After this, they became at ease with each other’s presence. Halfway through their meal, Chen Xiu put down his chopsticks and casually said, “Have you heard about my third uncle?”
Wang Chuan didn’t know why he would mention Chen Shu. In a flash, he decided to feign ignorance. “Dare I ask, aren’t both the heirs of Chen’s Group gone?”
The outside world felt that Chen Family’s right of inheritance had naturally fallen on Chen Xiu. Of course, even Chen Xiu thought so.
“To tell you the truth, my uncle is unfortunate. Something bad happened when he was born.” Although Chen Xiu didn’t make it clear, he deliberately vilified Chen Shu’s birth.
When Chen Shu’s mother suddenly left, they concealed Chen Shu’s existence from the outside world. Only those close to Chen’s family knew about him
Chen Xiu picked up his mobile phone and opened a photo of Chen Shu. “This is my third uncle.”
Wang Chuan’s eyes slowly fell on the photo, and he looked at Chen Shu’s familiar face, which he saw almost everyday at work. Time stood still for a moment, and Wang Chuan did not speak.
Chen Xiu tentatively said, “Huh? Does Senior Wang know my little uncle?”
Wang Chuan raised his head, the emotions in his eyes calm. He shook his head. “No, I don’t know. He’s handsome; a pity he did not get to debut in a movie.”
He and Chen Xiu were not that familiar with each other. Yet somehow, he pulled him to talk about family affairs for no apparent reason. There must be something going on in his mind.
“Yeah.” Chen Xiu’s tone was somewhat regretful.
After Chen Xiu left, Wang Chuan breathed a sigh of relief. If he hadn’t been quick-witted, he would have been exposed. He even felt that he could be nominated for an Oscar for his performance.
He and Chen Shu had known each other for many years, and Wang Chuan never kept secrets from him about his work. Wang Chuan immediately called Chen Shu and told him about his encounter with Chen Xiu in the restaurant.
“President, Chen Xiu asked me if I knew you.” Wang Chuan said, “I denied it. I guess he suspects your identity.”
Chen Shu’s eyes flashed, and he calmly said, “You’ve done a good job. The bonus this month has been doubled.”
Wang Chuan: “Chen Xiu may be keeping tabs on you. You’d better be careful.”
“Hmm.” Chen Shu did not say much. Chen Xiu was the heir to the Chen Family’s fortunes in the eyes of the outside world. Was he still worried about someone competing for his fortune?
The Chen Family’s inheritance, Chen Shu didn’t really care at all.
Ye Sui had difficulty finding the time to watch the video recorded by the camera that night.
She didn’t dare to watch it at home, for fear of being caught by Chen Shu. Maybe he would think she was insane, recording her drunken state.
Ye Sui brought the camera to the studio and took advantage of the break to hide in her dressing room.
The dressing room was quiet. Ye Sui shrank in the corner of the couch and began to play the video.
In the beginning, the video was quite normal. She drank one cup after another. After getting drunk, though, something went wrong. She stuck on the wall and flickered at Chen Shu’s photo!
Ye Sui’s face was red, and her ears were burning at this time. Fortunately, Chen Shu was not at home; otherwise, she would choose to commit suicide on the spot because of embarrasment.
Ye Sui fanned her face with her hand to dispel the heat. She stared at the video without blinking, worried that she might miss it.
Ye Sui looked at herself circling around the room and facing the photos of Chen Shu with intense expressions. In the end, she was almost at loss.
She complained to Chen Shu to the point she looked like a love-struck fool. While watching, Ye Sui thought this was only the thing she did, and she would not do anything extraordinary.
Thinking this, Ye Sui felt a relief. Unexpectedly, the very next second, the closed door opened suddenly, and Chen Shu appeared at the door.
Ye Sui’s camera almost dropped out of her hand, her eyes fixed on it.
Who could tell her why Chen Shu, who was going on a business trip, returned home?
Ye Sui took a deep breath and calmed herself. “What if Chen Shu came home? At best, I usually have a small temper. It’s impossible to throw myself—”
The next second...
Ye Sui did not even finish, her words forcefully stuck in her throat.
As she watched the video, she saw herself suddenly go into Chen Shu’s arms and saying shamelessly, “Chen Shu, hug.”
