“Second Master, the eminent monks of Dawuxiang Temple have long since withdrawn from worldly affairs; they have more important plans to pursue.” Shui Xin said, “Ru Hai is a latecomer to the monastic life; he is not of the same lineage as the eminent monks of Dawuxiang Temple.”
"So you're worried they won't come out of seclusion to deal with Ye Xingchen for Ru Hai's sake?" Liang Chenghu chuckled, stroking Shui Xin's chin.
"Yes, yes." Shui Xin nodded slowly: "Would they really abandon their important plans for Ye Xingchen?"
"Heh, then let's force them to show themselves. Some of the things I've done over the years have also been for their Great Wuxiang Temple." Liang Chenghu said leisurely, "They are high-ranking Buddhist monks. If these dirty deeds are exposed, what do you think they will do?"
"I understand, it has to be Second Master again." Shui Xin blinked. "But who will they send to deal with Ye Xingchen next?"
"It doesn't matter who they send out, what matters is that Ru Hai is dead. They can't just sit idly by. If they really intend to sit idly by, then I'll cut off their support." Liang Chenghu sneered, "Without me, who will do those shady things for them?"
"Second Master is a step ahead." Shui Xin looked at him with admiration: "Among all the men in this world, perhaps only Second Master can be considered a real man."
"Little vixen, I really like you so much, you're so good with words." Liang Chenghu chuckled, then put his arm around Shui Xin. He said coldly, "Send a message back to Dawuxiang Temple immediately. I want to see how these monks plan to deal with this matter."
Chen's Group, President's Office.
Chen Qian has officially taken over the Chen Group. Without the interference of the Yu family, all of the company's businesses are slowly unfolding.
Today she sat blankly in the office, lost in thought.
Her father's words still echoed in her ears. The clever girl understood that her father had taken a liking to Ye Xingchen and wanted to take him as his son-in-law.
It wasn't that Chen Qian had no feelings for Ye Xingchen, but rather that all the things that had happened before made her simply not think about it in that way.
Now that the Chen Group's situation is largely settled, coupled with her father's hints, her feelings for Ye Xingchen surged up instantly, to the point where she couldn't extricate herself.
He recalled their first meeting at Sanka's place, and how Sanka had returned from abroad and single-handedly stormed into the enemy's encirclement to rescue him.
He healed his face, sent himself back to his country, then went to Nanjing to cure his father's illness and lay the foundation for the Chen family's future.
All the past events flashed before her eyes, making her feel overwhelmed with emotion.
"Ye Xingchen, what are you really thinking?" After a long while, she sighed.
Her father told her to take the initiative, but to be honest, she didn't dare to take that step, fearing that the result wouldn't be what she wanted.
But my father said that you must fight for the things you like in this world, otherwise they will be taken away by others.
Thinking of this, she gritted her teeth and dialed Ye Xingchen's number. Her voice became unusually gentle: "Brother Ye, are you busy? I'm at the company right now. Is it convenient for you to come over? Yes, I have some things I want to discuss with you."
After hanging up the phone, she clutched her chest; her heart was pounding.
But then she quickly stood up; Ye Xingchen was about to arrive, and she needed to change her clothes.
Hmm, what kind of women do men like? This business suit seems a bit too formal. Hmm, how about going for a mature, sophisticated look?
Ye Xingchen arrived at the office as promised. When he saw Chen Qian, he was taken aback. Today, Chen Qian's clothes and appearance seemed rather mature.
Her well-fitting business suit perfectly showcased her slender figure.
Her hair was pulled up high, she wore rimless glasses, and her legs were covered by black stockings under her bodycon skirt. Every move she made exuded charm.
Chen Qian is very beautiful, there is no doubt about that. Although her mother has been gone for a long time, she came from a scholarly family. During the more than ten years that her mother was alive, she passed on all her good character to Chen Qian.
This was the first time Ye Xingchen had ever seen such a mature yet youthful style of dress.
"Brother Ye, you've arrived." Chen Qian quickly stood up to welcome Ye Xingchen in, then asked him to sit down and personally poured him a glass of water.
She seemed a little uneasy in front of Ye Xingchen, after all, it was the first time she had taken the initiative to ask a man out, and she didn't know how to start the conversation.
"Did you call me here for something?" Ye Xingchen asked, somewhat surprised, as he swept the water away.
Chen Qian's expression today puzzled him, and Ye Xingchen was somewhat confused.
"Ah, Brother Chen, it's like this. The company's previously suspended business has resumed, and the Yu faction has been purged." Chen Qian said with a smile, "I've been busy before, so I haven't had time to thank you. Today I'd like to treat you to dinner as a way of thanking you for your help these past few days."
"Is that so? No need to be so polite." Ye Xingchen said with a smile, "I talked to your father a few days ago. I may continue to cooperate with your Chen family in the future. These things are just a small favor, don't worry about them."
"Brother Chen, it was just a small favor for you, but for me, you brought the Chen Group back from the brink of collapse," Chen Qian said quietly. "Without your help, the Chen Group wouldn't have been able to get back on track, and even my father would probably be..."
As Chen Qian spoke, her eyes reddened slightly. She recalled the dangers that had occurred before, and although the incidents were in the past, she still found it difficult to let go of them whenever she thought about them.
"It's alright, it's all over now," Ye Xingchen quickly reassured her.
"Thanks to your help, my mother passed away early, and my father has really had a hard time all these years." Chen Qian's eyes reddened even more as she thought of her deceased mother.
"It's okay, don't be sad. You've already called me 'Big Brother,' so I'll take care of people in the future. If you need anything, just come to me." Ye Xingchen tore off a tissue and handed it to her.
Chen Qian nodded, and as she took the tissue, she suddenly grabbed Ye Xingchen's hand: "Brother Ye, there are some things I want to tell you."
"You mean..." Ye Xingchen was startled. What was Chen Qian doing? So proactive? She wasn't the kind of person who was proactive and outgoing, this...
"Brother Chen, I...I..." Chen Qian's face was flushed. She wanted to tell Ye Xingchen directly that she liked him, but she was too shy to speak because she had almost never had contact with men before.
"Just say what you need to say, it's okay," Ye Xingchen said awkwardly.
Chen Qian nodded, and just as she mustered her courage to confess her feelings, the door suddenly opened, and Chen Wenhao barged in: "Sister, are you there? I..."
