"What do you mean?" Zhang Youye's expression changed.
Shu Qianxin explained cautiously, "The other party was afraid that you wouldn't want to see her, so she asked me to call you."
"Since we're already here, let's wait a little longer. I only agreed to meet you because she said there were other developments regarding my father."
"Does your brother know about this?" Zhang Youye pressed.
"Knowing that he had become the company's acting director, I figured he would be very busy. So I... I didn't tell him, and I came here without telling him."
Only that arrogant young lady, who is just as proud of him, could get Shu Qianxin to help without letting Shu Chuanran know.
Just as he was about to get up and leave, thinking about how annoying this young lady was, Zhang Youye changed his mind and flicked the ash from the ashtray with his fingers.
"You go back first, I'll wait for her here."
“Brother Yuno, I… I’m scared. I want to listen here with you.”
Glancing at Shu Qianxin's hesitant expression, as if she didn't want to get up and leave, Zhang Youye pulled out his phone and eagerly swiped his fingers to call Shu Chuanran.
"Scared? Then I'll call your brother and have him pick you up, so I don't have to send someone else home."
Here we go again, it's been like this since I was little.
Whenever Zhang Youye didn't want to be alone with her, he would always use Shu Chuanran as a shield.
Biting her lip, a rebellious thought arose in Shu Qianxin's mind. She decided to throw caution to the wind and sit on the sofa with her arms crossed.
"Go ahead and hit me, I just want to stay here today."
Seeing that Shu Chuanran's shield seemed to have lost its effectiveness, Zhang Youye pulled down the brim of his hat, leaned back lazily on the sofa, and spoke with an unspoken warning in his tone.
"What are you planning to do here? Once Qin Miyou arrives, do you think she'll let you stay?"
(The sudden appearance of Tie Niu: To explain, Qin Miyou took her mother's surname.)
Whether influenced by the name or overwhelmed by Zhang Youye's warning, a clear look of surprise flashed across Shu Qianxin's face.
Considering the young lady's arrogant nature, she deflated and lowered her arms.
Picking up her backpack, Shu Qianxin dragged her heavy steps to Zhang Youye.
"Then I'll go first, Brother Yuno, I, I..."
Shifting his gaze from the phone screen, Zhang Youye slightly raised his eyes: "Is there anything else you want to say?"
The air was still for a moment. After much deliberation, as if gathering her courage, Shu Qianxin clenched her fists at her sides.
"Brother Yuno, are you really not going to consider me? Actually, I really like..."
Before she could even finish the last syllable, Zhang Youye couldn't help but interrupt her trembling voice.
"I'm not considering it, I don't like it. I only have one thing to say: don't waste your time on me, it's useless."
After saying that, he once again looked away from his expressionless gaze and lowered his head to look at the phone in his palm.
In Shu Qianxin's view, the moment he looked at his phone, a smile appeared on his usually calm lips.
The person on the other end of the phone must be Shu Yi.
Such an unruly person, who wouldn't even deign to give a glance, who looked down on everyone equally, is the one Shu Qianxin has been unable to forget for so many years.
And just like that, it was snatched away by the suddenly appearing Shu Yi.
The other person didn't even do anything; just by standing there, they completely captivated his heart.
After briefly going through the fragments of memory, Shu Qianxin suddenly realized that, apart from Shu Yi, it seemed that no one could make Zhang Youye's face show any extra emotions.
Thinking about it this way, Shu Qianxin recalled the arrogant attitude of the eldest daughter of the Qin family.
If the arrogant Qin Miyou and the calm and collected Shu Yi were to meet...
It's anyone's guess what unexpected situation might occur between the two of them.
After all, the younger generation in this circle are very clear about this—
Back then, Qin Miyou confidently declared that she would definitely win Zhang Youye's heart.
Shu Qianxin was a timid and cowardly woman.
She admitted it.
But Qin Miyou, like Zhang Youye, was a rebellious child who had never been disciplined since childhood.
Needless to say, Shu Yi was even more so.
They may appear unassuming and indifferent to worldly desires, but if they were to resort to underhanded tactics behind the scenes, they would be ruthless and leave no stone unturned.
As the saying goes, when two tigers fight, one will surely be injured.
She'll definitely be sitting in the front row to watch this great show.
