Chapter 1634: Separating the Two Again

Feisu Chinese.

The couple had been married for many years, and Shi Youxuan rarely saw her husband like this.

She pushed open the door to the Study, urging her husband not to be so angry, as it would ruin his health, and that being angry was useless; he should instead think about how to handle this matter.

"How to resolve it? By forbidding the two of them from seeing each other ever again."

Shi Youxuan said: "What you're saying isn't very realistic; how can they not see each other? They aren't going to listen to you now; they are close at hand, while we are far away."

Sheng Hanyu was unconvinced: "He is my son; if I can't control others, can I not even control my own son?"

He was decisive and acted on his words, sending four bodyguards that very day to follow Sheng Zirui twenty-four hours a day.

Zirui was a university student; what kind of situation was it to have bodyguards with him when he went to class, to the Library, to the Cafeteria, or back to his dormitory?

Zirui naturally wouldn't stand for it; he tried to drive the bodyguards away, but he couldn't get rid of them.

The bodyguards said: "Third Young Master, we are following the Chairman's orders. You should talk to the Chairman; as long as he gives the order, we will go back."

Sheng Zirui:...

So he called to protest.

As a result, he was lectured for a while.

Being lectured was expected, but after the lecture, the protest had no effect.

His parents firmly opposed him associating with Qi Shishi; even being ordinary friends was not allowed.

His mother said: "Stop using official rhetoric to fool us. 'Ordinary friends'? Do you even believe that yourself?"

Sheng Zirui:...

That was right; he didn't believe it himself either.

How could two people who liked each other possibly get along as ordinary friends?

Zirui's freedom was restricted, and the two could only chat on software.

Zirui said: "I believe the incident on the internet had nothing to do with you; it's my parents who are too autocratic."

Qi Shishi said: "It doesn't matter. From childhood to now, I've suffered so many grievances I can't even count them myself; this little matter is nothing at all."

"It was our family that owed yours in the first place; I'll just consider it paying off the debt for them."

The more reasonable she was, the more Zirui felt his parents were being unreasonable.

Wang Qing had been dumped, and she was depressed and unhappy every day, unable to muster any spirit for anything.

Especially when watching Sheng Zihan and Tian Yuanyuan get back together, seeing the two of them acting like a couple in front of her, her heart felt as painful as if it had been stabbed by a knife.

The mistress didn't get a good ending, and many people clapped and cheered; Wang Qing was pointed at wherever she went.

She lost weight rapidly, but she didn't receive even a tiny bit of pity from Sheng Zihan; he now felt that even looking at her was superfluous, let alone caring whether she felt good or not.

Her ex-boyfriend didn't feel sorry for her, but her uncle Huo Zhenteng did.

Huo Zhenteng said to her: "There are plenty of good boys. If he dares to make my niece unhappy, I will make him unhappy."

Wang Qing, who had just been crying, immediately stopped, asking nervously: "Uncle, what are you going to do? You cannot lay a hand on him. If Zihan gets hurt anywhere, I will hurt myself in the exact same way!"

Huo Zhenteng:...

His niece's gaze was firm; she wasn't scaring him, she would do what she said.

He hated that she wouldn't live up to his expectations: "You silly girl, he has already abandoned you, and you are still thinking about him. Are you brainless?"

"This is my business; you don't need to worry about it."

He really didn't know what was so good about that kid; he didn't have the capability of his older brother, and his brain wasn't very sharp either.

He was just glib and good-looking, yet he had coaxed his niece into being devoted to him.

After Tian Yuanyuan and Zihan got back together, she quickly regained her spirit, and she had even gained quite a bit of weight.

Zirui advised her: "Don't be so devoted to my younger brother. Even though he has reconciled with you, who knows when he might abandon you again!"

Such words were unpleasant to hear, but they were the truth; Sheng Zihan was capable of doing that, and Tian Yuanyuan knew it in her heart.

She sighed and said: "Thank you for telling me all this. Actually, how could I not know what you're saying? But I just can't bring myself to leave him. Am I very pathetic? Go ahead and laugh at me."

Zirui didn't answer.

He thought to himself, what was there to laugh at?

When talking about others, one has a whole set of principles, but when it comes to oneself, isn't one also unable to find a way out?

The image of Qi Shishi would always appear in his mind; the more they forbade him from seeing her and the more strictly they restricted him, the stronger his longing became.

They were just a few bodyguards; it wasn't difficult to get rid of them.

Zirui reported to the school that there were "unidentified" people in the school who were constantly following him.

The school Security Guard quickly stopped the bodyguards and said: "You can't do this; it is affecting the normal teaching order of our school."

"You must leave, now, immediately, at once!"

Although the Security Guard was no match for them, this was their territory; since the Security Guard stepped forward to drive them away, they had to go.

These people went back, but soon, Sheng Hanyu sent another batch of people over.

This batch changed their tactics; they wouldn't follow Zirui at all times.

But every time he was about to meet Qi Shishi, they would appear in front of the two of them right on time, preventing them from meeting—every single time!

Zirui and Qi Shishi's situation became known to Zihan, and he felt very guilty.

So he confessed to his parents.

He told his parents that Wang Qing was Huo Zhenteng's niece and that all the trouble was caused by him, having nothing to do with Qi Shishi, and he hoped his parents would not oppose Zirui and Shishi associating with each other!

He had good intentions, but it was useless.

His parents told him to manage himself and stop meddling in other people's business!

If such a thing happened again, they would make his promise at the press conference a reality—and kick him out of the Sheng Family!

The information Zihan revealed is still useful.

Since this matter is related to Huo Zhenteng, there is now an important lead.

Just follow this vine of Huo Zhenteng and keep digging down.

He cannot be the mastermind; he does not have that capability.

Although this person is sinister and cunning, he is just a cook; all the data indicates that Huo Zhenteng knows nothing about stocks and could not have orchestrated this kind of thing.

There must be someone behind him, and a very formidable figure at that!

Whether this figure is related to Qi Shishi is hard to say for now.

The timing of her appearance is too sensitive, and there is a blank period in her experience while in Country A.

In other words—it cannot be investigated.

Things that even Sheng Hanyu cannot investigate are certainly not simple.

She is clearly just a young girl, yet she is so complex that even Sheng Hanyu cannot see through her; such a person appearing by his son's side will sooner or later be a hidden danger.

It does not matter if Zirui does not understand; he is still young, and he will eventually understand later.

That muddlehead Zihan, instead of trying to persuade him, actually turned around and urged them not to interfere with Zirui's freedom to love?

It is truly infuriating.

……

Huo Zhenteng discovered that someone was investigating him.

He was extremely vigilant and realized he had been exposed.

He was somewhat afraid, and there was no way not to be afraid; he hadn't even gained an advantage when dealing with Sheng Zichen's snack bar, and now, having to go against the entire Sheng Family is not something he alone can bear.

Although that person said not to go looking for him unless necessary, he went anyway.
