Hunt her

"I don't know, and he doesn't need to know," the butler advised Yan Xu. "You can't be Shen Yi's good wife. If my investigation is correct, Miss Yan is the one who needs to be taken care of more."

When she had emotional problems, Shen Yi was the one who provided her with emotional support, cheered her up, and took care of her daily needs.

On the other hand, it seems that she herself did nothing.

At this moment, Yan Xu's sense of unworthiness intensified.

Shen Yi certainly deserves better; at the very least, she shouldn't be someone like her who demands emotional value.

His mother had previously introduced him to Su Xiao, who was a very good person.

It looks elegant and stands out in a crowd.

The confidence that Shen Yi had painstakingly cultivated in her was hidden away again.

Yan Xu placed the check in front of the butler and said frankly, "I don't need this. Shen Yi shouldn't be measured in money. It's an insult to me and to him."

After a few seconds of hesitation, she gritted her teeth and agreed, "I will do as you say and will not contact Shen Yi again."

The butler hesitated, realizing that the woman in front of him wasn't after the young master's money; it was Old Master Shen who had misunderstood.

But he was just a butler at the Shen residence; he wasn't qualified to interfere too much.

Yan Xu stood up and nodded slightly to indicate that he was leaving the coffee shop.

The housekeeper held the check in his hand, his heart heavy.

He had watched the eldest young master grow up, and knowing the young master's personality, he would definitely be saddened after learning about this.

The butler called Old Master Shen: "Old Master, she didn't accept the check, but promised not to contact the young master."

Grandpa Shen: "Hmm."

......

Yan Xu walked to the side of the street, feeling as if something had been drained from his body, leaving only a heavy shell.

She walked to the bus stop, sat on a seat, and stared blankly. The traffic flowed by in front of her, rushing past in a blur, but she didn't know what to do. It was as if time had stopped, and she just sat there in a daze.

"Beep—beep—"

A car horn sounded in front of us.

She was startled and her body trembled slightly. When she saw the person in the passenger seat, her mood became not only heavy but also more annoyed.

Xu Jing leaned forward and shouted to her, "Yan Xu, get in the car quickly, we can't stay here for too long."

Yan Xu ignored him.

Xu Jing: "If we don't leave now, we'll miss the bus stop!"

Yan Xu is stubborn but soft-hearted. As long as you use the excuse that she will delay others to pressure her, she will definitely agree.

As expected, Yan Xu glared at him, but still got into the car, albeit in the back seat.

Xu Jing stepped on the gas and drove off immediately.

She looked out the window with a gloomy face.

Xu Jing looked in the rearview mirror and asked her, "Did you have a fight with Shen Yi?"

Yan Xu felt even more annoyed by his voice, closed her eyes, and leaned back in her chair: "Don't talk, I don't want to hear it."

"Okay, whatever you say." Xu Jing drove aimlessly around, not knowing where she lived or wanting to drop her off.

He kept driving in circles until Yan Xu slowly spoke up: "Do you want Youyu's chip?"

"No need," Xu Jing said bluntly. "Xiao Jingxing needs Youyu Chips to control costs, but I only invest and don't do manufacturing."

Whether he was telling the truth or not, Yan Xu didn't care: "You wouldn't come here without a reason. What brings you here all of a sudden?"

It has been a short while since Xu Jing returned to her sight.

But they haven't properly discussed why he came back. Wouldn't it be better to just make money off him?

This time, Xu Jing didn't smile; his eyes were heavy, and he didn't seem to be lying: "I missed you, so I came to see you. Aren't you welcome?"

"Hmm, not welcome." Yan Xu didn't mince words. "I have nothing to do with you. We've only been together for less than a month. What's there to miss or not miss?"

Saying too much about it just feels pretentious.

It was Xu Jing who manipulated the shares in the startup company, which led to her selling the shares at a low price to save the company.

He took a bank card out of the locker and handed it to Yan Xu.

Yan Xu cautiously stepped back, not taking the card: "What do you mean? Why are you giving me the card?"

Xu Jing: "I'll compensate you for the difference based on the normal stock price at the time. The password is your birthday."

"..."

I hate people who do bad things and then try to act like good people afterward.

"Not enough!" Yan Xu argued with him logically, "Given the circumstances at the time, you should have been the one to sell the shares. You were the one who made the wrong decision back then, and I'm the one who has to bear the consequences for you. If you're going to give me a price difference, you should compensate me based on the current share price."

The current stock price is a hundred times higher than it was back then.

Yan Xu tossed the bank card onto the passenger seat: "Give it to me after you've calculated the amount."

What's rightfully hers, not a penny more, not a penny less.

Xu Jing was speechless, looking at the bank card lying alone on the passenger seat.

It was indeed he who dragged Yan Xu along to clean up his mess back then; otherwise, Yan Xu would be the current chairman of the company, not him.

Seeing that they were almost home, Yan Xu tapped on the back of his seat: "Stop the car."

Xu Jing pulled over and stopped, and he and Yan Xu unbuckled their seatbelts at the same time.

Yan Xu got out of the car and was about to walk home when Xu Jing quickly stepped forward and grabbed her wrist.

Yan Xu subconsciously shook off the grip, frowned, and patted the spot where the man had grabbed her, her expression one of rejection: "Get to the point."

Xu Jing's pride was hurt by her actions, but he still maintained a calm demeanor: "When are we going to have a meal? I'll go to the amusement park with you. We made plans to go, but we haven't had a chance yet."

Yan Xu found it funny that they were only bringing it up now, after so much time had passed.

When we first got together, I told her I'd take her to an amusement park, and she was happy for a moment, but the next day she said she had to work and couldn't go.

...If he hadn't brought it up, she would have almost forgotten about it.

Yan Xu: "No need, someone has already gone with me. That place isn't suitable for me."

Someone... without a doubt, it's Shen Yi.

Xu Jing didn't think he was wrong for breaking his promise; instead, he secretly blamed Shen Yi for taking his position.

Undeterred, he said, "How about we eat together? It's been so long since we've eaten together."

Yan Xu took a step back.

How come I never noticed how self-centered this guy was before?

She looked at her with disgust: "Which eye of yours saw that I wanted to be with you? Please stay away from me now. I don't want to see you, and I have no feelings for you."

She spoke very bluntly, leaving no room for negotiation.

Xu Jing: "Why? Is it because Shen Yi won't allow it?"
