"Not bad." The light in Shen Geng's eyes darkened slightly, but his tone remained indifferent.

From the looks of it, the old man still did not know what had happened tonight. Qin Sheng, who was sitting on the sofa, smiled.

"Alright, that's good." Old Man Shen did not have the slightest suspicion. Instead, he felt a sense of relief.

He did spend a lot of time putting the two together.

"Is there something else?" Seeing that the other party did not intend to hang up, Shen Geng had a bad premonition. How could the Old Man Shen let him off so easily?

The other party let out a light laugh, "Shen Geng, ah, Shen Hang will return tomorrow, and tomorrow night, we'll make an appointment with Han Xue. We'll have a good meal together, so we can consider it as welcoming Shen Hang back into the capital."

Shen Geng frowned, he was like a sharp sword, his expression suddenly became gloomy and murderous.

He froze for a few seconds before replying coldly, "No!"

The Old Man Shen seemed to have expected his answer, as he said word by word: "Kid, I think you should know better than me that there's no point in struggling over it, do you understand what I mean?"

"No!" Shen Geng repeated his words without hesitation, and the lines between his brows became even more obvious.

"Shen Hang is your brother!" The Old Man Shen lost his patience and ordered irritably.

"I said no!" Shen Geng seemed to not have the slightest intention of giving in as he said angrily, his eyes reflecting deep anger.

Qin Sheng, who was at the side, was scared stiff by his scolding.

It had been a long time since he saw Shen Geng get so angry. This was the first time in a few years.

"Shen Geng!" Old Man Shen's patient temper was provoked and he could no longer suppress it.

"Shen Hang is your little brother after all. Let me tell you again, tomorrow night, we'll go home to eat dinner together with Han Xue! It's rare for a family member to be reunited, so don't let me down! "

His tone was neither light nor heavy, but it was filled with an unquestionable deterrence and pressure. After he finished speaking, the old man even violently coughed a few times.

The doctor said he couldn't stand too much verbal stimulation...

Shen Geng's eyes that were originally filled with anger now flashed with a trace of worry. His cold lips tightly pursed into a straight line.

"Got it." Without waiting for the old man's next reaction, he chose to compromise.

"Seriously, just agree to it early in the morning, and make me so angry. Remember, don't forget about it!" The old man grumbled unhappily.

After hanging up the phone, Qin Sheng carefully glanced at Shen Geng. Seeing that he was still in the same position as before, standing in place, although his back was facing, Qin Sheng could vaguely feel that the man's Qi had been suppressed by a few degrees.

"Daddy!" Just as Shen Si was thinking about whether to speak, as if he understood something, he jumped off the sofa and grabbed onto the corner of Shen Geng's clothes. "Are you alright?"

The anger and displeasure in his words was not only limited to Qin Sheng. Shen Si who had been minding his own business had also realized this.

"I'm fine." Shen Geng regained his senses, squatted down, and looked straight into Shen Si's eyes.

The tone of her voice suddenly became a lot softer and sweeter, but the corners of her lips had a hint of an indistinct smile, with a hint of helplessness.

"Little guy, it's getting late. You need to hurry up and go to bed, otherwise, how long would it take?" "Your dad and I need to talk about something that a grown man can listen to …" Qin Sheng coaxed with a smile as he said that, and sent Shen Si back upstairs.

There were only two people left in the hall. In such a large space, there was only a small floor lamp. The light was so weak that it seemed to be deliberately intended to set off this tense atmosphere.

"Click ~ ~ ~"

Shen Geng lit up a cigarette, the scent of the tobacco quickly spread out, and with his eyes lowered, no one could see his expression clearly.

"Why?" Qin Sheng could not help but ask.

"I'm fine." He puffed on his cigarette for a moment before replying.

Qin Sheng's eyes darkened, "If there's anything you need, find me."

Qin Sheng was not stupid. He had already guessed sixty to seventy percent of what happened just now. He patted Shen Geng's shoulders and walked upstairs.

"Yes."

Was he really coming back?

Shen Geng loosened his tie, and his deep black eyes immediately darkened.

"My daughter, why is it that I saw a taxi that brought you back? That brat Shen Geng didn't personally send you back? " When Gu Hanxue entered, Gu’s mother with her sharp eyes immediately questioned.

She was naturally worried for their progress when she finally heard that Shen Geng was going to take the initiative to ask her daughter out.

"No, Shen Geng's company still has some matters, I had insisted on sending me back, but I rejected it, since that place is not far from our home, I came back myself."

Gu Hanxue forced a smile on her face but her hand still clenched the bag tightly. It was unknown if it was because she felt guilty from Gu’s mother's doubtful gaze or because she was still angry at the moment.

