Lost Love Rediscovered: Husband, take it easy

Chapter 97 Crisis of Trust
The most important thing in the relationship between the two is trust.Once this thing is lost, the relationship becomes vulnerable.At this moment, there seems to be a crisis of trust between Li Manrong and Xia Sihan.

Throughout the morning, Xia Sihan stayed in the office without leaving for half a step.Li Manrong felt strange in her heart, but did not ask.

Xia Sihan also looked thoughtful when eating in the staff restaurant.Seeing this, Li Manrong asked with concern: "Sihan, what's wrong with you, is there something on your mind?"

Looking at those eyes that were as clear as water, Xia Sihan suddenly didn't know how to speak.There are some things that want to be said, but it is not a simple matter.

Putting down his chopsticks and crossing his hands on the table, Xia Sihan pretended to be casual and said, "Man Rong, have you met Shangguan Yanting recently?"

The pupils dilated instinctively, and Li Manrong was startled.Although her performance was very small, Xia Sihan still caught her strangeness.Heart, gradually sinking.

I remember talking to Mo Linlang last time, it's better not to let Xia Sihan know about this matter.Thinking of this, Li Manrong replied with a smile: "No, what's the matter?"

Hearing her denial, Xia Sihan lowered his eyes in disappointment.If she could tell him directly, maybe he would feel better.Deliberate concealment made things even more confusing.

With a shallow arc, Xia Sihan said with a light smile: "It's nothing, just ask."

Paying attention to his expression, Li Manrong always felt that the matter was not simple.But she has never been in the habit of delving into it, so she keeps her doubts in her heart.Everyone had their own thoughts on this meal.

After dinner, the two returned to the office together.In the elevator, Xia Sihan suddenly said: "I said last time that if I want to invite Shangguan Yanting and his future wife to dinner, why not choose today?"

"Today?" Li Manrong looked at him in surprise, with a puzzled expression on her face, "Don't the company still have a lot of things to deal with?"

Holding her hand and interlocking his fingers, Xia Sihan replied with a smile: "Actually, this is the end of the matter, and there is no point in doing anything else. I just want to settle the matter of treating guests, so that I can also deal with all the problems." Focus on you and your work."

Seeing that what he said made sense, Li Manrong nodded and agreed: "Yes, that's fine."

"Then I'll ask my assistant to inform the arrangement. It's so sudden, I don't know if Shangguan Yanting has time." Xia Sihan said with a smile, "But with you here, he should come."

Li Manrong always felt that Xia Sihan was weird today, but she couldn't figure out what went wrong.A man's heart is also difficult to guess.

Just as Xia Sihan thought, Shangguan Yanting readily agreed.Just why he agreed, I am afraid that only he himself can guess clearly.

Howe Hotel, on the roof of the top floor.The performers were playing melodious repertoire there, and the four of them sat facing each other, and none of them broke the silence.

In the end, Xia Sihan was the first to raise the wine glass, and said congratulatoryly, "Congratulations, Mr. Shangguan, for winning this project competition."

Shangguan Yanting also raised the goblet, and said calmly: "Chengyi, I just didn't expect that your company's designers would actually plagiarize our company's design works."

Hearing this, Xia Sihan was not angry, and said with a smile: "Who is plagiarizing whom, this point needs to be investigated carefully. As for the result, I am more interested in knowing than Mr. Shangguan."

Listening to the two of them arguing, Li Manrong ate quietly.Qin Zhen took food for Shangguan Yanting thoughtfully, and said with a smile like a flower: "Yanting, this is what you like to eat."

Li Manrong glanced casually, and suddenly remembered that during the time they were together, she seldom served him food.Is it because he doesn't have that habit, or is he unwilling to accept it?Shaking her head, Lian Rong didn't continue to think about it.

Xia Sihan looked at Li Manrong tenderly, and said with a smile, "Man Rong, let's toast Mr. Shangguan together."

After humming, Li Manrong picked up the wine glass and said, "Mr. Shangguan, I respect you."

Shangguan Yanting looked at her indifferently, with a calm expression: "No need."

His refusal came so suddenly, Li Manrong was caught off guard for a while.Xia Sihan said friendlyly: "Mr. Shangguan is so disrespectful? In fact, Man Rong and I are able to have today thanks to Mr. Shangguan's fulfillment. You can afford this glass of wine."

Eyes narrowed slightly, Shangguan Yanting's whole body was filled with oppression.The two looked at each other with a cold light in their eyes.Qin Zhen picked up the wine and said with a smile: "Why don't I replace Yan Ting, I hope you can blossom and bear fruit soon."

Glancing at her blankly, Shangguan Yanting said indifferently: "I don't need anyone to replace me." After speaking, he picked up the wine, looked at Li Manrong coldly, and drank it down.

Qin Zhen didn't expect that he would not give her face in public, and was annoyed in her heart, but she could only swallow the bitterness in her heart. "I don't know when Mr. Shangguan plans to get married. At that time, I will prepare a wedding gift for Mr. Shangguan." Xia Sihan said so.

