“Qianqian, don’t cry…” Shi Annuo coached, his lips close to her ear, creating a small echo, “Good girl! I will always be with you.”
Han Qianqian didn’t even know how long she had been crying, until she gradually stopped when her tears were all spent.
Shi Annuo sat silently on the sofa, holding her for a long time in the same position, neither of them breaking the silence of the moment.
Until the sound of a phone ringing broke the silence.
Han Qianqian picked up the phone, not sure what the person on the other end said, she abruptly stood up: “No, how is that possible?”
Shi Annuo had been looking at her tensely all the while, and as soon as she hung up the phone, he immediately asked, “What happened? What’s wrong?”
With a flame of anger and resentment in her eyes, Han Qianqian closed her eyes momentarily before saying, “That bastard is at the company’s headquarters today, and he demanded Uncle Zhao to produce the financial books of the company for the past few years.”
The Uncle Zhao Han Qianqian mentioned was Han Wen’s most efficient assistant; he had made the phone call just now.
Shi Annuo frowned, considering: “Qianqian, given the current circumstances, we can only let him into the company…”
Han Qianqian cut him off: “No way! There’s no way he’s getting in!”
Shi Annuo looked helplessly at her, pulling her into his arms, burying his head in the crook of her neck as if trying to hold her tight.
But she pushed Shi Annuo away, her tone cold, “I have something to do!”
She turned, and without a moment of hesitation, she left.
Shi Annuo silently watched her leave, though his heart was in turmoil.
She hadn’t said anything, nor had he, yet he knew what was on her mind, he wasn’t a fool.
That’s why he hadn’t gone to the company today. He didn’t want to see her negotiating with his older brother.
Why didn’t she believe that he could protect her? Why did she only think of his older brother? Was he, Shi Annuo, really that inferior?
With a loud “bang”, Shi Annuo viciously kicked the tea table in the room like he was struck by lightning.
The tea utensils and broken glass from the tea table scattered all over the room.
Filled with rage and violence, Shi Annuo yelled out, “Ahh!!”

After becoming pregnant, Song Qinghuan didn’t attend class and rarely went out, since the doctor had told her the baby was in an unstable position and it was best for her to rest at home.
The day after her brother Yan Pingdan came, Shi Yuhuan’s aunt Jin Lin also returned. Having these two people around made Song Qinghuan feel that her days at home were going by rather quickly. 𝑛𝘰𝑣𝑝𝑢𝑏.𝘤𝑜𝘮
Jin Lin normally only returned to the country for one reason — to ask for money from Shi Yuhuan. She would only return when she needed money and seek Shi Yuhuan out for it.
Before, whenever she asked for money, Shi Yuhuan would give it to her without hesitation.
However, this time for some reason, Shi Yuhuan refused to give her any more money. No matter what she said or did, Shi Yuhuan wouldn’t give her a penny more than what was needed for her to live on.
Shi Yuhuan’s refusal meant she had very little money, and although she didn’t dare to make a scene with Shi Yuhuan, she bothered Song Qinghuan every day.
As protective as Yan Pingdan was over his sister, he obviously wouldn’t tolerate Jin Lin bullying his pregnant sister this way. As a result, he had quarreled with Jin Lin countless times.
While Jin Lin wasn’t afraid of Yan Pingdan, she was afraid of one other person — Li Chengyun.
After Li Chengyun arrived, she avoided him like the plague, escaping as far as she could whenever she saw him.
