fiery fall

Chapter 40
"Fu..." Shen Ennan didn't expect that Cao Cao would arrive just as he said Cao Cao. He almost called Fu Qianbei by his name. He twisted his tongue and called Mr. Fu.

Fu Qianbei looked at her and saw that apart from being a little depressed, she was not as exaggerated as Jiang Yan said, "her eyes were red and she looked like she was about to cry."

For some reason, seeing Shen Ennan who was still in a normal mood, the worry in Fu Qianbei's heart quietly let go.

With his eyes, he motioned Shen Ennan to move to the edge of the bench, placed the food he was carrying in the middle of the chair, and said softly: "I asked you what you wanted to eat without replying. I picked two dishes at random."

As soon as the dishes were put down, Shen Ennan smelled an attractive aroma. In an instant, he went from "no appetite" to swallowing saliva while pulling the bag to see what dishes were inside.

Fu Qianbei's eyes softened, he elegantly unbuttoned his suit jacket, and slowly sat down on the other side of the bench.

Shen Ennan has already opened the lunch box. Stir-fried beef with coriander, shrimps and eggs, and stir-fried lettuce are all her favorites.

Fu Qianbei saw a smile on Shen Ennan's face, and his thin lips curled up: "It's dinner time, we won't talk about anything until after dinner."

As he said that, he handed Shen Ennan a pair of chopsticks. After the latter took it, he said tentatively: "You don't want me to pick out the coriander from the beef one by one again, do you? Boss Fu, you ordered it yourself today."

Fu Qianbei looked at her: "If you want to, I won't stop you."

Shen Ennan immediately put the stir-fried beef with coriander on his side and pushed the other two dishes to Fu Qianbei's side without mentioning picking out the coriander.

"Eat, eat, your stomach is not healed yet, you have to have three meals on time."

A smile flashed across Fu Qianbei's eyes. He didn't make things difficult for her like he did for the first time. He picked up another pair of chopsticks and started eating slowly.

He originally had a social event tonight, but after Jiang Yan's description, he was worried that something might happen to Shen Ennan in order to raise money, so he came here after finishing his work in the company.

Moreover, he would rather eat quietly with the person in front of him than the pungent smell and calculating interactions at the dinner table.

During the meal, the two rarely spoke.

Having lived together in the Shen family for 11 years, both of them are accustomed to the rule of not talking when eating or sleeping.

After eating, Shen Ennan came back from throwing away the garbage at the top of the stairs and saw Fu Qianbei standing at the door of the ward, his dark eyes staring into the ward with complicated eyes.

Shen Ennan walked over, but Zhang Lan was still in a post-operative coma and not yet awake.

Fu Qianbei said softly: "The nurse came just now. Your mother won't wake up for at least half an hour."

Shen Ennan pursed her lips: "I know, my mother's health has collapsed since the Shen family went bankrupt three years ago, and now she needs surgery every month."

Fu Qianbei glanced at her and whispered, "Let's go downstairs for a walk."

After saying that, he took the lead and walked towards the elevator entrance.

Shen Ennan looked at his tall and cold back and was stunned for a moment, then stepped up to catch up.The ascending elevator arrived at the floor and opened slowly with a "ding".

"I want to be the first to go to grandma's ward!"

Along with an excited child's voice, three or four children quickly jumped out of the elevator door that had not yet been fully opened.

Shen Ennan was startled, thinking that he would inevitably feel pain if he was hit, but he was pulled into a strong embrace by a pair of powerful palms at a faster speed.

When the elevator door was fully opened, the child had already run away. Two middle-aged women came out and smiled apologetically at them: "I didn't hit you, did I? The child is too naughty. I told you not to run and ran away." gone."

Shen Ennan responded with a smile that didn't matter. She was now tightly grasping the lapel of Fu Qianbei's suit, and the latter's big palm was still firmly on her waist.

Shen Ennan raised his head and met Fu Qianbei's cold black eyes, feeling that the heart close to his body was about to burst out of his chest.She quickly let go of her hand and laughed awkwardly: "Thank you, Boss Fu, for saving my life."

Fu Qianbei smiled lightly when he saw this, and slowly released his hand on her waist.

At this moment, he was not as cold and distant as when Zhou Ningsang invited him to dance. He followed Shen Ennan's words and asked, "How do you repay the favor of saving your life?"

Shen Ennan walked into the elevator first. After Fu Qianbei stepped in, he pressed the first floor and door closing buttons like an assistant.

No one else entered the elevator midway.

When Shen Ennan was wondering whether Fu Qianbei's words were meant to tease her, the elevator had successfully reached the first floor.

There were many people waiting for the elevator outside the door on the first floor. Fu Qianbei put his arm around Shen Ennan's and took her out of the elevator in a half-hug, half-protective manner.

The street lights outside the hospital building were all on. A month later, most of the golden osmanthus clusters had fallen away, but there was still a faint fragrance of osmanthus on the path downstairs.

The white moonlight and dim lights overlapped and illuminated, and two figures on the ground, one high and one low, walked side by side, resembling an intimate couple.

Shen Ennan pursed her lips and broke the quiet ambiguity between the two: "Boss, you came to the hospital to see me. You must have something to do, right?"

Fu Qianbei looked sideways at her. He seemed to be in a good mood and took a deep breath: "I'm here to give you something."

With that said, he handed an envelope to Shen Ennan: "This is a handwritten letter of apology from Zhou Weir. In addition, the company's punishment for him has been announced. He was fired and put on the industry blacklist."

Shen Ennan took it and opened the letter. The content of the apology letter was the same as what was announced on the company forum.

She raised her face, looked at Fu Qianbei's obscure profile, and asked tentatively: "Well, did you acquiesce to what happened on the company forum?"

Fu Qianbei met her probing eyes and asked in a refined voice, "Why, don't you like it?"

Shen Ennan felt that his ears were burning and his heart was beating fast.

Did Fu Qianbei not read the comments from company employees?

Everyone mistakenly thought she was his wife, and said that the two were very loving and deeply in love as husband and wife.

Shen Ennan's eyes flashed, and he whispered: "You probably didn't read the comments, right? Or are you deliberately trying to make me the laughingstock of the whole company? You asked me if I like it?"

Do you want her to climb high and fall heavy?

Let everyone misunderstand that she is his wife, and then he will make a grand appearance with his wife on his arm, making her look like a funny clown and be laughed at by everyone.

Shen Ennan thought this way, but felt that a person as gentle and elegant as Fu Qianbei could not do such a thing.

She plucked up the courage and asked bluntly: "Why are you doing this?"

Seeing that she was asking seriously, Fu Qianbei's joking smile subsided.

He stopped and turned to face her. The street lights on the roadside illuminated his tall and cold figure. In Shen Ennan's eyes, his whole person became gentle.

"I need a doting wife character to stop women who want to send women to me, or take the initiative to stick to me, and put an end to this kind of trouble."

Shen Ennan then asked: "Then why me?"
