Forensic Doctor, Moe Wife

Chapter 697: President, I’m Just Your Secretary

“President Sheng, your wife is here today. Why do you still bring this beautiful little lady here?” A business friend began to tease Sheng Bowen.

“To be honest, Miss Hu and I have separated,” Sheng Bowen explained tactfully.

“I see.” The other party smiled. “In that case, there’s nothing to hide. I just don’t know who this young lady...”

“Her surname is Ren.”

Sheng Bowen did not directly tell the other party that she was his secretary. Instead, he introduced her in a serious manner. Her surname was Ren. After hearing these words, Ren Yufei’s emotions got very complex. Her stomach churned out even more butterflies.

It was because Hu Ran was present that she felt extremely pressured. However, Sheng Bowen did not mind it. He chatted with all his friends and shared the fact that he was already divorced.

It was probably to protect Ren Yufei’s face.

However, even though Sheng Bowen had revealed the fact that he was single, it made Hu Ran very uncomfortable. This was because all the women came to her for confirmation after hearing the news.

This made Hu Ran think that Sheng Bowen was doing this for Ren Yufei. That was why he had cast aside the relationship between the two of them on such an occasion.

He did not care at all that it would make her feel embarrassed.

..

Sheng Bowen brought Ren Yufei along to meet people everywhere. When he saw that she was tired from standing, he let her rest.

“Go over and sit for a while. Eat something. There’s still a while before the banquet. Otherwise, you’ll feel even more uncomfortable later.”

Ren Yufei fled from the scene and went to the resting area because she felt that everyone’s eyes were upon her.

At this moment, Hu Ran took the opportunity to sit beside her.

“Secretary Ren.”

“Miss Hu...”

“I know. Back then, you were Sheng Kai’s chess piece by Third Brother’s side. I just didn’t expect Third Brother to not have driven you away yet.” Hu Ran’s words were somewhat impolite. “Your presence here tonight has embarrassed me. Everyone came to ask me if I was dumped, if I was cheated on, and who you are.”

“I’m sorry,” Ren Yufei apologized, although she did not know why she had to.

However, as a secretary, her professionalism reminded her to step back.

“If you still have to accompany Third Brother to such an occasion next time, then I’ll have to trouble you. You must first investigate who the guests will be. Only then can you help Third Brother avoid embarrassment. Otherwise, how sad would it be if every time is like tonight?”

“It’s my negligence,” Ren Yufei replied with her head lowered.

“Being a secretary is your job. I believe that I don’t need to teach you what to do.” After saying that, Hu Ran stood up from Ren Yufei’s side and returned to Father Hu.

She was here to vent her anger on the secretary.

Although she did not know why she was so angry!

However, Hu Ran did not realize how innocent Ren Yufei was. It was true that Ren Yufei was a secretary, but she did not deserve to be humiliated and trampled on like this.

Therefore, she hid in the dark and held back her tears.

Sheng Bowen did not notice this scene at that moment. He only did when toward the end of the cocktail party a friend’s female companion said to him, “CEO Sheng, you really don’t care about the fairer sex. Your secretary has been hiding in a corner and crying secretly several times, but you didn’t notice it at all.”

Sheng Bowen was stunned when he heard that. “I don’t quite understand what you mean.”

“You and Hu Ran divorced, but you brought your secretary as your female companion without making it public. “Your explanation along the way saved your secretary’s face, but it was akin to giving Miss Hu a slap on the face. As a daughter of a wealthy family, she naturally had to find trouble with your secretary in order to vent her anger.”

Sheng Bowen was naturally lacking in this aspect.

However, after being reminded by this person, he found Ren Yufei and saw that her eyes were indeed red.

Therefore, he immediately said, “Let’s go first...”

“But, we’re only half-way through the banquet,” Ren Yufei said as she looked at him.

“There’s no need to put on a brave front.” Sheng Bowen held her hand after he said that. “I didn’t ask you to come with me to let you be bullied. This is equivalent to slapping me.”

Sheng Bowen was angry. Although he did not know why, Sheng Bowen felt that Hu Ran was no longer the Hu Ran he knew. She may be his ex-wife and he should be on her side, however, he now realized that he had never truly understood her.

She had been tortured for two to three years. Why did she lose her original kindness when her days were better now?

Sheng Bowen did not understand.

“President Sheng, are you leaving?”

“Third Brother, are you leaving?”

Sheng Bowen turned around and saw Hu Ran behind him. He grabbed Ren Yufei even tighter and said to Hu Ran, “The news of the divorce will be published in the newspaper tomorrow. It was my mistake to inconvenience you tonight.”

After saying that, Sheng Bowen pulled Ren Yufei and left the reception.

Hu Ran’s expression was not pretty. She did not know why she... was so angry. She even felt like she did not know who she was at the moment.

When Father Hu saw this, he patted his daughter’s shoulder. “I told you long ago that you would regret it. What now? The divorce is already over, and you’re just starting to get jealous?”

“I’m jealous?”

“Why else did you go and teach that little secretary a lesson?”

Hu Ran couldn’t reply for a moment because she didn’t know what was going on with her. Although Mu Qiqi’s words last time had made her understand a lot, when she really saw Sheng Bowen, she couldn’t control herself.

..

On the other side, Sheng Bowen pressed the button to the highest floor of the hotel. Previously, he wanted to get Secretary Ren to be happy, but now that such a thing had happened, he naturally had to be more considerate of other people’s feelings.

“I didn’t do it on purpose...”

“I know,” Ren Yufei replied softly, because Sheng Bowen was such a person who never knew what was going on when it came to relationships.

“To make it up to you, I’ll show you the most beautiful night view in Jianchuan.” Sheng Bowen directly booked the top floor and then asked the waiter to decorate the top floor in a very romantic way.

Ren Yufei finally smiled when she saw the candlelight dinner. She also felt a little helpless. “President, I’m just your secretary...”

“To me, you’re the hero who accompanied me through difficult times,” Sheng Bowen explained as he helped Ren Yufei to a seat.

“But, if people find out that we’re on the top floor, it will cause a misunderstanding...”

“Misunderstanding about what?”

“Misunderstanding that we’re... in that kind of relationship.” Ren Yufei’s face turned red again, and she felt uncomfortable.

“I don’t really care. I’m just afraid of damaging your reputation,” Sheng Bowen said. His words were the truth because they came from his heart. He even felt a little happy that he and secretary Ren were considered a couple.
