Although Qin Yi was in the room just now, he heard everything that happened outside clearly.
Shen Zhengwen was still too young. Such a rushed operation, giving power and shares, even a fool would suspect there’s something fishy. In the end, bringing up him, this mysterious figure, to get Xia Yanbing to agree, was really a stupid move.
Qin Yi knew Xia Yanbing well. She wouldn’t easily invite someone to stay for dinner at home, but she invited Shen Zhengwen, definitely intending to get information out of him.
Shen Zhengwen lacks experience. If he drinks, beauty in front, it’s hard to say he won’t slip up.
The others didn’t really react to Qin Yi’s appearance.
But Shen Zhengwen was different. Seeing Qin Yi was like a bomb went off in his mind, leaving him completely stunned.
Why is Mr. Qin here? What is his relationship with the Xia Family?
Shen Zhengwen only knew of Qin Yi’s name, nothing else, as Liu Zhanyuan hadn’t told him. So seeing Qin Yi here so suddenly unsettled him completely.
Shen Zhengwen snapped back to reality and subconsciously wanted to bow to Qin Yi.
Qin Yi imperceptibly shook his head.
But Shen Zhengwen’s body had already moved towards Qin Yi in a submissive posture.
Everyone was staring at him in surprise.
"Mr. Shen, what’s this?" Xia Yanbing looked at Shen Zhengwen strangely, then turned to glance at Qin Yi.
Qin Yi sighed slightly. Still too young, lacking the composure compared to an old fox like Liu Zhanyuan.
Shen Zhengwen wasn’t a fool; otherwise, Liu Zhanyuan wouldn’t have taken a liking to him. He immediately said, "Nothing, suddenly felt a stomach ache, maybe because I drank cold water on the way."
"But you’re holding your stomach?" Lin Hongzhuang said with a strange expression.
"Uh..." Shen Zhengwen’s forehead was beaded with sweat, he laughed dryly, "This stomachache somehow spread to my belly."
"Oh dear, you young people just don’t know how to take care of yourselves. How could you drink cold water? Come on, sit down, have some hot water." Dong Jinsu said kindly.
"Thank you, Auntie." Shen Zhengwen took the hot water and drank a few sips, otherwise, he might have blown his cover.
"Mr. Shen, feeling better?" Dong Jinsu asked with genuine concern.
"Thank you, Auntie, much better." Shen Zhengwen straightened up, rubbed his stomach, and cast an unnoticed glance at Qin Yi, seeing no sign of anger from him, felt relieved.
Dong Jinsu glanced at Qin Yi, snorted disdainfully, turned around with a face full of ingratiating smiles, "Mr. Shen, you must take care of your health. Health is the capital of revolution. By the way, are you married?"
"I’m not yet." Shen Zhengwen instinctively replied.
Dong Jinsu beamed, "Mr. Shen, you’re really young and promising, quite the catch, just perfect for our little Xiaobing. You young people should interact more. You’ll work in the same company in the future, so take care of each other."
"Rest assured, Auntie, I will take good care of President Xia." Shen Zhengwen instinctively responded.
Qin Yi’s eyes darkened slightly, this old woman was doing it on purpose, these words were clearly directed at him. Quite shameless, to forget about the son-in-law she favored, Han Ning, so quickly?
Xia Yanbing’s brows furrowed slightly, Dong Jinsu’s words were obviously meant to humiliate Qin Yi.
"Mr. Shen, let me introduce, this is my husband, Qin Yi."
"What?" Shen Zhengwen felt like someone had hit him over the head with a stick, he exclaimed in shock.
This mysterious Mr. Qin was Xia Yanbing’s husband, what is going on? He had been wondering why Qin Yi was at the Xia family, what was his relation to them, but didn’t expect it to be ?
Xia Yanbing has a husband, so why did Dong Jinsu say he was a good match for Xia Yanbing earlier? He didn’t think much then and just agreed to take care of Xia Yanbing following Dong Jinsu’s words, but now thinking back... a chill ran from his back straight to his neck.
Shen Zhengwen, not being stupid, quickly realized. Probably Dong Jinsu didn’t know Qin Yi’s identity and thought he was just a cripple, hence not valuing Qin Yi... Damn, what had he said earlier?
Shen Zhengwen’s back was instantly drenched, forehead covered in cold sweat.
Actually, he did have thoughts about Xia Yanbing. Who wouldn’t admire such a beautiful and smart woman? But that was based on Xia Yanbing being single. But now Xia Yanbing was Mr. Qin’s wife, this... Shen Zhengwen wanted to cry, he was really going to be ruined by this old woman Dong Jinsu.
"Mr. Shen, are you okay?" Xia Yanbing looked at the sweaty Shen Zhengwen in bewilderment.
"Ah?" Shen Zhengwen came back to himself, smiling pale-faced at Qin Yi, "Hello Mr. Qin!"
Qin Yi nodded slightly, "Hello!"
Seeing Qin Yi’s expressionless face, Shen Zhengwen’s heart was in his throat. Although he said he’d take care of Xia Yanbing just to placate Dong Jinsu, words spoken without intent may still be taken seriously. What if Mr. Qin misunderstood?
Even Chairman Liu and Director Dong were respectful in front of Mr. Qin. What was he compared to them? If Mr. Qin so much as flicked his fingers, his life could be over.
Shen Zhengwen grew more and more fearful, knees trembling, his smile worse than a cry, "President Xia, my stomach ache is really bad, I’ll forgo dinner and go back to take some medicine."
Finishing, he hurriedly walked towards the door, his departure clearly appearing as an escape.
"Mr. Shen, have some food before you leave." Dong Jinsu called out.
A loud bang was the response, startling everyone, all looking in bewilderment at Shen Zhengwen sprawled on the ground.
Everyone clearly saw Shen Zhengwen suddenly knock his head against the door for no apparent reason.
"Mr. Shen, are you alright?" Xia Yanbing quickly walked over.
Shen Zhengwen scrambled up from the floor in a panic, clutching his forehead, staggering out, and by the time Xia Yanbing and the others reached the door, Shen Zhengwen’s car was already a good distance away.
"Is this person sick?" Lin Hongzhuang said with a strange expression.
Xia Yanbing’s gemstone-like eyes narrowed slightly, "Linlin, don’t you think Mr. Shen seemed scared just now?"
"Scared of what? Do I look terrifying to you? Could it be he’s afraid of Qin Yi, the wheelchair knight?"
Damn... Qin Yi grinned, this woman actually gave him a random nickname, you’re the wheelchair knight, your whole family are wheelchair knights.
Xia Yanbing glared at Lin Hongzhuang, annoyed. Her best friend’s mouth could really be venomous.
Lin Hongzhuang looked at the door, suddenly laughed, "Wow, he hit it hard, dented the door. Must be bleeding, right? Really a weirdo. No brain damage should’ve bought some with that hit."
Xia Yanbing shook her head, something still didn’t seem right?
Lin Hongzhuang laughed, "Bingbing, stop worrying. Didn’t he say he had a stomach ache?"
"I still feel something’s off." Xia Yanbing muttered.
Xia Yanbing looked at her in surprise.
Lin Hongzhuang teasingly said, "Some people’s hero must have appeared again. Probably so enamored, heart pounding uncontrollably, right?"
