Chapter 154: Chapter 154 Intentional News
Shen Heyu had a bad feeling, and sure enough, she heard him saying to the other end of the line, “That’s all for today’s meeting. I have someone to accompany now.”
Beep beep, the call was disconnected.
“…” Shen Heyu suddenly remembered the domestic news she saw in the private room yesterday, talking about Pei Yansi taking his girlfriend on a business trip.
This was overseas, and the news they saw was from back home. If it could be seen here, can you imagine how sensational it must have been within the country?
Shen Heyu looked at Pei Yansi in disbelief.
The Pei Family naturally had their people in the domestic media. Without his say-so, how could anyone dare to broadcast his news so boldly?
And this kind of gossip news at that?
It was deliberate!
“Why aren’t you speaking? Hungry or not, I’ll call for breakfast,” Pei Yansi said as he sat on the edge of the bed, reaching out to touch her cheek with an extremely gentle tone.
Shen Heyu snorted coldly, turned over, got out of bed, and avoided him like the plague, rushing into the bathroom.
Sitting on the toilet, she just couldn’t understand the purpose of Pei Yansi’s actions. Could it also be part of his plan to take revenge on her?
She quickly came out of the bathroom, freshened up, and saw breakfast all laid out outside, all her favorite foods.
Pei Yansi beckoned to her, “Come have breakfast. Afterward, I’ll take you somewhere.”
“Where?”
“Eat first, then I’ll tell you.”
Shen Heyu felt her stomach, indeed empty, and without making a fuss, she sat at the dining table. Looking at the breakfast on the table, she felt no appetite and said, “The gossip news back home, it’s you who did it on purpose, isn’t it? Why are you doing this?”
“What do you mean?” Pei Yansi put down his chopsticks, looked up at her with a faint smile hanging on his face—gentle, yet eerie.
Gentle in an abnormal way.
His eyes were full of affection, as if he cherished her, but she could also detect a hint of indifference.
“Literally what I said, you instructed someone to release the news about you and me. Mr. Pei, your actions have already affected my life.”
Shen Heyu poked at the bun in front of her and said coldly, “I hope you will stop here and not make things ugly.”
“What counts as ugly?” Pei Yansi dropped the act, smiling at her and said, “Being associated with my news makes you feel embarrassed? So you think it’s ugly?”
Shen Heyu frowned. “You know that’s not what I mean.”
“No, I don’t know that.”
The smile on Pei Yansi’s handsome face disappeared completely, and he said sternly, “Eat without speaking, sleep without talking.”
Shen Heyu, getting nowhere with bargaining, had to go ahead and eat her breakfast while thinking about the news back home. There was nothing she could do now, and she would have to wait until she got back to handle the public relations.
Although she wasn’t sure she could outdo his PR.

In Shen Jiangli’s room, Han Manyin woke up from his bed.
She opened her eyes and saw him sitting by the floor-to-ceiling window smoking. Han Manyin got out of bed, walked over to him, and hugged him gently, deliberately softening her voice, “President Shen…”
Shen Jiangli looked up at her indifferently, and with just one glance, he knew what the woman wanted. She was just a plaything.
But her face was attractive and her figure not bad at all. Shen Jiangli never skimped on women, and he happened to need a companion right now, so he didn’t mind keeping her for some fun.
He flashed a roguish smile, raised his hand and brushed her waist, saying, “You’ve got skills.”
Han Manyin’s face turned red, “Only with President Shen.”
“Is that so? When you came here, was Pei Yansi not your target?” Shen Jiangli directly pierced through her lie.
Caught off-guard by such a straightforward confrontation of her previous intentions, Han Manyin’s face flushed deep red, not knowing what to say.
Seeing her reaction, Shen Jiangli reached out and touched her buttocks, laughing, “Why so nervous? You ended up by my side anyway, and I don’t mind.”
“Thank you, President Shen. I will, of course, follow only you from now on.”
“However…” Shen Jiangli fixed his gaze on her eyes, saying, “Shen Heyu isn’t someone you can handle. She’s one of my people. If I catch you going after her again, you’ll pack your things and get out. Understand?”
Han Manyin was momentarily stunned, not expecting their conversation to suddenly shift to Shen Heyu. She was even more clueless as to why he would protect Heyu too.
Could it be that, like Pei Yansi, he only had her in his heart?
A wave of jealousy surged from within her. She kept her composure and deliberately asked, “President Shen, do you have feelings for her?”
“How is she your person, she’s with Mr. Pei…”
She couldn’t finish her sentence, as she saw Shen Jiangli’s eyes turn cold, with a touch of malice.
Han Manyin was frightened, not daring to continue.
A few seconds later, Shen Jiangli returned to his usual self, laughing, “Of course not. She’s my subordinate, and she’s done me favors before.”
Han Manyin dared not bring up the topic again, nodding her head and snuggling into Shen Jiangli’s embrace.
Yet in her heart, she remained alert to the matter. She couldn’t help but feel resentful. Why did every man she set her sights on always bring up Shen Heyu, and why did they all protect her?
She believed she was no less than her!
Their project was complete, and they had settled a contract with President Cheng; they were due to return to their country soon. As an assistant, Han Manyin was instructed by Shen Jiangli to book the plane tickets.

There was a fireworks show that night, and Han Manyin suggested they go to watch it. Shen Jiangli did not refuse; last night, she had said there was something she needed to discuss with him, but in the end, they had fallen asleep together.
Since she was beautiful and his type, and he had decided to keep her as a companion, of course he wouldn’t refuse such a small matter as watching fireworks with her.
So Han Manyin booked their return tickets for three days later.
At night, Shen Heyu was pulled out of her room by Pei Yansi.
He insisted on taking her somewhere, and even if she was reluctant, there was no chance for her to resist against this man.
As they left the room, they came face to face with Han Manyin, who was exiting Shen Jiangli’s room.
They were holding hands and looked very intimate. Shen Heyu was taken aback and for a moment didn’t know what to say.
Shen Jiangli raised an eyebrow and smiled, “What’s wrong?”
Shen Heyu came back to her senses, realizing her look from a moment ago was a bit impolite. She quickly explained, “Sorry, it’s just that things have progressed so quickly, my mind couldn’t keep up.”
What mattered most was that wasn’t Han Manyin chasing after Pei Yansi just yesterday? How could she be holding hands with Shen Jiangli today?
Shen Jiangli smiled, said nothing, and left with Han Manyin.
Pei Yansi, holding Shen Heyu’s hand, followed behind them, nonchalantly said, “Are you unhappy seeing him with someone else?”
Shen Heyu frowned, not wishing to engage in such a nonsensical discussion.
