Shocking! The young educated youth had just arrived and was already clashing with spies.

Chapter 738 How could he possibly ask for more?

"Thank you so much for worrying about me, just like my dad!"

After looking at it for a long time, Chu Xin said something in a strange tone.

Zhou Yichen: ...

Now that he has already told the whole story, he has no way to defend himself.

What could he say? Chu Xin's obvious displeasure had already shown that he had meant well but had done something wrong. At this moment, he should be most grateful that he hadn't taken on too much and handled everything himself.

"...I'm sorry, I was too presumptuous."

Chu Xin shook her finger. "Just this once, Zhou Yichen. I see that you are genuinely willing to let it go for my sake. I don't want it to happen again."

She then composed herself with a serious expression. "As for what you saw, you can't ask if I don't want to talk about it. That's my bottom line. Normally, if someone knew this secret, I should kill them, but since it's you, I can refrain from doing so. But please..."

"I don't remember anything!"

Zhou Yichen interrupted her abruptly, afraid that if he spoke too slowly, Chu Xin would say something he couldn't bear.

“We’re not short of money. Even if you do nothing and just laze around, I won’t let you suffer any hardship. You can do whatever you want. At worst, I’ll work hard, get promoted, and try to be your support.”

Chu Xin: ...Heh, so you're going to be her backer for all her evil deeds?

Should she be proud of turning a law-abiding old man into this, or should she reflect on her own actions?

After thinking it over carefully, Chu Xin softened her tone, "I really don't think there's anything wrong with wanting to live a life of idleness and complacency. Even if I don't work and do whatever I want, I'm not going to starve to death."

Similarly, it's even more impossible for others to kill me; I can completely do without relying on anyone.

However, since you are now my partner, I don't want to discourage you. It's indeed a good idea that you can make being my support your lifelong goal.

Keep it up, I believe in you!

Zhou Yichen didn't argue, but said softly, "It sounds like I should be thanking you..."

He didn't know how other women would react to this, but Chu Xin was definitely unconventional.

Zhou Yichen, however, felt fortunate that Chu Xin had been very kind to him, neither pointing at him and scolding him for meddling nor knocking him down with a single punch.

How could he possibly ask for more?

After dropping Chu Xin off at home, Chu Yunting returned shortly after.

Zhou Yichen had things on his mind and didn't linger, immediately driving away.

He made a phone call as soon as he got back to work.

He didn't know who was on the other end of the line, and after a few casual words, he said, "I'm sorry, the thing I asked you to inquire about a while ago isn't so urgent anymore. Let's talk about it again if we have the chance later."

Then he quickly hung up the phone and dialed another number, the only contact number he had left with Su Zihang before they parted ways. It was the kind of number you could call, but you should try not to.

Chu Xin was already planning to leave, so she definitely wanted to let him know, but no one answered after she dialed three times.

"Things shouldn't happen more than three times," Zhou Yichen said, and immediately hung up the phone.

Logically, Su Zihang should have returned to the coast immediately after sending Du Zhi back to Heilongjiang Province to rest and recuperate. She should have arrived by now. The fact that he cannot contact her means that she is not here or is unable to do so, or even that she is experiencing some kind of emergency.

Zhou Yichen frowned, trying to calm himself down. He was far away in Kyoto and couldn't help even if he panicked. He could only hope that Su Zihang had something else to do and missed it.
