Chapter 122: Chapter 122: Bring the Person Over

Shen Yun’an didn’t say anything to Shen Yi, whatever the reason, failing to secure the cooperation meant he had neglected his duties at work.

But the purpose of his call wasn’t to assign blame. Shen Yun’an’s tone was a bit brusque as he said, "Tell Wanwan that she shouldn’t blame herself for this, it’s not her fault."

When Shen Yun’an found out about what had happened yesterday, that his daughter-in-law had been injured and was still worried about what to do if the documents were lost.

He heard she had cried in such a distressed state, Shen Yun’an thought to himself that the Shen Family wasn’t the type to chide her over this kind of thing!

Shen Yi glanced sideways at Ye Wanwan, a clear smile on his face, "Mm, she’s right here listening."

On the other end of the phone, Shen Yun’an was taken aback, obviously not expecting his daughter-in-law to be listening in.

He couldn’t help but wonder if his tone had been too harsh earlier and if it might have frightened her.

If he had scared her again, he probably would get an earful once his wife came back.

"Ahem." Shen Yun’an cleared his throat, then said as gently as possible, "Wanwan, don’t take it to heart, it’s not that important of a cooperation, it’s fine if it’s gone."

"Dad, I understand, thank you." Ye Wanwan hurriedly replied.

Shen Yun’an continued, "It’s the end of the year, and everyone’s busy. Wait for your mother and mother-in-law to come back, and then we’ll have a family dinner together."

"Okay." Ye Wanwan readily agreed, not daring to object at all.

After hanging up the phone, Shen Yi curiously asked her, "Why are you so scared of Dad?"

Ye Wanwan thought to herself that she couldn’t possibly say that in her past life, her father-in-law had scolded her very harshly!

So, Ye Wanwan casually said, "Dad just looks too stern, like a high school disciplinarian, the kind who frowns and gets angry at even the slightest infringement of the rules."

Shen Yi felt helpless, there was nothing he could do about that, after all, aside from always being cheerful with his mom, his dad had a stern face for everyone else.

That evening, after having dinner with Ye Wanwan at home, Shen Yi said to her, "I have something to do and need to step out."

"It’s so late and you’re still busy!" Ye Wanwan checked the time, it was already past seven.

"Mm." Shen Yi nodded, then a few seconds later added, "I’ll come back early."

Ye Wanwan was at a loss, she wasn’t worried about that, she just purely thought that Shen Yi was too tired.

But if Shen Yi himself wasn’t afraid of being tired, what was there for her to worry about?

"Just go ahead, no need to rush back!" Ye Wanwan pushed him towards the door from behind.

Standing at the door, Shen Yi finally turned around, leaned down, and kissed the corner of Ye Wanwan’s lips, "Rest early, don’t just play on your phone."

"Mm-hmm." Ye Wanwan nodded hastily.

Shen Yi got into the car and left home in the cover of night, while Ye Wanwan, after watching the car drive away, still sent Shen Yi a message on her phone.

"Don’t work too late, come back early."

After sending the message, Ye Wanwan switched out of WeChat to binge-watch her show, and when a new message came in later, she didn’t bother to check it.

Half an hour later, a car stopped in front of a private club, and Assistant Chen rushed forward to open the car door, and Shen Yi stepped down from the car.

"Manager Shen." Assistant Chen called out.

Shen Yi nodded slightly, and began walking into the club.

The server quickly led them to a private room, and Shen Yi sat down and said, "Bring them over."

"Okay." Assistant Chen nodded and left the room.
