Chapter 141: A real lesson
“Master Jun, a large part of the company staff have resigned, where are you!” The secretary’s voice was filled with anxiety and helplessness, there should be someone behind the Sakura Shang Group, the company collapsed faster than one could imagine, and at this time Asher was nowhere to be seen, anyone’s heart amounted to no bottom.
Asher couldn’t lift his mind at all when he couldn’t hear the voice he was longing for, and he hung up after a few confused answers, this time, he actually passed out.
Lena is left for dinner and Lily herself goes upstairs to call Asher before dinner, but there is no response from the house. Lily is much more understanding of her son than Grandpa Jun and assumes that it is Asher who does not want to see Lena, so she does not push it.
This went on into the night and no one noticed Asher who had passed out in the room until he woke up on his own.
Asher opened his eyes and looked at where he was and the sky outside, tiredly he got up from the floor that was pinching him raw and collapsed on the big soft bed, he didn’t want to eat or sleep now, his head was blank with only Mia’s flower like face and the last merciless look she gave him.
I don’t know how long I let this blank state last, but Asher slowly climbed to his feet and poured himself a glass of water, when a knock from a subordinate sounded outside, “Young master, the master asked me to ask you if you would like a midnight snack.”
Asher’s voice was breathless, “No, go down, you don’t have to come back without my summons.”
The subordinate hesitated for a moment and added, “Grandpa’s anger has subsided and asked me to prepare your evening meal, would you like to come out and have some?”
Grandpa Jun’s orders Asher had never disobeyed, but this time was an exception and his voice had taken on a bit of impatience, “Don’t eat, no more questions.”
The footsteps of the servant faded away.
Asher rubbed his aching temples and looked out into the dark night, not a star in sight, just like his dark, lightless life.
The next morning Lily herself came knocking on the door to get him to go out to eat, Asher still wouldn’t open it, he was now in a grumpy mood and his tone wasn’t too good, he just pissed Lily off, “I’m not eating, you all leave me alone!”
It’s not often that Asher gets this down in the dumps, but this time it hit him really hard.
After that morning, no one came looking for Asher to go out again, because Grandpa Jun gave the order that he wanted Asher to calm down, some things can’t be solved by what the sidekick said, it’s up to Asher to figure it out.
But he really underestimated his grandson’s dead brain, and Asher starved himself for three days straight.
Every day for the past few days, a large group of reporters would gather in front of Jun’s house, stopping everyone who came out of Jun’s house, including not only Grandpa Jun, Jun Haotian and Lily, but also the servants who bought food from Jun’s house, etc.
In this way, the servant who bought the groceries was not well qualified and could not tell what issues were important or unimportant, but she apparently did not think Asher’s hunger strike was anything too serious to talk about, and the news that Asher had not eaten for three days soon went viral.
Namgung asks to be the first to know the news, at a time when he is being left at Mia’s home to do everything she instructs him to do. This includes making breakfast, lunch and dinner love meals, and also kissing with her.
Everything that Namgung had once dreamed of, now made him feel no joy, because he could see the deep melancholy in Mia’s eyes.
Mia tried to try to forget Asher, but the more she tried, the more the memories of Asher grew deeper, and there was talk of using another person to mend the emotional wounds in her heart, a method she had tried, even going so far as to use Namgung to ask, but it still didn’t work.
Mia now both wants to see Asher and hates him with a passion, analyzing Asher from whatever information she can get and trying to avoid hearing anything about Asher.
While walking on the street, Mia heard, “I heard that Master Jun of the Sakura Shang Group is going on a hunger strike to die because of his failed career.”
Her mind instantly turned into a blank. asher was going on a hunger strike to die? How had she never heard that kind of news before, she thought for a second, Asher wasn’t that kind of person, how could he have thoughts of seeking because of some blow.
Various thoughts came and went in Mia’s heart, unable to find an outlet to vent them, and Nangong asked, taking her by the shoulders and gazing at Mia’s steeply pale face, the look on her face was even more complicated than hers.
These three days together are enough for Namgung to see how deep Mia’s feelings for Asher are, and enough for him to take back his greedy thoughts that he wanted to take Mia for himself before, and return to his gentle and kind nature.
Nangong asks all day, figuring out how to get Mia to face up to her own feelings, so that the lovers can stop suffering.
What’s happening now seems to be an opportunity for him to use what Asher is doing to help him impress Mia, who can’t possibly be unmoved by the fact that the man she loves wants to die for her.
“Mia , I want to talk to you about something, can you be patient and listen to the whole thing?” Nangong asked with a soft voice as he tugged Mia to sit down on the park bench.
Mia nodded in silence.
