She Asks for a Divorce Again-Chapter 148 - Intentional
Chapter 148: Chapter 148 Intentional
Chapter 148: Chapter 148 Intentional
Like a rainbow suddenly seen after the rain, it brought a dazzling thrill. But Shen Jiangli, a playboy of the social scene, understood very well it was just a youthful impulse.
Thus, regarding the tangled resentments and entanglements between Pei Yansi and Shen Heyu, Shen Jiangli mostly watched with amusement. Of course, if he could further aggravate Pei Yansi, Shen Jiangli was more than happy to do so, treating it as a spice in the routine of stressful life.
However, after the laughter, Shen Jiangli didn’t know why, but he suddenly recalled the kiss mark on the slender neck of Shen Heyu. A vague discomfort began to stir within him, like a stabbing pain.
It wasn’t much, but it was there. This discomfort prevented Shen Jiangli from returning to his room to be alone. He followed to the outside of Shen Heyu’s room.
There, Pei Yansi was still knocking on the door, apologizing.
“Heyu, I won’t apologize because I made no mistake. I will only say this once, just now I thought the person I kicked was you.”
Shen Jiangli’s feeling of discomfort vanished. Leaning against the corridor wall, he raised his eyebrows and slyly shouted at the door, “Heyu, a man who can’t even distinguish you from another woman, you really need to consider carefully.”
Coincidentally, Shen Heyu inside the room was about to open the door, thinking it might be a misunderstanding, heard these words, and at that moment, felt the same way.
She had been married to Pei Yansi for so long, even though they reunited after six years, he was persistently intimate with her almost every night. Was there any part of her body he wasn’t familiar with?
Even if he didn’t look at her face, just her legs, just … he shouldn’t have mistaken her for Han Manyin. Unless, Pei Yansi indeed had something with Han Manyin, and was familiar with Han Manyin’s body.
That would explain the mix-up between the two women. Thinking this made Shen Heyu’s mood turn sour.
She raised her hand to lock the door from inside, then coldly said through the door, “President Pei, your beloved sweetheart is hurt and needs your tender care. Here, interruptions are unwelcome!”
Having said this and turning around, she suddenly felt something chilling brushing against her cheek.
Shen Heyu raised her hand to wipe it off and mocked herself fiercely. What gave her the delusion that Pei Yansi still had genuine feelings for her? After all this time, how could she still be so naive!
Shen Heyu, Shen Heyu, you deserve to be mocked, replaced, and treated like a toy…
Outside the door, hearing the trace of heartbreak in Shen Heyu’s voice, Pei Yansi paused.
He turned his head, his eyes slightly reddened, and glared fiercely at Shen Jiangli. Pointing his finger, he said, “Don’t think that just because I value Heyu’s presence, our collaboration is indestructible. Better watch your mouth!”
Shen Jiangli responded with a whistle. He actually didn’t care much whether the collaboration continued or not. Now, his corporation was also significant, with endless possibilities for growth and expansion.
It was only based on a belief in the advantage of strong alliances over fierce rivalries, and influenced by Shen Heyu’s role, that he had agreed to join hands with Pei Yansi.
But Pei Yansi was a president, and so was he, Shen Jiangli. If Pei Yansi continued to disrespect others, and him in particular, he was not desperate to cooperate.
Hearing Shen Jiangli’s whistle, Pei Yansi’s face turned a shade of iron blue. Lifting his foot, he was about to seek a waiter to get a spare room key.
As he turned around, Han Manyin threw herself into his arms with abandon.
Han Manyin clung tightly to Pei Yansi, whimpering, “President Pei, you’re so mean. You hurt me, then just left like that. You didn’t even give me time to get dressed. I’m not letting this go… It really hurts.”
Pei Yansi’s complexion could best be described as ashen.
Shen Jiangli, on the other hand, accurately fished out a cell phone, aimed it at the couple, and switched on the video function.
Hearing the commotion, Zhao Jin, who came rushing over, saw the veins pulsing on Pei Yansi’s temples and hurriedly tried to pry Han Manyin’s fingers away.
Although, actually… he was also quite curious about how exactly President Pei had managed to cause Han Manyin such pain. But, keeping his job was more important. So, his first thought was to pull the two apart quickly.
At that moment, several reporters with cameras and microphones suddenly burst onto the scene. They snapped away relentlessly, their flashes blinding, and bombarded him with questions continuously.
“President Pei, who is this in your arms? Your new girlfriend?”
“President Pei, there are rumors that you’re trying to woo your wife back for a reconciliation. Is there any truth to that? What about this situation? Who is she?”
“President Pei, it’s rumored you’re dating a celebrity. Is this a misunderstanding? If so, could you clarify this for us?”
“President Pei, wasn’t it said that you came here to discuss business collaborations? Isn’t it inappropriate to act like this in public? Could this negatively affect your company’s reputation? Could this make your potential partners reconsider working with your group?”
“President Pei, with such disregard for your company’s image and damaging your company’s reputation, even though this is happening away from home, won’t there be repercussions? Won’t it affect how others view your collaboration potential? Could this impact the stability of the stock market? Have you considered these factors?”
“President Pei, facing the cameras, do you have anything to say to the shareholders?”
“…”
Just then, Shen Heyu heard the noise outside and walked over. This just made Pei Yansi, who was already completely frantic due to losing control of the situation, lose his temper completely.

He pushed Han Manyin away with a swing of his arm and pointed at the reporters threateningly, “Keep your mouths shut. If you dare to say a single irresponsible word, have your bosses come talk to me!”
“Wow, what a domineering CEO he is! Truly worthy of being President Pei…” A young female reporter remarked, as she actually swooned on the spot.
Meanwhile, other male reporters had revised their headlines in their minds in an instant, from ‘President Pei’s affair affects business collaboration’ to ‘Dominant CEO’s authority exposed’.
The topic was just too sensational not to exploit. They could spin the same story in eight hundred different ways with no problem.
As for President Pei’s warning? Well, with juicy material in hand, even if they didn’t publish it, they could still make a huge profit. As long as President Pei didn’t want these appearing on the front page, the price certainly wouldn’t be low. What a windfall!
After warning them, Pei Yansi turned and walked toward Shen Heyu. In his eyes, in his heart, only Shen Heyu mattered. Everything else—what collaborations, what front-page headlines? He could ignore them all.
