Chapter 170 consideration

Luo Xichen fell silent after Wen Lan's sudden words, his dark eyes slowly turning dark.

Sha Zhixing stood not far away and looked at him quietly, not missing the reaction on his face. She frowned slightly.

What did Auntie Lan say to make him show such an expression?

Luo Xichen tightened his grip on the phone, his knuckles turning white due to excessive force.

After a minute or two of silence, he asked in a cold voice, "Why did you make such an arrangement all of a sudden?"

Wen Lan was quiet for a few seconds and her voice was very calm. "Your father and I decided on this together. The domestic business of the company has been doing very well in recent years. We don't need to spend too much effort. Your father is enough to manage the company here alone. Your father has always valued the company in Northern Ireland very much. You know that. He is worried about letting others manage it. Grandfather and Rong Ci also live there. You haven't seen them for so long. Grandfather misses you very much. It's a good time for you to go!"

Wen Lan said a lot at once, a long series of words. Every word she said was the truth, without a single flaw.

"How long will it take?" Luo Xichen asked again.

Wen Lan was silent for a moment and said, "Two years."

Luo Xichen's face darkened again after her words.

Two years...

Such a long time, it should be enough to turn the world upside down, right?

"Xichen, aren't you willing?" Wen Lan asked tentatively.

Luo Xichen came back to his senses after her words. There was no emotion in his voice. "Mom, give me a week to think about it."

Wen Lan could not force him to do anything. Since he had said so, she did not pester him to give an answer. That was not her personality.

"Mom is waiting for your answer," she said curtly and hung up the phone.

Her eyes fell on the newspaper in her hand again. She looked at Luo Xichen and Sha Zhixing, who were holding hands, and her eyes darkened.

She did not know how reliable the news was this time. If it was not true, it would be for the best...

Luo Xichen stood quietly in front of the large French window in the room. He looked out of the window at the rippling sea, and his eyes darkened bit by bit.

Grandfather was there, Rong Ci was there, and the Luo family had their own home there. It was not a big deal to go to Northern Ireland, but if he went, what would happen to Zhixing?

Sha Zhixing was the only daughter of the Sha family. An Xin and her husband had raised her in their hands, and she had never left her parents since she was young. Luo Xichen knew that An Xin would not be willing to let her go so far away.

Even if she agreed to let Sha Zhixing leave her family and go abroad with him, Luo Xichen would not be so cruel.

Northern Ireland was different from T City. Although the two of them were separated from their families now, they were at least close to each other and could get together whenever they wanted. However, would it still be so convenient if they went to Northern Ireland?

Moreover, he did not know what Sha Zhixing was thinking.

Would she be willing to go with him?

Sha Zhixing did not hear the contents of Wen Lan's phone call just now. She only heard a few words from Luo Xichen, but she could not guess what exactly they were talking about.

She quietly watched his handsome back under the light. She walked step by step to the French window, looked up at him, and asked softly, "What's wrong?"

Luo Xichen turned his head after her words and looked at her fixedly. The corners of his lips twitched, but he did not say anything.

Sha Zhixing observed his expression and the confusion in her eyes grew.

What happened?
