Qin Yuan returned back to the company and ordered Jin Le to purchase the branch under Qin Xue's control once again.

Everything was going according to his plan, and the first step was right.

With a cold face, he stood before the window that penetrated through the warm sunlight and looked up to the blue sky. The thick and dense clouds moved with the wind, and a slight refreshing breeze, which was accompanied by a sweet smell, blew into his nose, and a warm breeze swept into his clothes.

At the same time, Li Xiaoren who was enjoying his fragrant coffee under the blue sky continued to play with his phone. His finger moved a few times before it finally stopped at someone's phone.

With a layer of dim eyes lowered, Li Xiaoren's throat felt dry. He picked up the coffee and took a sip, even though he had added enough milk, the bitter taste still remained.

This bitterness lingered in Li Xiaoren's heart, and was unable to be dispelled.

His sunken eyes glowed with a silver light, and in the end, Li Xiaoren could no longer hold back the longing in his heart, he dialed the number, and invited the person to come out and meet him.

The coffee that was placed in front of him had already turned cold, causing Li Xiaoren, whose throat was dried up, to no longer be touched by this bit of bitterness. He continuously raised his head, his gaze filled with desire looking at the street, looking for the figure who was daydreaming.

When the sharp sounds of the high heels entered her ears, the woman wearing the hat and mask walked over step by step with her head lowered, and directly sat in front of Li Xiaoren.

The moment Li Xiaoren saw her, his eyes were filled with love and pity. His expression of elation was even more intense than any other time he had ever felt it.

She lowered her eyes and did not meet Li Xiaoren's gaze, instead she called for the waiter and ordered a cup of lemon tea.

"Did you call me here for something?" The woman's gaze was always in contact with Li Xiaoren's plain and cold words, she completely ignored the love he threw at her.

Li Xiaoren wiped the bitterness from the corner of his mouth, and the light in his eyes dimmed even more: "Could it be that we can't meet and talk to each other like normal friends?"

The woman remained cold.

Li Xiaoren looked at her dumbly and said: "Did you know? "I really miss you so much that I almost went crazy just thinking about you. Can't you come out and stay with me?"

Even though the woman in front of him was tightly wrapped up, Li Xiaoren's eyes were still burning hot like fire, and did not have the slightest bit of cooling.

As the woman drank the lemon tea, her entire body exuded a different kind of aura. The sunlight that reflected into her eyes was even more alluring.

In the face of Li Xiaoren's straightforward words, besides calmness, the woman did not have any other ripples.

"If there's nothing special, I'll be leaving first." The woman put down her empty glass and got up to leave.

She only gave Li Xiaoren time to drink a cup of lemon tea and express her feelings.

No matter how much Li Xiaoren loved her deeply, he was only a pawn to her.

Since he was a chess piece, he didn't need to put any unnecessary feelings into his heart to prevent himself from being the one to be in trouble in the future.

Li Xiaoren didn't even want to let this girl go at all. He still wanted to spend a bit more time with her.

Even though the woman in front of him had no feelings whatsoever for his, Li Xiaoren still treated her with such strong affection that he could not disappear even for a moment, only increase or decrease.

Seeing that the lady was about to leave him, Li Xiaoren grabbed her hand in a hurry. When he touched his palm, he felt a hint of warmth, causing his heart to involuntarily beat faster.

Her cold stare made Li Xiaoren let go of his hand.

The small touch did not last more than a minute.

The lady lowered her eyes and looked at the hand Li Xiaoren had touched before, slightly trembling, his brows tightly knitted, a trace of displeasure in her eyes, but he did not recklessly erupt outwards.

"Sit down first." Li Xiaoren gestured for his to sit down.

The lady looked at Li Xiaoren for a few seconds before she sat down and looked at him coldly, as if she was waiting for him to speak.

If what he had said was not the truth, she would have left without hesitation and would not have wasted another second of her time.

"I believe you already know that Qin Xue has been arrested for bribing the political officials. Right now, I am already the boss behind Kaiyu's scenes and am able to take control of her power. You no longer need to stay by his side, it's time for you to come back to my side. Li Xiaoren looked at the lady in front of him anxiously.

Li Xiaoren had always been waiting for the girl in front of him to return to his side.

"No." The woman refused without thinking.

Li Xiaoren's eyes enlarged by a fold. He never thought that she would actually reject him without hesitation. Could it be that she was already unwilling to return?

