It only took him half a year to figure this out.

In his original plan, Chu Zhe had given himself a year’s time.

“What are you thinking about, Big Brother? You’re so preoccupied. Didn’t you say you were going to the washroom? Why have you come here?” Chu Ning suddenly appeared in front of Chu Zhe, speaking softly, just as Chu Zhe was holding his chin and lost in thought.

“I told you the food there doesn’t suit your taste.” Chu Zhe smiled and took a sip of the tea in front of him.

“Big Brother, when do you plan to leave this place?” Chu Ning didn’t answer Chu Zhe but asked him directly.

In fact, Chu Ning really hoped that Chu Zhe could join her company. If she could get someone like Chu Zhe to help her manage the company, Chu Ning wouldn’t even have to make many decisions, and she would have a greater peace of mind. However, she also knew that this was not realistic.

Chu Zhe was like her, extremely assertive and ambitious.

“Oh? Who told you I’m leaving? My colleagues?” Chu Zhe asked with interest, looking at Chu Ning.

“They didn’t say that; I guessed it myself. In fact, you can leave this place without any worries right now. Staying here will only waste your time,” Chu Ning said indifferently.

“Sometimes, when you think about things, don’t be too utilitarian. It’s good to experience it. When I first came to the department, I had nothing. Now that I’ve gotten what I most wanted, it’s not appropriate for me to leave just like this. President Liu didn’t mistreat me, so I need to settle down and stay for a while longer. Xiao Ning, sometimes you can’t ignore human emotions for the sake of profit and efficiency. We’re humans, and humans have feelings; we’re not cold money-making machines.” As Chu Zhe said this, he was also sighing inside.

Chatting with Chu Ning was like looking at a mirror. He seemed to be speaking to Chu Ning, but he was actually telling himself not to be impatient.

“Big Brother is right, I know. It’s just that sister Gu Xin may not understand your thoughts now. She’s still complaining about why you don’t care about the branch manager position at all. I think you need to go down and sit there now, even though it’s quiet here and you really want to stay,” Chu Ning said with a smile.

“Why should I explain to her?” Chu Zhe looked at Chu Ning suspiciously. No matter how smart he was, Chu Zhe couldn’t understand what Chu Ning meant.

“Foolish Big Brother, Gu Xin is your future wife. If you make her angry now, you’ll have to coax her back in the future!” Chu Ning thought helplessly to herself.

“It’s impolite for you to be absent like this. Big Brother, you’re not planning to sit here until the end of the banquet, are you?” Chu Ning said matter-of-factly.

“Alright, then. How did your trip to S City go? Did it go smoothly?” Chu Zhe changed the topic and continued.

“It was done in the afternoon. I’ve already bought tickets for tomorrow morning’s high-speed rail.” After returning to M City, Chu Ning planned to start developing the software.

“That’s good.” Chu Zhe nodded and walked out with Chu Ning.

At the same time, Lu Chao was packing his limited luggage in his rented house. He would be leaving S City with Chu Ning the next morning, leaving the place he had been living in all this time.

He had already paid off all the fees he owed the landlord. After his parents died, Lu Chao had nothing left in S City that he would miss.

What Lu Chao did not know was that Bai Hong was currently sitting in a shop below his rented apartment.

Chu Ning’s intuition was very accurate. Even though Fan Heng and Jiang Fei’s subordinates did not care about Lu Chao, Jiang Fei was particularly concerned.

She would not tolerate Lu Chao leaving her sight or control.

Therefore, Jiang Fei would take action that night. She would either restrict Lu Chao and make him stay in S City or make him disappear, even though she would have to pay an unimaginably painful price.

Jiang Fei did not know why Chu Ning had come to look for Lu Chao, but she would not allow the occurrence of any unexpected factors.

“Boss, according to the information, this person is trash. Why would such a rich employer value this kind of person so much?” Under the night sky, a small group of people appeared in the residential area where Lu Chao’s house was rented. Under Jiang Fei’s orders, they had come specifically to look for Lu Chao for a ‘good talk’.

If Lu Chao’s attitude was more submissive, they would cripple him and make him unable to move. If Lu Chao resisted, he would disappear from this world forever. This was the message that Jiang Fei, their employer, had conveyed to them.
