No family member can compare to a woman.

Before he could even pursue Chu Xiangyun, Lei Xuan threw him into a place where there was no sunlight. But what did it matter?

She calmly kept the phone on, but didn't say a word.

"Yaoyao, please save your brother! I can't take it anymore!" A cry that sounded like blood and tears rang in Shen Wangshu's ears. Sheng Lun's voice had lost all its elegance and leisure. It had only been a day, but he seemed unable to go on.

But he couldn't even endure such hardship. How did his parents, who were once wealthy, survive when they were penniless and had to pay off debts? Now, Sheng Lun was also just paying off debts. A faint smile appeared on Shen Wangshu's lips as he casually hung up the phone.

Her coldness seemed to shock Sheng Lun on the other side.

He never expected that his kind-hearted and gentle sister would so coldly and ruthlessly hang up on him.

He finally managed to hide in a secluded corner and use the stolen phone to make a call, hoping his family would save him. But his father hung up as soon as he heard his voice, and he couldn't get through again after that. Now, his sister has also become extremely heartless.

He didn't know when he would be able to pay off his debt, which amounted to hundreds of thousands of yuan. What did that mean to Young Master Sheng before? But now it was almost enough to drive him to his death. He had been doing the hardest work all day. The heavy boxes were pressing down on him, and he almost collapsed after taking just one step.

He has to complete a huge amount of work every day; if he doesn't finish, he won't get paid and won't be able to pay off his debts.

Yesterday he stayed in a dark, smelly tent and ate the worst food imaginable.

With nowhere to turn for help, it felt as if he had encountered the greatest malice in the world.

Sheng Lun's handsome face was covered with minor scratches, and he was terrified, cowering on the ground, not knowing what to do.

After hanging up the phone, Shen Wangshu no longer cared about Sheng Lun's life or death, and played with her phone thoughtfully.

A short while later, Lei Xuan's phone rang. After listening for a moment, he put down the phone and said coldly to Shen Wangshu, "Sheng Lun has run away." Seeing Shen Wangshu nod slightly, he continued, "He has already been caught and taken back."

His men weren't a bunch of useless fools; since they discovered Sheng Lun had escaped, they would naturally catch him quickly and continue dealing with him. Lei Xuan had also heard Shen Wangshu's phone call earlier, but he didn't care at all about her inaction. He walked to her side, handed her a document, and said with his eyes downcast, "The Gao family acts very quickly."

In just one day, Gao Sen personally led his team to negotiate with various parties, striving for the rights to this piece of land in the city center.

He practically worked himself to the bone, securing deals with many people in a short period of time, achieving remarkable results.

However, Lei's actions were equally swift. Before Gao Sen could finalize everything, a huge investment had already been deposited into his account, giving Gao Sen a tremendous boost in his negotiations.

Shen Wangshu was very satisfied.

However, when I heard that Gao Sen had been negotiating with five different companies at five different hotels in one night, I felt that Mr. Gao was quite dedicated.

However, such hard work might make the maid waiting quietly in her own villa feel resentful.

He slept for only one day, then pulled up his pants and wasn't even going home.

This kind of resentment is something a nanny who hasn't experienced it would never understand.

Chu Xiangyun stayed alone in the villa for a few more days, feeling as if the sky had fallen before her eyes.

She and Gao Sen had just started dating, and they should have been living a blissful life together, or as they put it nicely, newlyweds. But in the blink of an eye, Gao Sen stopped coming home as often.

She understood that Gao Sen was the head of the Gao Group, countless people depended on his decisions for their livelihood, and many business deals wouldn't have been possible without his intervention. She even felt a hidden pride in how needed her lover was, a man brimming with charm and ability. But who could truly understand the heart of a young woman like her?

She only hoped that Gao Sen's eyes would be on her, that he would treat her well, and that he wouldn't care about work, the group's development, the second young lady of the Sheng family, or the young master of the Gao family. Just the two of them would be so much happier.

Looking at the box of magnificent and dazzling jewelry in front of her, Chu Xiangyun's eyes immediately turned red.

What she didn't understand even more was Gao Sen's heart.

Even though they were intimate, even though they had done the most intimate things, there seemed to be a place in Gao Sen's heart that she could never touch.

That was Gao Xi's mother, the deceased eldest daughter of the Sheng family, Sheng Jia.

That beautiful and refined woman, though she was already dead, was still unforgettable to Gao Sen. Even though he hadn't mentioned his deceased wife for a long time, Chu Xiangyun still understood that Gao Sen missed Sheng Jia deep down.

He simply loved her and wanted to treat her better, to keep her from worrying, which was why he never mentioned it to Sheng Jia, pampering and loving her, and giving her the happiness that every woman in the world longed for. As Chu Xiangyun pondered this, her slender fingers traced the beautiful and expensive jewelry before her, her brows furrowing.

When she first met this tormented and heartbroken man, she was deeply captivated by his melancholic and mature aura.

For the sake of her love, she was even willing to come to the Gao family as a nanny, just so she could stay by Gao Sen's side, take care of him in every way, and try her best to make him forget the people from the past and only look at her, so that he would know that it didn't matter if a woman died, he still wanted her to love him deeply.

There's a saying: "Looking at the vast landscape, one can only yearn for distant places; it's better to cherish the person right in front of you."

She is the person right in front of me.
