Chapter 257: Serving My Wife

“So what if I know? So what if I don’t know?” Shen Hanxing blinked and asked in confusion, “No matter what his status is, he’s still my husband, isn’t he?”

Seeing Shen Hanxing’s stubborn look, Wang Wen’s eyes flashed with anger. Wang Wen replied, “You have to understand that CEO Ji can create a huge amount of wealth every minute and every second. Every decision he makes has a huge impact on the business world. A person like him is destined to sit in a high position and stir up trouble. He’s not going to do such a small thing as cutting fruit plates to satisfy your appetite. It’s a waste of his talent.”

Wang Wen was still brooding over the scene she saw in the morning.

“I want to ask you something. Don’t you have any social life after work?” Shen Hanxing suddenly asked, “In your life, apart from work and study, is there nothing else? Friends? Family? Or lovers?”

Wang Wen paused, her expression slightly stiff. She replied, “This has nothing to do with you.”

“These things indeed have nothing to do with me, but I want you to understand that Ji Yan is the same as you and me, the same as most people in this world. He’s human.” Shen Hanxing’s expression turned cold, she looked at Wang Wen. Then, she continued, “I don’t know why you have such strange thoughts about Ji Yan, but I want to remind you that Ji Yan is not a machine. He has time to relax, he has his loved ones, family, and friends. He can’t be like what you imagine, a machine that works continuously.”

Shen Hanxing paused and raised her chin. She stared at Wang Wen coldly and said, “I’ve never asked him to do anything. It’s all up to him to do whatever he wants. As long as it’s something he wants to do, it’s never a waste of his time or abilities. He has his thoughts. He’s not someone’s puppet, and he’s not the almighty deity in your mind either, Secretary-general Wang.”

“You’re talking nonsense!” Wang Wen’s brows were tightly furrowed as if she had received a huge shock. Her expression went blank for a moment. Then, she said, “Wasting time on insignificant things is a waste of CEO Ji’s talent!”

“I’ve said it before. As long as it’s something he wants to do, it’s not a waste,” Shen Hanxing said in a deep voice. “There’s no rule that says talented people should work non-stop, just for the so-called ridiculous reason of not wasting their talents and abilities.”

“My wife,” Coincidentally, Ji Yan came over to look for Shen Hanxing. He stood not far away and looked at Wang Wen indifferently. Then, his gaze fell on Shen Hanxing with a subtle gentleness. He said, “It’s time for lunch.”

“Okay, I’ll go over now,” Shen Hanxing smiled. After waving her hand at Ji Yan, she said to Wang Wen, “Ji Yan is a person, not a machine. No one has the right to use any reason to restrain him. He’s a free and independent man.” After saying that, she walked briskly towards Ji Yan and the two of them left side by side.

From the back view, the two of them were a perfect match.

Wang Wen stood where she was and she had an agonizing expression on her face.

“Wang Wen.” Ji Yan suddenly stopped and turned his head. His dark eyes looked at her with a hint of coldness.

“CEO Ji.” Wang Wen’s throat was inexplicably tight.

“I don’t think serving my wife is a waste of time,” Ji Yan said coldly. “I’m willing to do anything for my wife. I have my own life. As the secretary-general, you have interfered too much.” After saying that, he took Shen Hanxing’s hand and left in big strides, leaving Wang Wen alone in a daze.

The next day, Shen Hanxing received countless stares as soon as she entered the school. After all, there were very few fierce people who caused trouble on the first day of school at Si Cheng High School. Along the way, there were complicated and indiscernible gazes.

Si Cheng High School did not emphasize on grades, but every test was stressful for the students. Shen Hanxing’s deskmate was a young woman with a round face and she wore glasses. Her name was Chu Yuanyuan.

Chu Yuanyuan was not afraid of Shen Hanxing because of what happened yesterday. When Shen Hanxing sat down, she even carefully lowered her voice and took the initiative to speak to Shen Hanxing. She said, “Shen Hanxing?” Although she was not afraid, her round little face was inevitably nervous.

Shen Hanxing was amused by her behavior. Shen Hanxing asked, “What’s wrong?”

“I heard that you made a bet with Bai Ling to see if you could get on the honor roll? Is that true?” Chu Yuanyuan, who had been a good child since childhood, looked at Shen Hanxing with a mixture of awe and admiration. “Are you sure you can get on the honor roll?”

“Even if I can’t get on the honor roll, would Bai Ling kick me out of the school?” Shen Hanxing shook her head in amusement. She continued, “I only said that I want to prove that I have the ability to stay in Si Cheng High School.”
