TSBIR Chapter 49

Chapter 49: Yin Yan Enters Shen’s

Xiao Qi blocked Shen Xingyang, looking at Yin Yan unhappily.

Yin Yan ignored Xiao Qi, his eyes fixed on Shen Xingyang. Shen Xingyang patted Xiao Qi, signaling him to relax.

He stepped forward himself: “Xiao Qi, arrange an office for him later and handle some work handover.”

Shen Xingyang’s attitude was much better than Yin Yan had anticipated, and he accepted it quickly.

Xiao Qi had no choice but to nod.

Shen Xingyang paid no further attention and walked past Yin Yan into the office.

Previously, after Shen Gai’s death, Shen Jinjue became the family head and entrusted Shen’s to him. He arranged for Yin Yan to join the company, fearing he couldn’t manage everything alone.

But in this life, it happened so much earlier. Perhaps it was a good thing, to let Shen Jinjue know Yin Yan and his brother’s true colors sooner.

He believed Yin Yan would continue to tamper with his medicine, as he had in their past relationship.

Especially now that they were no longer together, Shen Xingyang knew that Yin Yan couldn’t accept him being with Song Yichen. The more impatient Yin Yan became, the happier he was.

“A’Yang, you can’t still be hung up on him, can you? Accepting him as your secretary?”

Xiao Qi looked puzzled, having not forgotten the past events.

Shen Xingyang was still typing, looking serious, not even glancing at Xiao Qi, just smiling faintly.

“How could I be? It’s just that some people are better kept under one’s nose than scheming in the dark.”

If Yin Yan hadn’t come to his side and had instead gone to Yin Yuan, he wouldn’t be able to monitor their actions and would be worried about Shen Jinjue. Now it was better; Yin Yan’s actions were all under his watch.

After work, Shen Xingyang still called Shen Jinjue, wanting to know if Yin Yan had proactively suggested joining Shen’s.

“Brother, why did you arrange for Yin Yan to join the company?”

Shen Xingyang asked, pretending to be indifferent, as if he didn’t mind Yin Yan’s arrival.

“I was worried you were too busy. Yin Yan grew up with you, and in any case, he’s more reliable than someone newly hired from outside. Don’t worry, I’ve warned him; he wouldn’t dare to mess around.”

Shen Xingyang smiled and said a few words before hanging up.

Not mess around? Probably only his brother would believe that. Yin Yan was a madman at heart, just too good at hiding it.

He’d be a fool to trust him.

Shen Jinjue’s words indicated that Yin Yan hadn’t proactively suggested it. He increasingly didn’t understand what his brother was doing.

He said he’d give them a month, but not even half had passed before he brought Yin Yan before him, annoying Song Yichen.

“Song Yichen, my brother assigned Yin Yan to be my secretary, and I agreed.”

Shen Xingyang said cautiously, worried Song Yichen would get angry.

“Shen Xingyang, you think I’m very tolerant, don’t you?”

Song Yichen knew Shen Jinjue had deliberately arranged it, but he didn’t expect Shen Xingyang to agree so readily.

He also knew Shen Xingyang only liked him, not that Yin Yan, but having someone who liked Shen Xingyang hanging around him was still annoying.

Shen Xingyang knew that if Song Yichen wasn’t angry at this point, he probably didn’t care.

Shen Xingyang tilted his head and kissed Song Yichen: “I need to keep him at the company for some things. Don’t worry, he won’t get close to me. A’Qi deliberately placed his office in the farthest location from mine. I’ll try to avoid seeing him as much as possible.”

Shen Xingyang had no choice; he had to keep Yin Yan at the company, but out of consideration for Song Yichen’s feelings, he had to stay away from Yin Yan.

Anyway, with Xiao Qi watching him, he would know everything Yin Yan did.

Song Yichen was helpless; he knew Shen Xingyang had his reasons and wouldn’t change his mind.

“Fine, just don’t get too close to him.”

“I promise.”

Shen Xingyang even raised his hand to swear, looking sincere.

Song Yichen bit Shen Xingyang resentfully before reluctantly letting him go.

“It’s almost been a month. When is your brother going to let you move back!”

