Quick Transmigration: The Yandere Boss Pretends to Be Well After He's Gone Mad

Chapter 239 High-Ranking Business Tycoon (Gong) VS Beautiful, Clueless, and Clear-Headed (Shou) [15]

After asking the question as if possessed, Shen Xiushu immediately sensed something was amiss.

Who Shen Jingtan is with is her private matter, and as a junior, he has no right to interfere.

It was only because the muffled groan that came through had a seductive meaning that Shen Xiushu suddenly asked such a question.

He didn't suspect anything, but the voice reminded him of someone else in Suzhou.

Thinking about this, his little lover had indeed been filming in Suzhou for almost two months. During this time, Shen Xiushu was busy with company affairs and only read Jiang Xiyu's messages without replying.

When Shen Jingtan heard the question, she simply looked up and glanced at him without answering.

Jiang Xiyu's gaze shifted from her phone to his face, lingering for a moment before slowly lowering her eyes.

Shen Jingtan was never going to reply anyway.

After Shen Xiu apologized over the phone, Shen Jingtan responded and hung up.

There was no more sound in the car until Jiang Xiyu was dropped off at the hotel entrance. He put his mask back on, paused after getting out of the car, then turned around, bent down, and politely thanked Shen Jingtan with a smile on his face.

The Maybach drove back into the night.

As the neon lights from outside the window swept in, something was refracted and shone for a fleeting moment.

That glimmer of light inadvertently swept past Shen Jingtan's eyes, and he turned his head to look back at the spot beside him.

In the spot where the young man left, there lay a small, square object.

Shen Jingtan frowned slightly.

……

Not long after arriving at the hotel, Jiang Xiyu received a call from Shen Xiushu.

Shen Xiushu has been filming in Suzhou for so long, but he has never taken the initiative to call him.

Jiang Xiyu didn't answer immediately, but looked at the contact name on the phone screen with a half-smile.

When the ringing tone seemed to carry a hint of impatience, Jiang Xiyu finally put the phone to her ear and called out softly to the other party.

"Ashur."

Over the phone, the young man's voice seemed to have a metallic coolness to it.

Perhaps it was because he hadn't heard the other person's voice for so long, but when Shen Xiushu heard this soft, unromantic call, a hint of displeasure crept into his tone: "Why did it take you so long to answer?"

Jiang Xiyu sat on the sofa with her legs crossed and explained softly, "I didn't have my phone with me just now. I was getting ready to go to the set to film a night scene."

"Is there something you need when you call me?"

After I asked that question, the other person fell silent.

Shen Xiushu didn't know why he was making this call. He tugged at his tie in frustration and said, "I'll be going to Suzhou in a couple of days."

"really?"

Her tone was one of surprise, but the face reflected through the floor-to-ceiling window appeared inexplicably cold and desolate.

Upon hearing this, Shen Xiushu's previously emotionless eyes softened.

He grunted in response, then said in a cold voice, "I've come here to handle some matters."

Jiang Xiyu remained silent for a moment, then smiled slightly: "Okay, I'll be waiting for you."

Shen Xiushu remained silent; the phone call continued without sound, as if they had already disconnected.

Jiang Xiyu knew the other person hadn't hung up, but he was also a bit tired today and really didn't want to talk.

At this moment, Jiang Yun came in with the makeup artist and called out to him.

Jiang Xiyu then stood up, smiled slightly, and said to Shen Xiushu, "Ashu, I'll get back to work now."

Shen Xiushu responded calmly.

After hanging up the phone, he sent a message to his assistant, asking him to book a flight to Suzhou for the day after tomorrow.

In mid-September, the Suzhou government will hold a closed-door briefing for a "Technology Forum," primarily to discuss the future development of technology. This meeting is also known as a "gathering of monopolists," and those invited to attend are almost all domestic technology tycoons, with a combined personal net worth of at least $500 billion.

Because of the high level of this briefing, it attracted the attention of the business community and the press. The venue was filled with reporters and high-ranking government officials.

As a giant in this field, Hengyue was naturally among the invited companies.

During the two-day meeting, in footage later released by financial reporters, Jiang Xiyu spotted Shen Xiushu and a fleeting glimpse of his low-key, unassuming figure next to him.

Jiang Xiyu paused and rewound the video several times before finally seeing the name card in the middle, which clearly read "Shen Jingtan".

Shen Jingtan keeps a low profile and rarely appears in the public eye.

After the briefing, almost every shot that showed him was strictly controlled.

Shen Xiushu, who only appeared briefly, had his handsome face captured in a clip by a thoughtful netizen.

This video became very popular after it was uploaded, but unfortunately it was taken down from all online platforms within a few days.

All topics related to Shen Xiushu were banned, and gradually, everyone's enthusiasm waned.

When Jiang Xiyu saw the video, she had been filming night scenes for a week straight and was completely exhausted.

That very evening, Shen Xiushu asked him to come to the Suzhou Club to find him.

Su Cheng Club, a top-tier private club.

After the briefing, the bigwigs would gather privately to exchange ideas, but they weren't entirely discussing work; it was more about relaxing. At this time, other executives who couldn't get into the briefing but had the potential to do so in the future would try every means to enter this high-society circle, make connections, and expand their networks.

To create a relaxed atmosphere, the club allows families to attend, and famous celebrities from the entertainment industry also come along with their families.

Jiang Xiyu was picked up by the driver sent by Shen Xiushu. After entering the club, he was taken directly to Shen Xiushu's room by Shen Xiushu's secretary.

The secretary gestured for Jiang Xiyu to change into the suit that had been prepared for him on the table.

Jiang Xiyu agreed.

After changing his clothes, Shen Xiushu happened to come in. He saw the young man in the suit with flowing ribbons and his eyes flashed with amazement.

This gathering was relaxing for the big shots, but for everyone else, it was a golden opportunity to show off.

To conceal the weariness on her brows, Jiang Xiyu even put on light makeup before setting off.

Shen Xiushu was clearly satisfied with his attire; the lines of his face softened considerably after seeing him.

Jiang Xiyu also gave him her usual obedient smile.

Shen Xiushu said that he could stay by his side when the time came.

Jiang Xiyu was somewhat surprised, and then looked a little embarrassed.

After all, everyone else was surrounded by women, and it wasn't quite right for him, a man, to be by Shen Xiushu's side.

Shen Xiushu sensed his concerns but offered no explanation.

The club actually has a confidentiality agreement, which all attendees must sign, so the youths' concerns are completely unnecessary.

So Shen Xiushu said in a low voice, "Haven't you always wanted to get to know some directors? Stay by my side, and I'll introduce you to some."

Among the people who came to the club with those entertainment capital figures this time, there were many well-known directors and producers. Being able to make an appearance in front of them is something that many actors can only dream of.

This statement clearly appealed to Jiang Xiyu.

His smile deepened, and even his eyebrows curved beautifully.

He took the initiative to walk up to Shen Xiushu, smiled and agreed, and even said thank you somewhat shyly.
