After sending Andy out the door, he came back with his heart half-cold, he sat on the sofa in a dejected state, not knowing what to do.
Auntie Wang brought him a cup of freshly brewed qi replenishing wolfberry tea.
“Mr. Shan heard the doctor say that you have a bit of qi deficiency and asked me to brew you a cup of wolfberry tea every day.”
Shen Yuhan said absent-mindedly1神情不屬 (shén qíng bù shǔ): absent-minded; mind is not here; Refers to lack of concentration.: “Thank you.”
Auntie Wang stood aside and didn’t leave as usual, she slowly opened her mouth: “Mr. Shen, I just heard you chatting with that gentleman.”
“Um?” The listless Shen Yuhan raised his head, he rarely heard Auntie Wang talk to him about things other than the kitchen.
Auntie Wang seems to be in her early fifties, well-maintained, has a better temperament than many women, and doesn’t talk much, in fact, Shen Yuhan knew that she was quite talkative and knew how to get along with others, she usually worked quietly.
Today, she will open her mouth because she can’t stand to watch it.
Auntie Wang said: “I have been cooking for Mr. Shan for many years, although I am older than you, but I don’t dare to take advantage of my seniority2倚老賣老 (yǐ lǎo mài lǎo): take advantage of one’s seniority; (derogatory) to rely on one’s seniority or old age to look down on others or do things; exploit/flaunt one’s seniority; use one’s age to prove one’s superiority., however, I am willing to say a few words of fairness for Mr. Shan, you must not listen to what the young man said just now, their so-called circles are chaotic, I have been working here for so long, and I’ve never seen Mr. Shan bring any bad people back.”
Shen Yuhan’s spirit, which he had managed to raise with great difficulty, shriveled up again, he pretended to be unconcerned and said: “I know, Auntie, don’t worry, I won’t believe in anything that’s not reliable.”
Auntie Wang saw that his face was extremely pale, his measured demeanor, and she smiled: “This is the best wolfberry, it’s good for your health, I’ll make you another brew after you finish drinking.”
“Okay, Auntie, go and do your work.” He was also willing to believe Auntie, but he just thought that there were so many people out there who coveted his husband, and it was inevitable that he would feel a little sad, there were top student before, but now there were all kinds of little shous, little zeros, his position as a proper wife is in imminent danger3岌岌可危 (jí jí kě wēi): imminent danger (idiom); approaching a crisis; extremely dangerous; extremely precarious..
Being a wife to a modern man is so difficult.

After Andy left Shen Yuhan and Shan Qihuan’s home, as soon as he returned to the studio, he got a call from someone who asked him to meet at a coffee shop opposite the studio.
After Andy sat down, the other party asked him impatiently: “Have you done everything I told you?”
Andy was a bit impatient with him: “I don’t understand why you want me to tell Shen Yuhan this, just this once, the favor I owe you is considered to be paid off, Shan Qihuan is an old customer of mine, if this matter is known to him, my company will lose an important customer.”
The person sitting opposite him was none other than Shan Qiyun.
Shan Qiyun has been thinking about Shen Yuhan’s neither close nor distant4若即若離 (ruò jí ruò lí): lit. seeming neither close nor distant (idiom); fig. to keep one’s distance; to be neither friendly nor aloof; to maintain a lukewarm relationship; to be unclear; to be vague; keep sb at arm’s length; play fast and loose with sb. attitude towards him for the past two days, and now he has dark circles under his eyes: “Apart from him, I can introduce you to other customers.”
Andy said with a sullen face: “Shen Yuhan has nothing to do with you now, who will benefit from doing this? I think Shen Yuhan is a simple person, it’s not good for you to ruin the relationship between him and Shan Qihuan like this, after all, Shan Qihuan is your brother and Shen Yuhan is your sister-in-law.”
Shan Qiyun took a sip of bitter coffee to refresh himself, he frowned and said: “Shen Yuhan is a simple person? you must have made a mistake, just your eyes looking for men, it’s not good.”
Andy was exasperated with him, he stood up angrily and said: “Expose people but don’t reveal shortcomings5揭人不揭短 (jiē rén bù jiē duǎn): When criticizing others, don’t expose their shortcomings, but save some face for them; When blaming or criticizing others, try not to mention their shortcomings, otherwise it will cause unnecessary trouble., by the way, don’t drag me into this, I won’t get involved in the matters between your brothers.”
“Don’t worry, Shen Yuhan won’t doubt you, he doesn’t have that kind of brain.” Shan Qiyun said with assurance6胸有成竹 (xiōng yǒu chéng zhú): lit. to have grown an image of bamboo in one’s mind (when trying to draw a bamboo plant); to plan in advance (idiom); a card up one’s sleeve; forewarned is forearmed; a painter has the image of bamboo in his mind before he paints it—have a well-thought-out plan/stratagem; Originally refers to painting bamboo to have an image of bamboo in the heart; The latter metaphor has made up his mind before doing something., his somewhat haggard face full of confidence.
Since Shen Yuhan wants to use Shan Qihuan to attract his attention, then he will cut off the peace between him and Shan Qihuan, and see how Shan Qihuan can still protect him.
By doing so, he also put an end to the possibility of Shen Yuhan and Shan Qihuan being together in the future.
How could Shen Yuhan be attracted to Shan Qihuan, hat he liked was himself, so let him ‘see’ Shan Qihuan’s true face.
