Chapter 494 I’d Like You to Dedicate Yourself to Me (2)

Shen Yuechuan continued with a mysterious tone, “Xu Youning interrupted me before I could ask her about the text message, but she just sounded as if she were talking to herself. She said that she didn’t regret her choice; she also said that Yicheng and Jianan are not so important to her. “At that time, two of Kang Ruicheng’s men were standing behind her. She looked as if she was afraid that they would know that she had sent me a text message.”

Lu Boyan said, “She shouldn’t have been afraid if she sent us the text message because Kang Ruicheng asked her to do it.”

“You got it.” Shen Yuechuan snapped his fingers, looking at Lu Boyan with his eyes lighting up. “So, you guessed it!”

Lu Boyan had told Shen Yuechuan the previous night that Kang Ruicheng’s unlimited bidding strategy would likely be a trap.

The trap was set to test Xu Youning.

If Xu Youning wanted to go back to him sincerely, she would never tell Lu Boyan about his unlimited bidding strategy. In that case, Shen Yuechuan wouldn’t keep bidding against the Su Group.

If Xu Youning returned to him to work undercover, she would seize the opportunity to take her revenge, and she would tell Lu Boyan about it as soon as she could. As a result, Shen Yuechuan would keep bidding against the Su Group, thus forcing it to be the highest bidder.

However, Kang Ruicheng asked Xu Youning to stop bidding when it reached the upper limit of Lu Enterprises before the auction.

In that case, Kang Ruicheng would successfully take advantage of Xu Youning, whether she was a double agent or not. He would be able to let Lu Enterprises win the auction at the highest price and confirm Xu Youning’s identity at the same time.

However, Kang Ruicheng didn’t expect that Lu Boyan would figure this out when he received Xu Youning’s text message, telling Shen Yuechuan to act as the occasion demanded at the auction.

Shen Yuechuan was vigilant enough to notice all her hesitation and abnormalities whenever Xu Youning was bidding. Therefore, they embarrassed Kang Ruicheng without warning.

“That’s what’s called while the priest climbs a post, the devil climbs ten!” Shen Yuechuan leaned against the desk with his arms crossed, bantering with Lu Boyan. After a while, he asked, “By the way, when can we get that greenfield site? “It won’t do us any good if Kang Ruicheng owns it!”

“Don’t worry.” Lu Boyan picked up a cup of coffee on the desk and took a sip at leisure. “It won’t be late for us to buy it from Kang Ruicheng when it depreciates to the lowest price.”

Shen Yuechuan frowned while pondering, and he immediately figured out Lu Boyan’s plan. He smiled and said, “That’s great. It’s a business with low cost and high profit. I like it. “If there is nothing else, I’m leaving now.”

“Wait a minute.” Lu Boyan stopped Shen Yuechuan. “What are you going to do about Yunyun?”

“What should I do?” Shen Yuechuan shrugged helplessly. “As you can see, she and I lead completely separate lives. “She has grown up with an excellent family background. But I don’t even know who my parents are. “Two people of different upbringing won’t have a happy ending.”

“I see.” Lu Boyan laid down the coffee cup and asked indifferently, “You won’t mind if I introduce someone else to Yunyun, would you?”

Shen Yuechuan suddenly stopped there. “Who is it?”

“You know him.” Lu Boyan said, “He is Qin Wei’s cousin, the young master of the Qin Enterprise Group. He is now the head of marketing in the South China area. He grew up in Europe, by the way. “According to your logic, he and Yunyun will have a happy ending.”

“Are you talking about... Qin Han?” Shen Yuechuan snorted with disdain. “Old Master Qin asked me about a project in South Africa the other day. He was wondering who he should assign to expand markets there. “Now I think that Young Master Qin is the right man for that. Working in South Africa will benefit him both physically and in expertise. I’ll call the old master later.”

With that, Shen Yuechuan strode away with pride like a gust of wind. Lu Boyan took a sip of coffee, flashing a smile while looking at his back.

Outside the study, Shen Yuechuan went downstairs and saw Su Jianan. “I’m leaving now.”

“Yunyun and I are about to leave. Let’s go together.” Su Yunjin stood up and patted Su Jianan’s hand. “Jianan, I will come to see you when I’m free.”

“All right.” Su Jianan nodded with a smile. After glancing at Shen Yuechuan and then at Xiao Yunyun, she supported her baby bump and walked them to the gate.

Xiao Yunyun and Su Yunjin had gone there by taxi. However, it didn’t seem that Su Jianan was going to ask her assistant to drive them back. Noticing that, Shen Yuechuan stopped his car in front of them out of courtesy, then he rolled down the window and said, “Auntie, it’s not convenient to call a taxi here. I’ll drive you back to the hotel.”

“Will it trouble you?” Su Yunjin asked politely, but she didn’t refuse at all.

“Well, not at all.” Hearing Shen Yuechuan’s words, Su Jianan smiled and asked, “Aunt, are you going back to the Century Hotel? “Yuechuan happens to live nearby, so he’s going your way. Plus he’s a hard-working young man, it wouldn’t bother him.”

Shen Yuechuan managed to avoid twitching his lips. He said, “Yeah. It won’t bother me at all.”

“I won’t stand on ceremony if that’s the case.” Su Yunjin opened the door and motioned for Xiao Yunyun to get in the car, while she just stood there with a hesitant look.

