But now...

This strong man was actually begging him! Zhang Chen suddenly felt it was ridiculous! He had chosen to shoulder so many difficult things, and now that the way to make money was right in front of him, he begged him to give up!

Zhang Chen's eyes were red, and he almost gritted his teeth: "You Shulang, spring is here, it's not cold anymore, but you asked me to leave!"

The roar made Zhang Chen like a manic beast, and his radical movements caused the railing under him to shake suddenly!

"Ouch!" Zhang Chen's face turned pale, his fingers tightly gripped the iron bars, and cold sweat was obviously oozing out of his forehead.

Amid the sound of gasps, only You Shulang lowered his eyes and whispered to himself in a self-deprecating tone, "I knew it was unnecessary, but you just didn't believe it."

After the shock, the railing returned to normal. It was just a false alarm. Zhang Chen was anxious: "You Shulang, do you really want to force me to die?! Then I will die in front of you, okay?!"

The cigarette was finished. You Shulang pressed the cigarette butt against the rough wall, wrapped it with a tissue in his pocket and held it in his palm before looking up at Zhang Chen.

His eyes were dark, blending into the sky behind him. He tilted his head to glance down at the tall building and said slowly, "Zhang Chen, do you know what the consequences will be if you jump from here?"

"You will fall in the air for about 10 seconds before landing on the ground." You Shulang did not exaggerate, but simply said, "It will look very ugly."

He refilled his cigarette, and between breaths, he said, desolate but carefree, "Oh, there are life-saving mats downstairs." He raised his chin, "You can ask these firefighters, is it useful in such a high building?"

Zhang Chen's face turned even paler. "You want to scare me? I'll look ugly if I jump. Do you think I'll look good if I don't? If that thing gets out, I won't be able to get along in any circle. It's not something that can be solved by you and I leaving here! This circle is too small. I don't have any foundation, so I must be clear!"

He started to get excited again, and the leg that was stepping on the air was exerting force: "Do you know how hard I have worked these years? How difficult it has been? I have never had a girlfriend. Do you know why? Because I don't want others to suffer with me, and I don't want my children to have a hard life anymore! I've had enough!"

"You Shulang, I beg you, please help me for once, considering that our mother saved you and raised you! If you don't care about any feelings, then I will have no choice but to jump from here today!"

After hearing the threats, You Shulang turned around, leaned his elbows on the guardrail, and looked at the vast sky in the distance, as if he was looking at a gentle face: "Zhang Chen, you keep mentioning our mother, but if our mother were still alive, she would never agree with what you are doing now."

Slowing down her speech, she said, "Everyone says our mom is stupid, but she is the kindest and most insightful woman in the world. No matter how complicated a matter is, it will become the simplest one when it comes to her. The whole family wants to be together happily."

You Shulang turned his head, looked at Zhang Chen's hands tightly grasping the railing, and said indifferently: "Now I tell you clearly that I can't satisfy your wishes."

He went on to say, "If you really jump, I can't stop you."

Looking at Zhang Chen's extremely shocked eyes, You Shulang continued calmly: "Our mother has been quite lonely for so many years, it's a good opportunity for you to go and keep her company."

"I don't have much money right now, but I will definitely find you a place next to mom's grave, and buy the other side as well. I will come to find you a hundred years later. If mom really blames me, I will kowtow to her and admit my mistake. She can punish me however she wants."

Having not smoked for a long time, You Shulang could no longer smell any sparks. After saying this, he smoked in solitude, and his gloomy expression was filled with annoyance. "Hurry up and make a decision, Zhang Chen. We are all tired."

The voice spread far away. Someone behind the crowd chuckled.

It was actually Shi Lihua.

"Now I have some respect for You Shulang." He glanced at the person next to him, "He is not the saint who has no bottom line and loves all as some people say."

Next to him stood a tall man, hidden behind the crowd, standing in the corner.

There happened to be light in the corner, illuminating his expression clearly, but it was still difficult to tell whether his face showed worry or joy.

Sometimes his expression was frighteningly sinister, and sometimes he seemed proud and complacent. It was hard to understand.

Until Shi Lihua said coldly: "To be honest, You Shulang deserves better."

He was still thinking about Fan Xiao's attitude towards him when he was beaten last time, so he told the truth in front of the man.

Fan Xiao finally turned his gaze from You Shulang to Shi Lihua.

"What did you say?" The voice was weak and there was almost no emotion in it.

Shi Lihua suddenly received a danger signal. He shrugged awkwardly: "Just pretend that I didn't say anything."

Seeing that Fan Xiao didn't move, he had no choice but to say, "Such a good person should be left in the hands of you, Young Master Fan, okay?"

Fan Xiao finally let Shi Lihua go. He looked at You Shulang again and found that the man's jaw was very tense and his Adam's apple was moving slowly. In fact, he was not as indifferent as he appeared.

"Zhang Chen is trying to force You Shulang to death." There was a hint of cruelty in Fan Xiao's eyes.

Shi Lihua's tone changed: "Aren't you going to force You Shulang to death?"

Fan Xiao's eyes trembled, and his heart seemed to suddenly skip a beat. For some reason, he took a small step back, as if he was afraid to face it, or as if he was planning to escape.

But Shi Lihua was still chattering: "Fan Xiao, I'm afraid your trick won't work."

"I didn't ask Zhang Chen to jump off the building. He was just an idiot who acted on his own initiative!"

"You didn't instigate this?" Shi Lihua was slightly surprised. "That's strange."

"But even the tactic of jumping off a building was used, and she remained unmoved." He sighed and shook his head slightly, "I'm afraid your Director You really can't be brought back."

The man beside him visibly stiffened. His already deep eyes were now filled with a sickly gleam.

His hand subconsciously reached into his pocket and tightly grasped his phone...
