Chapter 048 Not My Intention
Shen Yi sat behind his desk processing documents, his pen gliding across the paper, but his eyes kept drifting uncontrollably to his phone on the corner of the desk.
The screen was quiet, like a piece of silent black jade.
He inexplicably hoped that it would suddenly light up.
Not long after.
The phone really started vibrating, and the name flashing on the screen was both unfamiliar and familiar.
Shen Yi grabbed his phone almost reflexively, and the moment he answered, his tone carried a hint of urgency that he himself didn't realize:
"You bastard..."
"Brother Shen Yi, it's me, Qianqian."
Su Qian's delicate voice came from the other end of the phone, carrying a deliberate air of grievance.
Shen Yi's raised eyebrows drooped instantly, and the light in his eyes dimmed considerably.
Only a hint of impatience remained. He hesitated for a moment before speaking, his tone cold and hard: "What is it?"
Su Qian seemed completely oblivious to his coldness, and continued to complain to herself:
"Brother Shen Yi, Lu Chen is ignoring me. He's always busy with work, and my mother-in-law seems to think I'm clumsy too. I really don't know what I did wrong..."
She sobbed twice, her voice growing weaker, "I'm so lonely at home all by myself. Could you come and keep me company? Just like before, just listen to me talk."
Shen Yi tightened his grip on the phone, instinctively wanting to hang up.
But then I thought, Su Qian and Su Qiu are somehow connected, maybe Su Qiu will show up this time...
The moment the thought crossed his mind, he said almost without hesitation: "Send me the address."
After hanging up the phone, he looked up at the door and called out, "Lin Wei, prepare the car."
Lin Wei pushed the door open and entered. When he heard the destination, his face contorted as if he had swallowed a fly, his lips twitching.
"Boss, shall we go see Miss Su?"
Shen Yi looked up at him: "Is there a problem?"
"No, no problem." Lin Wei was internally screaming: Wait, is the boss under a spell?
Anyone with eyes can see through Su Qian's little schemes; she's a complete green tea b*tch!
Does the boss just like this kind of thing?
Is this world beyond saving...?
Su Qiu, you'd better come back and keep an eye on your husband!
He grumbled inwardly as he reluctantly turned to arrange the vehicles.
I just felt that my boss was probably going to fail this time.
the other side.
Su Qian hung up the phone, and a smug smile immediately appeared on her face.
She hadn't expected Shen Yi to actually come; it seemed she still held some weight in his heart.
"This time, I won't let you run away again."
She muttered to herself, a ruthless glint in her eyes.
Last time, everything was arranged perfectly, but the video mysteriously disappeared, allowing Shen Yi to escape unscathed.
She will not fail this time.
Lu Chen deliberately gathered twice as many people as last time, just waiting for Shen Yi to walk into the trap.
Su Qian opened the hotel booking app and selected a hotel suite with excellent privacy.
He carefully examined the hidden camera in the room, a calculating smile playing on his lips.
"Brother Shen Yi, this time you can't escape."
She whispered to the air, as if she could already see Shen Yi falling into the trap.
We're just waiting for him to take the bait.
……
When Su Qian saw Shen Yi push the door open and enter, a sweet smile immediately appeared on her face, and she stood up to greet him:
"Brother Shen Yi, you've finally arrived! I've been waiting for you for so long."
The table was already laden with dishes, and she warmly pulled Shen Yi to sit down.
He started using the same trick again, serving Shen Yi food while pouring wine into his glass.
His eyes were full of deliberate flattery:
"Brother Shen Yi, try this. I had the kitchen make it especially for you. Wasn't this your favorite dish before?"
She was secretly pleased with herself.
These dishes were all adulterated, regardless of whether Shen Yi was drinking or eating them.
Today, we are all destined to face this.
Shen Yi didn't touch the wine glass this time; he only picked up a few pieces of food with his chopsticks but didn't eat any.
I caught it last time from drinking.
Given his personality, he wouldn't touch anything present.
They must have added something to these things again.
He won't fall for it again.
He would never have come if it weren't to see Su Qiu.
Moreover, as far as Su Qian is concerned, I have already given her a chance. If something unexpected still happens this time...
Then I will carry out his revenge.
Su Qian wasn't worried when she saw that Shen Yi hadn't eaten.
Thinking it must be something from last time, Shen Yi became wary.
She has her own way.
How could a man like Shen Yi bear to see her crying and sobbing in front of him?
Su Qian complained again, saying that her family's company was poorly managed and had lost a lot of money, and they were even struggling to pay their employees' salaries.
Her tearful appearance was indeed quite pitiful.
"Brother Shen Yi, I really don't know what to do..."
Su Qian wiped away her tears, her voice choked with sobs, "My parents don't care about me, and Lu Chen doesn't help me either. How can I, a girl, possibly cope..."
Shen Yi only asked symbolically, "How much exactly was lost?"
They didn't mention giving money, nor did they say they would help find projects.
He knew in his heart that Su Qian's words were most likely fabricated.
Seeing that he remained unmoved, Su Qian immediately increased her "firepower".
She suddenly grabbed Shen Yi's hand; her palm was icy cold, but her eyes held a pitiful innocence, like a delicate white flower in dire need of protection.
"Brother Shen Yi, I know you're the best. You'll definitely help me, right? Only you can help me..."
Shen Yi felt nauseous looking at her like this.
But somehow, it was as if my body and mouth were being controlled by something.
I had no choice but to comply.
"Don't worry," he heard himself reassure her in an unusually gentle tone. "I'll keep an eye on the project and definitely help you get through this difficult time."
As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Yi subconsciously frowned.
This was not his intention at all!
How could he say such a thing?!
It felt like there was some inexplicable force pushing him, making him do things against his will.
Su Qian immediately stopped crying and smiled, tightly gripping his hand:
"Brother Shen Yi, you're so kind! What would I do without you! You're such a good person!"
From now on, Qianqian will definitely stay with you often and never let you be lonely again...
Shen Yi forced a smile that looked more like a grimace, his unease growing stronger.
Followed by.
Su Qian diligently piled a whole bunch of food into his bowl, her eyes filled with an undeniable gaze.
Shen Yi's body seemed to receive some kind of command.
I felt my head getting heavier and heavier, and my body becoming increasingly out of control.
He could only mechanically pick up his chopsticks and start eating, one bite after another.
He even praised Su Qian, saying, "Qianqian, all the dishes you ordered are ones I like. Thank you, Qianqian."
Seeing Shen Yi eating, Su Qian was overjoyed. "It's alright, Brother Shen Yi, eat as much as you like. Qianqian will pay!"
Shen Yi couldn't resist and started eating the vegetables.
A sense of horror flashed through the man's mind. Why couldn't he control himself?
What happened?!
It was as if something had forcibly pushed aside his self-awareness and started operating according to a certain program...
