Back in his office, Shen Yanchuan tossed the documents in his hand onto the sofa, sat down, and opened a drawer. Inside was a pack of cigarettes. He grabbed one, put it in his mouth, and was about to light it when he remembered something and threw it away.

Zhou Youchen, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but ask, "President Shen, why did you stop smoking?"

Shen Yanchuan rubbed his temples. "Some people don't like the smell of smoke."

Zhou Youchen was taken aback. Even in such a state of anger, the second young master could still consider the second young mistress's preferences. This was true love!

"Mr. Shen, have some water and calm down. This is clearly a problem that Mr. Shen couldn't solve before, and he wants to push you out to take the blame."

Shen Yanchuan took the water and drank a sip, his eyes flashing with a sharp light. He already had a plan in mind, but he couldn't stand Shen Yaorong's rotten face.

"what time is it now?"

It's 6:40.

Shen Yanchuan picked up his phone and dialed Su Chenxi's number, but she didn't answer. Shen Yanchuan guessed that she was either back at her apartment or still at the Shen Foundation.

He picked up his car keys, intending to try his luck at the Shen Foundation.

Su Chenxi's phone was in the office, while she was at the jewelry section. A piece of glass had cracked, so she came down to take a look, since the jewelry on display inside was worth tens of millions.

Su Chenxi was staring intently when she suddenly saw a figure approaching from behind. It was a tall, elegant man. She turned around in surprise.

"Young Master Gu?" Su Chenxi was taken aback, thinking that it was Shen Yanchuan who had come to see her!

Gu Heting's gaze was somewhat deep tonight, and he seemed even more unpredictable than usual.

"Do you have time to talk?" Gu Heting looked at her with concern.

Su Chenxi smiled and asked, "Is there something you need, Young Master Gu?"

"Yes, it's something very important."

Momi, who was standing nearby, said tactfully, "Second Young Mistress, we'll head out now."

Su Chenxi invited Gu Heting to sit down on the sofa next to her. The lighting here was not bright, but dim and had a charming atmosphere.

Su Chenxi was only focused on Gu Heting coming to find her and didn't notice that the surrounding lights were too dim.

Gu Heting looked at her seriously, "I heard from your sister that you and Shen Yanchuan signed a one-year marriage agreement, is that true?"

Su Chenxi was taken aback. Jiang Yao had actually told him about this?

"This...I..." Su Chenxi was at a loss, she hadn't expected Gu Heting to come and ask this.

"Chenxi, I need you to tell me if it's true?" Gu Heting pressed, wanting an answer.

Momi and the other employees working overtime kept their distance and didn't notice when someone walked in from outside. Shen Yanchuan asked Su Chenxi at the front desk if she was handling business at the Jade Pavilion, and then he went straight to the Jade Pavilion.

Su Chenxi hesitated over how to answer the question when Gu Heting asked again in a hoarse voice, "Did you two have a fight? Did he hurt you?"

Su Chenxi looked up in surprise, "There's no such thing. Where did you hear that?"

"Your sister said you slept in a hotel last night. Did he kick you out?" Gu Heting's gaze held a hint of heartache, and some suppressed emotions seemed to no longer be concealed.

Su Chenxi was truly furious; she had underestimated Jiang Yao's ability to distort the truth.

"Chenxi, answer me, you know I like you." Gu Heting finally said the words he most wanted to say to her.

Before Su Chenxi could react, an angry male voice sneered, "Gu Heting, what do you want with my wife?"

Su Chenxi's heart skipped a few seconds. She turned her head to look at Shen Yanchuan who had stepped in, and her mind went blank with shock.

Why is he here?

Gu Heting stood up, and two pairs of eyes met in mid-air, as if invisible swords and shadows were shooting out, one a mad lion and the other a fierce leopard.

Su Chenxi sensed that the two men were about to fight, so she stood up, stood between them, and said to Gu Heting, "Young Master Gu, please leave first, thank you."

Shen Yanchuan looked at the woman with her back to him, turned her shoulder with his long arm, and instantly grabbed her chin with his other hand, kissing her red lips in front of Gu Heting.

"Well…"

Caught completely off guard and forcibly kissed in front of Gu Heting, Su Chenxi's mind went blank.

She instinctively struggled for a moment, but the man's long arm tightened around her, his domineering and unyielding manner leaving no room for refusal.

While Shen Yanchuan caressed Su Chenxi's soft red lips, he glanced at a bystander with a provocative and possessive look.

Su Chenxi kept her eyes tightly closed, her mind completely blank. The man ignored the onlookers, gripped her slender waist, and continued to kiss her deeply and passionately.

Until Gu Heting left with his fists clenched.

When Su Chenxi was released, she leaned limply against the man's chest, her breath coming in short gasps and a few soft coughs.

At that moment, only one sentence echoed in her mind: How awful!

unacceptable.

How could you treat her like this?

Before she could even process what was happening, the man dragged her to the sofa. The next second, an extremely aggressive face loomed close to her. "Su Chenxi, you'd better explain yourself."

Su Chenxi was still catching her breath. She bit her lip and said, "I will explain."

Gu Heting's sudden visit was unexpected, and his appearance just happened to lead to this misunderstanding.

Of course, the cause was Jiang Yao's manipulation behind the scenes.

Just as Momi was about to come over to check on Su Chenxi's condition, she saw her being half-pressed down on the sofa by Shen Yanchuan, which startled her, and she quickly backed away.

What's going on? It was Young Master Gu just now, when did the Second Young Master come here again?

"Shen Yanchuan, can you loosen your grip a little? I can't breathe." Su Chenxi reached out and pushed him.

Shen Yanchuan sat up straight and pulled her into his arms. "You're already planning to find someone new before the divorce is even finalized?"

"No, Young Master Gu came to see me suddenly, and we hadn't even exchanged a few words when you arrived. It's all a misunderstanding," Su Chenxi explained earnestly.

"Don't try to cover this up with the excuse of a misunderstanding. Do you think I'm easy to fool?"

"Really, I'm telling the truth." Su Chenxi sighed; she really wasn't lying to him.

As for Gu Heting's sudden confession to her, she was completely baffled. She had secretly loved him for two years, but he had never confessed to her before.

"Then why did he suddenly confess to you? Why is he so concerned about you? Did you confess to him before I came?" Shen Yanchuan grabbed her wrist and pulled her closer to him.

Su Chenxi felt his grip on her bones was painful, and she struggled a little, "Let go, it hurts so much."

Shen Yanchuan let go of her hand, but the next second he took her hand and said, "Come home with me."

Remembering that her phone was still upstairs, Su Chenxi quickly said, "I also need to get my bag."

At this moment, Momi walked over and said, "Second Young Mistress, let me go up and get it for you."

Soon, Momi came downstairs carrying her bag. "Second Young Madam, the phone is in the bag."

"Thank you, you can go home now!" Su Chenxi smiled at her, and the next second, she was pulled towards the door by a force.

"Shen Yanchuan, can't you be a little gentler?" Su Chenxi said in annoyance.

As soon as they reached the sports car, the man opened the door and roughly pushed her inside.

Not far away, Gu Heting watched this scene, his hands gripping the steering wheel clenching into fists once more.

Gu Heting believed Jiang Yao's words, and seeing this scene before him, he was absolutely convinced that Shen Yanchuan had indeed abused and harmed Su Chenxi during their marriage.

"Shen Yanchuan, the day you get a divorce, I will definitely take her away from you and won't give you a chance to hurt her again," Gu Heting said through gritted teeth.
