The enchanting duke's only wife

Chapter 127 Despair (3)
"In name? It turns out that the actual master is no longer me." Zhong Yan nodded, "Then, let's leave it to the actual master. I, the nominal one, will take a back seat to the second line."

"Father, you know that's not what we mean..." Seeing Zhong Yan getting up to leave, Zhong Xiu hastily pulled him back.

"Xiaoxiu, although you are my daughter. However, to provoke Ye Jue, regardless of whether it has anything to do with the current situation, is your own fault. Unlike her mother, she will fight back if she endures enough. If you If you don't pay attention to the Duke behind her and the flame castle that is now firing at Zhong, then it will only be an unpredictable result in the end." Zhong Yan softened his tone, after all, the child did not have any fault, "Protect you yourself."

"So, are you abandoning me? Again!" Zhong Xiu grabbed Zhong Yan's arm tightly, "For Ye Jue who doesn't care about the Zhong family at all!"

"You are all my daughters, and I feel guilty in my heart. So I can't justify a certain party. Therefore, I can't help you." Zhong Yan said, his eyes were full of remorse, "Everything is wrong. It all started with me, so I will voluntarily pay for what I did."

After finishing speaking, he suddenly shook off Zhong Xiu's hand, and strode forward to open the office door.

Outside the door were several of Li Juan's bodyguards standing upright and her bodyguard who looked extremely thin.Zhong Yan suppressed the doubts in his heart and didn't want to explore any more.His heart was tired, and he just wanted to spend the rest of the time thinking about that person.

"Let's go." Zhong Yan uttered two words in a low voice, and finally just walked out of the place where he had worked for decades with the bodyguards around him.

It was late autumn in Mengcheng and suddenly a gust of cold wind blew off the golden leaves all over the ground, adding a touch of bleakness.

Zhong Yan shrank his neck unconsciously, his back was a little lonely among the flying leaves.This man, who had been in charge of the wind and rain in Mengcheng for decades, left sadly in such a scene.Zhong's employees silently looked at the departing boss, feeling a little desperate for the company they had worked for for a long time.

They didn't know the reason why Zhong Yan left, but such Zhong Yan finally made them disappointed in such a big company that they firmly believed in.

These days, Li Juan's arbitrariness aside, Zhong Xiu spends as she pleases by relying on her status as the young lady.And Zhong Yan wasn't there, so they could only swallow their anger and watch the company decline step by step, waiting for Zhong Yan to come back.

Now that Zhong Yan has given up on the Zhong family, why is there any need to stay?

Li Juan gritted her teeth and watched the man leave, suppressing the pain in her heart, unwilling to admit that she had been expecting Zhong Yan's affection for so many years.Even when he knew that the woman he loved was Ye Aiqi from beginning to end.

"Mom..." Zhong Xiu didn't seem to have recovered, thinking about what Zhong Yan said just now, "What should I do? That Duke is really powerful?"

"So what?" Li Juan said viciously, without her usual gentle look, "Xiaoxiu, now that the Zhong family has reached this point, even if Zhong Yan doesn't give us an inheritance, there is nothing to give to that Ye. Jue! You have to know that barefoot people are not afraid of people wearing shoes. North Korea is so poor that they are not afraid of the United States. What do they rely on! It’s not the nuclear weapons, but they have nothing to lose.”

Zhong Xiu was taken aback for a moment, she didn't expect her mother to suddenly show such bitter hatred towards Zhong Shi: "But, Zhong Shi is like this now...do we not care?"

"Do you care about Zhong Yan like that? He doesn't care about anyone with the surname Zhong, what are we making trouble with people of different surnames! No, your surname is also Zhong. Why, do you want to clean up this mess?" Li Juan smiled sarcastically, "I Tell you, have you lived in the Zhong family these years, do you think you are the fate of the eldest lady? Let me tell you, no matter whether the blood on your body belongs to the Zhong family or not, the only reliable things in this world are money and power. Growing things requires a family background, we don't have this family background, we can only rely on money! Do you understand!"

Zhong Xiu nodded, but his expression was stiff.

That time she wanted to get close to Xu Nuo, it would be a lie to say that she didn't have the slightest sense of utilitarianism.But it was mainly because she had seen Xu Nuo's photo, and knew that this wealthy and powerful Duke was also an excessively beautiful man.

If it was an ugly old man, she would never do the same thing.

"Okay, okay, let's go. Zhong's mess, let it run its course." Li Juan urged Zhong Xiu to leave, and she left Zhong Yan's office without looking back.

The respectful security guards outside the door responded with a low "Sister Juan" and followed behind her.Zhong Xiu was standing in the middle of the office, and for the first time felt that her mother who had raised her for more than 20 years was like a stranger.

She didn't know anything about what happened to Ye Jue while he was sleeping soundly.The heroine at the center of the vortex is the one who is best protected.

"A Jue, it will be fine." In the haze, that familiar gentle voice exhaled warm breath in her ear, repeating it over and over again, soothing her restless heart.Take it easy and worry about nothing.will take care of everything.

The happiest thing in the world is to be able to embrace each other in life and share the same hole in death.Someone said so.

But as far as the promise is concerned, what you see when you open your eyes in the morning is not the glare of the sun, the ceiling, or the messy bed, but Ye Jue who is sleeping soundly beside him... Even if her skin may change because of a night of sleep, Her face is dry, her lips are chapped, and her hair is messy, but no matter she is beautiful or ugly, haggard or not, she is his most cherished person.

"Morning, slob." Ye Jue, who rarely woke up earlier than promised, relied on his "feat" to sleep directly from the first afternoon to the next morning, looked at sleepy Xu Xu with a proud face, and laughed arrogantly.

"Morning." Xu Nuo smiled and hugged her, and smoothly stuffed her head into his arms.

"I'm suffocated!" Ye Jue struggled, trying to escape from his arms.

"Don't worry." Xu Nuo whispered, "Trust us."

He didn't say trust me, but trust us.Believe in the strength of both of them.
