Ch. 156..160: Callous Boss and Awkward Wife Chapter 156-160

Chapter 156: No longer Love Him

Yu Fei shook her head in panic. She was indeed afraid of Gu Yi's approach, but in the face of Gu Yi's question, she subconsciously chose to deny it.

Gu Yi did not take Yu Fei's denial to heart. The woman's small actions were enough to explain her thoughts. Gu Yi leaned forward and grabbed Yu Fei's arm. Without waiting for her reaction, he hit him hard on the face. Yu Fei was confused by Gu Yi's action. She glanced at her palm and then at the half of Gu Yi's face. He used a lot of strength and a red palm print.

Yu Fei pulled her hand back and questioned Gu Yi in disbelief, "What are you doing?"

Gu Yi lowered his head and looked down. He had lost his usual cool demeanor.

"I know you're still blaming me. Just hit me. If one slap isn't enough to relieve your anger, then slap me again until you're relieved." As he said this, Gu Yi grabbed Yu Fei's hand again, ready to continue hitting his face. Yu Fei struggled to pull her hand out and roared at Gu Yi, "Are you crazy?"

Gu Yi stopped all of his movements. He looked up at Yu Fei for two seconds and said something that surprised her, "You're pregnant now. The doctor said you can't get angry."

As soon as she said this, Yu Fei was amused by him. She smiled for a while before she stopped. This smile dispelled her anger. Yu Fei sighed and said to Gu Yi, "I'm not angry with you. You don't have to be like this anymore."

Gu Yi didn't believe it at all. He insisted on letting Yu Fei beat him a few more times to relieve her anger. When she saw how embarrassed Gu Yi was, Yu Fei really didn't know what to say. She diverted her attention away from Ke Chen and her low mood eased a lot.

After a stalemate for a long time, Yu Fei helplessly smiled and asked Gu Yi, "I made some soup. Do you want to stay for a drink?"

Yu Fei's words clearly showed that she was no longer angry. Gu Yi understood what she meant and stared at Yu Fei's face for a long time. After confirming that she was really thinking, he smiled and nodded. This was the first sincere smile Gu Yi showed ever since Yu Fei left his home.

Yu Fei asked Gu Yi to sit next to the dining table. She entered the kitchen and served Gu Yi a bowl. When she placed it in front of him, the bowl was still emitting hot air. The fragrance mixed in and spread in Gu Yi's nose. Yu Fei sat opposite Gu Yi. Seeing that there was nothing empty in front of her, Gu Yi asked strangely, "You don't drink?"

The woman shook her head and said with a faint expression, "I didn't make soup to drink, so I was just wasting time." Otherwise, I would always think about it. Even though Yu Fei did not say the last half of the sentence, Gu Yi also guessed a general idea.

Without saying anything more, Gu Yi buried his head and drank a bowl of hot soup. Yu Fei's soup was really good, and the fragrance was rich. After drinking, there was still the fragrance in her mouth.

Yu Fei looked at Gu Yi with her chin in her hands. Seeing that he had drunk the bowl, she asked if he wanted another bowl, Gu Yi quickly waved his hand to indicate that he didn't need it.

Because of this meal, the atmosphere eased a lot. After Gu Yi washed the dishes, he walked out of the kitchen and saw Yu Fei sitting on the sofa watching TV. She said she was watching TV, but in fact, her eyes had no focus at all.

Gu Yi walked over and found that the TV showed Ke Chen blocking the interview program. When he saw Yu Fei staring at Ke Chen on the screen, Gu Yi took the remote control in the woman's hand and turned off the TV without thinking. Yu Fei still didn't react. After a few seconds, she slowly opened her mouth. She seemed to be talking to Gu Yi, but she was also talking to herself, "So the person he likes has always been Tan Lin. It turns out that I've been pretending to be affectionate for so long."

Who is this 'he'?

Yu Fei's tone was low. Gu Yi sat down beside her, raised his hand and hesitated for a moment. He put it on Yu Fei's shoulder and comforted her, "Don't think too much."

Although Gu Yi said this on the surface, what he was thinking about was completely the opposite. He wished that Yu Fei would deliberately think more about it and hoped that Yu Fei would give up on Ke Chen because of this. Tears uncontrollably flowed down from the rims of her eyes and dripped onto the back of her hand. Yu Fei felt the cold drop before she lowered her head. She raised her hand and wiped it on her face, only to realize that she was crying. The emotions that had been enduring for two days finally exploded at this moment.

