A luxury car slowly stopped in front of the gate of Deng Garden. As soon as the door opened, a well-trained attendant came forward and respectfully opened the door.

A handsome silver-haired man stepped out of the car. He casually adjusted the collar of his windbreaker, and that action seemed to carry an innate confidence and grace.

The housekeeper had been waiting for a long time. When he saw the man getting off the car, he hurried forward and said with his head bowed, "Master, you have worked hard on the journey. The young mistress said that she has prepared a meal to welcome you."

Deng Shentong nodded expressionlessly, and walked straight into the garden without stopping. Hearing the housekeeper's words, he couldn't help but sigh softly, with a hint of helplessness flashing in his eyes.

"I had already eaten outside before I came back. Tell her that she doesn't need to bother with these things anymore and just leave it to the servants to handle." His voice was as calm as water, but the majesty contained in it made people dare not question it at all.

However, the butler did not seem to be ready to give up. He carefully raised his eyes to glance at his young master's face, and then followed him relentlessly, saying: "But... the young mistress said that she spent a lot of effort to prepare this table of food, and she specially invited the master to enjoy it. So, please come over no matter what."

Deng Shentong's footsteps paused slightly, but he quickly returned to his original rhythm.

There was a hint of fatigue on his delicate face, and his originally bright eyes became somewhat dim, but he still raised his eyebrows and asked calmly, "Did the uncle agree?"

The butler followed him silently, always keeping a proper distance. Hearing the young master's question, he hesitated for a moment, then lowered his head and replied softly, "The master said he was not feeling well and declined."

As the two of them were talking, they had already walked into Deng Shentong's courtyard.

Deng Shentong sneered, as if he had expected this answer. He took off his windbreaker and handed it to the butler behind him in a dashing manner.

The butler did not dare to delay and quickly stepped forward, carefully took the windbreaker, and then hung it neatly on the hanger by the door.

"That's it. Uncle knows that I can't be embarrassed. Just tell Madam this."

Although he and Zhu Yunque had been married for a year, he had never set foot in that woman's courtyard.

To put it bluntly, this marriage is just a tool to maintain interests. He doesn't like Zhu Yunque, so they won't have any more interactions.

Zhu Zheng will step down sooner or later, and he doesn't want such a woman to influence his judgment.

From the day Zhu Yunque came in, he made it clear that she could live the life she wanted, but she always pestered him.

Even Ipsilon would feel exhausted physically and mentally after running around and submitting complicated reports.

But when I get home, I still have to deal with these trivial matters.

Only when you are alone can you get a moment of peace.

Deng Shentong turned his head and no longer looked at the housekeeper. He strode to the sofa in the middle of the living room and sat down. At the same time, he stretched and pulled up his shirt, revealing a tight waist and abdomen.

Then he stretched his muscles and let out a few comfortable sighs.

However, not long after the butler left, he received another message from Zhu Yunque, saying that she would come to his room to give him a massage.

Deng Shentong certainly knew what she was thinking.

As Zhu Zheng got older and closer to the moment of stepping down, the crisis in his heart became more and more serious. Both Zhu Yunque and Zhu Zheng were eager to have a child so that they could be firmly tied to the Deng family.

Deng Shentong frowned, sat up from the sofa, and sent a message to Bai Chunyu.

Then he put on his windbreaker again and walked out, waving his hand to call the maid, saying, "If the young lady comes looking for you, just tell her that I went out for a drink."

For some unknown reason, he came to the Password Bar again, but this time he was just in high spirits and did not inform the boss to prepare a luxurious box. Instead, he chose an inconspicuous seat in the corner and sat down.

He ordered a glass of wine and sipped it slowly.

Just then, Bai Chunyu saw him and walked towards him.

"Captain, why are you drinking here alone?" Bai Chunyu sat down next to Deng Shentong.

Deng Shentong smiled bitterly and said, "My family is too annoying."

Bai Chunyu nodded in understanding: "Why don't we explain it to Miss Zhu, maybe she will understand."

He was Deng Shentong's confidant, so he naturally knew the inside story. He still called Zhu Yunque "Miss Zhu" instead of "Madam".

Deng Shentong shook his head. "I have nothing to say to her. Even if I did, she can't go against Zhu Zheng's wishes. This is just a deal between us."

Bai Chunyu sighed, "But after all, you are still nominally married now, you can't keep going like this."

Deng Shentong was silent for a while and took a sip of wine. "Let's talk about it later. I just want to relax now."

The two chatted casually for a while. At this time, the sharp-eyed Bai Chunyu looked towards a booth in the bar and said, "Huh?" "Isn't this the waiter from last time..."

