Once Upon A One Night Stand novel Chapter 289

What Shu Tian had experienced and suffered in a foreign country was completely unimaginable to Li Han. He was completely depressed. At first, he could still rely on alcohol to numb himself. But before long, the method became useless and he had no way to cope with that.

Ling Junze and the others saw that Li Han was being passive and depressed, but there was nothing they could do about it. Although Li Han used to speak little and he was positive deep in his heart, but ever since Shu Tian disappeared, this man had completely changed. He started to be pessimistic.

He hated this world, even with the law that he used to take pride in.

Others' words were useless for him. He could only survive this situation by himself.

Half a year had passed and Li Han rarely went to the company during that time. But one morning, he arrived at the office. Ji Chuanyi was looking at today's schedule. He was surprised when he came in, then stood up happily to greet him. "You finally came."

He thought Li Han had thought better of it and was willing to come back to work as before.

Unexpectedly, what he said next was shockingly surprising, "I'm leaving the legal profession. Let's make a statement this noon."

"What?!" Ji Chuanyi was also an experienced lawyer, but he was still shocked to hear him that, "Han, what... what did you say?"

"I will quit. I don't want to get involved with the law in the future." He had to get out of it, or else he would resent himself for the rest of his life.

The law he believed in the most helped so many people but slandered the woman he loved the most. This was the most unacceptable thing to him.

Seeing his being so determined, Ji Chuanyi frowned. "Han, calm down and be rational. You and I have built up this company and run it successfully until today. What should you do when you leave the company now? What should I do?"

"You can do it on your own." Li Han said without thinking. His dark eyes were filled with determination. "The company would be fine without me. Liu Cheng is also good at his work. You could promote him to help you when I leave."

Since he said so, it seemed he had already made up his mind.

For a moment, Ji Chuanyi suddenly didn't know what to say. He had never expected Li Han to make such a decision. He had never thought that one day this man would leave the profession he once loved the most.

When he finished his studies, he was so proud and confident that he set foot in this industry. No matter how difficult things were in the past, he did not flinch at all, but now...

Ji Chuanyi took a deep breath. "Han, I know you're sad. There are some things I shouldn't say as an outsider, but as a brother, I want to tell you the truth. I know that Shu Tian's departure is a heavy blow to you, but one cannot put back the clock. I hope you could move forward. I never thought that one day you would be like this. Have you ever thought about what you would do after you quit? Even if you don't want to be responsible for yourself, if Shu Tian were still alive, she wouldn't want to see you like this."

At first, Li Han did not listen to Ji Chuanyi. Countless people around him had tried to motivate him. After a long time, he was used to that, but the last sentence undoubtedly touched him.

The man was silent for a moment, then curled his lips ironically and he muttered with an affection, "If only she was really alive."

As soon as he finished, the office fell into an awful silence. Ever since Shu Tian's accident, this almost became a taboo among them. It was really unbearable for anyone to continue to live when his or her loved one passed away.
