On the flight back to the country, Ye Xunhuan was surprisingly well-behaved and hardly spoke a word, while Qiu Ruoxi and Qin Muge chatted occasionally!
Sitting beside them, Ye Xunhuan wanted to speak up, but he didn't dare to, afraid that if he said something wrong, Qiu Ruoxi's face would immediately turn cold.
The thing that made Ye Xunhuan most frustrated was that the flight from London to Jiangzhong City took almost twenty hours!
This was practically a day and a night, and Ye Xunhuan's repressed feelings were beyond words.
Although Ye Xunhuan was unusually well-behaved, he couldn't act mute the entire journey. Occasionally, he would say a few words, but still appeared very honest, not his usual smooth-talking self!
Time flew by, and finally, the plane landed on time at Jiangzhong City International Airport!
After getting off the plane, Ye Xunhuan let out a long sigh of relief, while Qin Muge, who seemed to share the pressure of traveling with Qiu Ruoxi, immediately said goodbye to both Qiu Ruoxi and Ye Xunhuan, quickly grabbing a taxi and leaving the airport swiftly!
After Qin Muge left, Qiu Ruoxi looked at Ye Xunhuan and said coolly, "Was the journey repressive for you?"
Ye Xunhuan smiled awkwardly, "No!"
"This is just the beginning, it'll suffocate you!" Qiu Ruoxi snorted. "But don't worry, I'll keep to our agreement. In less than half a year, I won't touch any of the women around you!"
Hearing Qiu Ruoxi mention the half-year timeframe again, Ye Xunhuan's face immediately fell: "Honey, let's just hurry home, we haven't seen Ayi for several days, I wonder how she has been alone at home!"
Ye Xunhuan didn't want to discuss such matters with Qiu Ruoxi, after all, he had no ground to stand on!
Qiu Ruoxi, of course, knew the little schemes in Ye Xunhuan's heart and hummed lightly, "You go back by yourself, I've already called Qianhuan Lanqin, she's coming to pick me up, I'm going to the office!"
Hearing that Qiu Ruoxi was going to the office again, Ye Xunhuan's mouth twitched slightly: "Honey, aren't you tired?"
"If you want to rise above others, you must endure hardship!" Qiu Ruoxi said earnestly, "Alright, you go back!"
With that, Qiu Ruoxi saw Qianhuan Lanqin, dressed in a professional attire, walking over.
Since Qianhuan Lanqin followed Ye Xunhuan and joined the Huangtu Group, she increasingly resembled a career-oriented urban beauty, the cold aura and killing intent on her faded a lot.
Once Qianhuan Lanqin walked over to Ye Xunhuan and Qiu Ruoxi, she said respectfully, "Master, President Qiu…"
"Lan Qin, let's go!" Qiu Ruoxi said straightforwardly.
As soon as she finished speaking, Qiu Ruoxi lifted her foot and walked forward.
Seeing this, Qianhuan Lanqin immediately said to Ye Xunhuan, "Master…"
"Take her to the company, and be safe on the road!"
With that from Ye Xunhuan, Qianhuan Lanqin didn't say much and just turned to leave.
After Qianhuan Lanqin and Qiu Ruoxi left, Ye Xunhuan casually called a taxi and headed towards the Fragrance Pavilion Villa.
This time, Ye Xunhuan and Qiu Ruoxi didn't inform Ayi about their return, which resulted in Ayi being quite surprised when Ye Xunhuan returned to the villa: "Young master, when did you and Miss come back, why didn't you give a heads up…"
"I didn't want you to worry, so we didn't say." Ye Xunhuan whispered.
"And where's Miss, did she go to the office again?"
"Miss really is something, finally going on a trip with you, and she goes back to work as soon as she's back…"
Ye Xunhuan and Qiu Ruoxi didn't tell Ayi that they went to London to attend the Black List Competition, only saying that they were going on a trip!
Ayi was extremely excited when she heard about it back then.
"You know how stubborn Ruoxi can be, Ayi." Ye Xunhuan said with a smile.
"Ayi, we brought you a gift, I'll get it for you in a bit!"
Ye Xunhuan and Qiu Ruoxi, although they went to participate in the Black List Competition, they still strolled around Oxford Street and picked a gift for Ayi despite encountering an assassin there.
"Why bring gifts, everything abroad is so expensive, just wasting money…" Tʜe sourcᴇ of thɪs content ɪs n̷o̷v̷e̷l̷f̷i̷r̷e̷.net
"It wasn't that much!"
Saying that, Ye Xunhuan took out a small red box from his bag and handed it to Ayi!
"Ayi, see if you like it?"
As soon as Ye Xunhuan spoke, Ayi slowly opened the box and, upon seeing a bracelet inside, quickly said, "Young master, this is too valuable, I…"
Ayi, although not from a wealthy family, had seen a bit, taking care of Qiu Ruoxi for so many years.
Judging by the bracelet Ye Xunhuan took out now, Ayi estimated it to be worth at least tens of thousands!
"It's just a bracelet, nothing much else for you." Ye Xunhuan leisurely interrupted Ayi's words, "You just accept it!"
Saying this, Ye Xunhuan picked up his bag and made a move to head upstairs, "Ayi, I'm going to take a bath first!"
"Ayi, if you don't accept it, when Ruoxi comes back, you'll have to explain to her, otherwise she might think I'm mistreating you!"
With that from Ye Xunhuan, Ayi had no choice but to accept the bracelet.
Going upstairs, Ye Xunhuan took a shower and changed his clothes before coming back down.
Seeing Ye Xunhuan come down, he greeted Ayi and left the villa.
However, Ye Xunhuan wasn't heading to work; instead, he was going to find Su Guyan.
After all, last time when he returned from the capital, Ye Xunhuan hadn't properly spent time with Su Guyan, just met quickly and had a meal.
Now that he was back from London, Ye Xunhuan thought of going to see Su Guyan.
Su Guyan had married Mu Tiange for his sake, and now she loves him deeply.
Driving to Su Guyan's company, after parking the car securely, Ye Xunhuan immediately headed to the British Emperor Group.
As soon as Ye Xunhuan entered the British Emperor Group, he heard some employees gossiping about Su Guyan.
"That Fang Wenbai is so handsome, standing with President Su, they're a match made in heaven…"
An infatuated woman said to her companion, her eyes gleaming.
"Stop being silly, how could President Su fall for a mere actor?"
"Tch, Wenbai isn't just an actor, okay? He's also a philanthropist and an anti-drug campaign ambassador, and supposedly he's also…"
Upon hearing this gossip, a cloud of confusion slowly rose in Ye Xunhuan's heart.
Su Guyan had a suitor, someone trying to steal his spot?
As for Su Guyan finding a boyfriend, Ye Xunhuan absolutely refused to believe it.
If Su Guyan wanted to find someone, she wouldn't have waited until now. With a series of questions in mind, Ye Xunhuan slowly made his way to Su Guyan's office.
He wanted to see who exactly dared to steal his place!