Nangong asked, pinning a strand of Mia’s sideburns spilling down the side of her face back behind her ear, and continued, “You don’t feel happy with me, do you? I know that it’s not me you like.”
Before he could finish, Mia cut him off, “You need to stop saying that.”
Nangong asked but ignored her and continued, “You actually know yourself, who you like, but you refuse to face up to your feelings, Mia , do you think it’s fun to torture each other like this?”
Mia’s demeanor broke down a bit more and she said hysterically, “Are you going to ask me to forgive the person who killed my child with his own hands?”
Nangong asked, frowning and hesitantly saying, “Actually, I think that maybe what happened that day was really a misunderstanding, and I think that someone like Asher, who dares to do what he does, you should give him a chance to explain.”
Nangong asked with an earnest tone and a slight sadness on his face, his handsome face no longer had the sunshine it once had, but it was still gentle and firm.
Mia burst into tears, curling her legs and burying her face deep into her knees as she sobbed, responding, “But I’m afraid to listen to him, what if that’s the truth?”
Nangong asked as he gently swept Mia into his arms, unable to bear to see her crying appearance, but still insisted on finishing, “No, you have to trust the person you love, since he is willing to give you an explanation, he must have his reasons.”
Mia was swayed by Namco’s words and she hesitantly asked, “Really?”
Nangong asked, nodding as Mia cupped her cheeks in silent thought.
The sun was beating through the clouds and hitting Mia’s hair, kissing the tips like the hands of the gentlest lover.
It not only caresses Mia, but also gently soothes a desperate Asher.
Three days of complete calmness had allowed Asher to think things through, but not the good Grandpa Jun wanted him to think through.
He emerged from the closed door of his room, which had been closed for three days, that afternoon, and found his family, all gathered in the living room, analyzing his problem with a sorrowful frown.
Grandpa Jun’s eyes were red-blooded and when he saw Asher come out, he gave a small smile, but his voice was still commanding, “Out? Have you thought it through?”
Asher starts by giving Grandpa Jun an apology, “I’m sorry, Grandpa.” Then said something that made Grandpa Jun vomit blood like hell, “I still like Mia and, am not going to marry her.”
Grandpa Jun also hadn’t rested well for a few days, and all of a sudden, his eyes blackened with anger and he fell back to sit on the sofa, Jun Haotian hurriedly went over to help him, and with a face of hatred, he yelled at Asher, “Are you trying to piss off your grandfather to death? You rebellious son!”
Lily also couldn’t understand Asher thought for three days and came out with such a result, she asked Asher with tears in her eyes, “Son, what is this for you! What’s so good about that woman that wrecked you like this, she’s simply a demon!”
Asher also felt guilty for making his grandfather so angry, and after a long moment of agonizing, he decided to stick to his guns, but first he had to take care of himself, and he turned to a dumbfounded servant and said, “Prepare my dinner.”
The servant also did not want to get involved in these matters, as soon as he saw that the Lord of the Jun family was in a very violent mood, the city gate was on fire, so he should not be affected by the fire, he immediately led the order to inform the cook, and then hid in the kitchen and did not come out.
Asher sat on the other side of the couch and continued to tell a sober Grandpa Jun, “I was hoping, also, that you guys would stay out of my business.”
Grandpa Jun’s breath that had just been relieved by hearing this almost didn’t come up again, and his voice trembled as he pointed at Asher, “Sinful ah, to be charmed by a woman like this, aren’t you forcing my hand?”
Hearing Grandpa Jun say that, Asher’s heart steeped in coldness, Grandpa Jun had reached this position today, his methods were naturally extraordinary, he could almost imagine what was about to hit Mia next if he persisted in his obsession.
I’m afraid it’s not just going to make things difficult for Mia in her life and career, Asher says darkly, but if Grandpa Jun must intervene in this matter, it might end up putting Mia’s life in danger.
He decided to play what was always his best offense and reason with Grandpa Jun. Growing up Asher was known for being articulate, and while he was usually always cold, that didn’t mean he lacked the ability to communicate with people.
“Grandpa, you have to believe me, it’s not that I can’t handle this relationship well, it’s just that I need time.” Asher said sincerely, only before he could finish all his words, Grandpa Jun had interrupted him.
Jun Haotian supported Grandpa Jun, who was shaking with anger, and his brow was furrowed, as if he hesitated whether to help his son or to obey his own father.
Anyone has a youthful moment, and Asher’s previous actions were completely understandable, but not having a good understanding after three days of introspection, such would not be agreeable to Jun Haotian, who persuaded Asher before Grandpa Jun could drink and scold.
“You might want to consider the consequences of getting your grandfather hot under the collar, not to mention the woman he likes, even if it’s you, he’ll give it a good toss.”
