My Toxic Ex-Wife: BOSS, Stay Away！-Chapter 692 - 674: Being Good-Looking Means Being Capricious

"You still need a female companion?"

"What are you talking about? You make me sound like a playboy."

"Aren’t you?" Lin Yixun mercilessly pointed out.

"Alright, alright, I’m a playboy. However, this time you really need to help me. Every time I bring a woman to a social event, she always gets the wrong idea about me. But you won’t. If you go with me, it will save me a lot of trouble."

If Lin Yixun went with him, not only could he avoid unnecessary romantic troubles, but he also wouldn’t attract the paparazzi. After all, Lin Yixun was previously the CEO of Lei Man and Shen Xu’s best partner. Their appearance together in public wouldn’t lead to unnecessary speculations.

"Isn’t it because our President Shen is irresistibly charming, with all those romantic encounters you can’t avoid?"

"Go ahead and belittle me. Are you going to help me or not?"

"Since President Shen has spoken, how can I not help?"

Lin Yixun thought, Shen Xu had helped her a lot in the past. Now that he’s asking her for a favor, it would be unreasonable to refuse. Anyway, attending a banquet wouldn’t take much time, and Sister Yi could take care of the hospital. She could go out for a while without any problem.

"Alright then, see you tomorrow."

The next day, Shen Xu arrived at Shengde Hospital early to pick her up. He saw her walking out of the hospital, a strange look flashing in his eyes.

"There’s news online saying that you and Leng Yixiu are getting married. Is this true?"

"Yes." Lin Yixun nodded.

"Considering how he treated you before, how can you..."

"How can I still be with him, even talking about marriage?" Lin Yixun preempted his question.

"Yes, I really don’t understand."

Having worked with Shi Yi for so many years, Shen Xu had some understanding of her. Shi Yi was always clear about love and hate. Given how Leng Yixiu treated her back then for Gu Yilin, she wouldn’t take him back.

"I have my own reasons, which I’m not at liberty to share with you. I hope you can understand." Lin Yixun said blandly.

It was Lin Yixun’s business, something she didn’t want Shen Xu to know about. The past was unbearable to recall, and the fewer people who knew, the better. Besides, knowing or not knowing her true identity wouldn’t affect Shen Xu.

"Alright, since you don’t want to tell me, I won’t ask further. You must have your reasons for choosing to be with Leng Yixiu. It’s just..." Shen Xu wanted to mention Leng Yixiu’s recent scandal with another person but hesitated. He figured Shi Yi had her own judgment and knew how to handle such things. Moreover, as an outsider, it would be inappropriate for him to meddle in such sensitive matters.

Lin Yixun didn’t ask further about Shen Xu’s unspoken words because it certainly wouldn’t be anything good.

She changed the topic, "Aren’t we going to a banquet? If we don’t leave soon, we’ll be late."

Shen Xu slapped his forehead, "If you hadn’t mentioned it, I would have almost forgotten the main event."

Shen Xu stepped on the gas pedal, heading straight to their destination. On the way, he couldn’t help but complain, "I said you’d accompany me to the banquet, can’t you at least dress up a bit?"

"Dress up?"

Lin Yixun raised her hand to loosen the hair tie on her head, letting her hair cascade down like seaweed.

She tossed her hair a bit and ruffled it casually, "How about this?"

Shen Xu was at a loss for words but had to admit, even with a casual look, she was stunningly beautiful. This way, he could even save the trouble of hiring a makeup artist.

He looked at her deeply, "In this world, perhaps only someone with your looks can afford to be so willful."
