Chapter 3: When There's No Choice

  Mei's hand trembled slightly because of her words, and her eyes widened as she stared at Xue Luo in the mirror.

  She was also looking at her, and for a moment, Mei's aunt saw a small thread of unease in her eyes, but the next moment, she lowered her head and said softly, yet without hesitation: "Cover your headscarf..."

  Once she put on the veil, her life was changed forever. She was no longer the carefree Ouyang Xueluo in a California villa, nor was she the little girl he used to call her.

  But where is he?

  Her beautiful face under the veil for a moment, raised a desperate smile, Mei's heart also because of this smile suddenly painful, what is all this, now there are still such marriages, her mistress... alas...

  Emperor Group's top floor office

  A robust and tall figure was huddled in a large armchair, with a long cigar clenched between his lips. A long string of ash had accumulated on the tip of the cigar, but it hadn't fallen off yet. His hand, placed on the table, unconsciously opened and closed the lighter, revealing that he had been maintaining this posture for quite some time.

  Outside the window, it's rare for today to be sunny and bright. It should be a refreshing good weather as usual, but for him, today is really a bad day!

  Suddenly, a knock at the door sounded outside. His expression remained unchanged, as if he hadn't heard it. The person outside didn't care either, and directly opened the door to come in. He was wearing a suit that was pressed to perfection, his hair was also combed neatly for once, when he saw him, there wasn't much of an expression on his face, he just called out: "Boss, time's almost up..."

  He finally moved, the ash fell off instantly, revealing a fiery spark, looked up at the person by the door, took out the cigar from his lips, and extinguished it in the ashtray.

  "Green Crane, I have such times too..." He said lightly, his tone full of mockery and helplessness. Then he stood up, took the suit jacket from the back of the chair and walked out.

  The man called Qinghe remained silent, standing to one side until he passed by and reached the door before speaking out: "Everyone has their own helplessness!"

  The person walking away paused for a moment, seemingly weighing his words. In the end, he asked, "What about her?" His tone remained indifferent, devoid of any emotion.

  The person by the door also replied indifferently: "I don't know..."

  He raised an eyebrow and said nothing more, turning to leave.

  As he passed by the assistant's room, he slowed down involuntarily and finally stopped in front of that tightly closed door for a long time. He raised his hand but let it fall back down, turned around and left without looking back.
