219 Zhou Xuan’s Doubts

“I know all of this.” Shan Yue’s words did not show any emotion. “However, I originally thought that after helping President Zhou twice, President Zhou could still avoid investigating me. It seems that I was too naive and thought too much.”

Zhou Xuan’s words carried a hint of oppression. “There’s nothing I can do about it. It’s difficult not to investigate if a capable person like Miss Shan suddenly appears by my side.”

“However, President Zhou, you have to know in your heart that without my help, the person standing in Las Vegas might be Tang Li, and you, Zhou Xuan, would still be accused of hiring someone to kill someone in the federal city. Without me, not only would you not be able to take down this project, but it would also be more likely that you would be saved and the two parties would part on bad terms. From then on, there would be no possibility of working with them.”

“I admit that you’re right about these two things. However, they’re separate matters with me. I’ll definitely repay you for your help in the future, but this won’t erase my doubts about you.” Zhou Xuan nodded.

After Shan Yue heard Zhou Xuan’s words, she understood what he meant. Her lips gradually curled into a mocking smile. “I understand President Zhou’s doubts about me, but you should know that people change. In the past, the environment I lived in was too oppressive. What greeted me was endless slander and abuse. Even my family was filled with oppression. All of this made me unable to breathe. From that moment on, I had already made up my mind to make a change.”

Before Zhou Xuan could respond, Shan Yue did not stop talking. She continued, “Just like President Zhou, you entered the business compet.i.tion at a young age and went through a lot of hards.h.i.+ps. Didn’t you only get to where you are today because you made changes? It’s just that we’re the same people. If you don’t break through, you’re destined to never win.”

Shan Yue’s mind raced before she thought of such an excuse. Coupled with her vivid and cadenced description, she almost believed her own words, but she wasn’t sure if Zhou Xuan would believe her.

Zhou Xuan did not speak at this moment. Perhaps Shan Yue’s words reminded him of some of his past experiences. The two of them stood there for a long time.

After an unknown period of time, Zhou Xuan finally said slowly, “I can empathize with what you’re saying, but in the past, you were still a person with double digits of results. In the college entrance examination, you could get into the capital university with full marks as the top student in the city. It doesn’t make sense to use talent to explain it.”

Shan Yue shook her head and smiled helplessly. “President Zhou, there’s nothing impossible in this world. If ‘Zero’ doesn’t announce her gender, do you dare to believe that she’s a woman? Do you believe that a woman can have such powerful hacking skills? There might be many things that will surprise you in the future. We have to accept it calmly and not question it blindly. That will only highlight our ignorance.”

Just as Zhou Xuan was about to defend himself, Mu Wei ran out of the bathroom and interrupted their conversation.

Mu Wei’s brows relaxed and he looked relaxed. “President Zhou, are the two of you waiting for me? You didn’t go play anything else.”

When Shan Yue saw Mu Wei coming over, she understood that today’s conversation had come to an end. Zhou Xuan would definitely remain skeptical of everything she had said just now.

However, no matter what, today’s conversation could calm Zhou Xuan’s suspicion for a while. Then, she turned her head and smiled. “President Mu, do you want to play anything else? If there’s nothing else, let’s go back early.”

“I’m not playing anymore.” Mu Wei quickly waved his hand, his face filled with resistance. “I don’t want to play again in my life.”

Seeing this, Shan Yue also turned around and said indifferently, “Not everyone is unchanging.”

Then, she turned around and returned to the car.