"Since the person he has always liked is her, then what am I? What am I worth all these years?" Yu Fei buried her face in her hands and cried out loud. She didn't say her name but it was obvious who "he" and "she" were.

Yu Fei cried for a long time before she slowly stopped. She looked at Gu Yi with red eyes, as if she had treated him as Ke Chen, and questioned him desperately, "Have you been treating me as her substitute all these years? Tell me, right?" Although Gu Yi wanted Yu Fei to give up on Ke Chen, he still felt a little distressed when he saw her like this. Just as he was about to comfort her, Yu Fei relaxed and mumbled, "I love you so much. How can you treat me like this? How can you lie to me..."

Hearing Yu Fei's words clearly, Gu Yi held back the comforting words and said to Yu Fei, "It's right, I've never loved you. The person I love has always been Yu Fei. She's the only one I love."

Gu Yi's words stopped Yu Fei from crying. She sat there motionlessly like she had been pressed on the pause button.

Gu Yi looked at Yu Fei with concern. He pretended to be Ke Chen and spoke just now, so that Yu Fei would be discouraged. According to the current reaction of Khai, he had already half succeeded.

Yu Fei didn't continue crying. She raised her face and silently wiped away the tears on her face. She looked straight at Gu Yi. To be precise, it was more like she was looking at another person through him. "I love you and I don't love you anymore."

Yu Fei's voice didn't fluctuate at all. It sounded like an emotionless robot, but only she knew how difficult and heartache it it was to say this.

Gu Yi held Yu Fei in his arms. Yu Fei was like a clever doll and did not make any resistance. Gu Yi gently patted Yu Fei's back and comforted her softly, "It's okay. It's over, it's over."

Unlike what he said, Gu Yi had a smile of success on his face.

Chapter 157: Decision

Gu Yi stayed at Yu Fei's house until nightfall before leaving. In fact, he originally wanted to stay for some reason to be worried. However, seeing that Yu Fei did not seem to have any intention of doing so, he gave up.

After Gu Yi left, Yu Fei lay on the bed and couldn't sleep anymore. She forced herself to close her eyes, but she always thought about Ke Chen unconsciously.

Yu Fei opened her eyes and couldn't help but hit her arm. She smiled bitterly. Yu Fei, why are you so untalented? You clearly decided not to love him, but you still couldn't help thinking about him in your mind.

Yu Fei took out her computer and entered Ke Chen and Tan Lin's names in a column. She stared at the two names and let out a long sigh of relief. She made up her mind to press the car button, and all kinds of reports about them jumped out. Clicking open one by one, Yu Fei watched it without missing anything. She read all the photos and videos.

Looking at these ironclad evidence, Yu Fei's heart was full of wounds and blood. Her expression was numb and she clicked the mouse mechanically for an hour.

The computer screen shone in the darkness and reflected on Yu Fei's pale face. Her lips were pale and almost integrated with her cheeks.

Yu Fei let go of the mouse and raised her hand to touch the position of her abdomen.

"Darling, is Mommy's choice wrong?" Yu Fei muttered to herself.

Back then, she had insisted on leaving the child in front of Ke Chen. The child was the only obstacle between her and Ke Chen, so she didn't want to be able to protect a child. But now Yu Fei hesitated. Even if she gave birth to the child in the future, she would never have a father in her life. She didn't know if she would blame her when the child grew up.

After thinking about a lot of things, Yu Fei fell asleep in a daze. The computer slipped to one side and the photo of Ke Chen and Tan Lin appeared on the computer screen. It seemed like Ke Chen had sent Khai to work. The woman's smile was like flowers. Ke Chen's eyes stared at the woman and the corners of her mouth curved into a small arc.

The night was filled with more than one Yu Fei who couldn't sleep at night.

The huge Ke's Manor was silent. The garden lanterns shone on the light light, making it look a little cold. Every room had been turned off and slept, leaving only the study room still on.

Ke Chen was reading documents in the study room. He was used to working at night, so it was easier to concentrate when it was quiet, but today he couldn't calm down.

Ke Chen put down the folder, picked up his phone, unlocked the screen, and stayed on the text message page.

"Mr. Gu has left Yu Fei's house."

The message was sent at 823. Ke Chen turned to look at the current time. It happened to be 23:00 pm. After five hours, he still couldn't let go.

