Spring River Chasing the Moon

Chapter 141 Heart-to-heart talk

After the four people returned home, no one told their elders what had happened outside, including the driver who followed them, who was told not to report the incident.

After all, it’s the New Year, and they don’t want this matter to affect the mood of their family.

There are also people watching over at the police station, and if there is any abnormal behavior, someone will come to notify Xu Zhiye.

At dinner, several families gathered around the dining table, enjoying the rare gathering brought by the Chinese New Year.

However, Nan Qiuyue put down her chopsticks early and told Nan Youzhao and Chen Lili that she was full.

"Then go play for a while by yourself. Don't go too far after dark."

Chen Lili advised that although Nan Qiuyue was very familiar with this community, she was still worried about what might happen.

Nan Qiuyue nodded, and instead of going out, she went straight to the second-floor balcony.

When Xu Zhiye came up, he saw Nan Qiuyue lying alone in a rocking chair, looking at the sky, wondering what she was thinking about.

"What's a guy thinking here?"

Xu Zhi also sat next to Nan Qiuyue and looked up as she did.

"The moonlight is beautiful tonight."

Seeing that the person coming was Xu Zhiye, Nan Qiuyue blurted out what was in her heart.

After saying that, he subconsciously looked at Xu Zhiye and found that he had no expression.

Yes, this meme will only become popular in the future, and Xu Zhi definitely doesn’t know it at the moment.

Nan Qiuyue looked up again and looked at the starry sky.

In her previous life, it had been a long time since she looked up at the starry sky like this, not for any purpose, just purely for appreciation.

Xu Zhi also looked at the starry sky, "Are you thinking about what happened during the day?"

Nan Qiuyue was silent for a long time.

"If you don't want to tell me, I won't ask." Xu Zhi didn't want to force her to tell him.

"No, I just haven't figured out how to say it."

"Brother Zhiye, do you know why I left their family in Nancheng?"

Nan Qiuyue didn't look at Xu Zhiye, but kept looking up at the moon while speaking.

Xu Zhi also knew that Nan Qiuyue was talking about Nan Younian's family, and he nodded.

"I think so."

"I just feel that my father has suffered so much for so many years, I can't let his family go so easily."

"But what happened today has made me hesitate. If I let them stay in South City, do I really have the ability to punish them? Will the people around me get hurt again?"

When facing Xu Zhiye, Nan Qiuyue can always let down her guard 100%.

Xu Zhi also listened to her concerns and lowered his head to look at her profile.

Is this really something a six-year-old could say?

Xu Zhi also began to doubt whether he had not heard clearly just now.

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

Nan Qiuyue reacted and looked at Xu Zhiye and asked, she actually told him what was in her heart.

"Sometimes I feel that your ideas are more mature than mine."

Xu Zhi didn't intend to hide it from her and told her his true feelings.

"Brother, do you know how much has happened in this year?"

"In Haicheng, my so-called grandmother treated our family harshly. My father gave everything for that family, but never received even a hint of love in return. But he didn't complain about the fate or anyone else, nor did he harbor resentment towards the person he considered his mother. He just wanted to do better, holding on to a glimmer of hope that this would earn his mother's love, but he never achieved his goal."

"Suddenly one day, someone told us that she wasn't my grandmother at all, and that my grandparents were someone else. My father could have grown up in a happy environment and had a better life, but he didn't. Although he's back on track now, who will compensate my father for the years he lost?"

"So, why didn't that family accept any punishment and just return to Haicheng?"

Nan Qiuyue became more and more angry and excited as she spoke. She even forgot that she was supposed to explain to Xu Zhiye why she had become so mature.

"do you understand?"

Nan Qiuyue sat up and looked at Xu Zhiye.

"I know."

Xu Zhi never thought that she would live such a life in Haicheng.

Because when he met Nan Qiuyue in Haicheng, she was just a quirky little girl in his eyes. Such vibrant vitality appeared in his world. He never expected that behind such a cheerful personality, the real life would be so difficult.

"Don't worry, I will help you."

Xu Zhi also raised his hand and touched Nan Qiuyue's head.

"If you can't handle Nan Younian and his family on your own, you can come to me and I can help you."

Xu Zhi also promised.

Nan Qiuyue shook her head and rejected Xu Zhiye.

"I wanted to resolve their family's affairs myself, but after today, I've figured it out. I can't rush into anything with them. I need to wait for the right moment to eradicate them and the Haicheng family completely. Only then can we eliminate their troubles forever. It's quite interesting to torture them repeatedly. After all, there's still a long way to go."

Xu Zhi also stood on her side without reservation, which made Nan Qiuyue feel much better.

She was too lazy to think about Zhou Xining and Nan Yinbei.

"Brother, are you happy going out to play today?"

After finishing her own affairs, Nan Qiuyue wanted to show some concern for Xu Zhiye.

She knew how hard he had studied before the New Year. On the one hand, she wanted to go out and play today, and on the other hand, she wanted Xu Zhi to go out and relax as well, forget the pressure from his grandfather, and relax.

After hearing Nan Qiuyue's words, it was Xu Zhi's turn to remain silent.

"Do you feel tired?"

"If you're really tired, you have to learn to stop and take a good rest. It's a good balance between work and rest, okay?"

In her previous life, Nan Qiuyue knew that Xu Zhiye was an exceptionally outstanding person. People on the Internet were saying that his family background was extraordinary, so Nan Qiuyue initially felt like people on the Internet, thinking that everything about Xu Zhiye must be protected by his family behind the scenes.

Later, Nan Qiuyue looked up a lot of information about Xu Zhiye and found that every step he took in the investment bank was achieved through his own ability. There were even rumors online that his family did not support his work at all.

It now seems that the Xu family wanted to train Xu Zhiye to go into politics. So how much did Xu Zhiye pay to change his career and then work in the financial industry?

Nan Qiuyue looked at him with heartache. She didn't care what job Xu Zhiye did or what profession he was in. She just wanted him to be happy every day and not be like in his previous life, where he couldn't even laugh.

Xu Zhi also seemed to be stumped by Nan Qiuyue's question. He thought silently, as if it was the first time that someone who had no blood relationship with him, other than his grandfather and others, asked him if he was tired, and asked him to learn to stop.

Since I was a child, except for my grandfather, everyone told me that I must work hard because I am the only heir to the Xu family.

When people outside saw him, they always praised his achievements in an attempt to curry favor with his family. Sometimes he couldn't tell whether those people really thought he was excellent or whether they were just praising him for being Commander Xu's grandson or Secretary Xu's son, that was all.

As Xu Zhiye, when can he truly break free from the shackles imposed on him by the Xu family?

I don’t want to be anyone’s suffix, I just care about Xu Zhiye as a person.

Looking at Nan Qiuyue's worried expression at this moment, Xu Zhi felt as if he had found the person who only cared about "Xu Zhiye".
