The next morning, Fu Yancheng's plane landed in the imperial capital.
He didn't ask anyone else to pick him up, nor did he leave with Xie Feng. Instead, he called Sheng Mian.
"I've arrived at the airport? Can you pick me up?"
He asked Fang if it was inconvenient, but his tone was full of urging, asking her to come quickly.
But Sheng Mian didn't answer the call. She was having a meeting in the conference room at the moment, and the phone was left at Zhuang Wan's place.
When Zhuang Wan heard his tone, she felt angry. Why should it be so natural?
Her tone also became much colder.
"Mr. Fu, Mr. Sheng is in a meeting, and the meeting will last until noon."
Fu Yancheng's eyebrows furrowed, feeling a little disappointed, but he didn't say anything.
He had no choice but to ask Qi Shen to come pick him up, but Wen Sihe called him midway and asked him if he knew about the rumors in the circle.
"What rumor?"
"It's about Shengmian. It's said that she had a first love."
Fu Yancheng froze, his eyes darkening, "Who said that?"
"I don't know, everyone is spreading the rumor. Moreover, during the two days when you were abroad, Sheng Mian checked into a hotel outside. She didn't go back to Shanxiao or go to the company for two days. I heard that she was meeting her first love."
Fu Yancheng's grip on the phone tightened instantly, "Who is spreading rumors?"
"Yancheng, how do you know it's a rumor? Bai Jing's side has given evidence of booking a room. I also called the hotel. She did stay there for two days. Who doesn't know that her company has been very busy recently, and she and Du
Fang Fei is so upset over there, how come she has time to stay in the hotel for two days?"
Fu Yancheng's tone became colder and he also warned Wen Sihe.
"You can't believe Bai Jing's words."
"Yancheng, if you can believe Bai Jing's words, you will know if you ask Sheng Mian yourself."
After hanging up the phone, Fu Yancheng raised his hand and rubbed his eyebrows.
He had stayed up for two nights, and there was no time to catch up on the jet lag, so there was a trace of exhaustion between his brows and eyes.
"Qi Shen, drive to Sheng Mian's company."
Qi Shen glanced at him in the rearview mirror and nodded slowly.
Fu Yancheng went to the top floor of S.M Company and entered Sheng Mian's office minding his own business.
When the people at the top saw him coming, they were all talking about it, but no one dared to show it too obviously.
Zhuang Wan had already entered the conference room at this time and was standing next to Sheng Mian. No one reminded Sheng Mian that Fu Yancheng had already arrived.
I stayed up all night last night, worrying about what to do with the marks on my body.
I was pulled over for another meeting this morning.
By the end of the three-hour meeting, she felt exhausted.
There is a small lounge in her office with a double sofa, but there is no bed. If she is too tired, she can lie down on it.
When she entered her lounge, she didn't notice a man sitting in the corner.
Sheng Mian was in a daze at the moment, always thinking about what to do with these marks.
She was restless and felt extremely embarrassed and aggrieved.
Sitting down on the sofa, she took off her work jacket, and suddenly received a hug from behind.
Fu Yancheng's breath immediately enveloped her, holding her completely in his arms.
This posture makes women feel safe.
But she remembered the eye-catching marks on her neck and was so frightened that she quickly put on her clothes.
Fu Yancheng rested his chin on her shoulder and said in a calm tone, "I'm so tired. I haven't rested for two days, and I don't have time to catch up on the jet lag. Why don't you even have a bed in the lounge?"
Sheng Mian froze and didn't dare to move, fearing that he would get angry the next second and slam the door.
The two of them had just revealed their feelings for each other. It took a lot of effort for her to muster up the courage to take this step, but she couldn't bear to be left behind.
Just like when Lin Muyan said when he was young, he just fell asleep and never woke up again.
She couldn't stand the person she cared about leaving like this, and now Fu Yancheng had become the person she cared about.
Sheng Mian lowered his head and didn't say a word.
Fu Yancheng stood up, turned from behind the sofa to face her, took her into his arms, hugged her tightly, and lay aside.
"What's wrong? You're too tired from work and you're not happy?"
"No, I'm just happy to see you."
The corners of Fu Yancheng's mouth curved, and he hugged her tighter, and the two of them lay down on this wide sofa.
"Mianmian, why didn't I realize your mouth was so sweet before?"
Sheng Mian didn't say anything. All he kept thinking about was whether he had seen it and why he was so quiet.
