Yu Minglang took Xiao Qian out of his uncle’s office. Noticing Xiao Qian’s reaction, he felt something was amiss.

“Xiao Mei, you usually don’t speak so much.”

“Maybe I’m in a better mood today, so I said a bit more.”

She felt that being straightforward would better win the favor of her uncle, and she could more directly express her thoughts to him.

But she did speak bluntly, which was unlike Xiao Qian’s character. She shouldn’t have said those things.

It’s because her uncle was not only Yu Minglang’s major shareholder but also had a complicated relationship with herself. If counting generation-wise, her uncle would be her master.

Her uncle was the husband of her past life’s teacher, Professor Liu. They had been on and off for most of their lives. The teacher’s proudest disciple was Xiao Qian, so she knew a little about her teacher’s family.

The master often mentioned him, but Xiao Qian had only met him once in her previous life. It was in the hospital ward where their teacher was diagnosed with gynecological tumors and refused surgery. No matter how Xiao Qian and her fellow apprentices tried to persuade her, she just wouldn’t have the surgery.

She even showed a desperate face, wishing for an early death. Xiao Qian and her peers were tormented by their master.

At the crucial moment when the teacher was waiting for death, the legendary master appeared. To everyone’s surprise, he directly carried the stubborn teacher, who refused to go to the hospital, away.

Not having surgery? He knocked her out, and when she woke up, the surgery was already done. It was as simple and effective as that.

So, in Xiao Qian’s previous life memory, she had only met her master once, but he had left a deep impression on her.

Later, after the teacher’s surgery, her health declined. The legendary master stepped forward and asked for a remarriage. If Xiao Qian hadn’t been reborn, she might have witnessed the reconciliation of these two old people who had been quarreling for half their lives.

“Yu Minglang, what kind of person is your good brother, Lone Wolf?”

“A very outstanding man. He was about the same age as me when he left. He was very righteous and a genuine good man.”

“The poor parents’ hearts…” Xiao Qian turned back and looked at the main building standing in the sunlight.

Inside it, there was a father who hoped to be with his son. In a different way, he guarded his child’s wishes.

“Qian Bao, what’s wrong with your eyes?” Yu Minglang saw Xiao Qian’s eyes become red around the edges.

“Nothing, your uncle is a good person. He must treat you like his own child.”

“Then he is my stepfather, haha. There isn’t anyone in the company who hasn’t cursed him behind his back.”

“Have you cursed him too?”

“Uh, yes, when I first joined. Not anymore.”

“Now, the person they curse the most is you, right?” Xiao Qian said knowingly.

As they walked along, many people secretly glanced at them. A woman who could walk with the young boss must be worth a few extra looks.

Yu Minglang gave a dry laugh, admitting it by default.

“It’s just my temper. They’ll get used to it over time.”

It was precisely because of Yu Minglang’s iron-willed temper that he quickly led the company on the right track. He always gave his all in everything he did. “Xiao Qiang, do you think I should wear a mask when I go out? The people you offended won’t take revenge on me, will they?”

She knew about his deeds here, and Shi Yu had told her some of it, which was what her brother told him.

It was said that Yu Minglang racked his brains daily, thinking about how to outwit those stubborn antique dealers. Now that this little demon had grown up, his father and uncle, the two old demons, had become kind and compassionate living Buddhas in the eyes of other employees.

“Don’t worry, I’m not the kind of coward who can’t protect his wife. It’s just that…” Yu Minglang hesitated for a moment.

Xiao Qian stopped walking.

“What’s the matter? Just say it.”

“Xiao Mei, I found the person who called you. I didn’t make a direct decision.

Do you want to meet him?”

Yu Minglang had been thinking about it, and he believed the best approach was not tit-for-tat retaliation against his old friend, Zeng Rong. Such a method wouldn’t solve the problem at all.

He knew Zeng Rong’s endurance well. Hitting and scolding him would have no effect. Perhaps Zeng Rong even expected Yu Minglang to take revenge, thus reducing his guilt.

Instead of that, why not let his Xiao Mei personally confront Zeng Rong? The only way to make Zeng Rong realize how wrong his decision was is to show him how excellent Xiao Mei is and give him a heavy blow psychologically.

To deal with someone like Zeng Rong, saying he’s wrong a thousand times is not as good as letting him experience it himself. Yu Minglang was convinced that if his excellent Xiao Mei spoke with Zeng Rong just once, it would be enough to leave a lasting impression on him. This time, he would remember the terrible decision he made for the rest of his life.

“You can’t do it yourself, or you can’t bring yourself to, so you want me to clean up after him?” Xiao Qian looked at Yu Minglang askance.

“It’s not that… I just think, you’re affected by this, so you should decide whether to forgive him or not. I don’t want to take action; whatever I do, it won’t be effective. He knows me too well, just like I know him. You should handle it.”

A thousand praises from him wouldn’t compare to one encounter with Xiao Mei. As long as Zeng Rong could feel Xiao Mei’s excellence, he would certainly repent for his actions.

Xiao Qian nodded, “I understand. It’s up to me to handle this matter, but Xiao Qiang…”

“Yes?”

“You want me to untie his knot, so this treatment fee…”

Yu Minglang laughed awkwardly, “We’re getting engaged soon, don’t be too calculating. Your money is my money!”

He knew that Xiao Mei was a smart girl, and she knew what he was thinking.

Xiao Qian glanced at him with a smile, “Fine, you’re good at learning and using it. Tell me what the situation is.”

“Zeng Rong has been my friend for many years. He, Lone Wolf, and I were very close brothers. After Lone Wolf died, he struggled for a long time. So what he did against you this time was purely out of fear that I would end up like Lone Wolf.”

His methods were wrong, but his intentions were good.

“How did Liu Shuang die?” Xiao Qian asked.

“How did you know his name?”

“Your uncle introduced him to me.”

Carrying the memory of her past life and seeing the unseen side of her previous life from another perspective, Xiao Qian felt oppressed.

There was an undefinable melancholy that she couldn’t shake off.

That Lone Wolf Liu Shuang, who left forever due to saving someone, Xiao Qian had seen his pictures, not only at Xiao Qiang’s but also at her teacher’s house. The atheist teacher also worshipped his picture. Instead of superstition, it was the only spiritual sustenance for a mother who lost her child. Xiao Qian had even offered incense to Lone Wolf, so how could she not know?

He was gone, but the impact on his family and friends remained.
