Zhou He escorted Xie Qingyu all the way back to the Xie family.

Just as Xie Qingyu got out of the car, he couldn't help but call out to her, "Hey."

"What's wrong?" Xie Qingyu bent down to look at him.

"Call me if anything happens." Zhou He left those words behind, not caring whether Xie Qingyu understood or not, and drove off.

He was afraid of running into Xie Qingqing later.

He had previously thought of asking Xie Qingqing to clarify things, and that if she didn't want to annul the engagement, Zhou He wouldn't agree so easily.

However, Assistant Feng's words completely dispelled his idea.

After listening to his thoughts, Assistant Feng told him that if Xie Qingqing really didn't want to break off the engagement, she wouldn't stop contacting him during this period.

Xie Qingyu will not be brought back.

Zhou He then belatedly realized that Xie Qingqing hadn't sent him any messages for a while, and she hadn't even replied to the messages he sent her after he learned about the marriage swap.

This shows that Xie Qingqing wanted to change the marriage.

This means Xie Qingqing doesn't want to marry him.

It was precisely because Zhou He realized this that he so easily agreed to the marriage swap after just one phone call from Assistant Feng.

He was afraid of meeting Xie Qingqing because he hadn't figured out how to face her yet.

Xie Qingyu was completely unaware of Zhou He's thoughts.

But at least today we know that Zhou He's change in attitude is indeed Zhou Shenye's attitude.

Xie Qingyu basically had a plan in mind for what to do next.

Rather than devising a strategy, figuring out how to get closer to Zhou Shenye is what we should be considering right now.

With two paths before them, Zhou He's side was undoubtedly the easiest to attack.

And the facts were just as Xie Qingyu had imagined.

Zhou Shenye's side is also talking about Zhou He now.

"He didn't say anything?" Zhou Shenye didn't think of asking Assistant Feng about this until the evening.

"Young Master Zhou He is very easy to talk to. After I persuaded him a few times, he agreed. Although I could hear some reluctance in his tone, he accepted the result calmly," Assistant Feng reported on the situation when he called Zhou He.

“This matter has indeed wronged him a bit. See if you can find a way to make it up to him.” Zhou Shenye held the documents in his hand without looking up.

"Young Master Zhou He likes racing," Assistant Feng reminded him.

"There's a limited-edition race car in the garage overseas, but there probably isn't one in China yet. Arrange for it to be shipped back to him," Zhou Shenye finally put down the documents in his hand and instructed Assistant Feng.

Zhou Shenye had tried various methods to treat his illness, especially some extreme sports, which he thought were more effective. As a fan of racing cars, he had collected quite a few.

"Okay." Assistant Feng had already thought of that when he spoke.

“Also, arrange some profit for Third Brother,” Zhou Shenye added.

The third brother he mentioned is Zhou He's father.

The Zhou family's power and shares are relatively concentrated.

Apart from him, the others basically held very few shares. They were given a few companies to run themselves, and then they just waited for dividends.

Since we owe Zhou He, it's only right that we give them some business.

Zhou Shenye didn't think there was anything wrong with his arrangement.

They even think it's a good thing.

Xie Qingqing herself wanted to break off her engagement with Zhou He. She had this idea, and even if she married Zhou He, it might not be a good thing.

If everyone is willing to switch, then there's no problem.

It was almost midnight, and Assistant Feng had already gone home.

Zhou Shenye was the only one left in the quiet room.

There wasn't a single light on in front of the large table; only the moonlight from outside shone in, yet one could still clearly see the man's restrained expression.

He spun the prayer beads in his hand, making them fly, while he sat in the chair, keeping his body as far away from the table as possible to avoid touching it.

At times like these, even excessive skin contact can trigger feelings of unmet needs.

It seems to be flaring up quite frequently these past two days.

Zhou Shenye thought to himself.

This time, in particular, the momentum is overwhelming.

It made him wish someone could be by his side right now.

Over the years, he has tried many treatments, and even tried contact with boys when all else failed, but that made him feel even worse than contact with women.

The prayer beads spun faster and faster, and Zhou Shenye couldn't resist picking up his phone to call Assistant Feng and ask Xie Qingqing to come over.

If there were readily available treatments, why would he continue to torture himself like this?

Zhou Shenye reached for his phone on the table.

He paused for a moment when he saw the investigation report under his phone, then picked it up.

Perhaps it was Assistant Feng's report that made Zhou Shenye think at this moment whether he should also provide some compensation to the other girl.

After all, he didn't know if the girl was willing.

At this moment, Zhou Shenye recalled that Assistant Feng had said Xie Qingyu was the girl in the mall.

He remembered the voice; listening to those words distracted him and helped him recover quickly.

As if possessed, he picked up the investigation again.

Under the moonlight, it was actually difficult to make out any textual content.

Only a part of the photo can be barely discerned as an outline.

Zhou Shenye hadn't looked at it very carefully the last time, but he remembered that Xie Qingyu's two photos had very different styles, and he hadn't paid attention to what she actually looked like.

Now, when you look at it again, the face is even harder to see.

Even so, the difference between the two photos is still quite noticeable.

Zhou Shenye read through the entire investigation from beginning to end, and finally placed the investigation report on the table.

Zhou Shenye thought to himself that he should have Assistant Feng find an opportunity to offer Xie Qingyu some benefits tomorrow.

After all, she will be his niece-in-law in the future.

If she marries into the Zhou family, she will not be mistreated.

After finishing his thoughts, Zhou Shenye got up and went back to his bedroom.

After taking only a few steps and feeling the Buddhist prayer beads on his wrist, he realized that the most difficult time had passed so easily this time.

His gaze shifted to the table. Sure enough, he should find something to distract himself so he could get through this quickly.

However, I've tried it before, and it had almost no effect.

You can try again next time.

Assistant Feng received the task from Zhou Shenye the next morning.

"For Miss Xie Qingyu?" Assistant Feng repeated, making sure he hadn't misheard.

"Okay, you can decide how much to give." Zhou Shenye nodded.

“Then we may need to investigate further,” Assistant Feng said. “Miss Xie was just brought back from the countryside, and it seems there’s nothing she particularly likes. If anything, it might be money. I saw in the investigation that she’s been shopping a lot lately.”

When Assistant Feng said that, Zhou Shenye also remembered that Xie Qingyu had called her father that day asking for money.

"Then let's find a way to give her some money."

“She doesn’t do business, and she doesn’t have a job…” Assistant Feng was a little embarrassed; he had to find a reason to get the money into her hands.
