Shen Chizheng's thoughts were tumultuous, and he remained silent for a long time.
In fact, there was nothing to hide. The things in the newspaper were his handiwork, deliberately done to make Su Yan see them.
Now, she saw them as he wished, but he didn't feel the imagined satisfaction; instead, there lingered an indescribable feeling.
"Yanyan, I'm sorry, something came up on my end yesterday, and I couldn't take care of you." After a while, he casually fabricated a reason, "Fang Yanshu is a friend of mine whom I recently met. I ran into her at an event last night, and we just exchanged a few words..."
Su Yan's eyelids lowered slightly, not sure if she believed his words or not.
Just a few words?
She clearly saw the photo in the newspaper, showing them kissing.
But with him saying that, she didn't even know how to refute him.
Even with the photo right there, even though she had enough reasons to prove that he did more than just talk with that woman last night.
