After she died, Mr. Bo knelt in front of the tombstone and cried like a dog.

Yan Chen lay in bed for a year, and all his memories were blank, like broken chains.

After the medical team came and checked the patient's body, Mr. Yan and Butler Du also rushed to the ward.

Old Yan asked with concern: "Yan Chen, how do you feel? Is there anything particularly uncomfortable?"

Although Yan Chen was awake, his reaction was still a little dull.

His eyes slowly turned to Yan Haoyue, quite suspicious: "Haoyue, you, you are back? Was it Bo Hanshi who saved you?"

She had hardly ever mentioned her experiences in Nanyang to anyone before Yan Chen woke up.

She looked at Elder Yan who was standing by and shook her head, saying, "No, it was...Xiao Yan who let me back."

In fact, Mr. Yan has always been puzzled about this. How could the bad guy let people go so easily?

He was not clear about the twists and turns, he only knew that Yan Chen was shot and fell into the sea, and it was Xiao Yan's gang who did it.

Yan Chen paused for a long time, thinking for a long time and asked: "Where are the people who went to Nanyang with me? Where is Bai Xiao? And, is Xiao Yan dead?"

Old Yan knew nothing: "Bai Xiao? Wasn't Bai Xiao the one who pretended to be my biological daughter and poisoned me? Wasn't she in the same group with Xiao Yan? Why would she go to Nanyang with you to save Haoyue?"

He only knew that Bo Hanshi had assigned his men to Yan Chen, but he did not ask who they were or what organization they hired.

These things are a long story and the relationships are complicated.

Yan Haoyue said, "These things are a long story. Yan Chen just woke up. Godfather, let's let him rest first. It won't be too late to talk about it after he has rested enough."

Yan Chen pondered for a long time, and all the details gradually became clear in his mind.

He called Yan Haoyue: "Haoyue, at the Guanyin Temple, I failed to stop Bai Xiao from shooting at you, and I almost injured you by mistake..."

"Brother, you should have a good rest. It will be fine when you wake up."

Yan Chen was stunned.

She always addressed him by his full name. When things were better, she would call him Brother Chen, mostly to tease him about how he was already an adult and still had no partner.

In his eyes, Yan Haoyue had a bad temper and was a cold-hearted person. He was engaged in profiteering in the group and his methods were not fair. To put it bluntly, he was like a villain.

He is far less respectful and gentle than Qiao Yu.

This is the first time I’ve heard you call me “Big Brother” in such a serious manner like today.

Yan Chen wanted to know what happened after he fell into the sea, so he said, "Haoyue, please stay and talk to me. My mind is very confused now."

"That's fine, Haoyue. You stay here and take care of him. After all, he just woke up."

After Mr. Yan left.

Yan Chen and Yan Haoyue were the only ones left in the ward.

Yan Chen asked: "Is Bai Xiao dead?"

She didn't hide it, nodded and said, "Those who went to Nanyang with you to save me are basically all dead."

"It must have been that bastard Xiao Yan who did it! The people we brought with us were not enough. How did you escape? It was really Xiao Yan..."

He hadn't finished his indignant words yet.

She interrupted him and said calmly, "Brother, thank you for saving me. No matter what happened in between, you saved me. I was sold by my biological parents when I was a child. In fact, I felt very little family love, and our relationship was indeed not very close."

"But even so, you were able to save me, and I am really grateful to you. Maybe in your eyes, I, Yan Haoyue, don't have much moral conscience, but if you hadn't saved me, you wouldn't have stayed here for a year."

She seldom spoke these heartfelt words to Yan Chen, and most of the time, Yan Chen did not think that she was a caring person.

Suddenly, Yan Chen was stunned, puzzled but also a little moved: "I couldn't save you either. Besides, we are both orphans and grew up with the support of Old Yan. It can be considered a fate. I still recognize you as my sister."

She looked up and smiled at him. "Verbal gratitude may be fake, and there is not much substantial return. You also know that I don't have many Fengxing shares, only 10%. Of which, I will transfer 5% to you for free, as a reward for you going to Nanyang to save me and getting seriously injured."

