"What do you mean?"

Frowning, Shen Xuyan didn't know what Yan Ruo meant.

Thank him for what? Thank him for keeping her in captivity like a canary, or thank him for humiliating her with complete disregard for her dignity?

Yanruo's brain is not sick......

Yan Ruo naturally didn't know what Shen Xuyan was thinking at the moment, but he felt that he had finally said it, and he couldn't help but feel relaxed.

"That's it, in fact, I want to thank you for allowing me to appear in the bright light. ”

Immediately, Shen Xuyan also knew what Yan Ruo meant.

"Don't thank me, I'm just not used to the existence of people around me, are you done?

Without waiting for Yan Ruo to say something, Shen Xuyan got up and left, but at the moment when Yan Ruo couldn't see it, the corners of his mouth smiled slightly.

In fact, Yan Ruo is not an idiot, she also knows how to judge the situation.

After all, she is also the daughter of the business tycoon Yan Tianhao, if she can't even understand such a little bit of human sophistication, then she is really useless.

In the past half a month, Shen Xuyan has frequently taken her to the party, but in fact, she only officially introduced her to everyone through Yunman's father when she attended the party for the first time, and her identity is also a famous lady.

Since even Yunman's father, such a high-ranking political official, has instructed Shen Xuyan to take good care of Yan Ruo, then it doesn't matter whether Yan Ruo is an illegitimate daughter or not, the important thing is that her identity that has been repeatedly disgraced has finally made everyone look at her now.

With Yun Man's father's face, but in exchange for the fact that she is no longer an illegitimate daughter who has never seen the light, Shen Xuyan's deal is really amazing.

It's just that what Yan Ruo didn't know was that the reason why Shen Xuyan arranged it like this, and he also made Yunman's father can't help but help, but it wasn't because of how big Shen Xuyan's face was.

It's Yunman's father who knows that after forcing Shen Xuyan to get engaged to Yunman through his own power, if he didn't help Shen Xuyan do something, Shen Xuyan would definitely not just forget it.

This kind of back-and-forth thing is always much more terrifying in secret than it seems on the surface.

As for Shen Xuyan continuing to attend various balls with Yan Ruo frequently after this, he simply wanted to give Yun Man a warning, don't use anything to threaten him indiscriminately, he Shen Xuyan is not a doll who will be manipulated by others.

It's just a pity that Yun Man, who was stunned by the existence of Yan Ruo, didn't think of this layer at all, even if her father already knew what Shen Xuyan meant, but he couldn't tell his daughter directly, so he had to restrain Yun Man again and again, don't come nonsense.

Soon, Yunman completely destroyed her father's restraints, and the relationship between the two families began to slowly become stiff.

Just a week later, Shen Xuyan received an invitation to a business reception, and according to this short-term convention, Yan Ruo was once again dressed up beautifully and attended as Shen Xuyan's female companion.

In fact, it is a commercial cocktail party, but more often than not, it is not a business elite who attends, but the existence of some families who are not engaged in production.

Naturally, the ladies and ladies of various families will not let go of this kind of social occasion.

"Preamble! I thought you wouldn't come to this kind of party. ”

Just when Shen Xuyan had just entered the venue with Yan Ruo, Yun Man changed his attitude some time ago and came forward to say hello very kindly.

"If today's outfit is quite unique, go back and let the preface take you to my store to pick out some jewelry to match, it's so monotonous. ”

Even Yun Man affectionately grabbed Yan Ruo's arm, talking and laughing, as if there had never been any gap between the two of them.

“…… No, no, I already have a lot of jewelry, thank you. ”

If you say it, she was confused by Yun Man's sudden enthusiasm, and wondered if it was Shen Xuyan who did something to make Yun Man no longer hostile to him.

Then he looked at Shen Xuyan, but saw that he didn't pay attention to himself at all, Yaoyaotou, probably because she was thinking too much.

Yun Man, who took this scene in his eyes, tried to suppress his anger.

Look, look, I'm going to see how you slut is eye-to-eye with the prologue in front of my eyes!

"It's rare to see you so friendly, Yunman. ”

Just when Yun Man was pulling Yan Ruo and talking to her, a few wives who didn't look at the situation came over, I don't know if it was ridicule or really strange.

"I'm very friendly to everyone, but if some people don't want me to be friendly, then I don't need to be polite, do you say?"

In a word, the wives were angry in their hearts.

It is said that Yunman himself is the owner of a chain store in the clouds, no matter from which point of view, he is definitely much more capable than these broad wives who are raised in the deep boudoir.

Maybe it's really as Nie Yuqing said, Yun Man spent three years by Shen Xuyan's side and got a certain amount of attention, and now if it weren't for Yan Ruo's sudden appearance and chaos in his own position, maybe Shen Xu Yan would put Yun Man in a more important position than Yan Ruo.

"These ladies just like to chew the root of their tongues, preface, you go about your own business, if I help you watch it. ”

While blocking those wives and turning to leave, Yun Man still held Yan Ruo's arm, looking so affectionate, and then wanted Shen Xuyan to leave according to the previous arrangement.