Deng Shentong looked in the direction Bai Chunyu was looking suspiciously, and saw a few noble ladies in luxurious clothes sitting in the booths next to them, and next to them stood a few well-dressed and fashionable men, who were attentively and attentively serving them drinks.

Deng Shentong recognized these women, they were all family members of senior officials in Blizzard City. However, at this moment, his attention was not focused on these people, but attracted by other things.

Among the group of men dressed up in fancy clothes, a tall, black-haired young man stood out.

Different from the others, he was wearing a simple work uniform. He did not chat and laugh like the others, but just poured wine for the guests silently. He looked a little dull.

Deng Shentong took a sip from his wine glass, but his eyes were always fixed on the gloomy young man's face. He couldn't help but chuckle, "How could anyone come to him with such a bitter and vengeful look on his face?"

Bai Chunyu had never expected that his captain would be interested in a mere waiter, so he followed his gaze and casually agreed, "Well... maybe this person has some special qualities..."

However, before he could finish his words, he was shocked by the scene before him - one of the women quickly leaned her head against the black-haired young man's arms, and her carefully manicured hands with bright nail polish began to dishonestly stroke the other's strong and muscular body, and she began to tease him in a coquettish voice.

Seeing this, Bai Chunyu couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. When he was about to say something, he suddenly heard a dull sound.

He turned around and found that it was Deng Shentong who slammed the wine glass in his hand heavily onto the table.

Deng Shentong's eyes were extremely cold as he stared at the black-haired young man. The aura he exuded was creepy and chilling.

"I remembered that I still have some things to deal with, so I'll be leaving first." He suddenly stood up without any warning, without even turning his head, and turned around and left the bar resolutely.

Bai Chunyu was a little overwhelmed by this sudden change, but he subconsciously stood up and quickly chased in the direction where Deng Shentong left.

"Captain, wait for me! What happened?"

However, at this moment, Zhang Yi was completely unaware of the movement that was happening so close to him.

All his attention was focused on the woman's rude and offensive behavior, and the hair on his body stood up.

However, this woman was a distinguished guest in the bar after all, and Zhang Yi couldn't directly reject her.

Therefore, he could only choose to move aside and said in a low voice: "Madam, please respect yourself. I am just an ordinary waiter."

As soon as he said this, he was immediately laughed at by the women present.

Zhang Yi’s refusal made the woman angry and embarrassed. She stood up suddenly and raised her hand to slap Zhang Yi.

At this moment, a strong hand grabbed the woman's wrist. Zhang Yi looked up in surprise and saw Deng Shentong's cold face.

"You dare to touch my people? Do you want to die?" Deng Shentong's voice was full of threats. The woman looked at him in horror. She obviously didn't expect that this seemingly ordinary waiter had such a powerful backing.

Deng Shentong let go of the woman's hand and pulled Zhang Yi behind him.

"Go away," he said calmly. The woman left the booth in dismay, and the other male PRs also scattered.

"Are you okay?" Deng Shentong turned around and looked at Zhang Yi with concern.

Just when Zhang Yi could no longer suppress his inner impulse and was about to loudly ask the other party whether he still remembered everything, suddenly, a burning pain came from his cheek.

He looked carefully and saw the woman still looking at him with a cold and angry expression. She kept cursing him for being ignorant and even spitting on his face.

It was only then that Zhang Yi suddenly realized that everything that had just happened was just his hallucination. How could Deng Shentong remember him? Even if he really remembered him, he would probably only feel disgust towards him, let alone help him.

There are not so many lucky things in this world.

Faced with the woman's rebuke and attack, Zhang Yi neither fought back nor responded.

He just stood there blankly, as if he had lost his soul. Fortunately, Lin Yue noticed something was wrong and came over to help him out.

……

Deng Shentong left and came back to Deng Garden in a depressed mood.

At this time, Zhu Yunque happened to come over. When she saw Deng Shentong, her eyes lit up and she went to him and said, "Why are you here? I've been looking for you everywhere."

Deng Shentong said indifferently: "I just came out for a walk." Zhu Yunque didn't care about his attitude and said to himself: "I asked the chef to make your favorite dish today, let's go home and eat together."

Deng Shentong frowned and said, "I'm not hungry, you eat it yourself." After that, he turned and left.

Zhu Yunque was stunned. She didn't expect Deng Shentong to be so decisive. This time he didn't even give her any face.

She bit her lip, but she was not discouraged. After all, she was no longer the reckless girl. For her own future and the Zhu family, she could endure it.
