Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“But my mom wouldn’t agree…”
“Everything depends on one’s efforts.” The woman on the other end whispered something and smiled. “Between the two, who do you think your mother will choose?”
Li Zhongjin thought for a while and suddenly understood something. He smiled.
“Alright, 1’11 try to do as you say.”
Coincidentally, he had a ready-made person on hand.
A lowly daughter-in-law with a shameful status exchanged for Zhen Group’s shares, in the future, could become a huge piece of meat that the Li family could eat in the future.
He believed that his mother would know what to choose.
For so many years, no one in the Zhen family had ever looked up to him.
Whether it was Old Lady Zhen or ZhenYiping, they all talked about him in a disapproving tone, as if he was already a piece of trash.
Even the servants treated him with contempt.
His parents did want him to go to Zhen Group to gain experience and learn something.
No matter how polite they were, Old Lady Zhen and Zhen Yiping refused to allow this.
At first, the Li family thought that they only had trivial things to be concerned about. However, Shen Hanyu suddenly appeared, yet he was able to hold a high position and receive all kinds of favor. No matter how he thought about it, Li Zhongj in felt that it was unfair.
Not to mention his relatives, even his friends were making sarcastic remarks.
Just thinking about it made Li Zhongjin angry.
Hmph, he had to enter Zhen Group no matter what!
Li Zhongjin picked up a gla.s.s of wine and slowly drank it. It was rare for him to use his brain that was used to eating, drinking, and playing to think about problems.
He glanced at the phone number in his hand. It was an overseas number.
But this woman seemed to be very familiar with the Zhen family, Shen Hanyu, and everything in the country.
Li Zhongjin didn’t believe her at first, but when she said that Zhen Chongming would soon become the chairman and could help him enter Zhen Group, the former ended up being right.
Although Zhen Chongming’s downfall happened too quickly and he couldn’t join Zhen Group, this woman’s idea of getting him shares was a good one.
Who exactly was she? She spared no effort to help him, but she did not want anything in return.
Was the other party really so capable of making Shen Hanyu unable to take care of himself?
She even said that as long as he was willing, the Zhen family would belong to the Li family sooner or later?

Old Lady Zhen was very reluctant to part with Shen Hanyu and Sang Qianqian. After dinner, she asked them to stay and chat for a long time.
Zhen Zhu had just taken over the company and had too many questions she wanted to ask. She hated that Shen Hanyu was leaving tomorrow, so she had to seize the time and pick the most important questions to ask.
The old lady looked at them with relief. She held Sang Qianqian’s hand and whispered many words to her.
At this moment, Sang Qianqian’s phone suddenly rang. It was a message from an unknown number.
She clicked on it. [I can’t believe Shen Hanyu forgave you after seeing this photo. Do you think he really doesn’t care, or is he already filled with hatred?]
Along with the news, there were also several photos.
It was a photo taken that night. Her clothes were disheveled as she leaned in Xie Shi’an’s arms. Under Ruan Xiaodie’s deliberate arrangement, the picture was too much.
Sang Qianqian only took a glance before her face turned pale.
She subconsciously looked up at Shen Hanyu, who was patiently answering Zhen Zhu’s questions and did not notice her.
She then received a second message, I Are you sure you want to go back to Ming City with him? Hehe, the ending 1 arranged for you did not include this.]
Sang Qianqian stood up abruptly and went to the bathroom.
As expected, the call couldn’t get through.
She felt all the blood in her body rush to the top of her head. Her fingers unconsciously clenched into fists, and her nails almost dug into her palms.
If Ruan Xiaodie was right in front of her, she would have killed her by now.
After a long time, Sang Qianqian turned on the tap and poured some cold water on her face. She took a few deep breaths.
She looked at herself in the mirror on the sink and saw that her expression had returned to normal. Then, she returned to the living room.
However, compared to before, she was still a little uneasy and spoke much less.
Shen Hanyu saw her absent-minded look from the corner of his eye. He said a few words to Old Lady Zhen and Zhen Zhu before they got up and left.
Throughout the journey, Sang Qianqian looked out of the window in silence. Shen Hanyu thought that she was worried about her brother and did not want to disturb her.
When they returned to the small courtyard and were packing their luggage, she was absent-minded. First, she had picked up the wrong thing, and then she was in a hurry and knocked over the stack of books that he had already arranged for her.
“I’ll do it. You go to sleep first.”
He held her hand which was about to pick up her clothes, and noticed it was exceptionally cold.
He was slightly surprised. “Are you not feeling well?”
Sang Qianqian shook her head. The more concerned he was, the more uncomfortable she felt.
“Hanyu…”
Before she could finish her words, she was already sobbing.
“What happened?”
His soft and gentle voice fell into her ears. His rough fingers wiped away the tears on her face. “Don’t cry. Tell me slowly.”
“Believe it or not, that night,”
Sang Qianqian held back her tears. “Nothing happened between Xie Shi’an and me… Those photos… She did it on purpose…”
Those photos…
Shen Hanyu closed his eyes.
Before he boarded the plane early in the morning, he had already received Ruan Xiaodie’s message and saw those photos.
It was like a scalding iron, and with just a glance, it ruthlessly branded his heart, causing him unbearable pain.
He was filled with anger but had nowhere to vent it.
He was afraid that Sang Qianqian would be provoked and that something would happen to her, so he could only endure it and pretend that nothing had happened.
However, how could he not mind the fact that he was still a good fighter?
He would definitely make the culprit pay a painful price.
But facing Sang Qianqian, he didn’t dare to ask or say anything.
He never thought that she would take the initiative to explain this matter.
“I know. You don’t need to say it was nothing, even if something really happened,”
Shen I lanyu’s eyes were dark and deep. His voice was unusually low, but his tone was still calm. “I told you that 1 don’t mind. You don’t have to explain or take it to heart.”
His words were like a gentle breeze that gently caressed the surface of a lake, the water gently rippling in the lake. However, it made Sang Qianqian’s heart tremble heavily.
“But Ruan Xiaodie is just too much. How could she do this…”
Her grievance from that night seemed to surge out at this moment, and her tears fell.
Shen Hanyu held her in his arms and gently wiped her tears. He comforted her gently, “It’s all in the past. Don’t think about those things anymore.”
When her tears finally stopped, she calmed down a little.
He dragged her to the bed and pressed her shoulders to make her sit down. “Sleep first. 1’11 pack the luggage outside.”
The lights in the bedroom were turned off. Shen Hanyu was holding the warm yellow wall lamp in the living room as he lowered his head to pack his luggage.
Sang Qianqian didn’t let him close the door, so she could see him as soon as she looked up. He was meticulously putting her clothes and books into the box.
Her heart was filled with an indescribable warmth, solidity, and peace of mind. Unknowingly, she fell asleep.
The next day, when they arrived at the airport, Jian Zheng had already brought Sang Minglang onto the plane. Ruan Xiaoshuang also came to send them off..