–
Shan Qihuan, who was far away in the United States, wrapped his coat tightly, the temperature here dropped faster than in their city.
These two days have been fulfilling and hurried, today’s negotiations went quite smoothly, maybe he can go home early to spend the weekend with Shen Yuhan.
There are not many pedestrians on the block at six o’clock, people in the United States basically don’t work overtime, if someone works overtime, the security guard may complain.
Assistant Qu asked Shan Qihuan if it was time to go to the luxury brand store they had reserved.
Shan Qihuan nodded, when he thought of Shen Yuhan, who was probably go to bed obediently right now, his tight jawline softened a lot: “Let’s go now.”
Half an hour later, they appeared in a luxury brand jewelry store in the busiest neighborhood.
The manager in a suit and tie warmly welcomed Shan Qihuan in, took him into the VIP room, and personally placed the latest jewelry product catalog in front of him for him to choose from.
An hour later, the manager bowed and see the big customer off.
Shan Qihuan returned with a full load with Assistant Qu in tow.
On the way back to the hotel, Assistant Qu kept thinking damn it in his heart, the boss spends such a large sum of money to buy luxury goods for who?
There are so many accessories that only girls like.
Did he touch the boss’s untouchable privacy?
It shouldn’t, it must be for the boss’s wife, when the boss’s wife came to the company on Monday, he was still wearing Cartier’s7卡地亞 (Kǎ dì yà): Cartier International SNC, or simply Cartier, is a French luxury-goods conglomerate that designs, manufactures, distributes, and sells jewellery, leather goods, and watches. Founded by Louis-François Cartier (1819–1904) in Paris in 1847, the company remained under family control until 1964. The company is headquartered in Paris and is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Swiss Richemont Group. latest bracelets and earrings, this was discovered by the company’s little girl through a secret photo taken in the cafeteria.
Among the jewelry he just bought, the price of a ring is no less than seven figures, which is really generous.
Being the boss’s wife is really good, he’s a bit envious.
When they arrived at the hotel, Shan Qihuan asked Assistant Qu: “What time will we arrive in Jiangcheng the day after tomorrow?”
Assistant Qu said: “It’s about ten o’clock in the morning, I’ll send you home around eleven o’clock.”
Shan Qihuan nodded: “Don’t go home first, just take me directly to where Shen Yuhan takes piano lessons.”
He don’t know what happened these two days, Shen Yuhan didn’t answer his video phone calls, or reply to his messages.
–
After staying at home for a few days, Shen Yuhan recovered from his cold, it happened to be Saturday when he went out to class.
He made an appointment there to keep the same time in the morning, and the driver took him to piano lessons, he learned music scores from Siri at home, when he came here today, the teacher taught him patiently for several times, and then he started practicing playing the piano.
He had a natural sense of music, and when he pressed his fingers on the keys, he understood them naturally, the teacher praised him for his musical talent.
After practicing all morning, Shen Yuhan’s fingers were a little sore, the teacher said that he could soak them in hot water when he got home to relieve the fatigue on his fingers.
He also had a dance class in the afternoon, which he missed last week, so he had to go this week.
When he walked out of the classroom, Shen Yuhan found that a scene similar to last week was happening in the rest area of the piano classroom, in the rest area, there was a charming man sitting with a bouquet of flowers in his hand, which attracted a lot of attention from the students who had come to the piano lesson.
Shen Yuhan only glanced over there casually, not knowing who the other person was, he was not interested in strange men.
However, when he walked out of the piano classroom, the man holding a bouquet of flowers in his hand went straight to Shen Yuhan, and the next moment, the other party stopped in front of him.
Shan Qiyun put on a gentle smile that he thought Shen Yuhan liked the most and said softly: “Yuhan.”
At the same time, low whispers came from the rest area, it turns out that this handsome guy is here to wait for this person, it seems that there were also handsome guys waiting for him last week, the market is really good.
Shen Yuhan, who was blocked, pursed his lips, took two steps back, and distanced himself from Shan Qiyun.
His action was as if he had seen something dirty, which made Shan Qiyun feel uncomfortable in his heart.
Shan Qiyun lowered his voice and said: “Let’s have a meal together.”
After Shen Yuhan distanced himself from him, he said: “Brother-in-law, it’s not appropriate.”
At the same time, Shen Yuhan looked past Shan Qiyun and saw a tall and travel-worn8風塵僕僕 (fēng chén pú pú): lit. covered in dust (idiom); fig. travel-worn; having endured the hardships of a long journey; be travel-stained/-soiled; be fatigued with travelling; look travel-worn and weary. figure standing not far outside the door.
His eyes suddenly lit up, Shan Qiyun thought he had changed his mind, but he only saw Shen Yuhan running out of the door past him.
Shen Yuhan trotted over, he wasn’t paying attention and almost stepped on a stone on the ground and fell down, fortunately, the man had long arms and legs, and easily caught him.
The man’s face was not very good at first, but when he saw Shen Yuhan coughing slightly because he trotted over, his tense face softened again, and he said in a deep voice: “What are you running for? You’re so careless.”
Shen Yuhan, who was hugged by Shan Qihuan, gently tugged on the edge of his coat on his chest, not caring about his own lack of restraint, his eyes sparkled and he couldn’t restrain his excitement: “You, how come you’re already back?”
His husband, who was supposed to be abroad on a business trip, is back!
