fiery fall

Chapter 1 Don't Guess President Fu's Thoughts
Because I met the most beautiful person when I was young, all the people I meet again are not as good as that person in my eyes.

——Fu Qianbei
*
Just after September, the temperature in Beicheng dropped, and it rained heavily for three days in a row.

Shen Ennan was sitting by the window in the cafe, the knuckles of his hands holding the glass turned white.

She looked at the man across from her with gratitude. The cold made her voice sound gentler and softer: "Thank you for lending me money to treat my mother's illness. I will pay you back the 8000 yuan as soon as possible."

"It's easy to talk about." The man looked at her and waved his hand generously: "You don't have to pay back the 8000 yuan."

Shen Ennan was stunned and looked up at him.

This man was in his thirties, slightly chubby, with a layer of flesh on his face that made his eyes very small, as if he only had black eyeballs. There was an uncomfortable shrewdness in his smile.

8000 yuan is a lot less. For ordinary office workers, their monthly income is less than [-] yuan.

He smiled and said: "I have actually admired Miss Shen for a long time. The 8000 yuan will be used as the betrothal gift I give you. I don't want any dowry from you. I will give you 800 yuan as pocket money every month after the marriage. You can spend it on On your mother."

Is this man sick?
Shen Ennan frowned and coughed uncomfortably, trying to interrupt him.

The other party considerately added half a glass of water for her, and continued: "Miss Shen, let's discuss some things first. First, my family is a single generation of three generations, and a son must be born after marriage! Second, filial piety comes first, and after marriage, You have to serve my parents, take care of my husband and raise my children, do laundry..."

"Mr. Zhang!"

Shen Ennan interrupted the man's thoughts.

This man's name is Zhang Shuai. Probably the fortune teller knew what he was missing in his life, so he gave him this name.

"Shen Ennan, do you understand what it means to take your husband as your guide?" Zhang Shuai showed annoyance on his face and slapped the table and scolded: "Who allows you to interrupt me? From now on, you must obey my words and my orders!"

Shen Ennan's brows furrowed even more tightly.

100% sure, this man is really sick!
She took a deep breath, and seeing that the other party was willing to help in times of need, she suppressed her temper and said, "Mr. Zhang, I'm here today just to borrow money for an emergency. I will pay you back within half a month."

"As for getting married, I don't think we are suitable."

"Inappropriate?"

Zhang Shuai leaned forward and instantly shortened the distance between him and Shen Ennan, a light fragrance lingering on the tip of his nose.

Shen Ennan's hand was grabbed by him instantly: "What's inappropriate?"

Shen Ennan frowned in disgust and pulled out his hand: "It's not suitable anywhere!"

She fell into the quagmire, but the pride in her bones was not shattered. She picked up her bag and stood up.

"I don't need your money anymore. Let's go now."

"stop!"

The next moment, Shen Ennan was pulled back by a brute force, and a fat face filled with shame and anger appeared in front of her.

"Shen Ennan, do you still think you are the eldest daughter of the Shen family? Three years ago, the Shen family went bankrupt and your father ran away alone. If it hadn't been for the support of old friends in the past three years, your mother would have died of illness, right?"

"Now that you are desperate, you still pretend to be noble? Who are you pretending to——"

Before he could say the word "look", a glass of cold water was poured on the man's face.

"You little bitch, how dare you splash me!"

In the quiet coffee shop, this curse was particularly eye-catching, and all eyes were focused on the two of them.

If it were Shen Ennan and Zhang Shuai who had already kowtowed and begged for mercy, who would dare to see her joke!

She knocked off Zhang Shuai's hand and said in a cold tone: "It's not your turn to make irresponsible remarks about my Shen family's affairs! Even without these 8000 yuan, my mother will live a long life!"

Zhang Shuai laughed loudly: "Shen Ennan, you are a liar! Who doesn't know that your Shen family has offended a big shot? Aren't all companies or enterprises that have even a dime of connection with the Shen family been suppressed or bankrupt within half a month? "

The man stared at her, wanting Shen Ennan to be embarrassed in public!

"You are now the god of plague that everyone in Beicheng is afraid of. It's too late for people to avoid you, and they will lend you money to treat your mother?"

Shen Ennan clenched her fists tightly, but her face was still pale.

Zhang Shuai sneered and threw a stack of red banknotes on the table: "I am the only one who dares to provoke you now. Want money? Kneel down and apologize to me, and then ask me to marry you!" Hearing this, everyone took a breath. , began to discuss in whispers.

"This man is so useless. He is taking advantage of others' misfortune. Alas! This Miss Shen is so miserable..."

There were many people who sympathized with Shen Ennan, but no one came to help. They only shook their heads and lamented Shen Ennan's fate.

Corridor on the second floor.

A tall figure suddenly stopped.

The man's slender hand rested on the carved railing, revealing a string of dark agarwood beads on his bony wrist.

Just a simple standing posture, with that dignified and elegant temperament, reminds people of the quiet ancient temples and temples in the mountains, and the frost and snow on the Changbai Mountain that never melt all year round.

Jiang Yan saw the boss suddenly stopped and looked downstairs curiously.

The woman looked pale and helpless, and a fat man sat in front of her with his legs crossed, looking vulgar and disgusting.

"Take five minutes to think about it. Either kneel down and apologize to me and marry me as your husband and godson, or wait until your mother's body is collected!"

Zhang Shuai looked sure that Shen Ennan would give in, and he had even thought about how to organize the wedding.

Beauty is in danger!
If something really happens, just divorce and let Shen Ennan leave the house.

Zhang Shuai looked at his watch: "There are still three minutes."

Shen Ennan's nails dug deeply into her palms, and her helplessness made her tears accumulate a layer of mist.

Before she came to see Zhang Shuai, she did ask many of her former friends for help, but everyone avoided her.

Some people hate her and the Shen family.

Everyone related to the Shen family was retaliated against.

But today, if she did not have 8000 yuan to pay for the surgery, her mother would die.

"You really want this?"

Upstairs, Jiang Yan saw clearly that this fat man was nothing!

For so long, the boss has not issued an order.

As a secretary, observing people's emotions is an essential work skill.

Jiang Yan quietly observed Fu Qianbei's expression. Although they were both men, he couldn't help but admire Mr. Fu's appearance.

Fu Qianbei is a standard beauty with good looks, gentle and dignified, and his cold temperament like an immortal makes countless ladies in Beicheng fall in love at first sight.

Jiang Yan has been with Mr. Fu for four or five years, and this is the first time he has seen Mr. Fu staring at a woman.

But it does look good. Even if it falls into the quagmire, its temperament remains intact.

"Mr. Fu, do you need me to handle it?"

"Are you free?"

A cold warning fell on him, and Fu Qianbei glanced at him coldly.

Jiang Yan was so frightened that his hair stood on end. He lowered his head and apologized: "I'm sorry, Mr. Fu, I'm the one talking too much!"

Fu Qianbei walked towards the elevator entrance indifferently.

Jiang Yan looked at his back and followed him with sweat on his back.

"Shen Ennan, you too have today."

Following Fu Qianbei's pace, Jiang Yan suddenly heard a sarcasm full of hatred and indifference.

Jiang Yan was stunned. Could it be that he misunderstood the boss's thoughts?
