Xiang Nanzhi hadn't eaten at the old house in a long time. It was a rare occasion for them to get together, but he always felt that something was missing.
Xiang Nian was still shy around strangers. Xiang Yun kept trying to talk to her, but Xiang Nian ignored him and clung to Xiang Nanzhi, clinging to her.
After finishing their meal, Xiang Zhengyi took Xiang Yun's hand and went upstairs to play, with Xiang Nanzhi accompanying them. Shen Shixun, on the other hand, smoked in the yard while talking on the phone with Rooney.
In recent years, Rooney's competence has improved significantly; if he wants to get something done, he can get it done.
But he's lazy and avoids putting in any effort himself whenever possible.
You should come back as soon as possible.
"What? You're not coming back?"
What will happen to the farm?
"Sehun, are you really going to betray me like this?"
Rooney was cursing and swearing, extremely annoyed. Why was he always the one suffering? He was before, and he is now.
“Gila is right here beside you, what else do you have to choose? Either I let Gila remarry, and I’ll find another brother-in-law.”
"You...you...you dare!"
"Should we do it or not?"
"No, you're really not coming back, you're really not coming back?"
"You're in charge of everything, big or small. If you can't handle something, call me. During holidays..."
He looked up; the moon over the ancient city was quite round tonight. "Take care of my mother for me. I'll come back for holidays and festivals."
"Oh well."
Just as Shen Shixun was about to hang up, Rooney suddenly said, "By the way, Sona asked you something today."
Sona arrived late; by the time she got to the farm, Shen Shixun had already left with Xiang Nanzhi.
“Sona has been acting strange since last night.”
Everyone could see that Sona liked him, and Shen Shixun wasn't stupid either.
Rooney sighed, "I thought you and Snow Lotus had no chance. Everyone thought you and Sona were a good match, and Sona probably already considered herself yours."
Shen Shixun did feel somewhat ashamed about this matter.
"She cried and asked Jira today, 'Will you ever come back?'"
"Won't."
“Just like Gila said, she said the same thing, that you wouldn’t come back. Sona sat alone until noon, then turned around and left.”
Rooney sighed as he spoke, "If she leaves."
"Let her leave."
"Then tell me honestly, all this time..."
"No, I haven't touched it."
Shen Shixun knew what he wanted to ask, but he was upright and honest, and if he hadn't done it, he hadn't done it.
He always thought about Xiang Nanzhi, worked hard in his career, and could no longer see anything else.
"You've made up your mind, and you're not changing it?"
He had made up his mind. He would rather be with Xiang Nanzhi and rarely return to the grasslands than accept Sona. He didn't love her.
"That's really ruthless."
We have to be ruthless. It's better to cut the Gordian knot than to leave things lingering. Otherwise, Zhizhi will be unhappy.
After he finished the call, he turned around and saw Xiang Nanzhi standing behind him. The cigarette in the man's hand had long since gone out, leaving only a cigarette butt.
"Shen Shixun".
"Um?"
"What is your relationship with Li Qingyuan, and what is your relationship with Li Luchuan?"
If her older brother hadn't told her, she would have been completely kept in the dark.
"You found out?"
Looking back, Xiang Nanzhi realized that Shen Shixun's departure from the ancient city was probably partly due to this reason...
She even drew and made Buddha statues in front of Shen Shixun, and looking back, she felt like a fool.
But she knew Shen Shixun's thoughts too well, so she felt even more guilty.
"Buddha statue."
"I did know that through the Buddha statue."
"So you also know about your relationship with Li Luchuan?"
"He probably knew it earlier than I did."
The confrontation and the framing, he later learned the truth and understood that they were not baseless rumors.
Xiang Nanzhi ran a few steps forward to catch up with him, burying her head in his chest.
"You want to persuade me?"
"No, I won't try to persuade you. You can do whatever you want."
Song Ze invited someone out to discuss business, and the topic of the Zhai family came up.
"Zhai Ying is probably on guard; she has a very good relationship with Zhang Yandong."
"Don't worry about her."
Song Ze was already married to her and they spent every day together, so he knew Zhai Ying's capabilities.
If Zhai Ying hadn't been incapable of managing the company, he wouldn't have had the chance to marry her.
Song Ze never does anything without a certainty; he always wants to gain something from it.
"What if she asks Zhang Yandong for help..."
"She will never forget how her brother died, and she may never forgive Zhang Yandong in this lifetime."
Song Ze took a sip of his drink when he suddenly heard a noise outside.
He narrowed his eyes slightly. "Go take a look..."
"It was a woman, I didn't see her clearly."
Song Ze, dressed in a suit, swirled the wine glass in his hand and said, "Let's go and take a look."
Just as his men arrived at the door, Jiang Yao drove away. Song Ze's men recognized her car, so she quickly went back to tell him.
"It's Miss Jiang."
"Which Miss Jiang?"
Ever since Jiang Yao opened her teahouse, Song Ze has had virtually no private contact with her, and over time he has forgotten about her.
The bodyguard lowered his head and gave him a meaningful look. Song Ze then realized, "It's Jiang Yao."
If he hadn't been reminded, he would have completely forgotten that he had such an excellent ex-girlfriend.
When she married Zhai Ying, Xiang Nanzhi and Jiang Yao appeared at the wedding. At the time, when watching the surveillance footage, it was impossible to know what the two had been doing there. Looking back now, it seems they were deliberately trying to cause trouble.
Jiang Yao drove back in a panic, and was still somewhat shaken when she stopped in the parking lot...
She gasped for breath, feeling her heart pounding. She looked around to make sure no one was following her before quickly getting out of the car, grabbing her bag, and going upstairs.
