Faced with Yan Yu’s obvious provocation, if it were Jas’s usual temperant, he would certainly not tolerate it.
But at this mont, he couldn’t afford to pay attention to Yan Yu in front of him.
His heart thundered violently: Because of Ben Shaming!
He hadn’t expected that Ben Shaming had already gone to Yan Jian’s side...
The fact that Catherine deliberately sought cooperation with Yan Jian, he knew, and he didn’t mind too much. Such matters stem from a woman’s pettiness, and he was confident that he could control Catherine firmly, ensuring she wouldn’t have the chance to play any tricks with Yan Jian.
Besides, he harbored a little bit of pettiness himself... he hoped Yan Jian would be jealous.
But he would never have thought that Little Ben had also ended up at Yan Jian’s side.
And Little Ben, to so extent, was not a person he could completely control.
The more he thought about it, the more frightened he beca; he stood up and stared coldly at Yan Yu: "No matter what, I must thank you for bringing this news today. Whatever you wanted to say, I believe you’ve said it all, so please leave first. This is my office, and I have other things to attend to."
Yan Yu carefully observed the expression on Jas’s face.
"Mr. Fude, I must warn you, no matter what you want to do, or have already done, if any harm cos to my younger sister because of it, every mber of the Tang Family will not let you off!"
.
Jas narrowed his eyes, watching Yan Yu’s back disappear through the office door, and promptly pulled out his phone to dial Ben Shaming’s number.
Without preamble, he asked, "Little Ben, where are you?"
Ben Shaming was taken aback by the question, glanced up at Yan Jian who was bent over drawing, and hurriedly stepped outside to answer, "Uh, I’m outside."
Jas took a deep breath: "Outside? Where?"
Indeed, Little Ben in this matter was no longer the Little Ben he once knew. The Little Ben of the past would have given him the exact location, and wouldn’t have used such a vague term like "outside" to fool him.
Since Little Ben answered in this way, it was already indirectly proving that Little Ben was deliberately concealing from him.
After more than fifteen years of relying on each other, is there anything between them that needs such deliberate concealnt and avoidance?
He lowered his voice: "No matter where you are, co back, now!"
Ben Shaming clutched the phone, unable to help but frown.
Cold wind swirling with dead leaves brushed past him, scraping by his cheeks. Like thin blades of danger, almost fatal.
The killer’s instinct told him that Jas wouldn’t have gotten angry with him for no reason like this. Although it wasn’t an explosive anger, this suppressed fury alard him even more.
He thought, perhaps his actions had finally been exposed and known to Jas.
He narrowed his eyes, glanced back into the window.
Upstairs was Catherine, downstairs was Tang Yanjian.
If soone had betrayed his secret to Jas, slandering him, it couldn’t escape those two foolish won.
His gaze lingered briefly on Yan Jian, then swiftly returned to Catherine upstairs.
He was convinced that Tang Yanjian wouldn’t uncover his identity this quickly; the likelihood was greater with Catherine.
His secret battle with Catherine was longer compared to Tang Yanjian. From France, it started five years ago.
He put the phone back in his pocket, his dark gaze like two long serpents silently piercing through the glass, rising to the second floor, and darting towards Catherine in the office!
.
Ben Shaming returned to the Fude Group.
There was so lingering concern in his heart.
Ultimately worried... Jas might one day part ways with him because of a woman.
He carefully knocked on the door, holding his breath as he walked into Jas’s office.
Within the barren mountains and lean waters, Jas sat quietly with his pair of deep blue eyes.
His heart inexplicably tightened in pain, quickly stepping forward: "You’re looking for ?"
At this mont, he suddenly felt that all his previous worries were not important; at this mont, he even hoped Jas would shout at him.
Shout it out, and Jas’s heart might feel better; he wouldn’t seem so lonely amidst this barren landscape, right?
Only he knew the pain truly hidden in Jas’s heart.
Jas ca into this world, not as a product of blessing and anticipation, but rely a sche — by then, Yifan had long been separated from Annie for many years, only lacking a divorce certificate. Yifan’s marriage with Annie was a family alliance, devoid of love, and such conflicts beca irreparable when Yifan t Huangfu Xi’an.
Annie, reluctant to divorce, even proposed an almost stringent condition: she asked her husband to stay calm, suggesting he might detach from temporary infatuation, hence she required her husband to ’cool off’ the divorce for five years. If, after five years, her husband still couldn’t let go of Huangfu Xi’an, then she would willingly step aside.
