Tangling with the Western Commander
Chapter 891 - 879: The Jealousy Bottle Has Been Spilled (Part 4)
Turned around somewhat bewildered, looking at them.
Especially glancing at Li Zaijun.
Big apricot eyes, innocent and pure, just like a girl still in school, untouched by the world.
Li Zaijun heard Shen Lin’s straightforward introduction and seemed both surprised and unsurprised.
No matter what, she adjusted her breathing slightly, then when she looked at the woman, squeezed out a smile: "Hello, I’m his girlfriend."
The woman looked at the two of them again, finally smiled, and said meaningfully: "I really didn’t expect, Shen is already at the age of marriage and still hasn’t ’settled down.’
Still hasn’t settled down.
The subtext couldn’t be clearer.
Hasn’t played enough.
Just treating Li Zaijun as a little girlfriend, can’t take it seriously.
But after those words fell, Shen Lin laughed aloud, pulled Li Zaijun into his arms with one hand, and asked:
"Miss Bai, how do you see that? Do I look like someone who loves to play? You shouldn’t joke like that."
Then his tone paused a bit, looked at Li Zaijun, and said with a faint smile: "It’s best to clarify, otherwise this little girl at home definitely won’t forgive me."
After saying this, for a moment, the woman named Bai was speechless.
Finally, she laughed and said:
"I’m really sorry, I overcomplicated things. After all, I thought Shen needed a capable helpmate by his side, a woman who could support his career."
Though she apologized, she revealed both what she should and shouldn’t say.
Shen Lin chuckled lightly, then looked at Li Zaijun, nudged her with his elbow, and said:
"Honey, what do you think?"
Being spoken to like this, it’s uncertain how well the little girl can cope, or if she’ll keep him out of the bedroom tonight.
But unexpectedly, Li Zaijun didn’t seem angry at all and said very calmly:
"Actually, I think this sister is right, many striving men need a capable helpmate to elevate their careers, but I think maybe those people aren’t strong enough. True strength means not being affected even if the woman behind is useless."
As she spoke, she nodded to Shen Lin and said:
"So you’re very strong to keep indulging this little fool by your side."
These words of praise made Shen Lin a bit proud, and he couldn’t stop smiling.
Finally, he hugged her shoulders, leaned in and kissed her, saying sweetly:
"Little fool, no one can call you a little dummy, not even yourself."
Li Zaijun: "..."
Listening to the intimate sounds behind, the woman in front simply couldn’t look at the rear-view mirror of the car anymore.
Her expression was particularly intriguing, and she didn’t say much throughout the journey.
"Miss Bai, your place is near, where would you like to stop?"
The driver asked as they drove near a villa area.
After the woman reported her address, she was ready to get off, but before the car stopped, she said to Shen Lin:
"Shen, today’s project discussion was very enjoyable, but as for cooperation, you should wait for my news. Thanks for bringing me back."
After a brief farewell, they both left.
On the way back, the driver couldn’t help asking: "Shen, what did Miss Bai mean? Didn’t she say the contract was finalized?"
After all, it’s a three-billion-dollar contract.
Shen Lin rubbed Li Zaijun’s head and said meaningfully:
"Probably she saw me showing affection, and got envious, jealous, and resentful."
