Chapter 354 - Counter Every MoveChapter 354: Counter Every Move
The more Wei Zhou thought about Su Yan’s indifferent gaze, the more his heart ached. He even felt a sense of despair. He had confessed to Su Yan in front of so many people last night, but she had remained indifferent to him. Not only was she not touched at all, instead, she had expressed her impatience to him. He felt as if he was really going to lose Su Yan.
The phone on the table vibrated. Wei Zhou took a look and his expression immediately turned cold. The call was from Mrs. Wei, Zhong Cuiping. He didn’t need to ask to know what the other party wanted to say.

After lunch, Su Yan lay on the bed and prepared to take a nap. However, Xia Zijian called her. Su Yan picked up the phone. “Young Master Xia?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtXia Zijian’s voice sounded, “You saw the trending search, right?”
Su Yan said, “Yes, I’ve troubled you, Young Master Xia.”
Xia Zijian smiled and said, “It’s not troublesome at all. I just told my dad to speak up for you. No one expected him to say that. Now that this matter has gone viral and has exceeded expectations, my dad felt that it was a little inappropriate. He accidentally caused this matter, so he wanted me to treat you to a meal as an apology.”
Su Yan smiled and said, “There’s no need to treat me to a meal. Help me tell President Xia that these matters have no effect on me. Tell him not to worry too much and do whatever he wants on the internet. It doesn’t have any effect on me anyway.”
It was just momentary. Anyway, most of the comments were positive towards her. Seeing that Su Yan was in a pretty good mood, Xia Zijian said, “That won’t do. My dad has given the order. I don’t dare to disobey him. When you have time, feel free to tell me what you want to eat.”
Su Yan said in a low voice, “Young Master Xia, I appreciate your and President Xia’s kind intentions, but I really can’t dine with you. We’ve just been on the trending search together. If we eat together at this juncture, what if we reappear on the trending search?”
Xia Zijian said straightforwardly, “Don’t you want to anger Wei Zhou?”
Hearing this, Su Yan was amused. She felt that Xia Zijian was really like a child. “Young Master Xia, you’ve misunderstood. Wei Zhou and I broke up peacefully. There’s no resentment between us, so I don’t need to anger him, because there’s no point in doing that.”
If she had to admit it, then there was only unwillingness and helplessness in her heart. Three years of marriage was so peaceful that it was like the surface of a still lake without the slightest ripple. She and Wei Zhou hadn’t even had a proper fight. The one who couldn’t let go of this relationship was the real loser. She had been the loser for three years and now, she wanted to be the winner. Therefore, she moved on from this relationship from the bottom of her heart. The one who had been pestering her was always Wei Zhou.
“If that’s the case, then I respect your choice. But my dad really seems to admire you. It’s his birthday next week. I wonder if he can have the honor to invite you to Hong Kong to attend? If my dad sees you, he will definitely be very happy. President Su, would you be willing to give him this honor?” Xia Zijian tried again and again. It seemed that he wouldn’t stop until Su Yan relented.
“President Xia’s birthday?” Su Yan raised her eyebrows.
“That’s right. It happens to be his sixty-sixth birthday. A person can only celebrate it once in their lifetime,” Xia Zijian replied.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“No problem. Since President Xia is celebrating his birthday, I will go.” Su Yan thought for a moment and finally agreed. She had no choice but to agree. Xia Jiang was celebrating his sixty-sixth birthday, and Xia Zijian had already said so. If she didn’t go, it would be too disrespectful.
“Then it’s a deal. I’ll get someone to book the tickets in a while.” Xia Zijian was obviously much happier.
“Young Master Xia, there’s no need. I can...” before Su Yan could finish her sentence, Xia Zijian interrupted her.
“You don’t have to be so polite. I want to buy the tickets anyway. Why don’t we book them together? Alright, I won’t bother you with anything else. Bye!” After saying that, Xia Zijian hung up the phone without any hesitation.
Looking at the phone screen, Su Yan didn’t know how to react. As a person who started from scratch, she had experienced countless things and seen countless people. People like Wei Zhou were cold and aloof, and people like Xia Jiang were sly foxes. She could deal with any kind of person, but she was inexperienced with people like Xia Zijian, who didn’t follow the normal routine. Since she knew that Xia Zijian had a good impression of her, she felt as if all her resistance had become pointless. No matter what method she used, Xia Zijian would be able to counter every move.
