Yu Chuxi spoke in a calm tone: "Father, there is no need to mention this again. I will not leave with him."
The man's voice was the same as usual, like rime on the sea of clouds, and as light as a breeze. But when the breeze blew through Xie Shu's heart, it was still able to create ripples in the deep pool of stagnant water.
At this moment, Xie Shu no longer intended to listen.
After Yu Chuxi said that, he felt as if there was a void in his heart.
However, Yu Chuxi was distracted for only a moment, and then he regained his composure. He looked at Yu Wanli and said in a slow tone, "Father, take good care of yourself. I can support the Yu family, and you don't have to think about bringing anyone back."
The other person that Yu Chuxi was referring to was naturally Yu Wanchun. It had been a year since Yu Wanchun was exiled. With the Yu family secretly taking care of him, although Yu Wanchun's life was not satisfactory, at least his life was not in danger.
Yu Wanchun's three-year sentence has not yet been completed, but the Yu family is not without other options. As far as Yu Chuxi knows, his father has been having someone take care of things for some time.
Yu Wanli was embarrassed after being exposed by Yu Chuxi, and his eyebrows twitched slightly: "He is your second uncle after all."
After that, Yu Wanli sighed helplessly and said, "Chu Xi, I am also thinking about you. Your second uncle has already known his mistake and will never have any other thoughts. Now that the Yu family is under your control, what are you worried about? Your second uncle is mediocre in ability, but he has worked in the Chamber of Commerce for many years. Now that the Yu family is powerful, there will always be things that you cannot take care of. He can help you a little."
Yu Wanli's words were earnest and heartfelt, but at the end, seeing that Yu Chuxi still had no extra expression, he had to stop talking.
In fact, Yu Wanli has always been very upset that he was hesitant in choosing the successor, which led to the quarrel between uncle and nephew. Yu Wanchun did do something unforgivable, but his original intention was to seize power, not to harm Chu Xi's life.
After all, Yu Wanchun was his brother, and Yu Wanli didn't want to die without seeing his second brother again.
Of course, Yu Wanli also knew that whether to forgive his second brother or not was up to Chu Xi to decide. Unfortunately, Chu Xi was a very opinionated person, so he had to figure it out by himself. Other soft and hard tactics would not work...
Not only is he cruel to others, he is even crueler to himself!
Seeing Yu Chuxi make that decision directly just now, although Yu Wanli had expected it, he was still very surprised.
During the past year, Yu Wanli had been recuperating in the backyard, but he knew everything that happened in the mansion. He also had a clear idea of what Chu Xi and Xie Shu were like during this year.
Based on Yu Wanli's understanding of Chu Xi, it is not easy for this child to care so much about someone. Now that Xie Shu is leaving, Chu Xi is willing to let him go.
But Xie Shu is no longer an ordinary person. In the future, can this small Jiangnan, or... the Yu family still keep him?
But Yu Wanli felt that Chu Xi and Xie Shu had a good relationship, and Xie Shu did not seem to be an ungrateful person now. Moreover, the Yu family had taken the initiative, so they could not just let Xie Shu get away like that!
However, Yu Wanli did not expect that Yu Chuxi made such a decisive decision. This child clearly had countless methods, but in the end he chose to let go.
How could this not surprise Yu Wanli?
Yu Wanli was silent for a while, then he looked at Yu Chuxi and said deeply, "Chuxi, did you really mean what you said just now?"
Yu Wanli's weathered eyes were rarely so patient and gentle, but Yu Chuxi had no intention of revealing his true feelings to his father. But for some reason, he could easily admit it, and the words suddenly came out of his throat.
Seeing that Yu Chuxi was still unwilling to talk, Yu Wanli couldn't tell what he felt in his heart, but after a moment, Yu Wanli perked up and said, "Chuxi, since you have decided to stay in Jiangnan, then your father will not say anything more. There is just one thing. I didn't force you before, but you must hurry up now..."
When Yu Chuxi stood up, he noticed that the sky outside had darkened.
It is early spring now and the sun sets earlier. It is the best time of the year with endless dusk outside and spring sunshine stretching far and wide.
Today is the day when Xie Shu passed the imperial examination, and the mansion should celebrate. He has already asked someone to make arrangements, but he doesn't know when Xie Shu will come back?
While thinking, Yu Chuxi walked from the inner room to the outer hall. When he was about to push the door, he found that the door that was originally closed was open.
At this moment, Yu Chuxi's heart suddenly fell straight down. It seemed as if his mind was thinking of nothing, and yet he was thinking of everything.
After a moment, Yu Chuxi calmed down.
Then, without him having to ask, several servants guarding the gate hurriedly explained when Xie Shu had come and when he had left.
As the servants talked, they secretly glanced at Yu Chuxi's expression. In fact, they didn't understand why the son-in-law came out just a short while after he went in, and he didn't look happy. Instead, his aura was quite scary.
However, seeing that their husband showed no abnormal expression, the servants finally felt relieved. They had thought they had just gotten into a big disaster.
Seeing Yu Chuxi return to Tingyu Pavilion, He Feng hurriedly went to meet him and said with a smile: "My dear, everything you ordered is ready. Mr. Xie came back half a quarter of an hour ago and is resting upstairs. I didn't dare to disturb you since you didn't come."
Upon hearing this, Yu Chuxi couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.
Along the way, Yu Chuxi was thinking about what had just happened. He knew that Xie Shu must have heard his words that he didn't want to go with him, so he left without saying a word.
But Xie Shu did not get angry. He returned to Tingyu Pavilion calmly. It seemed that he was not that angry.
Come to think of it, Yu Chuxi had never seen Xie Shu angry. He was always polite and seemed like he would never get angry.
Yu Chuxi hesitated for a moment, and finally asked Feng He to reward the servants, and he went upstairs to find Xie Shu first.
When he pushed open the door of the study, no one was inside. Then, Yu Chuxi went to the door of Xie Shu's room. There was no light on and it was quiet.
Yu Chuxi hesitated for a moment, raised his hand and knocked on the door gently. Seeing no one responded, he couldn't help but frowned slightly and called out: "Xie Shu..."
Before he could finish his words, the door was suddenly opened from the inside, and a hand grabbed him and pulled him in.
In the dim room, Yu Chuxi only felt Xie Shu's arms tightly around him, his broad shoulders almost pressing him firmly against the door. The man's breath swept across his neck, bringing a deep throbbing in his soul.
Before this, Yu Chuxi had never known that Xie Shu would give people such an oppressive feeling, especially when Yu Chuxi lowered his head and refused to look at him, even his breathing seemed more captivating.
Yu Chuxi originally wanted to dodge, but when Xie Shu's warm and cool fingertips slid up along the palm of his hand and pinched his wrist, he couldn't help but tremble slightly, and then shrank back, but this time, it didn't seem like a rejection, but more like silent indulgence.
Xie Shu looked down at his lover who was held obediently in his arms. If his body was as cold as before, it was as hot as before.
At this moment, Xie Shu could hardly control the urge to kiss him, and at the same time, a thought flashed through his mind: little liar.

Xie Shu: He doesn’t seem to love me
