Chapter 32


Yang Cui's investigation revealed that Shen Yin was sponsored to study abroad, and later married Xu Xiuhe at the sponsor's request, but Yang Cui did not know who the sponsor behind it was.

At this moment, Yang Cui was sitting on the sofa in the living room, extremely angry. Xu Guimin, Xu Xiuhe's father, came back from the Xu Group and saw Yang Cui's unhappy expression. He asked, "What's wrong? Who made you angry?"

Yang Cui adjusted her expression and looked worried: "Guimin, Xiuhe is trending on social media."

"Oh?" Xu Guimin's action of taking off his suit paused for a moment.

Xu Guimin sat down on the sofa and took out his phone to see the trending news.NEew stories at no/vel/bi/n(.)com

Xu Guimin and Xu Xiuhe had a very strained relationship. Xu Xiuhe had an argument with Xu Guimin before his college entrance exam. After the exam, he directly went to become a tutor without setting foot in the Xu family mansion again before going to university. Both father and son had stubborn temperaments and neither was willing to back down. Even when Xu Xiuhe started his company, Xu Guimin was the last to know.

"Guimin, the child has been away for quite some time and it's been hard on him. Why don't we send someone to bring him back?" Yang Cui tentatively suggested. In fact, she didn't want Xu Xiuhe to come back at all. She just wanted to see Xu Guimin's reaction now.

"What's there to pick up? He can come back if he wants." Xu Guimin's expression was cold. Seeing this, Yang Cui felt reassured.

She may be reassured, but the netizens were not. They didn't expect Xu Xiuhe's wife to be from the Shen family, which was a marriage of equal elites. Moreover, they didn't expect Xu Xiuhe's previously unrevealed wife to be so beautiful with good temperament and appearance, and couldn't understand why there had been no movement at all previously.

The couple was good-looking, in line with the public aesthetic standards. Overnight, they even had a super-topic on social media, with fans frantically digging up all kinds of clues about their relationship, to no avail as there really wasn't anything previously.

【Forget it, from today onwards I'll start shipping this couple!】

【There's no clue so let's make up our own!】

【Sisters, go to Heyuan Group's official account. There are employees giving out clues there.】

Heyuan's official account gained hundreds of thousands of new followers overnight. Below were fans desperately asking for more clues. Unexpectedly, employees really gave out more:

【It was the lady boss's first time coming to the company to deliver lunch to the CEO. It was a huge lunchbox.】

【Don't mention it. We almost broke the elevator back then just to catch a glimpse of the lady boss.】

"So you practice calligraphy too." Shen Yin walked over to the desk, feeling a little surprised. Not many people practiced writing with soft brushes nowadays since technology made typing and printing so convenient. Many people even had poor hard brush penmanship.

Shen Yin took out the small wooden board from her bag. Xu Xiuhe didn't understand - didn't she say she wanted to practice calligraphy? Why did she take out a fancy wooden board?

Xu Xiuhe held Zhengzheng on the sofa and found a children's storybook to read out sentence by sentence for Zhengzheng. But half his attention was still on Shen Yin as he was very curious what she was doing.

Shen Yin dipped and spread the ink with familiar motions. An experienced calligrapher's posture. She laid the board flat and wrote the name "Yunyin Clothing Workshop" briskly in one go.

It seemed Zhengzheng noticed his mother was not accompanying him anymore and also wanted to play with the wooden board.

"Mama, mama, Zhengzheng also wants." Zhengzheng was sitting on the sofa but now wanted to get down by himself. Seeing the struggle, Xu Xiuhe went over carrying Zhengzheng towards Shen Yin. It was just as well since if not for his son's sake, he wouldn't have the excuse to go over on his own accord.

Next to Shen Yin, Xu Xiuhe then saw the words "Yunyin Clothing Workshop" on the board - probably the new name she came up with for her workshop.

But the calligraphy was extraordinary instead of ordinary. The strokes were strong and vigorous with excellent control of the brush tip that didn't seem like a woman's writing. Clearly she had practiced specifically before. Even seasoned calligraphers would probably feel inferior comparing to this.

Xu Xiuhe felt even more curious about Shen Yin now. He increasingly felt like she still had many secrets. A 24-year old woman with calligraphy like decades of practice.

Shen Yin was also very satisfied looking at her own writing. Superb, much better than what she wrote in Dasheng before. If her old tutor saw her writing like this, he probably wouldn't criticize her anymore for the poor form and penchant to argue with him that led her to always rank at the bottom in calligraphy evaluations at the academy! Shen Yin marveled again that everything in her dream was real. She just had to go along with it and all her skills seemed enhanced.

"Have you studied calligraphy before?" Xu Xiuhe asked.

Wary of exposing herself, Shen Yin replied, "I practiced for a period when I had nothing to do." Only then did she notice several framed calligraphy works on the wall that looked similar to what she produced in Dasheng. She considered her Dasheng work decent enough to show others, just that her tutor always found faults and made her keep practicing.

"Zhengzheng wants to write too!" Zhengzheng struggled in Xu Xiuhe's arms towards the desk.

"Zhengzheng, you're still small. You can write next year." Xu Xiuhe tried to dissuade him.

But Shen Yin thought otherwise. How could they extinguish a child's interest because he's too young? A child's interests must be encouraged and supported.

"It's fine."

Shen Yin picked up Zhengzheng and stood him on the chair. She placed paper before him and gave him a brush. She soon regretted her naive thoughts as the disaster unfolded anyway.
