Chapter 1: Encounter at the Bar

  Such harsh words made Ye Xuan's heart momentarily terrified, but soon she adjusted herself. Between them, there was no love to begin with, and many people disliked her; now, what did it matter if he was added to the list?

  Wiping the bloodstains from her hands, Ye Xuanmo turned around coldly and took a step forward, but then stopped. "About these bets, I hope you don't think too much about it. The reason I let Mo Lianhe give you half of his shares is just to repay your care for me during this time."

  "...Anger submerged everything once again, but Ou Mu Xuan clenched his teeth and endured it, blood continuously gushing out from the corner of his mouth, rendering him completely unable to speak."

  Hands grasped tightly on the office desk, with bulging veins on the back of hands!

  "Besides, no matter what tricks Lin Xue and the others play, I will still win!" Ye Xuan's back was facing him, with a strong light radiating from her eyebrows, "So, you can rest assured that I won't let you miss out on your happiness for a lifetime because of me."

  "It doesn't matter!"

  If it wasn't her in the end, where did his happiness come from for a lifetime? What's the difference who you're with and who you marry?

  Hearing the sound of the door closing behind him, Ou Mu Xuan sat weakly in his chair. In terms of business acumen, he would never lose to anyone; in terms of means, he had always been invincible. Relying on his own two hands and his own wisdom, he had repeatedly saved the Ou Corporation from crisis, allowing it to develop at an extremely rapid pace every year.

  In the business world, he is a legend, but in terms of emotions, he has no power to fight back. In front of Ye Xuanmo, he can never escape and can only retreat in defeat...

  It is said that Ye Xuanmo returned to the Ou family, so a large number of reporters surrounded the company building, waiting for Ye Xuanmo's appearance. No matter what method the security guards used, they were helpless against those reporters.

  The endurance of gossip journalists is amazing, their methods are peculiar, and they have rich experience. Ordinary security guards are simply no match for them.

  Everyone thought Ye Qianyu would hide, and there would be a large number of reporters protecting her when she came out. However, unexpectedly, at the end of work hours, she actually walked out alone.

  Even surrounded by rumors, she is still proud and confident at this time, as if nothing can affect her.

  As soon as she walked out of the hall, all the reporters rushed over and surrounded her.

  "Miss Starry Sky, there are reports about you everywhere now, what do you have to say about these things?"

  "May I ask if you are really Ci Xiong's adopted daughter?"

  "Rumor has it that you once used substandard diamonds with excessive radiation and also had ambiguous relationships with multiple fashion show organizers. Can you achieve such success by relying on hidden rules?"

  Upon hearing this, Ye Xiangyu didn't get angry. She casually took a microphone from a reporter's hand and placed it to her lips, the smile on her face still carrying an air of haughty pride.

  "That's right, I am indeed Ye Xun's adopted daughter," Ye Xuan acknowledged frankly. "However, six years ago when I went to France, I had already severed all ties with the Ye family. All my tuition and living expenses were earned through my own efforts, so my relationship with Ye Xun is only nominal."

  All the journalists fell silent, waiting for Ye Xuanfei to continue speaking.

  "As for those fake diamonds, it was already investigated before, they were my competitor's deliberate trap on me. As for my achievement..." Ye Xuanmu dragged her voice out, her dark eyes scanning the surroundings.

  The reporters and photographers all quietly waited for her explanation, without even daring to blink their eyes, fearing they would miss any small detail about Ye Xiang.

  "In three days, it will be the opening day of Xingou. At that time, I will take out evidence one by one to prove myself and prove all the things in the past. I hope you can all come and witness together whether there is real strength and ability to achieve today's results!"

  Everyone was in an uproar, having waited for so long, yet they were left with only a cliffhanger.

  "Miss Starry Sky, will President Ou help you?"

  "Miss Starry Sky, how much does Mr. Ou know about your past? Is he concerned about what happened to you in the past?"

  "What method do you plan to use to prove yourself three days later?"

  "Miss Starry Sky..."

  "Excuse me..."

  The reporters raised their own questions, but Ye Xuan didn't answer again. Mr Ou's security guards came out and blocked the reporters a few meters away, letting Ye Xuan pass through.

  No doubt this is a beautiful counterattack!

  Lin Xue and Situ Ying wanted to use these rumors to tarnish Starry Sky, even if she couldn't be ruined, at least her reputation would be severely damaged, which was very unfavorable for Starry Europe. However, Ye Juan used these public opinions to let them participate in the opening of Starry Europe, so the lively scene on site could basically be guaranteed.

  Although this broke Ye Xuan's previous plan, the current method can seize the limelight even more. However, this is not considered a success yet. If three days later, she cannot produce an answer that satisfies everyone, then at that time, she will truly suffer a crushing defeat.

  What is she doing?

  No, he should be asking himself what he's doing. She's already made it clear she doesn't like him and he's decided to ignore her, so why is he still paying attention to her every move?

  In the office, Ou Mu Xuan leaned back in his chair, as if he was extremely tired. His eyes were slightly closed and his face was a bit pale with deep black eye circles under his eyes.

  On the other hand, Gu Xin carefully picked up the documents on the ground.

  Today, no, it's been the fourth time since Ye Qianmo left his office that the president has swept everything off his desk!

  Alas, why is it always him who comes to be the scapegoat when the president is in a terrible mood?!

  "......President," Gu Xin thought for a moment, still feeling that it was better to say something, "Your complexion doesn't look too good, and your coughing seems to be getting more frequent lately. Why don't I call a doctor for you?"

  Doctor? Can a doctor cure his heart? Can he regain his love?

  "Unable to wait for a response, Gu Xin made another desperate attempt, 'President, you... really don't plan on helping Miss Xing Kong?'"

  "......" Ou Mu Xuan opened his eyes and smiled coldly, "Does she need my help?"

  "If it weren't for your help, Miss Xingkong would probably have a hard time getting through this," Gu Xin explained. "Although I don't know what method Miss Xingkong will use to prove herself, Mo Hanxin and Lin Xue won't just sit back and do nothing, and now there's also Si Tuying, who seems willing to let Miss Xingkong leave A City."

  Should he help her? He couldn't just stand by and watch her face danger, but she had spoken so decisively, and she already had a child, what grounds did he have to help her, to worry about her?

  Since she likes Si Tu Luo Tian, then her safety and everything can be handed over to that man. From now on, her affairs have nothing to do with him!