"October [-]th." Shangguan Yanting replied calmly.

October 20th... Li Manrong silently read a sentence in her heart.It is now September NO.[-], and the day when he is going to get married is really not far away.

Just when Li Manrong was silent and distracted, Xia Sihan said leisurely: "It seems that I have to quicken my pace."

After these words fell, Li Manrong and Shangguan Yanting looked at him in unison.In the next second, an icicle-like gaze landed on Li Manrong: "Are you getting married?"

Just as Li Manrong was about to answer, Xia Sihan said warmly: "My parents like Man Rong very much. It is a matter of time before we get married. As long as Man Rong nods and agrees, we can get married at any time."

Hearing that she had met his parents, Shangguan Yanting felt a pain in his heart.What he didn't expect was that their development would be so fast.Without any congratulatory words, Shangguan Yanting picked up the wine glass and drank it down in one gulp.

Seeing his expression, Xia Sihan smiled with satisfaction.This was the result he wanted, and he hoped that Shangguan Yanting's thoughts could be stopped as soon as possible.It is also a man, Xia Sihan sees it more clearly than Li Manrong.He still loves her.

A meal ends in an unhappiness.In the bathroom, Li Manrong and Qin Zhen met.Looking at the plain-faced woman in front of him, but still unable to ignore her beauty, Qin Zhen's eyes were full of jealousy: "Li Manrong, do you know how annoying you are?"

Not intending to ignore it, Li Manrong turned and left. "Today I just want to tell you that Yan Ting is destined to be my Qin Zhen's man, my husband alone. No other woman can take him away from me." Qin Zhen said firmly.

Looking back at her, Li Manrong replied calmly: "I never thought of fighting with you, and I don't need it now. You should have confidence in him. Since he decided to marry you, he won't go back on his word."

"As long as you don't try to provoke him, he will not be shaken." Qin Zhen said so.Before getting married, she doesn't want any surprises.After getting married, she will settle the score with Li Manrong properly.

She smiled bitterly, but she didn't let her see: "Even if I want to provoke him, he won't, he doesn't love me." After speaking, Li Manrong left slowly.

With a cold snort, Qin Zhen said in a low voice: "Even if he loves you, I won't let you take him away so easily. As long as I can conceive his child, I will definitely be able to keep him."

After what happened today, Qin Zhen understands better that she must have close contact with Shangguan Yanting as soon as possible.Otherwise, Li Manrong might snatch it all away at any time.

After parting, Xia Sihan sent Li Manrong home.On the way back, neither of them spoke.It wasn't until the car stopped in front of the apartment that he said, "Shan, I always feel that you are acting weird today."

Staring at the front, there was a vague smile on his lips: "Really?"

For some reason, Li Manrong didn't like him like this.Opening the car door, Li Manrong said flatly: "It's very late, go back and rest early, be careful on the road."

Before getting out of the car, his wrist was held by him.Li Manrong turned her head and looked at him suspiciously.After thinking for a long time, Xia Sihan finally said: "I received a document this morning, and there are some photos in it. It's the photo of you meeting him yesterday."

Li Manrong opened her eyes wide in surprise, with surprise in her eyes. "Yesterday..." Li Manrong finally understood why he was so abnormal today, "You suspect that I leaked the information to Shangguan Yanting?"

Staring into her eyes, Xia Sihan asked seriously: "Man Rong, I will only ask you once. No matter what your answer is, I am willing to believe you. Did you leak the blueprint?"

Hearing his words, Li Manrong was filled with disappointment.She never thought that Xia Sihan would doubt her. "No." Li Manrong said firmly, "I didn't tell you that I met him, but I just didn't want you to misunderstand."

Looking into her eyes intently, after a while, Xia Sihan smiled with relief: "Okay, I believe you. Man Rong, I care about you so much that I don't want to lose you."

In the past, she was not so concerned about gains and losses when it came to feelings.Opening his hands to give him a hug, Li Manrong said softly, "I'm sorry for making you worry."

Hugging her back, Xia Sihan said with a slight smile: "Man Rong, I'll take you upstairs." Li Manrong hummed lightly, which was her agreement.

When she came to the gate, Li Manrong opened the door, but before she walked in, someone grabbed her wrist.Turning around, Li Manrong looked at him puzzled: "Sihan, is there anything else?"

He felt a little uneasy, he didn't know if she could accept what he said next. "Tonight, I want to stay." Xia Sihan said so.

Looking at him in astonishment, Li Manrong took a long while before she realized it.Her eyes twinkled, Li Manrong said unnaturally: "Next time, it's too late tonight."

Having already expected such a result, Xia Sihan's face showed obvious disappointment: "Man Rong, until now, you still can't accept me?"

If there was no such thing as Shangguan Yanting, he wouldn't mind waiting any longer, but now he is terrified.He was afraid that the result of continuing to wait would be to lose her completely.

"I..." Li Manrong said hesitantly.For a while, I didn't know how to answer.