Every time he sent his subordinates to protect Yu Fei's safety to send messages related to Gu Yi, Ke Chen felt very upset. At this time, the feeling of helplessness was heavier than ever.

The online scandal about him and Tan Lin had long been spread everywhere. Although he didn't look at it deliberately, he knew about it from the secretary and Duan Qingfeng.

Tan Lin was different from Yu Fei. She had a huge family behind her, and she was the president of Lin Xiu. There were ten strong women who could solve any danger.

Ke Chen knew that Yu's calculation of Yu Fei had not completely disappeared. This was not something that could be solved simply by letting them live in Ke's Manor.

The greed in Yu's eyes was too obvious. Ke Chen knew that as long as he didn't marry her, Yu would treat her as a thorn in the chair.

Yu Fei was kind in her heart and wouldn't do anything to her family, so Tan Lin was different. She had no relationship with Kafa, and with her personality of not losing money, she would never be soft on Yao 4.

This was why Ke Chen transferred the target from Yu Fei to Tan Lin.

Other than Duan Qingfeng and Uncle Zhang, no one knew his purpose.

The sky was getting brighter. Ke Chen stood up and walked to the bed, hugged his arms and looked up at the sky. A new day was coming, and his life would be less than one day. Ke Chen couldn't slow down the flow of time, so he could only passively accept it.

At nine in the morning, at Ke's Corp Building.

Ke Chen called the secretary to the office and instructed her, "Get me out of my afternoon time and invite the media to hold a press conference."

The secretary didn't react for a moment. There was no new case in Ke Empire recently, so there was no news conference. Surprise flashed across her face and she accurately caught Ke Chen's eyes.

Ke Chen explained without any expression, "Together with Tan Lin."

As soon as he said this, the secretary immediately understood. This was not a press conference. It was obviously a public meeting with private feelings. Although he already knew about Ke Chen's attitude, the secretary still needed to confirm it, "M. Ke, are you going to announce your relationship with Miss Tan?"

Ke Chen looked at the secretary with a hint of coldness in his eyes, which frightened the secretary and immediately fell silent.

She didn't know what she said wrong, so she lowered her head in fear, not daring to say anything else.

"Yes." Ke Chen answered affirmatively from above. The secretary looked up in surprise. There was no trace of joy on Ke Chen's face. He didn't look like someone who was immersed in sweet love at all.

The secretary found it more strange, but he didn't dare to guess his boss's thoughts. He walked out of the office to arrange for the afternoon's related matters.

After the secretary left, Ke Chen called Tan Lin and told Tan Lin what he was going to say to the public. He was not worried about whether Cairn would agree.

The truth was exactly the same as he expected. Tan Lin didn't hesitate at all, but she didn't believe it. "Of course I won't object, but Brother Chen, you're not joking with me, right?"

Tan Lin's tone was relaxed, but the expression on her face was not relaxed at all. Her left hand was tightly clenched into a fist and the veins on the back of her hand were obvious.

Before this, Ke Chen had never explicitly mentioned emotional issues, including the last time he had seduced him in Ke Family, and he had unexpectedly met with Waterloo.

Because of this, she intended to create a small misunderstanding on the show, and find someone to write a press release to spread the scandal between her and Ke Chen. Tan Lin's intention was to test Ke Chen, but the result of this probing surprised her.

All of a sudden, he accepted her.

After the scandal spread, Ke Chen did not make a clear statement. Tan Lin was still a little nervous. The arrival of this press conference completely dispelled her uneasiness.

"Of course I'm not kidding."

Ke Chen's low voice came from the microphone, as elegant as the sound of the piano. Every word bloomed on Tan Lin's heart.

Chapter 158: Open Their Love

On the eve of the press conference, Ke Chen went to the lounge to find Tan Lin.

Tan Lin was sitting in her seat with her eyes closed. She seemed to have fallen asleep and Ke Chen didn't open her eyes after coming in.

When her secretary saw Ke Chen, she subconsciously wanted to wake Tan Lin up. Ke Chen stopped her and asked her to go out first. Only Ke Chen and Tan Lin were left in the lounge. Ke Chen took a seat beside Tan Lin and stared at her face without blinking.

Tan Lin seemed to have restrained all her sharpness at this time. She looked no different from an ordinary woman. However, Ke Chen knew that all this was just an illusion. Tan Lin was definitely not a character to deal with.

