Chapter 333 - 307: Solution (Monthly Ticket 1250+ Update)
“How much she truly cares for me is between her and me; you don’t have the right to interfere like this. Zeng Rong, your actions really disappointed me!” Yu Minglang said firmly.
“You can hate me as much as you want. When I did it, I knew there would be consequences like this.” Zeng Rong didn’t try to argue, he even seemed calm.
When Yu Minglang arrived, he had thought of a thousand ways to beat Zeng Rong, but when he saw the neatly packed suitcase on the ground, he felt indescribable desolation in his heart.
He thought of how they had been through life and death together, and how Zeng Rong had put aside his own work to help him during this time.
Zeng Rong could have chosen not to come, but there were many unresolved issues within the Yu Clan that needed to be handled by someone trusted, so he volunteered.
Yu Minglang also realized… Zeng Rong was a victim.
Feeling Yu Minglang’s gaze on his leg, Zeng Rong gave a bitter smile.
“My knee has water buildup, bone membrane inflammation, and old injuries that hurt when it’s rainy or cloudy. These are all left from our time at the old unit. Outsiders only see our glory, but who knows how much we’ve suffered? These pretty girls, drawn to us by their admiration, think we have a mysterious past. But how much genuine care can they give us?”
Rong Yuan always felt that Xiao Qian wasn’t truly sincere towards Ming Lang.
“My Xiao Mei is not the kind of person you think she is.”
“When Lone Wolf introduced his fiancee to us, did you think she was that kind of person?”
“You acted this way towards my Xiao Mei because of… Lone Wolf’s fiancee’s incident?” Yu Minglang seemed to understand something.
Yu Minglang and Rong Yuan had a mutual good brother, nicknamed Lone Wolf.
They all had a close relationship, but Lone Wolf had gone to a place called Eternity.
Lone Wolf was originally about to get married, and had booked a wedding photoshoot with his fiancee. But at the last minute, he received a call from his unit saying that he couldn’t go. When they were in the old unit, their work was hectic, and overtime was common.
It was similar to Yu Minglang’s current work, constantly working overtime. At that time, Lone Wolf’s fiancee got angry.
Lone Wolf had a fight with his fiancee that day, and as a result, he was absentminded the whole day, leading to a mistake at work, and he lost his life.
Lone Wolf died in Zeng Rong’s arms, which had a huge impact on him.
So when he saw Xiao Qian arguing with Yu Minglang because of his busy work, Zeng Rong thought of that heart-wrenching incident and called Xiao Qian.
Unexpectedly, it almost turned into a huge mistake.
Facing Yu Minglang’s question, Zeng Rong didn’ t answer directly.
Instead, he said with difficulty.
“Before Lone Wolf’s body turned cold, his fiancee married someone else with half of his insurance money. Couldn’t she have waited for two years, just…”
This incident was a huge blow to all of them.
His fiancee insisted on breaking up, and no one knew that Lone Wolf’s departure would be eternal.
Yu Minglang’s recent state was so similar to Lone Wolf’s back then; both were men deeply in love, both had busy jobs, and Xiao Qian happened to be a woman who was particularly reserved in expressing her emotions.
Her conversations with Yu Minglang were usually brief, and she rarely revealed her personal feelings. To others, it seemed that Yu Minglang was head over heels for Xiao Qian, but she didn’t love him at all.
Yu Minglang was injured while protecting the people, not because he was distracted. But Zeng Rong had already made up his mind and lumped their experiences together, calling Xiao Qian immediately.
“My Xiao Mei is not that kind of woman. If she were, she wouldn’t have broken up with me. And it’s because of this incident that she almost got hurt. You almost killed her!”
“I did it, and I’ll take responsibility. Whatever you want to do is up to you. I’ve been waiting for you these days, knowingyou’d find out.”
With the weight off his chest, he felt relieved; he was always forthright, but even he didn’t know the right or wrong of this particular incident. He felt that at heart he wasn’t wrong, but it always felt uncomfortable. Now that Yu Minglang had found out, it was more like a release.
Looking at the suitcase on the ground, Zeng Rong sighed.
“It’s okay if you hate me. I did make a mistake, but I just can’t bear to let go, especially…”
Indescribable attachment, this is the regret of parting with an old friend after so many years.
Yu Minglang couldn’t hate this Rong Yuan.
Just as Xiao Qian had deduced before, Zeng Rong’s starting point wasn’t to cause destruction; he just wanted to protect Yu Minglang in his way, but he didn’t realize that this method itself was wrong.
Yu Minglang is a rare talent, capable and smart; he will eventually shine brightly one day. Zeng Rong doesn’t want a woman who doesn’t seem to care about Yu Minglang to destroy him.
Zeng Rong doesn’t want to lose another brother, even if he’s already leaving this place. In his heart, he still considers himself a member here.
Choosing a busy man like Yu Minglang means enduring immense hardship, and not every woman is able to tolerate or withstand that.
In Zeng Rong’s eyes, Xiao Qian clearly couldn’t bear the hardship and couldn’t be Yu Minglang’s virtuous helper, let alone a woman who could endure loneliness.
She was too delicate, too haughty, and too similar to Lone Wolf’s ex-fiancee.
If a girl like her can’t stand loneliness or does something to hurt Yu Minglang, how many people would suffer the consequences?
Yu Minglang now holds the livelihoods of thousands of people. He must lead the huge Yu Clan through a corporate transformation, and this young man should have a brighter future. That’s why Rong Yuan doesn’t mind being the bad guy once.
Zeng Rong didn’t regret it when he did it, and he wasn’t even afraid that Yu Minglang would take revenge on him.
After all, he had already lost the most important thing in his life and wasn’t afraid of losing more.
But today, after Xiao Qian and Yu Minglang worked together to resolve the kidnapping incident, Zeng Rong felt uncomfortable. His subconscious told him that this time, he seemed to be in the wrong.
Xiao Qian wasn’t what he imagined; she cared about Yu Minglang and wasn’t a troublesome woman. She was intelligent and brave, resourceful and, more importantly, in love with Minglang.
Yu Minglang narrowed his eyes as he quickly thought about how to deal with this issue.
He could beat Zeng Rong.
He could also think of various ways to retaliate against him.
Report him, harass him, all sorts of things.
But none of that seemed right.
He always felt that the most important issue hadn’t been resolved, and Zeng Rong, a mentally strong man, wouldn’t care about such things.
Suddenly, Yu Minglang thought of a good solution. Only this way could fundamentally solve this seemingly unsolvable problem.
How to be fair to Xiao Mei while still upholding his principles? The intelligent Yu Minglang already had the answer.
