Mr. Shang, please be passionately in love after marriage.

Cen hope didn't expect to run into Shang Hanzhou here. Wasn't he supposed to be there for an inspection?

Just as she was thinking this, Fang Nian saw her beside her and gave her a friendly smile: "Good evening, Madam."

Cen hope returned his smile.

"Don't worry, with President Shang here, everything will be fine."

Fang Nian said in a low voice.

Cen hope felt a little nervous, not because of anything else, but because, to be honest, she was actually quite unreasonable. Anyone with eyes could see that she had deliberately tricked Zhu Xinyao.

It's understandable that Zhu Xinyao is so angry.

Shang Hanzhou is known for his rationality and composure, and he will not take sides with anyone.

She remembered that in the first year after Shang Hanzhou took over the Yasen Group, some of the merchants' relatives secretly accepted a lot of benefits in his name, and eventually the matter was brought to his attention.

That evening, the relative was taken away by the police for investigation and sentenced to three years in prison.

From then on, no one dared to try to get close to Shang Hanzhou under his nose.

"Brother Hanzhou."

Zhu Xinyao naturally recognized Shang Hanzhou. After all, Cen Ning was the one who was initially engaged to the Shang family, and she naturally became familiar with Cen Ning by following her around.

Shang Hanzhou glanced down coldly. "I don't remember having a sister."

His tone was almost harsh.

Zhu Xinyao choked, her face burning and itchy, feeling incredibly embarrassed.

That's not what I meant...

"Hanzhou".

Just then, a gentle voice came from the phone screen she was holding; it was Cen Ning.

Cen Ning saw him through the video.

Zhu Xinyao then remembered, and she quickly raised her phone, pointing the screen at Shang Hanzhou. "Mr. Shang, look, it's Ningning."

On that small screen of the phone.

Cen Ning's face was slightly blurred. Shang Hanzhou glanced at her indifferently for a second and did not respond to her words.

Cen Ning pushed aside the breakfast in front of her. Even though she knew that he probably couldn't see her clearly from such a distance, she still gave a faint smile in the man's direction.

"Xinyao didn't mean to cause trouble for Xixi. It was Xixi who lied to Xinyao, making her spend seven million on a bunch of outdated clothes. Xinyao was furious, so she chased after her."

In her statement, word by word, she used the word "deception."

She knew Shang Hanzhou's personality well; he always kept public and private matters separate and didn't like people around him engaging in immoral behavior.

Cen hope's actions will only make him dislike her.

Cen hope bit her lip. She admitted that she had done it, but it wasn't like she had forced Zhu Xinyao to spend the seven million. She raised her voice and said, "I didn't force her to buy it."

"Exactly, she bought it voluntarily, what does it have to do with my Xibao?"

Lin Xingyou immediately followed, nervously staring at Shang Hanzhou. If he dared to stand beside Cen Ning today and say a word for Zhu Xinyao, she would definitely make him know what it felt like to have his face scratched.

In the video, Cen Ning gave a cold snort without batting an eye.

Regardless of whether it was voluntary or not, as long as Cen hope really tricked Zhu Xinyao into spending seven million, such behavior would definitely be despised by Shang Hanzhou.

Shang Hanzhou's handsome face did not change much, his deep brows showing his usual indifference.

Zhu Xinyao said, "President Shang, if Cen hope hadn't lied to me, how could I have spent over seven million to buy this pile of old stuff to take home?"

"laugh."

A faint laugh escaped the man's throat, Shang Hanzhou's cold voice low and deep: "Are you brainless?"

what?

Zhu Xinyao froze on the spot, her first reaction being that she had misheard.

Those in the industry know that although Shang Hanzhou has a cold personality, he rarely embarrasses people in public, especially not like now, where he makes people feel awkward as soon as he opens his mouth.

Zhu Xinyao opened her mouth, as if she wanted to say something more, but Shang Hanzhou's voice was even lower, "The money is with you, you spent it yourself, what does it have to do with my wife?"

The implication was that she was making trouble out of nothing.

In the video, Cen Ning was certain that Shang Hanzhou would be unhappy about Cen hope tricking Zhu Xinyao out of seven million yuan, but to her surprise, when he spoke, he subtly defended her!

