Gu Huaizhi didn't respond to Lin Jinshen. Instead, he turned around and said to Shen Mianyin, who was sitting in the back seat, "I won't be home for dinner tonight. Mr. Smith is coming over, and I need to entertain him."
Shen Mianyin: "..."
Why are you telling me this if you're not coming home for dinner?
Shen Mianyin's mouth opened and closed, not knowing how to respond to Gu Huaizhi.
Lin Jinshen: "!!!"
The way Gu Huaizhi said that, it's as if he's reporting his schedule to Shen Mianyin?
Lin Jinshen chuckled lightly, seemingly casually, and said, "Mr. Gu, do you need to tell Mianyin that you won't be home for dinner?"
Mianyin?
Gu Huaizhi turned his head and glanced at Lin Jinshen.
Shen Mianyin felt a chill down her spine when she saw the expression on Gu Huaizhi's side profile.
"Mm," Gu Huaizhi retracted his gaze and said indifferently, "We always have dinner together."
Lin Jinshen: "!!!"
He knew he shouldn't have asked!
Lin Jinshen took a deep breath and forced a smile. "I didn't expect Mianyin to be so close to Mr. Gu."
Shen Mian Yin gave two dry laughs. "We're just neighbors, haha..."
Gu Huai Zhi turned back to look at her and smiled. "That's right, we're just neighbors. Yet I've never seen you cook for anyone else."
Lin Jin Shen was shocked.
So, was it Shen Mianyin who cooked for Gu Huaizhi?
Shen Mian Yin: "..."
What exactly is wrong with Gu Huaizhi?
Caught between the two men, Shen Mianyin felt trapped and embarrassed all the way to the airport.
Upon Mr. Smith's arrival, Shen Mianyin finally breathed a sigh of relief.
With Mr. Smith present, the topic of conversation between Gu Huaizhi and Lin Jinshen finally shifted away from her.
Mr. Smith suggested going to Jincheng to take a look first.
Therefore, instead of taking Mr.Smith to check into a hotel, they went directly to Jincheng.
The car stopped in front of Jincheng's entrance. As soon as she got out, Shen Mianyin saw Mrs. Su walking towards her.
A person who usually only attended social gatherings for wives and rarely even went to the Su Corporation had now come to Jincheng, clearly coming for her.
"Mian Yin!" As soon as Mrs. Su saw Shen Mianyin, she shouted and walked towards her, wiping away tears.
Shen Mianyin looked around, suspecting that Mrs. Su had hired reporters or paparazzi to hide nearby.
Mrs. Su had indeed contacted paparazzi beforehand, arranging for them to hide in the shadows and film a scene of her tearfully begging Shen Mianyin.
From Zhou Jicai, Mr. Su learned that Shen Mianyin and Lin Jinshen were going to pick up Mr. Smith today.
As long as the contract hadn't been signed, if they put on a show in front of Mr. Smith and then spread it online,
after doing it repeatedly, they didn't believe Mr. Smith would still be willing to sign with Jincheng!
Mrs.Su grabbed Shen Mianyin's arm and cried out loudly, "Mianyin, you..."
Shen Mianyin didn't try to break free. Instead, with her free hand, she proactively grabbed Mrs.Su's arm.
Mrs. Su was taken aback by Shen Mianyin's reaction. Why wasn't she panicking at all?
She was even grabbing her?
After a couple of seconds of stunned silence, Mrs. Su decided to continue.
But Shen Mianyin didn't give her another chance to speak, saying in a low voice, "Mrs. Su, you don't want people to know that Su Yiqing needs a kidney transplant, do you?"
What?
Madam Su froze. Shen Mianyin continued, "Su Yiqing's health isn't good; she needs a kidney transplant. Do you think Madam Gu would approve of such a weak body?"
"You..." Mrs. Su's pupils trembled with shock. How did Shen Mianyin know that Su Yiqing's kidneys were failing?
"I know why you insisted on me staying in the Su family. I've always known," Shen Mianyin said softly.
"My kidney type is a match for Su Yiqing. You were worried that my work and socializing would require drinking alcohol, which would affect my ability to donate a kidney to Su Yi Qing. That's why you wanted me to resign, keep me at home, abstain from alcohol completely, and keep my kidneys healthy to donate to Su Yi Qing."
"Therefore, even though you despise me and think I've taken Su Yiqing's place and enjoyed the blessings that should have been hers, you still had to endure your disgust and insist on me staying in the Su family."
"But because you hate me and think I've taken advantage of you, you always slip up and reveal your true feelings. You hate me on one hand, but you want my kidney on the other," Shen Mianyin smiled.
"It must be so difficult for you to put on this act for me."
Mrs. Su blurted out in surprise, "How did you know!"
But as soon as she said it, she regretted it.
Didn't she just admit it?
What if Shen Mianyin had recorded it again?
Mrs. Su looked into Su Jinshi's coat pocket and her bag with a complex and cautious expression.
Shen Mianyin's lips curled up in a slight smile, clearly seeing what Mrs. Su was worried about.
"If I were to reveal that Su Yiqing is ill and needs a kidney transplant, do you think Mrs. Gu would still want Gu Luo'an to marry her?" Shen Mianyin sneered. "Mrs. Gu treasures Gu Luo'an like the apple of her eye. There are plenty of healthy young ladies from wealthy families out there. Why would she agree to Gu Luo'an marrying a sickly person with kidney problems?"
"Even if she successfully receives a transplant, do you think she'll be the same as a normal person? There will still be many things she needs to be careful about," Shen Mianyin said slowly. "Judging by that Mrs. Gu's personality, she definitely hopes her daughter-in-law will enter the family and bear children soon."
Mrs. Su's expression changed drastically, and she looked at Shen Mianyin uneasily.
Seeing the changes in Mrs. Su’s expression, Shen Mianyin said, “If you continue to cause me trouble, I will reveal this matter. I’ve already explained the consequences to you, do you understand?”
Mrs. Su looked at Shen Mianyin as if she didn’t recognize her.
Before, when she was at home, she was gentle, had a good temper, and was filial.
She always spoke to them, the couple, with a smile, and she listened to everything they said.
But now, Shen Mianyin had a cold expression and was threatening her to her face.
Mrs. Su was frightened by Shen Mianyin’s expression.
Mrs. Su silently released Shen Mianyin’s arm.
Shen Mianyin knew that Mrs. Su was afraid.
"There's one more question," Shen Mianyin asked.
"We're about to sign a contract with Kewei, and it's almost finalized. Who told you about this?"
Mrs. Su said with a cold face, "Why should I tell you!"
Shen Mianyin chuckled, "Of course it's because you don't dare to reveal Su Yiqing's poor health."
"If you don't tell me, I can still expose it," Shen Mianyin said arrogantly, even tapping her nails.
"You!" Mrs. Su gritted her teeth in anger, almost raising her hand to hit Shen Mianyin.
But she didn't dare.
Shen Mianyin sneered, "So, who told you?"
Mrs. Su, having no other choice, said, "It was Zhou Jicai."
"And what did he say about how he found out?" Shen Mianyin asked further.
