Seeing Zhou Jiyun smile, Xie Jing immediately stepped up her game: "Also, these external factors are unavoidable, but you are really very good and outstanding."
"There's no need to talk about character. Let's talk about career. How many people can run a company and take it public at such a young age? Very few, right? If you look at those wealth lists, there really aren't many business elites under 30."
The smile on Zhou Jiyun's face grew bigger and bigger. He suddenly turned over. He was originally half lying on Xie Jing's thighs, but he easily turned over with Xie Jing. Now Xie Jing was lying on his chest, and every part of her was tightly fitted with his.
Xie Jing rested her hands on Zhou Jiyun's chest. Now she no longer blushed easily. She just smiled and said, "Are you happy now?"
Zhou Jiyun smiled, and the mask he had worn before was completely removed: "Yeah, happy."
Xie Jing touched his head: "Just be happy. If you feel unhappy, tell me at any time. Don't keep it in your heart."
Zhou Jiyun understood what Xie Jing meant: "I understand."
In his career, Zhou Jiyun is fearless. But emotionally, he is not as resilient as Xie Jing. He is not as courageous as Xie Jing. Whether in the past or now, Xie Jing is always the more emotionally steadfast one.
Zhou Jiyun and Xie Jing were in love. After accompanying Yun Zhao for a treatment, Yun Xu had the good sense to leave with Zhang Yifan. How could he follow Yun Zhao on a date?
So, that night, he and Zhang Yifan and the others found a place to drink. It's not that they couldn't go home, but what were they going to do? To watch Xie Jing and Zhou Jiyun abuse them?
Everything was moving in a positive direction. Before the annual meeting, Zhou Zhida's verdict came out, and then Zhou Jiwen's verdict came out. As for whether the Yun family had any say in this, no one could say for sure.
Zhou Zhida, needless to say, had committed murder by hiring a hitman, and with Lin Nan's death, he was responsible for three deaths in total, so he was certain to die. Zhou Jiwen, on the other hand, was also sentenced to ten years.
Hearing this news, Zhou Jiyun breathed a sigh of relief. Ten years! For someone like Zhou Jiwen, could he accept spending the best ten years of his life in prison?
When the verdict came out, Zhou Jiyun's breath of relief immediately subsided.
Xishan Cemetery.
Yun Zhao, Yun Xu, Zhang Yifan and others stood in the distance, watching Zhou Jiyun kneeling in front of Zhou Zhihong and Lu Wen's graves, watching him light the verdict, and listening to him talk about his experiences over the years. Everyone's face looked a little sad.
Xie Jing didn't try to comfort Zhou Jiyun. She just wanted him to vent at this moment. There weren't many places in the world where people could vent without any scruples. Zhou Jiyun had been burdened with so much over the years, and he really needed a place to vent.
Watching the verdict burn to ashes, Zhou Jiyun blinked, "Mom and Dad, you can finally rest in peace. Jingjing and I finally helped you get revenge. It really... wasn't easy."
From their past lives to this one, every step they took was incredibly difficult. Now, all those who had harmed them have finally received the retribution they deserved, but they have also lost a lot.
Xie Jing lowered her eyes slightly. It was no wonder that she couldn't be hard-hearted towards Zhou Jiyun, because he was really too pitiful and had really endured too much. As for her feelings towards Zhou Jiyun's parents, she really didn't have much affection. After all, she had never met them or gotten along with them.
But precisely because they had taught Zhou Jiyun so well, Xie Jing was full of gratitude to them.
"Don't worry about me. I'm doing well and have found my life partner. Jingjing is truly wonderful and has always firmly chosen me and tolerated me. If you meet her, you'll definitely like her..."
"After the New Year, I plan to hand over the Zhou family company. Jingjing's family is in the capital, so I plan to move there with her to settle down. Also, I plan to move my parents' grave to the capital so that I can pay my respects there in the future."
"I miss you guys so much... I really do..."
"After Zhou Zhida's verdict came out, I called my grandparents, and my uncle answered the phone. He said they were old and it was inconvenient for them to travel long distances, so they wouldn't be coming back."
"I don't blame my uncle for being cold," Zhou Jiyun said, taking a deep breath. "I just feel that Mom has suffered too much. After all, the Zhou family owes Mom too much. I can understand that my uncle and his family don't want to come back, but the feeling of being abandoned is really bad."
Xie Jing bent down and hugged Zhou Jiyun: "Why bother saying these things and making Mom sad? Now that they have their revenge, let's talk about something happy and stop making them sad."
Zhou Jiyun helped her stand up by holding her hand: "Yes, I should say something happy."
He took Xie Jing's hand and said, "Jingjing's family is doing well. You don't have to worry about me. I won't be alone anymore."
Yun Xu nudged Yun Zhao's elbow. "Tell me, Jing Jing is so nice to Ji Yun. Is it partly because Ji Yun is so pitiful?"
Yun Zhao was surprised: "You just found out? I thought you should have understood when Jingjing said she felt sympathy for Jiyun first."
Yun Xu was puzzled. "Compassion, this is beyond the cliché of love at first sight. How pitiful does a person have to be to make others feel compassion for him?"
Yun Zhao looked at the two people standing side by side in the cold wind and said calmly, "He's not pitiful at all. Jingjing feels sorry for him. With Jingjing's personality, she's only suitable for someone like Zhou Jiyun."
"He looks pitiful and cries easily, but that's only the case in front of Jingjing. In front of others, he's still very composed."
Yun Xu nodded slightly: "Do you think I will find someone who will have compassion on me in the future?"
Yun Zhao laughed: "Our parents are both alive, our parents have a harmonious relationship, and our family atmosphere is warm and happy. What is there about you that deserves others' sympathy?"
"Everyone has their own destiny. I think Jiyun and Jingjing are a perfect match. One seems to have everything, but in the end, has nothing."
"As for Jingjing, she seems to have nothing, but she actually has everything."
Yun Xu muttered, "You and Zhu Li have been together for so long that your words have become a little vague. But you're right, they really are a perfect match."
After leaving the cemetery, Zhou Jiyun felt as if he had thrown off a heavy burden. He held Xie Jing's hand and said, "Before, I was tied to the hatred between my parents. Carrying all this always felt so heavy."
"Now that these ties have been completely severed, I suddenly feel like a bird without legs, with no place to rest anymore."
Xie Jing tightened her grip on Zhou Jiyun's hand. She stopped in her tracks and hugged him in front of everyone. "Then come to me. Didn't I tell you? I am your destiny. No matter how many hardships we have encountered, we will always be together."
