Chapter 196: I Want Your Assets and Your Man

~9 min read 1,646 words

Jian Yining certainly couldn't give her an answer either. He suggested: "Yingzi, don't worry about whatever madness he's up to. You aren't safe here anyway; let's just go abroad."

"Okay."

Shi Youxuan agreed, and Jian Yining was overjoyed.

That was great; Yingzi had agreed to go with him.

Having Sheng Hanyu in Jiangzhou was always like having a landmine that could explode at any moment, but it would be different if Shi Youxuan agreed to go abroad with him.

Once they were abroad in a new environment, her mood would naturally change as well.

Yingzi was currently pregnant, which was the time she needed care the most. Jian Yining believed that his sincerity would eventually move her; once they were abroad, Yingzi would slowly forget Sheng Hanyu and fall in love with him.

……

The Jian Family.

Lady Jian saw Sheng Hanyu's car parked at the entrance and hurriedly called out to her daughter: "Yixin, Hanyu is here, come downstairs quickly."

Jian Yixin heard her mother's call from upstairs and also assumed Sheng Hanyu had come to see her, feeling delighted inside.

"Don't shout so loudly, what would it look like if people heard?" she chided while walking downstairs.

Her mother hurriedly apologized: "I'm sorry, I was just too impatient and didn't think it through. Yixin, don't be angry with Mom, I'll be careful next time."

Ever since her daughter returned, Lady Jian had been walking on eggshells around her, granting all her requests and resolving any dissatisfactions immediately.

Basically, it could be said that if she asked for the stars, she wouldn't be given the moon, but she was treated much better than her brother.

She had already lost her daughter once; she could not lose her a second time!

While they were speaking, Sheng Hanyu had already entered from outside.

"Hanyu, are you here to see me?" Jian Yixin walked up to him, smiling.

"No, is your brother home?"

Jian Yixin's smile froze on her face, but only for an instant.

In a moment, she returned to her usual self: "He isn't home. I don't know what he's been busy with lately; he's always running out."

Jian Yixin was lying. In fact, half a month ago, Jian Yining had broken ties with the family.

She had sent people to follow Jian Yining, wanting to know Shi Youxuan's whereabouts, but Jian Yining discovered it and flew into a rage at her!

She could hide her intentions from Sheng Hanyu, but she couldn't hide them from her brother.

Her brother called her shameless, a white lotus, and a green tea bitch.

He accused her of using underhanded tactics to break up Sheng Hanyu and Shi Youxuan, and even causing her to miscarry...

Before Jian Yixin could react, Lady Jian slapped her son twice. She defended her daughter, saying that all of this originally belonged to Jian Yixin, and that it was Shi Youxuan who had usurped her place.

And that nothing her daughter did was excessive; she was merely taking back what belonged to her in the first place.

Her son was siding with outsiders by treating his sister this way, and he had been blinded and bewitched by Shi Youxuan.

She would never let a divorced woman enter the Jian Family's door, and she told her son to give up on his feelings for Shi Youxuan; she would rather die than agree to them being together.

Jian Fu, who had always remained neutral, stood on the same side as his wife on this issue, so Jian Yining slammed the door and left, and hadn't been home for half a month.

Hearing that Jian Yining wasn't there, Sheng Hanyu turned to leave.

Jian Yixin said from behind: "Hanyu, is it convenient to tell me what you need A Ning for? I'll pass it on when he gets back." She was very clever and wouldn't show her dissatisfaction, always making the other person feel her thoughtfulness.

Sheng Hanyu turned around and gave her an apologetic smile: "It's nothing urgent. Just have him call me when he returns."

"Mm."

Although Jian Yixin was disappointed inside, she didn't show anything on her face.

She said considerately: "It's already noon, don't go yet. I'll cook two dishes you like. You've lost weight again in just these few days..." She reached out to stroke his cheek.

In the past, such gestures were perfectly normal between them, but Sheng Hanyu dodged it without a trace: "No need, I have urgent matters to attend to. Another day, let's eat together another day."

Having said that, he didn't wait for Jian Yixin to agree and hurried out the door, as if he would be caught by her if he left a second late.

She watched the car drive away, until the silhouette of the car was no longer visible.

Her soft and tranquil expression gradually twisted, and a fierce look flashed across her face!

