Chapter 120 A Necessary Warning

"Rumors?"

"What rumors could possibly travel from Xinghua City to the capital?"

Shen Mingsun's expression immediately became somewhat uneasy.

He turned to look at Yu Xinchao beside him and subconsciously lowered his voice.

This topic really shouldn't be discussed here.

Ye Kai, sitting opposite him, clearly also felt that this topic was not easy to discuss, and he was quite cautious in his speech. However, the matter was right in front of him, and he had no choice but to bite the bullet and confront it.

Since ancient times, there has never been a prospective son-in-law trying to persuade his father-in-law about the relationship between men and women.

Unfortunately, this bizarre situation happened to Ye Kai.

"Should I avoid this for now?"

Yu Xinchao hadn't expected that someone would call Shen Mingsun right in front of her to talk about their relationship, and she immediately felt a little embarrassed.

While not exactly restless, feeling uneasy is a normal reaction.

"Director Yu, you eat first."

"I'm going to the restroom."

Shen Mingsun was naturally embarrassed to kick Yu Xinchao out to make a phone call, so he told her to continue eating while he took his phone to the restroom and then discussed things in detail with Ye Kai.

"OK."

Yu Xinchao nodded slightly, his expression gradually calming down.

She glanced at Shen Mingsun heading towards the restroom, and her restless mood suddenly calmed down considerably. She couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

The love life of middle-aged people is truly empty and boring.

"Did Jiajia say something to you?"

Shen Mingsun felt a bit of a headache. The red wine was good today, so this shouldn't have happened.

Only his beloved daughter, Shen Jiayi, could get Ye Kai to call from a thousand miles away just to talk to him about topics related to men and women.

Thinking that such a small matter had actually reached Ye Kai, who was in the capital, Shen Mingsun suddenly realized that the problem seemed to have become somewhat serious, and the gloom in his heart seemed to have become much heavier.

"The problem isn't who told me, but what they said."

"Uncle Shen, you don't want this little thing between you and Director Yu to reach Director Jiang's ears, do you? Women are very sensitive. If she hears rumors, who knows what trouble it might cause."

Ye Kai also felt somewhat exhausted.

What sins did I commit in my past life that I have to worry about Shen Jiayi in this life?

"Tsk."

Upon hearing Ye Kai's words, Shen Mingsun's face also wrinkled.

Could it be that the relationship between myself and Director Yu has really gone beyond that of ordinary friends?

Thinking about this problem, Mayor Shen felt a little uneasy.

Having said that, Ye Kai felt he had made his point clear, so he chatted with Shen Mingsun for a few more minutes before hanging up.

"What's going on here?"

Shen Mingsun put away his phone, washed his face at the sink, looked at his elegant self in the mirror, and finally couldn't help but complain.

At this point, he also realized a problem: after becoming the mayor, he could no longer do as he pleased in many things. Any slight movement could be magnified and scrutinized, and then a bunch of faults could be found.

Ye Kai has only heard rumors and given him a heads-up; if things continue to develop like this, who knows what kind of scandals will emerge?

After reflecting on his actions, Shen Mingsun returned to the private room.

When Mayor Shen looked at Yu Xinchao again, he silently recited the Heart-Clearing Mantra several times to calm himself down.

"Mayor Shen, I've finished eating."

Yu Xinchao's expression calmed down, but a slight regret and reluctance were revealed in her eyes when she looked at Shen Mingsun. It was clear that during the time Shen Mingsun was on the phone, she had realized that her recent behavior seemed to be too attentive and may have crossed some boundaries.

Taking another step forward could very well lead to falling into an abyss.

While Shen Mingsun was on the phone, Yu Xinchao had already packed up her things and taken back her handbag, looking like she was about to leave at any moment.

"Alright."

"Keep in touch."

Shen Mingsun naturally noticed Yu Xinchao's change in mood and suddenly felt a little sad. He nodded in response.

The two retrieved their personal belongings and then slowly walked out of Tingyu Xiaozhu, one after the other.

The driver opened the car door, put the two of them in the car, and then drove directly to the hotel where the film crew was staying. He dropped Yu Xinchao off, watched her enter the hotel, and then turned around and returned to Yayuan Community.

……

"Why are you back so early tonight?"

Seeing Shen Mingsun suddenly return home, Director Jiang was somewhat surprised. She helped him take off his coat and change into his pajamas, and then asked him a question.

"Director Yu treated us to dinner tonight, and we finished early."

"Where's Jiajia?"

Shen Mingsun replied, and then asked about Shen Jiayi's situation.

"Jiajia is practicing in her room after she came back."

"Director Yu has high standards, and Jiajia has made considerable progress during this period. She should be preparing for tomorrow's filming."

"Old Shen, do you think Jiajia will go down the path of the entertainment industry in the future?"

Speaking of this matter, Jiang Xin seemed somewhat conflicted.

After all, she knew very well how chaotic the entertainment industry was, and she was filled with all sorts of worries about her daughter's future choices.

"Probably not."

"Although I don't know what Jiajia will think, I know that Ye Kai will definitely not let Jiajia walk into that big dye vat of entertainment."

"Even if Jiajia really wants to enter the entertainment industry, Ye Kai will find a way to pave the way for her."

Thinking about Ye Kai's various antics, Mayor Shen was a little annoyed, but he also had to admire his ability to cause trouble and had full confidence in him.

If it weren't for Ye Kai's appearance, their family might have collapsed long ago.

In this respect, Shen Mingsun's trust in Ye Kai surpassed that of anyone else.

Shen Mingsun turned on the TV and switched to the news channel.

Watching the news every day is a good habit. As a grassroots cadre, Shen Mingsun takes this matter very seriously. He will look for important information points from the snippets of the news, and then carefully study and extract the information that is useful to him.

Although nothing major has happened recently, some areas have experienced small-scale flooding, which reminded Shen Mingsun to pay close attention to the city's flood prevention and control efforts.

As the mayor, Shen Mingsun had far too many issues to focus on and couldn't afford to be distracted for even a moment.

My daughter Shen Jiayi's bedroom door has been closed. I don't know what she's doing in there.

Shen Mingsun stayed in the living room for over an hour, but Shen Jiayi didn't come out to greet him.

"Perhaps after my daughter asked Ye Kai to remind me, she was unsure how to face me?"

Thinking of this possibility, Shen Mingsun felt a little disappointed, but there was no other way.

In life, all sorts of unexpected situations will always happen.

But as long as necessary vigilance is maintained, no major mistakes will be made.
