Chapter 1363: Sharp-Tongued Tsundere Entertainer & Super Rich Wife with an Inferiority Complex 39

~7 min read 1,300 words

Shen Shi strode over, his icy aura making people shiver.

Shen Shi slammed the folder hard onto Zheng Song, and a cold voice rang out: "You came all this way just to break up my marriage."

Zheng Song: "No!"

He was a little panicked, hurriedly explaining, "I just think he's not suitable to be your husband; with all those scandals before, don't you care?"

"Someone like him, a little entertainer, will stop at nothing to climb up."

Jin Chen let out another muffled groan, as if stimulated by those words, covering his ears and weakly leaning against the sofa, his handsome face showing endless discomfort.

"I didn't... You're being excessive, how can you doubt me like this... I clearly don't even know you."

His low voice filled with grievance, Jin Chen again bitterly reached out to Shen Shi, "Wife, don't believe him."

"His words are so scary, they make me feel awful."

Shen Shi took his hand and sat down, gently patting Jin Chen's shoulder, "Don't be afraid, I won't believe him."

Jin Chen then relaxed his breath, sighing self-reproachfully, "If I had tried harder, it wouldn't have come to... being scolded on the head by an assistant."

Shen Shi frowned, his tone of pity completely different from before, gently cupping his handsome face to soothe, "It's not your fault, don't doubt yourself."

Suddenly ignored, Zheng Song: "???"

"You damn two-faced person! Where's your aura just now?"

Not wanting to deal with the suddenly hysterical Jin Chen at all, Zheng Song's dissuasion continued.

In earnest, "Shi, I know you don't understand what true love is, but it definitely wouldn't be someone like Jin Chen; you should be able to tell that."

Shen Shi: "Zheng Song, you're an assistant, don't overstep."

"I don't like people who overstep."

Zheng Song blinked, "But we..."

"I know, you saved me."

Shen Shi took a check from the tea table drawer, indifferently pushed it over, "5 million, enough to solve your current predicament."

"Take the money and get lost."

Jin Chen leaned against Shen Shi's back, silently curling his lips, making a shooting gesture at Zheng Song.

"Not worthy enough, not worthy enough."

Zheng Song: "..."

A strong sense of humiliation welled up in his heart.

Since his family went bankrupt, Zheng Song's self-esteem has become extremely sensitive; it's not that he can't borrow money, he just can't bring himself to lose face.

Those former good brothers who once had to treat him with respect have all become arrogant, looking down on him completely!

Even when he suddenly applied to be Shen Shi's assistant, he did so with the idea of taking him down, only reluctantly joining the group.

Now that he had the money in hand, Shen Shi still humiliated him severely.

Jin Chen remarked, "This is just the beginning."

He shifted forward, then embraced Shen Shi from behind, his chin resting in the crook of his neck, gently rubbing, his low tone still filled with grievance.

"Wife... could it be that he came all this way just to humiliate me, then take the money and leave?"

"It's great that he knew you before and even saved you; I'm so jealous."

Shen Shi's mouth twitched slightly; it was rare to see Jin Chen so... weak and bullyable.

"I have to admit, he's quite endearing."

"Don't worry, he won't appear in our lives from now on."

"Peace that can be bought with money is the most cost-effective."

Shen Shi glanced at Zheng Song, who still wanted to say something, and forced him to shut up.

"Butler, see the guest out."

"No need! I'll leave myself."

Zheng Song looked at Shen Shi with an inscrutable gaze, disappointment nearly spilling from his eyes, "I originally thought you were different from others."

"You also think you can just pay me off, like shooing a dog, right?"

Youyou spoke up faintly, his sharp tongue unchanged, "So high and mighty, if you're capable, don't take the check."

"And you're gripping it so tight! Afraid someone will snatch it!"

Zheng Song: "..."

He gritted his teeth, storming off angrily, as if his lifetime's self-esteem had been utterly shattered.

"【Ah~ What a thoroughly satisfying showdown.】"

"0731 rolled on the floor laughing, 【It's proven, tea art is great! I've really learned it!】"

Jin Chen sat up straight, composed, not forgetting to educate his child.

"【Don't learn everything; if the data goes bad, no one will fix it for you.】"

"Really heartbroken?" Shen Shi wasn't unaware that Jin Chen was acting, but Zheng Song's words were truly harsh.

"Mm-hmm."

Jin Chen tilted his head, finished the last sip of tea in the cup, "I didn't hear what he was saying."

"Tortoise chanting scriptures—what's there to listen to!"

"I've noticed your acting has improved lately." Shen Shi glanced at him amusedly, "Playing the pitiful one is quite convincing."

"Hmph, if it weren't for you being so popular, I wouldn't have come to this."

Jin Chen raised his hand to gently pinch Shen Shi's chin, leaned in to kiss him, and sighed, "Shen Shi, you really attract bees and butterflies."

Shen Shi: "..."

"Nonsense! You're slandering me."

His social circle couldn't be any smaller.

There is, I don't care.

Jin Chen clung to the cushion, huddled in the corner of the sofa, his voice trembling as he lowered his head, as if he had suffered a great injustice.

Having already come inside and made yourself at home, today you even have a little assistant mocking me—who knows what sort of demons and monsters will show up tomorrow.

He deliberately avoided looking at Shen Shi, even though his face clearly said 'come console me.'

Shen Shi sighed helplessly, moved over and knelt beside Jin Chen, saying, 'Jin Chen, are you jealous?'

This kind of experience feels rather novel; Shen Shi felt his heart go soft and tingly, being cared for enough to love is what makes one jealous.

Isn't it obvious? How about it, do you really want me to go to the kitchen and drink a pot?

Jin Chen gave him a proud, tsundere look, then quickly withdrew his gaze.

I'll console you, don't be jealous—I won't like anyone else.

Shen Shi knelt in Jin Chen's embrace, his lower back unsupported; Jin Chen instinctively wrapped his arms around him, looking as if he were eagerly awaiting something.

To be honest, Jin Chen always says he's being coquettish, but Shen Shi really doesn't know how to deliberately act coquettish; he bit his lip, thought for a few seconds, and as he leaned in, his reddened lips were brushed, lightly grazing Jin Chen's Adam's apple, the exhaled breath scorching.

Jin Chen's eyes were deep and smiling, his arms possessively tight, holding Shen Shi captive in his embrace.

Unaware that danger was approaching, Shen Shi remained immersed in 'consoling'; seeing no reaction from the kiss on his Adam's apple, he blankly lifted his eyes to glance at Jin Chen.

Jin Chen curled the corner of his mouth, pressed his thumb against Shen Shi's lips, and said, 'My love, is this how I usually console you?'

But at this moment, Shen Shi straddled Jin Chen's legs, completely enveloped in his embrace, unable to make any other move.

If he wanted to continue, Shen Shi first had to act coquettish and beg for release.

He understood Jin Chen's meaning all too well; Shen Shi blushed, then kissed the corner of Jin Chen's mouth, saying, 'Let me go first.'

Jin Chen shook his head. 'I don't know who you're talking to.'

Shen Shi stared, head tilted, not quite grasping the meaning. 'Jin Chen, don't mess around.'

'You're so unfamiliar, then just get off.'

Jin Chen made a motion to let go, reaching for the cushion Shen Shi had tossed aside; only then did Shen Shi react, hastily grabbing Jin Chen's hand, 'Don't…'
