Chapter 328: Chapter 328: What is a good gift to give to a nephew and his wife?
The man’s warm breath fell on the sensitive area behind her ear, Shen Yanhe’s body shivered gently, and she lay honestly in his arms, nodding her head, "Yes."
Fu Yanhe’s eyes shimmered with intense heat, and he chuckled softly, carrying Shen Yanhe onto the plane.
He didn’t show any sign of being burdened the entire way.
The sudden appearance of the private jet naturally also drew the attention of many guests.
Yu Jiao, looking through the window, watched Shen Yanhe being carried onto the private jet and said enviously, "Miss Shen’s boyfriend is really rich, and he treats her so well, even coming to pick her up in a private jet."
Qi Jingjing felt a surge of envy, bitter to the core, and couldn’t help muttering under her breath, "Not necessarily her boyfriend, who knows if he might be Shen Yanhe’s sugar daddy?"
After all, in the entertainment industry, there were plenty of celebrities and newcomers being financially supported by others.
Especially someone as stunning as Shen Yanhe, there must be a sugar daddy behind her.
Yu Jiao heard that and glanced at Qi Jingjing, but said nothing.
Qi Zeyi, on the other hand, gazed through the window, watching Fu Yanhe closing the cabin door, remaining silent.
The plane took off, and the guests left the deserted island to go back to their homes.
Qi Zeyi had just returned home from the airport and had not yet had a chance to rest when the urgent ring of the telephone broke the silence in the room.
Qi Zeyi looked down at the vibrating phone number on his screen and answered coldly, "What’s the matter?"
The frantic voice of Wang Hao came through from the other end of the phone: "Qi Zeyi, are you tired of working in the industry? Didn’t I tell you to take care of Miss Qin after the variety show? Who allowed you to let her be bullied?"
Qin Manxiang had called Qin Chengde to complain as soon as she got off the plane.
Before Wang Hao called Qi Zeyi, he had been severely reprimanded by his boss, and even had his bonus for the month revoked as a ’little lesson,’ which infuriated him to no end.
Qi Zeyi, unhurriedly unbuttoning his shirt, spoke indifferently, "You told me to take care of her, but you never said I had to sleep with her."
Wang Hao was annoyed, "What’s wrong with sleeping with her? You’re a grown man; you won’t be at a loss!"
Qi Zeyi let out a scoff, his voice cold as ice, "A man won’t be at a loss? If that’s the case, why don’t you sleep with her?"
He laughed coldly, "There aren’t many days left on my contract with the company anyway, and let me tell you, Wang Hao, I’m done playing your games. Do what you want with your ban! If I can’t terminate the contract smoothly, then I’ll see you in court."
After saying that, he hung up the phone.
The incident during the variety show where Qin Manxiang forced him to kiss her had completely infuriated Qi Zeyi.
He didn’t want to entangle himself with these despicable people any longer.
After hanging up on Wang Hao, Qi Zeyi felt a relief in his heart, as if the shackles that had bound him for years were gradually disappearing.
Sitting on the living room sofa, he remembered seeing Fu Yanhe through the plane window and hesitated for a moment before opening a webpage to ask a question.
[What is a good gift for a nephew and his wife?]
Elsewhere.
Wang Hao could not believe that Qi Zeyi dared to break off relations with him and even hang up on him, his face full of astonishment.
He had leverage over Qi Zeyi because of the company contract and a bit of past kindness.
Because of that slight show of kindness, Qi Zeyi had always let him off the hook, no matter how excessive he had been over the years.
Wang Hao’s brows were tightly knit as he dialed Qi Zeyi again.
The phone was met with only a busy signal.
He had been blocked by Qi Zeyi.
Wang Hao’s face turned as dark as the bottom of a pot, almost throwing his phone in frustration.
Qi Zeyi had truly decided to break off relations with him!
For some reason, Wang Hao felt a sense of unease rising within him.
