Stealing The Wind But Not The Moon [Completed]

13. Ruyi's Head And Ivory Hub, Exquisite.

Chu Zhichen preferred to stay at home and rarely ventured out. Each morning, he dedicated his time to reading books and newspapers. His only indulgence was locking himself in his room and enjoying a cigar.

Perhaps due to his calm demeanor, Mrs. Chu grew concerned and asked him about his plans for the future.

With a half-joking tone, Chu Zhichen replied with four words: maintain a low profile.

He repeatedly pondered over Xiang Mingzhang's remarks about Yisi and Duheng, as well as the possibility of Li Zangqiu hiding any secrets during his tenure as president of the company.

Chu Zhichen conducted some research and discovered that Duheng was established only five years ago, yet its development had been remarkably fast. Many of its customers were former partners of Yisi.

Aside from customers, what about the technology?

How much of Yisi's resources had been "migrated"?

Chu Zhichen was determined to find out, but delving into such matters required influence and abilities that ordinary individuals didn't possess. It would take time to uncover the truth.

Those with the power to intervene and effect change within Yisi...

That would be Xiangyue.

Chu Zhichen couldn't adequately express his feelings towards Xiang Mingzhang. It was too simplistic to say whether he admired or despised him. As an adult, after this experience, what mattered was what was useful or useless.

This time, he felt impatient. Upon finding himself in this unfamiliar time and space, he yearned to make a mark on this world to establish a sense of security. He wasn't afraid of failure. If he could learn valuable lessons, there was no need for regret.

Chu Zhichen pondered for a long time, running his fingers on the corner of a page in the book to feel its warmth. At that moment, his sister Chu Shihui appeared in the doorway, her figure swaying slightly. She halted, raised her hand, and knocked on the door frame.

"Please come in," Chu Zhichen invited her.

Chu Shihui entered the room, entering Chu Zhichen's personal space for the first time. She seemed a bit awkward, hesitating between the sofa and armchair. She asked, "Why did you move to the guest room?"

Chu Zhichen swiftly provided a perfect answer, "I don't remember the past, and I can't chase the future, so I'm starting a new life."

Chu Shihui nodded, wasting no time beating around the bush. She asked directly, "When you previously mentioned leaving me some money from selling equity to start a company, were you serious?"

"Yes, how could I lie to you?" Chu Zhichen responded earnestly. "Just to be on the safe side, let Mom contact a lawyer to formalize it with a notarization."

Chu Shihui immediately said, "I'm not doubting you, I just don't understand why you would be willing to do this."

Chu Zhichen explained, "The only thing remaining in our family is your stake in Yisi. Joining Yisi and working there would be the best option. Unfortunately, the current circumstances are unclear. Starting your own business would not be a bad choice either. This is just a decision. You're an adult, choose what you like and don't feel restricted."

Chu Shihui fell silent for a while, then walked up to Chu Zhichen and sat down. She said, "I want to join Yisi. I have an interest in computers, and I miss Dad."

Chu Zhichen felt a touch of emotion. This girl, despite being from a wealthy family, wasn't fragile. She displayed strength, motivation, and had consistently achieved top grades.
