Even after arriving in the ancient city, Shen Shixun was still busy with work, trying to move orders from the farm to the ancient city.
Xiang Nanzhi received a call asking him to go to the forest farm and accompany him, but Shen Shixun politely declined.
"If you come to the ancient city but don't come with me, where do you want to go?"
"I also have work to do."
Xiang Nanzhi smiled and didn't ask any further questions. "See you tonight?"
"good."
The man spent the whole day visiting all the places he had planned to discuss business with. In particular, Deji Ranch was located on the plateau, guaranteeing the quality of its dairy and meat products. In addition, since he was from Saigon, many people were willing to cooperate with him.
Shen Shixun felt that the day's run had been effective, so he called Rooney at 1 p.m.
"Prepare the contracts and send them to me. We have a few deals coming in the ancient city that will be signed in the next few days."
Is it reliable?
Rooney is lazy; asking him to run errands is like taking his life. "Are you sure? If you're not sure, I won't deliver it. It's such a long way."
"Stop talking nonsense and send it to me today."
Rooney sighed. "You don't treat me like a human being."
"You have Gila and the children by your side, and you're still not satisfied?"
Rooney thought about it and realized it made sense. "Well... well... you wait here."
Just as Shen Shixun was about to hang up, he suddenly said, "Shixun."
"how?"
"Sona has been asking you a lot these past two days, and she seems a bit out of it."
"I don't need to explain much to her about my affairs; I've already made myself clear enough."
"After all, they've helped you here for two years."
Shen Shixun suddenly fell silent. Rooney sighed, "He said he wanted to resign, what am I supposed to say?"
"I will call her myself to communicate with her."
Sona knows a lot. She has seen the outside world and knows how to assign people to which positions and how to use people effectively.
She's smart too.
For the sake of the bigger picture, Shen Shixun did not want her to leave the ranch.
As evening approached and darkness fell, the ancient city seemed to become even more bustling...
He stood on the overpass, lit a cigarette, and frowned as he looked down at the congested traffic...
People who are used to living on the grasslands will be amazed by the magnificent scenery before them. There are always higher mountains to climb, and this is truly a sight to behold.
He drew a number and called Sona, who answered quickly.
"Sona, it's me."
She remained silent and did not speak.
Shen Shixun frowned. "I've always considered you a friend, and I've made that very clear from the beginning."
Over the years, he hasn't done anything that would make her overthink or cause her to misunderstand.
Sona knew she was just being delusional, but before Xiang Nanzhi appeared, she still harbored illusions, believing that time could change everything, and that so much time had passed, so it didn't matter what had happened before.
After a long silence, Shen Shixun spoke again, "We've been friends for a long time, and you've watched the farm grow step by step to where it is now. I don't want you to leave. You'll have better opportunities here, and compared to other places, this place is of higher quality."
Sona suddenly laughed, "You certainly know how to comfort people."
“Gila, Rooney, Benjamin, and Cour all like you very much, and as a friend, I hope you can stay.”
"What would I do if I stayed? Become a joke?"
Nobody's making fun of you.
Sona took a deep breath. "Sehun, are you still willing to turn back?"
She meant, would he still be willing to choose to live the way he did before?
The man remained silent. "Whether I turn back or not, Nan Zhi will always be by my side."
Wherever he goes, the only person by his side is Xiang Nanzhi.
Sona knew she couldn't compare to Xiang Nanzhi, so she lowered her eyes and said, "Will you regret it? If you do regret it someday, then it's a pity..."
“I won’t regret it. You should also look forward. There are better opportunities for development if you stay on the farm. Everyone needs you.”
Sona smiled and said, "I'll consider it, Sehun. I'll consider it."
That's all I have to say. The choice is ultimately hers.
Shen Shixun didn't try to persuade him anymore. After hanging up the phone, his cigarette had burned out. He took his car keys and headed towards the forest farm.
The sand dates in Xiangnanzhi have grown very tall now, and their export is quite standardized. With Sun Xing's help, the date trees are growing better every day.
For the Xiang family, the jujube tree was not a profitable business, but Xiang Nanzhi never caused any trouble in the sandy area.
There were also occasional, bolder ideas about large underground coal mines, but Xiang Nanzhi resolutely rejected them, thus earning a good reputation.
"Uncle Sun, I'll leave the rest of these orders to you. If there's anything in your fields that I can help with, I'll have someone go there immediately."
Sun Xing and Xiang Nanzhi are mutually supportive; he has helped Xiang Nanzhi a lot, and Xiang Nanzhi will help him in return, so neither of them suffers a loss.
"Are you still planning to export the jujubes?"
“That’s right, I have a contract with the Li family.”
After explaining things to Nan Zhi, he was about to leave to contact Shen Shixun to go back for dinner when Li Luchuan arrived.
Xiang Nanzhi now feels extremely awkward whenever she sees him. Ever since she learned that he was Shen Shixun's half-brother, she has been unable to look at her past relationship with Li Luchuan in the same light.
Xiang Nanzhi forced a smile, and standing two meters away from him, deliberately took two steps back. "Why are you here?"
"Just came to see you."
"Look at me?"
Xiang Nanzhi laughed and said, "What's so interesting about me?"
Li Luchuan looked at her meaningfully, "I thought you would persuade him to return to the Li family. If he comes back, he can interfere in Li Ran's affairs, and it will be much more convenient for you or the Xiang family to get things done in the future."
We don't even need to go through him anymore.
The Li family will also be embroiled in endless internal strife.
Xiang Nanzhi disagreed, turned around, picked up a bottle of water from the table, unscrewed it, and took a sip. "I don't need to use my husband to achieve any purpose. Whether he goes back to Li Ran or not has little to do with me. No matter what he does, he is still my husband."
"Nanzhi, be more clear-headed."
This is something that can be balanced; she only needs to show her attitude to get Shen Shixun to make a decision.
“He has his own things to do, and he doesn’t necessarily have to go back to Li Ran. He’s been doing quite well these past few years away from your Li family. If you really want to care about this much, you might as well advise your father to give up this idea as soon as possible.”
Xiang Nanzhi's answer surprised Li Luchuan.
He didn't really want to discuss this with her when he came to see her; he just wanted an excuse to meet her.
As Xiang Nanzhi was about to leave after speaking, Li Luchuan suddenly pulled her, startling her so much that she instantly got goosebumps.
"Li Luchuan, what are you doing?"
She quickly pulled her hand away, and her expression immediately changed.
"If only I hadn't chosen to leave the ancient city back then..."
"Are you crazy?"
