Chapter 434: Nothing Can Be Done

pbringing." 。“Today, in the garden under his jurisdiction, he embarrassed the city leaders. The head gardener was just scolded by the boss at headquarters over the phone. Now all the anger is vented o...At this moment, he could do nothing, not even the slightest expression. In this small room, who knows how many pairs of eyes were watching him.

He lay on the ground, his body very weak. He had run for almost a month, and when he returned, he was beaten again by the guards. His strength was nearly gone, and he lay motionless on the ground.

His eyes, seemingly devoid of any fluctuation, stared at the image projected onto the white wall. He gazed at that familiar face, silently calling out her name in his heart, Tinglan, Shu Tinglan. He prayed silently for her safety.

He did not regret coming back again. Ding Zhi said his mission was complete, he could leave, but he knew it wasn't, far from it. Danzan, Gesar Lerin, and Jia Peng were still out there.

The door swung open with a bang, and dazzling sunlight flooded in. Yi Mu Yang narrowed his eyes slightly and saw Gan An walk in against the light, squatting down in front of him silently. He met Yi Mu Yang's gaze without saying a word.

After that, he reached out and patted Yi Muyang's face.

Yimu Yang smirked: "I don't hit people in the face, the only thing on my whole body that's still presentable is this face."

Gan An, hearing his words, actually laughed. This time he reached out towards him: "Can you stand up"

His mood swings were unpredictable, sometimes dark and sometimes bright, which was actually quite frightening.

Yimu Yang struggled to get up, "Help me!" He wasn't afraid of Gan An at all, and even leaned against him the moment Gan An reached out his hand, using his strength to move.

Gan An's people were dumbfounded, they had never seen anyone like this. Even those who had followed Gan An for many years, like Gesang or Jiarong, didn't dare to get too close to him. Yet, he actually dared to lean against Gan An, this was like having the guts of a bear and the heart of a leopard!

Gan An handed him over to the two men below, turned his head and glanced at the projection on the white wall, and said:

"Miss Shu is very beautiful, but rather heartless. I asked her to meet me, and if she didn't, I would kill you. In the end, she didn't even show up, not caring at all about your life or death. Aoyang, let me tell you, beautiful women are often heartless."

Yi Muyang: "Did An Zong only realize this today"

Yimu Yang carried a hint of worldly-weariness and sarcasm in his voice, as if he'd seen it all before. However, there was a slight rasp to his words, as if he were speaking through pain. Perhaps the kick he received to his abdomen earlier had injured something more than just flesh; maybe even bone.

"Don't you like her anymore" Ken asked.

"I don't like her, there are plenty of other women in the world."

For almost a month after, Yi Muyang has been recuperating. Gan An also stopped bringing up the past events, leaving everyone guessing his true thoughts. Was he believing in Yi Muyang or not

Only Yi Muyang knew that at this position in Gan'an, it no longer mattered whether one believed or not. As long as it could be used for oneself and controlled, it would be enough.

...While Gan An knew very well that it wasn't money or power that could restrain him, but Shu Tinglan. ...

He had originally been filled with courage, already placing his own life and death beyond consideration. If dying had meaning, he felt that this life would have been worth living. So, he resolutely returned to this dark world.

But he hadn't thought about it, he would involve Tinglan in this. This matter weighed heavily on his heart, like a huge stone pressing down on him, suffocating him just thinking about it.

This was the first time he dialed that familiar string of numbers.

At that moment, Shu Tinglan was in the office having a meeting with clients. Hearing his phone vibrate, he glanced at the caller ID out of the corner of his eye, and his heart skipped a beat.

"Sorry," she said to the client, then snatched her phone and bolted out of the meeting room like a shot. In a secluded corner, she carefully answered the call, whispering a greeting.

Everything was silent, only a familiar voice from the phone: "Tinglan, it's me."

Shutinglan's heart trembled instantly, tears swirling in her eyes: "Yeah, I know."

It's been a while since we last talked. I had so much to say, but at this moment, I suddenly don't know where to begin.

"How are the children"

"That's good, they all went back to Beijing. They miss Uncle Yi very much."

After another moment of silence, Yi Muyang spoke.

“Tinglan, I’m sorry to drag you into this. You need to protect yourself.” Yimu Yang had a lot he wanted to say, but when it came to his lips, he suddenly felt there was nothing to say. That man would do better than him.

He just wanted to hear her voice.

"I'm fine, don't worry about me. You just need to stay safe over there. Me and the kids are all waiting for you to come back." Tears kept swirling in her eyes, she held them back with all her might, but her voice trembled, unable to contain its emotion.

Yi Mu Yang then fell silent.

"Yi Mu Yang, you must return safely."

"Hmm."

"I miss you."

"Hmm."

Thinking of him, worrying about him, were all genuine feelings, unrelated to love, but they were the same as a deep affection for each other. She calmed her emotions for a long time before walking back into the conference room to continue the meeting.

This call, Yi Muyang had originally planned to say a lot, but in the end he didn't say anything important. Because hearing her voice suddenly made him feel that there was no need to say anything, it was all an excuse, just wanting to hear her voice.

From this small border town onwards, the hollowness in his heart was filled by her voice and her words. After a month of recuperation, his body had mostly recovered. He hadn't been seriously injured, just weak from illness.

Gan An is always unpredictable in his actions. I thought that after he experienced the bust of his drug factory by Gesang Liren and the encounter with police during a transaction, he would at least lay low for half a year or even a year to wait for a more opportune moment to strike again.

As soon as Yimu Chang's injury healed, in less than two months, he said...

“Achang, come for a walk with me.”

Yi Muyang followed his car, stopping and starting along the way. He asked...

"Do you know where we're going"

Yi Muyang shook his head.

"To Senzhou!" he uttered the name with chilling coldness.

Yi Muyang looked at him in shock, incredulous. "Go to Senzhou"

"Yes, I remember Ms. Shu's attitude towards you, it made me feel cold. You are my brother, and I can't let you suffer this injustice, so I'll take you to find her."

"No, I have nothing to do with her." Yimu Yang's heart turned cold, and his back was covered in a cold sweat.

Gan An glanced at him without speaking, the car was deathly silent.

Since Yi Muyang embarked on the journey with Gan An, his phone was confiscated. Throughout this journey, he was unable to contact anyone.

We drove for almost two days and two nights, stopping along the way, before finally entering the borders of Senzhou City.

They didn't take any highways, the more remote the route, the more they traveled it.

And behind Gan An's car, there were two more cars following.

On this trip, Yimu Yang vaguely guessed the true purpose of Gan An's journey to Senzhou.

The last batch of goods hasn't been sent out yet, could it be that this time Gan Anjian took a different approach and chose to deliver the goods to Senzhou, thousands of miles away

Or is he being so roundabout on purpose, just to test hima misconception, thinking that it was only natural for her elders to love her. So when she first heard what Gu's mother said, she felt very sad.While Gu Ma didn't say anything directly bad about her,...
