Song Yansheng was drunk, but his mind was still seventy percent clear, and a faint smile curled at the corners of his mouth as he gazed at the ceiling.

Fifteen years, he searched for a girl, and a girl’s heart, for fifteen years, and now waiting for such an answer, it shouldn’t be in vain, right?

He was very satisfied with everything he had now, he was very satisfied.

Taking a breath, he spoke, his voice drifting, a simple yet gentle sentence: "I await Nuannuan’s answer... with my entire life!"

...

That day, Yu Yao was uneasy because of that dream and insisted on going to Anshan to pray, despite Aunt Tong’s objections.

Yu Yao wasn’t feeling well these days, and now she wants to go up the mountain, she’s really a bit worried.

But Yu Yao was adamant, and instructed the servants not to meddle and call Song Yansheng.

Aunt Tong was helpless and had to agree.

Fortunately, the weather was good that day, it wasn’t too hot, the weather forecast said it would be cloudy turning to partly cloudy.

Aunt Tong was somewhat relieved.

On Anshan, Yu Yao first worshipped Buddha and finally asked for a divination sign, a middle sign, which made her frown.

She went to the backyard temple and found the abbot to interpret the sign for her. The abbot looked at it, gave a faint smile, and said: "The future is uncertain, the jade hidden in the stone who knows. One day a good craftsman clearly splits, the jade period comes peacefully."

Yu Yao frowned, politely nodded to the abbot: "Please master, enlighten me." 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

The abbot said: "Treasure is within the stone, few know about it, the benefactor only needs to be at ease, don’t care, don’t ask, clouds cover the moon yet it’s bright, clouds disperse and the moon appears, blessings and misfortunes coexist, none are fixed, let go, look beyond, and that’s it..."

Yu Yao solemnly sat there, bowed to the master, and when she came out, she looked at that sign.

The abbot told her to let go, look beyond, but how could she let go and look beyond.

After her husband had an accident, everything she experienced and endured remains vivid to this day.

In fifteen years, what she experienced and faced, how could others know?

Her husband already had an accident, she couldn’t let her son have an accident too.

She took a deep breath, reached out, and threw that sign into a simple trash bin outside the temple.

Then she softly said to Aunt Tong behind her: "Let’s go back!"

...

Shi Nuan called Shi Yuanbo before getting off work to inform him she would return to the Shi Family tonight.

Shi Yuanbo was naturally happy, saying he would arrange a car to pick Shi Nuan, and let her go directly after work.

Shi Nuan agreed.

After hanging up the phone, Shi Nuan turned and looked out the window.

TK Group was not far away, looking near, yet when reaching out, it felt far away.

At noon, she talked with Song Yansheng on the phone, seemingly pledging her life.

And she knew, to qualify as a woman standing next to Song Yansheng, she absolutely couldn’t be ordinary.

As she is now, she is very ordinary, but in the future, she will become excellent.

When one day in the future, their relationship becomes public, she hopes everyone who knows will set aside prejudices and at least have a thought.

"Actually, they are quite a match!"

"Shi Nuan is a very excellent girl!"

Taking a deep breath, Shi Nuan continued her work.

Tonight returning to the Shi Family, she has many things to face, cannot be careless.

Also, Shi Nuan hadn’t told Shi Yuanbo she planned to live at the Shi Family for a period.

Although Song Yansheng said it would be helpful to go back and stay a few days now, specifics depend on Shi Yuanbo’s attitude after going back.

Regarding this father, she had been very disappointed, in despair, and given up.

But in recent months, Shi Yuanbo’s attitude toward her changed, initially suspecting it was because of Song Yansheng.

But recently, she feels it’s not just that. If it were only due to fear or dread of Song Yansheng, he wouldn’t need to let her follow the Lishui Project, nor give her Shi Family, nor let her speak at the shareholders’ meeting.

Shi Nuan suddenly wondered if her father had discovered Li Guirong had someone outside?

But she shook her head, because even if her father found out Li Guirong had another man, he would only guard against and distance from Li Guirong, it wasn’t necessary to involve Shi Tianchao.

After all, her father’s desire for a son was so strong, she had seen it clearly over the years.

Unable to figure, Shi Nuan didn’t want to think more, regardless of why her father changed, being close to her father was all to her benefit.

...

Before leaving work that day, Shi Nuan received another call.

But this call wasn’t from Song Yansheng, it was from Chi Rui.
