A few days later, when Sheng Yang came home from get off work, he was followed by a young man wearing glasses and carrying a computer.

Sheng Yang specifically introduced to Xiang Ran that this was Kevin, his former secretary at F Group, who now works at Yixing as his assistant.

Kevin looked to be about 26 or 27 years old, with a rectangular face. He said to Xiang Ran a little stiffly, "Hello, Mrs. Sheng."

Seeing him like this, Sheng Yang smiled and said, "If you're not used to it, you can call her Magnolia."

After the greetings, Sheng Yang took Kevin into the study. Kevin left after about an hour.

-

Xiang Ran walked into the study and found the door open.

Sheng Yang leaned back in his chair, holding a cigarette in his hand, and was opening the drawer to look for a lighter.

When he saw Xiang Ran coming in, he put down the lighter.

Xiang Ran knocked on the door: "Have you had dinner?"

He waved to her.

Walking towards Xiang Ran, Sheng Yang stretched out his hand and put her on his lap, his voice a little tired: "Let me hold you for a while."

Although he never said that she was not allowed to enter the study, Xiang Ran rarely came in.

This is where he works.

"What's wrong? Are things not going well?" Xiang Ran asked.

"No, things here have only been progressing with twists and turns, nothing has gone wrong." He closed his eyes and leaned against her chest, "It's just that there are too many things to do, and they're a bit big, so it's inevitable that I feel a little tired. Before, there were some things that I hadn't taken over yet, so I didn't feel how tired I was. Now that these things have gradually come to me, I feel it all at once in the past few days. But don't worry, this is only temporary."

Although a little tired, the man is still optimistic overall.

Xiang Ran asked: "So, you recruited Kevin?"

Sheng Yang smiled. "Kevin is just an assistant, and it was his own idea to come here. I've recruited a few professional managers and sales people to come here. Once things get going, I'll slowly learn to let go. Otherwise... I'll probably die young like my father."

Xiang Ran held his head toward the window and said, "Say 'Pah, Pah, Pah' to the outside!"

Sheng Yang felt a surge of emotion in his heart, but he deliberately said, "Fool, I'm not shy at all! What's so disgusting about this?"

"Will you tell me or not?" Xiang Ran covered his mouth.

He moved her hand away: "Actually... I can see that if anything happens to me, you will definitely pack up and run away the next day."

Well, Xiang Ran thought, in fact, she would run away that very night, not even the next day.

Are you still waiting for the police to come and question you?

Sheng Yang saw the hesitation on her face.

He was about to say something harsh.

But she suddenly looked at him pitifully, with a hint of pleading in her voice: "Please, stop talking nonsense and just say 'bah, bah, bah'."

Sheng Yang softened his heart. He was just joking with her. "Okay, bah bah bah!"

"No need to say 'okay' up front...just say it—Pah!"

Sheng Yang then obediently turned towards the window and said, "Pooh, pooh, pooh!"

Xiang Ran finally laughed. She pulled his ear and said, "I'm telling you, don't say things like that anymore, brother. These kinds of words will only make people who care about you scared and uncomfortable, while those who don't care about you might even laugh in their hearts."

Haha, little girl.

Is she giving him a lesson?

Do you think he doesn't know these principles?

never mind!

Sheng Yang patted her head and said, "So I only told you this...but I won't say this again in the future, because I said I won't make you worry."

"Tsk, there must be a lot of people in this world who care about you."

She seemed not to understand what he meant and continued to guide him subjectively.

Xiang Ran only thought in her heart that after all, this man was so outstanding, and he would have a real wife, a real lover, and children in the future.

Now he was just talking.

But Sheng Yang said coldly: "But I don't care about those other people."

"I don't have a lot of emotions to begin with. I only have them for my closest family." He pointed to the triangular ornament on the table. "See, I like things that are constant. The core is as stable as the triangle. For me, this triangle is home. Father, mother, and children."

Xiang Ranyu choked.

What could she say?

She could tell him that he was actually in a triangle, with herself, Su Yiqing, and him as the three points.

"Why don't you speak?" He used his fingers to tease her lip beads.

"Who knows, maybe you are feeling guilty and suddenly say these touching words." Xiang Ran was really feeling guilty, but he could only bluff.

Sheng Yang smiled.

After taking over Yixing, in addition to some normal business activities, he also attended several very secretive social dinners full of power and resource exchanges. Thinking of the unbearable arguments discussed by those people at the table, and the celebrities and Internet celebrities who accompanied him with smiles, he was actually distracted for a moment.

But he was confident that he would not get lost in alcohol and sex.

He promised the person in his arms, "Su Yiqing, although the business world is full of temptations, I will be loyal to you... To be honest, I used to be inclined towards not getting married, but you appeared in my life and made me change my mind. I hope we can get the marriage certificate as soon as possible. I don't like ambiguity in this regard. I can wait - wait for Valentine's Day or Christmas as you said... But I hope you are also determined about marriage."

"I--"

His eyes were so hot that they frightened her.

The body is tense.

It was as if if she said "no", he would transform from a gentle gentleman into a devil and push her off the cliff.

"I know." Xiang Ran's heart was beating fast. Why change the subject? "I... want to drink some water. Do you want me to make you some tea?"

Sheng Yang let her go.

Looking at her back as she left, he frowned - if only she really knew.

-

I still remember the scene when my father was seriously ill.

When he was brought to the Sheng family, his father Sheng Feng was already terminally ill.

The house is often filled with the smell of Chinese medicine.

Little Sheng Yang didn't even dare to go forward to see his father.

It's not just because of unfamiliarity, but also because of fear.

Western medicine is helpless.

Traditional Chinese medicine not only provides comfort to patients, but also to the living.

Even a tough guy like my grandfather shed tears.

Even if the Sheng family had mountains of gold and silver, they could not completely save my father's life...

The night before his father died, his grandfather asked him to go to his father's room after he finished his homework, and he saw his father who was emaciated.

That was Sheng Yang’s last impression of his father. His face was sallow, and even his eyeballs were yellow.

His eyes were full of unwillingness and helplessness.

He was breathing heavily.

Like a stranded fish.

But Sheng Yang still mustered up the courage to hold his father's hand. Although he was still young at that time, he already understood that this handshake was equivalent to a "pledge of allegiance."

Sure enough, my father shed tears.

Grandfather also said that he would train him well.

At this moment, three generations of grandparents and grandchildren completed a kind of "inheritance".

-

Grandfather kept his promise.

He didn't break his promise.

From then on, he was diligent and studious, striving to be the best in everything.

It can even be said that they will do whatever it takes.

Looking back, all his subsequent actions may have originated from that night, a night that felt very fateful.

He later even did better than his father.

My aunt once said that my father was still indulging in sensual pleasures and living a mediocre life at his age.

Therefore, he never dared to rest.

Don't dare to stop.

He also refused to give in.

Because he saw life and death very early and knew how short life is.

I also once acquiesced to the fact that being alone and having no worries was more suitable for me.

For this reason, when he was in his early twenties, he was very obsessed with extreme sports. He was injured many times, but he still enjoyed it.

But who knew that the road of fate would quietly take a turn, and when he woke up one day, he found himself married.

The wife he married into an arranged marriage was actually the one he truly loved.

And I like it more and more...

God finally saw him - like a gift, like a blessing.

The little boy who left his hometown and came to Jiangnan to trace his roots now has a home of his own!

But he is still Sheng Yang - still the one destined to shoulder responsibilities and climb to the top.

That's why he longed to have someone trustworthy standing behind him.

His rear must be solid, trustworthy, and indestructible.

But, Su Yiqing...can she do it?
