Chapter 525: Return

After nine o'clock, Xie Hongzu, who was sleeping sweetly on the sofa, woke up with a start and hurriedly turned off the buzzing vibrating phone alarm.

He sat up straight, let out a long breath, and rubbed his face vigorously, letting himself quickly wake up from the deep sleep just now.

"Brother Wang." He greeted Wang Yan, who was looking at him, poured a cup of tea that Wang Yan was drinking, and nodded. "Good tea."

Wang Yan smiled; this kid didn't know how to drink tea at all. "Why did you set an alarm?"

"I have to buy something for Suosuo, oh, and Nansun, she hasn't eaten either. It will be noon in a while. Do you want to eat something?" Seeing Wang Yan shake his head, Xie Hongzu stood up and put his hands together. "Okay, then I'll buy something, I'm going out first, Brother Wang, please open the door for me later, please."

Wang Yan nodded with a smile. "Go."

Xie Hongzu changed his shoes lightly at the door, opened the door and went out carefully, and pushed the door shut lightly. He really treated Zhu Suosuo as an ancestor, just afraid of waking Zhu Suosuo...

Jiang Nansun opened the bedroom door and walked out. Seeing Wang Yan sitting on the sofa drinking tea and reading, she took a bottle of mineral water from the refrigerator, drank it while sitting on Wang Yan's lap. "When did you come?"

"After seven."

"Just now I seemed to hear someone talking? Who were you talking to?"

"Xie Hongzu, he only left before you came out, went out to buy food."

"He really waited downstairs all night?" Seeing Wang Yan's confusion, Jiang Nansun told him about Xie Jiayin looking for Zhu Suosuo again. "So Xie Hongzu ran over last night and said he wanted to marry Suosuo, and said he could find a job to support the family, as long as he could be with Suosuo, he would do anything. Suosuo said a few words to him, it didn't make sense at all, and then Xie Hongzu said he would wait downstairs, let Suosuo calm down, and don't say angry words. Now it seems that this Xie Hongzu is really persistent."

Wang Yan smiled. "Suosuo has charm."

"You really don't care?"

"This is her right."

Jiang Nansun curled her lips, got off Wang Yan's lap, and turned to the bathroom to wash up.

Perhaps Jiang Nansun's movement of washing up disturbed Zhu Suosuo, and after a few minutes, she also walked out. Similarly, she got a bottle of mineral water, drank it in gulps, and sat on the sofa next to Wang Yan.

"I just seemed to hear Nansun talking to you about Xie Hongzu?"

Wang Yan nodded. "Xie Hongzu waited downstairs all night, I brought him up when I came over in the morning, and after a nap, he went out to buy food for you."

"Did Nansun tell you about yesterday?"

"No need to hide it, Xie Hongzu also told me roughly, he is really sincere to you."

"How long can sincerity last, who knows?" Zhu Suosuo sighed. "He is also really interesting, wanting to live a plain and ordinary life with me. And his mother, Xie Jiayin, doesn't look up to me at all, you heard it, right? Still saying it's an old trick, leaving evidence to sue me for extortion later, how vicious her heart is. Xie Hongzu still wants to live or die to let me be with him, if it's like this, I will be aggrieved to death in the future, I really don't know what he is thinking."

Wang Yan smiled. "Perhaps in his eyes, you are a woman who is not moved by material things, strives upward, and loves life."

"Forget it, who doesn't know who. Yesterday Nansun and I talked for half the night; Xie Hongzu said Xie Jiayin's was an old trick, which means this kind of thing has been done before, and it also means that Xie Hongzu once treated other women like this before, and was finally broken up by Xie Jiayin. He keeps saying he loves me, likes me, and wants to have a house, two people, three meals, and four seasons with me; I don't believe it at all.

And yesterday, after discussing with Nansun, we finally thought it might be that Xie Hongzu has been suppressed by Xie Jiayin for too long, and he is twenty-four, so he is eager to resist and get rid of Xie Jiayin's control. So, the more Xie Jiayin doesn't let him do, the more he wants to do it. Maybe he really has some true feelings for me, but men are never long-term, and the richer the man, the less long-term."

"Speak when you speak, why say men are not long-term to me?" Wang Yan shook his head; he was always responsible to the end, this was really wronging a good person.