Yan Chen was really enlightened and almost petrified: "Those shares are the rewards you deserve for working in Fengxing for so long. You, you really want to transfer them to me?"

Or free of charge?

Before, I asked her to sell it to him, but she refused.

She knew he couldn't believe it, so she didn't say anything more. She just said, "I originally planned to sell all my shares to you, but Mr. Yan has been very kind to me in raising me, so I plan to give him the remaining 5%. You know me, I used to be heartless and money-oriented. Of course, I still put money first now, but... I seem to gradually understand the bond between people, which is something I have never experienced before."

After she was sold cheaply and cruelly by her biological parents, all her emotions, active or passive, gradually disappeared.

Money is everything. This is the heaviest and most profound lesson her biological parents taught her when they brought her into this world.

But after that trip to Nanyang, and countless times of life and death, even a heart made of stone softened.

She also realized belatedly that the Yan family's affection for her, although not strong, was gentle and warm. In the past, she actually disdained this.

Yan Chen was still confused: "Haoyue, what's wrong with you? You're selling all your shares. Are you going to leave Fengxing?"

"I will wait until you have recovered and have successfully taken over my business before I leave."

The new year's property tax for the house in her name in New York has not yet been paid. She plans to find a job in an investment bank, which is what she has always been good at.

There are a lot of financial dogs on Wall Street and the competition is fierce. If you really can't get into a top financial company, go to New York University to get a PhD in finance.

She obtained her master's degree from Nancheng University, whose finance major was only average. At that time, Mr. Yan had not found his biological daughter yet, so she wanted to stay close to home so that she could compete with Yan Chen.

Looking back, it’s no wonder that Yan Chen always said that she was bad. She was indeed not that kind, nor was she a noble person who regarded money as dirt.

The extra US dollars she earned from Xiao Yan, plus her savings over the past few years, were enough to support her during this transition period.

The journey that Ye Xiaowu experienced was so bizarre and exciting that it infinitely raised Yan Haoyue's life threshold. When he returned to Nancheng, everything seemed to have changed.

People are like this, they are almost paranoid in order to get a certain result, but it seems that it is just like that if they really use any means to achieve their goal.

Yan Chen became more and more confused: "You seem to have changed a lot since you came back from Nanyang. What happened?"

Yan Haoyue didn't know where to start. There was no one in the world who could empathize with her. She didn't expect anyone to support her decision. She smiled and asked, "You must hate Xiao Yan, right?"

Yan Chen spoke very bluntly: "Of course, he did a lot of unforgivable things to the Yan family and Bo Hanshi. He is a bad man, so I naturally hate him. When I went to Nanyang to save you, I almost killed him. Is he dead?"

"do not know."

She didn't refute anything, she stood up and said, "You should have a good rest, I will go back to the company to work for you."

Yan Chen frowned slightly and asked, "Haoyue, have you really decided to leave Fengxing? Does Old Yan know about this?"

"I haven't told Mr. Yan yet, but he has always been open-minded. Even if he doesn't support it, he won't oppose my decision. I'm just going to New York to study for a doctorate."

"You don't have to leave Fengxing to study for a doctorate in New York. When I recover, I can take care of your business for you until you come back to study..."

Yan Haoyue didn't want to explain too much, so he said, "I may live there forever after I get my Ph.D. You know, my life ideal has always been to live a better life. New York is also a bigger pond for financial dogs. But I will come back to see you."

She had never thought of exposing her and Xiao Yan's affairs to the Yan family and forcing them to accept something.

Life is never a perfect happy ending. Her and Xiao Yan's lives were cold and not perfect from the beginning. They had the villain script in their hands, so a little bit of perfection was enough.

……

When I came out of the hospital, my cell phone rang.

It is an international cross-border number.

I realized who was calling, my heart started beating fast, and I was stunned for a moment before I picked up the phone: "Hello?"
