Reason?

She ‍​‌​‌​​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌​​​‌‌‌​​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​‌​​​‌‌​​​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌​‌​‌​‌‌‌​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​‌‌‌​‍was his wife in his previous life.

Bad ‍​‌​‌​​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌​​​‌‌‌​​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​‌​​​‌‌​​​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌​‌​‌​‌‌‌​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​‌‌‌​‍character, betrayed him, and tried to seize his wealth...

These ‍​‌​‌​​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌​​​‌‌‌​​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​‌​​​‌‌​​​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌​‌​‌​‌‌‌​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​‌‌‌​‍things couldn't be spoken out loud.

Also... ‍​‌​‌​​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌​​​‌‌‌​​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​‌​​​‌‌​​​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌​‌​‌​‌‌‌​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​‌‌‌​‍he had thought before that Yang Shuting from his previous life shouldn't be considered the same person as Yang Shuting in this life.

At least...

At this time, Yang Shuting's character was still good.

She became obsessed with the grand dream of upper-class wealth only after marrying him.

If she didn't marry him in this life, then Yang Shuting wouldn't possibly become like she was in the previous life.

After realizing these things.

Chen Fan felt he might have been too "concerned" about Yang Shuting.

He had clearly decided to ignore her.

"Ah, forget it. You recruited her anyway, so let her stay if she won't quit."

Chen Fan stood up.

"You're definitely hiding something from me," Mo Siyu stood up and muttered softly.

"Are you sure you don't know her?"

"I don't know her," Chen Fan gave a definitive answer, "If you don't believe me, go ask her."

"Just pretend I didn't come today, and that earlier conversation never happened."

"In the future, manage your own team, but you must treat her equally. If she violates company rules, she must be fired."

Mo Siyu nodded: "Of course."

Chen Fan waved his hand: "Alright then. I'm leaving."

"Don't forget the company meeting this afternoon."

After sending Chen Fan out of the office, Mo Siyu watched his retreating figure with a strange look.

She felt Chen Fan had been somewhat inexplicable just now.

As Chen Fan was leaving, Yang Shuting, who had just changed clothes in the adjacent fitting room, almost collided with him.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."

Yang Shuting quickly apologized, then looked up and saw Chen Fan's face, clearly stunned.

"It's you..."

Chen Fan glanced at her delicate and pure face, then walked away expressionlessly.

"Hey..."

Yang Shuting called out softly from behind, but Chen Fan didn't even look back.

Mo Siyu, who was behind them, happened to see this scene and became thoughtful.

During lunch, Mo Siyu actively invited Yang Shuting.

This was Yang Shuting's first time working at such a large company, without any familiar friends around. When Manager Mo took the initiative to invite her, she was naturally very happy.

After their previous two encounters, Yang Shuting and Mo Siyu had already become friends, at least they could share some personal thoughts with each other.

Mo Siyu first asked about Yang Shuting's life, then talked about going shopping together sometime. This made Yang Shuting very happy.

Then Mo Siyu casually asked: "Did you know Chen Fan before?"

"Chen Fan?"

Yang Shuting's eyes were confused, seeming not to have realized yet.

"The one who hit you with his car last time, you just saw him in the office, right?"

"Ah, him!"

Yang Shuting seemed delighted and quickly shook her head.

"I don't know him."

"Really don't know him?" Mo Siyu was somewhat doubtful.

"Really don't know him." Yang Shuting answered promptly.

"By the way, Manager Mo, does he also work in our company?"

Mo Siyu looked at her in surprise: "You don't know? He's our boss. Chen Fan is the founder of Feifan Media."

"Ah?"

Yang Shuting was truly shocked.

"Him? So young?"

Mo Siyu stared at Yang Shuting for a few seconds, confirming that she wasn't acting.

It seemed they really didn't know each other before.

"I thought you and Mr. Chen knew each other already."

Yang Shuting shook her head, "I didn't know he was our company's boss. But I live in the same residential complex as him."

"A while ago when I had an argument with my boyfriend, he helped me out."

Mo Siyu's eyes brightened: "Really? Can you tell me about it?"

Yang Shuting seemed troubled, but thinking that Mo Siyu was her supervisor and currently her most trusted friend, she briefly explained what happened that day.

"There was such a thing!"

Mo Siyu heard the story and was angry with widened eyes.

"Why keep such a scumbag? Why didn't you break up with him?"

Yang Shuting lowered her head and said softly: "I... I broke up with him a few days ago."

"Hmph, breaking up is letting him off easy. If he dares to harass you again, tell me, and I'll seek justice for you."

Mo Siyu had always been a person full of justice, otherwise she wouldn't have taken pity on Yang Shuting and actively recruited her into the company.

However, at this moment, Mo Siyu was wondering what game Chen Fan was playing.

He had helped her like a hero before, but then wanted me to fire her?

Mo Siyu couldn't help but look at Yang Shuting again.

Although she didn't understand what Chen Fan was up to.

She could be certain that Chen Fan's attitude toward Yang Shuting was definitely different, at least different from how he treated other women.

As for the reason, she would probably have to observe slowly in the future.

......

Time moved to May.

Chen Fan first attended the groundbreaking ceremony of Hongfan Electronics, delivering an inspiring speech at the conference.

He also announced an additional 50 million in R&D funding for Hongfan Electronics.

Then he attended the opening ceremony of Ma Xiaoshuai's restaurant.

For this restaurant, Ma Xiaoshuai had invested more than half of his family's savings, which was considered his determined attempt at entrepreneurship.

The restaurant was named "Zai Hui Lou" with the slogan of promoting authentic Shandong cuisine flavors.

For this, Ma Xiaoshuai paid a high price to recruit two Shandong cuisine masters from five-star hotels.

On opening day, Chen Fan attended, and Luo Wenjie, Guo Shuai, and Wu Di all brought their girlfriends too.

Colorful flags waved at the restaurant entrance, with congratulatory flower baskets lined up far down the street.

Qifan Property Management, represented by Guo Shuai, sent a flower basket, while Brother Jie represented Jinding Entertainment in sending one.

Wu Di and his girlfriend sent one in their own names.

Of course, even more impressive was another row of flower baskets from Ruofan Group, Feifan Video, Feifan Media, Qifan Construction, Feifan Technology...

Goodness, when the guests saw this string of names, they were all stunned.

All the subsidiaries of Ruofan Group had sent flower baskets.

What kind of relationship did this restaurant's owner have with Ruofan Group?

Everyone soon found out.

Because after setting off firecrackers for the ribbon-cutting ceremony, Ma Xiaoshuai forcefully dragged Chen Fan up to cut the ribbon with him.

Many people in attendance recognized Chen Fan and let out gasps of surprise.

Some even called the media right there to leak this news.

The founder of Ruofan Group, Yunhai's richest man, had come to support and cut the ribbon for a restaurant.

How could this relationship be ordinary?

They must be close friends.

On stage, Ma Xiaoshuai stood in the middle, with his girlfriend Song Linlin on the left and Chen Fan on the right.

The three held scissors, looked at each other, then snipped the red silk with a quick cut.

Firecrackers went off.

The crowd erupted in applause.

In the crowd, Wu Di's girlfriend watched the scene on stage and couldn't help but nudge Wu Di beside her.

"You said you were close friends, but he took time off to come support the opening, yet you weren't even invited up for the ribbon cutting."
