Lin Wanmeng, who was choked by this sentence, stopped talking.

However, as she mulled over this question in her heart, she suddenly had an urge to throw the divorce agreement in Ye Lingxiao’s face and proudly tell him that she no longer wanted to stay in this house.

And another rational consideration smothered her thoughts.

Lin Wanmeng closed her eyes and convinced herself that it was to take revenge. “How can that be? Unless President Ye is tired of it, I will naturally listen to President Ye.”

The couple, who looked united but were at odds with each other, closed their eyes with their backs to each other and slept uneasily.

The next morning, when Lin Wanmeng opened her eyes, Ye Lingxiao was no longer at home.

She turned around and got off the bed. As soon as she went downstairs, she heard the housekeeper call out in a surprised voice, “Mrs. Ye, someone sent a bouquet of flowers over.”

Lin Wanmeng was stunned. Then, she heard the butler say, “Should we find a vase to put it in?”

The butler thought that the flower was a gift from Ye Lingxiao and looked at Lin Wanmeng with envy.

Lin Wanmeng glanced at the flowers and sneered.

This couldn’t be Ye Lingxiao’s methods. She opened the card on the flower and took a look. It was indeed what Shen Yusong would do.

Flowers, music, and a moment of eye contact in the crowd were perfect for deceiving young girls who yearned for love.

Shen Yusong had played this trick countless times and was already familiar with it.

Unfortunately, Lin Wanmeng, who had already been tricked once, no longer believed in such a clumsy technique. She fiddled with the petals aimlessly and suddenly smiled. “Okay, let’s put it in the living room.”

Seeing that the things he had given were not thrown out of the villa, Shen Yusong quickly took the next step.

He knew very well that Lin Wanmeng had been deceived by him last time and was heartbroken. Therefore, she would not forgive him easily. Hence, he skipped the preparations to beg for mercy and apologize. He directly tried to use romance to conquer Lin Wanmeng.

At noon, Lin Wanmeng had just finished her work when an assistant handed her a concert ticket.

These people thought that they were Lin Wanmeng’s suitors, so they could not hide the envy and jealousy in their eyes. This was probably Shen Yusong’s goal. He was not afraid that Ye Lingxiao would find trouble with him after making such a big fuss.

However, she could understand. After receiving the flowers in the morning, Lin Wanmeng specially called Old Madam Ye.

From Old Madam Ye, it turned out that Ye Lan wanted the shares of Ye Lingxiao’s company recently, but she did not have the money.

As Ye Lan’s son, Shen Yusong naturally had to work together with his mother.

However, Shi Qiuqiu’s Lin Corporation was on the verge of bankruptcy and could not fork out the money. They were about to sell the company’s assets.

As such, Shen Yusong could only count on Lin Wanmeng’s Qinyu Company.

This person had always been flexible and would not let go of any opportunity. Lin Wanmeng held the ticket and pondered for a moment.

He had made so many preparations, but he did not show himself. Was he trying to play hard to get?

Unfortunately, Shen Yusong did not have that much time. The shares of the corporation would be confirmed in three days. By then, it would be useless to fork out the money.

Just as Lin Wanmeng had guessed, Shen Yusong appeared at the entrance of Lin Wanmeng’s company on time after work.

He held a rose in his hand and looked at Lin Wanmeng affectionately as she walked out of the building.

“What are you doing here?” Lin Wanmeng’s angry and coquettish look made Shen Yusong’s thoughts run wild.

He did not directly state his purpose. Instead, he explained, “It’s not safe outside recently. I’m here to pick you up from work.”

Shen Yusong’s thoughtfulness would appear in the right places. Lin Wanmeng lowered her eyes to hide the scheming look in them.

“I’m not going to the concert with you.”

Shen Yusong knew that Lin Wanmeng was not so easily moved. In the face of such a merciless rejection, he still maintained a good attitude.

“I’m just here to take you home. I don’t have any other intentions.”

In Shen Yusong’s eyes, his playing hard to get was very effective. Lin Wanmeng let go of her worries and sat in the same car as him.

Although there was still a distance, it was much better than his previous cold appearance.

He hummed through his nose and licked his upper lip inadvertently.

Originally, this woman refused to be intimate with him, but he knew that he was about to lose everything, so he threw her away.

Unexpectedly, the other party turned around and became his uncle’s wife.

Shen Yusong, who was already interested in Lin Wanmeng, could not help but be curious. How did Lin Wanmeng hook up with Ye Lingxiao?

Moreover, Ye Lingxiao did not get a divorce even after he woke up!

Could it be that.. there was something extraordinary about her?

Shen Yusong’s gaze began to scan Lin Wanmeng’s body without restraint. Lin Wanmeng smiled and accidentally dropped the cup in her hand, hitting Shen Yusong’s knee.

“Ah!”

“I’m sorry.”

Lin Wanmeng pretended to be flustered and went to pick up her cup. The side of her face rubbed against the back of Shen Yusong’s hand. The smooth touch immediately made Shen Yusong forget the pain.

“It’s okay, as long as you’re not hurt.”

He bared his teeth, but he still put on a gentle smile. It looked a little tragic.

Lin Wanmeng held back her laughter, but her gaze towards the car window was cold enough.

Lin Wanmeng did not expect Shen Yusong to dare to come back to look for her. However, it was nothing. She should teach such a shameless person a lesson.

After sending Lin Wanmeng home, Shen Yusong lay on the sofa and panted. He was thinking about how to go further.

He turned on his phone and contacted a team.

That night, a 1,000-word essay was sent to Lin Wanmeng through a text message. He sincerely admitted his previous mistakes and hoped that Lin Wanmeng would give him a chance to turn over a new leaf.

At that moment, Lin Wanmeng was lying on the bed with a cold gaze.

Ye Lingxiao pushed open the door and saw Lin Wanmeng put down her phone. He had found out who that person was in the afternoon, but he did not take it seriously at first.

In Ye Lingxiao’s impression, Lin Wanmeng was not a brainless person. How could a scumbag like Shen Yusong devote his heart to a relationship?

However, the men who appeared one after another beside Lin Wanmeng made him very unhappy.

“Don’t forget tomorrow is the day we return to the old mansion.”

Lin Wanmeng nodded slightly. Her obedience was a little suspicious.

Just as Shen Yusong was about to fall asleep, Lin Wanmeng replied.

“How do I know you’re not lying to me? You’re so afraid of your uncle that you don’t dare to have any conflict with him. Now that I’m his wife, how can you guarantee that you’ll stand on my side?”

Shen Yusong was overjoyed and quickly expressed his loyalty. “Don’t worry, you’re the only one I have. I’m not afraid of anyone for you.”

The person on the other end of the phone seemed to be weighing something. After a while, he said something.

“I’ll go to the old mansion tomorrow. You have to promise me at the old mansion. Otherwise, I won’t believe you.”

This meant that there was a chance.

Shen Yusong calculated their current amount. There was still a huge gap. However, if Lin Wanmeng was willing to use all the funds of the Qinyu Company to support them..

Then everything was ready.
