Chapter 139 He failed to appease anyone.



Qi Yi had never been so wronged in his life. Not only was he being used as a supporting character, but he also had to be an expert at reading people's expressions.

But no one told him that people in their line of work have to think about even these things.

I felt very helpless, but there was nothing I could do.

He pushed all the dishes that this group of people liked in front of them and said again, "Come and eat, then enjoy your meal."

"Let's put other things aside for now. We have plenty of time. Why rush things?"

He really didn't know how to comfort people, especially since he was unsure what He Danqing's current views were on these matters.

But none of those things seem to be particularly important to love.

After all, there are still so many people helping him out.

It's not really about leaving him to deal with everything alone. Even if he's not used to these things, he has to learn to adapt.

You can't open up to people about anything else anymore. At times like this, you have to be able to think about the crux of the problem.

Their hearts have long since changed.

Greed is human nature. Perhaps when the He family was at its peak, they didn't have such thoughts.

Later, Mr. He insisted on not reforming the company and did not want to make sweeping changes.

They felt this wouldn't work, so they thought about starting their own business. When they realized that they couldn't get through the He family, they came up with some crooked ideas.

The best solution would be to eliminate the He family altogether, which would then achieve their goal.

For this reason, they are willing to cooperate with outsiders to bring the He family to their doom.

Mr. He is old, so it's much easier for him to deal with him.

With just a little manipulation, he can be angered, leading to health problems.

They've seen far too many things like this before.

So we thought of this aspect when we first started planning.

This is exactly the effect they wanted.

If Mr. He falls, there will be no one left in the He family who can hold the family together.

They really didn't take He Danqing seriously from the very beginning.

I always felt that no matter how talented He Danqing was in art, so what?

How much could an artsy student like him possibly understand about the ways of the business world?

They were certain he was no good, so they didn't think he was anyone who could be of much use.

Qi Yi understood all of this perfectly well. He just felt that people nowadays couldn't be said to think things through without using their brains.

I've at least thought about it, but not thoroughly enough.

They hadn't planned for all the unexpected events that might occur, so no matter how well they prepared, they still fell short by a single misstep.

Right now, they wouldn't dare say they're fully prepared.

But at least we now understand their plans and can roughly determine what they intend to do next.

However, these words cannot be said directly to He Danqing, as he might not be able to accept them.

Tang Jinyu started eating first, she was so hungry that she didn't have time to care what Qi Yi had come up with.

None of that was important to her.

Just as Qi Yi said, it's best to put other things aside for now.

It's impossible for them to reveal their hand right now.

Moreover, they are currently in the crucial stage before the trial, so they have to be careful when they go out to eat.

Who knows if the enemy might suddenly have a change of heart and send someone to follow them again.

It would be bad if they heard what they said and it aroused their suspicion.

Tang Jinyu is now wary of everyone, preferring to think more for herself rather than reveal any flaws to others.

She preferred to believe that the other party was very strong rather than that it was because of her.

She would never have done something like this before, and she certainly wouldn't now.

She has many things she dislikes, and many things she likes.

But there has never been a moment as peaceful as this.

I just wanted to have a simple meal.

We should fill our stomachs first.

There's always time to talk things over; there's really no rush.

Tang Jinyu pulled Qi Yi over hoping that He Danqing would relax a little while he was there.

Don't always have such a serious face; he's actually quite handsome when he smiles.

When he has emotions, he chooses to process them on his own.

Everyone says that the future of the He family depends entirely on how this lawsuit is ultimately decided, but we can't put all the pressure on He Danqing, a young man.

He really is quite extraordinary.

It's only because the Ho family are such easygoing parents that they were able to raise such a good child.

Even when faced with difficulties from others, he did not show any vindictiveness.

If it weren't for these people going too far...

Tang Jinyu once thought that there was still room for negotiation between them.

Who is He Danqing? He's a young painter with a lot of ideas in his head.

They are so good that you would keep your distance from them if you picked them out randomly.

Art originates from life; to gain creative inspiration, one must engage with life more.

If you've seen He Danqing's paintings, you'll find that he's a very sensitive person.

Behind the seemingly unconventional behavior lies a multitude of hidden schemes.

A person's painting can express their emotions.

Before He Danqing returned to China, all of his paintings carried a sense of longing for life.

Overflowing with enthusiasm.

But now, he can't even put pen to paper.

I can't draw a complete picture, and I don't know what else I can do.

That feeling of confusion and helplessness was something he had never experienced before.

So I couldn't help but think about it.

Was it really the right thing for me to choose to study art and give up my family business that year?

If he had studied management, perhaps so many things wouldn't have happened to the Ho family.

Mr. He will not be able to lie in the hospital bed; he can only rely on quiet rest to slowly recover.

When He Danqing first returned, she hated herself.

It's frustrating to see someone fail to live up to their potential, but it's no use.

When we talk about the past now, all we feel is regret and remorse; we can't muster any other emotions.

Tang Jinyu was eating happily on the side, looking completely carefree.

Qi Yi couldn't understand it. When he called him out for dinner, he looked like the sky was about to fall.

How could she have forgotten why she came here in such a short time after seeing the food?

If someone tells her to focus on eating, she will actually start eating seriously.

“I said.”

Qi Yi managed to open his mouth, but before he could speak, he met Tang Jinyu's gaze.

With food still in its mouth, its cheeks were bulging, like a little squirrel.

She looked at Qi Yi with a puzzled expression, signaling him with her eyes what was wrong.

Qi Yi suddenly couldn't say anything, feeling that saying even one more word would spoil her enjoyment of the meal.

