Chapter 275: Zhu Yiwen Seems to Have Changed
"Leave L Country today, go pack up." Although Zhu Yiwen could not bear it in his heart, he still said it out loud.
Xiao Qing was nervous: "Is it me, or us?"
"You."
"I won't!"
Xiao Qing hugged Zhu Yiwen's thigh tightly, tears like beads with broken strings: "Why let me go? You like that person, don't you? That person has been harmed by you to this point, yet you still can't bear to part with him, and you want to abandon me for his sake?"
The "that person" Xiao Qing kept mentioning referred to Sheng Hanyu.
A while ago, Zhu Yiwen and Sheng Hanyu were fighting most fiercely, and the number of times he came here had clearly decreased.
Outsiders saw the two as incompatible as fire and water, but Xiao Qing interpreted it as Zhu Yiwen having a change of heart and falling for Sheng Hanyu.
The person sleeping beside you knows a lover's changes best; Zhu Yiwen was absent-minded when being intimate with him, and the frequency of mentioning Sheng Hanyu was too high... All the clues were connected by Xiao Qing, and thus, a misunderstanding was born!
Zhu Yiwen really wanted to destroy everything in front of him right now.
Including this idiot in front of him!
"So, you did this because you were jealous?" He threw the photos from the bag onto the coffee table.
He didn't know what else to say in his heart.
Xiao Qing glanced at them and frankly admitted: "That's right, I did all of these. The first two times he had good luck and escaped, but next time he won't be so lucky. Next time, I will definitely succeed!"
There is a next time?
Zhu Yiwen was almost cried to tears by his stupidity.
Sheng Hanyu was keeping Xiao Qing as his own leverage, intending to gain greater benefits, which is why he hadn't moved against him.
Otherwise, how could he still be here spouting nonsense in front of him?
He would have died more than ten times over.
This time he made up his mind; he must send Xiao Qing away. He could not let him stay here, as he would only be a drag.
"A Qing, come in." Zhu Yiwen stopped wasting words with him and shouted for people outside directly.
Xiao Qing was panicked: "What are you doing? Head of the Family, what are you calling them for? I'm not leaving. I have been with you for three years and have never done anything to wrong you. You cannot drive me away..."
A Qing brought people in and expressionlessly took the person away.
Soon, someone went upstairs, simply packed a suitcase of Xiao Qing's valuables and clothes, and then sent him out.
Although he had caused Zhu Yiwen big trouble, Zhu Yiwen did not treat him unfairly; the check he gave him had enough money for a lifetime of luxury, and he had A Qing send him out of the country.
As long as he was out, he would never be able to get back in through normal channels for the rest of his life.
Xiao Qing had been with him for three years, and he was the one he had kept by his side the longest.
He truly liked Zhu Yiwen, unlike others who liked his money more.
The two had gotten along quite well these past few years; if this kind of thing hadn't happened, they would have continued to get along, but now it wouldn't work. He dared to lay a hand on the people around him; this time it was a misunderstanding, so it was nothing, but what about next time?
What about the time after that?
He could not let such a situation happen again.
Three days later.
Sheng Hanyu arrived at Zhu Yiwen's Study on time to wait for an "explanation."
Actually, Zhu Yiwen wanted to meet outside, but Sheng Hanyu "sympathetically" said that his arm was injured, and it wouldn't be appropriate to run all the way outside.
He was in good health, had no problems at all, and it was only right to walk a few extra steps; he insisted on coming to the Zhu Zhai to talk.
Zhu Yiwen was not stupid; he knew full well that Sheng Hanyu's intentions were not about the wine.
So when Sheng Hanyu arrived, he had Shi Youxuan take the child and hide in the room, not letting him see anyone.
Sheng Hanyu was not a talkative person by nature, but his mouth basically didn't stop the whole way, asking the butler: "Where is your Madam?"
"Madam has gone out," the butler said.
