Under their scorching gazes, Yan Shen became quieter and quieter, and his face grew redder and redder. Just as Chu Ning couldn't bear it anymore and was about to stop teasing him, Yan Shen stammered and whispered, "Good luck."

Chu Ning was dumbfounded. Zhou Wei moved closer without any regard for his image, saying with a smile, "What? Young Master Yan? What did you say?"

They had clearly heard what Yan Shen had said, but when they saw Yan Shen's reaction, everyone found it extremely interesting, especially Chu Ning.

In her impression, Yan Shen had always been an aloof scholar. After becoming friends with him, he also seemed steady and reliable. This was the first time she had seen him look so embarrassed.

"What did you say, Yan Shen? I didn't hear it clearly!" Chu Ning smiled maliciously.

As she spoke, she even asked Su Ming and Zhou Wei, "Did you two hear what he said?"

Su Ming and Zhou Wei shook their heads repeatedly. Yan Shen looked at Chu Ning's smiling eyes, and his heart softened, seemingly touched by someone.

He said softly, "Come on, we can do it." However, he was thinking to himself that such perfunctory words were not what he really wanted to say.

Yan Shen knew what he wanted to say — he wanted to say that he would definitely protect her.

Zhou Wei keenly felt the romance in the air. He vigilantly sized Yan Shen and Chu Ning up. In the end, he revealed an inexplicable and subtle smile.

"What else do you have in mind, Young Master Su?" Chu Ning stretched.

Su Ming thought about it carefully for a moment and realized that there was nothing much else. After all, Chu Ning had indeed thought things through. He shook his head and said, "It's nothing. Everyone, you can leave now. Go back and rest early to recharge your batteries."

Zhou Wei was the first to walk out. He was still in a hurry to clean up the mess in the Zhou family. After all, Old Master Zhou did not have many days left to live. He had to take advantage of the huge burden pressing down on his shoulders to quickly overhaul the Zhou family.

Of course, Chu Ning went with Yan Shen. As they walked, Chu Ning suddenly said, "You..."

However, she did not continue. Perhaps Chu Ning did not know what she wanted to ask.

In the end, she simply smiled at Yan Shen. "It's nothing. Let's go. I'm a little tired."

Yan Shen suppressed all his doubts and nodded calmly. Whatever she wanted to say, no matter what it was, was like a huge mountain to him. That diagnosis report was like a knife that cut off his future.

The atmosphere between the two of them was calm and heavy. They returned to their rooms deep in their own thoughts.

Chu Ning stood on the balcony and looked at the endless sea. Her mind gradually emptied.

After calming down, Chu Ning took out her phone and called Lu Chao. "Hello? How's the progress?"

Lu Chao's eyes were fixed on the screen. He looked at the attacks that could not even break through his firewall. He said excitedly, "Everything is going well. Those pieces of trash can't even get past my firewall!"

All of this was within Chu Ning's expectations. After all, she knew from Zhou Hao's attitude that the Zhou family was not involved in internet-related matters.

When Chu Ning thought that she would be able to get back Cloud Shopping soon, the inexplicable disappointment she felt earlier dissipated. She could not help but remind him, "Don't let your guard down. Be careful of Zhou Hao's counterattack."

Lu Chao loudly said that he understood, and Chu Ning hung up the phone with relief.

Unexpectedly, just as she finished washing up and was about to rest, she received a call from Zhou Wei. "Hello? Why are you calling me so late at night?"

Zhou Wei couldn't hide the ease and joy in his voice. "It's all because of Zhou Hao. Cloud Shopping is paralyzed. He called me."

Chu Ning was rendered speechless by Zhou Hao's actions. "Don't tell me he's thinking of using the Zhou family to deal with me?"

Zhou Wei calmly said, "President Chu is wise and brilliant. You're right." He continued to describe Zhou Hao's crazy actions. "He asked Zhou Yi to kill you, but before Zhou Yi could do anything, you attacked him first. Of course, he wanted the Zhou family to put pressure on the Lu family and Zhou Yi. That way, he could kill two birds with one stone."

"Has he always been so optimistic?" Chu Ning had no words.

Zhou Wei laughed out loud. "Haha, your description is so accurate. That's right. He's always been dreaming."
