231: Chapter 231 Is Someone Causing Trouble?
Shen Yan pursed his lips, said nothing, turned around, and walked directly to the dining table to sit down.
Subsequently, Shen Ya followed him and also sat down at the dining table.
The dinner Auntie Fang made was very lavish.
There was braised pork, fish, beef, chicken, and two vegetable dishes.
Shen Yan picked up his chopsticks, took a piece of braised pork, and placed it in Youyou's bowl.
Immediately after, he picked up some vegetables and placed them in Shen Ya's bowl.
"Didn't you say you were on a diet? Then eat more vegetables."
Looking at the vegetables in her own bowl, Shen Ya didn't speak, nor did she touch her chopsticks.
Seeing her half-dead appearance, Shen Yan couldn't help but get irritated.
He slammed his chopsticks onto the table with a 'snap' and asked Shen Ya, "Shen Ya! What exactly do you want?!"
Shen Ya frowned and her temper flared up too.
"Are you crazy or something? What did I say or do? Why are you suddenly yelling at me?"
Shen Yan gritted his teeth and replied, "Didn't we just argue a couple of times last night? Do you have to give me this death glare all day today?"
Hearing this, Shen Ya became even angrier.
"What do you mean, 'death glare'? I'm not your subordinate; I don't have to smile at you all day long!"
Seeing the two of them about to start arguing again, Youyou quickly said from the side, "Dad, Auntie, please stop arguing!"
Realizing the child was still nearby, Shen Yan and Shen Ya quickly took deep breaths, suppressing the anger in their hearts respectively.
"Forget it, I don't want to talk too much with you. A friend of mine wants to meet you, do you have time?"
Shen Yan originally wanted to apologize to Shen Ya and let the matter pass.
But now it seemed this matter probably wouldn't be resolved with just an apology from him.
He was never good at resolving these kinds of issues, so he resolutely decided to place this important task on Wu Ya.
Hearing that Shen Yan's friend wanted to see her, Shen Ya's face was full of surprise.
"Which friend of yours? Chen Guangke?"
Shen Yan frowned and said to Shen Ya, "He is my friend, and he is a few years older than you. Don't call him by his full name; just call him Brother Chen."
Shen Ya rolled her eyes.
"There's no one else here, so what if I call him by his full name?"
Seeing that they were about to create a new conflict, Shen Yan quickly reined himself in and stopped that topic.
"It's not Old Chen, it's another friend you haven't met, someone who has been working with me in the studio since the beginning. Oh, right, she's a woman."
As soon as she heard it was a woman, Shen Ya's expression immediately changed.
"I didn't expect that, your luck with the opposite sex has been quite good in the last six months."
Shen Yan couldn't be bothered to argue with Shen Ya about this. He rubbed his temples and asked her, "Are you going or not? If you don't go, I'll just tell her never mind."
As soon as the words left his mouth, Shen Ya replied to him, "Go, of course I'll go!"
To be honest, Shen Yan really didn't expect Shen Ya to agree so readily.
After all, in his eyes, Shen Ya always had a personality where she would do the opposite of whatever he said.
"Fine, then I'll give you her contact information. You two can communicate yourselves to arrange the time and place to meet."
Shen Ya nodded in agreement.
After that, the two of them finished the entire dinner in silence.
...
The next morning.
Shen Yan got up early and left for work.
"Beep beep beep!"
On the road, car horns sounded intermittently.
Shen Yan irritably rolled down the window and took a deep breath of fresh air.
Although he left very early that morning, he still inevitably encountered traffic congestion when leaving.
Just as he was looking out the window at the scenery, trying to soothe his road rage, he heard a very loud curse coming from beside him.
"Damn you! You actually spat gum on my window, don't you have any decency?!"
Almost the moment the words fell, he received an electronic voice notification from the tycoon system in his mind.
[Ding! Special mission triggered!]
[Please help the Chairman of the Gu Group resolve the troublemaker.]
Chairman of the Gu Group?
Where?
Shen Yan blinked and began looking around.
"This gum wasn't spat out by us."
Just as he was still searching for the Chairman of the Gu Group, he heard a deep, middle-aged man's voice from the car next to him.
Turning his head, he saw that the person who spoke was sitting in the back seat of the mercedes-benz.
The person currently arguing with this man was the owner of the BMW next to the mercedes-benz.
"Just because you say it wasn't you doesn't mean it wasn't you. It was fine just a moment ago, and as soon as you appeared, gum suddenly appeared on our car."
"I don't care, you must give us an explanation. If you don't give us an explanation, don't even think about leaving today!"
Clearly, the troublemaker the tycoon system mentioned was the owner of the BMW.
To complete the mission, Shen Yan did not follow the vehicle in front of him. He turned the steering wheel slightly and pulled over with the two cars.
Since he didn't understand the situation yet, he didn't rashly get out of the car but stood nearby, eavesdropping.
"I already said, this gum wasn't spat out by us, and we weren't even eating gum."
The BMW owner completely disbelieved them. He pointed at the gum firmly stuck on his car window and cursed at the middle-aged man, "Bullsh*t! This gum was clearly spat out from your car!"
"I'm telling you, if you don't resolve this matter today, I absolutely won't let you leave!"
The more Shen Yan listened, the more he felt something was wrong.
First, he didn't believe that the Chairman of the Gu Group would be someone who liked to chew gum in the car and spit it onto someone else's window.
Second, the BMW owner kept saying that if the matter wasn't resolved, he absolutely wouldn't let them leave.
But usually, when encountering such a situation, people would only detain the person who did such a thing on the spot and call the police, right?
Thinking this, he opened his door, got out of his car, and walked over to the driver of the Chairman of the Gu Group who was currently communicating with the BMW owner, asking, "What happened? Do you need any help?"
Hearing the question, the driver paused for a moment, then turned to look at the middle-aged man still sitting in the back seat.
Receiving his driver's glance, the middle-aged man looked up at Shen Yan and replied, "Thank you for your kindness, but we can handle this matter ourselves."
Shen Yan was not discouraged by the rejection. He just stood by the side, watching them communicate with that BMW owner.
"Then tell us how you want to resolve this matter?"
"That depends on your sincerity..."
"If you want money, we can give you some money as a cleaning fee for the car, but we still have to say that this gum wasn't spat out by us."
Just as the driver was attempting to argue logically, the BMW owner suddenly became agitated.
