Regarding the hot search, Shan Qihuan knows that it is not that simple.
No matter how disgusting Shan Qiyun wanted to be, he would never do such a thing that would harm others and not benefit himself, he come back to pester Shen Yuhan because of his selfish motives, but he recently also want to become the son-in-law of the Qi family, and it was absolutely impossible for him to put himself on the hot search topic in this way.
He’s afraid the other party just want to take advantage of Shen Yuhan and Shan Qixin’s hot search today to stir up another wave, the main purpose is to make Shan Qiyun and Shan Qihuan look bad, while Shen Yuhan is just an incidental tool man.
In the past, Shan Qihuan didn’t bother to pay attention to the mutual deception between the three houses, his whole body will be stinky if he got involved with them, now it seems that they only reach for a yard after getting an inch1得寸進尺 (dé cùn jìn chǐ): lit. win an inch, want a foot (idiom); fig. not satisfied with small gains; to be extremely greedy; give them an inch and they’ll take a mile; reach for a yard after getting an inch; be insatiable., their main house has given them too much freedom.
Just as Shen Yuhan said to the Second Madam that day, what does the affair of the main house have to do with them?
If they want to make a fuss about Shen Yuhan’s past, they have to see if he agrees with it.
Shan Qihuan didn’t find someone to spend money to remove the hot search, if the hot search was removed, they would continue to be fired, there is no need to do so, it’s better to think about how to put the other three houses on the fire.
Shan Tianfeng may not mind if one or two of his sons’ relationship problems are on the hot search, but what if the other three invisible side houses are also on the hot search?
Having fun alone is not as good as having fun with others.
The person behind the scenes wanted to kill two birds with one stone2一箭雙鵰 (yī jiàn shuāng diāo): lit. one arrow, two golden eagles (idiom); to kill two birds with one stone; to do one task and finish two or more goals; shoot two hawks with one arrow., in addition to instigating the relationship between the main house and the third house, they could also benefit from it, in this case, don’t blame him for instigating the relationship between Shan Tianfeng and several mesdames, Shan Qihuan can now gain a foothold3立足之地 (lì zú zhī dì): standing room; have a foothold; a place to stand; place for sb in society; also a metaphor for a shelter. without relying on Shan Tianfeng, but those several houses may not be able to afford it, which one doesn’t take money from Shan Tianfeng that day? Without Shan Tianfeng, what can their three houses do, and how can they withstand the wind and waves?
They arrogantly4自以為是 (zì yǐ wéi shì): to believe oneself infallible (idiom); to be opinionated; to consider oneself in the right; to regard oneself as infallible; self-righteous; smug; From Xunzi (《荀子·榮辱》): 凡鬥者，必自以為是，而以人為非也。, Those prone to fights invariably consider themselves right and others wrong. thought the company under their name it is their own, but how many turbulence can it withstand? Don’t they know how many startup companies are dying in the waves, will Shan Tianfeng continue to support the three houses unconditionally?
In the past, Shan Qihuan would just sit and watch them play around, at least they didn’t touch his bottom line, but now this group of people are becoming more and more courageous, and they dare to act like Tai Sui5太歲 (Tài suì): (astronomy, astrology) the twelve or (later) sixty stars considered to oppose Jupiter during its roughly twelve year orbital cycle; (mythology, religion) the twelve or sixty gods personifying these stars and considered to control each year of the cycle, (particularly) the god of the current year; Taisui—name of a hypothetical planet which travels opposite to Jupiter. Ancient Chinese people took its period of revolution as reference to number years.; Taisui —God of the Year； local tyrant/bully; nickname for sb who is the most powerful in an area..
He moved his finger and sent an email, what you have is just superficial information, but what I have is news big enough to destroy a person.
The new week begins with entertainment at the Shan family home.
At nine o’clock in the morning, it was the past of love between Shan Qihuan’s newlywed lover, Shen Yuhan, and Shan Qiyun from the third house.
At half past nine in the morning, the it was exposed that Shan Qibai from the second house hanging around and having □□ with three women in daytime, not only that, his current college girlfriend, who had performed abortions for him eight times, claimed in a video that the Second Madam insulted her because she had too many abortions, and insulted her as a low-class breed, on the grounds that she would not be able to have children in the future, she said that she was not worthy of Shan Qibai, and she was determined not to let her stay together with Shan Qibai, nor to let her marry into the Shan family.
At ten o’clock in the morning, the fourth house, which have always prided themselves for keeping to itself6獨善其身 (dú shàn qí shēn): pay attention to one’s own moral uplift without thought of others; be righteous alone in a community where the general moral tone is low; maintain personal integrity; be concerned only for oneself; originally meant cultivating one’s moral character, preserving one’s own body, and not caring about worldly affairs. Nowadays, it mostly refers to caring only about oneself and not caring about others. It has a derogatory meaning., never getting involved in these things, and only talked about art with Shan Tianfeng and sent yoga photos every day, cannot hide either, a recent high-definition photo of a woman wearing heavy makeup at a nightclub appeared on the Internet, the most important thing was not her dress, but that she was leaning against a young, tall, and strong man with a muscular chest.
