Chapter 954: Bad Result!
“Well, that is not something to be bragging about, since I am a strategist hired by the Heir, and it is my duty to do those things for him.”
“But I only intended to work for him for just five years!”
“I could either leave or continue after five years, which should have been totally up to me.”
“The Heir has changed a great deal, during the past two years. He is no longer Lord Ling, who begged me to stay by his side and brainstorm for him. I can’t change him, so I had no choice, but to leave him. I owe him nothing after working for him for five years, so it is totally right for me to leave him now.”
“However, when he heard the news, he refused to let me go and offered me many bonus conditions. I am a strategist, but I am not working for money. I have my own ambitions. The Heir has gotten his position, and I can not stay, so I turned him down.”
As he spoke of this, Xie Yan shook his head and let out an ironic smile.
Xie Yan had worked devotedly for him for five years, and when he left, he decided not to mention anything about the Heir. It was a rule he had been taught since childhood and something he stuck to.
Xie Yan had worked for two people before the Heir, whom Xie Yan never mentioned. So Xie Yan had his own rules, but the Heir was trying to have him killed!
“The Heir no longer cares for me. He humiliated me, and injured me every single day instead of just killing me directly. He wanted me to die in pain! However, I was lucky enough to escape the hunt, all the way from the capital to Bingzhou, but those hunters were all pursuing me, before I luckily…”
“Before I luckily met you, Lady Chaoyan. I was saved.”
“I worked for him for five years, without any selfishness, but see how I have ended up.” Xie Yan kept shaking his head, showing an ironic smile.
Gu Chaoyan looked at Xie Yan with emotions.
She was quite surprised by how Xie Yan turned out to be.
She had had a few meetings with Xie Yan in the capital, and she had gotten an impression that Xie Yan was just a follower that did terrible deeds with Zhou Huailing.
At this moment, however, she started to think from Xie Yan’s point of view.
He was working for Zhou Huailing, so he was doing what he was supposed to do.
Apart from any other potential factors, Xie Yan did not make any mistakes by doing what he was supposed to do. He was Zhou Huailing’s strategist, so he should be working devotedly for him, all for Zhou Huailing’s sake. That was correct.
Gu Chaoyan felt a sense of appreciation for Xie Yan at this point.
He was devoted to the promise he made, but he chose to leave, when he found that things had changed. He was not coveting the treasure, even though the Heir had earned the title.
Xie Yan was a very good strategist.
Gu Chaoyan asked calmly, with her eyes upon him, “Do you regret what you have done?”
