Chapter 14: Disturbing Each Other Not

Sheng Hanyu's seaside Villa.

Shi Youxuan was sent back by bodyguards; after getting out of the car and entering the house, she locked herself in her room, unhappy!

Everything that happened today was inexplicable, infuriating, and frustrating; nothing went the way she wanted.

Originally, she thought she had already drawn a clear line with the Shi Family, but when Shi Yucheng was in trouble because of her, she still went back.

Shi Youxuan had never met her biological parents; from childhood to adulthood, Shi Yucheng was the only elder who had given her warmth, and she could not bear to watch him suffer and remain indifferent.

Going back only brought her a bellyful of anger, and she was even "escorted" back by bodyguards, kept under even stricter watch.

But fortunately, although she was still in the Sheng Family, the freedom she had always longed for had been realized.

From that day on, Sheng Hanyu seemed very busy; he lived outside and only returned occasionally.

Even when he did return, he stayed in the Study, busy with who knows what; he never came to disturb her, nor did he ask where she had gone halfway through that day!

He knew everything that had happened at the Shi Family that day; Sheng Hanyu did not make things difficult for Shi Youxuan, only telling the housekeeper to take good care of her and not to mistreat her.

She had no dowry when she came from the Shi Family, so Sheng Hanyu had the housekeeper buy many clothes and jewelry for her; since he could not give her love, he would compensate her with material things.

Poor thing; if the Shi Family could not accommodate her, he could afford to support her for a lifetime.

In the future, he would acknowledge Shi Youxuan as his younger sister and could protect her from being bullied by others for a lifetime!

Shi Youxuan only knew that Sheng Hanyu was very busy, but what she did not know was that the place Sheng Hanyu went to was his own Apartment.

The place she called a "pure land" had already been occupied by the "enemy forces."

Sheng Hanyu handed over all company matters to his third younger brother and Yun Zhehao; Sheng Hanyu bribed the property management to enter the Apartment, basically guarding Yixin's home every day, waiting for Yixin to appear like someone waiting by a tree stump for a hare.

The Apartment was very high-end, not too big, about one hundred square meters.

The decoration style was minimalist; the color scheme in the room was nothing but black and white, including the clothes in the wardrobe.

Apart from a few simple sets of clothes in the wardrobe, the remaining daily necessities were pitifully few, and the house was cold everywhere, clearly not lived in for long.

The property management staff also confirmed this point; the owner of the house did not come more than a few times a year, and every time she came, she was wrapped up tightly, basically making it impossible to see her face.

Later, he discovered a thin Human Skin Mask in a drawer!

Now Sheng Hanyu was one hundred percent convinced that Yixin was indeed, as his third younger brother had said, disfigured and therefore did not want to see him.

There was a computer in the room; when opened, the desktop was clean without a single icon, and on the huge screen, only a brown teddy bear doll occupied the entire display.

Sheng Hanyu realized that this desktop was exactly the same as Shi Youxuan's Zai Zai.

He did not think deeply about why there would be a teddy bear doll on Yixin's computer.

Girls probably all liked these things; Yixin used to like them too, and there were several dolls and stuffed toys at home.

For some reason, in Yixin's house, he could always sense Shi Youxuan's presence, and he would inadvertently think of her!

Every time he had this thought, he felt deep guilt, feeling that he had let Yixin down, but he could never stop himself from thinking it.

……

Shi Youxuan was very free in the Villa.

The housekeeper would call her for meals on time three times a day; for the rest of the time, she could do whatever she wanted, go to whichever room she pleased, and no one would disturb her wherever she hid.

She was finally free, living the life she had initially envisioned, but for some reason, Shi Youxuan felt empty inside and often felt quite uncomfortable.

But there were more times when she felt comfortable, such as having more time to chat with Jian Yining, and without worrying about being interrupted at any moment.

The matter that made her suddenly leave the Ginza Building two days ago had already been explained clearly.

Jian Yining said that the boss of Dingsheng was an old acquaintance of his and had a deep connection with Yixin; if she went to negotiate, her identity would definitely be exposed. This was something he had only just learned, otherwise, he would never have let her take the risk.

Shi Youxuan was not a petty person; she would not harp on a single matter endlessly, and she was very good at respecting the other party's privacy.

Since Jian Yining was unwilling to talk more about Yixin's affairs, she did not ask further.

Jian Yining told her that he was about to return to the country to personally complete the negotiations with Dingsheng Group!

He even jokingly asked where she was in the country; since the two of them had been collaborating for so many years, it wouldn't be too much to meet up for a meal and get to know each other, right?

Of course it wasn't too much.

For so many years, Shi Youxuan had always known Jian Yining's identity, but Jian Yining did not know who she was; this was unfair.

Okay.

Shi Youxuan typed these two words and sent them, and by the way, she also sent her location.

Jian Yining's avatar went dark; there was not a single word.

？？？？？？

Shi Youxuan typed a bunch of question marks.

But after waiting for a long while, there was still no response.

"What the hell? When you didn't tell me, you were always beating around the bush asking, and now that I've told you, this is the attitude?" Shi Youxuan muttered to herself, unable to figure it out.
