Chen Liling and Chen Guiren were stunned.
"What?"
Jianyu said expressionlessly. "Yes. I want to be the CEO again. I want to get back to work."
"But why so suddenly? What happened? Is everything alright with Serena?"
"Mom, please." He said with a tone of finality. "I don't want to talk about it."
Chen Liling was getting worried.
Her son looked so different tonight. It felt like he had built huge walls around his heart. He had changed and drastically. There was a storm in his eyes, which also looked lifeless at the same time.
Something terrible must have happened between them.
Did they fight? Did they break up?
Chen Liling said, "First, sit down Jianyu. I will make your favorite hot chocolate for you-"
"Mom, enough. I just came to tell you that I want to be back."
She was startled with his cold tone. He had never talked like that. Chen Guiren squinted his eyes.
