Chapter 43: You Won’t!

The outcome of this fiasco was something Han Xinyan had not anticipated.

Shen Fei was unharmed, and Zhang Gui received the punishment he deserved.

As they walked out of the Green Ti restaurant, Han Xinyan still hadn’t recovered from the shock.

The impact of the incident was just too overwhelming.

To be honest, Han Xinyan still recognized Zhang Gui’s work abilities.

Moreover, Zhang Gui was also a relative of Hu Yuantai…

She had expected Hu Yuantai might fire her because of Zhang Gui, but instead, it was Zhang Gui who was fired.

Reflecting on everything that had just happened, Han Xinyan couldn’t help but feel something was off.

But what exactly felt strange, she couldn’t figure out.

No matter how much she thought about it, she never expected that the oddity lay with Shen Fei.

It was because of Shen Fei that Hu Yuantai stood on Han Xinyan’s side and decisively fired Zhang Gui.

Unable to find the reason, Han Xinyan decided not to think about it anymore.

“Shen Fei, before you take action, think about Yueyue! What if you get arrested?”

As they stepped out of the building, a cool breeze blew over them.

Although Han Xinyan’s words were cold, her tone had softened considerably.

Noticing this change, Shen Fei was in high spirits.

“If it came to that, why would I just sit back and do nothing? I’d hire a lawyer, seize the surveillance footage from Green Ti restaurant, and sue him for defamation! As long as Zhang Gui still wants to keep his job as president and doesn’t want to ruin his reputation, he’d have to beg me to withdraw the lawsuit!”

“Of course, whether I forgive him or not depends on you. If you disagree, we’ll go ahead and sue him! Let him ruin his reputation and lose his job!”

After saying this, Shen Fei smiled wickedly and continued, “But that situation is impossible now! Zhang Gui has not only lost his job, but also got a beating! That’s enough for now, we won’t pursue it further.”

Han Xinyan was stunned upon hearing this.

She had never thought things could be handled this way.

To sue Zhang Gui for defamation, find some witnesses, and once the charge was established, Zhang Gui would face legal consequences.

In a moment, Shen Fei had even thought of a way out?

Was this the same Shen Fei, the gambling addict?

Looking at him carefully, Han Xinyan realized something had changed in Shen Fei.

Thinking back to the past, Shen Fei had fought with Zhao Yu for her at Chengyou Technology, and even used 100,000 to bail out Han Lixin. Today, he had helped resolve the issue with Zhang Gui…

Everything seemed so strange, but Han Xinyan had dismissed it as Shen Fei just trying to salvage his image for her.

But now, hearing Shen Fei’s logical response, she truly felt a difference in him.

After a long silence, Han Xinyan was the first to break the silence between them.

“You’ve paid a price too! Being detained isn’t like going on vacation.”

Saying this, Han Xinyan turned her head away.

“He bullied you! I won’t let him off!” Shen Fei said sternly.

Hearing the firmness in Shen Fei’s tone, Han Xinyan’s heart was in turmoil.

Seeing Shen Fei act like a man made her happy.

But the damage Shen Fei had caused her in the past was too deep, and she couldn’t get close to him.

“Shen Fei, I’m not worth you doing this! Don’t do it next time! What if I really am as disgraceful as Zhang Gui says?” Han Xinyan said with self-mockery.

“Ah Yan, you won’t!”

Shen Fei looked at Han Xinyan calmly and firmly.

“I know, I was bad to you before! I was a scoundrel, and you have every right to despise me! I don’t defend my past actions, but look at me now, I’ve really changed!”

“Since I was little, I’ve been an orphan. The orphanage was the place I spent the most time in. Meeting you in college was the greatest honor of my life! You didn’t abandon me because I had no parents and fought desperately, against your parents’ wishes, to marry me!”

“Ah Yan, there’s only you and Yueyue in my life! Just the fact that you married me despite me being poor shows how strong your character is! I would never doubt you! Even if you want to find another man, I’m sure you’d kick me out before doing so! It was my fault in the past, but please, Ah Yan, while you hate me, also see the changes in me, and slowly forgive me.”

Shen Fei spoke with extreme sincerity.

Han Xinyan suddenly laughed coldly.

“Shen Fei, can’t you change your words? I’ve heard this speech so many times, my ears are getting calluses!”

At her words, a bitterness flooded Shen Fei’s heart.

These were the same words he had used to beg for forgiveness after every time he abused Han Xinyan.

At first, Han Xinyan would soften her heart, but as his abuse increased, she slowly stopped believing in him.

“Alright, don’t say that anymore! Thank you for everything that happened today!”

Han Xinyan said tiredly, then took Shen Jiayue’s hand.

“Yueyue, let’s go home, okay?”

“Mom, I want to go shopping with Dad! I haven’t bought him a birthday gift yet!” Shen Jiayue struggled.

“Yueyue, be good, we’ll do it later, okay? Mommy really has something to do today.”

As she spoke, Han Xinyan immediately picked up Shen Jiayue and walked away.

“Goodbye, Daddy!”

Shen Jiayue pouted and said sadly.

Shen Fei waved at Shen Jiayue, “Be good, Yueyue!”

Looking at the backs of the mother and daughter as they walked away, Shen Fei felt a deep bitterness in his heart.

Protecting his wife and child was such a natural thing.

But for him, his wife only politely said “thank you.”

He took several deep breaths to calm his emotions.

At that moment, his phone suddenly rang.

“Mr. Jiang, thank you for what happened earlier!” After answering the phone, Shen Fei said directly.

Although he didn’t need their help inside the restaurant, since they helped, he still had to express his thanks.

“Mr. Shen, it was nothing, really!”

Jiang Tiancheng said lightly.

Then, his tone shifted, and he continued,

“Mr. Shen, do you know anything about gambling stones? There’s a batch of high-quality stones coming to the northern suburbs tomorrow, would you like to go take a look?”

Hearing this, a flash of light appeared in Shen Fei’s eyes.

Given their current status, Shen Fei was sure Jiang Tiancheng wasn’t just inviting him to the northern suburbs for no reason.

He was probably testing his sixth sense!

Shen Fei wasn’t foolish, but he didn’t mind.

Besides, thanks to Jiang Tiancheng, he suddenly remembered something important that had happened during this time in his previous life—the northern suburbs gambling stone event!

With a slight smile, Shen Fei’s tone was calm, “Sure, just pick me up at the usual place.”

“Alright!” Jiang Tiancheng quickly agreed.

……

In a shabby little house in the eastern suburb city village.

After Han Xinyan brought Shen Jiayue back to their rented place, someone knocked on the door.

“Who is it?” Han Xinyan asked cautiously.

“It’s me, Lixin!”

Hearing Han Lixin’s voice, Han Xinyan breathed a sigh of relief.

But when she saw the people outside, she was shocked.
