When Love Turns the Tables: The Mysterious Husband's Chase

Chapter 288: Sheng Jianan Acts Shamelessly (8)

As they were about to reach the door, the landlady suddenly called out to Sheng Jianan, "Mr. Sheng, thank you. You and Miss Tang must surely be rewarded for your kindness."

Sheng Jianan paused at these words, and the corner of his mouth twitched.

A good person?

No one had ever described him like that before. Sheng Jianan didn’t expect his first "good person card" to be thanks to Tang Yanqi, and it felt pretty nice.

After leaving the ward, Sheng Jianan went to Mr. Sheng’s ward, where he chatted with the old man for a while before leaving leisurely.

In the afternoon, Sheng Jianan’s work efficiency could only be described as "rapid." Qiao Zi was already used to it and knew very well the capabilities of her boss. Normally, the unfinished tasks were not due to a lack of ability but simply because he wasn’t paying attention.

Today’s absolute high efficiency was perfectly typical.

Before five o’clock, Sheng Jianan had already finished everything and handed the last document to Qiao Zi, "Any more arrangements?"

"No more, are you leaving work early today, President?"

"Yes."

Sheng Jianan was already up, preparing to put on his coat and leave. Qiao Zi was walking back with the documents when she suddenly remembered something and turned back, "President, it was my oversight; I forgot to report one thing."

"What is it?"

Qiao Zi put down the documents in her hand and quickly returned to her office, taking out a check from the drawer, the very one Tang Yanqi had given her earlier.

"President, this is the check that Young Madam asked me to investigate."

Sheng Jianan looked at the check in Qiao Zi’s hand. If she hadn’t mentioned it, he would have forgotten that Tang Yanqi had talked about it in a call earlier.

It wasn’t that Sheng Jianan didn’t care, it just slipped his mind when he got back.

"What’s up? Any issues?"

Qiao Zi hesitated a bit and, after two seconds of silence, spoke, "This check is from Young Master Ze, and..."

Sheng Jianan frowned slightly. Qiao Zi always handled matters swiftly and decisively, rarely speaking hesitantly. It was clear she had already found out the source of the check but hadn’t reported to Tang Yanqi, opting to tell him first. That could only mean one thing.

This check isn’t simple!

"Speak!"

"Based on the investigation, Young Master Ze would transfer from this account, and only in the form of a check under one condition, it’s money he gives to... to some women."

Zhou Chengze was Sheng Jianan’s childhood friend, and Sheng Jianan was well aware of Young Master Zhou’s experiences with many women.

The check in Tang Yanqi’s hand, a check meant for those women from Zhou Chengze, how is that possible?

"According to Young Madam, this check is for a friend of hers, so I..."

Sheng Jianan took the check from Qiao Zi’s hand, looked at it for two seconds, then slipped it into his pocket, "I got it. You don’t need to worry about this matter anymore."

"Yes!"

Sheng Jianan left Shengshi and gave Zhou Chengze a call, then started his car and drove to K University.

Tang Yanqi had just finished a full afternoon of classes and received a call from Sheng Jianan as soon as she left the classroom, "Class over?"

"Yes, it’s over."

"The usual place, come out."

Tang Yanqi glanced at her roommates walking a few steps ahead of her, then lowered her voice and said into the phone, "Is there something? I have plans to make hotpot with my roommates in the dormitory. They brought back a lot of hotpot base from home."

The smile on Sheng Jianan’s face instantly disappeared. What did she mean by that? Was she implying she wouldn’t come out to have dinner with him?
