The poor husband I picked up turned out to be from a wealthy family

Chapter 517 Yan Bei meets Shen Qing on a business trip

the next day.

This is also the first day of his official business trip.

I will be attending an important multinational meeting soon.

Yan Bei explained the situation to Zhang Dan, who was waiting for him at the hotel, and he went to the meeting himself.

After leaving the hotel, he took a taxi to the conference center.

Yan Bei dragged his tired body into the venue of this important multinational conference abroad.

As the company's president, this business trip was a daunting undertaking, crucial for the company's future international presence. Dressed in a crisp, tailored suit, his gaze pierced and focused, he exuded an undeniable authority.

The meeting was about to begin. Yan Bei sat at the side of the conference table, sorting through documents. Just then, the translation team entered the room. Yan Bei looked up, his gaze instantly fixed on a familiar figure—Shen Qing, his ex-wife.

Shen Qing was wearing a simple and elegant professional suit, with her hair tied up, revealing her slender neck, and her face was delicate and indifferent.

She walked briskly towards the translation area, her eyes calm, as if she hadn't noticed Yan Bei's presence at all. However, Yan Bei's heart was filled with ripples, and those past memories came flooding back like a tide.

The meeting began, and Shen Qing's performance was professional and outstanding. She fluently translated the views of both sides, her voice clear and pleasant, and her logic rigorous. Yan Bei seemed to be focused on the meeting content, but his thoughts couldn't help but drift to Shen Qing.

Shen Qing, who was standing by, seemed to have noticed Yan Bei as well and showed a surprised expression, but she quickly got back to work.

He looked at her concentrating on her work, his heart filled with mixed emotions.

During the break, Yan Bei couldn't hold back any longer and walked towards Shen Qing. Shen Qing was sorting documents with her head down when she felt someone approaching. She looked up and her eyes met Yan Bei's. At that moment, the air seemed to freeze.

"Shen Qing, long time no see." Yan Bei was the first to break the silence, his voice a little hoarse.

"Long time no see." Shen Qing's voice was calm, without much expression on her face.

Yan Bei opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but he didn't know where to begin. Shen Qing looked at him, a subtle flicker of emotion in her eyes, but she quickly regained her composure. "Mr. Yan, if there's nothing else to do at work, I'll go prepare the next part of the translation."

After she finished speaking, she turned and left, leaving Yan Bei standing there, looking at her back with mixed feelings in his heart.

He never expected to meet Shen Qing here.

He knew there was no possibility between them, but he couldn't help but think of their past. He also thought of their two children. He hadn't seen them yet, and didn't know what they looked like now.

In fact, he really wanted to have a good talk with Shen Qing and talk about the child, but he didn't know how to start.

……

After the meeting.

Yan Bei returned to the hotel.

He was still thinking about what happened when he met Shen Qing just now.

It wasn't until he saw Zhang Dan walking towards him that he came back to his senses.

"Why didn't you tell me you were back? If I hadn't seen that your door was open, I wouldn't have known." Zhang Dan said.

Actually, Yan Bei was a little distracted just now and forgot to close the door.

"I just came back. You go out first! I have some documents to modify later." Yan Bei said.

Zhang Dan said, "Why are you chasing me away as soon as I come in? Can't you spare a moment to talk to me?"

"I said I'm a little busy. Please leave first."

"Okay, okay, go ahead and get busy! What an attitude!"

After saying that, Zhang Dan left Yan Bei's room and closed the door.

After Zhang Dan left, Yan Bei realized that his attitude was a bit bad. But he did have important work to do! So without thinking about anything else, he turned on his computer and started working.

At the same time, Shen Qing was resting, but her heart was heavy.

She didn't know how she met Yan Bei here.

It really couldn't be more coincidental.

The scene of seeing Yan Bei just now was both familiar and unfamiliar.

It seemed as if there was nothing left for them to talk about.

……

At this time, Shen Qing's phone rang.

Tired, she took out her cell phone from her bag.

I saw that it was my good friend Wang Youyou calling.

She forced a smile and answered the phone.

The corners of his mouth unconsciously raised, and he pressed the answer button: "Youyou, why did you think of calling me?"

Wang Youyou's cheerful voice came from the other end of the phone: "Qingqing, you're married, and I haven't called you yet to ask how your married life is going!"

"Don't mention it. The day after I got married, my boss asked me to go on a business trip to Country C. I'm still in Country C now! I won't be back until next week!" Shen Qing said.

"Oh, if you hadn't told me, I would have thought you were enjoying a sweet married life!" said Wang Youyou on the phone.

"Alas, but I can't give up my career. I have to choose one!"

"Yes, I support you."

"By the way, Youyou, I want to tell you something very, very clever." Shen Qing said.

"What's the matter? Tell me quickly." Wang Youyou on the phone seemed to be impatient to hear it.

Shen Qing then spoke slowly: "Youyou, do you know? I met Yan Bei during the meeting just now."

There was a sudden silence on the other end of the line for two seconds. Wang Youyou asked in surprise, "Ah? Yan Bei? Why is he in Country C? And why is he in the place where you work on a business trip?"

"So, I think this is really a coincidence."

Shen Qing took a deep breath: "He came to attend the meeting, and as an interpreter, I naturally met him on the scene."

"So... did you guys talk?" Wang Youyou asked cautiously. Shen Qing frowned slightly: "I just said hello briefly. After all, it's a work environment and there wasn't much time to communicate.

Wang Youyou's tone was filled with worry: "Qingqing, when you see him, will you feel... uncomfortable? After all, you used to..."

Shen Qing interrupted her: "Youyou, it's been so long, I've let it go a long time ago. I just didn't expect to meet him in this kind of situation, it was a bit unexpected."

"That's good. I was worried that you would be upset again. You are so outstanding now, you can't be affected by the past." Wang Youyou said seriously.

"I've already married Liu Ye, how could I still have any thoughts about Yan Bei?" Shen Qing said.

"Yeah, by the way, when will you come back? We sisters haven't gotten together for a long time." Wang Youyou asked expectantly.

"I'll come back to see you when I'm done with this, and then we can have a good time together."

"Okay, okay, I'm waiting for you." Wang Youyou said excitedly.

"Okay, now you should take good care of yourself and take good care of yourself and the baby in your belly." Shen Qing said.

"I understand. I just miss you so much right now. I haven't seen you for a long time." Wang Youyou said a little sadly on the phone.

"I miss you too. I'll go see you when I return home."

"Uh-huh."
