Chapter 501: Narrow Road Encounter

    

bricated by Yanzhi. She suspects you killed her mother and stole your company's project files to get revenge..."Toward couldn't stand it any longer. He took off one shoe and shoved it in her mouth, "S...Downstairs.

A familiar Maybach stopped at the edge of the road, the window slowly rolled down. He Hanchuan's face was wearing a pair of sunglasses, only revealing his delicate jawline, but it couldn't hide his innate nobility.

The moment she saw him, Xiang Wan's gloomy mood instantly lifted. She hurriedly opened the car door and sat in the passenger seat.

"Honey, shall we go home for dinner today I miss Yanbao so much."

She placed a stack of papers on her lap and leaned closer to He Hanchuan, as if making an amicable gesture.

"No rush, there's a new sushi restaurant not far from here. I heard the reviews are good. Want to try it" He raised his hand and rubbed her hair, when he saw her, the tightness on his handsome face softened with gentleness.

Originally, Yanan had a stack of files to take home and deal with. But then she thought, ever since they got Yi Bao, it seemed like their time alone together had become less and less.

Even the best relationships can't withstand this kind of distance.

"Sounds good." She leaned against He Hanchuan's shoulder, tilting her head up and giving a nonchalant smile. "Of course it would be my dearest husband, the one who understands me best."

Helan Chuan's eyes welled with helplessness. He pressed her head down and straightened his body, turning the steering wheel. "I'm driving, don't make a fuss."

Though his tone was serious, the slight upturn of his lips betrayed a hint of fondness.

If it were the old A-wei, I wouldn't believe she would be acting cute. Now her personality has softened a lot.

This change was also a kind of comfort for He Hanchuan, after all, the original hurt he had caused.

The only remaining knot is the scar on Xiangwan's face...

The sushi restaurant was just a short distance away, only a few red lights down the road, and the car stopped steadily in front of it.

The shop is a two-story building, and it seems that due to its recent opening, there were rows of luxury cars parked at the entrance. There was a lot of foot traffic and it was extremely lively.

Because of the scar on her face, Xiang Wan was somewhat afraid of crowds. She deliberately pressed her hat low, and then walked into the store, arm in arm with Gu Yan Shang.

"Mr. Gu, your table has been reserved for you. Allow me to lead you upstairs," said the attendant at the door, stepping forward promptly and greeting them warmly.

"Well, thanks."

Noticing Hoshino's uneasy emotions, He Jianchuan's aura also slightly lowered. He raised his smooth arm and tightly hugged her shoulders, bypassing the crowd.

Compared to the crowded lobby, the second floor was a series of open-air seating areas woven from flowering vines, appearing clean and elegant.

The waiter led them to a table by the window, from where they could see the entire city skyline at night.

A-Wan's hands rested on her chin, gazing at the night view with a somewhat distant look. Perhaps it was because she had been in the treacherous world of wealthy families for so long that this brief peace felt especially precious.

"What are you thinking about" At that moment, He Hanchuan handed her a menu.

Towards the evening, she raised her finger to trace across the menu, selecting a few signature dishes. She lightly pursed her lips, about to find an excuse to answer—

"If I'm not mistaken, Wen Yongbo and those shareholders must have made things difficult for you siblings at today's meeting, causing you a lot of trouble" He Hanchuan didn't wait for her to answer before guessing the general situation.

"Well, it's understandable though, after all even a common poultry would put on a show when someone invades its territory. That's the most basic rule of jungle ecology, and humans are no exception."

The waiter served the dishes very quickly. A table full of delicious food, even Xiang Wan's gluttony was about to come out.

She picked up her chopsticks and took a piece of meat floss sushi, thought for a moment, then passed it to He Hanchuan's plate with a slight smile, "Your favorite flavor."

He swallowed the food in one gulp, then looked at the expressionless Yua across from him. A playful smirk curled upon his lips.

"Just get to the point, what do you want to ask"

"Can't hide it from you." Xiang Wan pressed her chopsticks to her lip corner and shook her head helplessly.

She needed to do nothing, He Hanchuan understood her too well. Many times she would be troubled, this relationship like conjoined twins was a blessing or a curse

"I heard that Mr. Zhong's 80th birthday banquet will be held next week, and Zhong Shaoning will also appear with his girlfriend at that time"

Of course, he just hooked up with the daughter of an oil tycoon recently and is eager to show off, barely escaping his identity as a bastard. He rolled up his sleeves, revealing his smooth forearm, picking at the shrimp shells in the plate, "Do you need an entrance ticket"

"No need." Xiang Wan smiled lightly, "Zhong Shaoning wouldn't miss the chance to show off in front of me. At that time, you just wait and see a good show."

Although Wen Yongbo said not to rely on He Hanchuan's help, he didn't say anything about not asking for it.

He looked at the woman before him, her eyes as cunning as a fox, and a gentle light flickered in his hawk-like gaze.

His wife has always been intelligent and insightful. Since she was confident, she would never make a mistake.

He didn't ask for details, instead placing a well-prepared plate of red shrimp before her. His voice was magnetic, "Since you want to cause trouble, don't be afraid of making it big. The He family isn't short on the ability to clean up your messes."

Hearing this, Xiang Wan's heartstrings suddenly warmed. She didn't know if it was because of the plate of shrimp in front of her or because of He Hanchuan's domineering words of protecting his wife. She felt a surge of emotion—she really was luckier than other women!

As they were nearing the end of their meal, He Hanchuan received a work call and left temporarily. Xiang Wan was just about to finish off another piece of sushi when suddenly, the lights that had been shining on her dimmed abruptly.

"Wan, it's been a while." A familiar male voice came from beside her ear.

With a sudden tightening of her chopsticks, Xiang Wan's eyes darkened, "Jiang Zong, what brings you here"

Without even looking up, she knew it was Jiang Qi Feng just by his voice.

Since three years ago when the Jiang family fell into decline and Jiang Qingran committed suicide in prison, Jiang Qi峰, the once overlooked member of the family, became the pillar of the company.

He also proved himself capable, and it is said that he restored the Jiang family's former glory.

"Wawen, even though you're a mother now, your personality hasn't changed at all. Can you please be more polite when you speak" A sharp female voice followed closely behind.

向晚 put down her chopsticks, looked up, and gazed at Song Qiao, who was arm in arm with Jiang Qi Feng.

“But nobody asked you to come over and greet us.”

One shouldn't strike a smiling person, but seeing the anger rising on Song Qiao's face, he paused, "You..."

"Alright." Jiang Qi Feng's handsome face grew slightly somber, he withdrew his hand from her embrace, and his voice took on a displeased tone, "Song Qiao, this isn't a place for you to act childishly. You better restrain yourself!"

But this, in Qiao Song's eyes, was a deliberate lesson, especially when facing Xiang Wan. She felt even more ashamed to lift her head.

"Oh, so it's Jiang Qi Feng. I knew from the start that you suddenly coming over to say hello wasn't out of good intentions. You still haven't given up on Xiang Wan, have you She's married with kids now, what use is it for you to keep thinking about her"

She screamed loudly, as if trying to draw all eyes to herself.

Jiang Qi Feng felt a flush of embarrassment, turned his head sideways, and pushed her shoulder. "Go back to the car and wait for me first."

And Song Qiao, wearing high heels, stumbled a few steps and fell to the ground. "Jiang Qifeng, you've gotten bold now! For a married woman, you are shameless, even daring to lay your hands on me!"

She deliberately raised her voice, and soon attracted the attention of quite a few onlookers.
