Chapter 184 How are you thinking?

After the banquet, on the way back, Shen Yaoting asked her about what happened at the banquet. She leaned back in her chair tiredly and gave an ambiguous answer.

Shen Yaoting’s expression turned cold and he frowned: “If you continue to be perfunctory like this, I will arrange it for you. The last Mr. Zhou was very good.”

Shen Youran’s eyes suddenly opened, and she tilted her head to look at him, her eyes full of disbelief and shock, and her face gradually turned pale.

The Mr. Zhou mentioned by Shen Yaoting is 35 years old this year, a divorced man, and has a seven-year-old daughter.

Seeing the rejection in her eyes, Shen Yaoting said coldly: “Mr. Zhou said that if you marry him, he will give you 5% of Zhou’s shares. This is his sincerity.”

It was midsummer, but Shen Youran felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar and was freezing cold.

……

The next day after get off work, Shen Youran returned home on time as usual. Seeing a strange car parked outside the yard, she became suspicious. Was there a guest at home today?
As soon as she stepped into the living room, she felt something was unusual. Shen Yaoting and Tang Huiru were both there. There was a strange man sitting on the single sofa in the living room, and this man was Mr. Zhou.

Her face suddenly turned pale, and her hands at her sides clenched subconsciously. She didn’t expect Shen Yaoting to move so quickly.

“You Ran, come here.” Because of many things that happened recently, Shen Yaoting has always been cold to her. Today, with the president here, his attitude is relatively gentle.

Shen Youran changed her shoes and walked over, greeting with a gentle smile: “Mr. Zhou.”

Mr. Zhou has a very ordinary appearance, the kind you wouldn’t even be able to spot in a crowd. Fortunately, he doesn’t have a big belly, otherwise my heart would be overwhelmed at the mere sight of him.

President Zhou smiled gracefully, with light wrinkles at the corners of his eyes: “Ms. Shen, we meet again.”

Shen Youran was silent for a moment, then said, “Dad, Mom, I’m going upstairs first.” Shen Yaoting glanced at her calmly, “Sit down, Mr. Zhou came here especially for your matter.”

Shen Youran sat down next to Tang Huiru. She didn’t hear a word they said. Her mind involuntarily recalled what Ji Jinchuan said at work today.

At noon, she received a call from the president’s office. Ji Jinchuan asked for a cup of coffee. She brought the brewed coffee into the president’s office and placed it on the table: “Mr. Ji, your coffee.”

Ji Jinchuan raised his head from the computer, his eyes were warm and light: “What do you think of what I said yesterday?”

It took her a moment to understand what he was talking about, and she put on a peaceful smile: “Boss Ji, did we talk about it yesterday?”

Ji Jinchuan’s eyes were deep and seemed to be emotionless, and his tone was arrogant and cold: “Very good.”

A faint voice uttered two simple words in a low and deep voice, which seemed to knock on her heart.

“You Ran? Youran?” Tang Huiru called her several times before she came back to her senses.

Seeing her absent-minded look, Shen Yaoting frowned, but because Mr. Zhou was present, he couldn’t get angry, so he asked in a deep voice: “Are you too tired from work?”

Shen Youran’s eyes were calm and cool, and she continued as he spoke: “Yes, a little.”

Shen Yaoting said expressionlessly: “Then go back to your room and rest first.”

Shen Youran nodded, turned and walked towards the stairs, went up to the second floor at a steady pace, and returned to her room. She could no longer maintain the hypocritical smile and it gradually froze at the corners of her mouth.
