Quick Transmigration: Why did you provoke him? He's love-struck!

Chapter 555 Keeping a Canary in Captivity (34)

When Xiao Yun came out of the room, his expression was somewhat subtle.

What is she after spending hundreds of millions of dollars on a sugar daddy who doesn't need her to provide sexual services?

You can't really expect to just chat with yourself under the covers, can you?

Or does she want to have a platonic relationship with him?

Thinking of this, Xiao Yun turned to look at the closed door.

While relieved that he didn't have to sacrifice himself, he also felt a strange sense of loss.

The next day, Yan Zhen slept until he woke up naturally.

Opening his eyes, Yan Zhen squinted to wake himself up as sunlight, mostly filtered through the sheer curtains, streamed in through the French windows. He reached for his phone on the bedside table.

There were several WeChat messages on my phone from Yan's parents.

Yan's mother asked her if she was going home today, while Yan's father told her to come to his office when she went to the company tomorrow.

Yan Zhen recalled Gao Shenghan's furious expression when he was thrown out yesterday, and guessed that he had gone to complain to Yan's father.

If this matter gets to the point where Yan's father finds out, then his son Gao Xinyu should also know about it.

Having mentally prepared himself, Yan Zhen got up and washed up.

When she went down to the first-floor restaurant, Xiao Yun was busy in the kitchen with the nanny.

Yan Zhen leaned against the door frame of the kitchen sliding door, listening to Xiao Yun and the nanny chatting while making breakfast, their backs to him.

After listening for a few minutes, Yan Zhen realized that Xiao Yun was instructing the nanny about her dietary preferences.

"She doesn't eat animal heads, so don't cook things like duck heads or rabbit heads. Even if you do, don't serve them. You can make her some light soups. She really likes the taste of five-finger peach..."

"Oh, right, I'll make a list later. Go to the supermarket today and buy some vegetables, clean and prepare them. I'll pickle some vegetables when I get home from get off work tonight. If I'm away filming and she lives here by herself, make her some shrimp porridge, fish porridge, or something similar, along with some side dishes."

The nanny nodded repeatedly: "Okay."

After saying that, she turned around with the washed vegetables in her hand and met Yan Zhen's gaze.

The nanny was taken aback, worried that her employer might misunderstand and think she was ordering Xiao Yun around, so she quickly explained, "Miss, Mr. Xiao insisted on helping..."

Yan Zhen raised his hand to stop her: "I know."

Xiao Yun turned around and saw Yan Zhen. He smiled and said, "Please wait five more minutes. Breakfast will be ready soon."

Breakfast was still very simple. While Yan Zhen was eating, Xiao Yun said to her in a consultative tone, "I'm going to X province to film a movie tomorrow, and I might not be able to come back for about ten days."

"So long?" Yan Zhen frowned.

Without this human hypnotic device, won't I be unable to sleep well again?

Seeing her displeasure, Xiao Yun hesitated for a moment, then said in a low voice, "I'll discuss it with the director. Will you come back every five days?"

"Never mind," Yan Zhen said. Xiao Yun was in the prime of his career, and it wasn't good for him to take so many days off. "I'll come see you when I have time."

Xiao Yun seemed surprised that she would go to such lengths for him, and said with emotion, "Then I will try my best to come back when I don't have filming commitments."

After breakfast, Lao Zhang came to pick up Yan Zhen and take her to the company.

Yan Zhen went straight to her father's office.

The father and daughter met. Yan's father quickly signed the documents in his hand, asked his assistant to close the office door when he left, and then said to Yan Zhen, "Zhenzhen, sit down."

He adopted a posture as if he wanted to have a heart-to-heart talk, and Yan Zhen knew that his guess was correct.

She sat down opposite Yan's father.

After carefully considering his words, Yan's father asked, "What happened between you and Shenghan?"

Instead of answering, Yan Zhen asked, "What did he say to you last night?"

Yan's father sighed and said, "You came back covered in injuries, which scared Xiaoyu. He said you had someone beat him up and that you forced him to divorce you... Is that true?"

The seasoned businessman, Yan's father, was clearly more rational. He didn't blindly believe Gao Shenghan's one-sided story and instead called Yan Zhen over to verify it.

“It’s fake,” Yan Zhen said. “But it’s true that I’m keeping someone on the side.”

Yan's father: "..."

He looked at his daughter, frowned, and pondered for a long time before asking, "Do you really want a divorce?"

Mr. Yan was not very supportive of his daughter's divorce. In a wealthy family like the Yan family, every move is under the scrutiny of the outside world. The marriage of the person in charge and the heir is related to the stock. If it is not handled properly, it will have a great impact on the company.

Moreover, if the news of Yan Zhen divorcing Gao Shenghan and marrying a man more than ten years younger than her were to get out, it would inevitably cause a lot of speculation.

“It’s fine if we don’t get a divorce, after all, he is Xiaoyu’s father,” Yan Zhen said. “However, I really don’t have any feelings for him anymore. As long as he behaves himself and doesn’t interfere with my family outside, I can continue to maintain our marital relationship.”

Yan's father looked at Yan Zhen in surprise, clearly unable to understand how his daughter, who used to be so responsible towards her family, had suddenly changed like this.

"Did something happen between you and Shenghan?"

Yan Zhen feigned deep silence for a while, then tactically sighed: "I just suddenly figured some things out a while ago."

"what's up?"

"I deserve a successful man, not a useless gigolo like Gao Shenghan."

Yan's father was stunned.

“Xiao Heng ran away from home and has no interest in inheriting the family business. We can’t count on him anymore. You and Mom are getting old, so I have to support this family. I’ve been married to Gao Shenghan for so many years, and his only contribution to this family is that he gave birth to Xiao Yu with me.”

"I've spent so much money on him over the years, but his business has been a complete mess, his career is a disaster, and he kept arguing with me while I was sick. That day I woke up in the hotel and found him leaving me alone there; he hadn't come home all night. That's when I gave up on him."

After thinking for a while, Yan's father said, "But you and he have had a relationship for so many years, and he took good care of you during the time you were sick..."

“Any able-bodied man could have done what he did,” Yan Zhen said. “If it was just to have someone take care of me, I’ve found someone now who takes better care of me than he did.”

Upon hearing this, Yan's father looked at his daughter and saw that her condition and complexion had indeed improved a lot recently, and she no longer looked so listless and irritable.

This change doesn't lie; it seems the daughter's heart is no longer with Gao Shenghan.

"Forget it," Yan's father said helplessly. "Whether you get divorced or not, just handle this matter well and don't cause any unsightly incidents that affect the company."

Yan Zhen breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing Yan's father's words.

"okay, I get it."

After leaving his father's office, Yan Zhen went to his own office first.

After finishing her work, she drove back to the Yan family home.

Gao Xinyu went to school, and Yan's mother and her best friend went out for beauty treatments, leaving only Gao Shenghan at home.

Yan Zhen went up to the fifth floor. Gao Shenghan, who was lying on the sofa scrolling through his phone, immediately sat up when he heard the sound of high heels.

The next moment, Yan Zhen pushed open the door and entered.
