Qin He Yi walked straight to Shen Wan Ci, pulling her rolled-up sleeve back down. "The air conditioning is this cold, aren't you cold?"

Although it's a bright sunny day today, it's only the end of April after all. Standing in the shade is still a bit chilly. There are many people in the mall, so the air conditioning is on.

Shen Wanci: “How did you get here?”

Qin Heyi glanced at Qin Yuezhi, who was as calm as ever: "Someone sent me a message, and I happened to be in the vicinity, so I came over."

It's not that coincidental, actually. His family intentionally wanted to match him with Mu Yao. He was coaxed by his mother into it. As soon as he got close to this area, he received a message from Qin Yuezhi.

Mu Yao was still sitting on the ground, watching Qin Hexi help Shen Wanci pull down her sleeves. She was filled with hatred, he had just walked straight to that woman without even glancing at her, not even a shred of attention from his peripheral vision.

She looked up, her voice small and pitiful, and called out, "Yi Ge."

Qin Heyi turned his head, his eyebrows slightly furrowed, "Why are you sitting on the ground? Isn't it cold?"

Muo Yao gritted her teeth. If Qin He Yi was really just a straight man, that would be fine, but he was clearly very good to Shen Wan Ci. He even cared about little things like whether the other person rolled up or let down their sleeves, clearly treating her as his own.

This kind of differential treatment made her very embarrassed: “I accidentally tripped and fell.”

If another man heard this, regardless of whether he had any intentions towards her, he would definitely lend a hand. But Qin He Yi spends his days either training or training others. He wouldn't even hesitate to grit his teeth and persevere if he tripped accidentally, let alone falling off the parallel bars.

Then he barked, "Get up if you fell. It's not a big deal."

Mu Yao: "..."

"Hurry up, don't block the way for the service staff."

Mu Yao was on the verge of tears, her face as delicate and sorrowful as a blossoming pear tree caught in the rain, touching everyone's hearts. Yet, Qin He Yi, this male lead, showed no sympathy whatsoever. All he had was impatience with her slow pace.

Everyone was staring at her, including Shen Wanci, her rival. The immense embarrassment and humiliation made it impossible for her to stay any longer. She scrambled to her feet, covering her face and running out of the cafe.

Qin Yuezhi let out a 'tsk' sound: "You're such a straight man, be careful you stay single your whole life."

Qin Heyi sat down next to Shen Wanci and took out his phone to scan the code to order: "This isn't a straight man, this is that man having no her in his heart. The ability to mate like a male animal is innate, even pigs know to nudge when they meet someone they like..."

He looked up, with a serious expression, at Qin Yuezhi: "I heard you've been going on blind dates recently. For the sake of our brotherhood, let me give you a tip. If a man just lets you get mistreated without batting an eye, it only proves that he doesn't have you in his heart. Everything else is an excuse."

Shen Wanci held the metal spoon, mechanically stirring the coffee in her cup.

She tilted her head and just caught sight of Mu Yao running out of the cafe. She was running while wiping away tears, as if heartbroken to the extreme.

Looking at this scene, Shen Wanci didn't feel the pleasure of revenge. She remembered herself in her previous marriage, when she was just as pathetic. Everyone in the secretary department watched her joke and secretly ridiculed her for getting a backdoor promotion.

At that time, she couldn't even run away, she could only silently endure it, and had to pretend everything was fine in front of Jiang Yajue.

As for Bao Jingzhou, her husband, he just stood there coldly watching from the sidelines. Those people probably wouldn't dare to gossip in front of him, but Chen Xu certainly knew that even if he hadn't treated her as Bao Jingzhou's real wife back then, after so long, she didn't believe he hadn't told him a word.

Qin Yuezhi glanced at Shen Wanci, seeing her stirring her coffee and staring out the window in a daze. She knew that Qin Heyi's words had brought back painful memories for her.

Qin Heyi didn't know how Shen Wanci's three years of marriage had gone, but as her best friend, she knew very well. Several times she almost wanted to grab a knife and kill that scumbag.

She reached out and stuffed a piece of dessert they had left on the table into Qin Heyi's mouth, "You can't even shut your mouth while eating. How did you know I was on a blind date?"

She and Qin Hexi, a high-ranking official's offspring, weren't from the same circle.

Qin Hěyì: "You guess."

Qin Yuezhi rolled her eyes at him.

After finishing their coffee, the group found a place to eat. Shen Wanci's phone rang, and she glanced at the caller ID. It was Bo Jingzhou calling.

This period, she sprained her ankle and was unable to move around. He directly ordered restaurants to deliver meals for her, three times a day, never missing a meal. He also called her several times a day, not talking about anything substantial, sometimes even just asking if she had eaten.

He had ordered the meal, he didn't know if she ate it or not.

Shen Wanci used to scold him, but now she can chat with him peacefully.

But today, she just hung up the phone without thinking.

Several minutes later, Bo Jingzhou's phone call came again. This time, Shen Wanci not only hung up the phone but also directly blocked him.

Bo Jingzhou: "..."

He listened to the busy tone coming from the receiver, his brows furrowed into a stream. He glanced at Chen Xu, who was holding files and walking out: "Go check what Madam is doing now."

It's the weekend, her foot isn't completely healed yet, she should be at home.

Chen Xi, who had finally managed to secure a chance to stay and review the situation, felt his scalp tighten the moment he heard the words "young mistress." This was definitely karma.

He shouldn't have looked down on others before, nor should he have arrogantly thought that Mr. Bo didn't care about Miss Shen, nor should he have denied her position as the Mrs. of the CEO of Bo Corporation.

Ten minutes later, Chen Xu knocked and came in, his face ashen. “Madam and Miss Qin are eating bullfrog head, Qin Heyi is there too, and he’s even removing fish bones for Madam.”

He has been transferred to a branch office and then sent to Africa, which has caused him great psychological damage. He must find some consolation, otherwise it would be too miserable for him to suffer alone.

Bo Jingzhou's face was expressionless. "Did she eat?"

"He ate, and ate a lot."

The man behind the desk's face had already turned as bad as it could get. The housemaid said that Shen Wanci never ate fish head.

"Go away."

After Chen Xu left, Bo Jingzhou coldly dialed Shen Wanci's phone again, this time directly prompting the other party to be busy.

……

When Shen Wanci returned, it was already eight o'clock. As soon as she stepped out of the elevator, she smelled a faint smell of cigarettes in the air. She thought to herself who would be so uncouth as to smoke in the hallway, and then she saw Bo Jingzhou standing at her doorstep, leaning against the wall, smoking, and half-squinting at her.

The man wore a well-tailored suit and tie, but his bow tie was loosened, hanging loosely around his neck. The top two buttons of his shirt were undone. He stood casually, lacking the formality and stiffness he had at the office, instead appearing relaxed and carefree.

His figure was completely exposed in the light, even the gloom on his face was clearly visible.
