After Shen Haihua left, He Qian jerked awake from her trance and tugged at Zhao Jun’s hand. “Jun, what should we do…”
He Qian’s voice was so coquettish Zhao Jun could not stand it anymore. He raised a hand and gave He Qian a cold, hard slap!
“It’s all your fault, BI-TCH! You’re the reason I lost everything! How dare you ask me what’s next? Do you want to die? Dig a hole and bury yourself!”
As though it was not enough, Zhao Jun landed a kick on He Qian!
“I’m telling you, He Qian. You better keep your condescending eyes to yourself! No one will be able to save you next! Get the f*ck outta here!”
He Qian’s face was as pale as paper. Her eyes had lost their former gleam.
She knew there would no longer be a future with Zhao Jun.
She assumed that all of Zhao Jun’s gifts in the form of sports cars and houses would be taken back too.
He Qian stared long and hard at Ye Chen and Sun Yi’s departing silhouette, clenching her fists.
It was all their fault!
If it was not because of these two, how could she lose everything?
Since young, He Qian thought she was nobility. Her status was not something that someone who led a Cinderella-esque life like Sun Yi could be compared to.
He Qian was jealous of Sun Yi’s good looks and figure. She would not lose the opportunity to make fun of the despicable woman!
It was the same five years ago, and it would be the same five years later!
However, what she failed to realize was that Sun Yi had long surpassed her!
He Qian was curious as to who the hell was that guy that came with Sun Yi?
Who was he to bend the head of River City’s Shen family, Shen Haihua, to his will?
Did Shen Haihua not call him Mister Ye? Was Ye his surname?
There was not a Ye family in Jiangnan Province, right? Then… Was there a Ye family in River City?
Rather unlikely too.
Hold on, there was the Ye family that got massacred!
Suddenly, a name floated up in He Qian’s mind—Ye Chen!
That trash from the Ye family! The same one whose love confession to Chu Shuran sent him spiraling down the endless depth of humiliation!
Then, taking Sun Yi’s relations with that man into consideration, perhaps, the mysterious man was truly Ye Chen!
As He Qian reached the conclusion, her mouth fell open and her pupils widened in terror.
“Ye Chen… Didn’t die? How’s that possible? And he’s back?”
After a seemingly endless pause, He Qian suppressed the shock she felt and retrieved her phone immediately. With decisive fingers, she called a phone number that was both strange and familiar at the same time.
At last, the call connected. A voice devoid of warmth spoke at the other side of the phone, “What do you want?”
“Shuran, I have something very important to tell you!”
“What is it? Say it!” The lady at the other end of the phone sounded impatient.
“I… I think I saw Ye Chen…”
“What?!” He Qian heard the sound of something crashing from the phone. It sounded like the phone had fallen onto the ground. After a while, a female voice continued, “Which Ye Chen? Our classmate from senior high? That useless Ye?”
“Seems… like it, but I’m not quite sure.”
“Come to the Chu family house in two hours!”
The call disconnected.
…
Ye Chen led Sun Yi around the mall for about an hour and had bought around five or six pieces of clothing for her.
Despite saying that it was unnecessary, the moment Sun Yi stepped into the female clothing department, her eyes beamed like the sun—she had no resistance over beautiful clothes.
Even so, Sun Yi chose only those on discount for the entire trip. The shopping spree only cost Ye Chen one or two thousand bucks.
Ye Chen had asked Sun Yi to ignore the prices several times, but she refused.
Therefore, Ye Chen had no choice but to let Sun Yi choose at her own will.
‘At this age and time, women like her are almost impossible to find,’ Ye Chen thought to himself.
During the entire hour, Ye Chen noticed Shen Haihua was following them. Shen Haihua often looked like he was about to speak yet swallowed his words in the end.
Ye Chen paid him no mind and let Shen Haihua followed them as he pleased.
Ye Chen believed a man on the verge of death could not do as much as stirring up a wave.
Once their shopping spree came to an end, Ye Chen and Sun Yi took the elevator down to the carpark. Once they found their car and was about to put down their clothes, they saw Shen Haihua bringing along a pile of clothes over.
