After Chen Jie finished speaking, Li Na stepped forward.
Today, Li Na wore a royal blue silk wrap dress. The fabric shimmered softly with her steps, perfectly outlining her figure.
Her calves, framed by the skirt, had beautiful lines, and she wore nude pointed-toe stilettos, which made her figure appear even more upright.
Two small pearl stud earrings adorned her earlobes, perfectly complementing her classic retro red lips, giving her a charming aura that was both professional and approachable.
It must be said that Li Na is very beautiful and eye-catching.
During the negotiations just now, Shen Yan noticed that several of the opposing lawyers would unconsciously glance at Li Na.
Li Na stepped forward and whispered, "Boss, we just received news that the CEOs of two companies overseas want to meet with you."
"CEO? Who?"
Shen Yan really didn't know about this matter. He returned the handkerchief to Zhang Feng and looked at Li Na.
"One is VOGUE fashion magazine, and the other is a TV station from John Bull."
Upon hearing this, Shen Yan understood and said, "Since they want to see me, you should make arrangements to meet them at a later time."
"Okay, boss, I'll arrange it right away."
"Ah."
As he spoke, Shen Yan reached out and grabbed Li Na's waist. He immediately felt his palm sink into a soft and warm fertile ground. Her waist had a plump curve, and when he pressed his fingers lightly, he could feel the elastic skin beneath.
"boss."
Li Na glanced around shyly, and only breathed a sigh of relief when she realized no one was looking in her direction.
"Thank you for your hard work during this time."
"It's fine."
Li Na shook her head, her face flushed, and was about to say something when her phone rang.
She looked at Shen Yan apologetically before picking up her phone to check.
But when she saw who was making the call, her face turned ashen, and she immediately hung up.
But before she could put the phone back, the call came in again.
At this moment, Shen Yan noticed Li Na's condition, placed his hand on her shoulder, patted her gently, and said softly, "It's okay, go ahead and answer it."
"I....."
Li Na rarely showed such a girlish expression. She glanced at Shen Yan and finally mustered up the courage to answer the call.
"Hey, what's up? Tell me."
"Impossible! You treated me like that when I was a child, so why are you clinging to me now?"
"I'm telling you, it's impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
"Sue me?"
"Fine! Then I'll wait for you to sue me! Let's see who's afraid of whom!"
Shen Yan noticed that Li Na went from being annoyed at first to becoming furious later, and he knew that she had encountered something wrong.
I saw her holding her phone, stubbornly keeping her head down.
Shen Yan knew she was feeling choked up, so he reached out and pinched her chin.
But then she saw that Li Na's eyes were red-rimmed, and her bright eyes were filled with a layer of mist, but she stubbornly refused to let them fall.
Her long eyelashes trembled rapidly like the wings of a startled butterfly, and the tip of her nose twitched slightly, turning a hint of red.
She bit her lower lip hard with her pearly teeth, leaving a faint mark.
She abruptly turned her face away, leaving only a slightly trembling shoulder and a very soft, suppressed breath in her throat. Her forced composure was more heartbreaking than any cry.
Seeing this, Shen Yan turned her face back to him from behind, looking down at her and saying, word by word, "Tell me what happened."
"I....."
"I....."
Upon hearing these words, Li Na finally couldn't hold back anymore. Like a child who had been extremely wronged, she threw herself into Shen Yan's arms and sobbed softly.
"Woooooo~"
"Waaaaah~".
161 Household chores, Li Na's difficulties
Seeing Li Na crying, Zhang Feng and the others who were protecting Shen Yan all stepped aside.
They felt it was better not to see such a scene.
Shen Yan hugged Li Na and whispered to comfort her, "Just tell me what's wrong. There's nothing that can't be resolved."
"Besides, I'm still here, so tell me, what happened?"
“…”
After comforting him for several minutes, Shen Yan was almost out of words.
Li Na finally calmed down. She raised her head, her tear-streaked face looking pitiful.
Shen Yan reached out and wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes: "If you keep crying, your makeup will be ruined and you won't look good."
