Silence fell in the room. Qin Wan looked at the hung up phone, paused for a while and slowly put it down without speaking again.

Shen Yanci, on the other hand, had a downcast expression and his eyes were obviously filled with emotions.

Just when Qin Wan was thinking of finding a topic to break the atmosphere, the doorbell suddenly rang.

She was slightly surprised. She had almost no friends here. Why would someone come at this time?

While thinking about it, he walked towards the door. As soon as he opened the door, he saw Sheng Xizhou with a smiling face.

After seeing Qin Wan, Sheng Xizhou raised a dozen beers in his hand and said with clear eyes, "Although it's a bit presumptuous, today's project problem really made me a little broken, so I really want to hear your opinion. I won't bother you. You?"

"Huh? No, no bother, just——"

"It's okay if you don't bother me. I'm also worried about whether it would be too presumptuous to come directly to your door."

Before Qin Wan could finish what he said, Sheng Xizhou opened the door and walked in casually. He explained with a smile as he walked, ignoring the embarrassment on Qin Wan's face at the moment, and said in a relaxed voice: "Fortunately, you Just now I said——"

Halfway through his words, he suddenly caught a glimpse of Shen Yanci in the living room directly in front of him, and was immediately stunned: "Shen, Mr. Shen, why are you here?"

"Isn't it surprising that Mr. Sheng can come to talk to his subordinates about work at this time? I will send your subordinates back after the work discussion, right?"

They are both men, and they know each other's thoughts very clearly.

Shen Yanci looked at Sheng Xizhou's deliberate actions and tone just now, and guessed that he was deliberately looking for a reason to come to Qin Wan today. He even had a beer in his hand, just to take advantage of the alcohol. The current project is not going well, and I am just trying to get closer to Qin Wan.

Haha, that's ridiculous.

Sheng Xizhou was retorted by Shen Yanci's words. He was stunned for a moment before continuing to find his smile and said: "Mr. Shen is really a gentleman, but it's a coincidence that the people I want to talk to Wanwan today are GS and ZTE. This project, I believe it is also the project that Mr. Shen and Wanwan have been talking about for this period of time."

Shen Yanci didn't expect that Sheng Xizhou could continue to ask this question. His eyes changed slightly. He took a step forward and was about to speak, but Qin Wan on the side beat him to it: "Yes, Mr. Shen and I were talking about this project."

She saw the change in Shen Yanci's eyes just now, and understood that this was usually a precursor to anger for Shen Yanci. She was worried that he would reveal everything in a flash, so she spoke first.

"No wonder."

Sheng Xizhou vaguely felt something was wrong in the atmosphere between the two, and the expression on his face was a bit unnatural: "If this is the case, then the three of us should probably have a good chat, Mr. Shen, if you have time another day -"

"What should we do on another day? It's better to choose a different day than to hit the sun. Didn't Mr. Sheng even bring wine?"

Shen Yanci glanced at the wine in Sheng Xizhou's hand, his expression expressionless, but he meant something.

"Ah, this wine, this is - this -"

Sheng Xizhou looked at Qin Wan with some embarrassment, and Qin Wan also frowned. She was worried that Shen Yanci would go crazy and say something that shouldn't be said, so she said, "Let's forget it today. It's too late."

Shen Yanci chuckled when he heard this: "You don't think it's too late for Mr. Sheng to come to your house with beer, but you think it's too late for me to stay and talk to Mr. Sheng about the project. This doesn't make sense."

Qin Wan's words "it's too late" were originally a rejection. If a normal person heard this, he would have taken the initiative to leave. Unexpectedly, Shen Yanci calmly analyzed and asked questions. It was obvious that he did not intend to leave. As he spoke, Shen Yanci didn't even wait for Qin Wan's reaction. Shen Yanci came up and sat down. He opened Sheng Xizhou's wine, put a glass in front of him, and opened another bottle for himself:

"Mr. Sheng is so considerate to his subordinates. As a partner, I am ashamed of myself. Here's a toast to you."

After saying that, he raised his head and took a big sip.

Sheng Xizhou could clearly hear Shen Yanci's hostility from this tone of voice. The politeness on his face that was originally due to work was a little less, replaced by a male hormone showdown between men.

He also picked up the beer and took a sip: "Mr. Shen, you're welcome. Wanwan is not only my subordinate, but also a talent that countless luxury goods companies covet. It's right for me to take special care of her."

"Wanwan?"

Shen Yanci repeated these two words, chuckled and raised his head to look at Qin Wan: "Your name is really well chosen. Anyone who calls you will not reveal your secret, right?"

Qin Wan's expression remained unchanged, and his eyes warned: "I thought we were going to talk about the project today."

Why did she get involved in just a few sentences?

Sheng Xizhou's face changed slightly when he heard this, and he looked at Shen Yanci calmly: "Why did Mr. Shen say, what does the name Zhou Wan mean-"

"It's a fake name."

Shen Yanci directly interrupted Sheng Xizhou's probing and spoke bluntly, looking directly at him: "In your words, this is a stage name."

Sheng Xizhou didn't have much reaction when he heard this: "This is normal. Many designers are unwilling to use their real names as the designer's name. This is normal in the design world."

"It's normal to change your name, but what if you change your life? Is it normal?"

Shen Yanci looked at Sheng Xizhou, who was pretending to be calm, and continued to ask: "If the person standing in front of you had a completely different life before he met you, and had a former lover, but he concealed everything standing in front of you, you Do you also feel indifferent?"

Sheng Xizhou couldn't understand Shen Yanci's words more and more, and subconsciously looked at Qin Wan opposite.

Qin Wan looked gloomy and looked at Shen Yanci coldly: "Since you know that this is my life, you are not qualified to point fingers here. No matter what I have done in the past, it has passed now."

Shen Yanci chuckled: "Is it in the past or has it been forgotten?"

He paused and glanced at Sheng Xizhou again, and continued to ask pointedly: "You have a new love and forget the old love? Qin Wan, I really didn't know that you have always been so free and easy in this regard."

Qin Wan's breath was suffocated. When she heard Shen Yanci call out the word "Qin Wan" in front of Sheng Xizhou, she felt the shame of having her mask torn off in front of everyone. Her face suddenly rose and she clenched her hands tightly.

Looking at the silent confrontation between the two people in front of him, Sheng Xizhou vaguely understood something. He looked at Shen Yanci and said, "Mr. Shen, I don't know if you and Wanwan have known each other before, but I think everyone has their own past. Every past involves personal privacy, and it is better for outsiders to keep quiet about such privacy."

What he said was frank, but at this moment, Shen Yanci sounded particularly mean-spirited, which was clearly intentional!

Shen Yanci sneered and was about to say something else, but Qin Wan suddenly stood up: "Sorry, Mr. Shen, I don't think I have anything to talk to you about today. Please go out!" (End of Chapter)
