Chapter 17: Escape Again

Shen Yuchu looked at him: “Talk about what? Didn’t Captain Lin hear me? I have a meeting soon. Get out of the way!”

Lin Xuan pulled Shen Yuchu, “Why didn’t you tell me you came to Yan Du City?”

“No need!”

“Where are you going? I’ll take you!” He asked the question, but didn’t seem to want an answer. Instead, he naturally picked up his coat and put it back on her.

Shen Yuchu pushed him away, trying to remove the coat he’d put on her.

“I’m leaving!” She didn’t know why, but she felt like if she didn’t leave now, she wouldn’t be able to later.

“Put it on. Don’t dress like this, there are many men outside.”

Shen Yuchu: “…”

She took a step back, creating distance between herself and Lin Xuan. Her gaze fell on the clothes Li Chunqiu had put down, and the clothes Lin Xuan was holding.

Two bars and one star.

The rank on the woman’s clothes matched the rank on the coat Lin Xuan had taken off and given her.

However, the rank on Captain Zhao’s shoulder was one bar and three stars.

Shen Yuchu said politely: “Captain Lin, please take your coat back.

It’s best to avoid misunderstandings with your wife, especially since… you have to pick up your child today?

I’m here to discuss the prices of tents and field mats.

If you, Captain Lin, have no objections, please sign, so I can go back and report.

If there are any issues, let’s stop here, and we can discuss the rest later.” Shen Yuchu maintained an official smile.

“Shen Yuchu, how can I explain it to you so you’ll believe me?”

Shen Yuchu didn’t respond, instead, she bypassed him, unwilling to get entangled with him.

“Captain Zhao, goodbye!” After saying this, she walked out, her high heels clicking on the floor.

Lin Xuan frowned, grabbed his coat, quickly followed, and regardless of everything, put it back on Shen Yuchu.

Shen Yuchu suddenly turned around, shocked by the force with which he put the coat on her.

Because she was wearing twenty-centimeter high heels, her body leaned forward, almost causing her to fall.

Lin Xuan seized the opportunity—a cliché moment!

Shen Yuchu looked back at him, both their eyes trembling slightly.

Such close proximity…

Such close contact…

The disparity in strength between men and women, and… the awkwardness of their current posture!

Even Captain Zhao was stunned. But everyone had their own thoughts. Didn’t Captain Lin have Li Chunqiu?

Even if he had feelings for Director Shen now, it wouldn’t be right!

But clearly, he knew Director Shen!

Zhao Cheng immediately interrupted, “Uh, that… Director Shen…” He deliberately paused.

The two were just staring at each other without connection, but were suddenly interrupted, and both came back to their senses.

Shen Yuchu slowly stood up, using the table in the conference room for support.

Lin Xuan’s face was slightly gloomy, but his gaze kept glancing at Shen Yuchu.

Shen Yuchu took off his coat and threw it on the conference table, “I’m not used to wearing other people’s clothes.”

Lin Xuan: “That’s mine!”

“I’m a neat freak!”

Lin Xuan looked at her, frowning: “Why didn’t I notice you were a neat freak before?”

Shen Yuchu stopped, turned to Zhao Cheng: “Are you married?”

Zhao Cheng: “…”

What? Was she asking him?

Zhao Cheng’s brain spun quickly, and then, his mouth blurted out: “No!”

Hearing this, Shen Yuchu suddenly smiled. Then, without saying anything, she turned and left.

Lin Xuan’s face was extremely unpleasant, “Shen Yuchu, you’re my wife, what do you mean by asking him if he’s married?”

Zhao Cheng: “…”

He was completely stunned, initially feeling somewhat joyful. Now, Lin Xuan had suddenly poured a bucket of cold water on him.

“Captain? Captain, Director Shen, she’s… she’s your loved one? Then, then Li Chunqiu, she… she still lives at your house…”

“Get out!” What’s it like to have a subordinate who directly punctures your tires?

Probably, just one word – Awesome!

Two words- Really Awesome!!

Three words – Super Awesome!!!

Lin Xuan glared fiercely at Zhao Cheng: “Five thousand meters on the track, get going!”

“Yes!”

As Zhao Cheng left the conference room, he glanced back at Shen Yuchu.

Shen Yuchu smiled softly, she raised her hand to block Zhao Cheng’s path. Seeing that she was a woman, Zhao Cheng put his hand on the door frame.

He didn’t dare to push past!

Shen Yuchu looked at Lin Xuan with beautiful eyes, “We’ve already divorced, are you punishing him because he was gossiping? Or because he told the truth?”

Lin Xuan stared at Shen Yuchu: “I didn’t let Chunqiu live at my house, I just pitied her, she’s raising a child alone and is struggling. She has no support or familiar people in this city, so sometimes she… she goes to my place to clean, clean the bedroom, or… or… tidy up.

But she definitely didn’t live there! Really, she really didn’t live there! I’ll accept any organizational investigation.”

Shen Yuchu glanced at Zhao Cheng, Zhao Cheng met Shen Yuchu’s gaze, then blushed and lowered his head.

Shen Yuchu lowered her eyes, “Captain Zhao, for future work, please liaise with my subordinate Xiao Zhang! I have something else to do, goodbye~”

After saying this, Shen Yuchu left without looking back.

Zhao Cheng looked at Lin Xuan, then turned and ran towards the track.

At this moment, he certainly wouldn’t stay put.

He definitely had to run! Even eight thousand meters, he would run.

Lin Xuan quickly chased after Shen Yuchu.

Shen Yuchu walked quickly forward, she saw from the corner of her eye that Lin Xuan was striding towards her.

However, his pace was clearly faster than hers. Moreover, he was more familiar with the layout of this camp area.

Shen Yuchu had only been here a few times, and the key was that she was a bit directionally challenged.

Now, without Captain Zhao’s guidance, she could hardly find the gate.

She had just said she had a meeting, it was all a lie. The purpose was to quickly escape.

However, as she walked quickly forward, she found that the footsteps behind her were no longer following.

She gradually slowed down, walking much slower.

Lin Xuan slowed his pace because he knew there was no way forward.

Ahead were fences and walls, he wanted to see where she would run.

-Sure enough, after Shen Yuchu walked forward carrying her white handbag, she discovered there was no way forward.

Damn!

Shen Yuchu suddenly stopped: I said, why didn’t Lin Xuan chase? It turned out he knew there was a wall and fence ahead.

Shen Yuchu saw that outside the camp area was a street, with a vendor selling Jianbing (savory pancakes), and the Jianbing vendor had a tricycle parked there.

Suddenly, Shen Yuchu narrowed her eyes, “Auntie, how much is a Jianbing?”

“One yuan each!”

“I’ll buy ten from you, park your tricycle by the fence, and help me get out, how about that?”

“Are you really buying ten?”

Shen Yuchu took out ten yuan and slipped it through the fence.

This auntie was indeed honest, she immediately parked her tricycle.

Lin Xuan: “…” He waited for a while, but Shen Yuchu didn’t come back, he became impatient and walked forward.

After he walked over, he saw something that shocked him.

He saw Shen Yuchu sitting on the fence, and the auntie outside was helping her, “Slowly, slowly, girl, slowly!”

Lin Xuan shouted: “Shen Yuchu!”
