."

Shi Wan: "........"

Forget it. There's no evidence anyway.

Everyone heaved a huge sigh of relief. So that's what it was.

But was the young mistress still a student?

The boss was such a beast!

He even had a thing for a student.

For some reason, probably because she was too tired, Shi Wan took another nap.

As a result, in the middle of the night, she couldn't fall asleep.

After thinking for a while, she entered the system to study and went through all the materials she hadn't had time to look at before.

She came out when the time was up. Just as she closed her eyes, the man beside her suddenly stirred.

He leaned over and kissed the corner of her lips, then got out of bed and left quietly.

Where was he going so early?

As soon as he left, Shi Wan had no intention of going back to sleep. She got dressed and went downstairs. She didn't see the man come down until it was almost breakfast time.

"You're up so early?"

"Not really. I have to go to school today. I've missed a lot of classes already." Shi Wan took a bite of the steamed bun. "I'm going to the capital in a few days."

"Again?"

"I have something to do."

"I'll go with you."

He picked her up and sat down in her original seat.

"No need. I'll be back in a day or two. It won't take long."

"I see..." He asked casually, "Who else is going?"

The young mistress was very outstanding. It was normal for there to be some suitors around her. He had to keep an eye on her.

He might not even know if she was snatched away one day.

"I'll go alone. You go to work as usual."

Shi Wan started to feed him. At first, it was just a try, but later she got really into it.

Shen Siyan ate everything she fed him without hesitation. He hooked his lips. "Baby, are you full?"

"Yeah. Do you want more?"

"Yes."

His words were finally lost between their lips and teeth. There was hardly anyone passing by in this courtyard, so they kissed passionately.

........

At Bishui Villa.

Ever since Shi Wan took away his shares, Shen Tianhong had been staying at home and hadn't gone out.

As soon as Shen Jiao entered the door, she saw him. She hesitated and didn't dare to go in.

Because of what happened last time, there was a rift between father and daughter. She always tried to avoid him. Usually at this time, Shen Tianhong wouldn't be in the living room, right?

Did he come here specifically to wait for her this time?

"Shen Jiao, come in."

Shen Jiao's heart sank. She knew she couldn't avoid it, so she slowly walked in.

Sure enough, he was waiting for her.

"Sit down." Shen Tianhong lit a cigarette. "Last time, because of you, the shares were taken away. Shi Wan's words also successfully created a rift between us father and daughter. But this matter can't just end like this."

"So what do you want to do?"

Shen Jiao knew that anyone would feel uncomfortable hearing their father say such things in that situation.

Later, Shen Tianhong didn't even try to explain. The only reason Shen Jiao was still sitting here listening to him was that she was forcing herself.

"Get the shares back. Otherwise, even if the old man dies, our branch of the Shen family won't get a single share."

"But Grandpa has already..."

"I know what you want to say. The old man loves you very much. You should behave well and then bring up the matter of the shares when the opportunity arises. You'll surely succeed."

Shen Jiao was reluctant. Not only did she have a problem with Shen Tianhong, but she also had a big problem with the old master of the Shen family.

Even in that situation, he still protected Shen Siyan and the others.

If she could, she would even wish the old man would die right away!

"What's that look on your face?" Shen Tianhong was startled by the coldness in her eyes. "The happiness of our whole family depends on the old man. If you don't want to live a life of being looked down upon in the future, just listen to me."

"Got it."

She pursed her lips and regained her previous innocent look.

"Good. Don't be impulsive. I'll make sure you get your revenge for all the grievances you've suffered."

Shen Jiao just nodded without saying a word, looking easy to control.

Shen Tianhong gradually let down his guard. "You'll go to the old mansion to accompany the old man in a few days. People get old, and having their children and grandchildren around is their biggest wish."

"Okay."

Seeing that he stopped talking, Shen Jiao picked up her bag and went upstairs. All the hatred in her eyes was revealed.

She wouldn't let anyone in the Shen family off. The Shen family should belong to her.

Even her father.

...

After being embarrassed at Heshanshan, Shi Qing was assigned another task by the company. They wanted to use her former identity as a member of the YT Research Institute to spy on the institute.

Shi Qing readily agreed. Since they didn't want her, don't blame her for being merciless.

She was currently on the side of the YT Research Institute. It was not easy to be discovered here, but as soon as the people from the institute came out, they would fall right into the camera, and she could clearly see what the institute looked like.

Because of this gimmick, a large number of people quickly flooded into the live - broadcast room, and the popularity soared.

Bitter Gourd with Sweet and Sour Taste: "Beautiful sister, I heard that you were fired from the research institute. Is this a kind of revenge on the institute?"

Qingyang: "This research institute is really nice. I wonder how much money was spent on it. Host, go inside and take a look."

I Haven't Been This Speechless Since the Last Time: "These experts. The country has invested so much money in their research, but they don't seem to have achieved anything."

Pour Me a Cup of Tea, Boy: "I'm speechless about the person above. Why don't you just search online for what achievements the YT Research Institute has made? Don't show your ignorance online."

"......."

Seeing the popularity of the live - broadcast room rising continuously, even though there were people arguing, Shi Qing didn't try to kick anyone out or calm things down. Instead, she said things that would mislead people.

The atmosphere in the live - broadcast room was quickly heated up, and the emotions of the audience reached a peak.

After that, she had the people who disagreed with her kicked out, leaving only those who supported her. Later, even those who disagreed didn't dare to say anything anymore. They just silently watched this woman act arrogantly.

Suddenly, the emotions of the people in the live - broadcast room became even more excited. Shi Qing saw the words on the bullet screen and immediately looked over.

Why was Shi Wan here?

Wasn't it said that Si Yu didn't come back often?

Why did they just happen to meet?

Qingyang: "This is Shi Wan, right? I saw her last time. She's so beautiful."

Pour Me a Cup of Tea, Boy: "Why is Shi Wan here? It seems like she's going to enter the research institute. Can she get in? Or does she have another persona?"

I Don't Know What Nickname to Use to Describe Myself: "Ahh! I'm looking forward to what happens next! I want to know what Shi Wan is doing here."

The people in the live - broadcast room were very impulsive. Shi Qing wanted to move the camera away, but she was afraid of being accused of being guilty.
