After Being Betrayed I Married the Glamorous CEO-Chapter 309 - 307: Go away, I don’t want to deal with you!

Was it jealousy?

At this moment, even Su Xiyang herself was bewildered, unsure of her true feelings.

Since meeting Shen Fanyun, she had been resolute, setting clear boundaries and never considering him "the one" in her life, even though he was, in fact, her first man. It was this man who, during that drunken night, took the most precious thing she had. It was also he who transformed her from a girl into a woman overnight—a night that forced her to grow up. It was a night she could never forget.

However, it was also a night she couldn't bring herself to face bravely.

She always felt it was her own recklessness and irresponsibility that had led to such a consequence. Her life could have taken a completely different path. Therefore, she did her best to keep her distance from Shen Fanyun. At first, she had even tried to sever all possible connections with him, determined to treat it all as a dream to be completely forgotten.

But fate is fickle, and life plays cruel tricks on people.

Through their recent interactions, Shen Fanyun had progressively earned her admiration. At the same time, he was sincerely protecting and defending her with all his might. She was enjoying the blissful feeling of being pampered and cherished as a woman.

Shen Fanyun was a ray of light in her life, so important that without him, her world would be cast in darkness.

Thus, today's scene thoroughly upset her. They had agreed to be just ordinary friends, even if Shen Fanyun often hugged her and did those intimate things with her. But over time, he had gradually become indispensable in her life. She relied on him, cared about him, and unconsciously began wanting to possess him.

Especially in this moment, Su Xiyang witnessed with her own eyes Shen Fanyun chatting and laughing with another woman whose beauty was in no way inferior to hers.

My heart... It feels like something is stabbing it, again and again. Pain. This is real pain.

It felt as if her most cherished toy was suddenly about to be shared with someone else.

"I was just being foolish. I thought too highly of myself," Su Xiyang muttered to herself, her heart aching more with every word. "You're so outstanding and handsome. It's only normal for you to have many women around, right? As the old saying goes, beauties have always loved heroes."

"Besides, I've known for a long time that you have many women. I should have been prepared. I have no right to be jealous over you."

"I'm not someone important to you. From beginning to end, I'm just an ordinary woman you happened to pamper for a while."

"When you find someone new, an 'old' woman like me will be tossed aside."

Shen Fanyun seemed to notice something.

Lin Meiqing tactfully remarked, "She's genuinely angry, not faking it."

"This..." Shen Fanyun trailed off.

"Go on, go comfort her," Lin Meiqing gestured to Shen Fanyun. "I'll be fine. We can get together another time."

Shen Fanyun stood still, hesitating.

"I'm much older than her, and my mindset is much more stable," she continued, urging him on. "I'm long past the age of getting jealous and fighting for affection. It's fine, go take care of your business. I'll just wander around on my own. You don't need to pay me any mind."

Who wouldn't love a woman like that? She knew how to comfort people, she was skilled, and at critical moments, she could step back. She even gave me an out, preventing me from being caught in a difficult position. I'm smitten. Absolutely smitten.

"Alright." Shen Fanyun no longer hesitated and hurried to catch up with Su Xiyang.

Su Xiyang's face was grim, and she remained silent. Her several assistants and secretaries didn't dare to breathe too loudly. As she neared the entrance, a warm, large hand suddenly grabbed hers.

Su Xiyang's eyes lit up, and she was secretly overjoyed. He does care about me. As soon as I got angry, he chased right after me.

Outwardly, however, she maintained absolute composure, her tone filled with deliberate distance. "What? Are we that close?"

"Harassing me in public... believe it or not, I'll sue you!"

Shen Fanyun was speechless. Give her an inch and she'll take a mile? Isn't her temper a bit much?

"Alright, alright, what's all this about?" Shen Fanyun said, instinctively moving to give her a warm hug.

Today, Su Xiyang was wearing a qipao that perfectly and stunningly accentuated her bombshell figure.

"I don't want anything to do with you! Go away!" Su Xiyang huffed, raising a hand to block him as he tried to pull her into an embrace.

And his eyes... Hey! I'm obviously sulking, but this bastard isn't even looking at my face. Why is he looking down there?

"You look truly stunning today," Shen Fanyun complimented.

Su Xiyang pouted. "None of your damned business." 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦

Shen Fanyun was at a loss for words.

"Su Xiyang, you're going too far."

"Hmph." Su Xiyang couldn't be bothered with him and turned to head for her car. Shen Fanyun rubbed his nose and helplessly followed.

Once in the car, Su Xiyang immediately turned her head away to stare out the window, pointedly ignoring Shen Fanyun. Her sulking expression was actually rather adorable.

"She's actually... also a person with a tough life," Shen Fanyun muttered to himself.

Su Xiyang pretended not to care, but she was all ears. When she learned this was Jiajia's mother, her eyes widened.

Wait, have I seen her before? I can't quite remember... Oh well, that's not important.

"You really have a voracious appetite, don't you? Feasting on every delicacy... you won't even spare someone's mother," Su Xiyang gritted her teeth.

Is he some kind of animal? He takes whatever comes his way. Indulging like this... isn't he afraid of ruining himself at such a young age?

Shen Fanyun corrected her, "What are you talking about? With which eye did you see me 'taste' her?"

Are you kidding me? There's no way I can admit to something like that. I have to deny it to the end. Even if I did it, I have to pretend I didn't.

"Then why were you so intimate?" Su Xiyang didn't believe his nonsense for a second. The words of an old lecher were the least trustworthy, especially Shen Fanyun's! This guy was decent in other respects, but when it came to women, he was a repeat offender. Trusting his explanation was as likely as the sun rising from the west.

Furthermore, Lin Meiqing's attitude toward Shen Fanyun was clearly not that of an ordinary friend. Those two definitely had something going on.

"Forget it. Be with whoever you want. Why should I care? Who am I? I'm Su Xiyang."

"Hmph. You have no idea how many men are chasing me. I have all the energy and time in the world to pick and choose," Su Xiyang muttered with her arms crossed.

Shen Fanyun was amused. "Don't be angry, don't be angry."

"I just ran into her by chance. How about I join you for a meal today? Is there any restaurant you want to go to? I'll take you," Shen Fanyun said, trying to both soothe her and change the subject.

"Who's in the mood? I'm looking over company business."

"But... it's nice that you're here with me." Su Xiyang's body softened, and she snuggled into Shen Fanyun's embrace, her expression showing deep weariness and fatigue.

She's run into trouble.

"Did some blind fool mess with you again?" Shen Fanyun asked, gently rubbing Su Xiyang's head.
