Chapter 467: Chapter 345: Talisman Plan, Confucian General Tian Zhe_2

And the [Immortal Phoenix Pen] could draw Fourth Grade, also possessing the function of memory drawing techniques.

Yang Genshuo was waiting for a message from Yang Qiang when he received a call from Tian Zhe.

“Genshuo bro, Yanyan has resigned, and I’m leaving too… Thank you for doing so much for me. At our wedding, I’ll have you be our witness, haha~”

“Ah? You’re leaving? Why?”

Firstly, excluding the issue of money, Tian Zhe was a smart man; he certainly knew how much money he could make by following him.

As for Su Yanyan’s resignation, that wasn’t surprising, given that she was almost robbed of her kidneys overseas just one week after starting her job. No normal girl would dare stay at such a company.

No amount of money would be enough to convince her.

But Tian Zhe… Yang Genshuo really didn’t want to let him go.

There were some things he only trusted to his few good brothers.

In one’s lifetime, how many friends can you encounter who are willing to give you their all and trust you with their backs?

It truly wasn’t easy.

On the other end of the phone, Tian Zhe smiled slightly.

“Genshuo bro, as you know, to me… the amount of money isn’t particularly important. What’s important is who I’m with and the kind of life I lead. Yanyan chose to leave; I definitely can’t let her be alone. Whether or not you have me, I’m always exceptional, but without me, she really can’t do it.”

“Yeah, yeah, there comes the bootlicker talk again. Scram then, but when I’m in trouble, you have to take leave and come help for a few days.”

“Absolutely! Genshuo bro… I’m happy for you.”

Tian Zhe’s meaningful words made Yang Genshuo realize… this brother had understood that he himself was no ordinary mortal.

“You, you… forget it, I’ve tried for so many years and can’t convince you. Remember, if anything happens, call me first. I’ll always be your good brother.”

“Hmm!”

As Tian Zhe left, Yang Genshuo felt… somewhat empty inside.

If possible, Tian Zhe was his favorite assistant; he could take care of many things for him, especially… matters requiring force, despite being a scholar.

In ancient times, what kind of generals were the most formidable?

Confucian Generals.

Tian Zhe was the best candidate. Since that day when he was augmented by the triple Talisman, his resolute and ruthless actions and absolute trust made Yang Genshuo realize he hadn’t trusted the wrong person.

Unfortunately… not everyone was like Guo Xiaozhi, a mortal who toiled for money and took joy in it.

Cheng Bo only cared about scientific research, and Tian Zhe cared only about love.

Yes, everyone called Tian Zhe a bootlicker, but Yang Genshuo understood that what Tian Zhe was truly pursuing was… love.

Some people live solely for what they need, unconstrained by worldly views.

“Maybe… that’s why when I started the business back then, only Guo Xiaozhi was there with me.”

“Tian Zhe, have a good journey.”

…

Tian Zhe planned to take Su Yanyan back to Beijing today, but he hadn’t told Su Yanyan that he was also going to leave with her.

The day Su Yanyan cried in his arms, he knew… he hadn’t protected the wrong person.

Su Yanyan needed him.

At that moment, she also realized who truly loved her.

Thus, after Su Yanyan took all her luggage out of the car, she also pulled out a plane ticket.

Su Yanyan was a bit puzzled: “This is…?”

“Yanyan, I’ve decided. We’re going back to Beijing together. This life here isn’t for us. From now on… we’ll face everything together, and create the future we want.”

At this moment, Su Yanyan covered her mouth, utterly astonished.

“You’re not working with Genshuo bro anymore?”

“Right, there’s no point in staying without you.”

“What about your shares…”

“I withdrew them before they were even transferred to my name; it doesn’t matter. They were a gift from Genshuo bro. They weren’t truly mine, so it’s as if they never existed. We can go back to a normal life.”

Perhaps only Tian Zhe understood this sentence.

He wasn’t rejecting the shares but a colorful, mysterious world. Ultimately, he chose the person he loved most.

Su Yanyan was even more shocked, practically in disbelief.

“Are you serious? Are you being silly, not taking them when they’re given to you for free? Do you have any idea how hard we’ve worked in Beijing for so many years, and it’s still not enough compared to what those selling jars of wine make?”

“Tian Zhe, have you gone mad?”

Seeing Su Yanyan so concerned for him, Tian Zhe felt even more content.

