Hao Jian couldn't help but scratch his head in embarrassment, appearing somewhat shy, but then he caught sight of Qin Bing at the back of the crowd, baring her teeth and gesturing a fist as if still angry at his earlier departure without saying goodbye. Hao Jian was also secretly astonished, he hadn't expected that this normally icy woman would have such a playful side. Meanwhile, Benjamin, seeing Hao Jian basking in the bright red admiration and applause from everyone, felt his eyes nearly fire-breathing, his expression was filled with resentment as he glared at Hao Jian. "Some chess prodigy he is, what a joke," "Exactly, he made us all from Harvard University lose face." At the same time, Benjamin's classmates also joined in the jeering, each mocking word stabbing into Benjamin's heart like knives. "Just you wait, I'll make you understand what happens when you cross me, Benjamin!" he said through clenched teeth. After that, Hao Jian returned to his own class. As he walked in, his students looked up at him with eyes filled with admiration. Hao Jian feigned a cough and said with affectation, "No applause, no screaming, please!" "Teacher, please accept my knees!" "Teacher, I want to have your children!" Hao Jian stared in disbelief, "As a girl, you should be reserved, you know? Even if you have such thoughts, you can't just express them so blatantly, you're actually getting me a bit excited." The crowd erupted into laughter. "Teacher, we have a basketball game against Harvard University tomorrow. Why don't you play as well?" Zhang Jia suggested teasingly. "Yeah, as long as you play, teacher, we're sure to utterly defeat them!" Luo Tong chimed in. "Do you really think your teacher can do anything?" Hao Jian said with displeasure. "Yes!" a group of students shouted unanimously. .. Over the past month, Shu Ya had been having a rough time. Ever since Hao Jian left, she felt as if a vitally important part of her was missing. Shu Ya told herself more than once to forget about Hao Jian, but the more she tried to forget, the more she couldn't. Hao Jian had already left an indelible mark in her heart. He had stood up for her, took a bullet for her, and resolved crisis after crisis for her. Even if Shu Ya didn't want to admit it, she had to acknowledge that Hao Jian had become her hero. Due to special family circumstances, Shu Ya had been very independent her whole life, never relying on anyone. It wasn't until Hao Jian came into her life that she chose to trust and rely on someone. But now that Hao Jian had left, it made her feel insecure and anxious. She had not moved out of Ruo Lan's residence, because she still harbored the fantasy that one day Hao Jian would return there. Shu Ya leaned against the window, blowing the cold wind, looking somewhat despondent and angry, annoyed in her heart: To leave without even looking back, you really are cruel! Shu Ya was so absorbed in her thoughts that she didn't notice Xiao Qiang walking in. "President, what are you pondering so deeply about?" Xiao Qiang asked with a smile. Only then did Shu Ya come back to her senses, her demeanor returning to its cool composure, "Is something the matter?" "Here's today's newspaper. Have a look," Xiao Qiang handed over the latest newspapers to Shu Ya. Shu Ya skeptically took the newspapers, but after just one glance, she was stunned. The headline on the newspaper was: "The world's number one international chess master Kaso turns out to be from Huaxia, causing Chess Grandmaster Giggs to admit defeat and bow in Huaxia." Then, another foreign newspaper read: "Kaso turns out to be from Huaxia, western chess shines in the East, a legend unshakable is rising, who will prove the West's might by defeating the Eastern champion?" On both newspapers, Hao Jian's portrait appeared distinctly. "Quite a surprise, isn't it? I was surprised too, this guy turned out to be a chess master," Xiao Qiang said with a laugh. Putting down the newspaper, Shu Ya said in shock, "Wasn't he supposed to be abroad? How could he still be in the country?" After Hao Jian left home, Shu Ya had someone search for his whereabouts and found out he had smuggled out of the country. "He did go abroad indeed, and it seems he went to Atama and saved Atama's refugees. There's big news from Atama recently; the notorious warlord, the One-Legged General, was killed by a Mysterious Man, with all the power being taken over by the major drug lord Kegemo. The refugees, to commemorate that hero, even made a statue in the village for future generations to see," "And what does this have to do with Hao Jian?" Shu Ya asked, frowning. Xiao Qiang gave a bitter smile, "At first, I thought it had nothing to do with Hao Jian, but if you take a close look at the stone statue in the newspaper..." Upon hearing this, Shu Ya quickly picked up a newspaper, only to discover, to her shock, that the stone statue bore a striking resemblance to Hao Jian. In an instant, Shu Ya's brows furrowed deeply, and the astonishment in her heart was indescribable. "You and Hao Jian, you've broken up, haven't you?" Xiao Qiang gossiped, looking at Shu Ya with some hopeful anticipation. As long as Shu Ya and Hao Jian were no longer together, she would have a chance. "No," Shu Ya said expressionlessly. She was well aware of what Xiao Qiang was thinking and certainly didn't plan on letting her get her way. "You did break up with him after all!" Xiao Qiang said confidently. "You." Shu Ya was getting angry, this infuriating woman was becoming more and more disrespectful to her. Ignoring her anger, Xiao Qiang handed over her resignation letter to Shu Ya, "This is my resignation. I hope you can approve it!" A hint of annoyance in her eyes, Shu Ya asked, "What are you trying to do?" "I'm going to find him!" Xiao Qiang didn't hide her true intentions and said with a smile, "By your side, I can only be a secretary, always overshadowed by you. In such a situation, I neither have the qualifications nor the confidence to pursue him. Therefore, I'm planning to start my own business and become a strong woman like you. Then, maybe I'll be worthy of him!" "You know I won't approve it!" Searᴄh the novel(F~)ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "I know, but I don't care. I'm just politely informing you. If you don't approve it, then I'll simply have to skip work." After that, Shu Ya fell silent. She never expected Xiao Qiang would go to such lengths for Hao Jian. At this moment, she couldn't help but admire Hao Jian. She had worked with Xiao Qiang for a year, only for Hao Jian to appear and sway her in less than half a year. The two women stared at each other, sparks flying from their eyes.