When these three hot searches came out, it simply shock all the people present!
It really amused netizens who eat melons7吃瓜 (chīguā): (literally) to eat melon or melon seed; (figuratively, neologism, slang) to be a mere bystander or onlooker. Derived from 吃瓜群眾 (chīguā qúnzhòng), (neologism, Internet slang, humorous, often used as self-address) onlookers (who are unaware of the situation); clueless commoners; peanut gallery., some entertainment reporters took the opportunity to fish in troubled waters8渾水摸魚 (hún shuǐ mō yú): to fish in troubled water (idiom); to take advantage of a crisis for personal gain; gain advantage in a confused situation., and started writing some specious9似是而非 (sì shì ér fēi): seemingly so, but not really; appears right, but in fact wrong; specious (idiom); seeming (to be) right/reasonable but not so in fact. gossip about the rich and powerful families, what’s more, it also dragged other rich and powerful families into the water10拉下了水 (lā xià le shuǐ): drag into the water―lure sb to commit a bad deed; drag sb into the mire; make an accomplice of sb; corrupt sb., in short, the rich and powerful families can be said to be as chaotic as they can be.
It is said that the rich and powerful families are complicated, but they didn’t expect it to be so complicated, the netizens don’t care who released these materials, they only focus on the gossip one after another.
After everything was done, no one cared about the trouble between Shan Qihuan, Shen Yuhan, and Shan Qiyun.
Originally, Shan Qiyun had never accepted Shen Yuhan, but now, Shen Yuhan has his own place to return to, using him as a springboard, treating his husband as a dead man?
Just dragged an innocent person down, tsk.
At the end of the morning, Shan Qihuan received countless WeChat messages and unanswered calls.
Shan Qihuan just glanced at it contemptuously, regretting it now, it’s too late.
Want to play, let’s play together, who is afraid of whom?
But who actually stabbed Shan Qihuan’s hornet’s nest?
This is simply jade and stone incinerated together11玉石俱焚 (yù shí jù fén): lit. jade and stone incinerated together; jade and stone were burned together—be destroyed indiscriminately (idiom); the good and the bad (or evil) perish together; From the chapter 胤征 of the Forged Old Text of Shangshu: 火炎崑岡，玉石俱焚。天吏逸德，烈于猛火。, When the fire blazes over the ridge of Kun, gems and stones are burned together; but if a minister of Heaven exceed in doing his duty, the consequences will be fiercer than blazing fire.!
At this time, Shen Yuhan, who didn’t know how to use Weibo, didn’t know that the frenzy news on the Internet today was caused by him.
He was looking forward to his husband’s return tomorrow.
However, his schedule today is also full.
He first used his mobile phone to check the current tea table styles, but he didn’t take a fancy to any of them.
He couldn’t help but think of the tea table he had used back then, the quality was quite good, he went back to his room and decided to paint to depict the tea table he had used before, if possible, he would ask his husband where he could order customized item.
Shen Yuhan originally only wanted to paint a tea table, but he thought it would be better to take advantage of the fact that he still remember all the things in Qi Kingdom, and depict all the familiar things he remembered from the past, and just treat it as a remembrance for himself.
At three o’clock in the afternoon, Shan Qihuan finished his business ahead of schedule, and sent a message to Shen Yuhan when he got in the car, asking him what he was doing at home.
Shen Yuhan put down his pen and replied with a voice: “Honey, I’m painting.”
Then Shan Qihuan sent a video call, Shen Yuhan thought he had something to do so he answered it.
“Honey, are you not busy anymore?”
“Um, I’m done for the day, I’m going back to the hotel to rest, what are you painting.”
“Just draw a picture of ancient life, just draw it casually.”
“Show me?”
Shen Yuhan switched the camera, last night, he looked up the common knowledge about the use of the camera, it turned out that he could switch the lens at will, today, he immediately started to implement what he had learned.
He asked Shan Qihuan: “Did you see it?”
Shan Qihuan has been very interested in Shen Yuhan’s paintings since he learned about his traditional Chinese painting skills, the last painting of a beauty with a cat is still hanging at home, of course, someone went to Shan Qihuan’s Weibo to ask about the whereabouts of this painting, but when he thought that the beauty in the painting had a red mole similar to Shen Yuhan’s on his collarbone, he preferred to collect the painting for himself.
“Yes, have you finished the painting?” Shan Qihuan saw Shen Yuhan’s painting through the camera, it was his own painting, and it had an inexplicable cuteness, just looking at it would make his fatigue swept clean away12一掃而空 (yī sǎo ér kōng): to sweep clean; to be swept clean away; to clean out; sweep clean all at once; clear off..
