Madam is a dandy, Mr. Shen loves her so much

The meal was quite enjoyable.

Cen Qingyue tried his best to talk to Shen Jiyuan, but Shen Jiyuan's temperament had always been cold.

Out of ten sentences, the man would only reply to him lightly.

But even this sentence was enough to make him happy.

According to the current situation, Mrs. Shen here values ​​Cen Xuan very much.

As long as there are no problems with the relationship with the Shen family, there will be more opportunities to climb up in the future.

In the three days after the news of Cen Xuan and Shen Jiyuan's marriage came to light, the number of cooperation projects that Yin Yu came to see more than double.

Cen Qingyue also knew that if he wanted to double the company's market value, it would be impossible to rely on his own abilities.

Since Cen Xuan has borrowed the Shen family's shareholding, as Cen Xuan's uncle, he can certainly benefit from this.

"Xiaoxuan successfully entered the semi-finals of this competition, and my second aunt hasn't congratulated you yet." Zhao Zhi said with a smile.

Cen Xuan clinked the glasses with her and said, "Thank you."

Tang Rong put down her wine glass and looked around between the two of them.

"I heard that Xiaoxuan's carving skills were passed down from Mr. Cen. Even if she puts down carving while studying abroad, she is still very good when she picks up the carving knife again."

She said and looked at Shen Jiyuan, "Jiyuan, please be careful and don't let Xiaoxuan be bullied outside."

What he said meant something, but he had an ulterior motive.

Shen Muyao, who returned from the bathroom, happened to hear his mother's words and replied with a sneer.

"Don't worry, no one can bully her."

Cen Xuan raised his head when he heard this, his eyebrows curved into crescent moons, full of smiles.

"Second brother will learn from experience and lessons. I am indeed not that easy to mess with."

Thinking of what happened last time, Shen Muyao's face didn't look good.

This girl is really lawless, even if the third child is protecting her, even the old lady is partial to her.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the two of them are not getting along with each other.

"What you young people say is completely incomprehensible to us." Zhao Zhi joked with a smile.

The waiter brings the dessert.

The old lady turned the delicate cakes on the plate in front of Shen Jiyuan.

"This gold cake is your favorite, try it quickly."

Hearing this, Cen Xuan looked at the plate of golden snacks in front of the two of them.

Look at Shen Jiyuan's expressionless face again.

"Grandma, can I have a taste?"

Cen Xuan smiled and picked up a piece.

The old lady looked very happy, "Try it, the gold cake here is the best in Jianghuai, Ji Yuan likes it very much."

Tang Rong agreed with a smile.

"No matter how delicious this pastry is, it can't compare to your craftsmanship."

Old Mrs. Shen's pastry making skills are well known to the entire Jianghuai top circle.

If you are not close to the Shen family, you will definitely not be able to eat the cakes made by the old lady.

However, as she got older, the old lady's health became worse and worse, and she gradually became unable to cook so easily.

"I've also heard that the old lady's craftsmanship is superb. Even the best pastry chef in Jianghuai cannot compare to your craftsmanship."

Zhao Zhi's flattery made the old lady happy.

"As I get older, I seldom cook anymore, and my hands are already rusty."

Zhao Zhi nailed this point and said with a smile, "How can I? It takes a lifetime to learn a craft."

Cen Xuan took a bite of the pastry. It was sweet and glutinous, and she quite liked it.

But Shen Jiyuan has a light taste and rarely eats sweets.

It's the same even at home.

Thinking of this, Cen Xuan looked at Shen Jiyuan with doubts, and saw the latter taking a bite of the gold cake without changing his expression.

The whole snack was gone in a short while.

Cen Xuan said nothing, only stretched out her hand and handed him a cup of tea.

"What do you mean you are so happy?"

Cen Yao's voice came from behind the two of them.

Cen Xuan looked back and only noticed that her originally delicate skirt now looked a little messy.

And Cen Yao's eyes were a little more charming, not as aloof as usual.

"We are talking about the old lady's craftsmanship."

Cen Yao followed her mother's words, "When I went to the old store in the city center to buy pastries, the old masters there told me that you had gone there to learn for a while, and you were better than your master. I'm afraid the pastries in the entire Jianghuai area couldn't be compared. Your craft.”

The old lady's smile deepened at these words.

"I don't know what you will like when we meet for the first time. It's just a small gift, not a sign of respect."

The old lady took advantage of the situation and asked someone to pass the box she brought.