He wasn't like this before...

Cen Ning gritted her teeth, a hidden resentment rising in her heart.

Is it because Cen hope is his wife that he's so protective of her?

But this position should have been hers.

The mall was bustling with people, and everyone loves to join in the fun. Seeing so many people here, they all stopped and watched from the sidelines.

Zhu Xinyao's face went from white to red, and finally she opened her eyes and cried.

So many people are just watching her make a fool of herself!

It's all Cen hope's fault.

A woman's tears never had any effect on Shang Hanzhou. He glanced at her coldly and indifferently, then his deep gaze returned to Cen hope.

She was carrying only a shopping bag, her brow slightly furrowed.

"You only bought this much?"

Cen hope finally came to her senses. She stared at the handsome face of the man in front of her, and a bittersweet feeling welled up deep in her chest.

That's incredible.

He was actually protecting himself.

Lin Xingyou nudged her just in time, and she replied, "Yes, I've already bought what I wanted."

Clearly, Shang Hanzhou was there to handle work, and she didn't want to bother him any longer, so she took Lin Xingyou's hand and said, "You go ahead with your work, we'll be going now."

She raised her hand and waved to him, then turned around and pressed the elevator button.

Shang Hanzhou raised his eyebrows slightly, watched her enter the elevator, and glanced at Fang Nian out of the corner of his eye.

Fang Nian immediately understood and followed along.

"Madam, let me see you off."

……

The elevator went down to the mall's underground parking garage.

"hope Bao, your husband is so handsome!"

As soon as she stepped out of the elevator, Lin Xingyou began to praise it without any hesitation.

Just because of those few words she said to Zhu Xinyao without hesitation, from today onwards, President Shang's image in her heart will become even more glorious and lofty.

"Get him! hope Bao, you need to get President Shang on board right away."

Lin Xingyou covered her mouth and whispered something in her ear.

We absolutely cannot let someone else take this away from us.

Handsome, fit, rich, and protective of his wife—a man like that would sell out instantly on the market; he'd be in high demand!

Cen hope couldn't help but laugh at her. Although she was initially a little surprised that Shang Hanzhou would talk back to Zhu Xinyao, she now understood that he was just fulfilling his responsibilities as a husband.

"Mrs."

Fang Nian had caught up from behind, holding the car keys in his hand.

"Mr. Shang asked me to take you there."

Lin Xingyou was very clever and quickly said, "You can see me off. As for Xibao, she'll go back with your CEO."

Anyway, we'll be lying in the same bed every night.

It's perfect that we go back together.

Cen hope wanted to go with her, but Lin Xingyou quickly pushed her away and hurriedly went to find the car. "Where's the car? Let's go quickly."

Fang Nian scratched his head and first looked at Cen hope.

"Madam, Mr. Shang's inspection is almost over, and he'll be down soon. Would you like to wait here for a while?"

Hengtai Plaza is a property under the Yasen Group, so even if he drove Lin Xingyou away first, he didn't need to worry about not having another car.

Lin Xingyou was nowhere to be seen by now. Cen hope understood what she meant and didn't press the matter. She nodded and said, "Okay, thank you for taking my friend there."

"My wife's friends are my friends all these years, it's no trouble at all."

Fang Nian patted his chest and assured him, "I will definitely get your friend home safely."

The car lights were on in the garage. Cen hope watched the car drive up the slope. Lin Xingyou sat in the back, rolled down the window, and made a phone call gesture to her.

It means I'll tell her when I get home.

Cen hope nodded, and after the car drove away, she stood quietly in place and waited.

Will Shang Hanzhou know she's here?

She looked down at the clean tips of her shoes, her mind wandering, wondering if she should send him a message to let him know.

Just as I was about to take out my phone to send a message, the quiet elevator doors rang with a "ding".

Having been silent for so long, the sudden sound startled Cen hope.

She unconsciously turned her head to look.

The elevator doors opened, and a tall, imposing man stepped out.

The light fell on his shoulders in a blurred manner, making his three-dimensional features appear even more defined.

Shang Hanzhou strode towards her, his voice calm: "You're home, Mrs. Shang."

He knew she was waiting for him there.
