Mr. Xiao, can I borrow your wedding invitation?

Chapter 455 The heartless man

Compared to her anger and embarrassment, Xiao Shen remained calm and composed, looking quite irritating. "I heard that the service at Ruyi Restaurant is exceptionally good, but is this how President Su serves me?"

"You know perfectly well whether you're here to eat or not. I don't have time to deal with your personal grudges!"

Xiao Shen raised an eyebrow. "Who said I didn't come here to eat out of the goodness of my heart?"

He gestured to a waiter, "What about members here?"

"Recharge 100,000 for Silver Membership, 500,000 for Gold Membership, 1 million for Diamond Membership, 2 million..."

"Two million, swipe your card!"

The waiter was stunned and looked at Su Ying.

滴—

Membership completed.

Xiao Shen put away the bank card. "Now I'm a legitimate customer, right?"

Su Ying couldn't understand his actions. She closed her eyes and exhaled a breath of stale air. "Mr. Xiao, you're an adult with a wife. Can you please stop playing such a boring and childish game?"

Xiao Shen rested his chin on his fingertip, looking completely innocent. "Who said I was playing games? I came to deliver something to you!"

As he spoke, he pulled a coat from the paper bag beside him. "It's already washed!"

Su Ying gasped and quickly covered her mouth, "I don't want it anymore, you can just throw it away!"

"I see. Then I'll pass it on to Shen Qingfeng!"

"Xiao Shen!" Su Ying warned through gritted teeth.

Xiao Shen leaned back, his expression confident, "I'm here!"

"Alright, alright, I'll take the clothes back. I'm also very grateful that you washed them for me. I welcome Mr. Xiao to have dinner at Ruyi. Apart from that, we have no further dealings. Please excuse me, Mr. Xiao, enjoy your meal!" Su Ying nodded slightly and stepped back to leave.

Xiao Shen took a sip of tea, a smile playing on his lips.

He just loved seeing Su Ying get her comeuppance...

As the number of customers gradually decreased in the evening, Su Ying changed her clothes and left work, preparing to go to Su Wen's place to pick up Tian Tian and take her home.

Drip!

The car window rolled down, and Xiao Shen's irritating face was once again reflected in his pupils.

Su Ying clenched her fist, took a deep breath, and suppressed her inner impulse, trying to pretend she hadn't seen anything. But this guy didn't give her a chance, stepping on the gas and cutting in front of Su Ying.

"Doesn't Mr. Xiao need to go home to be with his wife?"

Xiao Shen's pose of tilting his head to light a cigarette is so handsome it could be on a poster; no other man could compare.

"Nothing at home smells as good as what you get outside, Mr. Su, don't you agree?"

Su Ying laughed, "Right? Then Mr. Xiao should go to an entertainment club and look around, maybe you'll find something you like!"

"But I just like Mr. Su's type, what can I do?" He gently exhaled a puff of smoke, his neck line stretched long and slender, making him incredibly charming.

Su Ying's lips moved, and the words of cursing her ancestors for eighteen generations were on the tip of her tongue when she was suddenly interrupted by a cell phone ringing. It was Xiao Shen calling.

He removed the cigarette from his lips, and after listening to the person on the other end of the phone, a cold glint appeared in his eyes.

"Something came up at the company. I'll talk to President Su another day!" The man put away his phone, said goodbye, turned his car around, and quickly disappeared into traffic.

Su Ying: "..." Coming and going in such a hurry, what's going on here!
At that moment, her phone also rang, as if it had caught the urge to ring.

"Hey?"

"Su Ying, your brother got into a fight and he's in the hospital now..."

Half an hour later, Su Ying met up with Qing Yan at the hospital. Qing Yan couldn't explain the details of what happened either, but in short, Su Wen was currently at the hospital.

Being beaten to the point of needing to go to the hospital shows how serious the injury was. On the way to the ward, Qingyan's legs were weak, and she needed Su Ying's support several times to walk with difficulty.

"Su Wen, you didn't..."

As Su Ying helped Qingyan into the ward, both of them froze.

Su Wen was leaning against the headboard, his head and left forearm wrapped in thick gauze. A girl was sitting beside him, feeding him porridge spoonful by spoonful.

Upon seeing them enter, the girl instinctively stood up.

“And who is this…” Su Ying asked first.

The girl introduced herself, "Hello, my name is Jiaojiao, I'm an employee at the boss's shop. The boss was injured today..."

"Jiaojiao, my sister and my wife are here. This is none of your business. You should go back and rest. I'll handle everything else. Don't be afraid!"

Jiaojiao nodded firmly with great trust, and as she passed by, she gave Qingyan a deep look.

Su Ying closed the door. "Su Wen, you're something else! Qingyan and I thought you were half-dead after being beaten up, but it turns out you were enjoying yourself here. We should have known better than to come. We worried for nothing!"

"No, what are you saying? Look at me! The doctor said it's a concussion. Any worse and I'd be a vegetable!" Su Wen cried, pointing to his head. "Luckily I'm alive. Those bastards, I'll deal with them sooner or later when I get out!"

"Alright, I told you before not to cause trouble, that peace brings wealth, but you just wouldn't listen. This time it's just a minor injury, but what about next time? And the time after that? Do you really want everyone to worry about you?" Her gentle words were tinged with concern but also with reproach.

Su Wen took her hand with shame. "I'm sorry, Qingyan, for making you worry. But I'm a man, and I'm the boss. Tell me, can I just stand by and watch my female employee be harassed by those hooligans?"

"You fought for that girl just now?" Qingyan finally realized.

Su Wen sighed, his eyes full of sympathy. "Jiaojiao is a pitiful girl. She came all alone from the countryside and has no one to rely on in Ningcheng. You said she was being bullied, how could I not help her? I also have a responsibility!"

“You stand up for her, and she’ll take care of you here, okay!” She grabbed her bag and left without another word.

Su Wen looked confused. "No, what's wrong now?"

He turned to Su Ying and asked, "Did I say something wrong?"

"You're completely wrong! You're a heartless man!" Su Ying got up and chased after Qingyan.

"No, you said... Ouch..." Su Wen rubbed his forehead, wincing in pain.

What exactly did he say?

"Qingyan!" Su Ying found Qingyan and said, "You've known Su Wen for a long time, don't you understand him? He's just too loyal and sentimental!"

She turned her head slightly to look at the streetlight in the distance, the light condensing into a point in her pupils. "I'm not blaming him for that, I'm just..." "Never mind, Su Ying, I'm fine. I'm relieved to see that Su Wen is alright. Xiao Kai is still at home, so please take care of Su Wen for me. I'll order some nutritious soup for you tomorrow!"

After saying that, she drove away.

Qingyan and Suwen have not registered their marriage in the past four years, which Su Ying does not understand. They clearly love each other deeply and are tolerant and understanding of each other, but they just don't want to register their marriage.

Su Wen said he was unwilling, but he really wanted to have a formal identity. And so, four years passed in the blink of an eye.

Perhaps influenced by Qingyan, Su Wen gradually grew up, becoming more mature and stable. Qingyan was an ideal partner for him, as well as a life mentor, guiding him to work together to change himself.

Su Ying hoped their future would be brighter.