Song Yichen hugged Shen Xingyang, looking a bit aggrieved. After his birthday, Ji Yan watched Shen Xingyang even more closely, making him return home early every day, so Song Yichen couldn’t spend much time with him.

“It should be soon, right? I’ll try to gauge my brother’s intentions later.”

Song Yichen nodded helplessly, looking frustrated.

“Xingyun, I’m leaving.”

Shen Xingyang went to pet Xingyun, and Xingyun obediently rubbed its head against him, but now that Shen Xingyang was leaving, it didn’t chase after him, just watching him leave.

In just a few days, Shen Xingyang felt that Xingyun had gotten a bit fatter than before. Indeed, Song Yichen was better at raising cats.

“What happened to your neck?”

As soon as he returned, Ji Yan noticed the marks on Shen Xingyang’s neck, thinking it was an allergic reaction, and quickly stepped forward to ask, preparing to check.

Shen Xingyang quickly pulled his collar up: “It’s nothing, just mosquito bites.”

After Shen Xingyang finished speaking, he hurriedly returned to his room and went to the bathroom. Sure enough, there were marks all over his neck.

He knew that Song Yichen, the jealous pot, definitely wouldn’t let him meet Yin Yan just like that. He smiled helplessly, ignoring the marks.

The next day, Shen Xingyang checked the marks first thing after waking up, and they were even more pronounced.

He rummaged through his wardrobe, found a scarf he had never used, and wrapped it around his neck.

That way, they wouldn’t be visible.

Shen Xingyang left home satisfied. Fortunately, it was winter. Although Mucheng’s winter didn’t reach tens of degrees below zero, it was still necessary to dress warmly outside.

When he arrived at the office, Shen Xingyang didn’t take off his scarf and coat, feeling a bit warm.

Xiao Qi looked at him in confusion, utterly perplexed.

“There’s air conditioning, why are you wearing so many layers? Aren’t you hot?”

Shen Xingyang looked at the air conditioning remote control, lowered the air conditioning temperature, and then looked at Xiao Qi with satisfaction.

“That way, it won’t be hot.”

…

Xiao Qi stared blankly at his series of actions, looking at him like he was a lunatic, but he still nodded woodenly.

“Whatever makes you happy.”

Then he ran out of Shen Xingyang’s office as if escaping for his life. Shen Xingyang was a lunatic; he wasn’t cold, but others were!

Shen Xingyang deliberately asked Yin Yan to deliver some documents. Before Yin Yan arrived, Shen Xingyang quickly adjusted the air conditioning back to normal temperature and took off his scarf and coat.

He pretended nothing had happened and sat calmly in his office chair, waiting for Yin Yan to arrive.

Sure enough, Yin Yan came soon after. He had been staring at Shen Xingyang since he entered, and the first thing he noticed were the marks on his neck, frowning unhappily.

He handed the documents to Shen Xingyang but stood there without leaving.

“A’Yang, you are the general manager of the company, after all. You should cover up the marks on your body; it has a bad influence.”

Yin Yan felt very uncomfortable now. He even wanted to go up and wipe those marks off, scrubbing them hard with a towel, and then covering them with his own.

He had never left any marks on Shen Xingyang before because Shen Xingyang resisted it a lot. Turns out, it wasn’t resisting the marks themselves, but resisting him.

Shen Xingyang subconsciously touched his neck, then looked at Yin Yan indifferently.

For some reason, after being with Song Yichen, he enjoyed challenging Yin Yan’s bottom line.

“You are my secretary and have no right to interfere in my affairs. Get out.”

After Shen Xingyang finished speaking, he began to look down at the documents Yin Yan had given him, focusing intently, completely ignoring Yin Yan in front of him.

Yin Yan was helpless and walked out angrily, slamming the door loudly, a sound revealing Yin Yan’s suppressed anger.

Shen Xingyang looked at the door and smiled silently. Sure enough, Yin Yan’s possessiveness was what he couldn’t control the most.

After a while, he continued to lower the air conditioning and put on his scarf.

Of course, he knew it had a bad influence, so he would only let Yin Yan see it; otherwise, Song Yichen’s efforts would have been wasted.
