20 Unexpected Moment (2)

As Jiang Yanxu was about to lock the bedroom door, Song Yutong walked over to him. Jiang Yanxu scarcely noticed his assistant's existence until Song Yutong told behind him, "President Jiang, Director Zhang just emailed me. He said that someone looks for you."

Jiang Yanxu turned toward Song Yutong. He asked curiously, "Who?"

Song Yutong shook his head weakly, then replied in a feeble voice, "Director Zhang doesn't know him either. He said that guy just asked where you were and then left."

Hearing the explanation, Jiang Yanxu suddenly sneered, "It must be Yufan."

"Hmm, but this is quite suspicious, sir." Song Yutong revealed, "I'm afraid it's your father's rival underlings, considering that one of your subordinates had found that they had hacked the company email."

Jiang Yanxu massaged the bridge of his nose, saying, "No way. If it was an underling of the Song Family, they wouldn't want to talk to me directly. They might be able to spy on me like they used to, but they're chicken. They can't even meet me in person."

The boss's words sounded logical. Song Yutong nodded his head.

Seeing that Song Yutong was concerned about the company, Jiang Yanxu reached out, squeezed Song Yutong's shoulder, then told, "The Song family won't have anything to do with me if they don't cross the line."

Jiang Yanxu was about to leave, but short he remembered something, so he asked, "By the way, where is the defensive document?" Jiang Yanxu's tone sounded urgent.

Song Yutong got confused at first, so he wondered, "Which document, sir?"

Jiang Yanxu explained, "The defensive document my father left for the Yan Family. Where is it?"

Understanding, in the end, Song Yutong replied straightforwardly, "Oh, it is now held by Lawyer Wen, sir. The document will be handed over if you have talked about it to the Yan Family."

Frowning, Jiang Yanxu learned that Wen Jie wasn't a trustworthy person. Based on his memories, Wen Jie was the one who fully supported Tang Shiliu to confiscate his property. So, he then said in a commanding tone, "Contact Liang Mingcao. I want him to keep it for me."

Song Yutong was an obedient person. He didn't even interrupt but replied, "I can talk to him when we return, sir."

"Can't you contact him now?" Jiang Yanxu asked impatiently.

"Sure, I can, sir. But wouldn't it be better if we talk to him face-to-face? What's more, Lawyer Wen is a lawyer assigned by your father," Song Yutong suggested.

Hearing Song Yutong's reasonable words, Jiang Yanxu thought for a moment. A few seconds later he agreed. "I don't like that lawyer, but if you think it's better, I'll leave it all to you, okay?"

Song Yutong nodded confidently. "You can count on me, sir."

Jiang Yanxu grinned hearing that convincing word. He then said, "Then take your time. Just have fun as long as you're here."

Song Yutong smiled. He heartily responded, "Thank you, sir. Of course, as long as we're not in the office."

After their conversation, Jiang Yanxu went to the nearest train station. With the help of some local people, he finally arrived 15 minutes before the train departed.

Along the way, time wasn't too tiresome. The scenery was quite remarkable, Jiang Yanxu quite enjoyed it, so the 3 hours trip didn't fly with boredom.

Arriving in Firenze City, it took 15 minutes to arrive at the Uffizi Gallery. Jiang Yanxu looked for Wen Huiyi around the Gallery, but he couldn't find him. In the end, he entered the queue in the Gallery.

When it was his turn, Jiang Yanxu walked in and stared at the gallery hall, and unawares he got a little surprised.

How come? This was his first time entering an art gallery, presently making him fall in love with art.

He had never been interested in paintings and what he hated the most was Yan An's paintings. But now, everything was opposing his past, once he saw the various incredible paintings on display, he thought that they all looked amazing.

Walking through the corridor, Jiang Yanxu was drawn to one of the large paintings. He stopped in front of the painting and looked up to see all the old-looking oil-painted.

The painting had illustrations of some royal women and some men with spears. They didn't illustrate disarray but exhilaration. Jiang Yanxu was muted for a moment thinking about the actual meaning of the painting, but he gave up in the end.

When he was about to check through the next few paintings, his eyes accidentally caught a figure from the distance staring at the painting gravely, making him suddenly halt.

Someone he saw made him suddenly gasp in surprise until his eyes looked like they were going to pop out!

He ... is it him?

Jiang Yanxu froze in silence, unable to hear any human voices in the Gallery other than his conscience-wondering voice. His eyes couldn't take his eyes off the figure one bit, he even forgot to take a breath!

He didn't panic but the shock and happiness when he saw Yan An once again, almost made him show whimper or scream!

Jiang Yanxu seemed to want to approach him. He pushed himself with all his strength until he finally took it one step at a time. Yet, a few meters nearby Yan An, he stopped all of a sudden.

From another direction, someone came over to Yan An. The two of them talked for a while, then moved on to another painting.

Jiang Yanxu stood still in the same spot. Seeing Yan An move to a painting some distance away, his resolve started to loosen a bit.

The doubt within him suddenly felt: what if Yan An didn't want to see me anymore? What if Yan An doesn't want to forgive him? He was overwhelmed by these questions. Even though he knew Yan An wasn't that kind of man but anticipating that people could change at any time.

However, after convincing himself, his self-confidence was slowly building up. He took several deep breaths, then he started to take step by step toward Yan An.
