Shen Rao looked up in surprise.

"Qi Yan, isn't this the bodyguard you arranged for me?"

"..."

When the name came out, everyone felt it sounded familiar, until the sloppy boy spoke.

"Isn't that the name of Big Brother's ex-girlfriend?"

After this suggestion was made, everyone looked at Qi Yan strangely.

Jin Hui held the cat, patted her son and warned him.

"What do you want here?"

Shen Chi curled his lips indifferently.

Qin Nonyu turned to look at the servant beside him, wanting to confirm the truth, and the other party whispered in his ear.

"This is indeed the bodyguard you arranged for the young master."

She turned her head silently, her expression turning strange.

The look in his eyes when he looked at Qi Yan changed several times and became obscure and difficult to understand.

half an hour.

It was as if he had figured something out in an instant, and his expression was a little complicated.

Under the inquiring gazes of the crowd, he picked up the teacup and took a sip to calm his hectic mood.

Seeing that his old lady didn't say anything, Shen Rao glanced at Qi Yan who was standing beside him with a calm look.

He spoke in a voice that only the two of them could hear.

"Grandma doesn't recognize you?"

Before, he swore that it was sent by Old Madam Shen.

Now it seems that Qin Nongyu has never seen her at all.

The old lady asked the man to protect her closely, even though she had never met him?

It’s not like the old lady had given him bodyguards before, but they were all carefully selected.

Qi Yan is special.

Not to mention choosing, I’m afraid I don’t even know the name.

I thought the old lady knew that the bodyguard was Qi Yan and made such arrangements on purpose.

It seems not now.

He lowered his dark pupils, held her metacarpal bones, and rubbed the thin calluses on the palm of his hand lightly with his index finger.

Qi Yan felt his palm was itchy and he pulled back, but just as he moved, he was held tightly.

A large hand with distinct joints held her, and the slightly hot body temperature was transmitted through the palm.

He tilted his head, and his calm black eyes met her gaze for a few seconds before slowly moving away.

Qi Yan glanced at the two people's clasped hands, pursed her lips, and did not move.

Answer his question quietly.

"This is the first time we've met."

"cough……"

Before Shen Rao could open his mouth, he was interrupted by a low cough.

Qin Nongyu took in all their little movements and put down the teacup.

"It was indeed me who arranged it. I'm old and my memory is not good, so I forgot it."

Shen Rao didn't believe this excuse.

Her obscure and complicated gaze moved away from their clasped hands.

“Did you do anything about the Han family?”

Qin Nongyu's face returned to its previous solemnity, and the aura of the superior who had been in power in the Shen family for many years was fully revealed.

The others sat upright.

But looking at Shen Rao's eyes, there was more or less some excitement of watching the fun.

Although there are many doubts, there are rumors that Shen Rao dealt with the Han family, sent Han Ting to prison, and forced Master Han to death.

Some people even dug up that Shen Rao's ex-girlfriend had an affair with Han Ting.

He rushed through the pass in anger for his beloved.

In response to Mrs. Shen's questioning, Shen Rao still maintained a nonchalant attitude.

"not me."

"If it's not you, then who else could it be? People are saying it outside..."

Qin Nongyu suddenly stopped talking.

Looking at Qi Yan who was daydreaming, she seemed to sense her gaze and nodded to meet his gaze.

The clear eyes, like those of an ancient well, looked over so calmly, as if looking into a deep pool of stagnant water.

Qin Nongyu realized something now.

This somewhat familiar face, Han Ting's rapid downfall, Han Tanglin's suicide after leaving behind a suicide note...

She stroked her forehead and felt her migraine coming back.

Seeing that her face looked strange, Jin Hui quickly put the cat down and half-knelt beside her, worriedly speaking.

"Madam, do you have a headache again? Why are you still standing there? Go get the doctor."

The second half of the sentence was directed to the servants behind him.

The couple on the right also came over.

"Auntie, can I give you a massage?"

Qin Nongyu raised his hand and stopped the servant who was about to call the family doctor.

"No, I'm fine. Except Shen Rao, all of you go out."

"Auntie, your health is very important..."

"go out."

Two words, concise and to the point, and not too loud.

But the others dared not disobey.

Even though Shen Rao is in power in the consortium now.

Old Madam Shen still has the final say in this family and in the Shen family.

Several people had no choice but to go out.

Qi Yan tried to get up, but Shen Rao held her hand tightly and refused to let go.

Qin Nongyu rested his elbow on the armrest of the sofa and pressed his temple lightly.

"She's going out too."

There is no need to mention who this 'she' is.

But Shen Rao was still unwilling to let go. He turned to look at Old Madam Shen and said stubbornly.

"She is my personal bodyguard and cannot leave my sight."

He emphasized the word "closely".

"Shen Rao!"

Qin Nongyu simply slapped his hands on the armrest of the sofa.

The well-maintained face was stained with visible anger.

Seeing that the grandfather and grandson were on the verge of a fight, Qi Yan had no choice but to pull his hand away little by little, while whispering softly in his ear to coax him.

"Be good, I'll wait for you outside."

After saying this, he strode away without waiting for Shen Rao's reaction.

After the double carved wooden doors were closed, there were only two people left in the living room.

The air was eerily silent, with only the sound of wood burning in the fireplace next to the sofa.

Shen Rao clenched his empty palm, rested it against his chin, and said in a calm voice.

"Grandma, is there anything you want to talk about alone?"

He bent his fingers slightly and rubbed the back three fingers and thumb a few times.

His eyes kept glancing towards the door, which was a little absent-minded gesture on his part.

Qi Yan came out of the reception room and the servant led her to the other side.

As soon as I passed the side hall, I was stopped.

Jin Hui leaned against the door frame in a luxurious outfit, stroking the snow-white cat with heterochromia in her arms.

He raised his eyebrows and looked at her unconcealedly.

A few seconds later.

I put on a smile, but the smile didn't reach my eyes.

"Xiaoyan, come in here quickly."

The servant was about to speak when Jin Hui glared back at him.

He had no choice but to shut up.

The second wife of the Shen family is not someone you can easily mess with.

Qi Yan was dragged in forcibly. Inside was a small reception room, which was still luxuriously decorated.

All the people who were in the reception room just now gathered here and saw Qi Yan come in.

They all stopped talking and looked at her with various eyes.

From top to bottom, from head to toe.

At the same time, he inadvertently revealed a bit of condescending contempt.

There are few people in the Shen family who don’t know the name Qi Yan.

After all, Shen Rao has been in and out of love in recent years, and he didn't give up even after a breakup. In addition, he attempted suicide some time ago, which made a big fuss.

But no matter whether it was three years ago or three years later.

Shen Rao protected this person so well that the Shen family only knew his name.

Shen Quezhu turned his head back to the phone and said rather boredly.

"What? So this is what it looks like."

The rumors outside are so weird.

If you don’t know her, you would think she has three heads and six arms.

She's just an ordinary woman with a good-looking appearance.

I heard that he came from the mountains and was just a bumpkin with no education or background.

They are not in the same class at all.

Born into the Shen family, she had a very high opinion of herself, so she didn't even bother to think about making things difficult for herself.

Downgrade!

She talked to herself so quietly that everyone in the room could hear her.
