Although she and he weren't exactly close, they weren't strangers either.

Shen Xuan looked at him, and asked with a hint of doubt, "When did Young Master Yan return to the country?"

"Get in the car, let me show you around. I haven't seen you in so long, I asked you out, you're not going to refuse, are you?!"

Shen Xuan thought for a moment, then said with some difficulty, "You're too kind. But I have some things to do, so I might not have time to go out with you."

Li Siyuan stared intently at them, his mind replaying the words Yan Anxun had spoken to him a couple of days ago.

Is this guy really planning to pursue Shen Xuan?

Thinking this, he unconsciously took out his phone, preparing to call Yan Anxun.

On the other end, Yan Anxun hung up immediately without saying a word as soon as he saw the number on the caller ID.

“Miss Shen, we’ve known each other for a long time. Your ex-husband is my brother, after all. Do you think I’m going to eat you up?” Yan Anxun rested his elbow on the car window, crossed his legs, and spoke with a hint of mockery.

Hearing him deliberately draw out the word "ex-husband," Shen Xuan felt a pang of discomfort.

It's said that you shouldn't mess with your friend's wife, but now that she's divorced, does he think he can just play around with his friend's ex-wife?

It seems he won't give up easily if she doesn't get into his car.

Li Siyuan rolled down the car window, and Shen Xuan stood on the steps, seemingly drawn to the light reflected from the opposite car window.

When did that man start sitting silently across from her for so long without her realizing that the car belonged to him?

Shen Xuan stared blankly for a moment, her gaze falling on the man's slightly aloof face, and her heart trembled inexplicably.

Seeing the peculiar emotion in his eyes, her heart tightened.

A thought popped into Shen Xuan's mind: she wanted to get a little revenge on him.

So, she deliberately blinked a few times, pretended to casually walk around, and got into Yan Anxun's car.

Seeing this, Yan Anxun chuckled and deliberately reached out to gently put his arm around her shoulder.

Before Shen Xuan could react, the vehicle had already started smoothly and driven into the distance.

Sensing the car accelerating, Shen Xuan quickly pulled her hand away from his and deliberately sat to the side, keeping her distance from him.

"Young Master Yan, please have some self-respect."

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to!" He nervously withdrew his hand, placed it on his thigh, and rubbed his hands together nervously.

Li Siyuan's face was extremely ugly, while Jiang Yu in the driver's seat stared at Li Siyuan the whole time, his eyes never leaving the rearview mirror.

Jiang Yu had never seen his CEO with such an expression.

Thinking that Yan Anxun actually had the courage to pursue Shen Xuan, Jiang Yu couldn't help but feel a sense of admiration.

This is blatantly provoking Li Siyuan's bottom line.

"Young Master Yan, when did you return to China?"

To avoid an awkward atmosphere, Shen Xuan took the initiative to ask.

"Didn't Miss Shen deeply love Li Siyuan? How come she secretly got a divorce?" Yan Anxun put on a nonchalant attitude.

He knew everything about the emotional entanglement between the two of them.

For some reason, even though I knew perfectly well what was going on, I still pretended to ask.

Shen Xuan pursed her lips and said, "You should know better than anyone who Li Siyuan truly loves."

"I will help you prove this to you, and let you see who Li Siyuan truly loves!"

Yan Anxun stroked his chin, his expression meaningful.

Although he was abroad for three years and didn't know much about the relationship between Shen Xuan and Li Siyuan, he was very familiar with Han Xin.

When the two were both in England, they often got together when they had nothing to do.

In contrast, Shen Xuan was different; she remained alone in the country throughout her life.

Li Siyuan often travels between the two places, and he has become accustomed to it.

Shen Xuan rested her chin on her hands and leaned her head against the car window.

Beside him, Yan Anxun's phone kept ringing.

She glanced casually at his arrogant face and saw his brows furrow slightly. She couldn't help but ask, "Young Master Yan, you took me away in front of Li Siyuan, but now you don't dare to answer his call?"

He smiled calmly: "Ms. Shen, what do you think your ex-husband wants by calling me all this time?"

Shen Xuan was speechless for a moment.

The car then came to a smooth stop in a corner of the bustling commercial district.

Shen Xuan pushed open the door and got out of the car. As the window slowly rolled down, Yan Anxun leaned out and waved goodbye to her: "Goodbye! Good luck."

Shen Xuan smoothed the stray hairs from her forehead, put her hands in her pockets, and let the wind blow her hair into disarray. She glanced at him sideways, then turned and walked to the side.

Yan Anxun's car drove away from her without any haste.

The wind seemed unusually cold today, and it stung her face slightly as it blew against her. Standing by the roadside, she instinctively wrapped her coat tighter around herself.

Then, Cheng Lu sent a message informing her that she had boarded the plane.

Shen Xuan turned off her phone and continued to wait by the roadside for a reply to the call she had just made.

A black sedan was parked quietly not far away.

Jiang Yu gripped the steering wheel and glanced at Li Siyuan's calm face through the rearview mirror. He cautiously suggested, "Sir, why don't you ask Madam to get in the car to escape the cold?"

Shen Xuan's eyes darted around, and he rubbed his hands together, as if a chill was rising in his heart.

Thinking of Shen Xuan's indifferent attitude towards him just now, Li Siyuan's eyes couldn't help but reveal a hint of coldness.

Several minutes later, an inconspicuous black sedan stopped in front of her.

"Miss!" The man got out of the car, opened the door, and greeted her politely.

Rather than being polite, it was more like a way of urging her to get in the car.

Shen Xuan estimated his background and recognized him as the driver sent by the Shen family. He simply responded, opened the door, and got in.

Shen Xuan remained silent throughout the journey, while the driver would occasionally glance at her through the rearview mirror.

He sighed inwardly, thinking how this young lady had been so determined to marry into the Li family three years ago, yet now she was just as determined to leave.

Shen Xuan seemed to sense his confusion and took the initiative to ask, "How has the Shen family been lately?"

Recalling his father's tone on the phone last time, Shen Zhentao knew he must have been quite angry with his daughter.

The driver glanced at her through the rearview mirror and then replied, "The boss hasn't been feeling well lately. He's lost a lot of weight because of the Shen Group's situation."

It is conceivable that someone like my father would be greatly affected if the Shen Group were to experience any disturbance.

Shen family villa.

When Shen Xuan stepped out of the car, not a single servant came out to greet her.

The tightly closed door seemed to be drawing a line between her and the outside world.

The iron gate slowly opened only after the driver pulled up to the entrance.

Shen Xuan pushed open the door and entered the house. Zhuang Yaoshu and Shen Feiyan were watching a variety show on TV and were having a great time.

The two of them were laughing very happily.

Upon seeing Shen Xuan enter, Shen Feiyan happily exclaimed, "Sister, you're back!"

Looking at this heartwarming scene, Shen Xuan felt a pang of sadness.
