Chapter 725 is not that simple.
Shen Boyan didn't come to the company all afternoon after he left in the morning.
Tao Yang and Sun Miao both called Shen Boyan, but he didn't answer.
Tao Yang sensed something was wrong. "What's wrong with this guy? Did something happen to him?"
“Yes, he never used to not answer the phone.” Sun Miao was also a little worried. “Shen Jilan left too. Did they have a fight?”
Qiao Xing knew that Shen Boyan was not an impulsive person, so she said to the two of them, "He should be home resting, don't worry."
Sun Miao and Tao Yang thought that Shen Boyan was probably in a bad mood because of Shen Jilan, and might have gone to sleep.
In the past, when he was in a bad mood, he would ignore everyone and sleep all day.
Neither of them thought about it further and went about their own business.
Just then, Qiao Xing's phone rang. He looked at it and saw that it was Shen Boyan calling.
Qiao Xing quickly answered the phone, "Where did you go?"
Shen Boyan was silent for a moment on the phone before saying to Qiao Xing, "Rent a place."
Qiao Xing asked in confusion, "Why would you rent a place out of the blue?"
"Don't ask anymore." Shen Boyan seemed unwilling to say more. "I looked around the neighborhood but couldn't find anything suitable, and I don't know the prices, so I wanted you to help me take a look."
He didn't say anything, and Qiao Xing didn't ask any further questions. "Let me check online for you. I know a few landlords who should have some properties available. What are your requirements?"
Shen Boyan said, "No, a cheaper price is fine."
Qiao Xing was speechless; this request was indeed straightforward and simple.
After hanging up the phone, Qiao Xing found the landlords she had met when she was looking at apartments online.
Sure enough, they all had listings. Qiao Xing compared them and chose the one that best suited Shen Boyan.
It's cheap and the environment is okay for one person.
After making the arrangements, Qiao Xing called Shen Boyan and said, "The landlord has already agreed that you can go and see the house anytime. I'll give you his contact information first, so you can go and take a look. If you don't like it, I'll help you look at other places."
"No need, I'll just move over there." Shen Boyan said decisively, seemingly in a bit of a hurry.
Qiao Xing could only say, "Okay, if you're not happy with the place, just let me know and I'll help you find someone."
"Um."
Before Shen Boyan hung up the phone, Qiao Xing hesitated for a moment and tentatively asked him, "Are you... alright?"
"It's okay, it's fine. I just want to move out, it's not a big deal, don't worry."
Qiao Xing then asked, "So, will you still come to the company?"
"Come on, why don't you come?"
Although she knew that Shen Boyan wasn't that kind of person, Qiao Xing was truly relieved to hear him say that.
Qiao Xing said, "That's good. The company needs you for many things. If you don't come, we'll be completely lost."
Shen Boyan was silent for a moment on the phone, then suddenly asked, "What if you really don't come to the company anymore?"
Qiao Xing didn't believe him at all. "Don't joke around. This company is your life's work, and this game is the culmination of all our funds and energy. How can you bear to give it up?"
Shen Boyan chuckled, but it sounded more like self-mockery. He said, somewhat inexplicably, "Who knows?"
Qiao Xing didn't hear clearly, "What did you say?"
"It's nothing. Could you please help me find a place to live? I'll hang up now."
When Sun Miao and Tao Yang got home from get off work, they discovered that Shen Boyan had moved all his luggage away.
The two quickly called Shen Boyan. They had the same thought as Qiao Xing: they were afraid that Shen Boyan would just leave and abandon the company.
This time, Shen Boyan finally answered the phone. As soon as the call connected, Sun Miao couldn't wait to ask, "Boyan, where did you move to? Why didn't you tell us?"
"It was a last-minute decision; I didn't have time to tell you," Shen Boyan said.
Tao Yang asked, "Where are you now? Miao Miao and I will come over to see you."
Shen Boyan did not agree, saying, "No need."
"Why..."
Just as Sun Miao was about to ask, Tao Yang understood that what he meant was that it was inconvenient for him to know where he lived and he didn't want them to know.
He must have something he didn't want them to know, otherwise he wouldn't have moved out without any preparation.
Tao Yang spoke up before Sun Miao could, "It's good that you've found a place. If you need anything, just tell me and Miao Miao, and we'll definitely help you."
Sun Miao nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes, don't be like before, keeping everything to yourself and not telling us."
Shen Boyan was touched as he listened to their conversation.
Actually, renting a house was a very rushed matter. If Shen Jilan hadn't appeared, he wouldn't have thought about moving out.
Shen Jilan's sudden arrival in Chongqing was not as simple as it seemed.
He knew Shen Congyao's temper best; he would never let Shen Jilan go back before achieving his own goal.
Therefore, the only way to get rid of Shen Jilan and Shen Congyao is to move out.
Sun Miao and Tao Yang were relieved only after confirming several times that Shen Boyan would not leave and would come to the company again.
After exchanging a few words with them, Shen Boyan hung up the phone.
Qiao Xing found a pretty good apartment. It was a one-bedroom apartment with a small kitchen and all the necessary amenities. Although it was small and not as spacious as her previous place, it was just right for one person.
Shen Boyan didn't plan to stay here for long. As long as Shen Jilan couldn't find him, he would move back to the capital.
Although the rent for this house isn't expensive, Shen Boyan doesn't want to spend the money; it's too wasteful.
When Qiao Xing returned home in the evening, the housekeeper had just prepared dinner.
Grandpa Qin was waiting for her to come back so they could have dinner together. Qiao Xing washed her hands and sat down at the table with Grandpa Qin.
Qiao Xing noticed that Grandpa Qin seemed to eat very little; there were several dishes that he hadn't even touched.
"Grandpa, what's wrong? Is it because you don't like the food today?"
The nanny happened to come out of the kitchen and, upon hearing this, looked at Grandpa Qin somewhat nervously.
Grandpa Qin waved his hand, "No, I just don't feel like eating. It's normal to lose your appetite when you get old, don't worry."
Qiao Xing was unaware that Grandpa Qin wasn't actually lacking appetite; he was worried about Qin Ce.
Grandpa Qin found out about Qin Ce's car accident that very night.
Han Yan initially intended to keep it a secret from Grandpa Qin, but Grandpa Qin had been having Xing Jiu report on Qin Ce's situation ever since Qin Ce went to the capital.
He doesn't interfere with Qin Ce's business dealings, but the situation in the capital is different. He knows his son's character and is afraid that something might happen between Qin Liang and Qin Ce.
Therefore, Han Yan couldn't hide it from Grandpa Qin at all.
