Chapter 1: Encounter at the Bar

  Ye Qianmo returned to May's side, worried that she would take advantage of Ou Muxuan, and also worried that Ou Muxuan would notice this woman related to her past, so she was extra cautious.

  "May, what were you just going to tell me?"

  When she heard Ye Xuan's voice, the woman finally shifted her gaze from Ou Mu Xuan and couldn't help but feel some resentment. Why did Ye Xuan always have so many rich and handsome men around her, while she was surrounded by a bunch of poor losers?

  "Oh, I was just about to say, that day when you went to the bar, I saw you!"

  Ye Xuan's eyes widened and she held onto a glimmer of hope in her heart, "What wine?"

  "It's that bar you went to the other day, yeah, the one where the newspaper reported you were on a date with Kowloon!" The woman said bluntly.

  "Then what?" Ye Xuan Mo smiled awkwardly.

  "Then I met a woman who claimed to be your friend and she asked me about your past!" The woman said with sincerity, "Oh right, I think her name was Mo Hanxin!"

  Ye Xuan Mo took a step back, and Mu Han Xin... knew about her past, so would Ou Mu Xuan know too?

  Her unbearable past... He will be very disgusted, right?

  "Ada?" The woman called out to Ye Xuan's thoughts, "Sorry about that, I was drunk that day and said too much, accidentally..."

  Ye Xuan's smile was bitter and she knew it would end like this. This woman, with only her own interests in mind, how could she possibly keep a secret for her?

  "It's nothing, it's not a big deal!" Ye Xuan's smile was bitter. "Thanks for telling me all this." This way, she had done her best to be kind and righteous, hadn't she?

  If Ou Mu Xuan abandons her, then they can just break up; anyway, they don't have any relationship now, so it doesn't matter if they break up.

  "But Ada," the woman's eyes still fixed on Oumu Xun, "that man..."

  "He's my superior, and also Mo Hanxin's fiancé!" Ye Xuan said sarcastically, "You've seen it for yourself, now that we're interacting, so Mo Hanxin isn't even my friend, but rather my love rival."

  The woman pretended to be shocked, "Sorry, sorry me, I didn't know it would harm you, sorry!"

  "It's nothing serious!"

  Yes, it's no big deal, she used to be a dancer, but she didn't do anything immoral. She was forced to accompany customers for drinks under duress, but she didn't sacrifice her body to make money, so there's nothing to be afraid of!

  Gu Jiaxi felt that her luck had already reached the point where both humans and gods were fed up with it. She was dressed so carefully, yet she still ran into reporters when she went out. It seemed that from now on, she should give more small change to those begging old ladies and gentlemen to accumulate good karma!

  "Miss Gu, I heard that after joining Ouhuang, you were frequently squeezed out, is it true?"

  "I heard they're worried you'll threaten their position, so they're targeting you everywhere?"

  "Miss Gu, since joining Ouhuang, you haven't been assigned any work. May I ask why?"

  "Have you been put on the backburner by the company or does the company simply not think highly of you?"

  One sharp question after another, Gu Jia wanted to scold someone, but unfortunately, as a public figure, she had to maintain her image at all times. Her assistant and agent weren't with her today, so she snuck out secretly to get some fresh air without telling them. Therefore, she didn't dare speak recklessly, or else she wouldn't be able to go back and explain herself!

  However, no matter how far she walked, this group of reporters kept following her, making it difficult for her to even return home.

  "Get out of the way!"

  A cold voice, not loud but extremely piercing, with a hint of ruthlessness and an air of superiority, cut in without hesitation!

  The majestic voice made the reporters stunned for a moment, then they turned their heads one after another. When they saw Oumu Xuan's icy face, they all gave way to a path. If you want to continue mixing in City A, you can't offend Situ Luotian on the black road, and you can't offend Oumu Xuan on the white road. This is their common understanding.

  Ou Mu Xuan walked up to Gu Jia Ze with the majesty of a king, his every step exuding an icy demeanor that was also elegant to the extreme. The only thing that didn't match his high and mighty temperament was the two cups of fruit juice in his hand.

  It was originally meant for Ye Xuanmo, but he just took it and brought it over.

  Both hands were occupied, so Ou Mu Xuan walked up to Gu Jia Qi with big strides, stretched out his hand and handed one of the cups of juice to her. The elegant movement was like that of a prince inviting a princess to dance at a ball.

  Gu Jia looked at him dazedly, then reached out to take it, feeling a bit nervous and more heart-pounding was that Ou Mu Xuan stretched out his hand to hold her wrist, taking her away.

  Like a brave knight, he protects his princess without hesitation.

  Maybe it's because he just squeezed the juice, his hands are a bit cool, and then the thick palm, even the calluses on his palms, give people a sense of security.

  Heart beats fast, especially when Gu Jiaxiang raises his head and sees his resolute back and broad shoulders, deep in his heart, even a little sour.

  Is this love?

  It turns out that being moved by someone is really just a matter of an instant, it turns out that there will be someone who will suddenly rush into your heart without reason or excuse, only...

  Ou Mu Xuan pulled her along, walking right up to Ye Xuan Mo's face. However, Ye Xuan Mo seemed still in a daze, and under the bright sunlight, she looked so lonely and helpless, even a bit terrified. But all of this, she endured alone, gritting her teeth tightly, suppressing all her emotions deep within her heart.

  "Women, what are you thinking?!" Ou Mu Xuan bluntly roared back at her thoughts.

  Ye Xuan's eyes snapped back into focus, and she glanced at Ou Mu-xuan before shifting her gaze to Gu Jia-chen. "Jia-chen, what are you doing here?"

  Gu Jiaxi stuck out her tongue, "I came out for some fresh air, sis, what are you doing here?"

  "I'm here for inspiration!" He said, pointing to Ou Mu Xuan beside him, "This guy is more concerned about the progress of work, and must follow up."

  Gu Jiaxi didn't dare to look up at Ou Muxuan, fearing that her eyes would betray herself. Lately, the scandal between Ou Muxuan and Xingkong had been circulating wildly, although she knew it was because Ye Yize was meddling in the middle. However, if Ou Muxuan and Ye Xuaner were to pretend to be in love but actually fall for each other, she didn't want to ruin things for them either.

  "Jia Xian?" Ye Xuan Mo looked at slightly dazed Gu Jia Xian, "Your complexion doesn't seem too good, do you have something on your mind?"

  "No way," Gu Jiaxi took a big sip of juice, very sour. "Sister, your complexion is not good, you're the one with worries, right?" Then she looked up at Ou Muxuan, "Right, President Ou?"

  Ou Mu Xuan looked at Ye Qian Yu's face seriously, "What are you afraid of?"

  "Me..." Ye Xuanmu pulled Gu Jiaxi, "Mr. Ou, I don't need you to accompany me now, I have Jiaxi with me, you go back to the company and continue working!"

  " You... " Ou Mu Xuan furrowed his brow, anyway, with one more person, his interest in strolling around was gone, "burning the bridge after crossing the river!"

  Gu Jiaxi looked at them, and it seemed that there was no particularly intimate behavior between them either?
