Xiang Nuan pursed his lips, not daring to scold him.
Other guests came, and Xie Yuan said sorry and got up to greet others.
When Shen Yanshi was fed up with the noise of the banquet hall, he got up and went to the small balcony outside.
Xiang Nuan thought for a while and followed him out: "Why is Mr. Shen so free to come?"
"I'll come naturally when I have time."
This was the case when Shen Yan was in charge. He was impeccable in everything he said and did. No matter how much you asked about things he didn't want to reveal, it would be in vain.
Xiang Nuan raised his lips and smiled softly: "You can't be here just for me, right?"
Shen Yanshi narrowed his eyes and looked at her: "What if it is?"
Xiang Nuan was startled.
"You don't plan to renew your contract with Xingyue?"
"yes."
"I heard from Wu Shengkai that Zheng Xuanlin still wants to resign and take you with her, but she has a non-compete agreement and cannot leave."
"Mr. Shen is still interested in these little things?"
"I can ask Zheng Xuanlin to come out of Xingyue and take you alone."
Xiang Nuan looked back at him in surprise.
She asked warily: "Does Mr. Shen have any conditions?"
Shen Yanshi was silent for a moment, and finally spoke: "Stop losing your temper."
He lowered his eyebrows and spoke to her patiently: "I didn't think carefully about what happened before. It won't happen again in the future. Everything that needs to be dealt with has been dealt with. Whether you want to leave Xingyue or take Zheng Xuanlin away, I will It’s all up to you.”
Xiang Nuan was stunned for a moment.
The first time she saw Shen Yan in her life, she lowered her head to coax him.
The prince, who was always aloof, never had to bow his head, especially to someone like her.
She raised her lips, met his gaze, and her smile faded a little: "Mr. Shen, you know, I never lose my temper."
Today she was wearing a little black dress with diamonds that reached her knees, and her hair was tied low. She was not ostentatious and a little gentle, but she looked at him with a smile, without any warmth in her eyes.
"Thanks to Mr. Shen for being so considerate, I can ignore the past grudges, but people like me really shouldn't reach high."
She smiled: "Thank you, Mr. Shen, for coming to support me today."
After she finished speaking, she didn't stay any longer, turned around and walked out of the small balcony.
His eyes darkened as he watched the feast.
When Xiang Nuan walked out of the small balcony, he was caught off guard and saw Qin An.
He also happened to be looking at her. His father was talking to Xie Yuan in a flattering way.
Qin An was about to come over, but Xiang Nuan looked away and walked towards Xie Wanhua.
"Mrs. Xie, I'm sorry, I have to leave first."
She came here today just to make Xie Feifei's dream come true. Now Xie Feifei had gone back to the room crying due to Shen Yanshi, so there was no need for her to stay any longer.
Xie Wanhua smiled and said: "Okay, you go ahead. Thank you for coming today. Feifei is very happy to see you."
Xiang Nuan smiled politely: "You're welcome."
After a few more pleasantries, Xiang Nuan left first.
When Qin An saw her leaving, he immediately chased her out on the pretext of having something to do.
Shen Yanshi walked out of the small balcony with a gloomy look on his face.
Tomorrow Lang came over with a playful smile: "What's going on? Why did he leave? Didn't he coax him well?"
"roll."
"Hey, you said you are so virtuous, how can I be as good at coaxing women? But I really didn't see it, how can you be so interested in this little star?"
Shen Yanshi picked up the wine glass and took a sip, his eyes dark and unclear.
Are you interested?
That's right.
At first, I picked Xiang Nuan just on a whim, but later I felt that she was not worried about her appetite, so I kept one song.
But I don’t know since when, he couldn’t quit.
"I thought Xiaonian was back and you still had some lingering feelings for her. It seems like there's really no chance for you two."
"It's none of her business."
"You don't care. Of course Xiaonian does. Hey, forget it. Anyway, you have made trouble for Shen Jun now. Now your position in the Shen family is more stable. What does it mean to be a mere woman?"
-
"Nuan Nuan!"
Qin An ran all the way and caught up with her in the hall.
"What's up?"
"I've just arrived and you're leaving. Are you avoiding me on purpose?"
Xiang Nuan was silent.
"Nuan Nuan, I know you don't want to believe anything I say now, but I just want to tell you that I have never changed. I have not changed since I met you when I was seventeen."
Qin An's eyes turned red: "I have grown up and can protect you."
Xiang Nuan felt a pang in his heart and tugged at the corners of his lips: "Qin An, I have grown up and I don't need those anymore."
"No, just give me a little more time, I promise you, I will definitely..."
Someone happened to come out, and Xiang Nuan quickly distanced himself. They were in the lobby. If they were a little intimate, they would be afraid of being photographed. No one dared to photograph them inside the banquet hall, but outside they were allowed.
Qin An didn't want to cause trouble for her, so he took a step back silently.
"Nuan Nuan, then you should go back early. What I say must be true."
After Qin An finished speaking, he turned around and went back to the banquet hall without waiting for her answer.
Xiang Nuan lowered his eyes and walked out casually.
It's really strange that the person she liked so much in the past, the person who tried his best to keep him, now stands in front of her again and tells her that he wants to try his best to give her a future, but there is no wave in her heart.
The price of growth is numbness.
In the past, I had many naive delusions, I dared to do anything, and never flinched from anything. Now I dare not think about anything, and I don’t want to believe anything.

In the banquet hall, Qin Zhanghui raised his wine glass and bent over to toast Shen Yanshi: "It's rare for Mr. Shen to be here. I'd like to toast Mr. Shen."
Xie Yuan introduced: "The Qin family lived in Lincheng in their early years. Later they engaged in international trade and developed in Australia. They recently returned to China."
Lincheng?
Shen Yanshi rarely raised his eyelids and took a look at him.
Just as Qin An came back, Qin Zhanghui quickly waved him over: "Qin An, come here!"
Hearing this familiar name, Shen Yanshi's hand holding the wine glass tightened suddenly, and his sharp eyes swept towards the visitor.
