Chapter 183 Shen Yanzhi: The Dark Mushroom

Upon hearing Chi Yu's words, Su Chengyan concealed the sadness in his eyes.

Chi Yu did encounter some problems, but she still wanted to solve them herself.

Having been immersed in business for too long, Su Chengyan had heard too much flattery. When Chi Yu said, "I will definitely tell you when there is a suitable opportunity in the future," Su Chengyan heard no different from when he said, "We will cooperate again when there is an opportunity in the future," when he couldn't reach an agreement with other businessmen.

Both sides knew that it was just a polite formality.

Su Chengyan sighed silently, his eyebrows drooping, standing tall and imposing in front of Chi Yu like a dejected penguin.

His tone was very dejected: "I'll wait for the day you tell me."

"it is good."

Chi Yu had never had any contact with family before, but during these two encounters with Su Chengyan, she discovered that Su Chengyan was completely different from the information she had found online.

The information clearly states that although Su Chengyan is a successful young capitalist, he is arrogant and difficult to get along with.

He once left the interview site two minutes late because a reporter was interviewing him, and no matter how much the staff apologized and tried to persuade him to stay, it was to no avail. He even verbally abused the staff until they cried. He is an extremely willful person.

But now,

Chi Yu glanced out of the corner of her eye at Su Chengyan, whose face looked like it was about to shatter after being rejected by her.

...Aloof? Arrogant?

They're completely unrelated!
For a fleeting moment, Chi Yu even wondered if her words hadn't been tactful enough and might have hurt Su Chengyan.

After all, the other person was concerned about her and worried that something bad had happened to her, which is why they asked.

Just as Chi Yu was feeling anxious and preparing to say goodbye to Su Chengyan, Su Chengyan spoke up: "Yu Yu, may I give you a dress?"

He looked at the dirt on Chi Yu's skirt and said, "Your skirt is dirty. When I came here, I saw a clothing store nearby. It doesn't take long to drive there."

Chi Yu paused for a moment, then nodded: "Okay."

Upon hearing her agree, Su Chengyan's handsome face seemed to flash a smile.

"Let's go, get in the car."

In his eyes, Chi Yu was just like a stray, dirty little cat; every time he saw her, she was always filthy.

She said she was doing well, but in Su Chengyan's eyes, she clearly wasn't taking good care of herself.

When Su Chengyan brought Chi Yu to the police station, he wanted to change Chi Yu's dress, but Chi Yu hadn't finished her business yet, and Su Chengyan didn't want Chi Yu to misunderstand that he was disgusted with her.

The two got back into the car. This time, Su Chengyan didn't look at the navigation; his hands on the steering wheel moved with practiced ease.

Anyone with eyes could see that he had been prepared all along.

Seeing this, Chi Yu silently glanced at her remaining time. She hadn't spent much time at the police station, and now she had a good two hours left, which should be enough to buy clothes.

While Chi Yu and Su Chengyan were strolling around, in a room at the golf club, Shen Yanzhi pursed his lips, his dark eyes fixed on his phone as if he wanted to stare through the screen.

One hour and thirty-two minutes.

One hour and thirty-two minutes have passed since the message was left on the phone.

The phone spirit that obediently wrote on the letter that it was just going out to play and that he didn't need to worry had completely disappeared without a trace...

Poor Shen Yanzhi, still single at twenty-seven or twenty-eight, has already experienced the anxiety and torment of being a guardian.

After a good night's sleep, Jiang Chang, feeling fully recharged, knocked on the door with great enthusiasm. As soon as he entered, he saw his cousin sitting on the sofa with a handsome face that was expressionless.

Anyone could see that Shen Yanzhi was in a bad mood at the moment, much like a mushroom waiting to mold in a damp and dark environment.

Jiang Chang never expected that Shen Yanzhi, who was fine when they parted, would suddenly become so upset after just one night's sleep.

He, who was originally full of energy, even unconsciously slowed down his pace.

Jiang Chang looked at Shen Yanzhi, then at the spotless, wrinkle-free bed in the room, and asked in surprise, "Brother Yan, you didn't take a nap, did you? What happened?"

"It's nothing," Shen Yanzhi said succinctly.

He composed himself and asked Jiang Chang, "Did you sleep well?"

"Yes. I've been awake for a while now, and I even walked around the lobby for a bit. When I saw you hadn't come out, I came to check on you." Jiang Huan was still a little curious: "Why didn't you lie down and rest?"

"No, I don't want to sleep." Shen Yanzhi picked up his phone and stood up briskly.

The lounge had its own restroom. Shen Yanzhi went in to wash his hands, and when he came out, he had returned to his usual calm and composed demeanor, as if the cold and gloomy person Jiang Chang had just seen was just his imagination.

Jiang Chang wanted to show concern, but considering Shen Yanzhi's stubbornness, he gave up.

The two walked out together.

Shen Yanzhi suddenly asked, "Jiang Chang, given my personality and lifestyle, wouldn't someone find it boring to spend a long time with me?"

Jiang Chang never expected Shen Yanzhi to ask such a question, and he couldn't help but show a "you just realized that?" expression on his face.

Two seconds later, Jiang Chang withdrew an expression.

He coughed and said, "Brother Yan, why are you suddenly asking about this? You have a great personality, a great life, a healthy lifestyle, and a clean social circle..."

Jiang Chang rummaged around and couldn't help but list Shen Yanzhi's merits.

In the brightly lit corridor, Shen Yanzhi's gaze fell on the guests coming and going in the hall, his dark eyes deep and serious as he searched for something.
