Chapter 1097: A Gift for A Sheng

“Will explain it to you guys in a few days,” Jian Yiling replied. This was not because she did not want to explain the matter to Jian Yujie and Jian Yichen. Rather, it was because their driver was also present.

Furthermore, next month was A Sheng’s birthday. This would be a nice birthday gift for him.

After all, she knew that Zhai Yunsheng was typically unable to sleep in quiet places because of his father’s death.

Even though he hid this well from people and even though he did not say anything, that shadow in his heart always existed.

The truth and mystery behind his father’s death had to be solved for him to finally confront his fears.

She wanted A Sheng to walk out of that shadow.

When Jian Yichen heard this response, he said to Jian Yiling: “Okay, but if you need me to help you with something, tell me immediately. You don’t need to be polite.”

“Same here for me,” Jian Yujie echoed.

“Mhmm,” Jian Yiling replied and nodded her head.

Although she nodded her head, Jian Yiling was not ready to get her brothers involved in this matter.

After all, she knew that she was not facing an ordinary individual.

If it was someone ordinary, the Zhai family would have gotten their revenge ages ago.

After Jian Yiling separated from Jian Yujie and Jian Yichen, she did not return home. Instead, she headed straight for the base of the Special Crimes Investigation Division.

Zhai Yunsheng noticed that Jian Yiling had become incredibly busy recently.

In the past, she was also busy from time to time. However, it was never like this. These two days, she had been completely absent from home.

She went out early and she came home late. In fact, she didn’t even spend time in the study room.

And when she came home, she would immediately head to her bedroom.

Furthermore, when she went out, there were times when she didn’t even eat breakfast.

This was super strange. It was hard for Zhai Yunsheng to not notice these changes.

In a Harmony League gathering, an upset expression could be seen on Zhai Yunsheng’s face.

This expression made Han Mengyu and Xing Wei both curious and terrified.

“Hey, what’s wrong with Master Sheng? The expression on his face today is particularly ugly. For some reason, he’s not even partic.i.p.ating in our decisions,” XIng Wei quietly said to Han Mengyu.

Xing Wei felt as though he was seated next to a ticking time bomb. He was worried that Zhai Yunsheng would explode at any moment.

“I’m not sure,” Han Mengyu replied. He did not know what was going on in Zhai Yunsheng’s mind.

After all, in the live stream last week, Master Sheng was getting along fine with Jian Yiling. During the entire time, there was a dazzling sunny smile on his face.

But for some reason, the sunny skies had turned into angry storm clouds. It felt as though lightning was about to strike at any moment.

“Master Sheng, has the Harmony League been losing money recently?” Xing Wei asked tentatively.

Zhai Yunsheng did not even move his eyelids when he heard this question.

Okay, so at the very least, this wasn’t the reason.

“Then, are we going out of business?” Xing Wei asked again.

Zhai Yunsheng raised his eyebrows slightly.

Hm… It appeared as though this wasn’t the reason either.

Han Mengyu walked over to Zhai Yunsheng and asked: “Master Sheng, did you argue with our sister-in-law?”

Zhai Yunsheng turned around to stare at Han Mengyu.

It appeared as though they found the reason.

As expected, business matters almost never bothered Master Sheng. Instead, matters that bothered him were mostly romantic.

“Master Sheng, with all due respect, if a woman is upset, you should coax them. You should definitely not ignore them. If you ignore them, they could easily become someone else’s fiancee.”

“Then how should I coax someone?” Zhai Yunsheng asked.

He didn’t even know if Jian Yiling was upset.

“Romantic gestures, affections, gifts, and sweet words,” Han Mengyu summarised from his romantic experiences.
