Ultimately, the goal is to make him take responsibility and bear this heavy burden.

Lu Yuchen took the glass of red wine handed to him, swirled it gently, and stared intently at the glass in his hand, as if the red liquid held unspeakable secrets. "Don't jump to conclusions before you understand the truth of the matter. At least give me some time to sort things out."

"Shen Xuan hasn't come to see you lately, is it because of Gao Jing?"

These words seemed to break the brief silence, making the atmosphere in the room somewhat tense.

“She knows that Gao Jing and I have broken up, so there is no need for her to do this. There must be something else holding her back.”

Lu Yuchen's tone was calm, but his words revealed a hint of helplessness.

At this point, he realized that Shen Xuan had indeed been behaving somewhat unusually these past few days, appearing very busy, but he wasn't entirely sure what she was busy with.

“I think Shen Xuan is doing this because she doesn’t want to be a burden to you. Besides, Li Siyuan has recently gone abroad, so maybe she’s waiting for his return.”

The speaker's tone was analytical, as if he were trying to unravel Lu Yucheng's confusion.

Lu Yucheng seemed somewhat surprised upon hearing this. He then carefully placed the wine glass on the coffee table in front of him and rested his elbow on the edge of the sofa. "That's her choice. I have no right to interfere."

"I will go back and handle those company issues properly."

With that, Lu Yuchen stood up, straightened his suit jacket slightly, and turned to leave.

"Since I've decided to help you, I won't allow the company to have any problems. I also hope you won't have any other thoughts or intentions towards my mother, because you can't possibly defeat her."

After leaving those words, Lu Yuchen left the room directly.

With his old connections in Jiangcheng, making a comeback wouldn't be difficult.

Even though the bank has lifted his personal credit restrictions, Chan Sau-man still doesn't want him to stay here.

She wanted him to return to Jiangcheng, since he would have more connections and resources there.

As for Lu Shuli, Chen Xiuwen wouldn't care too much as long as he didn't try to take advantage of the Lu family.

For him, the most important thing now is how to preserve his status and rights.

As for the Lu family, he avoided them whenever possible.

On the other side, Lu Shuli sat quietly to the side, her eyes revealing a deep gloom.

When Lu Yucheng stood up and left, he did not see the hidden anger in Lu Shuli's eyes.

He muttered to himself: It's time to teach this mother and son a lesson and see if I really can't beat this old woman.

These words, though spoken in a low voice, revealed immense anger and dissatisfaction.

The Lu Family Hotel was completely silent.

Lu Yuchen walked out of Chen Xiuwen's room with a heavy expression, completely ignoring the respectful greetings from the attendants at the door.

This strong-willed woman did not allow her son to go against her wishes.

Not only was he subjected to a severe scolding, but he also had to endure the pressure of her threatening suicide.

At that moment, he felt terrible.

However, Li Siyuan left a message forbidding Chen Xiuwen from appearing anywhere here, all because of the trouble Shen Xuan had encountered. Naturally, he hoped to let Chen Xiuwen return to Jiangcheng, where she could at least avoid many unnecessary disputes.

Chen Xiuwen's words were still echoing in his mind: "You are my son, why don't you believe me? Do you have to make me die in front of you before you believe that I didn't hire someone to deal with that woman?"

Her tone was filled with helplessness and anger.

“I really didn’t send anyone to deal with her. If you’re not going to help me find the real culprit, fine, but you’re also joining others in suspecting me.”

These words were like a sharp knife cutting into his heart, causing him waves of pain.

Lu Yuchen got off the elevator and left with a worried expression.

Then, Chan Sau-man stormed out.

Her face was ashen, her eyes seemed to spit fire, and every step she took was filled with obvious anger.

The attendant at the door, seeing her appearance, cautiously called out, "Mrs. Lu."

With his head down, he didn't dare to look directly at her, only daring to cautiously observe her out of the corner of his eye. How could a mere follower like him dare to say anything when even Lu Yuchen was wary of this woman?

Clearly, the mother and son have had another falling out, and the situation seems to be quite bad.

"Get the car ready, I need to go out."

Chan Sau-man's voice was cold and firm, brooking no argument.

Having been involved in organized crime in her youth, she always had an aura of defiance, and today her son's actions completely ignited the anger within her.

Every word and every action of hers exuded an irrepressible anger.

"If Yuchen asks, just say he drove me to my death!"

After saying that, she picked up her bag and walked away angrily.

The feeling of being framed left her deeply troubled, not to mention that she was threatened by a junior who said she wouldn't be able to survive in Jiangcheng. How could she swallow this insult?

What angered her even more was that her own son didn't stand by her side either, and they all thought she was deliberately trying to mess with Shen Xuan.

All of this made her feel extremely lonely and aggrieved.

Inside the Gao family home, Gao Wei sat on the sofa, flipping through the newspaper and sipping coffee, looking very relaxed.

His demeanor was calm and composed, as if everything was under his control.

Shen Xuan rushed in from outside the door.

Her steps were hurried, and her eyes revealed anxiety and anger.

She stopped in her tracks, and a figure appeared at the doorway. When her gaze shifted to Gao Wei's direction, her entire face suddenly darkened.

"Oh, you're here!"

Gao Wei looked up at her, took a sip of his coffee cup, and then placed it back on the table.

His tone was indifferent, as if he was not surprised by her arrival.

"What did you do to my grandmother at the nursing home?"

Shen Xuan stared intently at the other person with a chilling gaze, his tone revealing an unusual power.

Her heart was filled with anger and suspicion, and she exuded a strong sense of aggression.

No one expected that Gao Wei would come to their door to cause trouble, and even tried to take the elderly away without their consent.

Fortunately, changing living conditions required a family member's signature for confirmation, which gave Shen Xuan a chance to breathe.

Gao Wei adjusted his glasses and said, "Why is it like this? I just wanted to see an old friend. Is that something to be stopped?"

His words sounded casual, as if everything was perfectly natural.

Upon hearing this, a surge of anger instantly ignited in Shen Xuan's heart.

She couldn't believe her ears; how could this person have the nerve to say such a thing?

"You think you're very familiar with my maternal grandmother? If she really had any autonomy, she probably wouldn't want to see someone like you."

She practically spat out those words through gritted teeth, each syllable as cold and piercing as if it were laced with a knife.