And without waiting for him to continue asking, he added a bonus answer: "The young miss has also gone out. Madam took the young miss out. Where they went, I don't know. Where the master goes is not something we servants can manage."
Sheng Hanyu was not discouraged and continued: "How has Madam's mood been these past few days? Has she been prone to anger or agitation? She has had a lot of internal heat lately; you should instruct the kitchen to boil more cooling soups and drinks for her to eat... No, eating too much is too cold!"
"I brought some bird's nest; have the kitchen stew it for Madam, but don't say it was sent by me."
Of course, the butler wouldn't say it was sent by him; he wouldn't even let the kitchen stew it!
All the supplements he sent, whether they were said to be for the Head of the Family or for Madam, the Head of the Family would not let them stay and would throw them all out.
The Zhu Zhai was very large, but Sheng Hanyu felt the road was too short this time.
He hadn't even said a few words before arriving at the destination.
The butler closed the Study door from the outside, and only then did he let out a long sigh; finally, he could stop talking to this plague god.
Madam was placed under house arrest by the Head of the Family and not allowed to step out just because she had spoken a few words to him outside. If he happened to talk to him a few more times, and the Head of the Family misunderstood that he was colluding with Sheng Hanyu, this butler would have to be replaced.
The butler was overthinking; what Zhu Yiwen cared about was only that Shi Youxuan should not have contact with Sheng Hanyu. As for him... saying a few more words didn't matter.
The Study.
Zhu Yiwen pointed to the chair across from the desk: "Please sit."
Since he invited him to sit, it meant he was prepared for a long talk, right?
Sheng Hanyu sat down: "Where is the explanation you were going to give me?"
Zhu Yiwen took a file bag from the drawer, placed it on the desk, and pushed it in front of him: "Open it and see."
Sheng Hanyu opened it; inside were the equity and transfer statements for two of his companies, as well as proof of Xiao Qing's flight ticket out of the country.
"What do you mean by this?"
He threw the items onto the desk and his face turned cold.
Zhu Yiwen acted as if he didn't see his expression and said unhurriedly: "These two companies are the most profitable ones under my name. Compensating Mr. Sheng with them, you aren't losing out."
"The person who started all this has also been sent away by me. In this lifetime, he will never be able to return to L Country, nor will he be able to go to Jiangzhou. Mr. Sheng can rest easy."
Zhu Yiwen was doing it on purpose; he knew exactly what Sheng Hanyu wanted, but he was absolutely not going to grant his wish.
Sheng Hanyu pushed the items back: "I don't want these, and I won't pursue that matter any further. All my assets in L Country shall belong to you, in exchange for just one thing..."
"No." Before he could finish, he was refused.
Sheng Hanyu's expression grew even uglier: "Name whatever you want, as long as I have it."
Zhu Yiwen's expression was also very ugly: "Sheng Hanyu, don't think that just because you've made some money in L Country, you can look down on everyone. Your little bit of wealth isn't even worth looking at in my eyes. The Madam is a priceless treasure to me; I will not trade her with you for anything. I will let you watch as the Madam and I grow old together, living in mutual respect, and drive you mad."
After he finished speaking, he issued an order to leave, telling Sheng Hanyu to take the company and get out of his house.
Even if he didn't know about the previous incident, he accepted the blame; Xiao Qing was his person, and Zhu Yiwen took full responsibility!
Sheng Hanyu left Zhu Zhai, returning in low spirits.
He didn't take the things on the table, and before leaving, he threw one sentence at Zhu Yiwen: "This matter is considered settled for now; if there is a next time, I will not be polite."
In truth, he hadn't been polite this time either, it was just that what Zhu Yiwen offered wasn't what he wanted.
Companies, wealth—these were things he would earn back himself; he didn't need Zhu Yiwen to bestow them, and in any case, they would be his sooner or later.
Walking out of the mansion, he stopped in his tracks and looked back toward the fourth floor!
Shi Youxuan stood behind the window and hurriedly ducked away, her heart pounding violently, terrified of being discovered by him.
