After the divorce, the crazy CEO knocked on his ex-wife's door every night.

She had heard that the relationship between Han Xin and An Zihao had changed since they got their marriage certificate. She had already heard about these things before Han Xin returned to China.

She went to the Shen Group. Guan Chengxin continued to handle everything for her.

Shen Xuan would occasionally pick up a pen, but her eyes were fixed on her phone, as if she was waiting for something, yet she couldn't quite put her finger on what she was hoping for.

I sit in the office all day, feeling listless and unmotivated.

As it was almost time to leave work, Guan Chengxin came over and asked, "You look so gloomy. How about I treat you to a meal to help you relax?"

"Really?" she asked as she packed her things.

Guan Chengxin crossed his arms and looked at her busy figure with a smile, saying, "What a question! When have I ever lied to you? Besides, it's just a meal; I can definitely afford to treat you!"

"Okay," she replied calmly.

The two left the company building.

After getting into the car, he gripped the steering wheel and looked at the woman in the passenger seat, his eyes filled with tenderness: "What would you like to eat?"

"Whatever!" she replied with a smile.

Guan Chengxin sensed that she was unhappy, but instead of directly exposing her, he said in a deep voice, "Since you promised to be my sister, I have to take responsibility for you. So there's no need to be polite."

Shen Xuan thought he was talking about food, so he forced a smile and said, "I'm not picky, anything is fine."

He glanced at her sideways and replied with a chuckle, "You know that's not what I meant!"

"Weren't you getting close to Li Siyuan? Have you changed for the better?" Her tone was laced with sarcasm.

"You should know that our Shen family's business has been struggling all these years, and it's all thanks to his help. If he hadn't persuaded me to stay a few years ago, I would have left long ago."

He thought for a moment, then added, "Besides, you should understand that I've always been the one managing the Shen family business. If I'm not here one day, do you think you can handle the situation?"

Shen Xuan's hand tightened slightly, her gaze falling on his profile. She suddenly realized that the man in front of her was far more profound than she had imagined.

It was because of Li Siyuan's support that he was willing to stay in the Shen family business. It wasn't just about helping out; he was essentially in control of the group's fate.

Although she was nominally the head of the Shen family, she was actually just a figurehead.

Seemingly noticing the change in her expression, he smiled and turned to look at her again.

"Don't worry. Considering the kindness your grandfather once showed me, I won't give up on the Shen family easily. Besides, as your brother, this place is also my home. How could I ignore it? I just hope to help ease your burden."

Shen Xuan didn't say anything more, only managing a forced smile.

This person truly controlled everything so skillfully that even her father was unaware of how the Shen family had gradually declined under his leadership.

Lu Yuchen waited outside the Shen family's gate for a long time but did not see Shen Xuan return home. Instead, he saw Shen Feiyan carrying a bag and leaving the house.

He leaned back in his chair, his hand behind his head, and frowned when he saw Shen Feiyan walk by.

Thinking about the relationship between Shen Feiyan and Lu Shuli, I felt a sense of worry.

He stared at her back, and when he looked up, he found that a black car had already stopped next to her.

Shen Feiyan glanced at the car, then climbed inside.

Lu Yuchen immediately sat up straight, lowered his hands from his head, and stared at the scene with a look of surprise on his face.

When did Shen Feiyan become so stylish?

There was even a private car to pick them up, and judging from the driver's demeanor, he was clearly no ordinary person.

He glanced at the license plate and secretly memorized the number.

The other person turned around alertly and glanced back, which startled him so much that he immediately lay down.

After the car drove away, he raised his head again and looked ahead.

Soon after, Shen Xuan got out of another car. Guan Chengxin dropped her off and then left.

Lu Yuchen watched her walk into the house, and only after she turned and went inside without any expression did he get out of the car.

Shen Xuan entered the living room and looked up at the bedroom on the second floor. Shen Feiyan was not at home.

I had just put down my backpack when the doorbell suddenly rang.

She turned to look at the door, hesitant.

Li Siyuan came so often that she would feel nervous every time the doorbell rang.

She thought that Li Siyuan must have found out about her meeting with Lu Yuchen and was coming to cause her trouble again.

Therefore, she had no intention of opening the door.

I dropped my bag, turned around and ran upstairs, while the doorbell kept ringing.

Lu Yucheng stood in front of the door for a long time without anyone opening it, feeling inevitably disappointed, and didn't move for a long time.

He thought that Shen Xuan was still very angry with him, and perhaps she had already given up on their relationship.

After all, the ring he gave her when he proposed had been returned, which meant that things could never be the same between them again.

He sighed, took out the phone number he had gotten from Lu Shuli, and tried dialing her number.

Shen Xuan was in the bathroom at that moment, her phone vibrating incessantly on the bed.

When he didn't receive the call, he left a text message: "If you're not ready to face me, I'll leave now."

I hope you can give me another chance to take care of you. —Lu Yuchen

After sending the text message, he gripped his phone tightly, took one last look at the door, and turned to leave.

After Shen Xuan finished showering, she noticed an unfamiliar text message notification on her screen and quickly clicked to read it.

Seeing the name in the signature section, my heart skipped a beat.

Could it be that he was the one who rang the doorbell just now?

He quickly replied: "Did you just go to my house?"

I quickly put on a coat and went downstairs. When I opened the door, it was pitch black outside, with only the road clearly visible under a few streetlights.

Disappointed, she closed the door and went back to the living room to sit down.

Suddenly my phone rang, and I immediately pressed the answer button.

"You just came over?" she asked, leaning back on the sofa, trying to keep her voice calm.

Lu Yuchen on the other end of the phone sounded slightly hesitant: "Yes, I felt you didn't want to meet, so I left."

"I was taking a shower just now, so I couldn't open the door. Are you home now?"

Thinking about that accident, I'm really afraid he'll be wandering around outside alone at night.

"I'm back in my little house now. Can we have dinner together tomorrow?"

"Sure, let's invite Xiaolu and the others to give you a welcome dinner and a proper welcome home!"

"Okay, see you tomorrow!"

Through the telephone line, the two rekindled their old friendship.

At that moment, she really wanted to drop everything and go straight to him.

On the other side, Li Siyuan sat quietly in his study, lost in thought.

The curtains were drawn tightly, completely blocking out the endless night outside.

The room was dimly lit, and he stared at the photo frame on the table with a complicated expression.

It was a photo of a boy and a girl. The boy was about twelve years old, and the girl was about eight.

Long-forgotten images gradually surfaced in my mind.

It was a scene of two children playing in the garden.

The boy sat on the grass, engrossed in reading, while the little girl rested her chin on her hands, lay in front of him, and kicked wildly behind him with her legs bent.