Then the door was pushed open, and two men entered at the same time. "President, I tried to stop them, but they insisted on storming in," the receptionist said somewhat apologetically to Shu Ya. "Go on, then," Shu Ya waved the receptionist off and then turned to one of the middle-aged men with an impatient expression, "Uncle, what brings you here to see me?" It was none other than Zhang Zicong. Seeing Shu Ya again, Zhang Zicong's usual downcast demeanor was replaced by a fierce look in his eyes, "Shu Ya, the one looking for you this time isn't me, but someone else." Zhang Zicong naturally despised Shu Ya to the bone, for a simple reason—Shu Ya was the reason his wife ended up behind bars. Zhang Zicong and his wife conspired to kill Shu Ya. Initially, Shu Ya had wanted to send Zhang Zicong to prison as well, but then she thought about her grandfather's family having no heirs; arresting Zhang Zicong would mean dooming the Zhang Family to extinction, so she refrained from doing so. But Shu Ya's mercy towards Zhang Zicong did not mean he would show her any in return, so Zhang Zicong started making trouble behind her back yet again. Upon hearing this, Shu Ya also looked towards the younger man. If Hao Jian were here, he would have recognized the youth as Ouyang Shaohua, whom he had recently encountered. When Ouyang Shaohua laid eyes on Shu Ya and Xiao Qiang, he couldn't help but be dazzled. Such stunning beauties were a rare sight overseas, but back in China, he had encountered three, including Jiang Yutong. If he had known this, why would he have bothered going abroad? He finally believed the outside world's claims—Shu Ya Group surely was a place with clouds of beauties. "President Shu Ya is as beautiful as the rumors say, seeing you today is indeed a great fortune in my life," Ouyang Shaohua began with a bit of flattery. "Get to the point." Shu Ya, however, was unimpressed and snapped impatiently. Do I not know how pretty I am? Do I need you to tell me that? In the past, Shu Ya might have humored him with a polite response, but her mood was in the dumps because of Hao Jian, so seeing Ouyang Shaohua's playful demeanor only irritated her more. Ouyang Shaohua's expression stiffened momentarily, his face darkening as he muttered, "This time, I've come to discuss the acquisition of Shu Ya Group with you." "Shu Ya Group being acquired?" Shu Ya looked puzzled, then her gaze turned to Zhang Zicong with displeasure, "Zhang Zicong, what are you playing at?" Zhang Zicong let out a disdainful snort, "I believe Young Master Ouyang has made himself clear, he intends to acquire Shu Ya Group." "Acquire Shu Ya Group? Did I agree to that? Zhang Zicong, don't forget that you're just one of the shareholders. What gives you the right to make such a decision?" Shu Ya laughed angrily, as the idea of Zhang Zicong planning to sell off Shu Ya Group was ludicrous. "That's not up to you." Zhang Zicong snorted angrily, a cold gaze in his eyes, "Young Master Ouyang has contacts in both the securities bureau and customs. If you don't agree to the acquisition, Shu Ya Group's jewelry won't be able to go public overseas, and if it does, it certainly won't be able to export. Moreover, Young Master Ouyang's family business, Tianhong Enterprise, is a Fortune Global 500 company. It's an honor for them to consider acquiring Shu Ya Group. What reason do you have to refuse?" "Nice rhetoric, but given the current potential of Shu Ya Group, it could become a Fortune Global 500 company in just about ten years. Selling it now, are you out of your mind?" Shu Ya was furious, Zhang Zicong was simply spouting nonsense. Ouyang Shaohua obviously saw the potential of Shu Ya Group, which is why he was considering acquiring it.
