Chapter 402: Chapter 402 Undercurrents

Sheng Huainan’s face suddenly changed!

"What nonsense are you talking about? What does this have to do with me? Wasn’t it you who caused the scene at the winery?"

He denied it vehemently.

Yin Hehe stared at him quietly. After a long while, seeing that this man showed nothing but anger, she withdrew her gaze.

"It had better not be your doing, Sheng Huainan. I’m telling you, if your brother falls, it will be of no benefit to you!"

She reminded him in an icy tone.

Sheng Huainan was stunned. "What do you mean?"

Yin Hehe slightly lifted her eyelids, giving him another cold glance, "Have you really never thought about why we, as a couple, have always refused to acknowledge our connection with the Imperial City?"

"..."

"Imperial City, since the Xiahou Family’s fall, has reshuffled its deck. The once four great families no longer exist, and now only the Pentagon Building reigns supreme. If your brother also falls, do you think you can defend the juicy piece that is Shengshi Group?"

Yin Hehe casually laid out the current situation in front of this waste of space.

This was also the first time she had explained these things to a member of the Sheng Family.

Fortunately, to her relief, this useless fellow showed an extremely shocked and frightened expression after hearing everything.

"You... you mean to say that the Pentagon Building has always been eyeing our Shengshi Group?"

His voice even began to quiver.

Seeing that he wasn’t too stupid, Yin Hehe tossed a few photos to him.

"So, you’d better manage your family affairs well. As for us, we don’t care. Even if someone finds out your brother’s real identity, he can just go back to the Imperial City. But you, if you lose him, haha..."

"No, no!"

As the words fell, the now-enlightened fool immediately switched from his prior aggressive demeanor and hurriedly rejected her words.

"Sister-in-law, rest assured, I will handle this matter. You and my brother just focus on running the company, leave the rest to me!"

Then, he grabbed the photos from the table and turned to leave.

Those photos, damn it, were about the winery incident, and as Yin Hehe anticipated, it was she who had spread the rumor in the background.

Yin Hehe breathed a sigh of relief.

However, as he was leaving, she thought of something and stopped him.

"Keep a close watch on your sales department these days, don’t let anyone take advantage of any loopholes."

"..."

Sheng Huainan’s face went several shades paler again.

Damn it!

He was fine with indulging in the pleasures of Jiangbei, but when it came to actual work, he felt somewhat overwhelmed.

"Okay, I got it!" Still, he ultimately nodded firmly, indicating he had taken her words to heart.

He understood the principle of shared prosperity and shared loss.

Sheng Huainan left.

Yin Hehe sat in the office, sipping the coffee in front of her, feeling considerably more at ease.

At this time, it was certainly good for the Sheng Family members to unite against external pressure.

The situation, though temporarily stabilized by her declaration, was still fragile, and she knew that the crisis was far from over.

Moreover, it was very possible that by accepting Xiahou Chen and issuing this declaration, some people would see it as a clear challenge, potentially ushering in an even bigger storm.

She wondered how the man at the top would deal with it?

But as a wife and as the legal affairs director of the company, what she could do, she would endeavor to do well.

Yin Hehe was busy all morning.

When it was time to get off work, a call came from upstairs.

"Madam, the President is asking where you plan to eat today at noon?"

"Where does he want to eat?" Yin Hehe asked as she tidied up.

Chen Xiaosen scratched the back of his head upstairs, and after a long moment, looked at the man who was also about to close his laptop at his desk, and whispered into the phone, "I think his mood is pretty good today."

"Is that so?"

When Yin Hehe heard this, she couldn’t help but feel a sense of relief.

"Then let’s go eat Western food, his favorite place."

"Alright," Chen Xiaosen put down the phone cheerfully.

Sheng Siyuan indeed liked Western food, a preference that originated from when he had heart problems years ago. He had taken so much medication that it had damaged his stomach. Western foods, being mostly non-irritating and often on the sweeter side, suited him well.

So, Yin Hehe had long discovered this little secret of his.

Half an hour later, the couple arrived at the Reinecke Western Restaurant in the city’s central square.

"Why suddenly fancy Western food? Don’t you love Chinese food?" the man asked, puzzled, as he took off his suit jacket and sat down.

Yin Hehe opened the lemon water on the table and poured him a glass first.

"I’m tired of eating the same thing every day. It’s nice to change it up once in a while."

"..."

That reason was spot on.

Sheng Siyuan raised an eyebrow, took a sip from his glass, and began to look over the menu to order.

"By the way, I have something to tell you. The day for our wedding ceremony has been set by the old man. It’s going to be on the fifteenth of August, Mid-Autumn Festival."

"What?" Yin Hehe, who had just picked up her glass, almost dropped it on the floor in surprise.

How could he still remember this?

And he wasn’t just talking about it; he meant it?

Yin Hehe felt a bit at a loss.

"Husband, I mean... Do we really need to have this wedding ceremony? I don’t mind not having one, and besides, with the timing..." she said cautiously to the man.

But before she could finish, she saw him put down the menu, his handsome face darkening with seriousness.

"Do you think I’m joking with you?"

"..."

So intimidating!

Yin Hehe quickly shook her head.

"No, no, I just feel it’s not the right time. Look, we’ve just made our identities clear, and..."

"So what? Do you think I, Sheng Siyuan, would be afraid of them?" the man scoffed.

"Yin Hehe, I’ve told you over and over, you don’t have to worry about those things. Are you deaf or something?" He was so annoyed that he actually reached out to twist Yin Hehe’s ear, causing the waitstaff in the restaurant to look over in surprise.

Embarrassed and angry, Yin Hehe could only dodge and agree, her face turning red.

"Fine, fine, I agree. The fifteenth of August is a good day. Let’s settle on that day then."

"Mhm!"

Only then did the man show a satisfied expression.

"Starting from now, while your two good sisters are still around, you guys should start picking out the outfits and wedding dress. Also, I’ve already informed your brother about the family side of things. He’d better not mess it up, or I won’t let him off easy!"

"..."

Yin Hehe, listening to his domineering and commanding tone, felt both annoyed and amused.

Is this really getting married?

Or kidnapping a bride?
