Rose Manor

When Shen Jia Nian walked out of the box, his expression was very bad. Bai Changxia was worried and had been waiting for her in the corridor outside the box. When he saw her coming out, he immediately stepped forward and took her arm, his eyes moving back and forth on her face several times.

"Jianian, what did Fu Jichen's aunt say to you?" Bai Changxia waited for a while, but when he didn't hear Shen Jianian's answer, he guessed that what the other party said was not good, and comforted him, "No matter what she said, it won't work. , the person who really makes the decision is Fu Jichen, as long as Fu Jichen treats you well. She is an aunt, has her own family, and doesn't live with you, so you don't need to care about her opinion. "

Shen Jia Nian shook his head in a daze. How could Fu Jianfang represent herself? She said that the old man in the family fell ill because of her and Fu Jichen's affairs, so she had no choice but to step forward.

The only person Fu Jianfang can call an "old man" is her father, Fu Jichen's grandfather, the oldest man in the Fu family.

However, when Fu Jichen proposed to her on New Year's Eve, he told her that he mentioned their matter to the old man at home, and the old man let him make the decision himself.

Shen Jia Nian didn't know who to believe.

In the box, after Shen Jianian left, Fu Jianfang was the only one left. She drank a cup of fruit tea gracefully and calmly, put down the cup, picked up the mobile phone with the screen on the table, and made a call.

"You didn't make Fu Jichen suspicious, right? He's always cautious."

The person on the other end of the phone said something, and the corners of Fu Jianfang's mouth curled up: "It would be fine if I didn't."

After hanging up the phone, Fu Jianfang put the phone back on the table, picked up the glass teapot and refilled a cup of tea. If she can handle this matter well, she will have made a great contribution to the old man. When she makes requests to him, he will probably not refuse. She wants to get the management rights of Dongke, a subsidiary of Junshan Group.

Dong Ke is now one of the top three most profitable companies in Junshan. She has worked hard for the Fu family for so many years, and she cannot let Fu Jichen take all the benefits alone. It's hers, she's going to get it.

She would never give in if the second and third children lost their fighting spirit.

Fu Jianfang sipped her fruit tea and recalled Shen Jianian's expression when she left. Even though she pretended not to care, she was just a paper tiger. It looked so powerful that it would break into pieces at a touch.

A simple woman like Shen Jia Nian can guess her thoughts at first glance. She advocates a life of two people and cannot tolerate impure things in love, such as calculations and deception.

What's the point of forcing her to leave? She figured out that letting go was the right thing to do.

Wei Ronghua has been stupid all his life.

After Shen Jia Nian and Bai Chang Xia separated, they did not return to Yunding Palace, but returned to their rented house.

It was already ten o'clock in the night after Fu Jichen's socializing was over. He returned to Yunding Palace to find out that Shen Jia Nian had not returned here. He rubbed his brows and asked Qu Mo to change his route and send him to the community where Shen Jia Nian lived.

While the car was driving on the road, Fu Jichen called her, but she didn't answer. She didn't know if she fell asleep.

At almost eleven o'clock, Fu Jichen came out of the elevator and touched his trouser pocket. He forgot to bring the key, so he had to knock on the door.

Shen Jianian was sitting on the sofa in the living room, with her cell phone next to her. It rang twice before, but she didn't pick it up. She guessed that Fu Jichen would come, so she waited for him here.

When she heard the knock on the door, she knew that Fu Jichen had arrived without even thinking.

Shen Jia Nian took a deep breath, mentally prepared himself, and opened the door. Fu Jichen outside the door was wearing a white shirt and a dark gray suit. His tie was pulled loose, and he lowered his eyes. The shadow of his eyelashes blocked the look under his eyes. A few strands of hair fell down from his forehead, which was confusing for no reason.

Shen Jianian's eyes were fixed on the white shirt in his suit. He was wearing a black shirt when he went out in the morning. She tied the tie for him, so she remembered it clearly.

He changed his shirt.

His eyes moved downward, and then he discovered that his trousers had also been changed.

In the photo Fu Jianfang showed her, Fu Jichen was still dressed as he was in the morning...

"You haven't slept yet?" Fu Jichen closed the door and held her hand. Her fingers were cold to the touch, "Is the air conditioner set too low? Why are my hands so cold?"

Shen Jianian did not smell a strong smell of alcohol on him. His expression was normal and his eyes were normal. He should not be drunk. She didn't know how to explain the origin of those two photos. The first photo was reasonable, but she couldn't find a reasonable explanation for the second photo.

During the few hours she sat in the living room, she thought about many possibilities. The answer that was most likely to be close to the truth was that Fu Jichen drank too much at the dinner. Otherwise, she couldn't convince herself.

In fact, even if Fu Jichen was drunk and did something outrageous, she still couldn't convince herself.