"No matter how busy I am, I still have time to send you home, right?" Gu’s mother frowned, he took a sip of the tea on the table, wanting to continue asking.

"Mom, it's nothing. I'm a little tired today, so I'm going up to rest!" Without waiting for her response, Gu Hanxue quickly fled upstairs.

The Gu’s mother sitting on the sofa couldn't help but narrow his eyes, revealing a faint light of doubt.

Gu Hanxue's expression completely changed the moment she locked the room. She casually threw her bag aside and sat down on the sofa.

She didn't mean to lie in front of her mother, but how could she say that her fiancé was a G-a-y?

She crossed her arms across her chest. Her eyes were filled with the anger and unwillingness to be cheated, and she didn't know how to retaliate in the face of such unwillingness.

At that moment, the phone in her pocket beeped. She looked at the recipient, froze for a few seconds, then smiled.

"The plane will arrive tomorrow morning. Do you want to come and pick me up?"

It was a message from Shen Hang.

A surge of hope suddenly surged up Gu Hanxue's heart, she had already made other plans, and the smile on her mouth became even wider.

"If Young Master Shen Family is going to return, it will definitely cause a stir in the paparazzi team. I don't want to be in the headlines with you!" She half-jokingly typed out the words.

"You don't have to worry about that. As long as you can come and pick me up, I'll take care of the rest." The other side replied almost instantly.

She put down her cell phone and didn't reply. The smile on her face was mixed with a hint of cunning.

Ten minutes later, her cell phone rang as she had expected.

Once she picked up, she said to Ye Ci, "Why didn't you reply to my message?"

There was no blame in this question. The soft voice had a bewitching quality to it, and there was an enchanting mystery mixed in with the melodious sound.

"How dare I? Lord Young Master Shen, I was just thinking about the wording. " She spoke with a smile. Her voice was very pleasant between the sweet and sweet, but it carried a different meaning.

"So have you thought about it yet? Do you want to come and pick me up? " Shen Hang patiently asked her.

He had full confidence in this tug of war.

In the next second, Gu Hanxue said lightly, "Shen Hang, you know that I have an engagement with your brother."

Even if she did not say it out loud, Shen Hang understood what she wanted to say.

As his future sister-in-law, if Gu Hanxue was caught red-handed by the paparazzi at the airport, she guessed that the media would probably make a big fuss out of nothing.

"An engagement?" Shen Hang chuckled, his tone carrying a bit of disdain, "If that's the case, then I won't make things difficult for you. Tomorrow night, this old man will say that he will help me welcome the return of the clan, and I'll see you then!"

"Are you angry?" Just as he was about to hang up, Gu Hanxue asked.

"How could that be?" The other party replied indifferently.

Although that was what he said, that unnatural tone still made Gu Hanxue's mouth raise into a smile.

She stretched out her hand to roll her hair, and her tone suddenly became sweet and gentle, and also somewhat provocative, "Shen Hang, you know, your place in my heart, is only because there are some things that I do not have the power to decide."

"So what are you going to do? Snow? choose to betray me, or choose to give up on him? " Shen Hang said half-jokingly, asking her to give an answer straightforwardly.

Give up? Just because Shen Geng was g-a-y, he gave up on the Shen Family great young master? It was not a smart decision.

Betrayal? Choose to say goodbye to Shen Hang's ambiguous feelings for the past few years? This was not her intention.

"I'll call you. Good night."

She hung up first.

She wasn't good at multiple choice questions, but she didn't want to give up on either side.

On the other side of the phone, Shen Hang heard the sound waves and smiled evilly. His long and narrow eyes squinted slightly, revealing a sinister light.

Su Anran never thought that the scandal would actually be quelled within a few days. She, who had been hiding at home all this while, was immediately invited by Lo Linglong to go shopping.

"Speak, Shen Geng kept his promise. He really suppressed the commotion caused just now in a short three days. Seems like he treats you pretty well!" Walking in the high-end shopping mall, Lo Linglong said half jokingly.

"Linglong, don't think I can't tell what you're trying to say! Little Fairy, I beg of you, don't think too much into it. This person was only helping me out at the same time, and also helping me out on the way! It's just a small matter and you even have to show your gratitude. Merchants usually don't reject something that isn't worth their money, okay? " Su Anran helplessly reached out to pinch Linglong's delicate little face.

In the next second, before she could even react, her body had already crashed into a wall of flesh.

Lifting his eyes, Su Anran's pupils dilated and his body stiffened slightly. He instinctively took a step back.

Shen Geng!

That grave and stern face didn't have the slightest bit of emotion, exuding an ice-cold atmosphere that could repel people a thousand miles away like usual. Those indifferent eyes didn't linger on her body for even a moment, as if the Su Anran in front of her was air.
