Beijing Marriage Entanglement

Lu Xingci knew, of course, that once she married Shen Yu, no one in the entire capital, or even the Song family, would dare to provoke her.

But what is Shen Yu after?

Lu Xingci doesn't believe that someone would be kind to another person for no reason.

She didn't believe Shen Yu would help her for no reason.

Lu Xingci raised his eyes and gazed into Shen Yu's eyes.

She asked him.

"The Shen family is indeed a powerful backer, but what are you after?"

Shen Yu curved his lips and raised his eyebrows.

"Can't you just consider me doing a good deed?"

Warm fingertips gently brushed across Lu Xingci's beautiful profile.

"Or, is it because of you?"

Lu Xingci slapped his hand away and turned to leave.

"Since Young Master Shen is unwilling to say, then I will not ask any further."

"You're not interested in this game of whirlwind marriage, Mr. Shen. You should find someone else to play."

Lu Xingci lifted his foot and walked out.

Shen Yu sat back down in his chair, took a cigarette out of his pocket, put it in his mouth, and lit it.

He took a drag, slowly exhaled the smoke, and then began to speak.

"What if I told you that I have a grudge against the Song family and Xiao Jinglan?"

Lu Xingci had already reached the door when she heard this and paused.

Although she didn't know much about the elite circles in Beijing.

But I've heard Song Qinghui mention it before.

Xiao Jinglan is Shen Yu's aunt, and his biological mother's older sister.

Moreover, it was thanks to the Shen family's connections that Song Qinghui and Xiao Jinglan were able to establish themselves in the Song family over the years.

Otherwise, they, a widow and her children, would have been devoured by the wolves and tigers of the Song family long ago.

Although Shen Yu and Song Qinghui don't seem to have a particularly good relationship, they probably don't have any animosity towards each other.

Lu Xingci slowly turned around and glanced at Shen Yu.

"Are you serious?"

Shen Yu flicked the cigarette ash with his index finger.

"Of course, I never lie to women."

Lu Xingci couldn't help but roll her eyes.

With his dissolute and unrestrained nature, he's surrounded by women, yet he claims he doesn't lie to them.

However, at the moment, it seems there is no other way besides Shen Yu.

Lu Xingci lifted his foot and returned to Shen Yu's side.

"I will seriously consider marriage. Now, can you help me first?"

Shen Yu readily agreed, "Of course."

Just as Lu Xingci was about to rejoice, he heard Shen Yu say.

"However, you have to grant me one request."

"What are the conditions?"

There's a concert tomorrow night, will you come with me?

Lu Xingci frowned. "Is it that simple?"

"It's that simple."

Lu Xingci looked at the concert tickets handed to her, hesitated briefly, and then accepted them.

"Okay, I promise."

As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Yu smiled and extended his right hand.

"Then wish us a successful collaboration in advance?"

Lu Xingci hesitated before reaching out his hand.

"I only said I'm seriously considering it, not that I've already agreed."

"You will agree."

Shen Yu smiled confidently.

He got up, took out his phone, typed two words, and sent them.

Come up.

Lu Xingci was standing to the side, just about to ask him how he planned to handle the situation, when Jiang Wenzhao rushed in in a panic.

"Xingci, something terrible has happened! A group of people came up and took away all the things they smashed in our company."

Lu Xingci turned around and looked at Shen Yu in surprise.

"Who did you call?"

Shen Yu smiled, his hand slowly sliding down Lu Xingci's arm, his fingertips caressing her fingers as he spoke casually.

"To make repairs, we naturally have to clean up the trash first."

At the doorway, Jiang Wenzhao's gaze fell on Shen Yu's hands, his eyes darkening, and his hands, which were clenched unconsciously at his sides.

As expected, Shen Yu had designs on Lu Xingci.

But he still didn't say anything, silently standing aside, watching Shen Yu's people come and go in the company.

Throughout the morning, Lu Xingci witnessed firsthand what it means for money to make the devil turn the millstone.

In just two hours, the mess left by the vandalism at the company was completely cleaned up.

No sooner had the trash been cleared away than brand-new office equipment and installation personnel arrived at the scene.

Everyone worked in an orderly manner to install, tidy up, and repair.

In just over an hour, the company was completely transformed; even the floor was wiped so clean that you could see your reflection in it.

Looking at the newly renovated company, Lu Xingci was filled with mixed emotions.

In just one morning, my mood went up and down like a rollercoaster.

My phone vibrated in my pocket; it was a message from Xu Zhiwei.

Xu Zhiwei: [Damn, I said I'd only sleep for five minutes, but when I woke up it was already 9:30. I thought I was doomed for being late, but guess what? The meeting that was supposed to be in the morning was postponed by the big boss, and I dodged another bullet, hehehe~]

Xu Zhiwei: [The big boss is really busy. I heard that he just arrived at the company and hadn't even settled in when he got a phone call and was called away. I wonder what he went there for.]

Lu Xingci glanced at Shen Yu, who was standing in front of the French windows making a phone call, and then looked down to edit a message in reply.

I know he's with me.

I casually took a picture of Shen Yu's back and sent it to him.

After sending the photo, Lu Xingci saw a long-standing typing status message under Xu Zhiwei's name.

But after a long time, only a question mark was sent out all by itself.

The situation is a bit complicated, let's talk about it later.

The moment the message was sent, a shadow fell.

Lu Xingci looked up in surprise and met Shen Yu's gaze.

"The Song family will send someone to apologize later. Just accept the compensation they offer. I have other matters to attend to and must go."

Lu Xingci nodded blankly.

"I understand. So, how much compensation should I ask for?"

Shen Yu squatted down to look her in the eye and gently brushed her nose with his knuckles.

"Idiot, do you even know how to use a bamboo bar?"

You can have as much as you want.

Although Lu Xingci disliked being bullied by others, she also did not want to use her relationship with Shen Yu to intimidate others.

As if seeing through her thoughts, Shen Yu continued.

"I'll have my assistant send you a list later. Then you can take into account your losses and ask for whatever amount you're entitled to."

Rest assured, the Song family wouldn't dare utter a single word of dissent.

Shen Yu was indeed very busy; he left in a hurry after helping her with the company's affairs.

The interview was rescheduled because the company was vandalized.

Lu Xingci suddenly had some free time, so he told Xu Zhiwei everything that had happened at the company that morning.

Shortly after a long message was sent, Xu Zhiwei sent a photo.

Judging from the angle and the clarity of the photo, it was probably taken by Hsu Chih-wei in a panic.

However, even through the blurry photo, one can still see Shen Yu sitting upright in a black suit at the top.

His face was gloomy and very serious.

He exudes an aura of authority and power, as if he has long held a high position.

But Lu Xingci had never seen Shen Yu like this before.

He always seemed unrestrained and carefree in front of her.

Hsu Chih-wei: [Let me tell you, the higher-ups are all like children who have made mistakes. I feel like I can't breathe just sitting in the corner.]

Xu Zhiwei: [Now I completely understand why you didn't accept his proposal. A living devil like him, anyone who lives with him will suffer!]

Xu Zhiwei had just sent out the message when she heard a senior executive in the marketing department make a mistake while giving a report.

Everyone in the conference room held their breath and looked up at Shen Yu.

The marketing executive who misspoke turned pale, and cold sweat beaded on his forehead.

"Mr. Shen... I'm sorry, I... I'll definitely be more careful next time!"

Just when everyone thought Shen Yu was about to fly into a rage, he simply raised his eyes and spoke in a calm and indifferent manner.

"Okay, continue."
