The mischievous smile on Xi Shanshan's face made Su Mingxian blush deeply.
The atmosphere instantly became lively.
"Cut one, cut one—"
Fang Dahai led the cheer, banging on the table and clapping his hands, insisting that she serve lamb to Shen Chi. Su Mingxian had no choice but to brace herself and go along with it. As a result—
Grilled fish, oysters, scallops, and prawns...
Su Mingxian felt completely overwhelmed, finally unable to hold back, she exclaimed, "Is this never going to end?"
As soon as those words left her mouth, she met Shen Chi's innocent gaze.
Shen Chi seemed to say: It's not my fault; they made me do it.
Frustrated, Su Mingxian slammed her chopsticks on the table. "Whatever! I’m done!"
This only elicited another round of hearty laughter.
Everyone enjoyed the meal, especially Shen Chi, whose eyes sparkled with barely concealed amusement.
The only one who looked gloomy was Huangpu River; he felt that his promotion was becoming increasingly distant. What was he to do?
...
"Is this the share contract that Su Mingxian gave you?" father Xi asked from the couch, legs crossed.
Xi Shanshan yawned as she replied, "Yeah, what's wrong with it?"
Father Xi frowned, "As far as I know, she bought the new shop for less than one hundred fifty thousand, and you invested ten thousand yet only received ten percent of the shares. Don't you think that's a bit low?"
Xi Shanshan yawned again, "Is it low? I think it's fine."
Seeing his daughter’s clueless expression, Father Xi looked frustrated. Xi Shanshan quickly sat up straight. "Well, Dad, even though Sister Xian didn't give me many shares, I think it's reasonable. After all, I only invested money and I'm not involved in the management. The shop, the recipes, and the operations are all handled by Sister Xian. Isn’t that good?"
"Good my foot." Father Xi glared at her. "But it says here that your piece of land is included in this."
Xi Shanshan was taken aback. "Wasn't that what we agreed on? Dad, is there something wrong with Sister Xian's contract?"
Hearing this, Father Xi furrowed his brows tightly and finally sighed, "Well, there isn't really a problem."
"Then that's good." After saying that, Xi Shanshan flopped back onto the sofa.
Father Xi looked at her helplessly and flipped through the contract again, muttering to himself, "This girl seems to just want to do business with you; she never intended to take your land."
"Over ten million, Dad. It's too hard," Xi Shanshan said with a pained expression as she looked up at him. Father Xi shot her a glare. "You say it's hard without even trying? Pathetic."
Xi Shanshan pouted in grievance, and Father Xi continued, "With your lack of ambition, you'll have to rely on that Fang kid."
Xi Shanshan suddenly stood up. "No way."
Father Xi looked at her in surprise while Xi Shanshan's face turned red as she stammered, "I... I don't like him. I don't want to marry him."
Father Xi chuckled at her words. "Spend more time together and you'll grow to like him."
After saying that, he handed her the contract and stood up. "Alright, I need to head to the company now. Make sure to get along well with Fang Xiaozi."
“Um, good morning!”
Su Mingxian felt a bit awkward. After all, things had gotten quite chaotic yesterday, and now facing Shen Chi, it felt strange.
“Morning.” Shen Chi glanced at her indifferently and walked straight towards the door.
“Leaving this early?” Su Mingxian looked up at the sky in surprise; it was barely dawn.
“Yeah, I have something to do.” After a moment of contemplation, he added seriously, “Stay away from Qin Dongming.”
“What?”
Su Mingxian was momentarily taken aback, then her expression soured. “It’s been so many days, and you still remember that? We just ran into each other by chance. He was only being kind. Don’t overthink it. Besides, we’re about to get a divorce; aren’t you being a bit too nosy?”
“Su Mingxian.” Shen Chi’s face darkened instantly as he looked at her coldly. “The divorce is up for discussion.”
With that, he pushed the door open and left. Su Mingxian stared wide-eyed after him. “Why is it up for discussion? Didn’t we agree on this? Hey—”
But unfortunately, Shen Chi had already walked far away. Su Mingxian felt utterly frustrated. What did he mean? Was he having second thoughts? That couldn’t happen.