"No, she is the female companion I brought, so naturally she will follow me to meet people. ”

But he didn't want Shen Xuyan to just bring Yan Ruo back to his side with an expressionless face, so that Yunman's plan fell through.

Looking at the two who were gradually moving away, Yun Man gritted his teeth and turned around and left there.

Immediately, Yan Ruo, who was shuttling back and forth in the crowd, stayed by Shen Xuyan's side with peace of mind.

"Yunman is not quite right today, you should be careful yourself. ”

I don't know for what reason, Shen Xuyan reminded Yan Ruo's side.

This casual reminder made Yan Ruo's heart shake and thank him in a low voice.

This time, the party was arranged outside, and there was a man-made pool on the luxuriously decorated outdoor lawn, and the surrounding flowers and trees were planted to complement each other, and people felt a little more energetic when they watched from the sidelines.

Coupled with the lights that gradually turn on in the evening, it can be seen that the designer has put a lot of thought into it.

Yan Ruo just followed Shen Xuyan's side, watching the scenery around her, while doing what her female companion should do.

"It seems that we are very fateful, and we have met again. ”

Just when he was speechless, Mu Chen, who came to him, politely greeted Shen Xuyan.

Since the last incident, there has been no connection between Yan Ruo and Mu Chen, but after all, Mu Chen used to be the person Yan Ruo trusted, and Yan Ruo, who recovered after that, didn't blame him anymore, and greeted Mu Chen as usual at this moment.

"Why don't you wear so little, why don't you wear a shawl?"

Afterwards, Mu Chen directly focused all his attention on Yan Ruo, seeing that she was not angry with herself because of what happened last time, Mu Chen couldn't help but start caring about Yan Ruo.

"It doesn't matter, it's not very cold here. ”

"How can it not be cold, it's late autumn now. ”

As he spoke, Mu Chen frowned.

Facing the conversation that the two of them would ignore, Shen Xuyan took the champagne on the table next to him, took a sip, and put the wine glass in front of Yan Ruo at the moment when Yan Ruo was about to open his mouth to continue chatting with Mu Chen.

"Uh...... How to ......"

Yan Ruo, who was suddenly interrupted by the wine glass in front of him, looked up at Shen Xuyan curiously.

"I can do it myself......"

Thinking that it was Shen Xuyan who handed her wine, Yan Ruo hurriedly stretched out his hand to take it, but Shen Xuyan didn't mean this at all, so he just held the wine glass in front of Yan Ruo.

"Drink. ”

Immediately, Shen Xuyan moved the wine glass to Yan Ruo's lips a few points, and that posture was to drink the wine with Yan Ruo's hand.

"Mr. Shen, if she is not a doll that needs to be taken care of, whether she drinks or not, it is her own freedom. ”

Seeing that Yan Ruo looked embarrassed because of Shen Xuyan's actions, Mu Chen couldn't hold back and directly opened his mouth to stop him.

"You're right, she is indeed not a doll that needs to be taken care of, so Mr. Mu's concern seems to be a bit redundant. ”

At this moment, the two men officially began to attack each other face to face, but Yan Ruo, who was in the middle, couldn't cry or laugh.

"Mr. Shen's words sound a little wrong, my concern for Xiao Ruo is completely out of greetings between friends......"

"Since you're just a friend, doesn't Mr. Mu think that your concern has surpassed that of me?"

The words that had not yet been finished were unceremoniously interrupted by Shen Xuyan, and when he heard Shen Xuyan's sentence "people around him", he suddenly became a little depressed.

Ruo Ruo raised his head dissatisfiedly and wanted to say something to Shen Xuyan, but when he saw the strange victory in Shen Xuyan's eyes, he suddenly stopped his intention to speak.

I don't know why, some sourness spread in Yan Ruo's heart.

"She belongs to me now, not Mr. Mu, I think Mr. Mu should be very aware of this fact. ”

"Shen Xuyan, if she is not your doll!"

Mu Chen, who was repeatedly stimulated by Shen Xuyan, finally couldn't help but erupt, and there was an obvious warning in his lowered voice.

"Yes, but to me, she's my doll. ”

In a word, Shen Xuyan pulled Yan Ruo, who was standing on the side, into his arms, not only spoke arrogantly, but also forced Yan Ruo to raise his head while Yan Ruo was stunned, and gently printed a kiss on Yan Ruo's lips.

Immediately, he looked at Mu Chen defiantly, waiting to see what kind of expression he would make next.

"Enough! I'm not a plaything for you two!"

However, in front of Shen Xuyan's gesture of declaring victory, Yan Ruo completely lost his temper because of that sentence of the puppet, broke free of Shen Xuyan's arm and ran to the other side.

At that moment, the hope in Yan Ruo's heart, which had been re-established with great difficulty, fell apart once.

She's just his doll!

In Shen Xuyan's eyes, she said that if she was just a doll of him, it would be good to tease her when she was happy, and she would be casual when she was unhappy.