On the contrary, He Danqing did not touch his chopsticks.

Qi Yi resignedly picked up some food for him and put it in his bowl.

She kept talking, urging, "Eat something, don't think about it."

"Thinking so much is useless."

"You know the current situation. No matter how much you think about it, it can't keep up with the pace of change."

What Qi Yi said was true.

He's handled many cases and is used to this kind of reversal.

However, he hadn't yet decided how to approach He Danqing.

He possesses unimaginable perseverance, tenacity, and an indomitable spirit.

That's how he was when he was creating art; he would travel thousands of miles to find a particular view.

He felt that only by seeing it with his own eyes could he know exactly how to draw it.

He never does anything futile. There are some things that, without experiencing them firsthand, you can never capture their essence in a painting.

It's the same as it is now.

He Danqing hasn't experienced those things yet, so why should you expect him to make a decision so quickly?

If you yourself think something is impossible, you should be able to put yourself in others' shoes and not expect it of them.

They're past that impulsive age; they know what's important and they're sure they know what to do next.

Tang Jinyu ate for a while and then noticed that the two of them were just standing there in a daze, neither of them moving.

So she put down her chopsticks and looked around.

"Not to your liking? I think it's alright."

Qi Yi's restaurant recommendation is definitely reliable; he's eaten at countless restaurants around the law firm.

Tang Jinyu had a good grasp of the preferences, especially when it came to finding a spot, she gave them some special instructions.

Tell him to consider He Danqing's tastes.

Today's main event should be his, not someone I see at the law firm every day.

Eating was just to comfort him; filling his stomach was secondary.

Even if you're full, it doesn't necessarily mean you'll have other ideas.

They're just trying anything, no matter what, and they're not afraid of making a mistake.

Even if you make mistakes, can you really end up achieving nothing?

With what they currently possess, they could hold out for a while in a protracted war.

We won't be forced into a corner.

Especially after they've gone through all the scheming, they'll feel that this group is determined to make them pay the price.

But they didn't say what the price would be.

It remains to be seen who will pay this price.

Upon hearing Tang Jinyu's voice, He Danqing finally reacted. He raised his head and glanced at the dishes.

Hesitantly picked up his chopsticks, without even looking at what was in front of him, and put it directly into his mouth.

It has no taste.

But he still has people who care about him, so he doesn't care what happens to him.

I don't want these people to worry about him.

Seeing that he had finally stopped standing there like a block of wood, Qi Yi sighed, "Isn't that right?"

"If you had said this earlier, why would I have advised you?"

"Really."

Not only did it waste his feelings, it also delayed his mealtime.

What was supposed to be a nice meal has been completely ruined, and I don't know what to do.

Qi Yi was already a seasoned veteran; there was nothing he couldn't handle.

However, in front of these two people, he truly felt somewhat helpless.

His ideas were dispensable to both of them.

One or two of them are causing me no peace of mind.

Qi Yi thought about it and then lowered his head to continue eating his meal.

My appetite instantly halved.

I was tormented by these two people.

At first, he actually thought the two of them were a perfect match.

They harbored the intention of bringing them together.

Now, maybe we should just forget about it.

He can't even handle this one; if another one comes along, who knows how much more trouble it will cause.

He can't handle this kind of stimulation right now; it would be better for him to step back.

Others always consider the big picture when thinking about things, but he can't even think about one person right now.

The meal took quite a while, and during it, the group of people were all thinking different things. Although none of them said it out loud, the general meaning was still quite clear.

Indeed, there's no need to think too much.

It's true that everything should be done step by step, but the fear is that when they don't have much time left, they will become even more anxious.

Right now, so many people are watching them.

We're just waiting for them to make mistakes, waiting for them to fall into a situation that no one can save.

I want to destroy them all at once.

This kind of thing, once it happens, will happen again.

Never-ending.

Qi Yi was actually able to understand why this group of people were doing this.

No one dislikes reaping the benefits of others' labor, whether then or now.

The result is the same.

When Tang Jinyu first came to the law firm, she was a fearless person.

It seems there's nothing she's afraid of.

When she gets into arguments with people outside about the right and wrong of a case, she can infuriate even seniors who have been in the industry for several years.

Don't ask, because you'll always find a reason to justify yourself.

There's not a single flaw in it.

She's right. Even if others try to distort the truth, they can't take away her logic.

This is Tang Jinyu.

She put all her knowledge to good use.

Not a single thing was wasted, which is why, out of so many people, Qi Yi chose her alone.

She does have some attractive qualities.

Undeniably, out of so many people in the law program, only Tang Jinyu attracted her attention.

No, to be precise, it should be mutual attraction.

He had a flamboyant and unrestrained side, which Tang Jinyu noticed.

And coincidentally, Tang Jinyu's excellence would make him unable to resist applauding and praising her.

That's how it is.

Later, at a law firm, he discovered that Tang Jinyu had a free-spirited personality.

What you want to do one second, you may forget the next.

It's said that a fish's memory only lasts seven seconds, but she probably doesn't even have seven seconds.

The past is gone in the blink of an eye.

They don't want to talk about things that are over, and they still do now.

However, there are too many factors involved, making it difficult to imagine what these people are really planning.

Things will always happen that are beyond our comprehension; if we pay attention to everything, we'll never have enough time.

The walk to the law firm was completely silent.

Qi Yi felt that this meal was extremely unpleasant for him.

He failed to appease any of them.

He didn't eat very well.

They're on their way back now, and it's clear these two people have no intention of paying him any attention.

What, is he some kind of monster?

He didn't cause this, so there's no need to take it out on him.
