He remembered that he hadn't removed the woman from the blacklist.

Lin Qingxue did deliberately get a new card, but it was clearly an old number.

No need to ask, this woman probably did it when she touched his phone yesterday.

That damned habit got the better of him; he used to never be on guard against him.

But seeing it doesn't matter; seeing it is much more convincing than telling her.

If you tell her, she'll probably think Chen Shi'an is bragging.

I'm deliberately trying to annoy her.

Once you see it for yourself, you can't help but believe it.

"What is it now?" Chen Shi'an asked with a hint of helplessness after answering the phone.

"Chen Shi'an, this time it's important business. Sun Erpang is looking for me."

"Apologize to me and hope I will forgive him," Lin Qingxue said softly.

"Sun Erpang? What's up? You've been dating someone again lately? But you realized I'm better and broke up with her, so she's contacting you again?" Chen Shi'an asked!

"Chen Shi'an, are you trying to vent your anger by making me die?" Lin Qingxue really couldn't hold back any longer.

"What does Sun Erpang asking you for forgiveness have to do with me?" Chen Shi'an said helplessly!

"Sun Erpang is the fat guy from last night. I guess your friend threatened him. He sounded quite pitiful on the phone and even asked me to apologize to him in person."

"Do you think I should go?" Lin Qingxue asked.

"Go ahead! I won't dare do anything to you. Besides, it's up to you whether you forgive me or not!" Chen Shi'an said calmly.

"Chen Shi'an, when did you make such an amazing friend?"

"And that day, the people sitting with you were all high-ranking officials from the Fourth Hospital, as well as that middle-aged man surnamed Liang." Lin Qingxue couldn't help but ask his question.

"Oh, about that!"

"Let me put it this way! Actually, I've always had a pretty impressive background. The reason I've been with you these past few years is to test your sincerity."

"I was planning to tell you the truth, but then you threatened to divorce me. Sigh, you ultimately couldn't withstand the test!"

"Otherwise, the life you want is within your grasp," Chen Shi'an said calmly.

"Chen Shi'an, are you trying to fool me like a three-year-old?" Lin Qingxue said irritably!

"Are you taking advantage of me because I've never read online novels?" Lin Qingxue said irritably!

This plot is so overused, even though Lin Qingxue rarely reads online novels, she has seen these kinds of comeback and face-slapping tropes while watching short videos, hasn't she?

"Don't talk nonsense. Even adults believe that, let alone a three-year-old. Can a three-year-old even read?"

"For example, that book, 'She Regretted Divorcing the Female CEO,' is really good," Chen Shi'an said with a smile!

(The author's name is Yun Xue Jiao Yang, you're welcome.)

Yes, after the divorce, his ex-wife cried and begged to come back.

Chen Shi'an used to genuinely envy that author.

It's good that the writing is nice, and the guy is so handsome too.

"Get lost! I'm not listening to your nonsense anymore," Lin Qingxue said irritably, and then hung up the phone.

Chen Shi'an shook his head and smiled, meeting Jiang Yao's eyes. "Your ex-wife?"

"Absolutely!"

"Was it her last night?" Jiang Yao asked.

"Hmm!" Chen Shi'an nodded.

"Have you rekindled your old flame?" Jiang Yao asked.

"How is that possible?" Chen Shi'an said irritably!

"So what? Aren't you just being a kind-hearted person?"

"It's normal for people to revisit familiar paths," Jiang Yao said with a smile.

"Besides, I'm not jealous," Jiang Yao said softly.

Chen Shi'an blinked; he seriously doubted that Jiang Yao knew as much as he did.

Taking a sip of tea, Chen Shi'an changed the subject, "Did the Liang family take you home last night?"

"Mm!" Jiang Yao nodded.

"Sister Zhenzhen told me to visit her often in the future," Jiang Yao said in a low voice.

"Then go ahead, why are you asking me about this?" Chen Shi'an said with a smile!

Jiang Yao glanced at Chen Shi'an, then smiled sweetly, "Isn't it all because of you?"

"I..." Jiang Yao hesitated, unable to finish her sentence.

Chen Shi'an couldn't help but smile. "You're bored by yourself, so it would be nice to go chat with her when you have some free time."

"I'm not around often, but if anything happens, there'll be someone to look after me."

"Besides, as an older sister, I have to side with my younger brother. Having someone watch over you will prevent you from being kidnapped. You're so handsome; if someone kidnaps you, I'll be heartbroken," Chen Shi'an said with a smile.

Jiang Yao chuckled, "You're just trying to coax me."

"As long as you don't say you don't want me, I'll follow you for the rest of my life," Jiang Yao whispered.

Almost the entire day is spent in a flurry of activity.

As dusk fell, Chen Shi'an stretched wearily.

The phone rang. "Senior," Chen Shi'an answered, his timing perfect.

"Come out, I'll be waiting for you at the door," Li Wan said bluntly.

"Is this another appointment?" Jiang Yao asked!

"Yeah, she was my senior in school, we had a good relationship."

"You go back first," Chen Shi'an said.

"Okay!" Jiang Yao nodded.

As soon as he stepped out of the gate, he saw Li Wan sitting in a car, wearing large sunglasses, waving at him.

Chen Shi'an opened the car door and got in.

"So free today?" Chen Shi'an asked with a smile!

"I haven't treated you to a meal in the few days I've been here. Even if you're busy, you have to make time for me, right?" Li Wan said with a smile!

"Why are we being so polite between us?" Chen Shi'an chuckled.

"Yes, we don't need to be polite between us, so you don't hold back at all when you're ripping me off. How can your heart be so dirty?"

"Qingxue isn't paying attention to me anymore." Li Wan rolled her eyes at Chen Shi'an.

Chen Shi'an was both amused and exasperated. "Is this my fault? Who knew she would believe it? Besides, how wicked you were! Bringing her here back then."

"Alright then, we're even." Li Wan smiled.

"Alright, let's observe three seconds of silence for Lin Qingxue," Chen Shi'an said with a smile.

Li Wan glared at Chen Shi'an. What did he mean? Was he implying that her relationship with Lin Qingxue was fragile?

It wasn't actually that good to begin with.

Li Wan tilted her head and glanced at Chen Shi'an, her eyes crinkling with laughter.

"What do you want to eat? It's my treat today."

"Just a bite is fine, I'm not a picky eater," Chen Shi'an said with a smile.

"No, your sister Yingying invited you to the Feng residence, I can't refuse, can I?" Li Wan said with a smile!

"Okay, you can arrange it as you see fit!" Chen Shi'an said.

Li Wan smiled and started driving.

Chen Shi'an stared in astonishment at the buffet in front of him.

"Bathroom, self-service, all-inclusive, how about it?"

"People say that the best bathhouses in the country are in Northeast China, and the best bathhouses in Northeast China are in Shenyang. What, you're still not satisfied?" Li Wan laughed!

"Satisfied, satisfied." Chen Shi'an nodded.

"This seems to have a bath for couples, right?" Chen Shi'an asked with a smile!

"Pah, you really dare to think that way." Li Wan rolled her eyes at Chen Shi'an.

Chen Shi'an laughed heartily.

Li Wan bought the tickets, changed her clothes, and then went upstairs to eat.

After dinner, Chen Shi'an soaked in the warm water in the bathtub, looking quite content.