The woman's eyelashes trembled twice as if a butterfly was about to spread its wings. Her eyes twirled and she suddenly opened her eyes, just in time to meet Ke Chen's gaze.

Tan Lin sat up straight and looked at both sides. She saw that she and Ke Chen were the only two of them and asked, "Why are you here?"

Ke Chen didn't answer the woman's question. He raised his hand and tidied up Tan Lin's long hair. He gently helped her to the back of her ear and asked with concern, "Did you rest well last night?"

Although there was a cosmetics cover, Ke Chen still saw two groups of green and black under Tan Lin's eyes.

"I read the document a little late." Tan Lin shrugged helplessly and leaned over to Ke Chen and said naughtily, "Why do you care so much about me today?"

"Isn't it normal to care about your girlfriend?" Ke Chen asked lightly. His tone was so natural that Tan Lin couldn't immediately react to what he said.

After two whole seconds, Tan Lin finally reacted and stared at Ke Chen with wide eyes. Her usual calmness and decisiveness disappeared completely at this moment.

"What did you just say?"

Ke Chen didn't answer her. He stood up from his seat and turned to walk towards the door. It seemed like he was not going to answer her. Tan Lin bit her lip unwillingly, and hurriedly jumped to catch up with Ke Chen. She grabbed his wrist and asked, "What did you just say?"

There was an imperceptible smile on the corner of Ke Chen's mouth. He stared at Tan Lin's eyes for two seconds before repeating the sentence word by word, "I just said that it's normal to care about my girlfriend."

"Your girlfriend, me?" Tan Lin's fingers pointed to herself and confirmed to Ke Chen.

Ke Chen didn't say anything. He nodded at her and removed the woman's hand from his wrist. "I'll go and see if there's anything unprepared. It'll be half an hour before you start. You have a rest."

Until Ke Chen walked out, Tan Lin was still stunned by the shock brought by the man.

Girlfriend, Ke Chen just said that she was his girlfriend. Tan Lin stood there in a daze for a long time and laughed foolishly.

Unlike Tan Lin's good mood in the lounge, the smile on Ke Chen's face disappeared the moment he walked out of the lounge. He turned his head and looked at the closed door on the rest, his eyes cold.

He had just treated Tan Lin as Yu Fei, so he could naturally say those words. Ke Chen didn't know if Kalan had noticed any flaws, but it seemed like there was nothing.

Everything was progressing according to his expectations.

The press conference was held on time half a child. Ke Chen and Tan Lin sat on the stage while Ke Chen's secretary was on the left. She was the host of today's press conference and Tan Lin's assistant was sitting on the right. The audience was full of reporters. Everyone stared at the two people on stage, eager to ask questions.

The secretary gave a brief introduction and jumped directly to the questions and answer session of the reporters, which was what Ke Chen meant.

"M. Ke, when did you confirm your relationship with President Tan?" The reporters came prepared and asked the most concerned questions.

Ke Chen subconsciously glanced at Tan Lin, and the camera below the stage emitted a series of crackling sounds.

"We met each other when we were young," Ke Chen turned his head and answered the reporter's question. "If you really say that we have a relationship, Tan Lin will return soon. We determined our relationship after she returned." The reporter seemed to think that Ke Chen didn't answer enough. Just as he was about to continue asking, another female reporter interrupted him, "I'd like to ask Miss Tan, did you accidentally reveal the name of M. Ke in the interview show or did you deliberately do it?"

The female reporter's question was very sharp. Tan Lin had expected them to ask these questions early in the morning. She was ready and replied calmly, "I was really careless that time. I didn't expect everyone to be so sensitive. All of them are Detectives, so I gave all my deductions."

Tan Lin's tone was relaxed and helpless, which made all the reporters laugh. The tip of the pen moved quickly and recorded it.

"Then what did M. Ke think after getting such a high level of attention because of his relationship?"

Ke Chen paused for two seconds when he asked this question. He looked like he was thinking about how to answer.

"I really didn't expect everyone to pay so much attention to us. I thought that only celebrities would receive such treatment," Ke Chen said with a smile, "but it is precisely because of this that I want to use this opportunity today to explain everything to everyone."

Ke Chen looked serious, making people believe what he said.

The press conference went even smoother than the secretary had imagined. No matter what questions the reporters asked, Ke Chen and Tan Lin could answer them very well. The two of them sat together and it was a beautiful scene of a man and a woman.

About an hour later, the press conference finally ended. Ke Chen and Tan Lin stepped down and returned to the lounge together, followed by their secretary and assistant.

