Avoid the Protagonist

Not only had Zhuang Zhu come to A City, Mo Bei did too.

Mo Bei looked at the expressionless Sheng Wenyang at the hotel and he couldn’t help but be angry, “He made it so obvious. Are you going to continue this and head towards the wrong path?”

Sheng Wenyang bitterly laughed. “If I don’t head on the wrong path, what else can I do? Mo Bei, I had persisted and tried my best for him all these years. Now that I made myself famous and well-known, he is no longer mine. Are you going to make me give up right now? I can’t convince myself to. I can’t.”

“If you can’t do it, what do you plan to do? Intervene between the two of them and become the mistress?”

Sheng Wenyang never thought that Mo Bei, who had always obedient to her, would say something like this. She reacted intensely and stood up to argue with Mo Bei, “Who’s the mistress?! Who! Chen Sinan is mine! Xin Siyue was the one who seduced her while I was abroad! It’s Xin Siyue!”

Mo Bei’s reaction, compared to hers, was basically two different extremes. He sat calmly on the gray single person sofa and said emotionlessly, “Wenyang, you always think that the best should belong to yours. It’s the same for clothes, career, and even love. You want Chen Sinan but did you ask about his opinion? I just remembered that you probably didn’t even ask him if he liked you before you went abroad, right?”

As expected, her face turned worse when Mo Bei asked her that. He mocked himself for being stupid. He was actually fooled by Chen Sinan and Sheng Wenyang!

He calmed down and said meaningfully, “Wenyang, if he could say that publicly during a news conference, it proves that he doesn’t have you in his heart. Why must you lie to yourself?!”

“I’m not lying to myself!” Sheng Wenyang said loudly. “Chen Sinan is supposed to mine. I just went abroad and now, everything changed. Mo Bei, this shouldn’t be the case! This shouldn’t be!”

“Time can change a lot of things. Wenyang, give up. Chen Sinan likes Xin Siyue.”

“No! No! It’s not my style to just give up without trying. At least, I won’t feel ashamed if I fail after trying.”

Mo Bei stared at her determined expression and he suddenly laughed. “Sheng Wenyang, what about me? Who do you take me to be? You think that I would just stupidly wait here for you, no matter how far you walk off to, just like Chen Sinan?”

“Mo Bei, didn’t we say that we won’t mention that matter again?”

Mo Bei laughed helplessly. “Yes, I won’t mention it because I’m always the one investing in this. Wenyang, sometimes I would ask myself, why am I doing all of this for you? But, maybe after a few years, this question wouldn’t be as important anymore.”

“Mo Bei…”

“I’m just worried for you. Seeing that you have the spirit once again, I think I don’t need to stay here anymore. I still need to return to Shengjin City to handle some matters. I’ll be going now.”

“Mo Bei…” Sheng Wenyang stared at his lonely silhouette and didn’t know what to say for some time.

The second day, Xin Siyue was about to get ready for work after coming downstairs when she saw Chen Sinan wearing a suit and waiting for her in the parking lot.

Xin Siyue wanted to walk around him when Chen Sinan noticed her and immediately walked up. “Good morning.”

“President Chen, what are you planning to do?”

“I’m bringing you to work.”

“Thank you but there is no need.”

“I bought breakfast.” Chen Sinan stopped her from walking to the right.

Xin Siyue looked expressionlessly at him and walked over to the other side. However, Chen Sinan stopped her again. “I’m just scared that you would head to work early so I had been waiting here for you since early in the morning.” In other words, he had been waiting for a long time.

Xin Siyue thought this was funny. “I didn’t make you wait for me.”

“Hm? So can I take you to work?”

“I can drive myself.” Xin Siyue rejected.

“Can’t you give me a chance to perform?” Chen Sinan believed even more that this woman had a heart of stone.

“The chances are for people who need it. President Chen, I think you should forget about it.”

After Xin Siyue left him behind and saw that he didn’t chase after her, she couldn’t help but wonder how come he was so easy to talk to today.

When she arrived at the TV Station, the colleague in front of the reception desk said that she needed to sign something. Xin Siyue was stunned.

What did she have? She didn’t remember having a delivery.

When she saw a bouquet of brilliant red roses, she was frozen.

The bright red color attracted many female colleagues. Someone asked, “Did President Chen gift this bouquet of roses?”

Xin Siyue responded without thinking, “Impossible!” In the original book, Chen Sinan seemed to have never gifted Sheng Wenyang flowers.

The colleagues all gestured about and said, “We don’t believe this!”

“Won’t we find out by looking at the card?!”

“Siyue, Siyue, quickly look! Quickly look!”

“Don’t be shy, Siyue. Don’t hide this from us. Just look at the signature.”

In the end, at the bottom of the pink card was Chen Sinan, written in bold cursive calligraphy.

“Wow! So romantic! President Chen is so considerate!”

“Siyue, you’re so blessed!”

Xin Siyue was confused. He actually gifted this? Chen Sinan was being serious?