“What’s wrong?” Su Yunjin said, “You’ve taken rides from Yuechuan many times, haven’t you?”

“...” Xiao Yunyun opened her mouth without speaking. She didn’t know what to say and only wanted to hit the wall until she died.

She wondered, “D*mn it! Why are my mom and Su Jianan fond of setting me up with Shen Yuechuan!?”

However, Shen Yuechuan didn’t seem to figure out the hidden meaning of Su Jianan’s words. “Is Shen Yuechuan insensitive, or am I thinking too much?”

“Whatever, now that Shen Yuechuan is so calm, I shouldn’t be bashful. Who cares!”

With that, Xiao Yunyun worked up the nerve to get into Shen Yuechuan’s car and said, “OK. Let’s go!”

As Shen Yuechuan stepped on the accelerator, his car got on the road which was surrounded by green trees in the villa district.

Xiao Yunyun kept looking down at her phone all the way. When she caught a glimpse of Su Yunjin, she found that she was gazing at Shen Yuechuan’s back with a soft look she had never seen.

Xiao Yunyun pursed her lips and sent a message to Su Yunjin’s phone: “You’ve fixed your eyes on Shen Yuechuan. Are you picking a son-in-law?”

Su Yunjin had hired a private detective to find out detailed information about Shen Yuechuan the other day, and she had asked the detective to contact her by texting. As a result, she had been waiting for text messages those days, and she had nearly been glued to her phone.

As she gazed at Shen Yuechuan, her phone gently vibrated in her palm. She subconsciously unlocked the screen to check the message, without expecting that it was from Xiao Yunyun. She turned her head only to see Xiao Yunyun grinning, who was just like a child that had successfully played a prank.

Su Yunjin helplessly clicked Xiao Yunyun’s forehead with her plump forefinger. “Behave like a lady. It’s no joke.”

“Oh.” Xiao Yunyun stuck out her tongue. “I see.”

She looked down at her phone again, while a sense of disappointment spread in her heart.

She had wanted to sound out Su Yunjin’s idea about Shen Yuechuan by sending that text message. She had thought that her mother wouldn’t complain about her joke if she liked Shen Yuechuan as she did. The reason why she had made the joke was that she found Su Yunjin didn’t seem to dislike her contact with Shen Yuechuan. Besides, she was even acting like Su Jianan, always trying to set her up with Shen Yuechuan.

She had thought that Su Yunjin was satisfied with him.

However, she found that Su Yunjin might not agree on her closer relationship with Shen Yuechuan, although Su Yunjin was happy to see her stay with him.

She thought to herself, “Well, I’ll never understand the adult world.”

In less than an hour later, Shen Yuechuan stopped his car in front of the Century Hotel. Before he could say anything, he heard Su Yunjin say “ah” from the back seat.

Shen Yuechuan turned and asked, “Auntie, what’s wrong?”

“It just occurred to me that I have something urgent to deal with.” Su Yunjin hastened to push the door open and get out of the car. “Yuechuan, I have to go now. “Yunyun, thank Yuechuan for me.”

With that, Su Yunjin closed the door and quickly left for the hotel gate.

Xiao Yunyun bit her lip with a puzzled expression. “It didn’t seem like my mom had any urgent business just now.”

“That’s not the point.” “The point is that auntie told you to thank me,” Shen Yuechuan said to Xiao Yunyun with a teasing smile.

Xiao Yunyun calmly looked into Shen Yuechuan’s eyes. “How can I ever thank you?”

“I think—” Su Yicheng looked at Xiao Yunyun with a faint smile. “I’d like you to dedicate yourself to me.”

“...”

“...”

“Get lost!” Xiao Yunyun blushed and threw her shoulder bag toward Shen Yuechuan without thinking, then she opened the door and got out.

She thought to herself, “Dedicate myself to you? I’ll gladly do that. But that’s impossible. How dare Shen Yuechuan make fun of me? What a bastard!”

“That’s disturbing me, you know?!”

Shen Yuechuan got out of the car with Xiao Yunyun’s shoulder bag, then he walked up to her and asked, “Did I annoy you?”

Xiao Yunyun snatched her bag from him and carried it over her shoulder. “Shen Yuechuan...”

As she was about to explain it to Shen Yuechuan, there came an urging voice from behind, “Step aside. You’re in the way.”

A group of emergency personnel carried a patient and rushed out of the hotel.

Occupational instinct prompted Xiao Yunyun to look at the patient, and she forgot to make way. Seeing her stand there still, Shen Yuechuan put his palm on her shoulder so that she would make way.

“Ah...” Before Xiao Yunyun could react, she staggered back against Shen Yuechuan and fell into his arms, with her face buried close against his chest. With his arms around her shoulders, Shen Yuechuan looked as if he were hugging her.

Shen Yuechuan did have love experiences. He had given his lovers hugs to comfort them, which was different from the one at that moment.

His comforting hug was like plain boiled water, insipid and dull.

At that moment, however, he felt like his chest was about to overflow with warmth. Shen Yuechuan had the sudden notion to keep his arms around Xiao Yunyun like that.

He couldn’t help thinking, if only Xiao Yunyun could fill up his lonely heart with her warmth.

He couldn’t deny his attachment to that kind of warmth, which he had long been looking forward to...
