Lin Yu's tone was filled with a heart-pounding paranoia. He stared at Shen Jingyan intently, as if he wanted to imprison her with his gaze, and then he said word by word in a decisive tone: "I am very sure, Shen Jingyan, you can only belong to me! No one in this world can take you away from me! Not even the king of heaven can do that!"

Facing Lin Yu's fiery and crazy gaze, Shen Jingyan couldn't help but feel annoyed and anxious. She frowned and responded impatiently: "Lin Yu, I'm really fed up with this life of being imprisoned like a prisoner! I'm trapped here every day without any personal freedom. I feel like I'm suffocating!"

Hearing Shen Jingyan's words, Lin Yu slowly lowered his eyes, not daring to look her in the eye, but deep in his eyes he revealed an unconcealable pain. He murmured to himself, "Jingyan... I did this simply because I was too afraid of losing you. Whenever I thought that one day you might leave me and go into someone else's arms, my whole heart felt like it was being pierced by thousands of steel needles, and it hurt so much that I could hardly breathe."

Shen Jingyan took a deep breath, trying to calm her inner emotions, and tried to make her voice sound calmer: "But if you really love me, you shouldn't imprison me in such an extreme way! Isn't true love based on mutual trust and respect?"

After a moment of silence, Lin Yu seemed to have finally made a concession. He gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, in that case, I am willing to give you a certain degree of freedom. However, you must solemnly promise me that from now on you will never meet that man named Jiang Xiyan again! Otherwise, there is no need to discuss anything!"

Facing the conditions proposed by Lin Yu, Shen Jingyan couldn't help but feel annoyed. She widened her eyes and asked back: "How can I guarantee it? I can't live under your surveillance all the time! Besides, even if I agree to you, can you send someone to follow me 24 hours a day?"

At this moment, Lin Yu suddenly took out his mobile phone with an expressionless face, quickly dialed a number, and then coldly ordered to the person on the other end of the phone: "From this moment on, immediately cancel all bank cards under Shen Jingyan's name!" After that, he hung up the phone without hesitation.

Shen Jingyan frowned slightly, with a hint of doubt and dissatisfaction in her eyes, and asked softly: "What is the point of you doing this?"

Lin Yu, who was standing aside, raised a cold smile on his handsome face. There was an imperceptible viciousness hidden in the depths of his eyes, like a poisonous snake hidden in the dark, ready to deliver a fatal blow at any time.

"Humph! Without money, do you think you can still keep in touch with Jiang Xiyan?" Lin Yu's voice sounded coldly, with undisguised sarcasm and pride, "This is the whole meaning of my move!"

Shen Jingyan turned her head away as if she hadn't heard anything, no longer looking at Lin Yu's annoying face. At this moment, the sun was setting, and the sky was dyed a gorgeous orange-red, like a beautiful painting. However, such a beautiful scenery could not dispel the haze in her heart. She stared at the clouds in the sky quietly. Those clouds gathered or dispersed, changing constantly, just like her chaotic mood at this time, making her feel more and more depressed.

In an instant, the whole room fell into deathly silence, so quiet that it was scary.

Apart from the two people's slightly rapid breathing, no other sound could be heard. Time seemed to freeze at this moment, and everything became so heavy.

But in the core area of ​​this bustling city, the scene is quite different.

The towering skyscrapers are lined up one after another, reaching into the sky; on the wide roads, vehicles are constantly flowing, like flowing ribbons. The traffic lights flash alternately, and pedestrians and vehicles shuttle through them in an orderly manner. On the streets and alleys, people are walking hurriedly, with busyness and excitement on their faces.

The neon signs at the store entrances are colorful and dazzling; the roadside snack stands emit tempting aromas, attracting passers-by to stop and taste. This is the hustle and bustle and vitality of the city, which forms a sharp contrast with the tranquility in the room.

Jiang Xiyan was wearing a custom-made high-end suit, and every line perfectly outlined his tall figure. His face was as cold as a sculpture, and his deep eyes revealed an elusive light. He stood in the top floor office of his company's headquarters, in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling window, overlooking the vibrant city scenery below.

Jiang Xiyan narrowed his eyes slightly, and his thoughts returned to the upcoming business negotiation. This negotiation was crucial to the future development of the company, and the opponent was a veteran powerhouse in the industry, and its strength should not be underestimated.

He turned back to his desk, picked up the carefully prepared negotiation materials, and read them carefully again. He repeatedly considered every piece of data and every strategy in his mind. He knew that this negotiation was not only a contest of interests, but also a game of wisdom and courage.

