Shen Mingzhou froze on the spot once again.

she knows.

She really knows everything.

Realizing that Su Wanqing had leaked everything, a dark glint flashed in Shen Mingzhou's eyes, but he didn't show it in front of Yan Xuxu. "I'll make her move out."

"No need, I like living here."

Shen Mingzhou felt a surge of guilt because of her understanding.

He couldn't help but take two steps closer to her, his voice gentle, "Whatever you want, I can give you, and I will never shortchange you."

Yan Xuxu stepped back, her aloofness undisguised. "I can have whatever I want?"

"certainly."

She's already made concessions; he should give her some compensation.

Yan Xuxu naturally wouldn't stand on ceremony.

However, what she asked for and what he gave her were completely different in nature.

The former makes her seem greedy.

The latter made her seem sensible.

Shen Mingzhou's phone rang again.

It was Su Wanqing calling again.

He didn't answer, muted the phone, and turned to look at Yan Xuxu.

"No rush, take your time to think it over, and tell me when you've figured it out."

After speaking, he hesitated for a moment, but still confessed, "Although Wanqing has saved the child, she is still very weak. I have to go and see her."

Yan Xuxu was focused on the ice cream and didn't look at him. "Hmm."

Shen Mingzhou felt even more empty inside.

He had a feeling that once he stepped out of that door today, he and Yan Xuxu would never be able to go back.

But Su Wanqing kept calling, and if he didn't rush over soon, she might cause a scene.

"Take care of yourself. Call me if anything happens."

He left hastily after uttering those final words.

Yan Xuxu's eyes switched instantly, becoming as cold as ice.

It's good that they've come clean.

She no longer needed to play the role of a "good wife" in front of him.

After receiving the medical book, I left.

Shen Mingzhou and Ming'an Group have nothing to do with her.

However, before leaving, she had to give Shen Mingzhou a big gift.

Yan Xuxu closed the door and turned back to the villa.

I went upstairs to the study, turned on the computer, saved the video of Su Wanqing cheating on me from my phone to a USB drive, and then put it in a file folder.

In less than a month, it will be her and Shen Mingzhou's official fifth wedding anniversary.

Just consider it as such.

Anniversary gift.

Of course, there's much more to her than that.

I stayed with Ming'an Group, that's for the medical books.

But she wants to take all the collaborations she worked so hard to secure with her!

Yan Xuxu took out her phone again and called Lin Huan. "Huanhuan, the time is almost right."

After finishing these tasks, Yan Xuxu was a little hungry and was about to go downstairs to get something to eat when the ice cream started beeping again.

"Ice cream, you're being naughty again!"

Yan Xuxu scolded it, and Xuegao suddenly rushed to the door and continued barking.

Yan Xuxu walked over and took a look.

Good guy.

That madman, Jie Lanyuan, has climbed over the wall again!

He was standing at the door, skillfully deciphering her family's new access control system.

Yan Xuxu was furious. Before he could decipher the code, she opened the door and yelled at him, "Jie Lanyuan, this is theft!"

"If I knock on the door, will you open it?" Xie Lanyuan strode in and hugged her tightly.

Yan Xuxu struggled, "No."

"That's it. If you won't open it, I'll have to do it myself."

He spoke as if it were his own home.

Yan Xuxu was amused by his shamelessness and gritted her teeth to remind him, "This is my home, not a place you can come and go as you please."

"Did my mom contact you?"

Jie Lanyuan ignored her words and whispered hoarsely in her ear.

Yan Xuxu's eyes turned slightly cold as she thought of Jiang Suyun's attitude. "Since you knew that, you shouldn't have come here."

Jie Lanyuan nuzzled her hair with the tip of his nose; it smelled sweet and soft, the scent of magnolia that she loved most.

Cool and elegant, clean yet alluring.

He kissed her passionately, his eyes tender and lingering. "What did she say to you?"

"Let me go first, then we'll talk."

"I won't let go."

Jie Lanyuan clung tightly to her, his nose rubbing against her neck.

The bite mark was very deep.

A day later, scabs began to form, becoming even more noticeable and sparking much speculation.

Yan Xuxu suddenly realized that she had never truly understood this man.

What cold-heartedness?

What do you mean by decisive and ruthless?

What do you mean by not being close to women?

This is clearly a wolf in sheep's clothing!

No matter how hard I try, I can't shake them off.

Yan Xuxu couldn't break free and, having exhausted all her strength, asked breathlessly, "What exactly do you want to do?"

"Don't listen to anything my mom says."

His voice was indescribably low, husky, and magnetic as it gently brushed against her earlobe, a silent teasing.

Yan Xuxu's body trembled slightly.

So he came here specifically because he knew Jiang Suyun had contacted her, and he came to explain to her.

Suddenly, the door to his heart, which had long been closed for him, was knocked open.

A crack appeared.

A strange emotion seeped in.

Realizing she had lost her composure, she gave him another push. "She's right. I'm an amateur; what right do I have to perform surgery on Sisi?"

"Also, Mr. Xie has a fiancée, so we should definitely keep our distance."

Jie Lanyuan held her hand tightly, hugging her even more. "She doesn't know your identity, that's why she questions your medical skills. Don't take it to heart."

"As for Lin Qingyi, things between us are really not what you think."

A storm raged in Yan Xuxu's eyes, instantly turning as cold as a winter star. "What happens between you and her is none of my business."

They are just business partners.

There's nothing there!

Isn't that right?

"Zhizhi, don't talk to me like that." Xie Lanyuan's stubborn tone revealed a hint of anger. "You know the consequences if you provoke me."

Yan Xuxu knew what he meant by the consequences.

His temper is unpredictable.

Last night's punishment was a warning.

She dared not provoke him again.

Seeing that she had calmed down, Jie Lanyuan softened his tone considerably and nuzzled her earlobe with the tip of his nose. "Have you eaten? I haven't. Stay with me."

"have eaten."

She didn't want to have dinner with him.

But no sooner had he finished speaking than his stomach growled at an inopportune moment.

In such an atmosphere, it felt particularly abrupt and out of place.

Yan Xuxu was extremely embarrassed and turned her head away, her face turning red.

Xie Lanyuan chuckled softly, then lifted her up by the waist with a strong grip. "Looks like you haven't eaten yet."

Yan Xuxu, suspended in mid-air, couldn't help but cry out, "You really ate it, let me go."

"That's because they haven't eaten enough."

Xie Lanyuan carried her to the sofa and pressed down on her. Yan Xuxu thought he was going to do something again and struggled fiercely, "Xie Lanyuan, I'm warning you, don't do anything rash..."

"What are you thinking about?"

Jie Lanyuan brushed the stray hairs from her forehead and gently flicked her forehead. "Sit down and rest for a while. I'll go cook."

After saying that, he stood up, took off his suit jacket in front of her, and handed it to her casually.

Yan Xuxu hugged it tightly.

It was like when he used to ask her to keep his clothes safe while he played on the court.
