Upstairs, in the dimly lit window, a slender figure stared closely at the two figures hugging each other under the eaves. His eyes were as calm as water, but his heart was filled with waves.
"Sea level."
She called her assistant behind her.
Haiping walked over and followed her gaze. What caught her eyes were two figures, making her eyes narrow:
"Sister An'an."
Qiao Anan hooked her fingers and Haiping leaned over.
The two whispered for a while, and Haiping understood and left quietly.
Downstairs, Shen Nian wanted to leave, but Fu Hanye refused to let him go. He stared at her beautiful eyebrows:
"If you really want to leave, I'll see you off."
Shen Nian stopped:
"No, you go up and accompany her."
At Shen Nian's insistence, Fu Hanye complied with her wishes. Fu Hanye stood there, holding his bags with both hands, watching Shen Nian leave with mixed feelings in his heart.
Shen Nian stopped the car and the car quickly drove away from the villa.
Along the way, Shen Nian closed her eyes and kept thinking about Fu Hanye's words in her mind. Every word and every sentence was deeply imprinted in her heart, especially his lonely and cold expression. She could feel the man's heart. The despair and pain of death.
If it weren't for Qiao An'an's parents, he would not be alive in this world.
If it were her, she wouldn't be able to leave Qiao Anan alone.
Besides, Fu Hanye's feelings for her were at best a responsibility.
However, she knew in her heart that she liked him, no, not like him, just deeply in love. For this relationship, she was willing to wait another year. After all, for the past three years, all she had hoped for was to get his love.
Shen Nian felt that his heart was very soft.
She suddenly felt that her chest was tight again and her breathing was not smooth again. Recently, her asthma rate has been too high.
I don’t know if it’s because of my bad mood.
Opening the bag, she took out the medicine and took one dry pill.
She thought the situation would get better gradually, but unexpectedly, her suffocating breathing still did not ease.
She took a deep breath and said to the driver in front of her:
"Master, please open the window."
She felt better when the car window was lowered.
Bai Lan celebrates his fifty-fifth birthday and plans to take this opportunity to publicize the news of his return to China.
In the afternoon, when Shen Nian came back from discussing business, Chao Chao came over and said to her:
"Today is Madam's birthday. She has hosted a banquet for many relatives and friends. Mr. Fu is waiting for you downstairs."
After learning Fu Hanye's secret last night, Shen Nian didn't mind the matter between him and Qiao Anan as much as before. She even felt that the child in Qiao Anan's belly was not Fu Hanye's.
Shen Nian got into the car and Fu Hanye drove back to his old house, Ye Shuihan Mansion.
Tonight was a very lively night in Shuihan. Maybe the old lady wanted to win over her and Bai Lan, so she agreed to Bai Lan's proposal to hold a birthday banquet in the old house.
However, Shen Nian searched around the crowd and could not find the old lady. This meant that although the old lady agreed to Bai Lan's proposal, she was somewhat dissatisfied with her daughter-in-law. She refused to go downstairs on the pretext of being ill.
In fact, he no longer gave Bai Lan face.
Bai Lan didn't care either. She was dressed up quite beautifully and kept walking among her relatives and friends with a wine glass in her hand. She would chat with this one and greet that one from time to time. She looked very happy.
Next to her, there was Qiao An'an, who was dressed up all the time. Qiao An'an wore exquisite makeup today and had a lot of powder on her face. She was completely different from the woman who was clamoring to commit suicide last night and acted like a mad woman. people.
Everyone knew Fu Hanye. As soon as he appeared, many people gathered around him, and everyone cast a surprised look at the woman next to him.
Shen Nian and Fu Hanye had a secret marriage, so no one knew Shen Nian.
Shen Nian curled his lips and smiled, nodding politely to everyone.
Seeing Fu Hanye appear, the smile on Qiao Anan's face became even brighter. She said something to Bai Lan, and Bai Lan nodded. Then, Qiao Anan walked over with her skirt in hand.
"Brother Hanye, you are finally here."
She stepped forward and took Fu Hanye's hand. Fu Hanye peeled it off, but Qiao Anan held his arm harder.
Tangled like a vine.
In public, Fu Hanye couldn't keep Qiao Anan from coming to the stage.
The moment Qiao An'an came over, Shen Nian took the initiative to stand aside, with the intention of giving up her seat. She always kept a gentle smile on her face, and everyone's eyes began to flow back and forth on the faces of the three of them.
One man, two women, the emotional entanglement is self-evident.
With Fu Hanye's status, it was normal for all the women present to surround him, let alone two.
Rich, handsome, and good-looking, who wouldn't want to marry their daughter to him?
Two middle-aged women whispered quietly in the corner.
The whisper accidentally fell into Shen Nian's ears. Shen Nian pretended not to hear, with the smile on his face still charming.
Bai Lan came to the stage to give a speech, basically thanking her relatives and friends for coming. She specially called Qiao An'an up and introduced Qiao An'an to everyone.
Qiao Anan also spoke.
Everyone was puzzled. Bai Lan didn't mention Shen Nian, who entered the venue with Fu Hanye, and Shen Nian didn't seem to care. He sat at the dining table, lowered his head, eating and drinking.
Fu Hanye was originally going to sit at the same table with her, but he was pulled away midway. After all, tonight, as the son of the birthday girl, he was also considered half of the protagonist.
Shen Nian turned around and saw Fu Hanye drinking happily with a group of people who were related to him, so she didn't care anymore.
Halfway through the meal, someone tapped her on the shoulder. Shen Nian looked up and saw Li Liang's face, which was red from being slightly drunk:
"Manager Shen, come, let me have a drink with you."
Shen Nian pursed her lips:
"I won't drink tonight. Another day, another day, I will definitely drink with you."
Li Liang sat down next to her and poured a glass of beer for Shen Nian:
"Manager Shen, if you don't drink, you are looking down on me. You must drink with me tonight."
Shen Nian felt that something was wrong with Li Liang tonight.
Moreover, why would he come to such an occasion?
When she was wondering, Li Liang raised his head and drank the wine in his hand, turning the glass upside down:
"Manager Shen, it's your turn."
Shen Nian couldn't resist him and didn't want to cause trouble on such an occasion, so she had to pick up the wine glass and take a sip.
Li Liang did not let her go, picked up the cup and put it into her hand:
"It's time to do it. Just have this drink and have a glass of wine. Nothing will happen."
Li Liang is well-known in the circle for persuading people to drink.
Shen Nian had no choice but to swallow the entire glass of wine next to his mouth.
Li Liang whispered to her:
"I broke up with Liu Xin. I don't want that slutty bitch anymore. Being with her is too annoying."
Li Liang was particularly irritable and in a bad mood.
It can be seen that men have lost their kidneys and their hearts, while women are playing with the world and have no heart or lungs.
Shen Nian found it funny:
"Vice President Li, they say women tend to lose their temper easily, but you are better off. How come you can't afford to play with a man who is seven feet tall?"
Li Liang flipped his tie:
"It's not that I can't afford it, it's that she's so fucking inhuman. She treats me like a laborer every day. Not to mention, every time I drink her foot-washing water, she only agrees to sleep with me. Why?"