As soon as Tan Lin walked into the lounge, she trotted to the sofa and sat down. She collapsed and complained like a little girl, "This is more tiring than me talking about cooperation."

Ke Chen stood in front of her and Tan Lin sat up straight.

Seeing her action, the smile on Ke Chen's face became stronger. Tan Lin rarely saw Ke Chen smile like this. Her face was burning red and she uncomfortably avoided his sight and dared not look at Ke Chen again.

"A friend of mine has opened a new Japanese restaurant to have a taste?"

When Ke Chen said this, Tan Lin really felt a little hungry. She nodded at Ke Chen like a small animal. Ke Chen looked at her in a daze for a moment, as if he saw Tan Lin.

Once upon a time, Yu Fei would always stick to his side like a sticky kitten.

Chapter 159: An Unable Love

Seeing that Ke Chen was in a daze, Tan Lin called him, her eyes confused.

Ke Chen came back to his senses and didn't give any explanation. He nodded at Tan Lin, "Let's go?"

The two of them asked the secretary and assistant to go back first. The driver drove Ke Chen and Tan Lin to the restaurant.

From outside the door, there was nothing special about the store. Ke Chen walked in with Tan Lin, which was when Tan Lin realized that the decoration style in the store was a Japanese style. Although it was simple, the feeling of the Japanese style was really strong.

Business in the store was good. Basically, there was no empty table. Tan Lin turned her head and glanced at Ke Chen, her eyes filled with unconcealable surprise.

A chubby man walked up to them and Ke Chen patted the man's shoulder with a sincere smile. "Old Cui, long time no see."

Tan Lin watched from the side and instantly realized that Old Cui was the friend Ke Chen had mentioned before.

Ke Chen introduced Tan Lin to Old Cui, "This is Tan Lin, my girlfriend."

Tan Lin smiled at Old Chui and Ke Chen continued to introduce her, "This is Old Chui."

Old Cui smirked and knocked on Ke Chen's shoulder. He said with a smile, "You're fine, kid. You brought a girlfriend over without making a sound, so you don't have any mental preparation." Alright, come in. I left the room for the two of you early in the morning.

From the corner of her eye, Tan Lin glanced at the man beside her from time to time. Until now, she felt like she was dreaming. She somehow became Ke Chen's girlfriend. It felt like she was floating in mid-air, her feet couldn't step on the ground, but she was full of happiness.

Tan Lin enjoyed happiness in the restaurant, but she didn't know that her name had been cursed thousands of times.

The video of the afternoon press conference was quickly posted online. Yu Yu saw it almost immediately. She watched Tan Lin's happy smile from time to time in the video, so she hated her teeth. She wished she could get into the screen and tear the woman's face apart.

Yu Yu didn't expect Ke Chen to admit that Tan Lin was his girlfriend, which was practically a thunder from a clear sky for her.

Previously, she thought that it was already a sure thing to take Ke Chen down after living in Ke Family. Who would have thought that Cheng Xi would jump out halfway and bite gold? Yu's eyes were gloomy and she immediately called Wang Feng. After hearing her say a general idea, Wang Feng was in no mood to stay in the company and hurriedly rushed back from Yu's Group.

Wang Feng said as she walked in, "What's going on? Why did Ke Chen suddenly admit that Tan Lin is his girlfriend and use this way to develop a cloth?"

"How do I know?" Yu Yu lowered her head and answered Wang Feng.

Wang Feng glanced at Yu Yu. How could Ka not know what she was thinking? He walked over and rubbed the back of her head, comforting her, "What's the big deal? They're not married. You still have a chance. Don't be so depressed." "Mom," Yu Yu dragged her voice and cried, "I can't beat her. Do you see how the media wrote Tan Lin?" She had a prominent family background and was capable of herself. How could I compare to her?

When Wang Feng heard this, she heavily patted Yu Yu's head. "What are you saying? The war hasn't started yet. How about you increase others 'prestige and destroy your momentum."

Yu Yu raised her head with red eyes and looked at Wang Feng. "Mother, I really don't know what to do..."

"Isn't there Yu Fei? As long as the little guy in Yu Fei's womb is still there, we have a way to deal with Khai." Wang Feng smiled coldly, her eyes shining with calculations.

Yu Yu didn't understand her words and frowned slightly. "That's Yu Fei's child, not my child. How can she help us?"