“Why are you here?” Ye Chen was clearly pissed. He creased his eyebrows into an annoyed arc.
Shen Haihua gave a small awkward laugh and proceeded to put the clothes into Sun Yi’s car. Then, he said politely, “Mister Ye, I think you’ve misunderstood me. I’m not here for you. I’m here for the lady.”
Sun Yi pointed at herself with a peculiar finger and asked, “President Shen, you’re looking for me?”
Shen Haihua retrieved a bank card and said in a serious tone, “Miss, since you know who I am, I’ll save the trouble of introducing myself. In truth, my purpose in coming here this time is to give you a personal apology for the rude treatment you received from my staff. It’s all my fault for not managing them better. This is a token of gratitude from North Name Corporation, please take it.”
With a glance, Sun Yi knew that there should be not less than five million bucks in the bank card. However, she would never accept money that came out of nowhere like this.
“There’s no need to pay. I didn’t lose anything just now, so you can take it back, President Shen.”
Sun Yi refused without any hesitation.
...
Sun Yi’s refusal was well within Shen Haihua’s expectations. He withdrew the bank card and pointed to the clothes that he placed into the car just now. “Since you refuse to accept my money, you’ll accept these clothes that I’ve casually chosen for you, I hope? They’re not expensive. Point being, even if you return them to me, I’ll have no use for them.”
Sun Yi shifted her attention to the clothes. Soon, her face was full of surprise. These were all the clothes that she was happy with after putting them on in the fitting room. Yet, she did not purchase them because she did not wish to spend Ye Chen’s money meaninglessly.
As a matter of fact,?she felt a little regretful when Sun Yi and Ye Chen got to the car. Who would have known that Shen Haihua had bought every single piece without a miss?
It was apparent that Sun Yi was pleased, but she still refused. “I’m sorry, President Shen. I don’t need these either. I appreciate your kind intentions.”
Ye Chen noticed how pleased Sun Yi was, so he said, “Since President Shen is being very thoughtful, why don’t you accept them, Sun Yi? He can’t wear those clothes as a man anyway.”
Needless to say, Shen Haihua had enough tricks to put himself in this current position.
Shen Haihua knew he was unable to get through to Ye Chen. Therefore, he had started working his way through Sun Yi.
Shen Haihua managed to observe Sun Yi’s real objects of interest when they went shopping. Ye Chen was impressed by Shen Haihua’s acute observation. Please visit 𝘧𝗿𝐞𝐞𝒘𝗲𝘣n𝘰𝘷ℯ𝒍. 𝒄o𝗺
“But…”
Sun Yi was about to say something when Ye Chen interrupted her with a pat on her shoulder. “Get the car running. I’ll be with you soon.”
“Okay…”
...
After Sun Yi got into the car, Ye Chen did not beat around the bush. He said to Shen Haihua, “I’ll give you another chance this time. I’ll go to the Shen family house at nine in the morning tomorrow. Also, you’ll leave me alone. Don’t disturb my life or the people around me. Otherwise, I can cure you but I can also take back your life.”
“Oh, and for the second stage of the treatment, I’m charging you 80 million.”
Hearing Ye Chen’s words, Shen Haihua’s body started to shake violently! Redness started to blossom around his eyes!
Nobody could comprehend the emotions that had seized Shen Haihua at the moment!
He trailed behind Ye Chen for an entire hour just to hear him say that!
Mister Ye’s words meant that he, Shen Haihua, had regained his right to live!
“Thank you… Mister Ye… Thank you.?You’re my parents reincarnated?1?! If there’s anything you need, people from the Shen family will always be at your service!”
The sentence was uttered from the bottom of Shen Haihua’s heart.
Ye Chen was the one who had returned his life to Shen Haihua!
Shen Haihua needed only a nod from Ye Chen’s head to be able to live on!
Ye Chen ignored Shen Haihua. He simply opened the car door and sat inside.
Soon enough, the car disappeared from the basement parking of Myriad Links Square…
Leaving behind Shen Haihua, who was secretly wiping off the tears from his unreadable face.
