Hunt her

Shen Yi pushed Yan Xu to sit down in the dining room: "Stay put and don't steal my attention from the food in the pot."

"...Who stole your attention?" Yan Xu said, throwing a tantrum. "You're not making it sound like I'm a petty person."

Shen Yi cleaned up the mess in the pot, and said with a doting and gentle smile, "Yes, my queen is right, I'm the one who's petty."

Yan Xu was satisfied; that was more like it.

Because the main dish was ruined, Shen Yi made a separate dish of boiled fish.

At the table, there were two meat dishes, one vegetable dish, and a soup. Yan Xu ate until his belly bulged slightly.

Shen Yi was instantly charmed by the way she tilted her head back and touched her belly.

Yan Xu stared at the ceiling and sighed, "It feels like my anorexia was in a past life."

Now she eats well, sleeps well, and everything is fine for her.

It seems that the Yan Xu who became somatized due to psychological repression has differentiated from her body, and the current Yan Xu has been reborn as a more sunny and life-enjoying person.

The person who brought about such a huge and happy change in her was Shen Yi.

Shen Yi served her a bowl of meatball soup, which she liked: "I put a lot of effort into taking care of you, so you have to keep it up. If you get back to being skin and bones like before, the kind of person who looks like they're about to fall over when they walk, I'll deal with you in bed."

"..." Yan Xu glanced at him disdainfully, "Can't you be a little gentler, you filthy scoundrel."

The two had the air of an old married couple, speaking intimately without any restraint.

Shen Yi shook his head, looking smug: "It's because I can only be in charge in bed."

Normally, when Yan Xu tells him to go east, he won't even glance at the north, south, or west.

If his business partners and people in the wealthy second-generation circle knew that he was like this in his relationships, they would probably be shocked.

The spoiled brat who used to throw punches at the slightest provocation is actually henpecked.

However, if she wants him to stop in one area, well, sorry... he's in charge of his own domain.

Yan Xu finished his soup, and after eating and drinking his fill, he went to the living room and lay down.

Now she's not only not thin, she looks like she's almost gained weight.

Yan Xu was a little worried: "If I get fat, will you leave me?"

Shen Yi had just picked up a piece of food with his chopsticks and hadn't even put it in his mouth when he was stunned by her words: "Then you're underestimating my feelings for you. Besides, if one pet is skinny and bony in front of you, and the other is plump and fat, which one would you prefer?"

Yan Xu thought for a moment and said, "Let's make it chubby. If it's too thin, I'll worry that it might be sick. A chubby one is cuter and gives me more of a sense of accomplishment."

"That's right." Shen Yi also didn't understand why society's aesthetic standards favored thinness.

We would worry about the health of any animal if it were too thin, but it seems that humans are always pursuing thinness, and some people are so thin that they are just skin and bones, and people still praise them for their good figure.

I wonder when this distorted aesthetic will change.

Beauty should be any appearance within the healthy range, not just being thin.

"It's snowing outside again."

Yan Xu walked to the balcony and reached out to catch the falling snowflakes.

It's still bright outside, and the snow falling looks like a fine drizzle, only lighter and softer.

After Shen Yi finished eating and cleared the table, he looked up at her back as she stood on the balcony and exclaimed sincerely, "Beautiful."

Yan Xu turned around, and the light shone behind her, causing their eyes to meet in the air.

She tilted her head and asked him, "So, who's prettier, me or the snow?"

With an arrogant expression, she seemed to already know his answer.

Shen Yi took off his apron and slowly approached her with his long legs. He bent down to look her in the eye and his breath brushed against her lips, an ambiguous and alluring gesture.

He smiled, his eyes crinkling: "I've always been looking at you."

Yan Xu's ears burned from his gaze. Blushing, she avoided his eyes and awkwardly pointed behind her, saying, "Then... then you should look outside."

Shen Yi looked up at her following her hand, but after only two or three seconds, his gaze returned to her: "Yeah, I saw it. You're still the prettiest."

"Smooth-talking." Yan Xu fidgeted with his fingers sheepishly, trying to hide his nervousness and slight excitement.

Shen Yi raised his hand and gently brushed her nose, finally leaving a kiss on her red lips: "Don't stay on the balcony for too long, it's cold outside."

"Oh." Yan Xu was very receptive to his charm, which was subtle yet not oppressive. "Hey, hurry up and go in."

Yan Xu pushed him away, afraid that if the two continued to look at each other, they should move to the bedroom.

......

After the Shenyi Technology issue was resolved, Shen Yi went through a lot of trouble to find out who was behind the framing.

Shen Yi called Xu Jing: "Come to my company at three o'clock this afternoon."

The words did not allow the other party to have even the slightest intention to refuse.

Xu Jing: "Does President Shen treat every invitation to someone like he's summoning employees?"

Shen Yi sat in his office, toying with a custom-made fountain pen in his hand, and said casually, "If I were to sue you for fraud and false accusation, you wouldn't even have a chance to answer the phone right now."

There was a long silence on the other end of the phone before Xu Jing reluctantly agreed.

Although Shenyi Technology was built up by Shen Yi himself, without relying on the Shen Group, it does not mean that Shenyi Technology is easy to bully.

3 PM.

Xu Jing came to Shenyi Technology to find Shen Yi as promised.

When he sat face-to-face with Shen Yi across the desk, it had to be said that Shen Yi's aura was far superior to his.

Shen Yi was born into privilege, and his aura was the confidence of a superior cultivated from childhood whispers and observations.

Compared to Xu Jing, who had only crossed social classes a little over a year ago, his aura was mostly just a bluff.

Xu Jing: "What do you want?"

Shen Yi took a sip of tea and said unhurriedly, "Do you want to bankrupt me? Or do you want me to go to jail so you can get closer to Yan Xu? Which reason is it?"

He spoke frankly, laying Xu Jing's thoughts bare in the open.

Xu Jing pretended not to understand what he was saying: "With Shenyi Technology developing so well, how could I possibly bankrupt you? As for Yan Xu... she probably didn't even know you when she started dating me."

"Bang!"

Shen Yi crushed the teacup with his bare hands.

He had a minor cut on his palm, but he just calmly glanced at the bloodstains, wiped them with a tissue, and finally wrapped his palm with a silk scarf.

His expression remained completely unchanged throughout, eerily calm.

"How did you negotiate?" Shen Yi asked casually, raising his eyes.

Xu Jing swallowed hard: "We've done everything normal couples do, like holding hands, hugging, and kissing..."

He actually wanted to suggest going to bed, but he was afraid that Shen Yi would press a shard of teacup against his neck the next second.

Shen Yi sneered: "Oh? Yan Xu said you two haven't even held hands. Should I believe you or her?"

"..." Xu Jing fell silent.

It's easy to make a man feel inferior. Just expose his boastful lies, trample on his pride without reservation, and make him realize his own worth.

Shen Yi: "Get lost. I'll let you go this time for Yan Xu's sake. But if you dare to mess with Yan Xu again, don't blame me for coming after you with interest."

He spoke calmly, as if he were talking about a trivial matter.

Xu Jing left Shenyi Technology and didn't realize until he got into the car that his back was soaked with cold sweat.

Shen Yi called Yan Xu, his demeanor completely different from his previous aloofness: "Wife, someone is bullying me..."
