Chapter 35

　　
There are two versions of the last part.

Believing that he had figured out the underlying meaning of Shen Xi's words, Su Hang felt a huge sense of relief. With the sudden surge of happiness in his system, Su Hang couldn't help but replay the conversation again and again. The man was in a daze, giggling until a phone call interrupted his high.

When Su Hang answered the call, he heard Li QingYuan's sonorous voice. "You're still in the company, right? Let's go out and have some drinks."

"No time. I'm going home." Su Hang immediately refused.

"Shen Xi isn't home, ah, why are you going back so early?" Li QingYuan asked.

"How do you know that?" Su Hang asked.

"If Shen Xi's at home, how can you still be in the company?" Li QingYuan warmly invited his friend: "Come out and have a drink! It won't take too much time."

Su Hang looked at his watch. Thinking that he hadn't seen Li QingYuan for quite some time, Su Hang eventually agreed.

The two men went to a clean, high-end bar with a quiet environment. Knowing that Su Hang couldn't drink any spirits, Li QingYuan ordered six bottles of beer instead. He opened two and handed Su Hang a bottle. "Here, you can drink this one. The rest are mine."

Although Su Hang's stomach is slightly sensitive, one bottle wouldn't do any harm. So Su Hang clinked his bottle to Lin QingYuan's and took a sip of his beer.

"I heard that you and your stepmother fought again today?" Li QingYuan asked.

"I have nothing to do or say to that woman!" Su Hangcorrected him with a cold voice.

"Ok, ok, I said it wrong." Li QingYuan continued. "But I still want to remind you that this isn't the time to have a falling out, ah. The Su company is balanced on a very thin string. The slightest nudge might cause it to plummet."

"I know." If it wasn't for this, Su Hang wouldn't have bothered to warn the woman and simply kicked her out. At the thought of this, Su Hang became a little fidgety. As he was loosening his tie, a soft and warm body fell on the slope of his back and pressed on one of his shoulders. Immediately after, Su Hang felt wine splash on him.

"I'm sorry, I'm so sorry! I stumbled..." A beauty with flaming red lips hurriedly apologized. A pair of small white hands fluttered on top of Su Hang's wine-soaked chest.

"Get off." Su Hang shook off the woman's hands. Disregarding the woman's embarrassed expression, Su Hang got out of his seat and went to the bathroom without giving her a single glance.

"Beauty, that guy's already married. But hey, I'm still single." Li QingYuan raised a brow.

It seems that the beauty was seen through in a second. Casually slipping off her 'embarrassed' look, the woman raised an eyebrow at Li QingYuan. "That guy was wearing a tailor-made suit and came here in a Mercedes Benz. Meanwhile, you chose to drink the cheapest beer in the entire bar and is currently wearing a cowboy t-shirt worth several hundred yuan."

"Hey, I still drive a BMW, ah." Li QingYuan took out his car keys.

"Hey, don't you know? Taobao sells 20." With a smirk, the beauty turned around and left.

"Dang..." Li QingYuan, a man who had gone to countless bars, was suddenly educated.

At this time, a wet and uncomfortable Su Hang had come back from the bathroom. He picked up his coat and told Li QingYuan he would be leaving first.
　　　
Fortunately, he only took one sip of the beer. Su Hang didn't need to call someone and drove home himself. On the way home, Su Hang thought very carefully and decided to take the initiative and talk to Shen Xi first. That last call they had made Su Hang realize that maybe, Shen Xi was actually waiting for him to approach her first.
