Chapter 201: Chapter 201: The Son is the Shared Treasure of both Parents

In Cheng Ye’s eyes, the marriage and son that Yan Han thought he had, were merely laughable existences.

Cheng Ye always emphasized ’emotions’.

As for Yan Han, his greatest insecurity in his relationship with Zhu Qianying, was indeed ’emotions’.

The relationship he had with Zhu Qianying stemmed from a deal, so even he had to admit that at the beginning, there was definitely no emotional connection between the two of them.

During their marriage, perhaps there were some feelings after all, as they had spent so much time together.

But how much of that affection still exists now? Even Yan Han himself wasn’t confident, let alone Cheng Ye, who was his rival.

So, emotions became the biggest weakness in their relationship.

Cheng Ye, on the other hand, seemed to be the complete opposite.

He didn’t have a marriage or a son with Zhu Qianying.

But, they had been comrades-in-arms for nearly ten years, even if just in their careers, they certainly shared a special understanding and trust that others didn’t possess.

Perhaps even, dependence.

However, Yan Han didn’t share any of these with Zhu Qianying.

Or, the most optimistic thought would be that Zhu Qianying currently has no special feelings, which could be described as love, for either him, Yan Han, or Cheng Ye.

Of course, there should be none. Otherwise, Yan Han didn’t think a woman like Zhu Qianying would compromise herself for love.

So, right now, he and Cheng Ye could essentially be considered as at the same starting point.

He held his marriage and son, while Cheng Ye had understanding, trust, and dependence.

From a rational standpoint, Yan Han had to admit that he was at a disadvantage.

Because, it was clear that each of the three elements Cheng Ye had -- understanding, trust, and dependence -- if taken individually, could potentially brew feelings. With all three of them, the chance for feelings to sprout was multiplied.

All he had in comparison was his marriage and son.

Marriage, if supported equally by both partners, is a synonym for happiness.

But if only one partner is desperately supporting it, like he has been doing these past few years, the loneliness and discomfort are something only he could relate to.

He had to admit that a marriage without emotions and supported single-handedly was nothing but a shell.

No matter how glamorous it looked from the outside, it was in essence, a mere fragile pretense.

So, the only bargaining chip left for him now was his son!

Their son was the precious gem that both he and Zhu Qianying shared, they both have the same responsibility and expectations for their son.

The understanding, trust, and dependence between Cheng Ye and Zhu Qianying might disappear.

But their son will not!

Thinking about this, Yan Han was filled with immense hope and determination!

"Mr. Cheng, thank you for teaching me such a valuable lesson! Indeed, a son can be made, but once he is born, he becomes the eternal treasure of both me and Zhu Qianying. As long as we exist, so will he! As for feelings, they can’t be fabricated. Moreover, they are elusive and ever-changing!"

Yan Han’s words finally wiped off the faint smile that had been on Cheng Ye’s face.

The second confrontation between the two, albeit reluctantly, ended in a draw.

Having left someone to watch Zhu Qianying’s residence, Yan Han checked into a hotel near Ying Jewelry to facilitate communication or meetings with Jack and Mike, and of course, Cheng Ye.

Yan Han was very clear that the competition between him and Cheng Ye had only just begun.

And at this moment, the protagonist that led Yan Han to travel thousands of kilometers for her was attending an International Jewelry Seminar in Domestic.

A few days ago, when she insisted on going back home, knowing he couldn’t stop her, Cheng Ye had to agree under the condition that she would also attend an International Jewelry Seminar in Domestic. Only then, could she get a half-month leave.

When Yan Han was overseas looking for her, Zhu Qianying had already returned to Domestic with her mother. However, since they had previously left the country through less conventional ways five years ago, this time, she could only return in the same fashion.

Her sister Zhu Qianyu picked up their mother, Chen Jing, and brought her to temporary accommodation in R City. Zhu Qianying, on the other hand, drove an SUV from the Ji Family Residence, hit the highway and drove for nearly ten hours to finally reach the location of the seminar.

Although she was back home, she was still very cautious and tried to refrain from any actions that could leave traces or records on the internet.

It wasn’t that she was trying to avoid Yan Han, she just didn’t want her hard-earned vacation to be ruined by him.

The detail about Yan Han looking for her for the past five years was something she only recently heard from Ji Huan.

He likely knew about it but never mentioned it, probably because he didn’t think it necessary.

When she decided to leave back then, the Ji Family knew that she didn’t want to turn back and had no plans to do so.

However, she had sent the baby boy back to the country, so it was no surprise that Ji Huan had his suspicions.

So, when Ji Huan told her that Yan Han had been looking for her all these years, and that he and Yi Wei were still just friends, all Zhu Qianying said was "Thank you".

Yes, all she could say was "Thank you".

Thank you for Ji Huan’s concern, for his notification and for his reminder.

The Ji Family members, they really were all wise people.

The seminar was being held in S City. Ying Jewelry also had a branch in S City, so Zhu Qianying decided to stay in the staff apartment there. And thus, she attended the seminar for three consecutive days.

Seeing that the seminar was about to end in the afternoon, Zhu Qianying began planning her next moves.

Of course, what she wanted most at the moment was to see her son immediately.

But she didn’t want to alarm the Yan Family, let alone encounter Yan Han himself. Even Yan Bo and his wife, she didn’t want to meet.

For her, it wasn’t that she couldn’t face the Yan Family members, she just felt it unnecessary to do so.

From the moment she left them, she cut off the Yan Family from her life. And now, she had no intention of letting them back in.

During the break, Zhu Qianying made a call to Ji Huan.

"Ying Zi, has the meeting ended?"

"Not yet, there’s still an afternoon left." Zhu Qianying was pondering how to propose her request when she heard Ji Huan say, "Are you missing your son?"

Caught by surprise, Zhu Qianying nodded and admitted, "Yes, I do miss him a lot. Is there any way you could get our son out for me? I don’t want to see the Yan Family."

There was silence on the other end of the phone, "Let me think about it. I’ll call you later!"

Zhu Qianying understood the difficulty of this task, complied, and then both of them hung up after wishing each other goodbye.

Why didn’t she want to see the Yan Family?

Zhui Qianying wasn’t sure herself. But she just felt there was no need to see them.

After the seminar ended, Zhu Qianying drove out of S City directly, got on the highway, and headed towards R City.