She could never accept that she and another woman had a man together. The situation Fu Jianfang mentioned did not exist for her. If something really happened between Fu Jichen and the daughter of the Zhou family, she would definitely not maintain this kind of relationship with him again.

"What's wrong?" Fu Jichen lifted her chin with his fingertips and leaned slightly to look at her level. He looked into her eyes and felt that she was about to cry. His heart tightened, "What happened?"

Shen Jia Nian wanted to ask him, but she didn't know how to ask. She listed several ways to ask in her mind -

Where did you go to socialize tonight?

Who did you meet?

Why are you alone in the hotel suite with the lady from the Zhou family?

What did you do?

Is the young lady from the Zhou family whom you think is a suitable candidate to be your wife? what about me? What do you mean by what you said to me last night?

No matter which question she had, Shen Jia Nian couldn't ask it, because she looked too much like a resentful woman struggling to her death. What would Fu Jichen think of her? Maybe you think she doesn't trust him, is being unreasonable, or is being hypocritical by asking about his whereabouts.

But Fu Jichen didn't understand what she was thinking, and was still waiting patiently for her answer. In the end, Shen Jianian just shook his head as if nothing had happened, suppressing the sourness in his eyes: "No, I'm just too sleepy."

"I'll be socializing too late in the future. Don't wait for me. Go to bed first." Fu Jichen stroked her hair on the temples, carried her back to the room, put her on the bed, covered her with a quilt, and said in a very soft voice, "Go to sleep. I'm going to take a shower."

The lights in the bedroom were turned off, and Fu Jichen went to the bathroom outside to take a shower. The moment he turned on the shower, Shen Jianian's expression when he first entered the door flashed in his mind. It didn't look like nothing happened.

Fu Jichen turned off the shower and called Zheng Yi.

"Who did she meet when she went out today?"

Zheng Yi didn't react at first. Since Fu Yuling's death, the crisis has been lifted and most of the people who secretly protected Shen Jiannian have withdrawn. The boss hasn't asked this question for a long time.

"Ms. Shen had a meal with Miss Bai at a western restaurant, then walked around nearby and then went home. She didn't meet anyone in particular." Zheng Yi answered according to what he knew.

Shen Jianian was eating in the restaurant, and it was impossible for him to follow her and stand next to her, so he didn't know what happened in the restaurant. However, Shen Jianian and Bai Changxia didn't have a long meal, so they probably didn't encounter any unexpected situations.

Fu Jichen did not dispel his doubts, but further asked: "Which restaurant?"

Zheng Yi said the name of the restaurant and attached its detailed address.

It happens to be a Western restaurant owned by Fu's. Fu Jichen called Song Fang and asked him to find out who the manager of this house was.

In the bedroom, Shen Jia Nian was not sleepy. Fu Jichen came in after taking a shower and found her lying on her side looking at her mobile phone. The screen light reflected on her face: "It's not that she is sleepy, why aren't you sleeping yet?"

Shen Jianian put down his phone and blinked his dry eyes. He couldn't find an excuse at the moment and said in a straight voice, "Maybe he was too sleepy and couldn't fall asleep."

Fu Jichen opened the quilt and came in. He smelled of the same cherry blossom shower gel as hers. Shen Jianian changed the subject unnaturally: "Did you use the wrong shower gel?"

"Take whatever you want."

"Oh." Shen Jianian hatched a test method while he was taking a shower. She was still a little nervous when she said it, "Do you...do you still count what you said last night?"

Fu Jichen was used to lying on the same quilt with her, hugging each other and talking, with a sense of intimacy between husband and wife: "What are you talking about?"

Shen Jianian couldn't help but pinch his waist. Why didn't he act according to common sense? She pursed her lips and gave him a two-word reminder: "Get the certificate."

Is this prompt straightforward enough?

Shen Jianian felt that when she said these two words, the body next to her stiffened. Then Fu Jichen asked her, "Have you thought about it?"

"You just need to answer my question."

Fu Jichen said nothing, picked up the mobile phone on the bedside table and clicked a few times on the screen. Shen Jia Nian didn't see clearly what he was doing on his phone, so he stretched his neck and asked, "Did you not hear what I said?"

When asked if she had done something, he didn't reply. Instead of asking her if she had thought about it, he was just playing with her phone. What did he mean?

Fu Jichen filled out all the information with one hand, and then threw his mobile phone to Shen Jianian: "Just click 'submit'."

Only then did Shen Jianian see the "Marriage Registration Appointment" interface on the phone screen. Fu Jichen made an appointment for the time period from 9 to 10 am tomorrow morning.

There is only one step to "submit" and the appointment is successful. Because tomorrow is not a holiday of special significance, the number of remaining reservations shows that there are still 5 places. (End of chapter)
