Chapter 881

Recently Jin Chen seems to have found a job, going out for a while from time to time and returning at most half a day later.

Yishen, in order to uphold what he had previously said, did not ask about Jin Chen's whereabouts.

But today he again wishes Jin Chen were by his side, needing no advice—just that whenever he had to make important decisions, he had never had anyone accompany him.

Sometimes Yishen feels that he has no discomfort being alone and has become used to solitude, but Jin Chen suddenly burst into his life forcefully, and he began to get used to having his world.

Yishen stared blankly for a long time, only reacting after his phone screen went dark.

He looked at the empty sofa, and in the end still replied to that fan.

——"Okay, thank you very much for your help."

One hour later.

Yishen posted all the evidence given by Huacishu on Weibo and paid a fee that was not low.

To be safe, Yishen had backed up all of their transactions and Liao Ting's records.

Furthermore, he recorded it on paper and mailed it to himself via letter.

Not only were they their own records, but also his and Xuyuchuan's.

After the café last time, Yishen no longer believed this longtime good friend.

As soon as the Weibo post went up, fans from both sides immediately started arguing.

Yishen could prove that he had no contact with Kebi, and the attached evidence even included information about an account login from a different location; for Kebi, this was originally a very powerful blow.

After all, he himself knows best whether he has any relation to Yishen; it's all just Xuyuchuan's self-directed and self-performed act.

So Kebi could not produce any counterevidence and could only not respond.

He sent many messages to Xuyuchuan, hoping to get a bit more, but the other party never replied.

Thus the public opinion pressure that had originally leaned toward Yishen began to press on Kebi as well.

Kebi had nothing to say and could not struggle.

Xuyuchuan, who did not reply to him, was also under great pressure.

Despite multiple attempts not to lower Yishen's Fortune Value, Xuyuchuan's own Fortune had already suffered severe impact.

In the office, Xuyuchuan received some bad news.

Originally a sure promotion slot, but in the end a problem arose—because the Deputy Director had done a very nice project, and the person who ultimately got promoted to Headquarters Leader became him.

Seeing the reply email, Xuyuchuan violently threw the documents aside, furious to the extreme.

According to the Time Exchange's reply, isn't it just that he hasn't provided them with Fortune Value during this period? How could they take away the Fortune Value at the most crucial moment!

Another part of his resentment, Xuyuchuan blamed on Yishen.

Originally everything was fine—who let Yishen have someone constantly stirring up trouble beside him?

The phone bell rang—it was Yixi inviting him out for a dinner date.

Only then did Xuyuchuan realize that, for Yishen's sake, he had not paid attention to his boyfriend for a long time.

After thinking for a long time, Xuyuchuan still agreed.

Perhaps Yixi could also be considered a breakthrough.

At least compared to that person who came out of nowhere, Yixi and Yishen still have an indelible familial bond.

Xuyuchuan did not directly mention that person, but subtly hinted to Yixi that it was because of Yishen's curse that his path to promotion had become increasingly difficult.

Yishen's curse.

This point is a bomb for the entire Yi family; as soon as it involves this matter, they firmly believe it without doubt.

Indeed, Yixi was very angry, even feeling that Yishen and Xuyuchuan working at the same publishing house was a disaster for Xuyuchuan.

"Chuan-ge, rest assured, I will definitely help you; tomorrow I will personally go and tell Yishen."

Yixi assured him, "It won't affect your career; at worst I'll get Mother to come along too, so Yishen can never work at the publishing house again."

"Thank you, Xiao Xi."

Xuyuchuan smiled gracefully, raised his glass to signal him, and said, "Once I succeed in getting promoted, I will go and tell my uncle and aunt about getting married."

When Jin Chen came home, Yishen was still writing in the study.

As the year-end approached, the outside world remained dreary with continuous rain, yet it already carried a hint of festive spirit.

The house was empty, Yishen had made no preparations, and it remained cold and quiet.

Jin Chen shed his chilly coat, rubbed his hands, and headed for the Study, his arms full of various items.

Like documents.

Yishen heard activity outside the Study, knew it was Jin Chen returning, shut his notebook and looked up, then gaped in surprise.

You brought back… a pile of paper?

It's very useful paper.

Jin Chen remained solemn, not asking right away what had happened that afternoon, and laid all his findings before Yishen.

Dear, this is all the information I gathered; quickly take a look.

What?

Yishen let him squeeze into his soft chair, still more or less used to the warm presence beside him, and subconsciously leaned against him.

He picked up a few sheets, glanced at them, then turned his head in surprise and stared at Jin Chen.

Did you go check it out?

Everyone said it wasn't about looking for a job, right?

I went to work at a detective agency. Jin Chen shoved all the documents into Yishen's arms, like a hunter returning, excited and laden with game.

The first thing is to help Shen Shen solve the problem!

Yishen gave a wry smile as he looked at the information on the paper, his expression gradually turning grave.

In that case... it's not merely a wretched ghost puppet; the one controlling the account behind it is someone else.

Maybe it's that annoying ghost in the big coat.

Jin Chen still has a strong opinion about Xuyuchuan.

He reached out to touch Yishen's waist, buried his head in her shoulder and breathed lightly; the atmosphere was warm.

"Shenshen, what are you up to at home today?"

Yishen gathered the documents, hearing that, she lowered her eyes, not hiding anything from Jin Chen, and handed over the phone.

"An online friend contacted me, saying they could help me find evidence."

"Flower-parting tree..."

Jin Chen glanced at the name, raised an eyebrow, and while taking the phone, thought.

This name is somewhat interesting.

Nothing is harder to keep in the mortal world than beauty; the lovely face parts from the mirror, the flower-parting tree.

Have to say, because of the Pervert level of the Time Exchange, nowadays besides my own wife, everyone I look at seems like those damn things.

He looked over the record; the other party's performance throughout only wanted money in exchange for evidence, and nothing else could be seen.

Yishen changed her sitting posture, habitually gazing at the tree outside the Study window, and stared blankly for a while.

Wanting to do something, yet feeling as if nothing could be done.

These days Jin Chen has been coming home later and later; although he says he's investigating his own matter, deep down he's just not happy.

Seems like something has already gone beyond his expectations.

The time they spend together at night is getting shorter and shorter; many times Yishen tries to find something to talk about.
