Chapter 16 : But I'm Married

  • Shen Sicen glanced at her, realizing that the young girl was quite filial.
  • With this doubt put to rest, it seemed like it was just a coincidence.
  • It was normal for children to mistake people or throw tantrums.
  • When Shen Sicen mentioned Lin Wancheng's family, he casually asked, "What do your family members do?"
  • Thinking about Lin Desheng and Qin Yun, Lin Wancheng didn't want to admit that they were her family, and she didn't want to bring up her grandmother in the hospital either.
  • "It's nothing..."
  • She lowered her gaze and muttered.
  • Shen Sicen stopped halfway through signing his name and looked at her again.
  • She was hesitant, but it didn't seem like shyness.
  • "What's wrong? Do you have a boyfriend?"
  • "No..." Lin Wancheng pondered for a more accurate response, "But I'm married."
  • "Whoosh!" The pen made a sudden, jarring crack on the paper, leaving an unsightly ink stain.
  • His relaxed heart suddenly tightened, and Shen Sicen's pupils contracted.
  • "What did you say?!"
  • "I said I'm already married."
  • Although this marriage was inexplicable, and she hadn't even met her so-called husband yet, according to the paperwork, she was indeed a married woman.
  • "Lin Wancheng!" Shen Sicen slammed the pen heavily on the table. "Then why did you write 'unmarried' on your employment information?"
  • She had only held a wedding ceremony with the Shen family, and she hadn't even processed any documents with her so-called husband. Her household registration clearly stated that she was unmarried.
  • To be honest, this marriage meant nothing to her, and she would often forget about it. So when she filled out the employment information, she casually wrote 'unmarried'.
  • "Don't worry, I won't ask for paid marriage leave."
  • Shen Sicen was surprised. She still had the mood to joke? Was he angry because of the marriage leave these past few days?
  • "You're so undisciplined and unfaithful, what's the difference between you and...? You're married and still fooling around!"
  • Fooling around? What did she do? Fool around with him?
  • Lin Wancheng wasn't someone with a good temper, and being spoken to in such a derogatory manner naturally made her angry.
  • "How dare you say that about me? Don't you have any responsibility in that matter? I was drunk at the time, what about you? You should bear the main responsibility! Did you even ask if I was married when you took me back to the hotel? It's unreasonable!"
  • Shen Sicen's eyes flashed with coldness, as if he could strangle her at any moment, which sent a chill down her spine.
  • But what was there for her to be afraid of? She didn't do anything wrong.
  • "And Mr. Shen! If you don't mention it, I would have forgotten. I wasn't married when I met you that day, so don't falsely accuse me!"
  • Not only that time, what about after that? She was always in front of him, catching his attention. Didn't any of that count?
  • But even he found it inexplicable and couldn't put it into words.
  • It felt like a heavy stone weighing on his heart, making his breathing difficult.
  • Seeing Shen Sicen remain silent, Lin Wancheng glared at him fiercely and stormed out of the office.
  • She returned to her own office, her little face still filled with anger, and she felt a bit wronged by his terrifying anger.
  • The supervisor noticed something was wrong and approached her with concern. "Oh, what happened? Did the CEO scold you, Wancheng?"
  • "Who knows what's wrong with him!" Lin Wancheng pouted and cursed, "He's bringing up something from so long ago and holding it against me! Is he settling scores or looking for trouble?"
  • The supervisor comforted her and patted her back. "Alright, don't be angry. You know the CEO's temper. But what exactly happened? Is it because of the project this morning?"
  • "Just..." Lin Wancheng hesitated, quickly closing her mouth tightly, not uttering another word.
  • It was about the incident where she slept with him and he didn't pay her!
