Chapter 40

intentionally scanning over the invitation card."This morning Fang from that side called me. The intern surnamed Xia you brought made a low-level error, and they are very doubtful of our business capa..."Huang Manager!" Shen Wei let go of his hand, turned to face him, his eyes flashing a warning. "You were drunk and misunderstood something, how did you end up blaming me"

Mr. Huang got to his position today by leveraging connections and spending a lot of money. Everyone calls him Mr. Huang, but he's actually just a deputy because the regular manager was transferred and the position has been vacant ever since. He just wants to keep up appearances.

Compared to the Shen family, or even the future alliance with the Huo family, he, just a deputy manager of a company's business department, wouldn't have enough lives.

He slumped to the ground in despair, murmuring, “Yes, it was me. I was blinded by lust.”

He turned to plead with Fu Yan, "I'm sorry, Miss Fu, please forgive me. I didn't do anything wrong, did I Please forgive me, whatever condition you want, just say it, I can afford any amount of money."

Fu Yan endured the nausea, ironically, those same words coming from his mouth were filled with obscenities. She didn't even give him an extra glance.

But all he could do now was turn to Fu Yan.

Shen Wei threatened him, and Huo Mingzheng dared not resist. He knelt on the ground and crawled towards Fu Yan. Cao Fang kicked him over with one foot, "This is Miss Huo's family, you can't afford to pay for a single strand of her hair!"

Wong the manager was dumbfounded. What a Miss Ho, she clearly said her surname was Fu!

No, the Huo family, the Huo family has a daughter-in-law from another surname. She is the adopted daughter of the late Fifth Master Huo.

Even if she were marginalized by the Huo family, she was still Huo Mingzheng's cousin in name!

Huang, the manager, went black in front of his eyes and fell to the ground unable to get up.

Cao Fang stepped forward to check, "General Huo, he's fainted."

Huo Mingzheng gave a cold glance, then turned and walked out of the room.

Fu Yan told Fu Jing, "I'm going to the restroom."

Her hair and clothes were messy, her hands covered in soup. She didn't want to leave the hotel looking so disheveled.

Fu Jing was unable to accompany her, so he waited for her at the door of the room. Shen Wei walked up, "Xiao Yan, I'll go with you."

Fu Yan ignored her, letting her follow.

The bathroom door is closed.

Fu Yan opened the faucet and washed her hands.

Shen Wei inhaled deeply, "Xiao Yan, you really misunderstood me."

"Stop, don't make me vomit," Fu Yan closed the tap.

"I'm asking you again, where did you go just now"

Shen Wei urged, "Didn't I just say I was going to answer the phone"

Fu Yan smiled coldly, imitating Ji Lin's tone: "You're full of it!"

Shen Wei didn't expect her to be so straightforward, his face flushed red and white.

"Shen Wei, don't pretend anymore, I know you did this on purpose. Tonight was your trap!"

Shen Wei didn't want to pretend anymore, her expression changed in a second, she sneered: "So what Do you have any evidence"

What do you want, for me to be ruined and disgraced

"What am I after" Shen Wei retorted, closing in on her, his teeth gritted. "A-Zheng is my fiancé. What happened in the dressing room that day, you know it clearly in your heart. Don't you have any shame!"

Fu Yan looked at her, she was right, Shen Wei did know something.

Though that day's events weren't her doing willingly, she had felt a sliver of guilt towards Shen You. But now, it was gone without a trace.

Why don't you ask Huo Mingzheng if he has any shame

"You slut!" Shen Wei flew into a rage, grabbing a paper tube and throwing it at her. "You're sleeping with your own cousin!"

Fu Yan lowered her head to look at the paper cylinder rolling at her feet. Shen Yu was right about one thing.

She silently adjusted her collar.

"Well, speechless now aren't you" Shen Wei laughed triumphantly. "A-Zheng is mine, he sleeps with me legitimately, while you are nothing but his pastime, something for him to enjoy in his spare time, something that will never see the light of day!"

Ignoring her arrogance, Fu Yan walked out of the bathroom. Shen Yi only retracted his anger and followed him out, once again putting on an elegant and knowledgeable appearance.

Manager Huang's whereabouts were unknown. A waiter was mopping the floor, and the metallic smell of blood still lingered in the room. Fu Yan felt a surge of nausea.

"Aren't you leaving yet"

Shen Wei quickly followed up and hooked his arm.

However, Huo Mingzheng stopped short.

"Azheng" Shen Wei looked up at him.

"Pay the crimson," Huo Mingzheng suddenly spoke.ose diamond brooch from her bag.“This is what I found on the floor of the room. It wasn’t there when I first went in, it must have fallen off that person.”Mrs. Shen took the brooch, "This style is for...
