"I don't feel at ease leaving my matters to others, " Sheng Bowen took the opportunity to respond."But I can't bear to let you do so many things, so I thought... if I'm free, I'll try my best to help you."
"You have bad intentions." Ren Yufei stared at Sheng Bowen as she ate.
Sheng Bowen smiled and also thought of Mu Qiqi's suspicion. He then asked her, "Yufei..."
"Yes?"
"After thinking about what happened between you and Hu Ran today, I still feel that something is not right. Can you tell me why you're putting on that show?"
Ren Yufei stopped what she was doing and hesitated for a few seconds."What show?"
"Although I don't know what happened that you have to hide it from me, I guess the situation must be very serious. Recently, Eighth Brother has been investigating a man named Cheng Bin and also found out who the new product of Huang Yao was leaked to. We feel that Sheng Kai is involved in this matter. If it's something to do with him, then don't hide it from me."
Ren Yufei remained silent for a while.
"You still can't tell me?"
"I have my reasons."
Once Sheng Bowen found out about this, he would not allow the two women to take the risk.
"Then do you want me to ask Hu Ran? But I hope that you can tell me about this personally." Sheng Bowen's tone was very gentle, but his attitude was firm."Do you also think that I'm a man who can only hide under the wings of a woman?"
"Of course not." Ren Yufei quickly retorted, "In my heart, you're the best man."
"Then tell me what exactly is going on. Don't forget that the Sheng family now has a female strategist. Qiqi saw through the two of you at a glance. Do you think that you can successfully hide it from others?"
Ren Yufei took a deep breath. In the end, she still lost."Although what we did may seem a little stupid to you, this is the only thing that we as women can do for you."
After spending some time, Ren Yufei told Sheng Bowen everything that had happened.
Sheng Bowen, on the other hand, became more and more silent."Am I that useless in your hearts?"
"No... We just thought that there was a shortcut..."
"That's not a shortcut. That's working with the devil. I don't know when, but I'll fall into the bottomless abyss. I don't need you to pay such a price, "bSheng Bowen said firmly to her.
"But I also want to... do something for you..."
Before she could finish her words, Sheng Bowen grabbed her by her legs and sat her down.
Ren Yufei was instantly stunned. She felt her body start to heat up.
"I'm not so weak that you women have to take a bullet for me." Sheng Bowen pinched Ren Yufei's chin and kissed her.
Ren Yufei's limbs were stiff, especially her hands. She had nowhere to put them.
Sheng Bowen felt that she was very cute when he saw her like this. He couldn't help it and closed his eyes to deepen the kiss.
Was it such a surprise to be kissed by someone she liked?
Ren Yufei felt that her heart was about to jump out of her throat. However, this man still bit her lips and refused to let go.
This kiss lasted for a long time, so long that both of them got used to each other's taste. Only then did he let go of her.
"So sweet." Sheng Bowen sighed.
"What?"
"The pastries you ate just now." Sheng Bowen pointed at the corner of her mouth and said, "I'm taken the documents back. You should rest early tonight. You're not allowed to get involved in Sheng Kai's matter. I'll discuss it with Eighth Brother. I won't allow you two women to take the blame for me."
Ren Yufei got up from Sheng Bowen's body and nodded."I'll listen to you."
Sheng Bowen held the documents and kissed Ren Yufei on the forehead. Then, he quickly left because he felt his male need creeping up on him.
Ren Yufei walked him out, closed the door, and stared blankly at the supper on the table.
She had never thought that she would be so happy.
Especially when she thought of that long kiss just now..
Ren Yufei quickly covered her face, because she felt as if her whole body was on fire.
..
After Sheng Bowen left Ren Yufei's apartment, he went to the Hu family on the way.
The butler brought Sheng Bowen to the Hu family's living room, which surprised Papa Hu a little."Third Young Master, why are you here..."
"Uncle, is Hu Ran at home?"
"She's upstairs. I'll go get her for you."
After all, the two had broken up, so they should avoid suspicion.
Hu Ran quickly came down. This was the beginning of their displeasure and also the first time Sheng Bowen took the initiative to look for Hu Ran.
Seeing that the atmosphere between the two was a bit strange, Papa Hu took the initiative to go back to his room, leaving space for the two young people.
"Why are you here? Are you here for your new girlfriend?" Hu Ran crossed her arms and said to Sheng Bowen with an arrogant attitude.
"Yufei told me everything, " Sheng Bowen looked at Hu Ran and answered."Everything."
"She really can't keep her cool."
"It was Qiqi who saw through your acting skills. So do you really think that you can hide it from Sheng Kai?" Sheng Bowen asked Hu Ran in return, "Xiao Ran, you have nothing to do with this. There's no need to get involved. It wasn't easy for you to chase away your stepmother. You really don't need to get involved in this mess."
Hu Ran fell silent after hearing this.
After a long while, she raised her head and asked Sheng Bowen, "If you don't need my help, then what do you plan to do?"
"Do you really look down on me so much that you have to stand up for me?"
"That's not what I meant... I just..."
"I know that Sheng Kai has been lying low for so long to come back for revenge, but I'm not so incompetent that I need a woman to protect me. Don't worry, I know the plan for this, but I really hope that you and Yufei, both of you, don't get involved in this anymore. Because losing either of you will make me very sad."
After listening to Sheng Bowen's last sentence, Hu Ran was a little moved."I thought... you only remembered how hateful I was during this period of time."
"I used to think of you as the most important person. Even now, you're still an irreplaceable family member and younger sister. Isn't it too unreal to sacrifice your younger sister for someone like Sheng Kai?"
Hu Ran took a deep breath and sighed. She also admitted defeat."I know what to do."
"Good, so don't do anything stupid. It's getting late, so I'm leaving in case Uncle gets worried." With that, Sheng Bowen got up from the sofa.
Hu Ran walked him out, but before he disappeared, she asked him a question."Are you really in love with the secretary?"
"I am."
"I understand." Hu Ran nodded."If you can get through this safely, I won't say anything. She's willing to do anything for you."
"Of course." Sheng Bowen was confident.
