When Love Turns the Tables: The Mysterious Husband's Chase-Chapter 575: Buried Memories (Part 5)

"Sheng Jianan told me you’re pregnant, congratulations."

"Thank you."

After exchanging a few pleasantries with Mu Yunfan, Tang Yanqi turned her head and realized her plate had somehow filled up with quite a bit of her favorite food.

Looking across the table, there wasn’t a dish that had anything to do with eggs. Tang Yanqi didn’t think much of it and focused on eating.

When she had almost finished eating, she got up to go to the bathroom. Since she was the only woman, no one accompanied her. Sheng Jianan was about to get up, but Gu Han teased, "Bro, seriously? You’re going to follow your wife to the bathroom too?"

He teased so loudly that Tang Yanqi felt a bit embarrassed and gave Sheng Jianan a tug, signaling him to sit down. She had been here with him a few times before and was quite familiar with the place, so she didn’t need him to escort her.

Feeling confident, she headed to the bathroom, and after finishing up, she washed her hands at the sink. When she turned around, she saw Shen Jiyan standing in the corridor outside, leaning against a pillar, looking at her with a half-smile.

Tang Yanqi walked over calmly. They hadn’t seen each other for a while since she returned to Sheng Jianan’s side. Tang Yanqi spoke, "Have you found the person you were looking for?"

Shen Jiyan nodded, "Just found them."

"Congratulations."

Shen Jiyan looked her up and down, "You’ve gained a bit of weight, is it because of the pregnancy? Congratulations."

Tang Yanqi smiled and didn’t respond to his comment but asked directly, "Are you waiting here specially because you have something to say to me?"

Shen Jiyan lowered his gaze, chuckled softly for a while, "If Jianan knew you understood me so well, he’d be jealous to death."

"That’s okay, being jealous is good for mental health."

Tang Yanqi’s words were a bit playful, which made Shen Jiyan raise an eyebrow.

In front of anyone, Tang Yanqi was always calm, distant, aloof, and quiet. She didn’t have the dominance of a professional woman nor the sentimentality of a housewife.

Of course, this was how she was with outsiders. When it came to the person in her heart, everything changed.

All of Tang Yanqi’s impulses, all her irrationality, and all her sentimentality were reserved for just one person.

"Sure enough, since you’ve gone back to him, you seem more like a woman."

"Let’s talk business."

"OK, Jianan met with Shen Yao today. I’m not sure what exactly happened between you and him, or between you and Shen Yao, but I can more or less guess. My cousin has a lot up her sleeve, and for the harm she caused you, I apologize on her behalf. I can promise that she will no longer come between you and Jianan. My father cares a lot for her, so if anything happens to her, he won’t be happy, and so..."

Shen Jiyan didn’t finish his sentence, but Tang Yanqi already understood. Although she didn’t know why Sheng Jianan met with Shen Yao, since he already knew that the misunderstanding was orchestrated by Mrs. Sheng and Shen Yao, knowing him, he wouldn’t sit idly by.

Tang Yanqi didn’t want to meddle in how Sheng Jianan handled it, but now that Shen Jiyan had spoken up, she wouldn’t ignore his face-saving gesture. After all, Shen Jiyan was a benefactor to her.

"To be honest, I really don’t like Shen Yao, but I don’t exactly hate her either. In my eyes, she’s just a passerby. Rest assured, Jianan won’t do anything to her. Please also convey to her that my marriage, my man, I will protect them well. If she still wants to try something, you’ll only get face-saving grace from me once."

Tang Yanqi’s words were not pleasant, but they were fair. Shen Jiyan nodded with a smile, "All right, I’ve passed on the message. Let’s go back, otherwise, the vinegar jar will really overturn."
