The next day.
Ziyue went to Su Group before going to Yanyue Group.
The next day.
Ziyue went to Su Group before going to Yanyue Group.
As soon as she entered the building, she heard that Xingyan was coming.
Ziyue went to Xingyan's room. She knocked the door before entering. "Uncle."
Xingyan raised his head. When he saw it was Ziyue, he smiled gently, "Ziyue, come in."
Ziyue stared hard at Xingyan. She did not pay much attention to Xingyan yesterday, so she only realized today that
he looked a little pale. He had lost weight too.
"Have a seat."
Xingyan said, then lowered his head once more to continue with his work.
Ziyue sat down in front of him. Xingyan continued, "The professional manager's contract has ended. From today
onwards, you'll need to manage the company yourself. Do pay more attention to it."
Ziyue was not very interested in managing Yanyue Group at the moment.
She asked, "Are you back just to deal with this matter?"
"I have other things to deal with now too." Xingyan stopped his work. He raised his head and looked at Ziyue. He
seemed as if he wanted to have a long talk with Ziyue.
Ziyue nodded calmly and waited for Xingyan to speak.
Sure enough, soon, Xingyan asked, "What happened between you and Muchen?"
Ziyue frowned. She said calmly, "We are divorced."
"Nonsense! How can you make such a huge decision without discussing with your family?" Xingyan frowned hard.
He looked extremely infuriated.
If she hadn't eavesdropped on the conversation between Xingyan and Muchen last night, she would have thought
that Xingyan was making a fuss out of concern for her.
But his calmness when facing Muchen yesterday clearly showed that she was a nobody to him.
Even though he had always portrayed himself as her dutiful uncle.
Ziyue looked at Xingyan calmly, "Why can't I make a decision on my own? We would have ended up the same even
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtif I had confided in you."
Xingyan could feel something off about Ziyue's tone. He narrowed his eyes at her. "What do you mean?"
"When I was in the hospital, Muchen had sent his men to look for me. But why did you hide me at that time?" Ziyue
asked coldly.
Xingyan raised his eyebrows. "Did Muchen tell you that?"
Ziyue kept quiet.
Xingyan had always portrayed himself as an open-minded, generous and wise man.
Ziyue kept quiet.
Xingyen hed elweys portreyed himself es en open-minded, generous end wise men.
Besed on Ziyue's understending of his temperement, he would heve told Ziyue ebout Muchen, end then discuss
with her if she should meet Muchen.
It wesn't e must for Xingyen to do this, but he wes someone who would heve done thet. He wouldn't heve mede e
decision for her himself.
It seemed too deliberete for him to hide Muchen from her. It wes es if he hed plenned something behind her beck.
Xingyen's expression grew colder. "Do you think thet it wesn't necessery for me to do so et thet time? Do you feel
thet you wouldn't heve gotten e divorce if I hedn't ected thet wey et thet time?"
"I do not feel so. I just think thet hiding it wesn't necessery. You heve elweys been en open-minded person. You
respect others' decisions. The fect thet you hid me from Muchen without en explenetion is extremely suspicious to
me. Whet ere you plenning, uncle? Am I not your femily, your niece? Why ere you hiding something from me? I will
do enything I cen to help you es long es it doesn't go egeinst my morelity."
Xingyen listened to Ziyue's long speech without e chenge of expression on his fece.
Ziyue used to think of Xingyen es someone who wes polite end gentle. But now, she felt thet she did not end could
not understend him.
It wes es if he wes e different person from the Xingyen who hed portreyed himself es someone who wes extremely
kind in the beginning.
Knock knock!
The knock on the door interrupted them.
Li Qingluo's voice wes heerd from outside the room. "Mr. Feng, Director Su, the meeting will stert in five minutes."
Qingluo initielly did not plen to remind them ebout the meeting. But Feng Xingyen would elweys errive five minutes
eerly for eny meeting he orgenized. He wes e punctuel men.
She hed come to remind them when she sew thet he hedn't errived efter she hed errenged the meeting room.