She thoughtfully prepared gifts for everyone in the Cen family, two pairs of diamond cufflinks, one pair for Cen Qingyue, and a pair for Cen Rui, who was still studying abroad and could not come back.

As for Cen Yao and her daughter, they have complete sets of ruby ​​jewelry.

Zhao Zhi looked beaming.

"Grandma, you are really generous." Shen Muyao looked at the things in the hands of several people and said.

The old lady smiled and said, "When you meet for the first time, you still need to be polite."

Tang Rong looked at Zhao Zhi's eyes gleaming with disdain.

How can one look at such a family?

Apart from anything else, this Zhao Zhi is well-known in the industry as someone who hates ghosts and abandons others.

No matter how you say it, the Zhan family is a high-class family, and there will never be such a philistine person in the family.

"I think Miss Cen's second daughter looks good in that gemstone necklace. Her skin is fair and it complements her." Shen Muyao said and praised, "Grandma's taste is getting better and better."

Zhao Zhi saw the clues between the two and said something immediately.

"Or maybe the Shen family has high standards."

Tang Rong looked at her son's expression and had a bad feeling in her heart.

This dinner was just a show. Although the Cen family was invited, they didn't have much say in the wedding.

The old lady also put down her words and decided to just see what Cen Xuan wanted to do.

Zhao Zhi was very dissatisfied with this decision.

While sitting in the car, I couldn't help but complain to Cen Qingyue.

"Since we are the elders of the Cen family, according to the rules, the betrothal gift must be in our hands. There is no reason to let her hold it by herself."

Those things, even if it was her son's turn, it should be her son's turn.

"Stop saying a few words. Didn't you see that the old lady was not happy just now?"

Cen Qingyue looked at her and yelled angrily.

"Am I wrong? Since ancient times, there has been no principle of letting daughters take away betrothal gifts. When that thing comes to the Cen family, it belongs to the Cen family. It should belong to Xiao Rui from now on."

Zhao Zhi was still extremely dissatisfied with this matter.

As she spoke, she looked at Cen Yao beside her, with a look of hatred on her face.

"Look, Cen Xuan can get so much dowry for the same marriage. Look at you, the Wen family only gave you a bigger house, which is not enough for anything. You are really poor."

Such a comparison shows that the attitudes of the two families are very different.

"What are you going to do with your child?" Cen Qingyue said dissatisfied.

Under the current situation, he couldn't live without the support of the Wen family.

If the Wen family rashly withdraws its investment at this time, he will not be able to support it, and there will definitely be a big problem.

Therefore, the marriage between Cen Yao and Wen Qian cannot cause trouble at this juncture.

"Look at her. She has the same upbringing style since she was a child. She has seen everything Cen Xuan has seen, and she has seen everything Cen Xuan has. Why is she so useless?" Zhao Zhi gritted her teeth when she mentioned this. Broken.

Cen Xuan has always been the best, and she had been abroad for so long.

Her maternal grandfather had also passed away many years ago. After death, everything was illusory.

As a result, she was able to hook up with the Shen family so quickly after Cen Yao and Wen Qian got engaged.

It is no exaggeration to say that the betrothal gift given by Mrs. Shen is as rich as a country and worth a city.

Why is this thing in her house so useless?

"I just saw that Shen Muyao is interested in you?" Zhao Zhi said.

Cen Qingyue also looked at Cen Yao after hearing this.

"Mom, what are you thinking about all day long?"

Cen Yao lowered her head and pressed her temples, feeling a severe headache.

"This is a good opportunity for you. Do you still want that little goblin to suppress you for the rest of your life? He is Shen Jiyuan's second brother after all. The child who grew up in front of Mr. Shen is better than Wen Qian in any way."

Cen Yao closed her eyes and leaned on the car seat, "I'm tired. Can you let me rest for a while?"

Upon seeing this, Zhao Zhi wanted to say something but was interrupted by Cen Qingyue.

"At a critical time when the company is undergoing mergers and acquisitions, you'd better not get into trouble with the Wen family at this juncture."

The merger and acquisition case between the two companies is to acquire the leading shopping mall chain in China.

Originally, there was a problem with Yinyu's capital chain, and there were too many separate projects.

The guarantee for this merger is Dongxu Group. If Cen Yao offends the Wen family at this time, I am afraid that there will be problems with the merger.

"I know."

Zhao Zhi heard what her husband said was not to abandon the Wen family, but not to make too much noise.

Her eyes lit up, it looked like there was something interesting about it.

