This time, he was venturing to the northwest alone, free from Wenwen’s watchful presence, allowing him a sense of freedom.
“Moreover, the Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching, and Xiaoxiao will surely return for the banquet hosted by Little Aunt’s family. Unfortunately, I won’t make it back in time. If Xiaoxiao doesn’t attend, it might lead to unnecessary gossip. ”
At that point, speculations might arise, saying that Xiaoxiao disapproved of his parents adopting a daughter.
“Then…”
Zhou Hengyang interrupted his Wife, stating, “It’s okay. I have connections in the Northwest, and I know a lot of people. I can handle it.”
“Alright then! But please call me whenever the circ.u.mstances allow.”
Zhou Hengyang silently looked at her and nodded. “Okay, wait for me at home.” He preferred not to delve into more details.
Even though Zhou Hengyang chose to remain in the dark, Su Wen decided to confess everything upon his return from the Northwest. Regardless of how fantastical it might sound, she intended to reveal every detail to him.
Su Wen’s tearful eyes gazed affectionately at the man before her, her determination unwavering.
There was no hesitation or fear.
She was willing to offer him everything within her means.
Her heart, her body, her secrets.
Everything about her.
Zhou Hengyang left overnight to rescue Liu Chun in the northwest. Su Wen, alone in their vast house, spent the entire night in restlessness. Tossing and turning, she felt an overwhelming sadness.
In the middle of the night, she sat alone on the bed, yearning for Hengyang.
It had only been a few hours, and she felt his absence acutely.
She didn’t know where he was, and she heard the train journey wasn’t safe due to the presence of thieves. The Northwest was even more chaotic.
Sighing, Su Wen leaned against the pillow with wide-open eyes, her mind in disarray. Memories of events before and after his transmigration flooded her thoughts. Suddenly, she recalled the novel’s mention of Liu Chun’s incident in the Northwest.
The novel only briefly outlined Liu Chun’s business trip, a conflict with local influential figures, and an offence that led to his mysterious disappearance. Ultimately, Changhe’s leader, Zhou Hengyang, intervened personally.
Engaging in fierce battles for six months, Zhou Hengyang prevailed with cunning strategies, ruthless methods, and a substantial sum of money.
Despite encountering numerous dangers, Zhou Hengyang’s exceptional combat strength and sharp wit proved decisive. In the end, not only did they dominate the northwest market, but they also invested in various industries and acquired a mine in collaboration with others.
Additionally, Zhou Hengyang’s charismatic leadership and loyalty forged several brotherly bonds in the Northwest. Even sworn enemies from Liu Chun’s past became friends after facing off.
Returning from the Northwest six months later, Zhou Hengyang’s a.s.sets had multiplied significantly.
Su Wen furrowed her brow, finding some rea.s.surance in the success but couldn’t shake the ache in her heart, considering the perilous situations he had to navigate.
While the Northwest marked a pivotal point in Hengyang’s career, success always demanded significant effort and sacrifice.
Behind every triumph, there was a double payment in effort and price.
Su Wen closed her eyes, contemplating Hengyang’s fight for survival in the Northwest. As he embarked on this challenging journey, she knew she couldn’t remain in the province.
She had to work harder..
