My CEO Husband Has Some Issues

Chapter 522: An Unexpected Visitor at This Time
“Here she comes.” Cui Jiangjing arrived first, pulling out a dining chair and promptly taking a seat without ceremony, his expression exaggerated as he said, “Look at all these dishes, they seem quite good.”

“Everyone, please have a seat.” Lin Zhiya’s eyes and brows radiated joy as she was calling others to sit down.

Just then, an incongruous voice sounded from outside the door.

“Mrs. Lin.”

Shen Siyuan was wearing a dress of blue and white today, fresh and elegant, her tall figure and delicate features exceptionally beautiful.

In her hand was an exquisitely designed paper bag, as she stood poised at the entrance of the living room.

Next to her stood the old butler of the Li Family.

Lin Zhiya didn’t expect Shen Siyuan to suddenly appear at this time; she was taken aback and didn’t manage to respond immediately to Siyuan’s greeting.

The old butler lowered his head at that moment and walked in respectfully, saying softly, “Madam, Miss Shen just came to visit and asked if you were at home, so I led her in.”

Lin Zhiya furrowed her brows and swept him a glance, a hint of dissatisfaction in her eyes.

He was well aware that Yan was here today and knew Siyuan’s feelings for Shengxiao. Seeing Siyuan coming over, why didn’t he find an excuse to send her back? And why did he bring her in at this time… Although she wasn’t happy that the butler took the initiative to bring her in, Siyuan had already entered, and considering that Lin Zhiya had watched Siyuan grow up and had been called “Mrs. Lin” by her for so long, she couldn’t just send her away. Snapping back to reality, she finally spoke, “Oh, Siyuan, what brings you here all of a sudden, you didn’t even call me. Come in, come in. We’re just about to have dinner.”

Her attitude was neither cold nor as warm as the one she had towards Rong Yan, just an elder’s normal demeanor towards a younger one.

This attitude of hers, to any discerning eye, clearly showed she was protecting Rong Yan.

Cui Jiangjing was also caught off guard by Shen Siyuan’s sudden visit to the Li Family Villa, and he glanced unintentionally towards Siyuan, his eyes conveying a clear message for her to leave.

The last time they met outside the mall, he had already greeted Siyuan, reasoning that if she happened to come across a family gathering by accident, it was best to find an excuse and leave early.

But Shen Siyuan, as if she didn’t see the look he gave her, fixed her gaze on the most dazzling man in the crowd. Her gaze then shifted to Rong Yan, filled with resentment, incomprehension, and disapproval. She withdrew her gaze quickly, turned her face to meet Lin Zhiya’s, and revealed a well-behaved smile as she stepped forward, “I heard you were back from your vacation abroad, so I wanted to surprise you. I came over quietly, not expecting such good luck to coincide with mealtime.”

Cui Jiangjing watched her come in, his usually unchanging smile on his graceful face faded as he stared at her.

Shen Siyuan was aware of his gaze on her, but unwilling to accept it, she automatically disregarded Cui Jiangjing.

After leaving the mall that day, she had hidden in her bed, crying bitterly and thinking a lot.

No matter how she thought about it, she couldn’t accept that the man she had secretly loved since childhood had fallen for such a female star.

What did Rong Yan have?

A family?

The Rong Family was nothing more than a third-rate household in Capital City, not even considered a prominent family, at best they were nouveau riches.

Rong Yan wasn’t even the favored one in a household of nouveau riches; the complex family relationships at home were a mess and hideously unseemly.
