25: Chapter 25 Chen Ling's Warning

At the same time, Youyou was also calling him from behind.

"Daddy! I've finished ordering!"

Shen Yan composed himself, turned back with a smile, and said: "Coming!"

On the other side, Chen Ling angrily threw her cell phone onto the floor after the call was hung up.

From behind her, a pair of hands wrapped around her.

"What's wrong? Why are you so angry?"

Chen Ling closed her eyes and leaned into the man's embrace behind her.

"It's all because of that Shen Yan."

The man let out a light snort, his tone full of disdain.

"That loser dares to contact you?"

Chen Ling told him about Youyou's situation.

As she spoke, she suddenly felt uneasy and picked up the phone she had thrown on the ground.

"No, I need to find someone to investigate what he's been up to lately."

The man frowned in confusion: "Isn't that overkill? Didn't he just call you?"

Chen Ling shook her head while finding someone: "You don't understand. Since he has the nerve to tell me he'll fight for custody, he must have done something recently!"

The man shrugged and said no more.

...

"Daddy, these fries are so delicious! I want another serving!"

Seeing Youyou's mouth stuffed full,

Shen Yan smiled at her cuteness. He raised his hand and wiped the ketchup from the corner of Youyou's mouth with his thumb.

"One serving of fries is enough. If you eat more, you'll get a stomach ache tonight."

Youyou pursed her lips, dissatisfied: "But I rarely get to eat fries. I want another serving!"

Shen Yan patiently explained: "But if you eat two servings of fries, your tummy will hurt tonight. Do you want your tummy to hurt?"

Youyou thought for a moment and shook her head.

"Then forget it."

After they finished their burgers and fries, they continued playing at the amusement park.

When evening came, Shen Yan took Youyou back to the villa.

At the villa entrance, Youyou was twisting around beside Shen Yan.

"Daddy, can't you stay here and keep me company?"

Shen Yan squatted down to be at eye level with Youyou. He touched her cheek and asked, "You don't want Daddy to leave, do you?"

Youyou nodded aggrievedly.

Seeing this, Shen Yan felt terrible inside.

"Then do you want to live with Daddy?"

As soon as the words left his mouth, Chen Ling rushed out of the villa.

"Dream on! Youyou will only stay with me!"

Having not seen Chen Ling for a long time, she was still as beautiful as ever.

Shen Yan pursed his lips, stood up from the ground, and said to Chen Ling: "Whatever happened in the past, you are the child's mother after all. I don't want to argue with you."

"But, I am Youyou's father. Visiting her is my right, and you cannot stop me."

Chen Ling sneered, walked over, and pulled Youyou behind her.

"Shen Yan, Youyou is the child I carried for ten months and gave birth to. She is mine!"

"If you want to live like a beggar, go ahead, but don't drag my child into it!"

Youyou was frightened by Chen Ling's tone and burst into tears.

"Mommy, I want Daddy, woo-woo-woo!"

Chen Ling turned and glared at Youyou.

"What do you want? You're going to have a new daddy soon!"

Youyou sat on the ground kicking her feet and crying loudly, "I don't want it! I don't want a Star Daddy, I only want Daddy!"

Shen Yan couldn't help but speak up.

"Chen Ling, I am talking to you civilly. If you want to start a new family, then give Youyou to me. I have the ability to take good care of her."

Chen Ling didn't speak to him again. She directly picked up Youyou and returned to the villa.

Watching their retreating figures, Shen Yan felt an indescribable emotion in his heart.

Clearly, in the past, they were also a loving family of three.

When did Chen Ling become so unfamiliar to him?

Forget it.

Since Chen Ling was unjust, he shouldn't be blamed for being unrighteous.

Looking at the brightly lit villa, he turned resolutely and left.

Time passed quickly, and another week went by.

Today was the day for the meeting with Hengtian Company.

This software was developed jointly by Shen Yan, Wu Ya, and Chen Guangke.

So Shen Yan brought both of them along.

"Wow! This is Hengtian Company!"

Seeing Wu Ya's sparkling eyes, Chen Guangke snorted: "Can you stop looking like a country bumpkin visiting the city? We'll have offices this big in the future too!"

Shen Yan couldn't help but laugh.

"Stop teasing her. Weren't you the same way the first time you came?"

Chen Guangke became embarrassed and poked Shen Yan with his elbow.

"Can you stop undermining me so much?!"

Wu Ya laughed heartily and explained: "It's not that I haven't seen a company this big. I'm just very curious about Hengtian Company."

"When I first started working, Hengtian Company was the ceiling I couldn't reach. I always wanted to work at their company, so..."

A sense of crisis immediately arose in Shen Yan's heart.

"Don't tell me you're planning to jump ship to their company right after this meeting?"

Wu Ya glanced at him, said nothing, and walked into Hengtian Company.

Shen Yan followed anxiously.

After this period, he realized Wu Ya's ability was very strong.

Not only was her architecture excellent, but her innovation ability was also very high.

He really didn't want to lose this strong asset.

Upon entering the company, the secretary led them to the conference room.

When they arrived, the others were not there yet.

"Not bad, this conference room is much bigger than the last one we were in."

Wu Ya sat in a chair, expressing disappointment: "Can't you have a little more ambition? Stop acting like a country bumpkin!"

Chen Guangke felt a sting in his eyes and started bickering with her again.

The two went back and forth, enjoying their argument immensely.

Shen Yan didn't stop them either, just watched the show from the side.

Just as they were getting more excited in their debate, someone arrived.

The people who arrived were Old Bai and the young man from before, Bai Yu.

"You arrived so early?"

Shen Yan nodded, signaling Wu Ya and Chen Guangke to quiet down.

Originally, they thought the meeting could start once everyone was present, but unexpectedly, after Old Bai and Bai Yu sat down, there was no intention of starting the meeting.

Shen Yan and Chen Guangke exchanged a look. Shen Yan asked Old Bai: "CEO Bai, aren't we starting yet?"

Old Bai shook his head and pointed toward the conference room door.

"Someone else hasn't arrived yet."

Speak of the devil.

As soon as the words fell, Sun Yang walked in from outside with his secretary.

"Sorry to keep you waiting. Let's start now."

When Shen Yan saw him, he immediately understood why Sun Yang was here.

Sun Yang was here to choose between his software and Bai Yu's software.

The meeting began, and Bai Yu went up first to present the PPT.

Before presenting, he distributed a document to everyone.

This document detailed the framework of their software and its future innovative aspects.

Shen Yan flipped through a few pages and stopped reading.

"The document in your hands contains our latest ideas and the current framework for our software. We have already decided that the direction for the software will be workplace-oriented."

"Now everyone has to go to work, and going to work definitely requires clocking in. Our software matches the needs of all companies."