"My silly daughter," Wang Feng looked at Yu Yu and shook her head. "Have you forgotten what I told you before?"

Wang Feng told Yu about the plan, but after hearing this, she was still a little uncertain. She tilted her head and said in an uncertain tone, "Although that is the case, how can we let Luo 4 be wary of Yu Jie and draw them into a fight?" As soon as Yu Yu said this, a flash of light flashed in her mind and she instantly understood.

Wang Feng and Yu Yu laughed smugly together. The dark clouds of conspiracy enveloped Khai's head early, but she herself had no idea.

Yu Fei hadn't had time to watch the online video. Today was the day she went to the hospital for a physical examination. Gu Yi had already asked the driver to drive the car to her house and accompany her.

Yu Fei hadn't slept well last night and her mental state hadn't been very good. She almost fell asleep in the car. Seeing her like this, Gu Yi couldn't help but feel a little distressed, but on the other hand, he could faintly guess the reason and his mood was not so beautiful.

As soon as he thought that Yu Fei was like this because of Ke Chen, Gu Yi felt a little upset.

Thankfully, the results of the inspection were not bad. Everything was normal.

The doctor told Yu Fei in detail, "Although the baby's current situation is not bad, you must not be careless. You must rest well and ensure that the nutrition will follow, so that the baby can absorb nutrients better."

Yu Fei nodded, and Gu Yi listened to the doctor's instructions. He didn't want the doctor to turn his words around and immediately turned to Gu Yi, "Also, in addition to accompanying the pregnant woman, the child's father should be able to massage the pregnant woman every day. Although pregnant women don't show any signs of swollen, it's best to be careful."

Seeing that the doctor had mistaken Gu Yi as the child's father, Yu Fei was so embarrassed that she didn't know what to do. She wanted to explain, but she didn't know how to explain.

Yu Fei looked at Gu Yi with complicated eyes. Considering that the doctor was still in front of her, she did not say anything.

After walking out of the hospital, Yu Fei hesitated for a moment, but she couldn't help but ask, "Why didn't you deny it just now? You shouldn't have done those things."

For Gu Yi, the word 'complicated' wasn't enough to describe Yu Fei's feelings for him. Yu Fei wanted to reject Gu Yi's kindness to her more than once and wanted the man to give up on her, but when she encountered things, Gu Yi appeared again and again.

Gu Yi saw through Yu Fei's thoughts at a glance, and the corners of his mouth were gentle. His tone seemed to be indifferent, "I told you before that I will treat this child as my child."

"But you don't have to do that at all!" Yu Fei interrupted him. The more Gu Yi did, the more she felt guilty.

Yu Fei couldn't afford what Gu Yi wanted.

Chapter 160: Shooting in the Dark

How could Gu Yi not notice Yu Fei's predicament, so he pretended to ignore the topic. He got into the car with Yu Fei and took her to a famous restaurant.

The bodyguard quietly followed Gu Yi's car, took a few photos quickly and edited them to send them to Ke Chen.

Feeling the vibrations in his pocket, Ke Chen's expression didn't change. He calmly took out his phone and glanced at the message, then put it down like nothing had happened.

Tan Lin, who was sitting opposite him, noticed Ke Chen's small movements. She picked up a piece of sushi and put it in the man's plate and asked, "Is there anything?"

Ke Chen shook his head calmly and put the sauce-soaked sushi into his mouth.

From the information sent by the bodyguard, there should be no big problem with Yu Fei's checkup this time, so Ke Chen relaxed a little.

He had just admitted his relationship with Tan Lin's lover, so he would definitely attract more media and even paparazzi. In this special period of time, he could not sneak a peek at Yu Fei. If he was discovered, everything he had prepared would be ruined.

Tan Lin was eating on the surface, but she had been quietly observing Ke Chen's reaction. She didn't know if she was overhearted or something, but she always felt that Ke Chen had been not quite right recently.

To be precise, it started from the scandal between the two of them.

Sensing the burning gaze from the opposite side, Ke Chen quietly looked back. Tan Lin stared at the man's gaze for a second, then she embarrassedly avoided her sight and lowered her head to pretend to be focused on eating.

It wasn't that Ke Chen didn't see the suspicion in Tan Lin's eyes. When he came up with this plan, he had already thought of all the reactions Tan Lin would have. At the same time, all of them had come up with a solution. However, Tan Lin did not say anything as Ke Chen thought. She didn't ask anything.

