novelWhat Was the Point of Staying on the Defensive
| ← Ch.0533 | Ch.0535 → |
Little Pure, I'm sorry. Forgive me for not telling you this until now.
Jin Zhuwen unconsciously wiped away his tears as he watched Zhou Manzhen and Lantau recognize each other. Ye Junwen, who was standing to the side, quietly moved to her side, pressing his head against his shoulder with his warm palm, tightly wrapping his arm around her.
Jin Zhuwen was twitching, and in her heart, she was really happy for the three of them.
A warm and touching atmosphere lingered in the villa, but the pressure in the "Left Bank Courtyard" was depressing.
Yu Xin had not seen Zhou Manzhu for three whole days. She refused to sleep even if she was dead tonight, yelling that she wanted to see Zhou Manzhen. Yu Chen felt a headache from her, so she sent her child to Sister Li's room and asked her to accompany her to sleep with Little Xin while she hid in her room and drank.
Yu Chen had been out of contact with the outside world for three whole days, but he had never been to YC Group. Pei Haoran, his assistant, was extremely anxious as he visited the 'Left Bank Courtyard' late at night.
Sister-in-law Li had just coaxed Yu Xin to sleep when she heard the doorbell ring. She hurriedly ran to open the door and saw Pei Haoran standing there with a frown on his face.
"Assistant Pei?" Sister Li looked at Pei Haoran in shock. It was already past 11 in the morning, why was Assistant Pei here?
"Sister Li, is Wu Yu still around?" Pei Haoran asked anxiously.
"Yes, in the room."
Without another word, Pei Haoran entered the villa and followed Aunt Li to Yu Chen's room.
However, the door was tightly locked. Pei Haoran turned the handle and knocked on the door. There was no sound coming from inside.
"Sister Li, are you sure Director Wu Yu is inside?" Pei Haoran frowned, feeling uneasy for a long time.
"Mn, Boss Wu??" Ever since he came back from the United States that day, he had been locked in his room. This evening, he came out once.
"What is going on?" Pei Haoran's heroic face was filled with worry as he asked in a puzzled ma er.
"It seems like Director Wu and Madam Wu are divorced." That day, when Jin Beisheng rushed into the Yu Clan, Sister Li hid in the kitchen and listened to their argument. In her heart, she could roughly guess why Yu Chen was so desperate.
"Sister Li, do you have a spare key at home?" Pei Haoran asked decisively, as an ominous sign suddenly appeared in his heart.
Sis Li frowned as she thought about it. She vaguely recalled that the spare key was in a cupboard in the living room. Zhou Manzhen had told her about it at that time.
She rubbed her hands on her pajamas twice before saying anxiously, "Assistant Pei, wait for me, I'll go look around."
Pei Haoran stood at the door and refused to give up. He knocked on the door, "CEO, are you inside? Something happened at the company."
Yu Chen had long since heard the commotion outside. He sat on the floor, drinking wine, wine bottles strewn everywhere in a disorderly fashion. He wished that he could get drunk like this, but heaven had refused him.
Yu Chen had never been so depressed in his entire life. Even when Liu Anya had jumped off the building, she had never been like this. At that time, Yu Chen wanted to find out the truth behind her mother's jump, so she chose to be the prosecutor.
Remembering the bloodstained past, Yu Chen flung the wine bottle towards the floor, causing the yellow liquid to flow out and soak the expensive wooden floor.
Pei Haoran was at the door, listening for any sounds coming from inside. Suddenly, he heard the sound of glass shattering, and knocked on the door anxiously, "CEO, I know you're inside. Open the door, I have something to say to you."
At this moment, no one cared about Yu Chen. He felt as if he had been abandoned by the entire world. First, Liu Anya abandoned him and jumped off a building, and then Zhou Manzhen abandoned him and Jin Beisen.
He might as well just die and get it over with!
He wanted to give Zhou Manzhen a powerful backer. Yu Chen was indifferent to fame and fortune, and was extremely similar to Liu Anya. In his entire life, he would not fight with anyone, and only Zhou Manzhen was the one he most wanted to fight with Jin Beiseng.
If Zhou Manzhen left, what was the point of him staying with the YC Corporation?
They lived in Manhattan and had a villa decorated in exactly the same style. At that time, Zhou Manzhen was always by Yu Chen's side. Yu Chen had always thought that they would have a long time to live together in the future??
Sister-in-law Li hurriedly ran up with a bunch of keys in her hand. There were too many doors at home, so she didn't know which one was the key to the door. She passed the key to Pei Haoran and tried it out.
After trying more than ten keys, Pei Haoran finally opened the door. The room was filled with the pungent smell of smoke and alcohol. Pei Haoran stretched out his hand and fa ed the foul air.
It was pitch black in the master bedroom. Yu Chen didn't turn on the light. Pei Haoran used his phone to look at the surroundings and finally found Yu Chen in a corner.
"CEO." Pei Haoran shouted loudly, his tone was agitated.
Wu Chen didn't reply, as though he hadn't heard anything. His gaze was dazed as he stared off into the distance, hugging a light pink nightgown.
Pei Haoran turned on the lights and walked over. The dazzling lights made it hard for Yu Chen to adapt. His brows were deeply furrowed, and he covered his eyes with his hands as he pursed his lips.
"President, why are you doing this? Do you know that I was dying of anxiety during the three days you were gone? " Pei Haoran stared at the dejected Yu Chen, his heart twitching uncontrollably.
It had only been a few days since they last met, but that gentle, jade-like Yu Chen had turned into such an appearance. His face was ashen, and the stubble on his chin had grown out.
"Haoran, it's you." Yu Chen calmly gazed at Pei Haoran, an indifferent expression plastered on his face.
"CEO, take it that I'm begging you, don't be like this, what's YC Group going to do?" Pei Haoran's heart was burning with anxiety. The founding of YC Corporation was not an easy task. He had been following Yu Chen for the past three years and witnessed how many people she had brought back with her own eyes. He truly felt sorry for their CEO.
Yu Chen's pupils constricted as a sharp glint of light flashed past his eyes. He then laughed coldly, "Haha??"
"CEO, I'll count it as you and..."You divorced Miss Zhou, but at least you still have Little Xin. You'll still have a chance to meet Miss Zhou in the future, and if you really like her, then you should pull yourself together right now and snatch Miss Zhou from Jin Beiseng's side."