On the day of the negotiation, Jiang Xiyan and his elite team arrived at the negotiation site on time. The atmosphere in the conference room was solemn, and representatives from both sides sat opposite each other, their eyes revealing determination and confidence.

Jiang Xiyan was the first to break the silence. His voice was steady and powerful: "Ladies and gentlemen, we are sitting here today to discuss a cooperation opportunity that is vital to both of us. I believe that through our joint efforts, we will be able to achieve mutual benefit and a win-win situation."

The representative of the rival company nodded slightly, but there was still a hint of vigilance in his eyes: "Mr. Jiang, we also hope to reach a satisfactory cooperation plan. However, we may need further discussion on the specific terms."

Jiang Xiyan listened to the other party's words while quickly organizing the response strategy in his mind, his face remained calm. "Of course, we are very willing to listen to your opinions and suggestions."

The lights in the conference room were soft and bright, and the huge conference table seemed like a silent battlefield. Outside the window, the hustle and bustle of the city could be heard faintly, forming a sharp contrast with the tense atmosphere in the room. The other representative nodded slightly and continued, "Mr. Jiang, we hope to clarify the responsibilities and obligations of both parties in the cooperation to ensure the smooth progress of the project."

"Of course," Jiang Xiyan crossed his hands on the table, his eyes sharp and his tone decisive, "We will specify the terms in detail in the contract to ensure that the rights and interests of both parties are protected."

The other representative nodded slightly and continued, "Mr. Jiang, we also hope to further discuss the specific implementation plan of the project to ensure that every link can be efficiently promoted."

"We already have a mature plan for this problem," Jiang Xiyan took out a document from the folder next to him and handed it to the other party's representative, "This is our preliminary plan. You can take a look at it first."

The document fluttered slightly in the air, as if carrying a great mission. The other representative took the document and read it carefully. After a moment, he raised his head and said, "Mr. Jiang, this plan looks very comprehensive, but we may need further communication on some details. For example, in terms of the arrangement of time nodes, we think it can be more compact to improve the efficiency of the project."

The sunlight shone through the window onto the conference table, but it could not dispel the tense atmosphere. Everyone's expression was particularly solemn, as if they were thinking about the next decision.

"I understand your thoughts," Jiang Xiyan took a sip of the coffee on the table and said slowly, "But the arrangement of the time nodes needs to take into account many factors. We need to ensure that every link can proceed smoothly and cannot blindly pursue speed."

The lights in the conference room were a little dim, and the huge conference table seemed like an insurmountable gap that separated the two parties. Outside the window, the hustle and bustle of the city could be heard faintly, but it could not break the tense atmosphere in the room. The other representative frowned slightly and said, "Mr. Jiang, we also understand that we cannot blindly pursue speed, but the market competition is fierce and time is very precious to us. We hope to speed up the project as much as possible while ensuring quality."

The atmosphere in the conference room became more tense, and the air seemed to freeze. Jiang Xiyan put down his coffee cup, crossed his hands in front of his chest, and pondered for a moment.

"I know your concerns, but our plan has been fully demonstrated and optimized," Jiang Xiyan said with a sharp gaze and a steady and powerful tone, "We will do our best to shorten the project cycle while ensuring quality."

After hearing this, the other representative's expression eased a little, but he still had some doubts: "Mr. Jiang, how do you plan to shorten the project cycle?"

"This is an issue we need to discuss internally," Jiang Xiyan's eyes flashed with confidence, his voice was low and powerful, "but I can assure you that we have the strength and ability to do so."

At this time, the conference room was so quiet that only the sound of breathing could be heard. The other representative nodded slightly and said, "Mr. Jiang, I hope you can come up with a specific plan as soon as possible. We also need to report to the company's senior management."

"No problem," Jiang Xiyan raised his chin slightly, his expression confident and calm, "I will give you a satisfactory answer in the shortest possible time."

The sunlight came in through the gaps in the curtains, casting a long and thin shadow on the conference table, as if foreshadowing the future direction of the negotiations.

Seeing Jiang Xiyan's confident look, the other party's representatives gradually dissipated their doubts. They knew that Jiang Xiyan's reputation and strength in the business world should not be underestimated. Since he made a promise, he would definitely try his best to fulfill it.

After the two sides had a brief exchange on some details, the tense atmosphere in the conference room finally eased. Jiang Xiyan stood up and extended his hand to the other representative with a smile: "Thank you for your understanding and support. I believe our cooperation will be a complete success."