He had the feeling that something was slipping out of his control.
Inside Qin Manxiang’s villa.
After taking a bath, Qin Manxiang, with her legs crossed, was sitting on the soft sofa, holding out her hand for the maid to apply nail polish, as she made a call to Qin Chengde.
She coquettishly whined in a soft voice, "Daddy, I’ve thought it over, and I just can’t swallow this pride. Could you please invite Shen Yanhe over to our place?"
Qin Chengde doted on Qin Manxiang very much, and hearing her complain about how Shen Yanhe forced her to eat a dirtied roast chicken had already incensed him.
Upon hearing her request, he immediately agreed without hesitation, "I’ll invite her over to our place tomorrow."
Qin Manxiang was pleased, her eyes crinkling with joy, "Don’t worry, Daddy, I’ll make sure she receives a good welcome."
She chatted a bit more, delighting Qin Chengde enormously before hanging up the call.
Qin Chengde looked at his assistant and ordered impassively, "Tomorrow, bring Shen Yanhe over to my daughter by force if necessary."
The assistant nodded, unfazed, "Yes, BOSS."

Meanwhile, Fu Yanhe’s private jet had already flown back to Haicheng and was slowly parked on the villa’s tarmac.
Shen Yanhe, who was already exhausted, had fallen asleep in Fu Yanhe’s arms and was still carried off the plane by him.
By the time she awoke, it was already dark.
Shen Yanhe emerged lazily from her room and instantly saw the man sitting on the living room sofa reading a book.
Fu Yanhe, sensing the gaze upon him, lifted his eyes slightly to look at her; his glance carried a light, gentle smile, softening the chill in his demeanor, "Awake? Are you hungry?"
Fu Yanhe always had a powerful presence.
Just sitting there, he could make one feel an undeniable pressure.
But right now, as he looked at her with a tender gaze, Shen Yanhe felt her heart flutter.
"A little," Shen Yanhe paused, then came downstairs to his side, sitting close to him, "What are you reading?"
Fu Yanhe tucked a pillow behind her lower back, "Documents from the company. I had Auntie keep the food warm; it’ll be ready as soon as it’s heated. Song Shiwei has been sent back by Shifei and is now at the Song family’s old house."
Shen Yanhe leaned comfortably against the pillow, nodding, "Got it."
Fu Yanhe gestured for the Auntie to heat up the meal, then quietly turned his gaze to her, "Did you find out anything on the variety show?"
Shen Yanhe shook her head, her eyes a touch squinted, "No news about the Immortal organization yet; I didn’t get the chance to be alone with Qi Zeyi."
"But I feel like he probably doesn’t have anything to do with the Immortal organization."
Fu Yanhe’s eyebrows lifted slightly, "Why do you think so?"
Shen Yanhe briefly recounted what she witnessed of Qi Zeyi being troubled by Qin Manxiang, "I’ve interacted with people from the Immortal organization twice, and they were all arrogant and vengeful. Moreover, they all share one thing in common."
"They look down on women."
"During these seven days on the variety show, I observed Qi Zeyi, and he treats women with respect. Even when Qin Manxiang clung to him tightly, he avoided her with distaste rather than voicing any insults."
Shen Yanhe stretched languidly, hugging the pillow as she curled up on the sofa, "But this is just on the surface. Whether he is involved or not, I still need to investigate further. In the next episode of the variety show, I’ll find an opportunity to be alone with him and test him."
She had intended to probe him during this episode of the variety show.
However, she hadn’t expected the complication with Qin Manxiang.
Manxiang clung to Zeyi tightly, like a persistent plaster, and for some reason, even though his face showed resistance and disgust, he didn’t push Qin Manxiang away.
"Mhm," Fu Yanhe nodded slightly, leaning forward to pick up a stack of documents from the coffee table, "While you were gone these few days, I gathered some information about Qi Zeyi. Would you like to see it?"
