Xie Linchuan stared at Shen Tianxing in astonishment, unable to comprehend how she knew about Xue Lanyi!
Shen Tianxing nervously approached Xie Linchuan.
“You need to be careful with this person. The government has no funds to invest in this project. Whoever wins the bid will be stuck with a bottomless pit.”
“It will gradually become an unfinished project. Fu Jinyan has already manipulated this bidding process. He’ll provoke you into taking the bid, then collaborate with Xue Lanyi to drain your funds!!”
Xie Linchuan: …
Shen Tianxing: Believe me, everything I’m saying is true!
“Xie Linchuan, trust me, I’m really not lying to you!” Shen Tianxing grew increasingly anxious!
She didn’t know how to explain it to him – she certainly couldn’t tell him she had been reborn!
If she did, given Xie Linchuan’s personality, he’d definitely take her to see a psychiatrist.
“Xie Linchuan, I really…”
“I believe you!” Xie Linchuan’s sudden declaration cut off her unfinished words.
“I believe you. No matter what you say, I’ll always believe you!”
Xie Linchuan pulled Shen Tianxing onto his lap.
His hand rested gently on her waist, his gaze filled with nothing but affection.

The door was pushed open by Gu Letong.
“Can you two be more discreet? That thing hasn’t been canceled yet!”
“Not everyone is as rude as you, barging in without knocking!” Xie Linchuan retorted coldly while fixing his stare on Yan Chuang.
Yan Chuang: I’m innocent! I couldn’t stop her!
“Go change in the next room. I’ll have Guan Wei bring more evening gowns. Pick one for Gu Letong too.”
“After you both change, go ahead first. We’ll meet up later.”
“Okay!” Shen Tianxing stood up.
But after taking two steps, she turned back to remind him: “Xie Linchuan, I didn’t lie to you!”
“I know!”
“Everything I said is true!”
“I know!”
“You must be careful – you can’t sign that project!”
“Don’t worry, I know what to do!”
After Shen Tianxing and Gu Letong left, Xie Linchuan tossed the “River Mouth Project” documents to Yan Chuang.
“Investigate this project yourself. And keep it quiet – check on Xue Lanyi too. See if she’s been in contact with Fu Jinyan privately!”
Yan Chuang’s jaw nearly dropped in shock. What was happening? He’d just gone to help the Gu family young lady get her car, and now these two were involved in some project?
“Xie Linchuan, she didn’t ask you to help her with something again, did she?”
“Not at all!” Xie Linchuan answered directly.
“Xie Linchuan, don’t get love brain! Have you forgotten what she said with Fu Jinyan earlier at West Tulanxia Restaurant?” Yan Chuang suddenly became alert.
“Yan Chuang!!” Xie Linchuan’s voice rose a notch.
“Xie Linchuan, she has a record! Don’t forget the pain after the wound heals!”
“Why are you so talkative?” Xie Linchuan sounded somewhat impatient.
“I’m not being talkative – I’m afraid you’ll be deceived by her again. Have you forgotten last time? If not for your family’s wealth, you would have gone bankrupt!”
Xie Linchuan wasn’t without hesitation, but this time he chose to believe Shen Tianxing one last time.
“One last time!” Xie Linchuan said lightly, as if it were nothing significant.
“What?” Yan Chuang’s face was full of question marks!”I said I’ll trust her one last time. If she lies to me, then I’ll send her and Fu Jinyan straight to hell! If she doesn’t, then I’ll marry her!”
Yan Chuang: Isn’t this extreme reversal a bit too intense!!
“Enough, I’ve made myself perfectly clear. Just handle the matter I entrusted to you properly!”
“If you keep running your mouth, I’ll immediately go to the Gu family to propose marriage on your behalf!!”
Yan Chuang: ??????
“Xie Linchuan, you’ve gone too far! Why are you dragging me down with you when you’re the one jumping into the fire pit?”
“Don’t you know how fucking terrifying that tigress Gu Letong is?”
Xie Linchuan looked at Yan Chuang and continued teasing:
“I think it’s perfect – you two are well-matched. Both of you never know when to shut up!”
“Xie Linchuan, that’s too much! I’d rather turn gay than marry that kind of woman. Aside from her gender being female, tell me where she shows any feminine traits at all?”
“Isn’t that even better?” Xie Linchuan continued provoking him.
“Just perfect – she lacks feminine traits, and you want to be gay! You two can happily pair up, and your families won’t even object!”
Yan Chuang was practically going insane!
“Fine, I’ll go handle the matter. From now on I won’t comment on your affairs. I never expected you to be so vicious as to curse your own brother with marrying a tigress!”
BANG~ The door was nearly kicked open!
Gu Letong stormed in, holding up her silver evening gown and stomping in sky-high heels over ten centimeters tall.
Shen Tianxing stood at the doorway covering her face with both hands, while Xie Linchuan immediately lowered his head and massaged his temples.
“Who did you call a tigress? Say that again!!”
Yan Chuang: Holy shit… Someone save me….
