She Lives without Regret in This Life

Chapter 736: Chapter 767: A Sanctimonious Appearance

Shen Yu’s composed face was full of fatigue and haggardness. Ever since the newspaper came out in the morning, he had been rendered passive. In the morning, his father had summoned him back home and scolded him for an entire hour.

The other members of the Shen Family also expressed their dissatisfaction with him. Finally, with no other options, several key figures got together to discuss strategies. Midway through the discussion, Qin Yue’s call came through.

”Hello.” Shen Yu managed to keep his composure, knowing full well that Qin Yue was up to no good yet did not reveal it straight away.

”I saw the newspaper.” After finishing his sentence, he glanced at the cover, ”It’s called One Weekly, right? The content is really good, but why do I feel that the back of this man looks a lot like you? Majestic and powerful, very much in the style of Director Shen.”

Shen Yu flew into a range, ”Little Hooligan, what do you mean by that?”

”Isn’t my meaning obvious? I think this man is none other than you, Shen Yu.”

”What evidence do you have?”

Qin Yue suddenly laughed, ”I have no evidence, just asking you. If it’s true, then I must congratulate you. The nickname ’Little Hooligan’ will have to be passed on to you.”

”Little Hooligan, watch your words. Don’t slander without evidence.” Shen Yu repressed his rage and said righteously: ”The woman in the picture is Meng Fan’s fiancée. Even if I, Shen Yu, lack women, I would not touch my brother’s woman.”

”Well said!” Qin Yue clapped sarcastically, his smile fake, ”But you don’t need to be nervous. The Young Chairman has already sacrificed, hasn’t he! Now it’s an era of reform and opening up, we’re quite enlightened. There’s no need to bind a woman’s youth with the shackles of the past.”

”Hmph!” Shen Yu snorted coldly, ”Don’t you dare to defame Meng Fan.”

”Am I defaming him?” Qin Yue countered, ”I’m supporting you. My main reason for calling today is to congratulate you and to express my admiration.”

”Don’t talk nonsense if it’s nothing.” Shen Yu abruptly hung up the phone, his fist clenched tightly, the veins on his forehead bulging furiously. ”Meng Ping, since you dare to seek death, then I will grant it to you.”

”Even Little Hooligan dares to call. It could very well be Su Jiang pulling the strings from behind.”

Shen Yu’s cousin, Shen Ming, stood behind him with his arms folded and a worried look on his face: ”I bet a lot of people have already figured it out.”

”Without evidence, who dares to say it was me?” Shen Yu spoke confidently and dominantly: ”If I say it was me, it’s me; if I say it’s not, no one dares to utter a word.”

”But why would Qin Yue call you?” Shen Ming frowned, ”You really shouldn’t take such a big risk for a woman. I can’t see what’s so great about Bai Tian’e. People like her should just be dealt with!”

”No.” Shen Yu shook his head.

”What? You still can’t bear to do it?” Shen Ming stepped forward, placing a hand on his shoulder and speaking earnestly, ”Big brother, don’t be foolish. There are so many who, due to problems with their personal life, can never advance their careers. You’re the leading figure of the Shen Family. If there’s a problem with your personal lifestyle, then all of us can’t hold our heads high.”

That was why Shen Ming was so worried: firstly, it was about the unity between brothers; secondly, it’s because it involved his own interests.

”If she dies, then it would confirm that it was me.” Shen Yu gritted his teeth, ”That’s why we must not act rashly at this time.”

”You make sense.”

As they were talking, the secretary knocked on the study’s door, ”Director!”

”What is it?” Shen Yu asked impatiently.

”There’s someone outside the compound looking for you. People from the assistant department are asking if you know them.” The secretary added cleverly, noticing Shen Yu’s irritation, ”I just went to take a look, it’s Bai Tian’e!”

”How dare she come here?” Shen Ming’s murderous intent was now fully unmasked.
