Xu Lichen hung up the phone, still sitting on the desk, looking at the oil painting thrown on the floor and the destroyed safe on the wall.

There was some cash and jewelries in it. His father didn’t find what he wanted. He just ignored the money and jewelries, then got angry and left.

It left a mess all over the place.

Everyone is gone, and the house becomes quiet.

The aunt hesitantly came over and said: “Chenchen, look at this…”

Xu Lichen expressionlessly: “Clean this up.”

The aunt said, “I don’t dare, there’s so much money! Why don’t you collect the money and all these things first? They are all old and expensive things. If we knock them over or if some of them gets missing, we can never tell.”

Xu Lichen then called his mother’s secretary: “Secretary Wang, I need a new safe. Okay, send it over as soon as possible. Those people have already left. Tell my mother not to worry about what happened here at home, I’m still here.” After making this call, he continued to sit there, motionless. Watching the aunts clean up the floor first, and then they all went out.

The light in the room gradually dimmed.

By the time an aunt suddenly turned on the light, it was already dark outside.

The aunt said: “The new safe is here.”

Xu Lichen then saw the workers bring in a new safe. When the workers saw the contents of the old safe, they turned their heads and asked him, “Sir, this…”

Xu Lichen: “Help me put them all in the new safe.”

The workers resolutely refused: “There’s so much money, please put it yourself.”

Xu Lichen didn’t want to move and said, “Auntie, you do it.”

The aunt glanced at him, sighed, and transferred the money and jewelries to the new safe.

The workers recorded the voiceprint password for Xu Lichen, installed the new safe, and left.

The aunt came and called Xu Lichen: “Let’s go and eat something.”

Xu Lichen only shook his head.

He didn’t eat or drink, sitting on the desk all the time, staring at the new safe. He didn’t know how long it had been, then an aunt knocked on the door: “Chenchen…”

Xu Lichen didn’t look back: “What?”

The aunt said, “Your friend is here.”

Friend?

Xu Lichen suddenly turned his head.

The girl standing at the door is tall, with heroic eyebrows and compelling beauty. Isn’t that Zhang Yansheng?

The aunt looked at Xu Lichen, then looked at the beautiful girl, and quietly walked out.

Xu Lichen turned his head and looked at Zhang Yansheng across the air for a while, then jumped off the table and laughed twice.

“What’s the matter, Zhang Yansheng? Did you come here to comfort me?” He put his hands on his waist triumphantly, “Just admit it, do you like me?”

“It is impossible to like you.” Zhang Yansheng put her hands on her waist too, and affirmatively said, “It is impossible in this life.”

Zhang Yansheng had no intention of coming.

Xu Lichen sounded strong on the phone, much calmer than her previous life. He also said: “I will take care of it.” Zhang Yansheng hung up the phone with confidence.