Jian Yixin muttered to herself: "Shi Youxuan, you just wait. I definitely won't let you have an easy time."

This month, she didn't know how many times she had invited Sheng Hanyu to eat, watch movies, or go to places they used to frequent... but he had refused every time.

Her expression and what she said were caught by her mother, and Lady Jian shivered at her daughter's cold tone.

"Yixin, are you alright?"

She ignored her, changed her Spring Shoes, and prepared to go out.

"Yixin, where are you going?"

"Stop nagging, I'm not a prisoner, don't watch me." Her tone was unkind, so her mother didn't dare to ask any further.

Jian Yixin got in the car and opened the GPS; the routes Sheng Hanyu had taken over the past few days were all right before her eyes.

The icon showed that he was currently at Tianma Group.

He really was going to find that bitch. He wouldn't even have lunch with her, just to go find that bitch?

Jian Yixin had secretly installed a GPS system on Sheng Hanyu's phone; she knew all his movements, where he went, like the back of her hand.

This month, although he was lukewarm toward her, he hadn't gone to find Shi Youxuan, so Jian Yixin had just waited quietly.

Originally, she thought Sheng Hanyu felt guilty toward Shi Youxuan, and once that guilt faded after a while, he would naturally come to her to reconcile and rekindle their old flame.

As it turned out, after a month, he hadn't come to her but had started searching for Shi Youxuan like a madman?

All kinds of missing person notices were plastered everywhere, all looking for that bitch.

"Shi Youxuan, I won't let you have your way."

She turned the steering wheel and drove straight toward Lishui Residential Quarter.

……

Tianma Group.

The entire office building was a scene of busyness, yet it was busy without being chaotic.

The company had suddenly announced a total relocation, and those holding important positions who were willing to continue their employment abroad were busy these past two days handling passports and visas.

Ordinary employees and those with families and children who could not go abroad were at the Human Resources Department processing their resignations!

The company had prepared very generous severance packages for every departing employee, and their personnel files all contained excellent evaluations.

After leaving the company, finding a good job would be no problem at all; of course, even if they did not want to find work, they could start their own businesses, as such a generous severance package was unique in Jiangzhou.

Tianma's sudden announcement that it was leaving Jiangzhou was just as sudden as its appearance in Jiangzhou, with no warning whatsoever.

Those who had already finished their paperwork or obtained their passports were handling the group's final affairs.

Tianma was relocating, not going bankrupt.

Many partnerships could still continue, with only all collaborations with Dingsheng announced as terminated!

Therefore, when Sheng Hanyu appeared at the front desk, the receptionist was not surprised: "Hello, Chairman Sheng, our Li Zong is waiting for you in his office."

Li Zong was the professional manager hired by Shi Youxuan; when she and Jian Yining were both away, Li Zong handled all company affairs with full authority.

"I'm not looking for him; where is Jian Yining?"

The receptionist said, "Jian Zong is not here; if you have an urgent matter, please call him."

If Jian Yining's phone could get through, he would have called long ago; did he really need a reminder from the young lady at the front desk?

"Lend me your phone," he said.

The receptionist assumed his mobile phone was out of power and hurriedly handed over the landline; Sheng Hanyu used the Tianma Group landline to dial Jian Yining, and it was answered quickly: "What is it?"

"Where is Xuanxuan?"

"Beep, beep, beep—"

He only asked one question, and Jian Yining hung up the phone.

Sheng Hanyu said to the receptionist, "I don't care what method you use, contact your Chairman or Jian Zong as soon as possible and tell them I want to meet with them—either one will do—but I will not talk to anyone else except the two of them."

After speaking, he went to the sofa in the company's reception area and sat down, waiting with calm composure.

Jian Yining received a WeChat message sent by his Secretary and wore a troubled expression.

Shi Youxuan said, "Sheng Hanyu wants to see you, right?"

"Yes."

"Then you go; it is better for you to go than for me to go."

Jian Yining understood the meaning behind her words.

It wasn't that Sheng Hanyu truly wanted to see him; he just wanted to find Shi Youxuan through him. But he knew that if he directly asked to see Shi Youxuan, there would be no chance, so he was using a buffer, preparing to open a breach starting from Jian Yining.
