246: She found out.

Si Yang quickly became the focus of countless gazes.

The person maintaining order couldn't help but sigh; it really was this troublemaker!

"Sir, please do not incite the emotions of the crowd present."

"Please trust us, we will give everyone an explanation!" an impeccably dressed middle-aged man said, looking at Si Yang with a serious tone.

"Is telling the truth considered inciting?" Si Yang blinked and asked, puzzled.

Trying to label him like that was still a bit beyond them.

Shen Leyu couldn't help but tug at Si Yang's arm, telling the guy to stop talking nonsense!

Since ancient times, commoners do not fight with officials.

Not to mention that Si Yang was just an ordinary citizen.

Just then, a car stopped, and the figure of a middle-aged man appeared, followed by a secretary and bodyguards.

Seeing the newcomer, Si Yang couldn't help but want to retreat.

Little did he know, Li Zhendong had already spotted him.

As someone about to succeed as the top leader, becoming a true high-ranking official and potentially entering the central government in the future, Li Zhendong was highly influential. However, this was a critical moment; at the very least, no mishaps could occur.

Otherwise, it might cast a shadow over his political career.

The difference between taking this step forward and not taking it would result in two completely different futures.

"Aren't you supposed to be at work? Messing around here all day long," Li Zhendong said irritably, glancing at Si Yang.

At that moment, the impeccably dressed middle-aged man stumbled forward toward Li Zhendong.

Even though the weather wasn't that hot yet, his forehead was covered in sweat.

"Mayor Li!" the well-dressed fellow said respectfully.

"Solve problems when you encounter them; don't always think about covering things up."

"The government should have credibility. When something happens, the first priority is to restore the truth and tell the public the truth, not cover it up. Such practices will cause the government to gradually lose its credibility. Don't you understand such a simple principle?" Li Zhendong said coldly.

"Yes, exactly. That's the logic," Si Yang nodded solemnly from the side.

"Why haven't you gotten lost? What kind of mess are you adding to here? You've turned yourself from a spectator into the protagonist; is that fun?" Li Zhendong said to Si Yang, annoyed.

"I bought a house here, okay?" Si Yang retorted upon hearing this.

However, he noticed Shen Leyu beside him looking at him with a face full of shock, disbelief, a hint of sadness, and a bit of trepidation.

Then, without waiting for Li Zhendong to speak, Shen Leyu pulled Si Yang away.

"Hey, don't pull me! We haven't finished talking about our house yet!"

"It's not important anymore," Shen Leyu said with an indifferent tone.

Seeing this, Si Yang could only follow Shen Leyu into the car.

"Si Yang, have you always thought I was a joke?" Shen Leyu looked at Si Yang with a serious expression.

"Why do you suddenly say that?" Si Yang blinked.

"You know that person from just now," Shen Leyu said softly.

"I do!" Si Yang didn't deny it. By the time she asked the question, Shen Leyu already knew the answer.

Li Zhendong wouldn't speak to just anyone in that tone.

"You?" Shen Leyu pointed at Si Yang, momentarily unsure of where to begin.

"So the previous difficulties were solved by you, and my company's cooperation with so many others was also thanks to your help, right?" Shen Leyu asked with reddened eyes.

"Hey, don't cry!"

"I did help you solve that matter. As for the partnerships, I only put in a word with the Rong Family; the rest was your own hard work," Si Yang said seriously.

"Hard work? My ass! After partnering with the Rong Family, so many people came rushing to me. Do you know? I didn't have to go out and look for them; I had to filter which partner was better."

"I thought, I thought..."

"I didn't expect it was all you," Shen Leyu said with her eyes red.

"Being moved is one thing, but let's not cry!" Si Yang said helplessly.

"A woman's tears shouldn't flow on her face!" Si Yang said in a very serious manner.

"Then where should they flow?" Shen Leyu asked subconsciously.

"I'll beat you to death, you shameless jerk!" Shen Leyu pummeled Si Yang irritably.

"Hey, don't hit me, don't hit me! You can't repay kindness with enmity!" Si Yang felt a bit wronged.

Shen Leyu looked at Si Yang, wanting to laugh but holding it back.

"When I told you how hard I worked and how much money I made, were you secretly laughing at me in your heart?" Shen Leyu asked, looking at Si Yang.

"I swear I absolutely wasn't. Besides, I'm just a food delivery guy; what right do I have to laugh at you?" Si Yang said very seriously.

"If you mention being a delivery guy again, I'll jump out right now," Shen Leyu said angrily.

"Generally speaking, at this height, you probably wouldn't even sprain your ankle." Si Yang glanced around; the car was started, but it hadn't moved!

Shen Leyu almost died of anger upon hearing that.

With a slight movement of her leg, the car lunged forward.

"How about now?" Shen Leyu asked.

"Better not now. If you really jump, you'll lose your life," Si Yang laughed dryly.

"Then why don't you tell the truth?" Shen Leyu looked at Si Yang.

Could a food delivery guy get the Rong Family to personally step in and support her, Shen Leyu?

Could a food delivery guy speak to Li Zhendong in that tone?

"What do you want to know?" Si Yang asked.

"What exactly do you do?" Shen Leyu asked.

"I deliver food," Si Yang said very seriously.

"I swear!" Shen Leyu almost died of anger.

"Hey, don't be impulsive. Profession-wise, I really am a delivery guy. I was bored and didn't know what to do, so I started delivering food."

"Actually, it's nothing much. I just know a few more people than most; it's nothing special."

"As for money, I really don't have any," Si Yang spread his hands and said helplessly.

"Then what about her?" Shen Leyu couldn't help but ask.

"Same as you!" Si Yang said.

"She runs a company?" Shen Leyu asked cautiously.

"Yeah. You know Mengwan Technology, right?" Si Yang said helplessly.

"Nonsense, anyone in the Central Sea business world knows it, okay? It's the company that has risen the fastest in the past year; its market value changes every day!"

"It's all your fault, you bastard. How did I say those things back then?" Shen Leyu covered her face. Thinking about it now, she felt incredibly embarrassed.

"Well, you can take them back. I can act like I didn't hear them!" Si Yang said solemnly.

"I really want to beat you to death," Shen Leyu said irritably.

"What do we do now?" Shen Leyu blinked and looked at Si Yang.

This bastard, although he hid things from her, he really had been helping her silently. Besides, she couldn't bear to leave him; she was just purely ashamed and angry, feeling extremely embarrassed when she thought of what she had said to Si Yang.

"Now, of course, we go back to get the down payment back!" Si Yang said as if it were the most natural thing in the world.

Shen Leyu took a deep breath. This bastard, was she talking about that?

"I mean, what about us?"
