"Yun Shu," Nan Jing said, her tone neither submissive nor arrogant, "this is a matter of principle. What you intend to give to others belongs to Yun Zhi Yue, and Yun Zhi Yue is mine."
Yun Fu frowned. "Absurd! What on earth is going on? I consulted you at the hospital that day. Why didn’t you voice your objections then? Were you trying to show off your magnanimity in front of Yun Zhi Yue?"
Nan Jing chose not to answer directly and instead recounted a past event.
"Yun Shu, after graduating from university, you wanted to start your own business, which led to conflicts with your family and ultimately got you expelled from the Yun Family. You knew they were trying to force you back, and realizing no one in the capital dared to stand up for you, you took a stand and left with only enough money for a one-way ticket."
In an unfamiliar city, without money or friends, during the hardest times when you found yourself homeless, you met Yue Tong's father, Yue Xiang.
Yun Fu's frown deepened. "You little rascal! What are you trying to do by digging into my past?"
"Nothing much," Nan Jing replied. "I just want Yun Shu to wake up and see things from an outsider's perspective. Please listen."
Once you had established your business, you realized that persuading Yue Xiang to change his ways was futile, leading you to abandon all your hard work abroad and return home. Afterward, Yue Xiang became increasingly reckless, offending too many people and cornering himself.
Perhaps feeling trapped with no way out, he entrusted Yue Tong to your care. For reasons unknown, Yue Tong ultimately chose to return home.
Yun Fu calmed down and sighed. "So it was my departure that provoked Yue Xiang. You should be able to understand Yun Shu's position now."
"You are the heir of the Nan Family and have no need to covet the wealth of the Yun Family. Why create such a scene?"
Nan Jing tapped the table. "Yun Shu, don’t you understand? Yue Tong is living well in his country; he even has the reputation of being a painter and composer. But he is still Yue Xiang's son—do you really think those people would let him off easily? If you investigate closely, you'll find that there are always fatalities surrounding Yue Tong."
Yun Fu's expression shifted slightly as he spoke firmly, as if clinging to something. "None of that concerns him; it's merely coincidence. The national police have already confirmed this."
Nan Jing shook her head. "Yun Shu, regardless of what you've done or what guilt you're carrying, remember this: Yun Zhi Yue is innocent. I will not accept anything that could threaten her safety in her world; Yun Zhi Yue belongs to Yun Zhi Yue."
She placed a photograph in front of Yun Fu and stood up to leave.
The photo depicted the malicious painting of Yun Zhi Yue taken at the Art Gallery. As Yun Fu picked it up for inspection, his pupils constricted in shock.
The matter of transferring shares was thus suppressed, leaving Yue Tong somewhat surprised. Given Yun Fu's character, even if Nan Jing obstructed him, it was unlikely he would simply let things be.
A glint of intrigue flashed in Yue Tong's eyes as he pondered who had bestowed this surprise upon him.
Closing his eyes, he began retracing his steps mentally until he arrived at one possibility.
Returning to the Art Gallery, he opened the surveillance footage and began sifting through the days one by one.
The girl who came to explore the secrets at midnight looked around the Art Gallery, and finally found the answer. Yue Tong smiled, a particularly joyful smile.
It seemed she understood him well; why was that?
All things considered, he had only spent a brief half semester with Yun Zhi Yue in high school, and he hardly spoke to her at all.
Yue Tong stroked his chin, realizing he needed to change his approach. Yun Shu's birthday was coming up; what kind of gift should he get her?
Although the issue with the shares had been put on hold, Lan Qi was still very angry. She couldn’t understand why her carefully nurtured daughter always seemed to be so stubborn when it came to men.
First, she had pursued that young man from the Zhou family, making a scene over a forced marriage that left them all embarrassed. Then she got involved with Nan Jing. Lan Qi secretly rejoiced, thinking this time her daughter had made a good choice, and hoped it would lead to a share of the profits.