Zhu Suosuo rolled her eyes and said nothing, her big white legs resting on Wang Yan's crossed legs and shaking, teasing.

"Don't look for trouble."

"Meaningless." Zhu Suosuo drank a big mouthful of water again, sitting there playing with her phone.

After a while, Jiang Nansun finished washing up, and Zhu Suosuo went to the bathroom to wash up. Both were quite beautiful, and they were resting at home, so they had no other activities, so they didn't wear makeup, and their bare faces were quite good, so the speed of washing up was still quite fast.

Of course, no matter how fast the women washed up, it wasn't like men, just wiping their faces with some water and brushing their teeth. So not long after the two women washed up one after another, the phone on the coffee table in front of Wang Yan rang.

Zhu Suosuo took a look, hung up the phone, got up and returned to the room to take her coat and put it on, and opened the door at the entrance.

Xie Hongzu, carrying a pile of things, was stunned when he saw Zhu Suosuo appearing in front of him, then smiled. "Suosuo, you're awake? Did you sleep well yesterday? Food I bought for you and Nansun."

While speaking, he carried the things and was about to enter the room.

"I'll do it, let's go downstairs and talk." Zhu Suosuo, with a drooping face, blocked him, reached out to take the things, turned around and put them on the dining table in a few steps, then dragged her slippers out and slammed the door shut.

"Really don't know what Suosuo is thinking." Jiang Nansun let out a long breath, put down her phone and looked at Wang Yan, who didn't even raise his head. "Brother Yan, if Suosuo follows you wholeheartedly, you won't treat her harshly, right?"

"In half a year, counting money and buying things, I spent more than a million on her, do you think I treated her harshly?"

"Oh, I didn't mean that. It's just that you spent more than 30 million on that big wave, why treat Suosuo like this?"

"I think I've made it very clear; what cause you plant, what fruit you bear, it's all her own choice. I have never asked her to be wholehearted to me, nor have I thought about this problem." Wang Yan frowned and looked at Jiang Nansun. "Then how much money do you think is appropriate for me to give her? And how much money should I give you?"

"Consider I didn't say it, alright. It's my fault, I shouldn't have talked too much." Knowing Wang Yan was unhappy, Jiang Nansun admitted her mistake decisively and hurriedly got up to pull Wang Yan. "Let's not wait for Suosuo, let's eat first."

Whether Wang Yan was happy or unhappy naturally wouldn't be seen by people, it was just that he showed some. It was mainly his attitude toward women, which was more suitable for women like the big wave who knew their own numbers. For those like Jiang Nansun who didn't have numbers and dared to make decisions for him, he had to show some emotions appropriately to let her wake up.

Although she had already eaten in the morning, Xie Hongzu really bought a lot, more than four people's portions. To avoid waste, Wang Yan sat by the dining table and ate slowly with Jiang Nansun, chatting meaninglessly.

After a while, Zhu Suosuo came back, and her eyes were red.

Seeing Wang Yan and Jiang Nansun both looking at her, Zhu Suosuo drank a sip of water, blew her nose with a tissue, and then walked over and sat down beside Jiang Nansun. "Made it clear, he won't come again in the future."

"How did you say it? I see he doesn't look like someone who will give up easily, so you made it clear in such a short time?" Jiang Nansun didn't understand, because as far as she knew, it wasn't that Zhu Suosuo hadn't said some harsh words to Xie Hongzu before, and Xie Hongzu still came back time and time again.

"I said as long as he gives me 30 million, counted as pre-marital property, without those messy agreements and contracts, I can marry him. Of course, he also said he wanted to give me this money, but he didn't have it. Later he said I wasn't such a materialistic woman, and said 30 million wasn't realistic, and his mother wouldn't agree. He also asked if I liked Ye Jingyan and said I had an Oedipus complex..." Zhu Suosuo smiled. "I just bit on the 30 million and didn't let go, and told him some of the analysis I had with Nansun before, and he couldn't stand it, and then he left."

Wang Yan smiled and said nothing. Just like what he thought before, Zhu Suosuo didn't accept it. And looking at this appearance now, she also thoroughly didn't want to continue hanging Xie Hongzu. The reason was also very simple; now that he was here, Zhu Suosuo didn't need to suffer grievances with Xie Hongzu.

Jiang Nansun looked at Wang Yan and sighed. "Eat."

