Li Industrial Park, the new office building of Tianyun International, top floor, forty-eighth floor.
Vice President’s Office.
The office is very spacious, about eighty square ters, but the decor is very simple.
Apart from a sofa set against the wall near the entrance and a coffee table, there are only two rectangular mahogany desks by the window.
At this mont, Ye Huan is sitting on the sofa, looking very relaxed.
Zhang Huimin is sitting on his lap, facing him, massaging his shoulders and neck with great concentration.
"Sister Zhang, sotis... I really find it strange."
"As a woman, you’re not only beautiful, tall, and have a good personality, but you’re also talented in many ways."
"How are other won supposed to live?"
Ye Huan closed his eyes in enjoynt, feeling much of the gloom in his heart dissipate.
"Don’t talk nonsense." Zhang Huimin’s charming face turned red, and she spat lightly.
"I’m not talking nonsense, it’s all true."
"You’re beautiful, empathetic, gentle and sensible, knowledgeable..."
"And, your work abilities are excellent, and your massage skills are much better than those professional therapists."
Hearing Ye Huan’s words, Zhang Huimin’s face turned so red that it could drip blood, but her heart felt indescribably sweet.
As a woman, how could she not be happy to receive such high praise from the man she loves?
It’s just that...
She let out a coquettish hum, stopping her massage movents: "Have you been to a massage place?"
"With you, why would I go for a massage elsewhere? That would just be asking for trouble, wouldn’t it?"
"That’s more like it." Zhang Huimin nodded in satisfaction.
"However, Sister Zhang, it would be great if you had one more trait." Ye Huan added with so ’regret.’
Zhang Huimin was slightly taken aback, blinked, and said: "What trait? I can try to change for you."
Ye Huan’s lips curled into a mischievous smile, "It would be even better if you could be good at undressing."
"I’ll try my best."
Unexpectedly, Zhang Huimin blushed but earnestly agreed.
A warm feeling passed through Ye Huan’s heart, and he pinched her cheek: "I’m just kidding, just be yourself."
"Xiao Ye, are you feeling down?" Suddenly, Zhang Huimin’s tone softened, and she asked gently.
When Ye Huan entered the office, a cloud seed to hang over his face.
Zhang Huimin noticed this, hurriedly put down her work, and affectionately massaged Ye Huan.
When so of the gloom on Ye Huan’s face dissipated, she tentatively asked.
"Hmm." Ye Huan’s playful expression disappeared, and he nodded, sighing helplessly, "Because of Su Qingqing."
"Did you have a conflict with her?" Zhang Huimin asked.
"Conflict... I’m not sure, but I definitely didn’t start anything with her."
Ye Huan was at a loss and then spent ten minutes recounting An Lei’s situation in full to Zhang Huimin: "That’s how it was. I tried to advise her, but she just wouldn’t believe . She even wanted to cut ties with and blocked all my contact thods. Yesterday, out of the blue, she unblocked and called . This morning as well, she wanted to et ; I thought there might be so ergency, so I went over. But who knew I’d be stood up and then blocked again."
The onlooker sees more clearly.
Upon hearing this, Zhang Huimin imdiately noticed sothing:
"Xiao Ye, do you think Minister Su saw that An Lei was blown up in the sa box as you were, which made her believe the false An Lei and Su Zhiqiang when they slandered you, saying you’re a ruthless person? After all, at that ti, it was only you and the fake An Lei in the box, and before the fake An Lei was blown up, he had a conflict with you, making you the pri ’suspect.’
"Additionally, the fake An Lei is Su Zhiqiang’s lifesaver, and as Su Qingqing is Su Zhiqiang’s sister, she would surely feel grateful to the fake An Lei. All these factors compounded. Upon learning that Dr. An Lei was blown up in the sa box as you, she would surely, on impulse, suspect you, even think of you as ruthless. Upon discovering your ’true nature’ and how drastically it differed from the image she had of her beloved... she’d feel deeply disheartened and might impulsively say sothing as harsh as ’cut ties.’
"Afterwards, she ca to her senses and firmly believed you weren’t that kind of person, so she contacted you, wanting to et up and apologize."
"The last ti, just now when she blocked you..."
"Did you do anything violent that she might have seen?"
Ye Huan was stunned, frowning deeply, he nodded: "There was an assassin who tried to kill , but I subdued him and then used so thods to coerce him into revealing who was behind it."
An assassination attempt!?
Zhang Huimin was startled, her face turning pale.
"No need to worry, although it was called an assassin, he was really just a thug, hopelessly weak in combat."
"Plus, are you not aware of my identity?"
