Chapter 935: 935
An Xiaxia’s voice was soft and her eyes clear and innocent .
Sheng Yize forced a smile . “Yes . ”
“I’ll go with you, then . ” An Xiaxia was mindful of the company’s overall interests, and knew she should give top priority to the general situation now .
Sheng Yize let out a breath of relief and talked An Xiaxia into going to bed early .

The next day .
Sheng Yize drove An Xiaxia to Ye City himself .
In order to stall for as long as he could, he came up with all sorts of excuses, postponing their supposed meeting with the “business partner . ”
On the third day, An Xiaxia became suspicious . “Sheng Yize, do they have such a low opinion of the Song Group? Plus, you came here yourself; they should at least show the president of Shengshi some respect, shouldn’t they?”
Sheng Yize realized that he couldn’t continue stalling any longer . He went out to the balcony to make a phone call and came back with the news: “There’s a banquet tomorrow . The Xu Group will be there . ”
“Great . I’ll be the face of the company tomorrow and you do all the talking . ” An Xiaxia looked relieved . She then remembered something . “Ah, I’m going to make a video call to Cola and Pepsi…”
Sheng Yize took her hand . “That can wait . Go pick a dress first . ”
“Why, anything will do! I’m not there to be pretty!”
Sheng Yize wouldn’t have it and said with a straight face, “You’re my wife, and in a way, you represent me . I don’t care if I’m wearing a sweatshirt, shorts, and slippers, but you need to put on something pretty . ”
An Xiaxia didn’t know whether to laugh or cry . “Alright . ”
Sheng Yize then took her shopping for the entire afternoon and bought her quite a few outfits . After they got back to the hotel, An Xiaxia took a shower . When she came out, Sheng Yize pinned her to the washstand .
She cried out in surprise, “What are you doing?”
Sheng Yize answered that question with action…

It went on until past midnight, and An Xiaxia was too tired to even move a toe . She fell asleep immediately .
Sheng Yize tucked her in, sat up, and opened his WeChat .
Grandma Sheng had sent him some photos . Pepsi had been undergoing treatment in the past few days and wouldn’t eat properly . She looked much thinner than before .
Caressing Pepsi’s bright eyes in the pictures, Sheng Yize sighed heavily .
An Xiaxia mumbled in her dreams, “Pepsi…”
“Pepsi’s doing very well…” Sheng Yize replied, then smiled bitterly .
He was only deceiving himself as well as the little dummy beside him .

The next day .
Sheng Yize took An Xiaxia to the banquet .
The event was attended by distinguished personages in the business circle and social elites . Such an atmosphere wasn’t to An Xiaxia’s liking, and Sheng Yize had told her that that so-called Mr . Xu hadn’t arrived yet, so she simply found herself a quiet corner and watched Sheng Yize socialize, propping her chin up in her hands .
He didn’t talk much, but could always get straight to the heart of the matter with unique point of views . He might look aloof and distant, but if he chose to, he could strike up a conversation with just about anyone .
“Xiaxia, you love Sheng Yize very much, don’t you?” A female voice rang out at that moment, which surprised An Xiaxia . Turning around, she saw that a woman in a red dress and heavy makeup had sat down next to her when she wasn’t looking .
It was Lan Yu .
She was as quiet as a ghost and An Xiaxia didn’t even know when she had arrived .
“Miss Lan…” An Xiaxia greeted her .
Lan Yu smiled at her, then darted a glance at Sheng Yize in the distance . “He’s indeed a remarkable man . It’s only normal that you would fall in love with him . ”
An Xiaxia smiled back, but didn’t want to say anything .
“What a pity . You love him so much, but what about him? Does he genuinely care for you? I don’t think so . ” Lan Yu caressed her fingernails and said in a casual voice, “I think Sheng Yize’s too good an actor for you to tell what he really thinks of you . ”