"Don't look at me, just say it if you have something to say." Wang Yan shook his head. "Isn't it just wanting to talk about Ye Jingyan? I'm not blind; you didn't even work in sales for two months before you were transferred to be Fan Jingang's assistant, and you didn't even work with Fan Jingang for three months before you became Ye Jingyan's assistant. He treated you too well, so you were thinking if Ye Jingyan had ideas about you, right? Although he doesn't have billions in family background now, he still has billions; he has no children, no wife, so what's the use of so much money? Do you think that would be your chance? Do you think he could give you 30 million?"

Although Zhu Suosuo didn't speak, the surprise in her eyes couldn't be hidden.

"You know it all?" Jiang Nansun couldn't help but stare wide-eyed. "Yesterday we were still talking about figuring out why Ye Jingyan treated Suosuo so well."

Wang Yan picked up his phone, rummaged for a while, and put it in front of Zhu Suosuo. "Look, what you want to know is all here."

Zhu Suosuo picked up the phone and looked at a document on it; Jiang Nansun took a look and asked strangely, "Brother Yan, how do you have Ye Jingyan's identity information?"

"There are no secrets in this world; as long as you want to know, there is always a way." Wang Yan said. "Didn't I make a fortune from the Jingyan Group because of Yang Ke's departure before? It's said that you must know yourself and the enemy to win every battle. Not only Ye Jingyan's, but other real estate company bosses, senior executives, including Yang Ke's information are all there. Some are public information, and some are relatively hidden, but they are quite complete."

At this time, Zhu Suosuo had already seen Ye Jingyan's daughter there; she saw the date of birth on it, and then associated it with Ye Jingyan's appearance at the beginning, so how could she not understand what was going on.

She looked up at Wang Yan. "So it's just because I was born on the same year, month, and day as his daughter?"

"What do you think?" Wang Yan ate his meal in big mouthfuls. "He feels guilty for his daughter, but the dead can't come back to life. You accidentally entered his company and happened to have the same date of birth as his daughter; he compensated for some of his missing and guilt for his daughter on you, isn't that quite good? And besides some gossip hurting his reputation, he didn't pay anything. Of course, he did treat you quite well; I guess if you work for a few more months, he should send you to the grassroots; he is indeed cultivating you with heart. When you reach his level, doing things is actually very much about fate; you have good luck."

Zhu Suosuo didn't speak, Jiang Nansun took the phone and looked at it, and didn't say anything more, and the three of them finished lunch just like that.

Perhaps Zhu Suosuo's mood wasn't quite right, but Wang Yan didn't indulge her; things that should be done must be done. Of course, Zhu Suosuo was also quite active; ever since she followed Wang Yan, her way of venting emotions was to work hard, galloping on horseback...

But this matter didn't just pass; although Zhu Suosuo knew it might be true, she still asked Ye Jingyan face to face when she went to work the next day.

"Ye Zong, there is a question I haven't understood." Early in the morning, just as Ye Jingyan came in and sat down, Zhu Suosuo walked to Ye Jingyan's desk and asked.

Ye Jingyan pushed his glasses and looked at Zhu Suosuo, who was tearful and insisting on looking at him, with a smile. "What don't you understand? Just ask."

"Why are you so good to me?"

"Treating you well, isn't it good? What kind of question is this?"

Zhu Suosuo took a deep breath and said directly, "Do you like me? I mean the kind of liking between men and women."

Ye Jingyan didn't rush to answer, just looked at Zhu Suosuo, who was tearful and insisting on looking at him, and after a while, slowly opened his mouth. "I like you, but not the kind of liking between men and women. I had a daughter before, she was as old as you... are you not planning to work here anymore?"

Some words, once said, couldn't be treated as if they hadn't happened. Although the conversation was short, it had reached this point; meeting was always awkward, not to mention working together.

He didn't ask Zhu Suosuo why she suddenly asked this; he was also a person who had rolled for many years, and he had long seen what Zhu Suosuo, such a little girl who had followed him for so long, was like. She had revealed her intentions in this regard before, and he knew Zhu Suosuo's thoughts. Young people always had no patience and always wanted a definite answer; he had thought of this day long ago.

