TVSFPAG -Chapter 120 Is That Even Human Language?

Song Yunfei asked nervously, “What is it?”

“Call me brother.”

Song Yunfei said helplessly, “Stop messing around. Just tell me already.”

Bai Yu snorted lightly, sounding a bit displeased. “I’ve got a patient here. I’ll tell you later.”

Song Yunfei could tell that was just an excuse and hurriedly said, “Hey, don’t! Brother, big brother! I’ll call you, okay!”

Only then did Bai Yu smile in satisfaction. “Actually, it’s nothing major. The old chairman is retiring, and a new chairman will be elected at the end of the year. Why are you suddenly interested in this?”

Song Yunfei’s heart skipped a beat.

“Then… is Chu Jinhan the best candidate?”

“He was before. But now that he’s been missing for over half a year, it’s hard to say.”

Song Yunfei asked again, “So the reason someone asked you to come over is also for this matter?”

Bai Yu clicked his tongue. “Cuihua, how did you get so smart?”

Song Yunfei fell into silence, her mind increasingly unsettled.

She had thought so too—there was no way the original owner, just an ordinary employee, could have the ability to deceive someone and keep them away for over a year.

In other words, she had done all the illegal things, while others reaped the benefits.

“Now you’re scared, huh?”

Song Yunfei sighed. How could she not be afraid?

“Then what should I do now? Should I tell him the truth?”

Bai Yu laughed. “Go ahead and tell him. After you do, it won’t just be him suing you—others will likely not let you off either, since you’ll have ruined their plans.”

Hearing the first half of his words, Song Yunfei had felt somewhat relieved. But after hearing the second half, she felt as if the sky had fallen.

So now she was stuck in a dilemma?

Song Yunfei asked again, “Then what happens if he misses this election?”

“Not much. He’ll just lose the chairman position.”

“Is that really ‘not much’?”

“Yeah. After that, he’ll only have shares and cold dividends—just a rich second-generation who can live off his wealth. Pretty miserable.”

“……”

Is that even human language?

She really felt like going head-to-head with these rich people!

“I thought you were so bold you wouldn’t be afraid. Why are you suddenly scared now? What psychological journey did you go through? Tell me so I can enjoy it.”

Song Yunfei didn’t want to talk to him for even a second longer and decisively hung up the phone.

But after a few minutes, she reluctantly called back again.

Aside from Bai Yu, she had no one else to consult—after all, the two of them were accomplices.

Unexpectedly, Bai Yu still held a grudge. As soon as the call came through, he hung up on her.

Song Yunfei snorted. Fine, if he wouldn’t answer, she blocked him instead.

Mutual destruction at its finest.

After returning home, Song Yunfei even took out her phone to search for information.

She was just an ordinary worker and didn’t understand the internal structure of these large corporations, so she wanted to look up what a chairman actually did.

In her daily work life, she hadn’t really seen the chairman either.

After reading for a long time, the internet offered all kinds of explanations, which only made her head spin.

However, summarizing it all, Chu Jinhan held shares, and his authority was definitely greater than that of the chairman—though she didn’t know exactly how many shares he had.

According to the original storyline, he currently didn’t hold many shares.

The roles he was taking on now were actually meant to train him and build his prestige, so that in the future he could obtain the shares held by his father.

As the largest shareholder, without sufficient capability, even if one obtained the shares, a single poor decision could easily cause problems for the entire group.

Meanwhile, the chairman could participate in the company’s operations and decision-making—this was the position that best reflected a person’s ability.

If he failed to be elected, Song Yunfei didn’t know what would happen.

Perhaps, as Bai Yu said, in the future he would only be able to live as a carefree rich second-generation who did nothing but enjoy life, with no connection to the shares held by his father.

Such cold words made Song Yunfei feel a chill in her heart.

However, this matter should be quite important to him, right?

Unaware of the passing time, she was suddenly jolted when she heard the door open. Song Yunfei quickly put away her phone and looked toward the person entering.

After Chu Jinhan came in, he subconsciously looked at the dining table—it was empty.

Noticing his gaze, Song Yunfei gave an awkward smile. “Um… I overslept. Let’s go out to eat tonight.”

Chu Jinhan didn’t say much and nodded. “Alright. What would you like to eat?”

“I’m not sure either. Let’s go out and see.”

She got up from the sofa and ran to the door.

“Wait.” Chu Jinhan stopped her, then went back inside. When he came out, he had an extra coat in his hand.

He draped the coat over Song Yunfei’s shoulders. “It gets cool at night. Wear more.”

Song Yunfei smiled at him. “Mm, thank you.”

Since they were going out to eat, they couldn’t bring Quanquan along. Song Yunfei looked back at the dog lying listlessly in its nest.

“Why do I feel like it’s a bit depressed?”

Chu Jinhan also glanced at it. “Maybe it’s because it’s been separated for too long.”

“Really?” Song Yunfei was somewhat doubtful. If it had been separated for too long, it should be excited instead.

There was no way Xiao Xian would mistreat it—after all, she had bought only the best things for it.

Suddenly, Song Yunfei thought of something. Could it be that after living so well these past few days, it was missing the time it spent at Xiao Xian’s place?

She sighed and closed the door as they left.

The two of them strolled along the nearby streets. There were many shops, but they didn’t know what to eat.

As they walked, Song Yunfei began to drift off again, her mind filled entirely with what Bai Yu had said.

She had originally thought that at worst, she could just tell the truth and find a way to run away. But now, if she told the truth, she might face threats from others as well.

It might even implicate her parents, which made her have to think things through carefully.

Chu Jinhan watched her spacing out. Just as she was about to step into a red light crossing, he quickly pulled her back.

“What have you decided to eat?”

Song Yunfei snapped back to reality, her eyes landing on a nearby restaurant selling braised chicken. She casually pointed. “Let’s eat that.”

“Mm.”

When crossing the street, Chu Jinhan took her hand and led her into the restaurant.

The place was quite crowded—it seemed the food was good.

After sitting down, they ordered a braised chicken dish. Song Yunfei rested her chin on her hand and began spacing out again.

Chu Jinhan glanced at her several times before finally asking, “Are you worried about uncle’s condition?”

“Huh? Yeah.” Song Yunfei replied vaguely.

Chu Jinhan stared at her for a moment but didn’t continue asking.

The two of them ate in silence. Chu Jinhan didn’t seem to like the chicken very much. After struggling to swallow a few bites, he put down his chopsticks.

Song Yunfei noticed. “You don’t like it? Should we order something else?”

Chu Jinhan declined. “No need. I’m not very hungry anyway.”

It was hard to tell whether he was telling the truth, so Song Yunfei let it go for the moment.

After finishing their meal, the two of them slowly walked back.

Just as they reached the entrance of the residential complex, Song Yunfei saw a familiar figure. She instinctively tried to pull Chu Jinhan away.

However, Xiao Xian had already spotted them. “Hey, Song Yunfei!”

Song Yunfei took a deep breath, forced a smile, and turned to face the woman at the gate.

“What is it?”

Xiao Xian walked up to them in a couple of steps and looked at Chu Jinhan.

When Chu Jinhan saw her, his brows furrowed slightly, his expression becoming thoughtful.
