And the fact that someone as proud as Mo Wenhui would agree to pretend to be kidnapped by Butler Li was surely for Mo Yu's sake.
It's a pity that she gave so much love to one child, yet in the end, he never felt sad for her and only thought of himself.
Spoiling children is really a bad thing. Xu's two sons were never pampered by her, and now they are both good young men. Unlike Mo Yu, who is a real ingrate.
On the day of the Xu family's funeral, both Nan Zhi and Shen Xingmian went.
When the matriarch of the Xu family had an accident, the funeral was held on an extremely grand scale.
When I went to Nanzhi, everything was black.
Many people came to pay their respects to Madam Xu.
Xu Chaoci stood at the entrance of the mourning hall to greet people. When he saw Nan Zhi and Shen Xingmian arrive, a pale smile still appeared on his lips:
"You're here? Let's go inside."
Nanzhi glanced at him, and as she passed by, she said:
"Cousin, please accept my condolences."
Xu Chaoci paused for a moment, then nodded. "Thank you."
No matter what, his mother was the one who gave him life and raised him, so it's impossible for him not to feel anything for her.
Xu Qingzhou felt the same way. Right now, he wished his mother would get up and scold him.
Nan Zhi and Shen Xingmian paid their respects to the deceased, released flowers, and then walked towards Xu Qingzhou.
Xu Qingzhou was still young and didn't know how to hide his sadness. His eyes were red, clearly showing that he had been crying hard.
Seeing Nanzhi, he didn't smile, but simply said to her:
"Nanzhi, thank you for coming."
After learning what her mother and the others had done, Xu Qingzhou felt that Nan Zhi's willingness to come was an act of great magnanimity.
Nanzhi patted his shoulder and said, "Don't be too sad."
Hearing this, Xu Qingzhou felt comforted, and tears welled up in his eyes again. He nodded.
Xu Qingzhou was standing next to Xu Mo, who asked a question:
"Zhizhi, you've really been wronged this time."
Xu Mo had dark circles under his eyes, and looked much older after just a few days.
Nanzhi thought he should feel guilty, since Butler Li committed the crime because he was kicked out of the Xu family, and it was Xu Mo who did it.
Nan Zhi still remembers that day. Xu Mo did not doubt her in the slightest because of what others said or because she was at the scene of the incident.
"I'm not upset. You uncles should take care of yourselves."
Nanzhi decided to acknowledge this uncle.
Xu Mo stared wide-eyed at Nan Zhi, his eyes filled with excitement and disbelief.
He spoke in a trembling voice, with a hint of tears in his eyes. The child was not angry about what his wife and Mo Yu and the others had done, and was even willing to acknowledge him.
This warmed Xu Mo's heart immensely. After learning the truth, he even thought that perhaps Nan Zhi could never forgive the Xu family again, let alone acknowledge them.
But now, contrary to his expectations, Nan Zhi not only showed no hatred, but also called him "uncle" without holding a grudge.
How could Xu Mo not be excited?
"Zhizhi, don't you hate me?"
He couldn't help but ask a question that left Nanzhi completely bewildered:
Why should I hate you?
Xu Mo felt ashamed, "If I hadn't failed to manage the household properly, they wouldn't have treated you like this and even tried to frame you."
Nan Zhi couldn't help but smile, her eyes softening as she looked at Xu Mo. "Uncle, I won't blame others without knowing the facts. They've already paid the price for what they did. Besides, you are you, and she is him; we can't generalize."
Both Butler Li and Mo Yu were in prison, and Mo Wenhui was dead, so there was nothing left to argue about.
Nan Zhi clearly and logically expressed her thoughts, which moved Xu Mo and Xu Qingzhou deeply.
Xu Mo thought to himself: Nan Zhi has been educated very well.
Only after the funeral was over and Mo Wenhui was buried did Nanzhi and Shen Xingmian return home.
Life returned to normal, and Nanzhi continued her studies with Master Qianmu.
After that incident, Nanzhi had no way to ask Shen Xingmian what his true identity was.
But Shen Xingmian still found an opportunity to tell her.
"Zhizhi, you don't need to feel restricted here. No matter what happens, I'll be here for you."
In the afternoon, the two were sunbathing on the balcony. Nan Zhi lay on Shen Xingmian's lap, squinting her eyes, looking very comfortable.
Upon hearing Shen Xingmian's words, she frowned. The sunlight was quite strong, making it difficult for Nanzhi to open her eyes.
The man probably noticed, so he leaned forward slightly to block the light.
His pupils reflected his own image; his expression was serious, his lips slightly pursed, as if he were making a vow to himself, or perhaps speaking to himself.
After a long silence, Nan Zhi remained silent, but Shen Xingmian spoke again:
“I started my business here when I was in college. I recruited Song Yiming and Ji Fan later. The business here is too big, and they are the ones who manage it. In addition, Hu Lai’s mother, who is my aunt, is also working for me.”
Nanzhi raised an eyebrow: "So, you're doing something big here?"
Shen Xingmian chuckled softly:
"It's not bad. You don't need to suffer in the future. Do whatever you want. I'll take care of you."
This is probably the most touching love confession ever: I'm here for you.
Just like what happened last time, Nam Gyi was clearly not the murderer, but she was still suspected and detained.
Shen Xingmian didn't want to see Nanzhi like that again, forced into a corner, helpless, lacking the determination and courage to fight back.
That was the Nanzhi he never wanted to see again in his life.
What's the name of your company?
Nan Zhi was a little curious. Shen Xingmian was very capable, so he should have accomplished a great deal.
The other person remained silent for a long time, seemingly lost in thought, before finally parting their thin lips slightly:
"Xi Yue".
Nanzhi looked puzzled. "Huh?"
Shen Xingmian: "The Glorious Age of Dawn and Moon"
Nanzhi silently repeated the name several times in her heart before smiling and speaking:
"The Flourishing Era of Xiyue? How could it be a name like that? It doesn't sound like something you would come up with."
A complex emotion flashed in Shen Xingmian's eyes, then she spoke in a low voice:
“I named it Xiyue, meaning dawn and moon. I hope that Xiyue will always prosper, and that we will always be safe, joyful, and free from illness and disaster.”
The next sentence was so low that Nanzhi didn't hear it at all, but she didn't care.
Thinking about it, the characters "曦月" (Xi Yue) do indeed mean dawn and moonlight, which exist regardless of day or night.
"Shen Xingmian, you've got a good idea, but I've never heard of this company before."
Nan Zhi reached out and took Shen Xingmian's hand, tracing the lines on his hand as she spoke indifferently.
Shen Xingmian smiled faintly:
"Perhaps you didn't notice."
Xiyue Shengshi is a mysterious entity in the United States. Most ordinary people are unaware of its existence. Even those who are not ordinary only know that there is a mysterious company that supplies the economy of the United States, but they do not know who is behind it.
Only a select few national leaders are aware of the importance of the Xiyue Prosperity.
