Nie Yucheng was looking at the menu. Hearing this, he raised his head and glanced at Shen Wanci who was quietly drinking lemonade. Without any hesitation, he said: "This kind of thing, Wanci wouldn't do. If she really wanted to introduce someone to me, she would ask for my opinion first. Miss Shen Xuan, if you particularly like doing this kind of mischief, please change tables."

Shen Wanci raised her eyes in surprise.

She and Nie Yucheng's friendship wasn't to the point where he unconditionally trusted her. If it were in the past, he would have most likely just brushed it off with a polite remark that wouldn't make either of them uncomfortable.

She had never seen him so rude to a woman, not even those who were more willful and demanding than Shen Xuan.

Shen Xuan's face was flushed red with embarrassment, she wished she could immediately dig a hole in the ground and hide.

Although Nie Yu's voice wasn't loud, and the distance between tables wasn't short, she felt as if everyone was staring at her. Even the low whispers that couldn't hear the content had become sarcastic remarks directed at her.

She bit her lip and whispered in a choked voice, "Yu Cheng ge, you misunderstood me. I didn't... I didn't... Everything I said is true, it really was my sister who promised to introduce us..."

Nie Yucheng: “I apologize, I’m not comfortable with people I don't know calling me brother. Please call me 'Mr. Nie'.”

Shen Wanci couldn't hold back and let out a 'poof' of laughter.

Look, men are actually masters at identifying women. It's not that they can't tell the difference between a green tea girl and a white lotus flower, it's just whether or not they are willing to be deceived.

Bo Jingzhou willingly let himself be deceived, and he was even willing to be deceived.

This time, Shen Xuan really couldn't hold it in anymore. She didn't expect Nie Yucheng, who looked like a refined and elegant young master, to be so rude to a girl, and he even said those harsh words in front of Shen Wanci.

This is simply like ripping her face off and stomping on it.

She couldn't even bother with politeness anymore. She stood up abruptly, her eyes red and blazing as she glared at the two people in front of her: "You've gone too far." With that, she turned and ran away.

But as soon as she stepped out of the restaurant, she regretted it. She had already paid for it, so there was no reason not to eat.

Shen Xuan folded back, deliberately choosing a hidden spot that could still see Shen Wanci's position, and took out her phone to snap pictures of the two.

She must make that dog and bitch couple pay.

Shen Wanci briefly summarized the situation for Nie Yucheng. "I'm sorry, I was planning to ask you out for dinner and discuss this with you beforehand, but I didn't expect to run into you like this today."

Nie Yu Cheng smiled helplessly, "You should have told me sooner. Will she threaten you with your mother's belongings now?"

"My mom left behind nothing of value, I suppose," Shen Wanci didn't want to continue the topic. "I just didn't expect you to have this brazen side as well."

I'm a very protective person, I can't stand to see my friends bullied by those riffraff.

Shen Wanci: "..."

Brother, protecting your own isn't done this way, but it doesn't seem like there's anything wrong with it either.

After dinner, Nie Yu Cheng sent Shen Wan Ci to the apartment building downstairs. "Get some rest early,"

Shen Wanci: "Good, thanks for helping me with the house. I've transferred the rent to you, remember to receive it."

She just checked the rental prices for this area, and they are one thousand yuan higher than market price. She transferred the money to Nie Yucheng because his place is truly move-in ready, clean and tidy, even providing bedding.

……

Bo Jingzhou had been attending several meetings consecutively today, busy beyond measure. When he saw the few messages Shen Wanci had sent him, several hours had already passed.

He glared at his phone screen, his temples throbbing with anger at the vulgar and offensive words he was reading.

I dialed Shen Wanci's number directly, "Sorry, the number you have dialed is currently in use."

After ten or so minutes, he called again, but it was still the same.

Bo Jingzhou looked at Shen Wanci's name on the screen, laughed angrily, and his deep eyes were so dark that they seemed to freeze everything in sight.

Just as Chen Xu walked in with the files for him to look over, he said: “Send a message to Shen Wanci, tell her that if she doesn't move back to Yu Ting Courtyard, she will sleep on the streets from now on.”

Chen Xu: "..."

These days, he's the one responsible for contacting Ms. Shen's landlord and putting pressure on her. Today, he stirred up trouble with her new rental again. His conscience is currently being severely condemned, and he also feels that if Mr. Bo continues to behave this way, he will definitely lose his wife. The atmosphere in Mr. Bo's office these days is so tense that even going to the bathroom requires you to be on edge: "Mr. Bo, considering Ms. Shen's personality, she would probably rather sleep on the streets than move back because of your threats..."

Otherwise, would we still be waiting until now?

Seeing that Bo Jingzhou remained unmoved, he cautiously added, "Why don't you buy some gifts to appease Miss Shen? Women are easily swayed by tenderness, not force..."

Bo Jingzhou looked at him with a sullen expression, "She hit me, and I still have to buy her gifts to appease her? Do you think I'm like you, a spineless lickspittle without dignity?"

Chen Xu knew everything about his first love in college.

Back then, when he got kicked out, now seeing that woman again, he went up to her fawningly, but she had a new love in hand and didn't pay him any attention.

Chen Xu: You speak as you speak, how can you still be so hurtful!

"General Bo is not a sycophant, General Bo is the domineering CEO. I'm going to message Miss Shen right now, word for word, to make sure I convey General Bo's meaning accurately."

When Shen Wanci received the message from Chen Xu, she was just lying on the soft bed in her apartment after a hot shower.

After reading the text message, she let out a cold laugh and completely ignored it.

The next day, Shen Wanci went to a specialized art supply store and replenished some tools.

She didn't bother with the fact that she was put on temporary leave by the studio; after all, they had said it beforehand. It was just a favor, a temporary gig. She still had several personal projects in hand, so she might as well use this time to finish them.

Bo Jingzhou didn't know that she was Wanwan, so he naturally wouldn't stop her from taking private jobs.

Thinking about this, Shen Wanci couldn't help but chuckle self-deprecatingly. With Bo Jingzhou's power, if he really wanted to investigate, it would be impossible not to find out. However, because he knew Bo Jingzhou didn't care, the people below didn't put in so much effort.

Be a bit more serious so as not to cause a misunderstanding that she's working as a cleaner in Beijing.

So besides moving, her life wasn't too much affected.

Compared to the ease and comfort on Shen Wanci's side, the atmosphere at the Bo family was abysmal. After another executive was berated by President Bo until he was left defeated and disheartened, Chen Xu took a deep breath and knocked on the door before entering.

"General Bo"

Bo Jingzhou stared at the files in front of him with an impassive face. "Where did she stay last night?"

Unable to rent a room, and hotels wouldn't give her a room either, Qin Yuezhi had nowhere else to go besides returning to the Bo family.

Chen Xu felt a chill run down his spine and his hairs stood on end as he stammered, "Ms. Shen stayed at Mr. Nie's apartment last night."