"I failed to win Love's agency this time. I have lost the best opportunity, but we can't let problems happen again."

After listening to Cen Qingyue's words, Cen Yao opened her eyes and asked.

"Which company finally won Love's agency rights?"

This is Love's first sale of agency rights outside of country J. Many domestic jewelers are keeping an eye on it.

Yinyu has been preparing for this for a long time.

"It's QE."

Cen Yao seemed to have heard of this company, and it had won a lot of agency rights within a few years of its establishment.

The person in charge of the company is extremely visionary. In just three years, the market value of all the companies he invested in has doubled.

The company's market value has also doubled several times.

But the scope of this company's activities is outside K country, and they have never been involved in K country's business.

Why did he end up in K country this time?

"It is said that this is the first step for QE to open up the market in country K, and it has won a lot of praise."

Thinking of this, Cen Qingyue still felt unconvinced.

Yinyu was fully prepared, but he didn't expect to be intercepted midway.

"Dad, actually we may not be able to think differently." Cen Yao said.

Cen Qingyue sat up straighter and waited for her next words.

"QE has no foundation in China and is still in its infancy. If it wants to acquire such a large agency power and operate well domestically, it certainly needs the assistance of local companies."

So now QE may also be looking for domestic jewelry companies to cooperate.

Cen Qingyue shook his head, this was not a good idea.

"The project department has already connected with QE, and their asking price has no profit at all."

If you don’t do business for money, why else?

You can't work for nothing just for such an agency right.

"Dad, what you should be thinking about is the future."

Cen Yao said and started to persuade.

"This is not only Love's first agency in China, but also QE's first project. If this case can be completed and it becomes an instant hit, Yinyu's popularity will certainly follow suit in the future. .”

As long as he makes a name for himself this time, no matter what kind of case he wants in the future, he won't have it.

Cen Qingyue used to pay too much attention to immediate interests when he was doing business.

I never thought about the future development of the company, so I was suppressed by Cen Qingmu.

Now that I think about it, if I don't make appropriate sacrifices, I won't get anything.

"It's time to think about it."

Cen Qingyue said and dialed the secretary's phone number.

Seeing that the father and daughter had finished chatting, Zhao Zhi started chattering in Cen Yao's ear about Wen Qi'an and Shen Muyao.

She closed her eyes, and all she could hear in her ears was the man's breathing.

What he said when he was confused and infatuated.

"Do you think the old lady really loves him? It's just to make up for it."

People outside only knew that Shen Jiyuan's father left home when he was young. The Shen family didn't even know she existed until Shen Jiyuan was eighteen years old.

As for why Mrs. Shen wanted to make up for Shen Jiyuan, Cen Yao didn't know.

She had always thought that Shen Jiyuan was favored by Mr. Shen.

But if this is not the case, then there is still a chance for everything to turn around.

……

On the way back from the restaurant, Cen Xuan sat next to Shen Jiyuan.

Seeing the man lowering his head to deal with the work, she hesitated to speak and looked sideways out of the window.

When she looked at him for the fourth time, Shen Jiyuan closed the computer and reached out to lift the person to him.

Cen Xuan, who was lying by the window looking at the scenery, was hugged like this. After reacting, she hugged his neck out of habit.

"the fourth time."

"Ok?"

The man took off his glasses with one hand and put them aside, then lowered his head to find her soft lips.

"Mrs. Shen looked at me so many times. What do you want to do?"

Cen Xuan hooked his neck and ran her hands through his soft hair, wrapping the two of them in the faint scent of pine wood.

"You obviously don't like sweets."

The two of them had slept together for so many days, and she had a very clear idea of ​​Shen Jiyuan's taste.

She likes sweets, but Shen Jiyuan's taste is light.

Many times I reluctantly eat some sweets, only to be teased by her.

Last time at Shen's house, the snacks sent by the old lady were very sweet, and the gold cake this time was the same.

"Who says I don't like it?"

As the man spoke, he leaned forward to look for her soft lips. Every inch of her mouth was occupied by the domineering force.

Shen Jiyuan hugged her and rubbed his nose against hers.

"sweet."

Cen Xuan held his face with both hands, trying to see something from the man's eyes.

Unfortunately, his eyes were so clear that he couldn't distinguish anything.

"Mr. Shen, three times a week, you must abstain from sex today."

The man's hand on her waist tightened, and his voice was hoarse and low.

"Death under the peonies, even being a ghost is romantic..."