"Being the thirteenth strongest in the West, not just anyone can assassinate ."
Ye Huan chuckled lightly, reassuring her.
Zhang Huimin rolled her eyes at Ye Huan.
No matter how strong Ye Huan was, hearing about an attempt on his life, Zhang Huimin couldn’t help but instinctively worry.
Seeing that Ye Huan wasn’t the least bit injured, she finally let out a sigh of relief, and then her eyes sparkled with intelligence.
"Do you know the person behind the assassin?"
"The person behind the assassin is a sowhat notorious hooligan in the Capital City underworld. He only sent the assassin to kill under soone else’s orders."
"Then you’re saying..." Zhang Huimin shared her analysis: "Is it possible that soone is orchestrating all this from the shadows, with the intention of having Su Qingqing see the scene where you’re interrogating the assassin, thus making her misunderstand you again?"
Ye Huan was stunned for a mont, then nodded slightly with a serious expression.
"In simple terms, soone is deliberately creating conflict between you and Su Qingqing."
"Whoever benefits the most is likely to be the mastermind!"
"That mastermind is also the one who sent soone to assassinate you!"
Zhang Huimin said deeply, her eyes filled with depth.
Noticing Ye Huan staring intensely at her, her face blushed crimson with a hint of shyness. "Why... Why are you looking at like that?"
"How can there be such a perfect woman like you in the world?"
"A combination of beauty, talent, and wisdom."
"And such a perfect woman happened to cross my path, and I won her over."
"Tell , haven’t I amassed eight lifetis of blessings?"
Ye Huan lifted Zhang Huimin’s chin with a finger, his expression very earnest.
"eting you is truly the blessing I’ve accumulated over eight lifetis," Zhang Huimin softly said from the bottom of her heart, feeling as though she could lt from his praise.
"Enough talking, continue with the massage. Let your husband enjoy it a bit longer."
Ye Huan closed his eyes, completely relaxed, and lay back on the sofa.
While gently massaging Ye Huan’s shoulders, Zhang Huimin said, "Little Ye, to put it plainly, there’s a big misunderstanding between you and Minister Su. Once it’s clarified, everything will be fine."
"No need."
"Sister Zhang, to be honest with you."
"I was troubled, not knowing how to handle my relationship with Su Qingqing."
"This breakup is just what I needed, solving a troubleso matter."
Hearing Ye Huan’s words, Zhang Huimin felt a bit helpless.
If Ye Huan were truly as indifferent to breaking up with Su Qingqing as his words suggested, he wouldn’t have entered the office with such a gloomy expression earlier.
Looks like a little push is needed...
Zhang Huimin nodded secretly.
Ye Huan was unaware of Zhang Huimin’s thoughts, his mind racing.
After arriving in the Capital City, the number of people who have offended Brother Huan or hold a grudge against him aren’t many.
The third young master of the Nan Family — Nan Zhen!
The Huang family’s son-in-law — Su Zhiqiang!
And, the entire Huang Family!
The "mastermind" must be among them.
The Huang Family can be directly ruled out; ruining Brother Huan and Su Qingqing’s relationship doesn’t benefit them at all.
Nan Zhen, Su Zhiqiang!
"The mastermind" is definitely one of them!
Moreover, the likelihood points most to Su Zhiqiang!
The hooligan disguised as a waiter to assassinate, clearly with preditated preparation, knowing Brother Huan would visit Stardew Valley Cafe.
Ye Huan rembered that when Su Qingqing arranged to et him, she had ntioned this over the phone.
"Let’s et at Stardew Valley Cafe; I’m at the hospital now and will be there in about half an hour, wait for ."
Being at the hospital implies that Su Zhiqiang likely overheard the eting location with Su Qingqing!
Additionally, Su Zhiqiang has seen and knows of my capabilities.
Sending a small thug wasn’t just a death sentence but also a ploy to showcase a scene of violence, making Su Qingqing witness it, thus deepening her misunderstanding of ?
With this realization, Brother Huan was eighty percent certain that Su Zhiqiang was the "mastermind"!
Even though he couldn’t fathom what benefits Su Zhiqiang could obtain from this.
But Brother Huan had warned him many tis.
If Su Zhiqiang continues to look for trouble, Brother Huan doesn’t mind taking action, sending him to et King Yama!
All plans would wait for tomorrow, to see if the ssages from the informants confirm the "mastermind".
Once confird to be Su Zhiqiang...
Kill!
Ye Huan kept his eyes closed, but his eyes’ temperature dropped to freezing point instantaneously, with murderous intent within his heart growing to a fervent peak due to the discomfort it brought from deep within.
