Series: After Becoming a Cannon Fodder, I Bent the Villainous CEO

In August in City H, the sun blazed down, and the heat was oppressive. After only a few steps outside, Shen Yan was already sweating profusely. He let out a light breath, gathered his long, disheveled hair with both hands, and casually tied it into a ponytail using a black rubber band on his wrist.…

But Su Yunzhe wasn’t so easy to deal with. Sitting behind his desk, eyes fixed on a document, he didn’t spare Shen Yan a glance before dismissively throwing out a single word, “Go!” “But…” “Or the contract is void.” Shen Yan tried to negotiate, but Su Yunzhe’s sharp response left him speechless. He rolled his…

This fleeting thought passed through Duan Yang’s mind but was quickly dismissed. How could anyone look this much alike? As far as he knew, Shen Yan had no siblings except Shen Jiaqi. After Shen Yan’s escape, the housekeeper reported a missing dress and wig, and surveillance footage showed a woman’s figure leaving. Now, three days…

Shen Yan wasn’t a heavy drinker, and after just two glasses of red wine, his head began to feel a bit dizzy. However, the moment he saw Su Yunzhe, he immediately realized it was the perfect chance to explain things to his “sponsor.” So, he hurried over, smiling as he greeted, “President Su, why are…

Shen Yan didn’t expect Su Yunzhe to not only refrain from leaving him in the car but to actually take him home. The memory of Su Yunzhe immediately putting out his cigarette the moment he saw him flashed in Shen Yan’s mind, making him think that maybe the book’s description of Su Yunzhe had been…

Shen Yan never expected that Su Yunzhe would be so meticulous. Reflecting on his earlier reckless behavior, he felt a bit embarrassed. Lu Xiaoqing was likely in a hurry to return to take care of her child. After she set down her things and confirmed that Shen Yan had no further requests, she quickly left.…

“Hmm? Are we there?” Shen Yan was a bit surprised. When he looked up, he found the car had stopped in a place he didn’t recognize at all. He glanced at Su Yunzhe in confusion. “This… doesn’t seem to be near my home.” Su Yunzhe wore a half-smile that seemed to mock him. “I said…

Duan Yang, living up to his status as an acclaimed actor, quickly composed himself and greeted Su Yunzhe politely as the host. Shen Yan was hiding in the restroom, straining to listen to the commotion outside. It seemed that Su Yunzhe had a good relationship with Duan Songtao. After learning that the old man was…

It was clearly not his imagination, as Wang Li’s face suddenly turned pale, and she quickly shook her head. “No… it wasn’t me…” It truly wasn’t Wang Li’s fault. When Shen Yan jumped out of the window, he landed in a small flowerbed filled with rose bushes, and he accidentally scratched himself on a thorn,…

Shen Yan shook hands with him, a bit surprised as he asked, “Mr. Qin knows me?” Qin Mofeng smiled, revealing a set of bright white teeth. “Of course! I have a close relationship with Old Su; I have to report any developments he has. Oh, by the way, you should change how you address me.…

In the afternoon, the sun withdrew its brilliance behind the clouds. Su Yunzhe, leisurely wearing sunglasses, leaned back on a sunbed under the parasol by the lake, fishing. Shen Yan stood on the second-floor balcony watching him for a good half hour. That person hadn’t moved at all, and it was hard to tell if…

Shen Yan heard the voice and turned around, surprised to see Su Yunzhe following him. “President Su?” Just then, he stepped into another pothole, “Ouch…” Su Yunzhe reached out to steady him. “Watch where you’re going; if you fall, it won’t be considered a work injury.” He then took Shen Yan’s hand and didn’t let…

Su Yunzhe wasn’t angry; he simply shot Shen Yan a half-smile that seemed to say, “Who cares about your gratitude?” Unable to hold back, Shen Yan rolled his eyes at him, then fell silent. He really didn’t understand Su Yunzhe’s temperament. Although his actions were well-intentioned, the way he expressed himself often left people feeling…

Duan Yang was momentarily taken aback, realizing that Yu Lin’s speculation could indeed be possible. However, he soon dismissed it, thinking Yu Lin was making a fuss: “So what if they’re living together in that kind of relationship?” Yu Lin replied, “I didn’t think of that either! After all, Su Yunzhe is a young, accomplished…

Once back in the car, Duan Yang’s face was as dark as thunder. Yu Lin knew that he was always concerned about his pride, and after being ruthlessly rejected by Shen Yan today, he must be furious. So, he chose to stay silent to avoid provoking him further. It took Duan Yang quite a while…

Shen Yan felt he was probably overthinking it; after all, he hardly ever came to the company, and there were very few people who knew him, so it made no sense for there to be any gossip. So he didn’t think much of it and went straight up to the top floor to find Lu…

Shen Yan looked at him in surprise, not expecting that he would suddenly bring it up. Then, he laughed, “No kidding—if I weren’t already married, and if cheating weren’t off the table, I’d almost be tempted by President Su’s offer.” Who wouldn’t be tempted? Thinking about that run-down place he lives in, and then picturing…

Su Yunzhe seemed familiar with this area, heading directly into the supermarket after riding the elevator up. Shen Yan followed, pushing the cart as he watched Su Yunzhe, sleeves of his white shirt rolled up, weaving through the seafood section with practiced ease. During the workday, his hair was always meticulously styled, but now a…

In late August, the daytime heat was still intense, but the evenings had already lost that summer edge, especially on the rooftop of the 50-story building, where a gentle breeze brought a light, refreshing coolness. Qin Mofeng had managed to convince Shen Yan to drink a few more cups of wine, and now Shen Yan’s…

The two were so close that Su Yunzhe’s fresh, clean scent entirely filled Shen Yan’s senses. That smell… was strangely pleasant. This thought flickered through Shen Yan’s mind before his mouth seemed to break free from his brain’s control. “Old Su, you know this isn’t right. Didn’t anyone ever teach you to keep your promises?”…
