A black private car was provided for Shen Yi and Qiao He. Taking a driver with them, Qiao He did his job inside the car and canceled all of Shen Yi's appointments for today. Ahh, at least they wouldn't be stuck for another string of long boring meetings with those old men.
Qiao He himself was excited to see what was up with their Young Madam and Wang Zhuyi. He was feeding their circle of friends with updates between his Boss Yi and Miss Lu. Their friends that were staying overseas had been pestering him to let them see a single picture of Young Madam Shen, but Shen Yi had turned down each request.
If they wanted to see her, they should meet her personally, he said.
From the looks of it, Miss Wang was already smitten by Lu Xinyi. The women drove through the downtown area and stopped to rent a bicycle for easy transportation. In anyone's eyes, they looked like another couple on a date, which pissed the demon king immensely.
Lu Xinyi brought Miss Wang to a noodle shop and had their breakfast. The driver of Shen Yi's car had managed to find a good place to park it and watched the women talk to each other.
Shen Yi brought down the window on his side and watched his wife from afar. She was happy, he could see that. He'd never seen his wife this carefree and happy lately. Their past week was filled with stress both from work on his side and studies on her part. He was starting to regret allowing her to attend Silver Leaf.
He had conflicting feelings when he saw her in disguise. Shen Yi hadn't thought about what she would look like if she was born as a man. Now, he didn't need to guess. Lu Xinyi would be a charming, handsome man if she was a man. The women follow her with their eyes, even the ones who wouldn't tend to notice men.
Lu Xinyi had never brought him on such places before. He couldn't even remember the last time they had a dinner date. An idea sprouted from his mind. Maybe next time, she'd agree with him to spend some time with him in public places.
After their meal, Lu Xinyi brought Miss Wang to several stalls, treating her with different streets foods that other socialite women wouldn't dare to taste. This little devil knew how to charm Miss Wang.
Qiao He watched amusedly as his Boss sat inside his car while burning with intense jealousy. It was silly to think that this man, who was known in the business world as a tyrant, was so obsessed and possessive of his wife that he wouldn't even let flies touch her delicate skin.
He knew he should leave her alone and enjoy her days with Miss Wang, but his selfish ass couldn't accept the fact that his wife chose a woman over him this time. Why was everyone trying to take her away from him on weekends?!
It was past lunchtime when the two women decided to come back to Shen Group, but Lu Xinyi took a turn and stopped at a local cafe near the business district. Miss Wang came inside alone, leaving Lu Xinyi in the car.
At this moment, Lu Xinyi decided to send her husband a message.
[Hi, darling. How's your day? Missing you. ~mwuah]
The moment he received her message, Shen Yi replied immediately.
[Where are you?]
There was a moment of waiting before his phone beeped with a message.
[Out with a friend. I'll see you this afternoon.]
[With who?]
Lu Xinyi didn't answer his question. A minute later, she followed Wang Zhuyin inside the cafe. Thankfully, Qiao He's team was able to plant a wiretapping device on Lu Xinyi's jacket while she and Wang Zhuyi were busy eating crepes.
Qiao He kept the device on and adjusted its frequency. They'd been spying on Young Madam's date, and the demon king didn't spare her some privacy. Why would he when he should be the one dating her and not Wang Zhuyi?
Wang Zhuyi was in trouble, but Lu Xinyi didn't dare to help the woman. She sat near the commotion as if waiting for something to happen, and when the scenes turned physical, she jolted up from her seat and protected Wang Zhuyi from being hurt.
Shen Yi gritted his teeth when a slap landed on his wife's face. He was half-tempted to go out and drag her away from that place. These disgusting, vile vermin hurt his wife? His cute, little naughty wife?
Qiao He turned his sight at the back seat when he heard a crack. He suddenly lost all color in his face when he saw what happened.
My god, Shen Yi smashed his laptop out of anger. He hadn't seen this boss this mad for a long time. Who had dared to wake up the demon from his slumber?
"Boss Yi, calm down." Qiao He tried to pacify the demon king but failed.
Would the demon not spare those poor souls and drag them down the hell?
Somehow, Qiao He was thankful that Shen Yi's files always had a backup. It didn't matter how many laptops he would smash out of anger, but that wasn't really cheap in Qiao He's opinion. The one his boss was using was custom-made and built specifically for his needs and work.
"Don't worry about me, Brother Fei…"
They heard Wang Zhuyi's voice followed by Lu Xinyi's.
"How could I not? I saw you were crying. What do you want me to do? I'm the man here. I should be the one to protect you."
Lu Xinyi's voice was able to make the demon king calm down a little. She was right. He was the man, and he should be responsible for protecting her, not suffocating her with his demands.
He was perfectly aware that she would be able to handle her own problems. It was just his pride wouldn't allow him to admit that she didn't really need him to handle every situation that wasn't favorable to her.
She knew he would be always there to help her when she needed it, but Shen Yi had to convince himself that she had her own battles that she had to face alone.
Shen Yi leaned back in his seat and stared at his wife's face, who was leaving the cafe with Wang Zhuyi.
"Let's go back." Shen Yi's icy voice made Qiao He and the driver sweat in fear.
---
Back at the Shen Group…
Shen Yi stared down at the documents he'd left on his desk earlier to stalk his wife. Without his laptop, he couldn't check his other work until another new one was provided.
Qiao He waited for his Boss Yi to calm down. He took out his phone and opened their WeChat group chat and sent a stolen photo of his Boss Yi he took earlier.
[My god, who wake the demon up?] Zhao Xi commented.
[Oh, dear. Should I expect another case to file or resolve soon?] Kang Wei asked.
[Shit. Do I need to book the earliest flight I could get? I think he is about to murder someone. Who pissed him off?]
[Is it Xue? His brother is really asking some troubles from him. What happened anyway?]
Qiao He expected that their chat group would be active once he posted, but what he failed to remember was that his Boss Yi was also a member of their group. He was about to key in his reply when he felt a sudden coldness behind his back.
He quickly hid his phone and faced his boss.
"Boss Yi, Young Madam and Miss Wang are back," he informed him.
Shen Yi immediately left his work, but before he could leave his office, he turned to his nervous assistant.
"Send the replacement immediately, and I need those transcripts that I've told you ASAP."
Qiao He's face was like he'd been unfairly punished for someone else mistaken. He fought not to groan in disappointment. Well, at least Shen Yi would turn his anger to the right person later.
With the venture of the Shen Group and Wang Corporation now closed, Shen Xue wouldn't have to worry about being pressured by Matriarch Shen; but would he be able to avoid his brother's wrath?
Shen Yi opened the door of the conference room where his wife and brother were. Both didn't notice his presence until he forced his way to sit beside Lu Xinyi. The horror written all over her face was almost comical.
Ahh, Lu Xinyi was handsome, alright; but could she beat the charm of her demon husband?Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click www.webnovel.com for visiting.
