"Xiaochun, I'm sorry. Forgive me for not telling you this until now."
Jin Shuwen watched as Zhou Manchun and Jin Yumo acknowledged each other. She couldn't help but wipe her tears. Yip Chun Wen quietly moved to her side and pressed Jin Shuwen's head onto his shoulder with his large warm palms. His strong arms hugged her tightly.
Jin Shuwen sniffled, but she was happy for Jin Beisen and his family.
The villa was filled with a warm and touching atmosphere, but the atmosphere in Zuo Shi Chuan Garden was oppressive.
Yu Xin had not seen Zhou Manchun for three whole days. Tonight, he refused to sleep and kept making noises about seeing Zhou Manchun. Yu Chen's head hurt from the noise, so he sent the child to Auntie Li's room and asked her to sleep with Xiao Xin while he hid in his room to drink.
Yu Chen had lost contact with the outside world for three whole days and had not been to YC Corporation. Pei Haoran was extremely anxious and visited Zuo Shi Chuan Garden late at night.
Auntie Li had just coaxed Yu Xin to sleep when she heard the doorbell ring. She hurriedly ran to open the door and saw Pei Haoran standing at the door with a frown.
"Assistant Pei?" Auntie Li looked at Pei Haoran in shock. It was already past 11 am. Why was Assistant Pei here?
"Auntie Li, is Mr. Yu in?" Pei Haoran asked anxiously.
"Mhm, he's in his room."
Pei Haoran walked into the villa without another word and arrived at Yu Chen's room with Auntie Li accompanying him.
But the door was locked. Pei Haoran turned the doorknob twice and knocked on the door, but there was no response.
"Auntie Li, are you sure Mr. Yu is in there?" Pei Haoran frowned and felt uneasy.
"Yes. Ever since Mr. Yu came back from the US, he had been locking himself in his room. He only came out this evening, and Xiao Xin was crying. He asked me to take care of her."
"What exactly is going on?" Pei Haoran's handsome brows showed a touch of worry as he asked in confusion.
"I heard President Yu's wife got divorced." Auntie Li said timidly. This was only her guess. That day, when Jin Beisen rushed into the Yu Family, Auntie Li hid in the kitchen and listened to their argument. She could guess why Yu Chen was so desperate.
"Auntie Li, is there a spare key at home?" Pei Haoran asked decisively. An ominous feeling arose in his heart.
Auntie Li furrowed her brows and thought about it. She vaguely recalled that the spare key was placed in a cabinet in the living room. Zhou Manchun had mentioned it to her at that time.
Auntie Li rubbed her hands on her pajamas and said anxiously. "Assistant Pei, wait for me. I will go and look for it."
Pei Haoran stood at the door and did not give up. He kept knocking on the door. "President! President! Are you in there? Something happened to the company. "
Yu Chen had already heard the commotion outside. He sat on the ground and drank wine. The wine bottles were piled up all over the floor. He wished he could get himself completely drunk like this, but the heavens did not grant him his wish. He always drank until he fell asleep, and when he woke up, he would drink and smoke again.
Yu Chen had never been so depressed in his life. Even when Anya Liu committed suicide, Yu Chen did not behave like this. At that time, Yu Chen only wanted to find out the truth behind his mother's suicide. That was why he chose to be a prosecutor.
Recalling the past that was stained with blood, Yu Chen picked up the wine bottle and smashed it on the floor. The yellow liquid flowed out and soaked the expensive solid wood floor.
Pei Haoran leaned against the door to listen to the commotion inside. Suddenly, he heard the sound of glass breaking. He anxiously knocked on the door. "President, I know you are inside. Open the door. I have something to say to you."
Yu Chen did not want to talk to anyone. He felt like he was abandoned by the whole world. First, Anya Liu abandoned him and committed suicide. Then, Zhou Manchun abandoned him and reunited with Jin Beisen. He had nothing now. What was the point of living?
He might as well just die and be done with it!
Yu Chen founded YC Group precisely for Zhou Manchun. He wanted to give Zhou Manchun a strong backer. Yu Chen was indifferent to fame and fortune. His personality was very similar to Anya Liu. He would never fight with anyone in his life. Only Zhou Manchun was the one he wanted to fight with Jin Beisen the most.
With Zhou Manchun gone, what was the point of guarding YC Group to the death?
Yu Chen suddenly missed their days in America. They lived in Manhattan and had a villa that was decorated exactly the same as this one. Back then, Zhou Manchun was by Yu Chen's side every day. Yu Chen always thought they had a future together and they had plenty of time together …
Auntie Li hurriedly ran up with a bunch of keys. There were too many doors in the house, so she didn't know which one was the key to this room. She handed the keys to Pei Haoran, and he tried them one by one.
After trying more than ten keys, Pei Haoran finally opened the door. The room was filled with the choking smell of smoke and the strong stench of alcohol. Pei Haoran reached out and fanned away the pungent air.
The master bedroom was pitch-black. Yu Chen didn't turn on the lights. Pei Haoran shone his phone and finally found Yu Chen's figure in a corner.
"President," Pei Haoran called out in an excited tone.
Yu Chen didn't respond. It was as though he didn't hear anything. His eyes were dull as he stared blankly at a certain spot. In his hands was a light pink woman's nightgown.
Pei Haoran turned on the lights and walked over. The dazzling lights made it difficult for Yu Chen to adjust. He furrowed his brows deeply, shielded his eyes with his hands, and pursed his thin lips.
"President, why are you doing this? Do you know how anxious I was when you weren't here for the past three days? "Pei Haoran's heart twitched as he looked at Yu Chen's dispirited face.
It had only been a few days, and the gentle Yu Chen had actually turned into this. His face was ashen, and stubble had grown on his chin. He raised his head, and his eyes inadvertently swept over Pei Haoran's eyes. The smile on his face was cold.
"Haoran, it's you." Yu Chen looked at Pei Haoran calmly with indifference between his brows.
"President, I'm begging you. If you don't do this, what will happen to YC Group?" Pei Haoran was burning with anxiety. It wasn't easy to establish YC Group. He had followed Yu Chen for the past three years and personally witnessed how many people Yu Chen had to suffer to get to where he was today. His heart ached for his president.
Yu Chen's eyes narrowed, and a sharp glint flashed across his eyes. He laughed coldly. "Hehe …"
