The man’s lips moved ever so slightly when faced with her nonchalant smile. In the end, he did not say anything and just nodded ever so slightly.

“Alright.”

However, once Tang Xiaoyu disappeared from his sight, his eyes shone with complexity.

Sadness, resignation, and helplessness – it was hard to decipher.

“Are you the one getting engaged? It’s good… that you found happiness. It’s good…”

The man’s low voice sounded like a cello – low and elegant; it was enough to make one’s mind sink further, yet the words he spoke could make one feel his helplessness and despondence.

“Zhengrong, come out and eat! I’m famished!”

He hid all his emotions at once when he heard her upbeat voice.

“Mhm.”

Lightly humming, he walked out of the door.

His steps were very slow and steady, but with each step, his expression became even more resolute.

It was as if he had made a decision in this short journey.

Angel, maybe this is the best for us three.

Since you found the man you can spend your life with, I won’t keep thinking and worrying about you anymore.

Perhaps, it’s time to start anew.

For you, for me, and for… Xiaoyu, it’s time to give all of us a new chance, so that no one will get hurt.

Perhaps, by the time we meet again, I may have already let things go.

Angel, I wish you happiness…

…

Pei Ge was of course clueless about these two people’s internal struggles on another side of the Earth.

Right now, she only knew that she was extremely busy.

Since the engagement was brought forward, she was much busier now.

When one got married, the fiancée, would participate in the preparations no matter what.

As for her, she did not even have an ounce of spare time.

Having just started on Fu Mingxuan’s project, she was so busy that she was nearly flying. She definitely had no spare time to take part in the engagement preparations.

She did not even have the time to spend with Ji Ziming daily.

Other than getting on and off work with him every day, she devoted all her rest time working.

“This proposal isn’t acceptable. Take it back and redo it!

“Is this the final version of the statistical data? Are you trying to brush me off?! Redo it!

“This the supposed crème de la crème employees? You guys have greatly disappointed me!

“Effort! Put more effort! Can you all please put forth more effort?! If even someone like me who has joined in halfway and isn’t experienced in this can see the errors in this data, do you think those negotiating with us won’t be able to do so as well?”

These days, if they had to point out the person with the most improvement, then they would all mention their planning manager.

She slept not more than five hours a day and spent most of her time and effort working, allowing her to improve by leaps and bounds.

Being extra hardworking, a quick learner, and slightly talented, her improvement was astounding; this was especially since she had the help of external mentors.

If she was a toddler who was just learning to crawl in the past, then she was now an adult who could sprint at the speed of an athlete.

Hence, upon seeing her improvements, not one planning department members dared to belittle her anymore.

All of them could only bow to her prowess. Even if they were slightly unhappy about her, they still must bow down to the fact that she was indeed capable.

“I don’t want to see this again tomorrow. Meeting adjourned!”

After she spoke her piece, she got up from her swivel chair.

The perceptive assistant rushed to open the meeting room door for her.

Tak, tak, tak. Stepping on the floor in her five-inch high heels, she left the meeting room.

Those left behind in the meeting room sighed in relief and leaned against the chair once she was out of sight.

“Hoo! The hell. Have you guys realized that our manager is becoming more and more authoritative?”

“Yes, yes, yes! She’s quite passive and didn’t feel like a part of the management before, but now…”

“Now, she’s like white rabbit that turned into a tiger! I don’t even dare to look at her directly when she slapped the files in front of me. It’s too frightening!”

“Isn’t there gossip of her formally stepping into the Ji family’s house this weekend as she gets engaged with our big boss? Why is she like a vengeful and abandoned Li Mochou now?”

“Yes. Everyone says that women in love, whether they are old virgins, Madam Kill-all, or the worn-down Li Mochou, will always be sunny and have pink bubbles around them, but our manager…”

“She directly progressed into Madam Kill-all. She doesn’t even bear a single semblance to a woman about to get married.”

“Indeed, if I could marry our CEO, don’t even mention scolding people, I think my face would be paralyzed from smiling all day. I really can’t figure her out.”

“Tsk. Unlike you, I can actually slightly understand her mentality. She probably feels that, right now, she can’t match up to our big boss, so she’s doing her best to secure this project; that way, she can lift her head on the day of her engagement.”

“Eh? That sounds plausible!”

“When you put it that way, I can’t help but think that it’s true!”

“Yes. Our manager indeed can’t match up to our CEO in any way…”

…

Pei Ge did not know of the conversation that had transpired in the meeting room, but even if she did, she would of course not care about it.

After all, she was very busy, so where would she find the time to care about those irrelevant people?

She returned to her office and started looking through the complicated data.

She was earnestly reading and jotting down some useful data from the presentation earlier when her phone rang.

“Pei Ge…”
