Li Siyuan clenched his fists, gradually calming the anger in his heart.

Watching her lonely figure gradually disappear into the distance, a touch of melancholy swept through my heart.

"Find a reliable person to follow her," he instructed Jiang Yu, frowning.

His expression immediately darkened.

Shen Xuan stepped out of the elevator, and the office workers downstairs couldn't help but look at her.

Seeing that she was alone, everyone's speculations instantly fell apart.

They were just discussing her identity, but now it seems those guesses were all wrong.

After all, Li Siyuan did not accompany her, so she was definitely not Li Siyuan's ex-wife.

Shen Xuan seemed completely unconcerned about all of this.

After leaving the company, she hailed a taxi on the roadside.

After giving her address, she sat quietly alone in the car, lost in thought.

She arrived at a nursing home in Jiangcheng and quietly squatted down next to an old woman.

The old woman sat in a wheelchair, staring blankly ahead, a gentle smile on her face. Although the radiance of youth had faded, her distinctive face as a wealthy woman was still clearly recognizable.

The caregiver pushed the wheelchair aside, and Shen Xuan quietly accompanied the elderly man as he basked in the sun.

Over the years, my grandmother has been constantly missing my mother, and she has lost her enthusiasm for life.

Each time she came to visit, she could only keep her company quietly. The reason she stayed here was because she couldn't bear to leave her grandmother alone in Jiangcheng.

If she had chosen to go abroad six months ago, perhaps she wouldn't be in this situation today.

Shen Xuan gently held the old lady's arm, sat quietly to the side, and pressed her cheek against her grandmother's shoulder.

Before she knew it, tears blurred her vision.

Only when she sensed someone behind her did she dazedly wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes.

"Young Madam, what are you doing here?"

Uncle Zhang, one of the old gentleman's entourage, saw her and came over to inquire.

Shen Xuan gathered her thoughts, turned to look at him, her worries gone, and smiled, "Yes, I missed my grandmother, so I came to see her."

As she spoke, she turned her head sharply, deliberately preventing the other person from seeing her expression.

Uncle Zhang's heart tightened. Shen Xuan had just cried?

"The old gentleman is waiting for you over there!" Uncle Zhang said again.

“Okay, I’ll be right there!” she replied, waving her hand as she stood up from the bench.

She straightened the blanket covering the old lady's legs, and the caregiver then stepped forward to push the wheelchair.

Shen Xuan watched the departing figure go, then turned to Uncle Zhang.

Uncle Zhang gestured for her to proceed, and she stepped in another direction.

During this period, the old gentleman was fully aware of everything that had happened between her and Li Siyuan, but he did not want to get involved in their affairs.

Six months ago, when the old man asked if the marriage he had arranged was a mistake, Shen Xuan simply said calmly, "Grandpa, don't worry about our relationship."

The old man gave them space and then truly let go of the reins, even going on a trip abroad.

After returning, Shen Xuan still managed to contact him through her lawyer.

When Shen Xuan met the old gentleman, she stopped in her tracks.

"Have you seen your grandmother?"

The old man sat in his wheelchair, holding a box of fish food, and was scattering it into the pond.

She gazed at his indifferent back and softly called out, "I've met you, Grandpa."

The old man did not turn around, but continued to feed the fish one food after another.

"What are your plans now? Do you have other ideas, or do you want to reconcile with Si Yuan?"

Shen Xuan understood what he meant. Remarriage was absolutely impossible, but if he refused, what would happen to the child in her womb?

She should have just registered her marriage with Lu Yucheng directly; otherwise, things might not have become so complicated.

After a moment's thought, she said, "Grandpa, Si Yuan and I can never remarry. Our marriage was a mistake from the start, so we can't go back to the way things were."

The old man sighed and said, "Your grandfather and I are brothers who have been through life and death together. I promised to take good care of you. If you really have other ideas, then I can help you decide, Xiao Xuan. You should think it through."

She had no doubt about his abilities.

But it is indeed difficult for her to accept having an elderly woman nearing eighty years old arrange her happiness.

This was the case three years ago, and it remains the case now.

After leaving, she went downstairs to Cheng Lu Animation Company.

It was right around the time she was leaving get off work, and she and Cheng Lu had arranged to go shopping together.

Therefore, after getting off the bus, she went straight to the company.

When I see a friend I haven't seen in a long time, I can't help but relax.

"Sister Xuan, you're finally back!" Little Qiqi greeted her first.

Shen Xuan forced a smile: "Yes, I came back to see you all!"

"Hey, Xiao Xuan, what brings you here all of a sudden?" Yin Xuan appeared out of nowhere, holding a glass of water as he walked up to her.

"You switched jobs? Was the treatment you received from Xuanmao not good?" Shen Xuan asked, puzzled and surprised.

"You might not know, but after President Lu went abroad, Xuanmao changed hands. I saw Cheng Lu opened a studio here, so I came to join in the fun! Who knew you'd leave so soon after I arrived!"

Upon hearing Yin Xuan mention that Xuanmao Films had changed owners, she was reminded once again of that man's actions.

She simply pursed her lips, not asking why, but she knew very well that it was she who made it difficult for Lu Yucheng to gain a foothold in the country, which was why the Lu family took action.

Xiao Qiqi typed on the keyboard, then turned to Yin Xuan and said, "Brother Yin Xuan, you said you'd treat us to dinner when Sister Xuan comes back. Are you treating her tonight?"

Yin Xuan put his hands on his hips and laughed, "Little sister, you didn't specifically call for Sister Xuan just so I'd treat you, did you?"

"No, I sent Sister Xuan a lot of messages, but she didn't reply. I'm also wondering why she suddenly came back!"

Shen Xuan explained with a smile, "It's not that I didn't want to reply, it's just that I changed my number. I was just thinking of coming back to see you all."

"No wonder! That explains why no one answered my calls or replied to my messages!"

Upon hearing this, Yin Xuan secretly rejoiced that he had not been misunderstood.

Cheng Lu, carrying documents, walked in through the door and, seeing the heartwarming scene, said, "Xiao Xuan, you're here!"

"Mmm!" she responded.

Cheng Lu placed the items on the shelf on the table, glanced down at her watch, and said, "Let's go then, we can have lunch together!"

Upon hearing the word "eat," Yin Xuan instinctively moved closer. "We're eating. Shouldn't I be included at a time like this?"

Cheng Lu smiled and said, "That's fine. We just happen to be short one person to pay the bill, so let's do it together!"

"It can't be that exaggerated, can it? Our boss Su can easily treat us to a meal!"

Xiao Qiqi interjected, "Yin Xuan, didn't you say you'd treat everyone to dinner when Sister Xuan came back? Why did you change your mind now?"

Why drag me into this? It's just a meal!

Faced with everyone's unanimous "accusations," Yin Xuan had no choice but to agree.

The others had already tidied up the clutter on their desks.

Shen Xuan, wearing a loose coat, walked out of the office building with everyone else.

A Porsche sports car sped to a stop on the side of the road downstairs.

Shen Xuan turned her head and recognized the person at a glance.
