Capítulo 852: Chapter 852: He Created a Life of Peace and Tranquility for Her
The same person who called was Ning Yichen.
On the phone, his deep voice carried a trace of disbelief, as if even he couldn’t believe it: “…During this time, Zhuo Yuwei has been racking his brains for the election, but very few people are willing to support him, and even fewer are willing to sponsor him. He actually suspected He Jingyao and privately got in touch with the notorious terrorist organization ‘Base’… I got this news by accident, and I wonder if He Jingyao’s trouble might be related to this organization…”
Zhixi’s hands trembled slightly: “Okay, I got it, thank you.”
“…I’ll keep an eye on this, and if there’s any news, I’ll inform you.” On the phone, Ning Yichen hesitated for a while but still offered a word of comfort, “You… don’t be too sad.”
Zhixi smiled: “I’m not sad.”
After the call ended, she stared blankly for a long time.
Until Uncle Li walked up to her.
“Uncle Li,” Zhixi gently began, “Has Jingyao… really gone bankrupt?”
Uncle Li was taken aback by her question and was momentarily stunned.
“Although he left the He Family, he couldn’t possibly be unprepared,” Zhixi pursed her lips, “Privately, has he done a lot? Is it because of him that Zhuo Yuwei can’t secure sponsorship?”
Uncle Li gave her a look and nodded silently: “Yes. Although the Young Master has been staying at home for over a month, he’s done a lot. In fact, He has shares in almost all the major domestic industries, and he wields considerable influence, making Zhuo Yuwei’s journey tough.” Thɪs chapter is updated by 𝗇𝗈𝗏𝖾𝗅•𝖿𝗂𝗋𝖾•𝗇𝖾𝗍
Zhixi smiled faintly, “I knew it…”
It turned out he had been deceiving her all along…
But Zhixi also understood that he just didn’t want her to worry about these things. After leaving HI, he deliberately created a peaceful life for her, keeping her away from all the conflicts. In fact, this past month had indeed been her happiest and most satisfying period.
Tears fell from her eyes involuntarily.
“Young Mistress…” Uncle Li looked worried.
Zhixi shook her head lightly, smiled, and said, “I’m fine… By the way, I want to take Xiaobao back to the old residence.”
Uncle Li was stunned, then overjoyed: “You’re willing to go back… That’s great!”
Zhixi smiled faintly: “There are some things I need to clear up. Also, ask Feng Qian to come along; I have something to ask him too.”
Uncle Li nodded and immediately went to prepare the car.
An hour later, Zhixi took Xiaobao to the old residence.
He Yirong was visibly emotional when he saw her and Xiaobao.
In the past few days, He Yirong had been hoping Zhixi would bring Xiaobao to stay at the old residence, but Zhixi refused to even see him. He Yirong knew Zhixi somewhat resented him, after all, Jingyao had… for saving him.
Thinking of this, He Yirong felt a pang in his heart.
He let Ziyi take Xiaobao to the room to play, then gently invited Zhixi to sit down.
Zhixi did not refuse. Looking at his aged and frail face, she softly asked, “Are you okay?”
He Yirong’s eyes reddened, and he shook his head: “I’m fine.”
After a moment of silence, he hoarsely uttered three words: “I’m sorry…”
Back when he found out Jingyao was not his son, He Yirong, though reluctant, still took back the shares held by He Jingyao without hesitation.
But when he was in trouble, Jingyao did not abandon him because of it.
