Chapter 71: Chapter 71 Holding Her Like a Child, Not Letting Go

“Is this… what Shaochen meant?” Ye Shu stared fixedly at Guan Jiu.

That recent phone call, Guan Jiu must have made it to Shaochen, right?

Guan Jiu hesitated for a moment, then nodded. “Yes, the young master actually cares a lot about Miss Ye.”

Ye Shu’s cheeks flushed slightly.

She wasn’t ungrateful; Shaochen was almost favoritism in helping her.

Whether it was out of a man’s pride or for some other reason.

...

She should be grateful.

Ye Shu reached out to Guan Jiu, “Give me your phone, I need to call him.”

Guan Jiu glanced at the shattered phone on the ground and frowned, then handed his phone to Ye Shu.

Then, he crouched down, picked up the broken phone from the ground, and removed the sim card, “I will buy you a new phone, very quickly.”

Ye Shu nodded.

Then, she found Shaochen’s number from Guan Jiu’s contacts and was about to dial.

Suddenly, a young figure rushed in.

“Sis, why didn’t you answer my call?”

“My phone just broke,” Ye Shu said with slightly furrowed brows, looking at Ye Zifeng’s anxious face.

Ye Zifeng stepped forward, grasping her hand, his eyes filled with unbearable pain.

“Sis, after dad left, I know all the hardships you’ve endured. You care about me, I know that too,” Ye Zifeng took a deep breath, suddenly raised his eyes, and looked deeply at her, “You want me to go abroad because you don’t want me to see those scenes that would distress me, right?”

Ye Shu’s heart trembled suddenly, her gaze shifted out through the floor-to-ceiling window.

A psychiatric hospital special vehicle was parked outside, Wen Meilan was being lifted onto it.

Ye Zifeng must have seen it on his way here too.

Ye Shu lowered her head, biting her lip tightly, not knowing how to explain this unbelievable matter to him.

“Sis, I just realized, being by your side brings you so much trouble and pain,” Ye Zifeng said like a child who hadn’t grown up.

Holding Ye Shu’s hand tightly to his lips.

A muffled sob caught in his throat.

“Sis, since it’s like this, I will follow your arrangements and study abroad,” Ye Zifeng said, already starting to weep quietly.

Ye Shu’s nose tingled, her forehead touching his, wanting to explain everything to him.

But, what flashed through her mind was what Shaochen had said at the top of the Sangjiang Port mountain road—Ye Zifeng is an adult!

Even though she always saw Ye Zifeng as a child, he is ultimately a grown man who must face life’s hardships alone in the future.

She shouldn’t selfishly keep him by her side.

Studying abroad, for Ye Zifeng, is the best option.

Whether he misunderstood the hidden reasons behind going abroad or not, one thing Ye Zifeng did hit right to her core.

She indeed didn’t want Ye Zifeng to witness too much of the ugly internal family strife.

This struggle was just beginning, and in the future, more ugliness would be revealed.

Ye Zifeng leaving this place was indeed a good choice.

Ye Shu gently stroked his forehead, her eyes and brows tinted with a soft smile, warm and notably gentle.

“Zifeng, you’ve grown up, and I’m really happy for you. Take care of yourself abroad.”

Ye Zifeng’s heart sank.

Even though this was the expected outcome, deep down he hoped that Ye Shu would ask him to stay.

He hugged Ye Shu tightly, like a child, nodding over and over.

Xiao Jian’s jaw pressed against her shoulder, feeling somewhat uncomfortably sharp.

Ye Shu’s nose tingled, tears welling up in her eyes.

Yet, she stubbornly pulled at a smile on her face, refusing to let herself cry.