The atmosphere became awkward for some reason. Ke Chen and Tan Lin chose to remain silent at the same time. The air was so quiet that people were flustered.

After eating without hesitation, the two of them walked out of the restaurant. When they arrived, the sky was still bright and it was now completely dark.

The sky was like a huge black curtain, blocking all the light.

The driver was waiting at the door. Ke Chen was very gentlemanly as he opened the door for Tan Lin and made a gesture of "Please", "Miss Tan, please get in."

Before he could finish his sentence, he suddenly felt a flash flashing in the dark. Ke Chen turned his head and saw the bushes behind the street lamp tremble slightly.

Ke Chen's eyes were sharp and he gestured at the driver. The driver understood, got out of the car and grabbed the guy who was secretly taking photos behind the bushes and threw it in front of Ke Chen.

The driver grabbed the man's camera and delivered it to Ke Chen.

Ke Chen casually flipped through it. It was filled with photos of him and Tan Lin. Some of them looked ambiguous because of the angle and light.

The person who was secretly taking photos lay in front of Ke Chen, not daring to raise his head. There was almost no gap between them and the ground.

Tan Lin walked to Ke Chen's side, took the camera and glanced at it.

"Puppy?"

Tan Lin mercilessly threw the camera in front of the person. Her strength wasn't light, and the camera was instantly smashed into pieces.

Ke Chen glanced at Tan Lin without revealing any traces. The other person didn't notice it. His eyes stared at the back of the person's head on the ground. She didn't know if it was because of the light, Tan Lin's facial muscles were tight as if she was enduring something.

The person lying on the ground didn't react at all. Even though Tan Lin's tone could faintly hear some anger, he still didn't move.

The paparazzi seemed to be different from what he thought. Ke Chen felt strange but he didn't say anything. He looked at him more and more, as if he wanted to see through him.

Without an answer, the light in Tan Lin's eyes flashed for a moment. She took out a few red notes from her wallet, threw them to the ground and scattered around.

"Get the money back and tell your boss, don't think about me and Ke Chen anymore."

The man lowered his head and hurriedly picked up all the money scattered around him. He ran away in a panic without saying a word.

After his silhouette disappeared completely, Tan Lin withdrew her gaze. She didn't want to meet Ke Chen's inquisitive gaze as soon as she turned around. Her heart thumped and she pretended to be calm and smiled. "Why are you looking at me like that?"

Ke Chen's eyes were deep, and his dark pupils blocked all emotions, making it impossible for people to see what he was thinking.

"Nothing."

After staring at Tan Lin for a few minutes, Ke Chen suddenly smiled and answered indifferently, as if the person who had been looking into him was not him.

Tan Lin stared at him but couldn't see through it. She tilted her head and jumped over the topic to ask, "Send me back?"

"Get in the car." Ke Chen naturally took the words and didn't bother with the paparazzi anymore.

On the way, Ke Chen and Tan Lin did not speak again. Tan Lin held her chin and looked out of the car window. Ke Chen put the computer on his lap and checked the latest report. His eyes were fully seen by the woman beside him, and his intuition told him that the "paparazzi" who had appeared out of nowhere could not be extricated from Han.

"Thank you for sending me back." Tan Lin smiled sweetly at Ke Chen.

Ke Chen sat in the car with a cold expression, but his words were not cold at all, "I'll pick you up tomorrow?"

"No need." Tan Lin rejected without thinking about it. The speed at which she was so fast made Ke Chen a little surprised.

Seeing the change in the man's expression, Tan Lin also noticed that her reaction seemed to be too extreme. She paused for a moment to explain, but Ke Chen answered before her. "Okay."

It was Ke Chen's succinct answer that couldn't be heard.

Watching Ke Chen's car go far away, Tan Lin turned around and walked into the house.

She threw her bag aside, but she still thought about the paparazzi. The more she thought about it, the angrier she got. She couldn't help but call the number she hadn't called for a long time. The phone was picked up after two rings.

Tan Lin walked to the floor-to-ceiling window and reflected her dazed figure. Her beautiful face revealed a different ferocity.

"What do you want to do?"

Tan Lin's question made the man laugh. He pretended to be confused and asked, "What are you talking about? How can I not understand?"

The tone of the flowing air makes people feel angry. Tan Lin is so angry that she almost can't suppress the anger in her heart.

"Don't play dumb with me. Why did you find someone to secretly picture me?"
