The next day, Jiang Zhengyu returned to Kyoto and called Xu Yanshu. The two eventually met at the law firm.
"There's something I might need to tell you, Shengyi might..."
“I know,” Xu Yanshu nodded firmly, then explained calmly, “I’ve decided to start my business in Chengdu!”
It's not hard to guess that Sheng Yi's desire to develop his career in Chengdu stems from his inability to return to Kyoto.
Since she can't come, I'll go to Chengdu myself!
Is this... a sign that you've figured it out?
Jiang Zhengyu was stunned for a moment, then reached out and patted Xu Yanshu on the shoulder. "That's right! I knew I hadn't misjudged you!"
Actually, he had talked to his uncle in private. His uncle was thinking about finding someone worthy of Sheng Yi's lifelong commitment as soon as possible because of what happened when Sheng Yi was in junior high school.
All the blind dates arranged for Shengyi were not only outstanding, but also locals from Chengdu. Ultimately, the uncle wanted to keep his daughter under his watchful eye.
His willingness to let Sheng Yi choose between the two options is already a concession.
Xu Yanshu hesitated, but ultimately said nothing more, his eyes filled with thought.
He hasn't thought that far ahead yet; he just wants to get as close to victory as possible.
"However, I won't set off immediately; I need to take care of the follow-up matters here first."
Jiang Zhengyu nodded knowingly, "That's why we were forced to let you leave. If you had gone to Rongcheng right away, that old guy Xie Junyang would have been even more restless."
"And if we go to Chengdu, Zhou Zehao will be desperate and do something rash."
Although Yan Shu's decision to develop his career in Chengdu is a good thing, he needs to weigh all aspects carefully given his current situation.
"The tree may wish to be still, but the wind will not cease; he has already decided to kill me," Xu Yanshu shrugged nonchalantly. "No matter how much I keep my distance from Rongcheng, he will not let me go easily!"
So he really should consider going back to the Zhou family...
After careful consideration, Jiang Zhengyu did not actually speak. This matter was different from others, and Yan Shu might have his own considerations and concerns.
"He Wen has basically settled in over there. To ensure a smooth meeting, I've arranged for someone to keep an eye on him secretly!"
What a coincidence?
Xu Yanshu raised his eyebrows in surprise. He was just about to bring up the matter when Xu Yanshu had already arranged everything.
It's not a matter of trust or distrust, but rather the fear that He Wen might be blinded by hatred again and do something impulsive.
Jiang Zhengyu glanced at his watch, then waved his hand dismissively, "Alright, my client is almost here, you can leave for now!"
"Alright, in that case, I won't take up any more of Attorney Jiang's precious time!"
No sooner had Xu Yanshu left the law firm than she received a call from the cemetery manager, saying that someone had come to pay respects to her grandmother and father.
Who would go to the cemetery when it's neither a holiday nor a festival?
Xu Yanshu was puzzled, so he immediately drove over. When he arrived, he found out that it was Xie Huanyu.
"Grandma, Uncle Xu, I'm so sorry. I only realized now that I had done so many wrong things."
Xie Huanyu choked up a little as she spoke, but after composing herself, she continued, "But don't worry, I will never do anything to hurt Yan Shu again, and I will try my best to make it up to him in my own way!"
His biological father didn't treat him like a human being, and only after looking back did he realize that only the Xu family members were truly good to him.
Uncle Xu risked his life to save her in the car accident, but she was forced by her father to involve Xu Yanshu, repeatedly ignoring his situation and feelings.
Whenever Xie Huanyu thought of the great care her grandmother had given her, she felt a pang of sadness. If she hadn't been blinded by greed, Lu Huai might never have had the chance to harm her grandmother.
But there are no "what ifs" in this world.
Xie Huanyu gently closed her eyes, tears silently streaming down her face. Everything has a cause and effect; perhaps her current predicament was retribution for her past actions.
Xu Yanshu waited for a moment until the woman's emotions had calmed down slightly before he stepped forward and spoke in a deep voice.
"There's no need for reconciliation. We're completely even from the day we got divorced!"
Although he never thought of turning back, he was also well aware that many things could not be entirely blamed on Xie Huanyu, and Xie Junyang's scheming and interests had nothing to do with her.
The two of them are simply incompatible; there's no real right or wrong, so there's no need for them to make amends or apologize.
Unexpectedly seeing Xu Yanshu here, Xie Huanyu was slightly taken aback. After regaining her senses, she subconsciously shook her head, "No, I should make it up to you!"
If there's no possibility of making amends, then over time, they'll truly have no connection whatsoever.
"Don't worry, I'll take care of my own things first and I definitely won't cause you any more trouble."
The terrifying experience on the highway that day truly frightened her. Every time she recalled it, she couldn't help but feel a wave of fear. Only then did she gradually realize how terrifying Zhou Zehao was.
If I continue to approach Xu Yanshu rashly, I don't know what that madman might do, so I must plan everything carefully.
It seems he took what I said that day to heart.
Xu Yanshu's gaze deepened imperceptibly. Faced with the woman's pleading eyes, he hesitated for a moment but still did not mention that he was about to leave the capital.
"In short, you just need to know how to handle it!"