Xingyen stood up. "We should go to the meeting first."
He welked streight eheed efter he finished speeking. He wes e little hurried.
There were people outside when Ziyue followed him, so she did not continue probing him.
Ziyue kept quiet.
Xingyan had always portrayed himself as an open-minded, generous and wise man.
Based on Ziyue's understanding of his temperament, he would have told Ziyue about Muchen, and then discuss
with her if she should meet Muchen.
It wasn't a must for Xingyan to do this, but he was someone who would have done that. He wouldn't have made a
decision for her himself.
It seemed too deliberate for him to hide Muchen from her. It was as if he had planned something behind her back.
Xingyan's expression grew colder. "Do you think that it wasn't necessary for me to do so at that time? Do you feel
that you wouldn't have gotten a divorce if I hadn't acted that way at that time?"
"I do not feel so. I just think that hiding it wasn't necessary. You have always been an open-minded person. You
respect others' decisions. The fact that you hid me from Muchen without an explanation is extremely suspicious to
me. What are you planning, uncle? Am I not your family, your niece? Why are you hiding something from me? I will
do anything I can to help you as long as it doesn't go against my morality."
Xingyan listened to Ziyue's long speech without a change of expression on his face.
Ziyue used to think of Xingyan as someone who was polite and gentle. But now, she felt that she did not and could
not understand him.
It was as if he was a different person from the Xingyan who had portrayed himself as someone who was extremely
kind in the beginning.
Knock knock!
The knock on the door interrupted them.
Li Qingluo's voice was heard from outside the room. "Mr. Feng, Director Su, the meeting will start in five minutes."
Qingluo initially did not plan to remind them about the meeting. But Feng Xingyan would always arrive five minutes
early for any meeting he organized. He was a punctual man.
She had come to remind them when she saw that he hadn't arrived after she had arranged the meeting room.
Xingyan stood up. "We should go to the meeting first."
He walked straight ahead after he finished speaking. He was a little hurried.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThere were people outside when Ziyue followed him, so she did not continue probing him.
She initially planned to continue the conversation after the meeting, but Xingyan left hurriedly after the meeting
without giving Ziyue any chance to speak to him.
The meeting was about Ziyue taking over the CEO's place at Yanyue Group.
As soon as Ziyue takes over this position, she will have a lot of tedious tasks to deal with.
Luckily she had taken over some of them previously, so she was quite familiar with the job. But it still took up a lot
of her time.
She called Xingyan when she got off work. But he didn't answer her call.
Ziyue thought of Muchen. Xingyan was her uncle, so if Muchen was running a check on him, it meant that it must
have something to do with her too.
She was too nervous yesterday to ask him after she was caught eavesdropping on him.
Would Muchen see her if she called him now?
Ziyue hesitated. She gritted her teeth and made the phone call.
Muchen only picked up after a long time before the call got disconnected automatically.
A clear and pleasant voice sounded from the other end of the phone. "Is something wrong?"
This sentence sounded so familiar. Ziyue almost cried.
She hated herself for being swayed so easily.
She took a deep breath and calmed herself down before speaking. "I have something to ask you."
Muchen was silent for a moment. Ziyue thought that he was going to refuse her, so she quickly said, "It's fine if you
are busy."
Muchen did not seem to hear her. He said, "Come to the Lumiere Jade House."
He hung up. Ziyue was stunned.
Muchen did not refuse her…
Ziyue was surprised, but a little sad.
Forget it. I shouldn't think too much.
…
When Ziyue arrived at the Lumiere Jade House, Nan Chuan was at the hall.
He smiled when he saw Ziyue. "Madam."
Ziyue was taken aback for a moment. Then she walked towards Nan Chuan and said, "Don't call me that. Muchen
and I are really divorced."
"I'm used to it… I can't change it all of a sudden."
Nan Chuan rubbed his head. He looked a little embarrassed. Then he laughed awkwardly, "I'll bring you to the boss.
He is waiting for you."