“It’s almost done, just wait for me to apply some colors.” What Shen Yuhan painted today is the courtyard where he lives, which is a leisurely scene in spring.
Shan Qihuan continued to admire his paintings through his mobile phone.
The people in the painting have begun to take shape, some are brightly dressed maidservants, and some are more ordinary maidservants, they have different expressions and are quite agile, each one of them appears vividly on the paper.
“After applying the color and signing the name, take a photo and send it to me.” Shan Qihuan told Shen Yuhan that he wanted to continue to publicize it for Shen Yuhan.
“Okay.” Shen Yuhan didn’t ask him what he needs the photo for, he just learned yesterday that he could use his mobile phone to take photos as a souvenir, he thought that his husband must have thought so too.
Since his husband called, Shen Yuhan decided to take a break, and it’s just right that he can ask him where he could order a tea table.
“Tea table?” Shan Qihuan said, “There should be one, let’s order one from a well-known store some other time, do you have other things you want, you need to order a desk or book shelf and so on for your study room.”
Shen Yuhan’s eyebrows rose slightly, and there was joy in his black and white eyes: “Can I? If so, then I’ll think about it carefully, I have a lot of things I want to order.”
If the current study room could be arranged like his previous one, it might really need a bookcase, bookshelf, qin stand, and so on, he can also set up a small collapsible bed to rest in, if his husband bullies him, he will sleep in the study!
He also likes modern bookshelves, but he seems to have no sense of belonging.
Shan Qihuan was not in a hurry: “You think about it first, when I get back, I’ll ask if there’s anyone suitable for custom-made furniture, and find a designer to discuss it.”
“Okay, Honey, you’re really good.” Shen Yuhan praised his husband without hesitation.
Shan Qihuan, who was a little uncomfortable being praised, coughed, he was still in the car heading to the hotel, there were assistants in the car, Assistant Qu and the other assistants looked down at their mobile phones, pretending not to hear anything.
Once again, it is verified that the deep love13伉儷情深 (kàng lì qíng shēn): married couple very much in love; deep conjugal love; deep love between husband and wife. between the boss and his wife are not fake!
The journey back to the hotel was not long, and Shan Qihuan asked about everything in great detail, he arrived at the hotel before he asked Shen Yuhan what he had for lunch.
When he got out of the car, he even introduced Shen Yuhan to the hotel he was staying at.
Shen Yuhan was interested in the hotel where he was staying: “Husband, let me see what the hotel looks like.”
“Have you never seen the world?” Shan Qihuan laughed at him but still pointed the camera at the hotel lobby.
“No.” Shen Yuhan told the truth, his eyes were very sincere, “Isn’t this to let my husband take me to help me gain experience.”
Shan Qihuan couldn’t do anything to him, he just thought Shen Yuhan was joking with him: “Does it look good?”
“It looks good, it looks richer than the palace.” The surprise in Shen Yuhan’s eyes couldn’t deceive anyone.
“You like it so much?” Shan Qihuan asked him as he walked, Assistant Qu helped to clear the way in front to prevent him from being bumped by others.
“I like it, I still have a lot of things I want to see, and I want to see the outside world.” Shen Yuhan’s beautiful eyes were filled with expectations and envy.
“Next time, I’ll take you to a better hotel, this one is average, the rooms are a bit old, but the location is not bad.” Shan Qihuan has stayed in many hotels, and this place is indeed average in his eyes.
“A gentleman must keep his promises14君子一言，駟馬難追 (jūn zǐ yī yán , sì mǎ nán zhuī): a nobleman’s word is his bond; a gentleman must keep his promises; a word spoken can never be taken back; what is said cannot be retracted; what is said can not be retracted; Based on passages in the Analects: 子貢曰：「惜乎！夫子之說君子也。駟不及舌。……」 子貢曰：「君子一言以為知，一言以為不知，言不可不慎也。……」, Zigong said: “How regrettable are your words about the superior person. A four-horse-team cannot overtake the tongue. […]” Zigong said: “The superior person, by speaking once, is taken as wise, by speaking once, is taken as unwise; one cannot afford to speak carelessly. […]”..” Shen Yuhan said happily.
“Okay, you even use idiom.” Shan Qihuan could feel his happiness. He has made up his mind, he would take the person with him next time he went on a business trip, so as not to leave the person at, home and wonder what might happen.
The next chapter will be posted tomorrow.
Also, before, I use ‘madams’ for plural noun of ‘madam’, and I just found out that ‘madams’ usually used for ‘women who run a brothel’. Anyway, while it’s considered correct, ‘madams’ have a derogatory connotation. And while ‘mesdames’ is actually a plural noun of ‘madame’, ‘madame’ is ‘a title used for a married Frenchwoman’, so I decided to use ‘madam’ for singular noun and ‘mesdames’ for plural noun. Former chapters has been corrected.
