Chapter 102 Misunderstanding
Seeing Jiang Wan sitting down next to him, Shen Yan's originally gloomy expression unconsciously eased a little.
After hesitating for a moment, he couldn't help but ask in a low voice: "You and Xie Heng, have you known each other for a long time?"
Jiang Wan picked up the teacup and took a sip. Hearing this, her eyes moved slightly and she turned to look at him: "Not long, not as long as I've known you."
Caught off guard, Shen Yan's heart rate was temporarily unbalanced when he looked into her dark and clear eyes.
He looked away somewhat awkwardly and hummed softly.
"It looks like you two are very familiar with each other. You even... call him Brother Heng."
The corners of Jiang Wan's lips were slightly curved, forming a light and beautiful arc.
"Indeed, I am quite familiar with him. Brother Heng has helped me a lot. But, can we tell whether we are familiar with each other by addressing them?"
Shen Yan was stunned for a moment. When he was about to say something, he saw her side-glance at him and said softly, "Shen Yan, do you want me to call you something else? For example, Brother Yan? Or...A Yan?"
Her voice was originally soft and gentle, and now that she had intentionally dragged out the ending, it naturally became more lingering and lingering, bewitching people's minds.
The moment the last few words fell, Shen Yan's pupils shrank and the tips of his ears suddenly turned red.
He realized she was teasing him again.
He always seemed to be easily confused by Jiang Wan's casual words, but those eyes, like rippling water, were always moist and clear, and they just looked at him so cleanly.
Therefore, even if you know what she is thinking, as long as she smiles, you can't find any trace of deliberateness.
So Shen Yan lowered his eyelashes and could only say: "Jiang Wan, call me whatever you want."
His tone softened unconsciously.
"as you like."
Jiang Wan pursed her lips and smiled.
"Okay, I won't tease you anymore. Your name is so nice, I still prefer to call you Shen Yan."
Shen Yan hummed and said nothing more.
At this time, the already suppressed discussion in the venue almost died down, and the surroundings became completely quiet, followed by a warm applause.
Liang Congwen entered the venue.
The entrepreneurs present were naturally willing to give absolute respect to Liang Congwen, a well-known expert in the industry.
However, to Jiang Wan's surprise, Professor Liang did not make any formal speech tonight. Instead, he shared some of his new views on the current stage of financial development in the form of discussion and question-and-answer session. His words were refreshing and enlightening.
This approach is obviously more in line with the wishes of the people present.
After nearly an hour, it didn't feel boring at all. Instead, everyone was talking happily and the atmosphere was quite harmonious.
Jiang Wan listened very carefully and indeed gained a lot from it.
But time is always limited, and the exchange meeting soon came to an end. In less than twenty minutes, Liang Congwen was surrounded by many entrepreneurs and was chatting with them.
Of course, it is inevitable that corporate CEOs with cooperation intentions will find Shen Yan.
Jiang Wan recognized that the handsome man in his early thirties who was walking towards them with a smile was the CEO of a technology company who often appeared on the business network. So he made up an excuse that he wanted to take a breath and left temporarily, giving Shen Yan and the other party space to talk.
Shen Yan's Zhihe Technology was just coming to the fore at this time, and the necessary business cooperation naturally followed.
From the corner of his eye he caught a glimpse of the night view of the garden with pavilions and corridors dimly lit outside the floor-to-ceiling window. Suddenly he thought of something and walked out from the side corridor.
When he saw the scene clearly, Jiang Wan couldn't help but pursed his lips.
Opposite the garden turned out to be another building that I had just glimpsed when I arrived at the entrance of Yilan Bay.
It’s just that because they are on the first floor and have a special viewing angle design, they cannot be seen at all in the inner hall.
Opposite the fountain roundabout in the center of the garden is an entrance guarded by several security guards.
Although Jiang Wan was somewhat curious because there was almost no information about this place on the Internet, he was not eager to find out the truth.
So she just stared at it thoughtfully for a moment, then turned around and prepared to go back to the backstage, but was caught off guard by a rather complicated gaze the next moment.
The man stood there without blinking, staring at her, with inexplicable emotions in his eyes.
After staring at each other for nearly ten seconds, Jiang Wan blinked and opened his mouth thoughtfully: "Miss Meng came to see me, and you came to see me again. Did I offend you two in some way?"
Fu Chi half lowered his eyes and pursed his thin lips.
"My name is Fu Chi."
Jiang Wan raised the corners of her eyes slightly.
"Um, Fu Chi, what do you want to talk to me about?"
Fu Chi stared at her small face, which was still dazzlingly pale even in the dim light, and a hint of helplessness appeared in his breath.
"There was a misunderstanding between us, and I want to clear it up."
Jiang Wan shook his head.
"Fu Chi, I don't think there is any misunderstanding. If I hadn't seen you again today, I would have almost forgotten what happened before."
"So, you don't have to take it to heart. I don't care at all."
Fu Chi naturally understood the meaning of her words, and suddenly felt a tightness in his chest. After a while, he said, "I don't mean anything else. I just want to tell you that I have no ill intentions."
Jiang Wan chuckled: "I never said you had any ill intentions, you don't have to think too much."
Fu Chi's voice became a little hoarse.
"I can feel that you are avoiding me."
Jiang Wan's eyelashes trembled slightly, but she suddenly smiled.
"Have it?"
Fu Chi's eyes darkened a little.
"Have."
The two men were in a stalemate again, completely unaware that this scene was being seen by people in another building.
*
In fact, Jiang Yan had never expected that they would see the girl they had just met two days ago in Yilan Bay.
At that time, a dinner party had just ended. Shao Ting, who seldom drank alcohol, had two drinks and then went to the lounge on the second floor to take a rest.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Yan was just about to leave and wait outside, but when he turned around, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a familiar figure walking out from the opposite side.
He had only seen one person with that almost perfect, slender, and natural figure.
Jiang Yan's first reaction was naturally to subconsciously think that he had seen it wrong.
When he looked again, he held his breath slightly.
It’s really Jiang Wan.
Through the one-way floor-to-ceiling window, they could see Jiang Wan, but Jiang Wan could not see them.
So for a moment Jiang Yan almost looked into her eyes, but the girl quickly looked away.
Seeing Shao Ting leaning back in the sofa with half-closed eyes and a rather tired look, Jiang Yan was somewhat hesitant whether to say more.
However, he did not hesitate for long, because soon he saw a completely unexpected young man appear behind Jiang Wan.
Now there is no more entanglement.
"Sir, Miss Jiang is here too."
He didn't mention his full name, but Shao Ting slowly opened his eyes, then turned sideways following his gaze, his eyes falling directly on the two figures standing opposite each other below.
Jiang Yan was used to observing his expression, but from such a high angle, with the man's eyelashes lowered, it was difficult to see even a ripple.
He was inexplicably nervous and said cautiously, "If I'm not mistaken, that person should be from the Fu family, named Fu Chi, and he will probably take over Hengdong soon."
"There is indeed a science and technology exchange meeting in Yilan Bay tonight. It is normal for Fu Chi to come, but I don't know...how he knows Miss Jiang."
