Chapter 1: Encounter in a Bar

  Ou Mu Xuan pushed away the computer, picked up the phone on his desk and dialed a number. "Is it true that Gu Jia Chen's scandal is spreading?!" His cold voice carried a hint of anger.

  "...I don't know," the person in charge of Ouhuang Company said on the phone, their hearts racing with fear. Their boss had just instructed them to sign this artist, and now such a scandal had emerged overnight. "But please rest assured, President, we will definitely resolve this as soon as possible!"

  "I want to see results tomorrow!"

  "Exactly!"

  Gu Jiaxiang didn't care about him at all, and he had nothing to do with him. What made him angry was that this damn woman actually put everything on his head. Did he not deserve any trust?

  But what's even more infuriating is that he never used to care about being misunderstood, so why is he now getting worked up over Ye Xuanmo? Ridiculous!

  She picked up her phone and saw another unfamiliar number from an unfamiliar number on the screen. Ou Mu Xuan saved both numbers separately, then dialed Ye Xuan's phone with ease.

  "Hey, who are you?!" At this moment, Ye Xuan's heart was uncomfortable.

  "Ou Mu Xuan..."

  "Oumu Xuan, you despicable, shameless, and worthless scum, you damn..."

  "Shut up!" Ou Mu Xuan roared, cutting off her words. "If I don't see you at the Sunny Plaza in ten minutes, I'll make sure that Gu Jia disappears from this world forever!"

  Ou Mu Xuan hung up the phone, picked up his coat and walked out. Despicable, shameless, and worthless scum? Woman, you're dead!

  It seems that this matter really wasn't done by Father, huh, he just knew his father wasn't that kind of person. The little milk bottle propped up her chin, recalling the chat records with Ou Mu Xuan, and checking if she had any bad behavior.

  Dad, I've done all I can to help you, now it's up to you.

  Is that the Tiananmen Square? Alright, it's just right that Ye Xuanmo also wants to settle accounts with him. Despicable scum, his methods are indeed some of the most inferior and unscrupulous ones. What a waste of such an extraordinary face!

  Ye Xuan rushed to Qingkong Square with a burst of energy, but... where were the people?

  "What the heck, has she been played? They agreed to meet in 10 minutes, but it's already been 15 minutes! In her anger, Ye Xuan suddenly thought of something else - with Qingkong Square being so big, they didn't seem to have agreed on a specific meeting spot, did they?"

  IQ... Her IQ as high as Mount Everest has dropped into the Somali ditch again?

  Every time I meet Ou Mu Xuan, something unpleasant always happens. Ye Xiang Yu stood alone at the side of the road waiting for the green light, what else could go wrong?

  In the coffee shop next door, a slender figure sat elegantly by the window, her amber eyes gazing at the slightly decadent beauty not far away with great interest, a thin smile of mockery rising from the corner of her lips.

  Let her wait then, as for Ou Mu Xuan...

  Well, let's have a cup of coffee first and appreciate her embarrassment for a while.

  The green light came on, and Ye Xuan was about to step out to cross the intersection when her phone suddenly rang. It was an unfamiliar number - could it be Ou Mu Xuan calling?

  "Scum, you..."

  "Mo Mo?" A very gentle male voice, with a hint of hesitation, a hint of tension, and a hint of delight, came through the phone.

  This sound is...

  Ye Qianmo was stunned on the spot, amidst the hustle and bustle of the intersection, her brain suddenly went blank, forgetting how to think, forgetting how to react. Past events wanted to surge out from the repressed corners of her mind, but at this moment, she lost all power of recollection.

  That voice belonged to Si Tu Luo Tian, the one who had tormented her in countless nightmares every night, the one she had been trying desperately to forget and ignore for six years.

  And now, this person's voice suddenly appears again!

  That day, she cried and begged him not to marry another person, but he only said one sentence: "I'm sorry..."

  That day, she lowered her pride and self-esteem for the first time, taking off her clothes one by one, while he picked them up and put them back on her...

  That day, she vowed to drive him out of her world!

  She had just arrived in France, and her supposedly fluent French was unable to communicate with the locals. She had to ask others to repeat themselves many times before she could barely understand what they were saying. At that time, alone on a foreign street, all that appeared in her mind was Si Tu Luo Tian's phone number.

  She wanted to call him, wanting to tell him how much she missed him at this moment, but she endured it. Her self-esteem had already been lost in front of him once, that was enough!

  Six years ago, she was discriminated against because of her poor family background and not being as beautiful as that woman. But now, six years later, she is a world-renowned top fashion designer, so what else can she be afraid of?

  She should stand proudly in front of him and make him regret giving her up, shouldn't she?

  "Miao Miao?" Not hearing a response from the other end, Si Tu Luo Tian hesitantly called out her name softly, "Miao Miao, it's me..."

  "I know who you are, you are..." His name got stuck in her throat!

  She can't say it out loud, his name, whether six years ago or six years later, she still can't bring herself to utter it easily, can't call it out as if it were nothing, like a stranger would.

  Heart, painful as if countless sharp swords pierced through, Ye Xuan's lips were tightly bitten, forcing the excess back into her body, refusing to let it fall from her eyes!

  Don't cry, Ye Xuanmo. A person who has already betrayed you isn't worth a single tear from you!

  The red light was on, but Ye Xuanmo still stood in place, with a stubborn smile on her pale face, suppressing the sadness in her heart, and stubbornly maintaining her pride and self-respect.

  "You... are you looking for me for something?" Ye Xuanmo tried to keep her voice calm.

  "Momo, you're back, aren't you? I want to see you!" Situ Luotian said hastily, as if expressing his love for a long-lost lover.

  Want to see her? Ye Xuanmo sneered, now you want to see her, what were you doing before, six years ago, didn't you know which school she was attending? But did you ever go look for her?

  It's laughable that you're only mentioning missing me now!

  The café, under the bright sunlight, yet Ou Mu Xuan's slender body trembled with fear. He tightly grasped his coffee cup, especially when he saw cars speeding by her side, and she was completely unaware, at any moment a car could crash into her...

  My heart is like being grasped by an invisible hand, and then a surge of nameless anger!

  This woman is standing in the middle of the road making a phone call, doesn't she want her life?!

  He has been patient for a long time, but that despicable dead girl is still standing motionless in the middle of the road. Has she turned to stone? Has her soul been blown away by the wind?!

  Then, Ou Mu Xuan, unable to bear it any longer, suddenly stood up and strode out of the coffee shop.
