The two were deeply in love and couldn't bear to part with each other.
Yi Feng was punished by law. After Cheng Lingqing cooperated with the investigation, he returned to China.
It seemed that life was gradually getting back on track.
"I... I'm going to take the postgraduate entrance exam!" Yi Pin said with a smile, looking at Shen Yu in front of him.
Shen Yu, who was in the middle of picking up food for Yi Pin, paused and burst out laughing. "Really?"
"Yeah. I think I need further study so that we can have more common topics!" Yi Pin grinned, with a beaming smile on his face.
Shen Yu's mouth curled up to his ears. He was all smiles.
"However... you have to wait for me!" Yi Pin continued eating, frowning slightly.
"Sure. I'll wait for you!" Shen Yu said, smiling happily.
"Why don't you just stay at home and rest today!" Shen Yu shrugged, with a faint smile on his lips.
"Come on, bro. Do you think I'm a young girl on maternity leave?" Yi Pin rolled his eyes at Shen Yu helplessly.
Shen Yu was amused by this remark and his mouth kept twitching upwards.
The two were sitting in Shen Yu's Ferrari, basking in the rising sun. It was very warm. The gentle sunlight shone on Shen Yu's long eyelashes, making his side face look extremely clean.
Shen Yu reached out his hand and held Yi Pin's tightly. Their fingers intertwined.
"Damn it. Watch the road!" Yi Pin pouted, but his heart was fluttering. He looked rather cold and charming.
Just then, Shen Yu's phone rang.
"Help me answer the phone!" Shen Yu said, smiling indulgently.
Yi Pin picked up the phone indifferently. Immediately, his face fell. "Oh, the goddess of your admiration is calling. You're really... full of charm and having endless affairs!"
Seeing Yi Pin's jealous look, Shen Yu sighed helplessly. "What are you talking about? I don't have such things!"
"Really?" Yi Pin sneered. He answered the phone and turned on the speaker.
"A Yu, I've landed. I've arrived safely. Just calling to let you know!" Cheng Lingqing's gentle voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Okay!" Shen Yu smiled. "Then go and rest quickly!"
The two simply greeted each other and chatted about some trivial things. Suddenly, Yi Pin kissed Shen Yu on the cheek with a smacking sound.
Cheng Lingqing on the other end was a bit shocked and probed, "A Yu, are you with someone?"
Yi Pin scratched Shen Yu's hand and raised his eyebrows.
Shen Yu immediately smiled. "Ah... I'm with my lover!"
"Lover? You... are you in a relationship?" Cheng Lingqing was shocked and asked in a panicked voice.
"Yeah!" Shen Yu smiled faintly, with a look of indulgence on his face.
Yi Pin finally pouted in satisfaction and grinned.
"Yi Pin, are you made of vinegar? Is it really necessary?" Shen Yu said with a mischievous smile, though his words sounded like a reproach.
"Humph. What? Do you feel uncomfortable with my behavior because you have a crush on her?" Yi Pin sneered twice, put away the phone and started watching videos.
"When did I have a crush on her?" Shen Yu smiled helplessly, looking a bit confused.
"You know it in your heart!" Yi Pin frowned and said helplessly. "If you didn't have a crush on her, why would you get involved in this matter?"
Yi Pin sounded very confident and looked angry.
Shen Yu reached out and ruffled Yi Pin's hair. He smiled and said, "If I really liked her, there would be no chance for you!"
Yi Pin frowned and continued to scroll through his phone impatiently.
Shen Yu dropped Yi Pin off downstairs of his company. He watched as Yi Pin stormed in angrily, looking determined. He didn't turn back or say goodbye.
"Hey, Yi Pin!" Shen Yu grabbed Yi Pin's elbow, leaned close to his ear and smiled. "Since I've said that the person I like is you, it will only be you. There will be no one else. In the future, I'll prove what I've said today with my actions!"
After saying that, Shen Yu turned around and left. Yi Pin stood there alone, looking a bit dazed.
Seeing everyone in the company greeting him respectfully, Yi Pin walked to the chairman's office and knocked on the door.
"What's up?" His father looked at him in confusion and smiled. He was a bit shocked. Since Yi Pin started helping in the company, his father hadn't seen him come to find him on his own initiative even once. Yi Pin said it wasn't good for the image.
It was really rare for him to come today, so his father was naturally a bit excited.
"Chairman, hello. I'd like to resign!" Yi Pin said coldly and bowed.
"What did you say?" His father said angrily. He had finally managed to get this young man to help in the company, but now he was saying he wanted to leave.
"I said I'm going to resign. The company is now back on track. I can't help much here. Moreover, I'm going to take the postgraduate entrance exam. I simply don't have time to work!" Yi Pin shrugged and smiled faintly.
His father stood there stunned, looking a bit embarrassed.
"Do you know how many people are dying to get into my company? You're good. You don't even care about the empire I've built!"
Yi Pin was taken aback by these words and pouted.
"I know you think you're doing this for my own good. But this is the empire you've built. I also want to build my own, instead of being a parasite. Besides, I've always known what I want and what I'm pursuing. So, I hope you can support me instead of always doubting my decisions. This is my own life. I'm the one who has to live it. Even if I end up in failure one day, I'll be willing to accept it. Why can't you just listen to me and trust me?" Yi Pin rambled on.
His father stood there stunned and didn't say anything more. He just stared straight at Yi Pin.
Finally, he smiled with relief. "My son has grown up!"
After saying that, he took the resignation letter and couldn't help smiling. There were glistening tears in his eyes.
Most of the time, maybe we can't be perfect, so we can only try to be our true selves.
"Dad, don't be sad. Maybe you can find a good young man in the company to inherit your position. Or you can have a second child with that vixen!" Yi Pin glanced at his father. Seeing his sad look, he felt a bit sorry for him and couldn't help comforting him.
"What nonsense are you talking about? What vixen?" His father was so angry that he picked up a document and was about to throw it at him. But Yi Pin caught it with his hand. "Please be kind, Your Majesty. Your subject will take his leave."
After saying that, Yi Pin ran away in a flash, smiling as he walked on the road.
When you're happy, everything looks beautiful. For example, an unknown flower by the roadside, a mushroom cloud in the sky, or a kind smile from a passerby.
He picked up his phone and sent a message to Shen Yu: "I've resigned. I'm going to the school now!"
Then he looked up at the sky. The white clouds were drifting leisurely, the sky was blue, and the leaves by the roadside were swaying.
There were all kinds of passersby.
It seemed that everything had become extremely clear.