“Yanyan, you don’t understand. If I took the shares, we would never be able to return to a normal life…”

He took Su Yanyan’s hand and placed it on his heart, just like the angle at which she threw herself into his arms that day.

“I will protect you for a lifetime, just like I did that day.”

A smile played on Tian Zhe’s lips, feeling that at this moment, he… looked incredibly cool.

Su Yanyan stiffened, then her hand violently withdrew, her eyes dodging.

“Tian Zhe, you… Have you misunderstood something?”

Tian Zhe: “?”

Quickly glancing at the plane ticket in her hand, Su Yanyan then said:

“I need to catch the plane. We’ll talk more on WeChat later!”

“Our flight is together.”

“Don’t go!”

Su Yanyan screamed as if someone had stepped on her tail.

“Why? Yanyan, what’s wrong? Didn’t you say that day…”

“Stop talking about that, you have more important things to do now! Go back immediately, find Yang Genshuo, tell him you’ve been through life and death for him, and ask him to give you the shares quickly. Then everything will be negotiable! Don’t be foolish, Tian Zhe!”

“Shares… are they that important?”

“Important! Without the shares of Immortal Energy Group, what will you do? You’re 30 and have achieved nothing! You want me to wait for you? To believe in you? Your future is bleak! Grow up, Tian Zhe! After all these years, don’t act like a student anymore! Understand?”

Su Yanyan, with a face full of anger, looked down and scolded Tian Zhe.

Tian Zhe felt as if he had a thorn in his heart, causing him great discomfort.

He let go of Su Yanyan’s hand.

As she turned to leave, Tian Zhe, with his head buried in the shadows, mustered his last bit of strength and said:

“Yanyan, if I get the shares, will we still be okay?”

Su Yanyan glanced at her phone, replied to two messages, then turned and said:

“If you get the shares back, it proves you are still a capable man, and then it’ll be different, our future won’t be bleak anymore!”

“If you truly care about our future, then go do the right thing.”

“You don’t want me to be stuck in a rental apartment in Beijing forever, do you?”

After speaking, she left the place.

Tian Zhe stood still, hesitated for a moment, and did not follow her.

“The right thing, huh…”

Five hours later.

Tian Zhe received a call from one of his brothers in Beijing.

“Brother Zhe, she got into a man’s car… a handsome guy, went to a hotel.”

“I know.”

He turned and sent a screenshot of his unsold shares at the food factory to Su Yanyan.

Su Yanyan: “Wow~ you managed it so quickly? Tian Zhe, I wasn’t wrong about you, your ability has always been buried… Our family will rely on you in the future #Laughter.”

Tian Zhe: “Still calling me Tian Zhe?”

Su Yanyan: “Husband #Shy”

After reading these two words, Tian Zhe sighed in relief as if liberated.

“Sigh…”

His heart, already full of scars, now completely shattered.

All his efforts couldn’t match up to money.

And she could sit in another man’s arms and rightfully call herself his wife…

Tian Zhe wasn’t foolish.

He, who deeply studied history and philosophy, actually saw clearer than most.

All the reasons were already clear.

Su Yanyan had never loved him… Even if he had gotten the shares, she still wouldn’t love him.

She didn’t want to work in a dangerous company, but she was willing to let Tian Zhe earn money, big money, there.

She never considered whether Tian Zhe might be in danger or if he might die.

She just needed a lapdog, a wealthy lapdog.

Her standards were set only for herself.

Not for the handsome guy in the car.

“Why bother?”

Tian Zhe bitterly smiled as he recalled the past ten years.

Then he called Yang Genshuo.

“Brother Shuo, let me risk my life for you, do anything… take me into your world.”

“Can I trust you?”

“For a lifetime.”

Tian Zhe returned, this time without any weaknesses, just a heart… in pursuit of the mysterious.

Upon arriving at the manor.

Tian Zhe saw the ground covered with Spirit Grass and Spirit Flowers as well as the Cultivation Room.

“Brother Shuo, do you cultivate here?”

“I never mentioned cultivation to you.”

“But I know.”

“Your mind has returned?”

“It’s been stored with someone else for too long… not sure if it’s still working properly.”

“Have you let go?”

“No, on the way here I just realized one of my flaws…”

“What flaw?”

“I’m not as magnanimous as I thought I was.”
