Now that Li Siyuan has discovered his misconduct, given Li Siyuan's personality, he will not let it go easily.

Guan Chengxin glanced at her and said, "You're quite good at complimenting people."

Shen Xuan stared at him blankly. "I'm telling the truth."

"Alright, I've lived so many years longer than you, how could my ability to judge people be lacking?"

"..." Shen Xuan didn't know what to say.

"How about we make a bet? The loser calls me 'brother'? With another little sister, your brother will take care of you in the future!"

He looked ahead with a determined expression, his tone full of confidence.

Just then, the phone rang.

Guan Chengxin tapped the screen a few times and said to her with an all-knowing look, "See? Trouble is coming."

Shen Xuan looked at him with some skepticism, then took out her phone from her bag and saw that the name displayed on the screen was indeed President Wang.

"If it's inconvenient for you to answer, how about I answer it for you?"

She observed his profile carefully several times and increasingly felt that this guy was like a worm in her stomach, able to grasp things so perfectly.

Then he grabbed her phone and said, "Let me answer it. I'm afraid you'll be too soft-hearted and let this beast go. You'd better be ready to call me 'brother' then."

Shen Xuan's face was full of black lines, and she had no idea how to refute him.

"Be careful, don't offend your business partners."

"With your brother here, what are you worried about?"

Hearing her call him "taxi driver" repeatedly left her speechless, considering their age difference of more than ten years.

However, it wouldn't be bad if an older person were to be the older brother.

Inside an airport in a certain city, Han Xin was wearing a mask, black sunglasses that covered most of her face, and a large down jacket and hat that made her difficult to recognize.

She was carrying a baby in her arms and pulling a suitcase as she walked out.

Ye Fan immediately stepped forward to help carry the things.

"Xin Xin, long time no see, you've become even more beautiful. Why didn't Young Master An come back with you?"

He looked around but couldn't find An Zihao, so he asked a question.

“He’s been quite busy lately, so don’t worry!” she replied calmly, a gentle smile on her face.

When An Zihao was mentioned, her eyes didn't show much emotion; instead, they seemed a little annoyed.

"These past few days, the old lady has missed you terribly. She heard that you came back especially to celebrate her birthday, and she's overjoyed. She's been smiling all the time, and even her enemies seem adorable now!"

Ye Fan and Han Xin have a close relationship, more like family, so they always have endless topics to talk about.

He was aware of his own situation, and therefore always held Han Xin's illustrious background in high esteem.

"Miss Xin, you're not in a hurry to go abroad this time, are you?"

Pushing her suitcase, the two soon arrived at the airport entrance.

"It depends on the specific situation. I have some things to take care of first."

She brushed a stray hair from her forehead, and the baby in her arms made a soft sound. She gently patted the child's back and whispered, "Baby, Mommy is taking you to find Daddy."

Ye Fan was busy unloading things from the trunk and didn't notice what Han Xin had just said.

Meanwhile, standing by a luxurious outdoor swimming pool was An Zihao.

Black sunglasses covered half of his face.

Her tight-fitting swimsuit reflected the sunlight, as if all her worries had been swept away by the bright sunshine.

"Young Master An..." someone walked towards the pool from a short distance away and greeted him.

"She went back?" He took off his glasses and put them on his head, then put his hands on his hips and did some stretching.

"Madam has arrived home safely. Doesn't Young Master An plan to go and check on her?"

He turned halfway around, his eyes revealing his displeasure: "Haven't I told you many times? Xin Xin doesn't like this nickname, so you're not allowed to use it again."

"Okay, okay, Miss Han is home safely!" the other person quickly corrected, while muttering to themselves.

Although the couple had been married for many months, their relationship was like that of strangers, which was very puzzling.

"in addition……"

An Zihao raised his arm to signal his subordinates to listen carefully, "Find me a reliable person to follow her. Don't interfere with what she wants to do, just do what she wants."

"Should we inform Mr. Li?" the other party asked hesitantly.

"No need to trouble him, Xin Xin can handle everything herself."

As he said this, An Zihao's eyes were full of affection.

I originally thought marriage was based on love, but I never expected it to turn out to be a misunderstanding.

Han Xin married him for another reason—to take revenge on Li Siyuan, who had hurt her in the past.

It wasn't until the media reported on their private affairs that they were forced to officially register as a legal couple in order to save face and maintain their social standing.

As her pain gradually healed, she slowly distanced herself from the relationship.

It was all because he was too soft-hearted that he misjudged the woman's thoughts and actions, and in the end, he could only accept that the reality was beyond his expectations.

Shen Xuan sat at his desk browsing the latest news: Rumors were circulating that the Lu family heir, who had been living overseas for a long time, was about to return to China and take over the family business.

Staring at the information on the screen for a long time, a mix of complex emotions welled up inside me.

Suddenly my phone notified me of a new message.

He glanced at it sideways, then picked it up and looked at it: "I'll pick you up for dinner after get off work." It was a message from Li Siyuan.

The reply was straightforward: "No time."

"Do you expect me to come and 'invite' you myself?" The other person's words carried a forceful demand.

He reiterated, "There really isn't time."

"How about I come to your company directly? Or I can stay and work overtime with you."

Staring at the chat history for a long time, Shen Xuan was stunned...

Since what happened last night, she had a vague feeling that this person was going to start bothering her again.

After only a few days of peace, is he trying to harass us again?

Guan Chengxin knocked lightly on the door and walked in easily.

Because he was looking at the documents, he didn't notice her flustered appearance.

She quickly turned off her phone screen and looked up at him.

"Is something wrong?" she asked.

"Here you go!" He handed her a stack of documents.

But for some reason, he felt that Shen Xuan's expression was off, so he asked, "Why is your face so red? Who are you talking to?"

Just then, the phone lit up again. Guan Chengxin leaned over to take a look and saw only a WeChat message from Li Siyuan.

However, Shen Xuan reacted quickly, so he couldn't see the specific content clearly either.

"What are you talking about that made your face turn red?"

He straightened up and saw that she was trying her best to hide it, with a half-smile on her face.

"It is nothing special."

"Last night, at the Li family's house..."

Guan Chengxin stopped halfway through his speech, even though he already had a general idea about the matter.

Shen Xuan looked up at him and realized that his gaze had become very strange.

"Can we change the subject?" she asked, her voice hardening as she looked down.

Those eyes that were trying to avoid his gaze were completely within his sight.

Realizing the topic made her uncomfortable, Guan Chengxin changed the subject to avoid embarrassing her: "By the way, you still owe me a 'brother,' when are you going to call me that?"

As he spoke, he crossed his arms, leaned against the desk, and stood opposite her.
