Tang Yuansi spoke slowly . From the tone of his voice, it sounded like something was amiss .
Yu Yuehan immediately stopped in his tracks and a trace of worry flashed across his face .
"What do you want me to do to help you?"
Yu Yuehan had known Tang Yuansi for a long time and was well-aware of the kind of person he was . Tang Yuansi wasn't the sort to ask for favors from anyone .
Now that Tang Yuansi was suddenly approaching him for help, there must be something that had crossed Tang Yuansi's bottom line .
"Don't let Shangxin know that I was the one who had gone to save her today," Tang Yuansi's low voice spoke slowly and clearly from the other end of the line .
" . . . " Yu Yuehan frowned and kept silent .
In his mind, he recalled Tang Yuansi's reaction after finding out that Shangxin had been kidnapped .
Tang Yuansi had used all the power and connections he possessed in order to find Shangxin, rushed to her rescue, and led his people in pulling her out of danger . Yet, he refrained from showing his face?
Now, he even wanted Yu Yuehan's help to keep quiet about it . . .
Yu Yuehan's eyebrows furrowed into a thin line as the tone of his voice grew more stern . He asked sarcastically, "Is it fun to self-harm?"
" . . . "
The person on the other end of the line did not speak for a few seconds . Then, he said, "We are not suited for each other . This ending is best for both of us . "
Knowing that Yu Yuehan would not decline his request, Tang Yuansi hung up the phone when he was done speaking .
On the other side .

Nian Xiaomu ran after Shangxin, who was running toward the backstage area .
She could see tears in the corners of Shangxin's eyes, so she thought that maybe something awful had happened to Shangxin during the time she had disappeared . Nian Xiaomu wanted to rush into the lounge to find out more .
Before she could reach for the handle of the door, she was stopped by Shangxin's manager .
"Supervisor Nian, she's feeling a bit upset . It wasn't easy for her to control her emotions up to now . Please let her calm down on her own," said the manager politely .
Hearing this, Nian Xiaomu quickly grabbed her arm .
"Did someone bully her? Is she hurt? Didn't you say that she was fine?"
" . . . " The manager was going to reply to Nian Xiaomu, but when she saw Yu Yuehan walk toward them, she hurriedly bowed respectfully .

"Master Han . "
Yu Yuehan looked past the manager and directly glanced over at Nian Xiaomu as he instructed, "Come with me . "
Nian Xiaomu: " . . . "
Her mind was filled with thoughts of Shangxin and checking in on Shangxin in the lounge .
However, she recalled that she had just made use of Yu Yuehan to kill time on stage and owed him a big favor . It wouldn't be right to ignore him now, so she reluctantly followed behind him all the way to an empty corner backstage .
Yu Yuehan stopped walking and turned around to look at Nian Xiaomu, who was all flustered .
The product launch had ended and Shangxin had officially signed the contract with Sheng Da Science and Technology . There was no need for her to be so anxious .
It seemed like she really treated Shangxin as a friend .

"Forget what you heard from my assistant today . " As Yu Yuehan looked fixedly at her and spoke, he leaned against the wall with both hands in his pockets .
It was like a casual chat .
"What?" Nian Xiaomu felt slightly taken aback .
She did not seem to understand what he meant with his words and was in a daze for a few seconds before she lifted her head to look at him .
"Regarding Shangxin's abduction today, I was the one who located her and informed her manager to bring people to save her . Do you understand?" Yu Yuehan took his right hand out of his pocket and held Nian Xiaomu's delicate chin with his slender fingers as he leaned closer toward her .
They stood very close together .
Nian Xiaomu blinked in surprise as she looked at his long and dark eyelashes that appeared even prettier than a girl's .
She could feel his warm breath against her face . The faint peppermint scent felt so domineering and alluring to her senses .
