Chapter 289 (1/2)



Xie Zhiyan alone cannot dispel the suspicion that Shu Ying is a capitalist's daughter. Only with strong enough ability can she break through those prejudices.

Otherwise, there will always be some people who will pretend to be deaf and dumb, only listening to what they want to hear.

This is Shu Ying's chance.

Xie Zhiyan crossed his arms, his brows furrowing even deeper. "Why is your strength getting stronger and stronger? Have you been secretly taking hormones lately? You could kill a cow with one punch."

Ye Zhanying sneered, "That's a real pity. I should have had it embedded in the wall for you."

The mere thought of him spending every day with Shu Ying filled Ye Zhanying with resentment.

What gives him the right?

Xie Zhiyan fell silent.

He understood that she was jealous, blatantly jealous.

But when he met Jiang Yunzhou's gaze, his face suddenly turned cold again.

Jiang Yunzhou naturally noticed him as well. The two men's eyes met, and there was a subtle sense of competition between them.

Jiang Yunzhou didn't actually know Xie Zhiyan. He had only heard the name from his family. This was the first time he had seen him in person. He was indeed good-looking, but he had a fierce and menacing look, and didn't seem like the kind of person who would cherish women.

He thought that Shu Ying's married life must not be comfortable. Their profession mostly involves fighting and killing. Although he could understand, if he didn't have tenderness towards his family, life would be too difficult.

Moreover, Shu Ying is a gentle person, so she will probably have to be even more tolerant in their marriage.

Thinking of this, Jiang Yunzhou felt even more disdain for Xie Zhiyan.

A man who only has a reputation but can't manage his family affairs is nothing but a paper tiger.

No matter how impressive others describe him, at his core, he is a very rough person.

The war can't go on forever, but life must go on.

Jiang Yunzhou was not familiar with Xie Zhiyan, but Xie Zhiyan knew him very well.

Strictly speaking, this was not their first meeting; they had met eight years earlier.

He already knew about his engagement to Shu Ying at that time. He happened to be on a business trip to Shanghai, and for some reason, he wanted to go to the vicinity of the Shu family. When he arrived at Heping Lane, before he even entered the Shu family's gate, he saw Jiang Yunzhou, who was bringing Shu Ying back.

The two walked side by side, Shu Ying carrying a stack of books. They chatted and laughed, appearing completely at ease.

Xie Zhiyan and Shu Ying didn't have many opportunities to meet, you could count them on your fingers. But every time they met, she was usually quiet and reserved beside her parents, either answering politely or eating elegantly. She never smiled so brightly.

From that time on, Xie Zhiyan felt that Jiang Yunzhou was somewhat of an eyesore.

At that time, Shu Ying only felt that he was an unfamiliar stranger. When she suppressed her smile, she was polite and distant. In short, she did not have any desire to make him feel close to her.

But her smile was beautiful, like the sun in the sky, only that smile wasn't directed at him.

He used to think that Shu Ying had no emotions. No matter what others said or did, she would always just be herself. No one could control her emotions except for Jiang Yunzhou.

Xie Zhiyan thought to himself that he would probably never forget that scene.

That was the first time he saw Shu Ying's smile, and he knew he couldn't live without her.