Zhu Suosuo also understood this truth, but she wouldn't give up until she heard it thoroughly. Her tears had already flowed down; she took off the work badge on her neck and placed it on the desk. "Thank you for your care, Ye Zong, it was my wishful thinking, I'm sorry."

"There's nothing to be sorry about; it's that I didn't handle the relationship well, which caused you to misunderstand." Ye Jingyan sighed, but shook his head with a smile. "What are your plans for the next step? If you don't work here, you must have a place to go, right?"

"Don't know yet, I want to rest for a while, and then find a job later."

"Okay, you make your own decisions, as long as you know what you are doing. If you have any problems you can't solve in the future, you can call me at any time, including economic problems, you can also find me, it's all no problem. Don't be embarrassed to open your mouth, if it really doesn't work, you can also contact Fan Mi."

"Ye Zong, thank you."

Ye Jingyan nodded with a smile. "Go."

Zhu Suosuo smiled, turned and went to her workstation, took her small bag, and walked out. Outside, Fan Jingang was working diligently and didn't notice the movement inside.

"Thank you, Fan Mi, take care of yourself in the future, I'm leaving." Zhu Suosuo pulled the confused Fan Jingang up, hugged him, and while Fan Jingang was still confused, turned and left.

"Hey, don't go, what exactly is going on?" When Fan Jingang reacted, Zhu Suosuo had already disappeared. He hurriedly turned and entered the office. "Ye Zong, what's going on? Why did Zhu Suosuo leave just like that?"

Ye Jingyan shook his head. "Nothing, it's her own choice, help her if you can in the future, go to work."

Fan Jingang had been with Ye Jingyan for a long time, and he was also an old hand in the world; he knew Ye Jingyan's affairs and saw Zhu Suosuo's thoughts. Seeing Ye Jingyan's appearance, he sighed. "What kind of thing is this..."

Watching Fan Jingang turn and leave, and close the door, Ye Jingyan was silent for a long time, and then laughed abruptly. "What kind of thing is this..."

Accompanied by a long sigh, Ye Jingyan began a day's work...

"Okay, I know, thank you Fan Mi, hmm, hung up." Zhu Suosuo walked slowly on the road and hung up Fan Jingang's phone.

She stood by the roadside, took out her phone and opened the camera, aiming it at her face to confirm that her makeup hadn't been affected by the crying just now. She also used her phone to edit a message and sent it out, then took a deep breath as she looked at the patch of sky between the high-rise buildings.

She started to smile, smiling very relaxedly. She had finally made a choice, finally made a clean break.

What better choice could there be than what she already had now? And what did she need so much money for? It was useless, all useless. She also had nothing she couldn't do; she had viewed herself too highly. If she had had this kind of spirit earlier, perhaps her life wouldn't be what it was now.

She walked with light steps, her high heels clicking on the ground, confident and poised. Just like that, after walking for more than ten minutes, she arrived at Tomson Riviera. She knew Wang Yan was at home because he had just dropped her off at work this morning. She had also just sent a message to ask and received a reply.

Familiar with the route, she went upstairs, entered the password to open the smart lock, and pulled open the somewhat heavy door.

Wang Yan, who was drinking tea in the living room, was somewhat confused: "Aren't you at work?"

Zhu Suosuo changed into slippers at the entrance and trotted over to hug him: "From now on, I'm with you. I don't want to think about those messy things anymore."

When she said this, Wang Yan immediately realized what was going on and shook his head with a chuckle: "I won't give you thirty million."

"No, it's very good as it is now. I've already thought it through, Brother Yan, before..."

Wang Yan smiled as he listened to Zhu Suosuo tell the story from beginning to end, as well as her inner journey; it could be considered her self-awakening. The most precious quality a person can have is self-awareness, and now Zhu Suosuo had it.

Since they met until now, having slept together for several months, this was the only thing Zhu Suosuo had done that Wang Yan considered quite good.

Of course, Zhu Suosuo actually shouldn't have gone to ask Ye Ye Jin Yan. At the very least, with such a relationship, as long as she worked hard, she could completely become a career woman and achieve financial freedom under Ye Ye Jin Yan's care. It was just that she was still young and cared more about the answer, which was also understandable.

Zhu Suosuo wrapped her arms around Wang Yan's neck, her eyes charming like silk, her red lips slightly parted, breathing like an orchid: "Brother Yan, love me..."
