It’s uncomfortable, very uncomfortable.
It is so painful to see a young life disappear in front of you. It is so painful to feel that you could have saved it but in the end, the tragedy happened.
As things have developed to this point, it is no longer clear who can truly save Yan Yi?
But the most critical point of the contradiction points directly to Han Chi.
This third brother, who left a very good impression on people, really overturned Zhou Mo's perception of him.
Perhaps... underestimating him is the most correct statement.
If he wasn't ruthless, how did he get this far on his own, and how could he achieve such success at this age?
There is no completely rational and objective person in this world. Prejudice is a habit for everyone.
People are multifaceted. Han Chi is a good brother in life, but that doesn’t mean he can be a qualified partner.
"You guys go back," Han Chi said, "I'll find a hotel nearby later."
Han Chen asked worriedly, "Can you do it alone? You didn't even bring your luggage when you came."
Han Chi hesitated for a moment, as if it really wasn't possible.
Han Chen said, "Zhou Mo and I will go buy you some daily necessities."
"Yeah," Han Chi turned around and saw the hotel logo standing out against the night sky. He pointed and said, "I'm going to stay there."
Han Chen: "Okay, Zhou Mo and I will go there quickly and come back soon."
Han Chi said tiredly, "Thank you for your hard work."
Han Chen wanted to ask what he planned to do next, but thinking that Han Chi was probably very tired and probably had no idea, asking would only add to his troubles, so he said nothing.
"See you later," Han Chen said.
"Yeah." Han Chi responded.
Han Chen held Zhou Mo's hand and walked along the road. There was a supermarket not far from here, and he planned to go there.
The two of them walked with their heads down, and no one noticed. Han Chi, who was standing there, watched their backs as they left together in the cold wind.
Perhaps, this is what it means to truly move forward side by side.
It's a pity that he only realized now how important it is to have someone by his side to share the good and bad times with him, but it's too late.
Once upon a time, Han Chi always felt that he had extraordinary personal abilities and could do everything by himself. He was strong enough and did not need to rely on anyone.
But at this moment, his heart was as cold as water. Sadness and self-blame kept tormenting him. It was the first time that he fell into such negative emotions and couldn't get out of it.
Not only that, if Yan Yi lost his life... he didn't dare to predict what would happen next.
This incident is very likely to cause him to fall into low status, which will be a fatal blow to his future work.
Maybe... he might never be able to survive in the Shanghai stock market again.
The fact that he couldn't become Yan Jianshe's son-in-law was enough to make the powerful Yan Jianshe give up. What if he also forced Yan Yi to death?
If Yan Jianshe was determined to seek revenge, he might even be sent to jail.
Over the years, he and Yan Jianshe have exchanged many interests, and he has lost count of how many of them are legal and how many are not.
He has tried his best to remain legal without complying with regulations...but if someone wants to kill him, there will always be a chance to find something to hold against him.
The bad thing about living in Shanghai is that if something happens, your family can hardly help you.
The Han family's power is concentrated in the imperial capital, so they can handle any problems, but if they move to another place... that may not be the case.
The Han family can only be icing on the cake for Yan Jianshe. If he can become his son-in-law, it can barely be considered as timely help. Yan Jianshe has been rooted in Shanghai for many years, and what he needs is someone who can inherit his mantle.
Among the many qualified people, he was the best, so Yan Jianshe chose him.
Things have developed to this point, and Han Chi can only take a gamble.
It depends on Yan Jianshe whether his daughter's life is more important or finding an excellent heir.
Han Chi's intuition told him that it must be the latter.
But if there was no Yan Yi?, how could he and Yan Jianshe form a stable relationship? Without Yan Yi? as a bond, they were not related at all, so why would Yan Jianshe choose him? He could definitely find someone more obedient.
Headache.
Han Chi felt like his head was about to explode.
I am really alone now.
I didn’t think being alone was scary before, but now that I’m at my most desperate, I realize that if there’s someone around who can care about me, even just a simple greeting or a simple hug, it can bring some comfort to my heart.
Now he finally understood why Yan Yi would rather give up everything and want to get close to Qi Tan.
Qi Tan cannot give her the future she wants, but he can give her spiritual comfort.
***
On the way to the supermarket.
Zhou Mo put his hands in his pockets and walked with his head down. "After we finish shopping, why don't you stay and keep your third brother company?"
Han Chen: "He won't let me accompany him."
Zhou Mo: "Why?"
Han Chen: "He is a very strong-willed person. I have never seen him show weakness to anyone."
Zhou Mo: "You are brothers, so it's not possible?"
In Zhou Mo's understanding, brothers and sisters are meant to confide in each other and keep each other warm. She, Liu Xia and Liu Hun have always been like this.
Han Chen said firmly, "He won't. He probably doesn't want to show weakness in front of another man, even if I'm his brother."
Zhou Mo: "If you can't accompany him, then he will have to face all this alone."
Han Chen: "Yeah."
Zhou Mo looked at Han Chen curiously: "Aren't you afraid that he can't bear it? Yan Yi's incident is a double blow to his psychology and career."
Han Chen: "I don't know. I only know... I am powerless and cannot help him."
Zhou Mo: "Where is your family?"
Han Chen: "I can't help, or rather, I can't help much. Yan Jianshe is in Shanghai, not in the imperial capital. Shanghai is a major taxpayer every year. He has enough money and confidence, so it's difficult to deal with him."
Zhou Mo nodded, not quite understanding.
Han Chen: "To put it bluntly, this matter can only be left to fate."
Zhou Mo: "Your third brother...shouldn't regret it?"
Han Chen: "Are you talking about Yan Yi?"
Zhou Mo: "Yeah."
Han Chen: "He said it in front of Qi Tan, how could he go back on his word? Now we can only pray that Yan Yi is safe, otherwise the murder case will trigger a murder investigation mechanism. Even if my third brother is not the direct murderer of Yan Yi, there will be an investigation. The investigation will take time. Yan Yi and my third brother are both in Shanghai. If this case is transferred to Shanghai... Yan Jianshe will have a better chance to control my third brother."
Zhou Mo: "Even if there is no criminal responsibility, it will still have a great impact on your third brother's future."
Han Chen: "That's for sure."
Zhou Mo lowered his eyes, "Actually... I also blame myself."
Han Chen: "What are you blaming yourself for?"
Zhou Mo: "If I had nothing better to do than speculate about the relationship between Yan Yi and Qi Tan... If I had not agreed to leave the room when your third brother asked us to, but stayed there instead... wouldn't Yan Yi have gotten into trouble."