"Why?" Li Xiaoren tightly clenched his teeth, and said with a deeply wrinkled brow, feeling extremely injured, "Did you already have feelings for him? "You can't bear to come back?"

"Don't forget, this is all fake. Everything that happened between you and him is fake, have you forgotten what Qin Family did to you?"

"You should know clearly that in this world, only I will unconditionally treat you well. By loving you, I will definitely not let you suffer the slightest bit. I will also not let you lead a bad life."

Li Xiaoren gazed at the woman in front of him with deep feelings and feelings, and the love in his eyes became stronger and stronger, afraid that she would not be able to see it.

Facing his strong love, the woman treated him calmly. There was no emotion in her eyes.

"It's not time yet."

Li Xiaoren did not believe that the time was not right. Qin Xue had already fallen, and she had enough power to protect her and help her.

Li Xiaoren wholeheartedly wanted the woman in front of him to return to his side. She had been staying with Qin Xue for such a long time, being tortured by so many thoughts.

Faced with his mood, the woman naturally changed the subject to talk about other things.

The woman didn't think that Qin Xue would obediently accept this kind of punishment. Even if Li Xiaoren was currently the boss behind Kaiyu's back, there was no guarantee that anything bad would happen within the next two days.

She needed to find a result that would never change, not one that would waver. She wanted to helplessly wait for Qin Family to descend into hell.

After talking for a while, the woman left without hesitation. This time, Li Xiaoren did not stop her.

The smile on his face was extremely bitter as a bitter taste seeped into his heart. It was like a sharp blade that kept scraping away at his heart, leaving behind traces of bright red.

His big hands tightly held onto the chair's handle, his entire body was trembling, accompanied by the warm sun's light breeze that continuously blew past, causing Li Xiaoren to feel extremely cold.

People were passing by on the huge street, many of them holding each other's hands while walking past Li Xiaoren, while he sat alone outside the coffee shop, enjoying the cup of black coffee that had long turned cold.

The smile on Li Xiaoren's face was stiff and bitter.

At the same time, Su Ningqing gave the modified clothes to Gu Qing. When the two met, Gu Qing did not openly mock her.

Instead, it was her who stood to the side and looked carefully at Su Ningqing, her eyebrows knitted together.

Because of Qin Xue's fall, Gu Qing did not dare to act too arrogantly and openly as a threat to Su Ningqing, but she was still an eyesore to him.

"What do you think now? What's wrong with it? " Su Ningqing who had a normal expression suddenly raised her head to look at Gu Qing and spoke, scaring the latter.

Right now, Qin Xue was no longer the boss behind Jieyu. With no one backing him up, Su Ningqing would take this opportunity to take revenge on him.

"It's still okay, but isn't the size of the clothes a little too small?" Gu Qing looked in the mirror and took a look. After turning it a few times, she felt that her abdomen was a little tight.

"Is that so?" Su Ningqing frowned, she focused on her clothes.

Therefore, Gu Qing was filled with suspicions towards Su Ningqing, thinking that this woman would definitely not let him go easily, but why had she still not launched an attack on him?

His attitude was no different from before, he felt that she did not know about Qin Xue's fall.

However, Gu Qing still did not dare to use words to threaten Su Ningqing, as she was afraid that this woman would have a scheming mind and pretend that she did not know anything.

If he suffered a loss, he would have to forcibly swallow it down.

"You should be happy to hear that Qin Xue has been arrested for bribing. With one less person in the Qin Family who is against you, the marriage between you and Qin Yuan will not be long in the future. " Gu Qing said in a strange tone.

Originally, he wanted to force Su Ningqing's true face out, but her words didn't have much effect. Su Ningqing was only slightly stunned for a moment, then raised his head and looked at her for some baffling reason before continuing to lower his head.

"I think you must have used this little white rabbit's face to make Qin Yuan feel dizzy, to the point that you couldn't even look at women anymore. If Qin Xue was arrested, you must be feeling really good, thinking that not having anyone to support you would be very miserable."

"Don't be too arrogant, things might not go so smoothly."

Gu Qing had been speaking secretly the entire time, afraid that Su Ningqing would not be able to hear her, she raised her voice, letting her know that one of the people who opposed her marriage with Qin Yuan had already been arrested.

It was a pity that Su Ningqing's attention was completely focused on her clothes and not a single bit of Gu Qing's words landed in her ears.
