Hunt her

While answering the phone, Yan Xu sighed and rubbed his forehead in exasperation: "Who would dare to bully you, Young Master Shen?"

It's good enough that he doesn't bully others.

Shen Yi grumbled, "Your ex-boyfriend, Xu Jing."

Speaking of him, Yan Xu's tone became serious: "What did he do to you?"

Xu Jing is a cunning and wicked man, and she was genuinely worried that Shen Yi would be tricked by him.

Shen Yi complained: "He bragged in front of me that when you two were dating, you used to hug and kiss all the time, and that when you two were dating, I didn't even know where I was."

"And he even threatened to take you away from me, wife... he's just trying to make me angry."

Yan Xu took a deep breath: "He's talking nonsense. We've only been dating for less than two months, we haven't even held hands, let alone done anything intimate. Leave this to me, you focus on your work, understand?"

"Mm," Shen Yi said in a teasy tone, "I understand."

After hanging up the phone, he hummed a song as he put it down: "Trying to steal my woman? In your next life."

the other side.

Half an hour later.

Yan Xu hailed a taxi and immediately arrived at Xu Jing's company building: "Come down, I'm at the coffee shop downstairs."

Xu Jing was overjoyed; this was the first time she had contacted him since their breakup.

Xu Jing: "Okay, right away."

But when he saw her, he realized that she had come to question him because of Shen Yi.

Yan Xu crossed his legs, arms crossed, and asked with a stern face, "You met with Shen Yi alone?"

Xu Jing gritted her teeth: "Yeah, you met with me just for him? We had feelings for each other before, didn't we?"

Yan Xu sneered: "Feelings? Sorry, I have none for you, never have, and never will. You know perfectly well why I agreed to be with you."

A person who lacked love since childhood will find it difficult to rationally refuse when someone offers her love.

But this isn't love; it's just a desire to fill the void of love I lacked growing up.

Xu Jing feigned ignorance: "I don't know. What's so great about Shen Yi? Could he have pursued you for two years like I did?"

He truly dedicated two years of his life to her, giving her his time and energy, and even though he gave her money, she didn't accept it.

"First of all, don't use your two years to blackmail me or the people around me." Yan Xu told him bluntly, "I didn't ask you to pursue me, nor did I give you any signals that I would be with you, so stop pursuing me with your worthless and unimportant pursuit."

He always used the fact that he had been pursuing her for two years to create the image of a good man, as if only in this way could he be admired by others.

Everyone sighed, "A man as good as Xu Jing is rare these days; Yan Xu was blind and didn't know how to cherish him."

But ask yourself, if a man truly loves a woman, would he stick to her like a leech for two years?

will not.

He will only approach her within boundaries, without disturbing her life; this is a respectful pursuit.

And Xu Jing...

It's just self-pity stemming from histrionic personality disorder.

Yan Xu: "Don't go looking for Shen Yi anymore. He's not someone you can afford to mess with, and I'm not someone you can just chase after."

She used to agree to his requests because she lacked love, but Yan Xu wouldn't now.

Because Shen Yi had already given her everything she wanted, and never asked for anything in return.

Yan Xu left the coffee shop and paid for the coffee herself, not wanting to owe him anything, nor wanting him to owe her anything.

Xu Jing is a man who climbed up from the bottom. In his worldview, there is nothing he cannot seize, including feelings.

The world is a dog-eat-dog world, and so are the relationships between men and women.

He sat in his seat, muttering to himself, "If I were a scion of a prominent family like him, would you still treat me like this?"

He will not reflect on his own behavior, but will only question Yan Xu's motives for choosing Shen Yi.

However, what Yan Xu didn't know was that Xu Jing was also responsible for the problems at Shenyi Technology.

Shen Yi kept it from her because he didn't want her to feel guilty, to feel like she was dragging him down and causing him trouble.

Loving someone means wanting them to have a better life, not making them something to brag about.

On her way home, Yan Xu had just reached the entrance of the residential area when she saw Yan Yan standing there waiting for her.

Yan Xu pretended not to see Yan Yan and walked past her.

The saying goes, "No one visits the temple without a reason." It must mean that Yan Yan's public image is in jeopardy, and her older sister needs to step in.

Yan Yan grabbed her hand, but Yan Xu instinctively shook it off: "Get to the point."

Yan Yan paused for two seconds, unsure whether she was finding it difficult to speak or simply didn't want to back down in front of her.

The two remained locked in a stalemate for a long time before Yan Xu said coldly, "If you want to stand, then stand. Don't drag me down with you."

After saying that, Yan Xu turned and left.

Yan Yan grabbed her hand again, but this time she let go of Yan Xu's hand herself: "I need your help with something, to record a program, is that okay? It won't take too much time."

"Ha—" Yan Xu found it laughable. "When you wanted to kill me before, why didn't you ever think about needing my help one day? Now that you think your older sister is still somewhat useful, you suddenly have a change of heart and come to me. You think too highly of me."

Yan Xu walked into the residential area without looking back.

Yan Yan stood there, stunned: "But you're the only one who can help me, sister..."

Her eyes were almost filled with tears. If netizens hadn't questioned whether her sisterly affection was genuine, she wouldn't have gone to such lengths to humbly ask Yan Xu for help.

She still hasn't figured out who spread rumors online about her bad relationship with Yan Xu, and they even made up some details, as if they knew a lot about her family's life.

Yan Xu returned home, seething with anger.

Shen Yi noticed that she was in a low mood and asked her what was wrong.

Yan Xu sighed: "Yan Yan just asked me to accompany her to record a program. She just wanted to show that I, as her older sister, am very good to her, and that our sisterly relationship is stronger than gold."

"But how can she come to me without any burden?"

How can a person ignore their own past misdeeds and calmly seek help from victims?

Yan Yan's first words made her feel nauseous.

It even reminded Yan Xu of the grievances he suffered in the Yan family in the past.

Before she knew it, her eyes were red with anger.

Shen Yi hugged her tenderly and patted her head to comfort her; "It's okay, if you don't want to go, you don't have to. She made a mess of her own business, so she has to deal with it herself. It has nothing to do with you."

However, Yan Yan did not think she had done anything wrong.

She would only blame Yan Xu for being heartless, for not even helping his younger sister.

Ten minutes or so passed.

Yan Xu received a call from Yan Shan.

She stared at her phone screen, watching it vibrate incessantly. She desperately wanted to smash the phone and give her some peace and quiet.

Shen Yi hung up the phone: "It's okay, baby."

Yan Xu was agitated, and a sense of grievance kept spreading in his heart: "But they definitely won't let me go, they will definitely try every means to make me agree."

Just like when she was a child, they would use methods like fasting and house arrest to force her to compromise.

Shen Yi looked at her firmly, cupping her face in his hands: "No, you have me now, I won't let them bully you."

Yan Xu's worries were gently and steadily received.

She nodded.
