This scene was actually something Su Yang had anticipated.
But it didn't matter. Su Yang's mission was complete. Whether Li Yue followed Su Yang or not at this point was not important.
Su Yang felt there was no need to be so persistent about something that was a matter of mutual consent. Li Yue was an intelligent person.
She could either leave with Su Yang or stay here and part ways with him.
His lips pressed together as he looked at Li Yue, Su Yang remained silent, having already stated his answer.
Li Yue's expression was one of deep sadness.
"Su Yang, you promised you would treat me well."
"I did, and I will. If you come with me, I will definitely treat you well."
"But I can't leave the capital."
Upon hearing this, Su Yang looked at Li Yue and said, "I can't stay in the capital forever either."
After a moment of stalemate, Li Yue finally left the ward.
"President Li..." Xie Feng called out as Li Yue left.
He didn't know the relationship between Su Yang and Li Yue, nor what was happening at the moment, but he could sense something.
"Mr. Su, romantic entanglements are not suitable at this time. They will become a weakness on your path forward."
Hearing Xie Feng's words, Su Yang looked at him and said, "Mr. Xie, since you are my man now, we are on the same side. I will not hide anything from you."
"Oh? What is it? Mr. Su can trust me. I will be loyal to you. My life belongs to Mr. Su."
"I truly need your help, but in the short term, I may not focus on this aspect. I want to accumulate resources first, and only after I have enough resources will I develop things in Long Guo."
Hearing Su Yang's words, Xie Feng looked at him and pondered, "How long will it take you to accumulate resources? Mr. Su, you know I am not young, and I may not be able to help you for much longer. You need to think this through."
"Two to three years. Can you wait, Mr. Xie?"
Su Yang didn't know the exact timeframe, but he knew Xie Feng was getting on in years.
It was also difficult for the work assigned by Long Guo to help Su Yang.
Regardless of how many resources Su Yang accumulated in two to three years, he believed he would develop in Long Guo afterward.
"Two to three years is acceptable. I believe in Mr. Xie's abilities, and you will reach your peak within ten years."
Hearing Xie Feng's words, Su Yang felt a sense of accomplishment.
"Thank you, Mr. Xie. For the next two to three years, you can either follow me or stay in my company. Once I have accumulated enough resources, I will definitely develop in Long Guo."
Xie Feng nodded. "Alright. I am not one to move around much; I prefer to use my brain more. For these three years, please provide me with a place to live, Mr. Su. I will not disappoint your expectations."
"Of course. You don't need to worry about food, clothing, housing, or transportation. During these years, anything you desire, be it money or other things, I will fulfill."
"Thank you, Mr. Su."
After they finished speaking, Su Yang went to complete the discharge procedures.
Originally, Li Yue might have tried to stop him, but seeing Su Yang's firm resolve to leave, she didn't hinder him any further.
Su Yang had finished all his business in the capital and did not linger. Chu Tianye had already dispatched a private jet to pick them up.
Before leaving, Su Yang went to collect the specialty gifts from Shangguan Qianji. When he arrived at the plaza below, he saw a large truck with Su Yang's name on it, and he was dumbfounded.
"Shangguan Qianji... are you sick..."
Su Yang hadn't expected such a large quantity. He knew a lot of things, so he had asked Chu Tianye to send people to help move them onto the plane.
Now, seeing this truck, which had two cargo compartments, he realized that even if they put everything into the plane, it wouldn't fit.
Su Yang suppressed his anger and refrained from calling Shangguan Qianji to scold him.
"Boss, what's in here? There's so much!" Jiang Hei said, adjusting his glasses.
Su Yang took a deep breath and handed the key given by Shangguan Qianji to Jiang Hei. "Find someone, give them some money, and have them drive this truck back to Song Hai."
"Understood."
Although he didn't know what was inside, Jiang Hei went to find someone.
He found a truck driver, gave him a few thousand yuan, and asked for his assistance in driving it back to Song Hai.
Then, Su Yang and his group boarded the plane back to Song Hai.
Around eight or nine in the evening, Su Yang arrived in Song Hai.
It had been a long time since Su Yang last returned to Song Hai.
After getting off the plane, Su Yang stood still, taking a deep breath and savoring the air of Song Hai.
"The air in Song Hai smells better," Su Yang remarked.
Yang Mangge and the others had also learned of Su Yang's return and were waiting at the airport early.
Only Su Yang's parents, due to the late hour, had not come.
"I missed you so much."
Su Yang said, embracing Yang Mangge.
Yang Mangge's face immediately turned red. "Did you miss me all this time and not come back?"
"I had things to attend to. I couldn't help it."
"I know you're busy. I don't blame you."
Su Yang had been with many women, but no matter whom he met, he felt Yang Mangge was still a little bit different.
"I'll make it up to you tonight." Su Yang pinched Yang Mangge's waist.
Yang Mangge's face flushed crimson. "You're still injured. Rest properly!"
"Don't you trust my abilities?" Su Yang chuckled.
"What about the other sisters?"
It wasn't that she didn't want to be with Su Yang, but Yang Mangge still had to maintain appearances for the others.
As soon as she mentioned it, the others started to tease.
"One by one. I'll be in Song Hai for several days this time."
After Su Yang spoke, he led the group back to the villa.
This was originally a summer resort, a tourist project, but Su Yang had bought it outright. He had purchased many properties when he had the funds.
After becoming Su Yang's property, the place was left vacant, becoming a private residence with no one living in it.
It wasn't until a few days ago that Su Yang had Yang Mangge and the others move in.
The place was a small mountain with scattered villas. The main residence was at the summit.
That evening, Su Yang and the group had dinner. After dinner, he sent everyone except Yang Mangge to another location.
"Why did you send them all away?"
Yang Mangge asked, placing her hand on Su Yang's shoulder.
"If they heard any noise here, wouldn't they come and ruin our good time?"
Yang Mangge didn't speak, as this had happened before.
Although Yang Mangge could accept the others, no one was willing to share a man, especially a man as outstanding as Su Yang.
"That's one reason, but there's another."
Hearing this, Yang Mangge looked at Su Yang and asked, "What reason?"
"I have something to tell you."
"Tell me?"
"Uh... you can't be angry if I tell you."
Yang Mangge looked at Su Yang, finding him strangely peculiar today.
"Why are you acting so strange since you came back today? When have I ever been angry with you? It's just that two more sisters have joined. What is it?"
Indeed, if she could tolerate so many women, what else could make her angry?
Su Yang only remembered after returning and seeing Chu Tianye.
"I adopted an orphan outside. Her mother died and entrusted her to my care."
"Oh? When was this?"
Although she had returned with Chu Tianye, Chu Tianye knew this was not something he should say, so he hadn't told Yang Mangge earlier.
Seeing no anger on Yang Mangge's face, Su Yang breathed a sigh of relief.
"She was with Chu Tianye before. When he returned, he was afraid you would be angry, so he kept her outside for now. I wanted to tell you first before letting her come back."
Hearing this, Yang Mangge pinched Su Yang's waist and said playfully, "This is a good thing! How could I be angry?"
"Alright, alright. It was my chivalry. I'll have Chu Tianye bring her back tomorrow."