"I didn't."
Li Na pouted coquettishly, but she was still extremely concerned about her makeup, and carefully wiped away her tears.
During this time, Shen Yan just watched her quietly.
Sure enough, no matter how old a woman is, she cares a lot about her appearance.
After Li Na finished tidying up, Shen Yan finally spoke, looking at her with a serious expression: "Li Na, tell me, what exactly happened?"
"I....."
Upon hearing this, Li Na glanced at him before saying softly, "Actually, it was my father who called me just now, he..."
As Li Na recounted her story, Shen Yan finally learned what had happened to her.
It all started because of his father, Li Wei.
Due to her childhood family environment, Li Wei, her father, was an alcoholic, lacked care for his family, and failed to fulfill his responsibilities as a father, which caused great trauma to Li Na's young mind.
This also led to Li Na wanting to escape her current home after growing up. She lived and worked in Shanghai for many years, rarely called during holidays, and never inquired about her father.
But recently, for some reason, Li Wei has been almost shamelessly asking Li Na to take care of him in his old age.
He claimed to be old and frail, with no one to care for him, and demanded that Li Na fulfill her filial obligations, standing on the moral high ground throughout.
Li Na naturally refused. Why should you be irresponsible when I was young, and now that you're old, you're clinging to me?
After being refused multiple times, Li Wei just called and said he was going to sue Li Na, accusing her of not taking care of him in his old age, and that he had even found a lawyer.
"Oh, so that's what happened."
Although he only heard the gist of it, Shen Yan vaguely remembered that Li Na had such a scene in the drama, and it caused quite a stir at the time.
He smiled as he tidied Li Na's hair, saying, "I thought something was wrong. I called your father, and since we have some free time now, let's talk to him."
"Oh, and his lawyer too."
"Can...."
When Li Na saw that Shen Yan was going to stand up for her, she was both surprised and delighted. But when she thought about her shameless appearance, she wondered what unreasonable demands he might make if he knew that Shen Yan was very rich.
She immediately shook her head and refused: "No."
After saying that, Li Na seemed to realize that such a blunt refusal was inappropriate, so she quickly added, "Chairman Shen, you don't know my father. He's a scoundrel."
“If he knew you were rich, he would definitely pester you for money, and I don’t want to cause you any trouble.”
Seeing her resistance, Shen Yan knew that she was genuinely thinking of him.
He laughed and pulled her into his arms, gently pinching her nose: "Li Na, what do you have to worry about? I'm not one to suffer losses."
"Besides, how are you going to resolve this now? Take them to court?"
"It will only get more troublesome, and the other party has already come looking for trouble with you. As your man, shouldn't you help you?"
“…”
These words completely charmed Li Na, who immediately stopped insisting and picked up her phone to call her father.
However, the tone Li Na used when speaking to Shen Yan was not much better than the tone she used when speaking to her father.
"let's talk."
"Row."
"You can bring your lawyer if you wish."
After hanging up the phone, Li Na said with some dissatisfaction, "Should we bring a lawyer too, Mr. Shen?"
Shen Yan shook his head: "It's just a meeting, why bring a lawyer? We're not enemies."
At this moment, Shen Yan had already remembered the general situation of Li Na's father. He immediately beckoned to Zhang Feng, who came over and whispered a few words in his ear.
Upon hearing his instructions, Zhang Feng immediately took her leave.
Seeing her walk away, Li Na asked curiously, "Chairman Shen, what did you and Sister Zhang talk about?"
"You'll find out later."
Shen Yan didn't tell Li Na right away, which aroused her curiosity, and she blinked her big eyes at him.
But Shen Yan was determined not to say anything, and pinched her nose: "Let's go to the place you agreed to meet."
"What, so secretive?"
Touching her nose, Li Na stomped her foot playfully, but the next moment she caught up with Shen Yan, hugged his arm, and happily walked with him.
..
Meanwhile, inside a high-end coffee shop in Shanghai.
A handsome man with thin-rimmed glasses was sitting in his seat, smiling as he looked at the person opposite him.
