Chapter 325: Chapter 325: Marshal, Watch Your Back
Looking at Ye Xunhuan’s dim face, Qin Rumeng sighed softly!
The Qin family are among the top tycoons in Huaxia, and Ye Xunhuan was the old man’s favorite nephew, his affection for him far surpassing that for his own grandson!
It was even very likely that he could become a man from an outside family managing the Qin family.
But would so many people in the Qin family allow an outsider to take charge?
In her heart, Qin Rumeng knew that even if the old man was willing, some in the Qin family definitely would not be!
Those people would try to obstruct Ye Xunhuan and even force him out.
He was not interested in that enviable position that countless people desired, but others did, and they would not let him go!
In a family like the Qin’s, which was like an empire, the struggle for succession was incredibly brutal. Not contending didn’t mean others would not!
Your good nature, wishing to cede your position, only makes others wish you dead!
Now, Ye Xunhuan was in Jiangzhong City, not in the capital, and no one had taken much notice of him yet, but could he hide away here for a lifetime?
A dragon is destined to soar eventually!
This was why Qin Fenghuang had urged Ye Xunhuan to strive for it before she died. Not striving was itself a struggle, and striving was also a struggle!
No one will spare you just because you choose not to contend!
"Xunhuan, don’t worry about Yu Rou; I will take good care of her," Qin Rumeng said, exhaling a deep breath and saying to Ye Xunhuan, "Besides, this is an opportunity for Yu Rou too!"
"But she shouldn’t have to endure all this..."
"There are some things you can’t choose. It’s all arranged by fate, just like your sister!" Qin Rumeng sighed softly, "All right, I’ll take her with me today!"
"I have already seen her parents, and they had no objections!"
Ye Xunhuan knew that whatever he said would be of no use, so he asked, "When are you leaving?"
"Right away!"
"So soon?"
"We have to leave sooner or later; better sooner than later, eventually we must part!"
Saying this, Qin Rumeng turned and walked back to the room before calling Tang Yurou out.
"Xunhuan, take good care of yourself when I’m gone, okay?" Tang Yurou, looking at Ye Xunhuan, had eyes filled with reluctance.
She didn’t want to part from Ye Xunhuan either, but Qin Rumeng had told her some things, and she had no choice but to leave!
Ye Xunhuan nodded, "You take care of yourself too!"
After Tang Yurou and Ye Xunhuan had talked for a while, she directly got into Qin Rumeng’s sports car.
"Xunhuan, wait for me, I’ll come back to find you!" Tang Yurou shouted through the car window to Ye Xunhuan, "I will miss you..."
Watching the sports car gradually disappear into the distance, Ye Xunhuan’s face was filled with unprecedented bitterness.
Having met him, all of Tang Yurou’s life trajectories had to change, and she had to learn to engage in intrigue and deception!
Could she endure it?
For a while, Ye Xunhuan was filled with guilt. If it wasn’t for him, how could Tang Yurou possibly have to go through all this?
But even without him, wouldn’t Tang Yurou grow?
After all, this society is like a vast dyeing vat, like a whip, slowly forcing your growth!
Whether or not Ye Xunhuan was there, Tang Yurou would grow, only the trajectory of her life would differ!
Inside the sports car, Qin Rumeng glanced at the somewhat teary-eyed Tang Yurou and said, "Yu Rou, do you hate your auntie?"
"No!" Tang Yurou shook her head, "I know auntie is doing this for Xunhuan’s good and mine too!"
"These are actually not your burdens to bear, but now I have forced them upon you!"
"Auntie, this is my own choice. I want to help Xunhuan." Tang Yurou’s eyes slowly grew firm, "Xunhuan’s status is too noble. Without your opportunity, even if I were with him, I could only be a drag on him!"
"I refuse to be a drag!"
At that moment, Tang Yurou’s life trajectory changed. The Tang Yurou, who was once as naive as a blank sheet of paper, disappeared the moment Qin Rumeng took her away from Jiangzhong City. She would slowly become a dazzling new star in the business world!
Qin Rumeng would probably never imagine that this little woman, whom she did not think highly of, would become the most dazzling presence in the capital!
..........
Ye Xunhuan returned to the company, but no sooner had he arrived than Qiu Ruoxi summoned him.
"Did Tang Yurou leave?"
"You knew?"
"I met Auntie after work yesterday!"
Seeing a dispirited and somewhat dejected Ye Xunhuan, Qiu Ruoxi felt an uncomfortable, sour feeling in her heart for some reason.
"Auntie told me she would take Tang Yurou away, whether I agreed to let her go or not!"
Upon hearing Qiu Ruoxi’s words, Ye Xunhuan slowly raised his head to look at her, "Why didn’t you tell me?"
"May I ask, what time did you come back last night?"
"And this morning?"
"Did you give me a chance to speak?"
Ye Xunhuan remained silent, realizing he had infuriated Qiu Ruoxi so much that he hadn’t given her a chance to speak.
"She’s already gone. The position of the director of the supervision department is now vacant. You can take that seat from now on!" Qiu Ruoxi said softly.
"If there’s nothing else, I’m going back!"
Saying this, Ye Xunhuan got up and made a move to leave.
Qiu Ruoxi opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but for some reason, she couldn’t utter a word.
After Ye Xunhuan left, Qiu Ruoxi murmured, "If I were taken away, would you act like this?"
Qiu Ruoxi didn’t know, didn’t understand why she suddenly cared so much about her place in Ye Xunhuan’s heart, even feeling uneasy seeing Ye Xunhuan’s listless appearance as he walked away.
The feeling was like someone trying to steal her favorite toy, feeling very unhappy and heartbroken!
Ye Xunhuan, upon returning to the office, directly took Tang Yurou’s former seat and stared blankly.
After a long while, Long Zu Puti approached with some documents. Seeing Ye Xunhuan sitting in Tang Yurou’s place, he looked around, puzzled, and asked, "Where’s Tang Yurou?"
"She left!" Ye Xunhuan lit a cigarette for himself and said, "She’s left this place."
"Left?" Long Zu Puti was taken aback, "She dumped you?"
Ye Xunhuan’s mouth twitched slightly, "How could she dump me? She went somewhere else!"
"That means she dumped you!" Long Zu Puti said lightly, "If a woman leaves, it usually means you two are done!"
"Marshal, you might as well marry me. Only I am truly devoted to you and won’t leave you!"
Ye Xunhuan was too lazy to explain, "What did you come here for?"
"I was looking for Tang Yurou. Now that she’s not here, there’s nothing needed!"
"I am the director now, you can talk to me about anything!"
"Tang Yurou really left, huh?" By then, Long Zu Puti started to believe Ye Xunhuan’s words!
"Why would I lie to you..."
"Marshal, watch your back!" Long Zu Puti suddenly cried out in alarm, his face immediately turning pale!
A bullet, carrying the threat of death, raced toward them, cutting through the air resistance from the window behind Ye Xunhuan!
