After Breaking Up, I Married the Dying Tycoon in a Flash
Chapter 32: Honeymooning?

Chapter 32: Chapter 32: Honeymooning?

Bian Yue was thunderstruck, practically scared out of her wits.

Yet Shen Jinci was relentless, grabbing her neck forcing her to bend down close to him.

He seemed to smile with his eyes, but upon closer inspection, they were flat and calm as he said, "Miss Bian might want to consider it. As long as you can have this child, even if I die, no one from the Shen Family would dare to say ’no’ to Miss Bian."

Bian Yue was too terrified by Shen Jinci to speak.

Shen Jinci had greatly overestimated her courage.

God knows, although she had done everything to facilitate her marriage to Shen Jinci, she knew better than to overstep and had never harbored any inappropriate thoughts towards Shen Jinci’s body.

Bian Yue was so nervous she stuttered, and being pinned by the neck, she dared not move. After a long time, she managed to squeeze out a sincere sentiment, "This isn’t right, a child shouldn’t be brought into this world because of manipulation, but should be born out of love."

Shen Jinci was struck by Bian Yue’s sincerity, releasing her from his hold, yet still regarded her with a calm demeanor.

He said, "Bian Yue, not all children in this world are born out of love."

His voice sounded indifferent, yet for some reason, Bian Yue could read a desolate undertone in it.

Just as Bian Yue was about to speak, Shen Jinci had already risen.

He lightly tapped her forehead and said, "I have business and need to go abroad for a couple of days. If anything comes up at home, remember to contact me. If you can’t reach me, let Kang Yu know."

The subject changed so quickly, Bian Yue didn’t react immediately and took a moment before obediently nodding her head.

Shen Jinci seemed to smile, stroking her hair and calling her a good girl, leaving with a faint smile in his eyes and brows.

Yet Bian Yue’s heartbeat was out of sync for a long time.

She sat in her seat, Shen Jinci’s gaze as he last scrutinized her replaying in her mind.

It was a look of detached calm that also held enough story.

It wasn’t about her, but about some unrelated past.

Bian Yue thought, something must have happened to Shen Jinci, something that she was unaware of, and that perhaps very few in the world knew of.

And how could a person continue to carry such a heavy past?

Bian Yue didn’t know.

The next time she received news from Shi An’an, it was her subordinate anny who had specifically made a trip to the Shen Family Mansion.

"You have no idea! This mansion is so big, and they don’t let cars from outside come in. I got lost inside, and it took me almost two hours to find you!" anny rushed in, complaining incessantly, her Prada suit soaked and a mess.

anny’s outfit and look greatly matched the public’s impression of a career-driven witch, with her straight short black hair, perpetual black and white theme, fierce and sharp makeup, even fit for an avant-garde theater stage.

Bian Yue glanced outside, the rain hadn’t stopped.

Bian Yue said, "Then why didn’t you call me, I could have come out to find you."

"The butler said you and Mr. Shen were having breakfast, and I’m not insane, how could I dare to compete with Mr. Shen for your attention?" anny placed her umbrella at the entrance, dripping water and leaving wet marks on the floor.

anny instantly fell silent, scared she wanted to stoop down to wipe it but was stopped by Bian Yue.

Bian Yue watched her amusingly, "What are you doing?"

"The water dripped onto the floor!" her expression panicked, she looked at Bian Yue apologetically and said, "President Bian, is this floor expensive?"

Bian Yue spoke in a teasing tone, "Don’t you follow me around and have seen the world as well? Why so nervous?"

"How can it be the same? Who knows how much this floor costs!" anny spoke earnestly and then calmed down, seriously asking, "President Bian, are you going on a honeymoon?"

Bian Yue’s face flushed a bit, coughing to cover it saying softly, "Shen Jinci has already left the country, what honeymoon am I to go on?"

"If you’re not going on a honeymoon, then you should go to the ’Shengshi Yan’ crew. I can’t handle it." anny sighed, seeing Bian Yue’s serious expression, she slowly explained, "That Shi An’an is causing trouble in the crew."

"Everything was fine, why is she causing trouble in the crew?" Bian Yue was puzzled.

Bian Yue didn’t understand Shi An’an’s intentions. Didn’t she make herself clear the other time she dealt with Shi An’an?

What good could come of her provoking Bian Yue?

"Times have changed Bian Yue, now Shi An’an is a favorite of Li Sihe, and those people in the crew, after all, dare not offend her."

This matter was sudden and made no sense.

Bian Yue pondered for a moment and said sternly, "Let’s do this, I’ll go with you to the crew and we’ll handle this."

"Now?" anny hadn’t yet put down the umbrella and immediately raised it, "Then what are we waiting for? Let’s go!"

The film studio in Xiangjiang was in the suburbs, and it took a long drive to get there.

Bian Yue sat in the car, trying her luck, she called Shen Jinci.

Unexpectedly, it went through, and the man’s low and appealing voice came through the phone.

"Bian Yue?"

"You... you haven’t boarded the plane yet?"

"I have, we take off in 20 minutes." The business class of the plane was quiet, the beautifully made-up stewardess stood aside with a standard smile.

The man was sitting by the window, merely watching the rain leave marks on the plane window, he said, "Yueyue, it’s raining heavily these days, remember to carry an umbrella when you go out."

"I know," Bian Yue looked outside too, raindrops on the car window forming lines, blurring the scenery, she said, "Shen Jinci, I need to visit the crew in the next few days, let’s have a proper talk when you return."

Shen Jinci’s eyes slightly closed, inquired indifferently without a change in expression, "Talk about what?"

Bian Yue said, "Talk about... the thing you mentioned to me when you left today."

She didn’t realize how ambiguous her terminology was.

If it were another woman, Shen Jinci might find it as yielding to advance.

But Bian Yue, she genuinely wanted to have a proper talk.

Shen Jinci’s lips curved in a slight smile, the indulgence in his eyes went unnoticed even by himself, he said, "Alright, when I come back."

Bian Yue digressed and said a few other things, then mentioned she was tired and wanted to sleep.

Before hanging up, Bian Yue wished him a smooth journey.

Shen Jinci thought to himself, this marriage was indeed worthwhile.

"Thanks," he said it just so.

In the rest room of the crew, Shi An’an had just finished her makeup, sitting on the sofa playing with her phone.

"How long has it been, why hasn’t she returned?" Shi An’an impatiently put down her phone, glancing at her manager Zhong Lan beside her who didn’t dare to make a move, "Go out and check for me, where is Yang Shan."

Yang Shan was the second female lead in "Shengshi Yan", and ever since the crew started filming, Shi An’an was constantly targeting her, yet she had Li Sihe backing her up, being the girlfriend of a top-tier family scion in Xiangjiang, who would dare to speak against her?

Zhong Lan’s expression was troubled, as she tried to smooth things over, "An’an, Yang Shan just went out, it’s heavily raining outside, the coffee shop you like is too far, it won’t be quick to return."

"If she can’t return then no need to come back, I think her few scenes today are redundant as well, might as well cut them." Shi An’an looked coldly at Zhong Lan, smiling, "Sister Lan, you aren’t thinking of helping Yang Shan, right?"
