At that moment, Qiu Ruoxi’s heart leapt into her throat.

Based on her past experiences with arguments with Ye Xunhuan, it was usually the case that Ye Xunhuan would come to apologize to her.

So naturally, Qiu Ruoxi immediately thought of Ye Xunhuan.

But wasn’t Ye Xunhuan with Su Guyan?

Would he leave Su Guyan behind?

Moreover, this time their argument was much more severe than before, and this bastard never showed any sign of backing down from start to finish.

Would he still come to apologize to her?

But then again, Qiu Ruoxi thought that Ye Xunhuan never knocked when he came to her.

The next moment, Qiu Ruoxi shook her head lightly, throwing out the myriad of thoughts flashing through her mind, and said in a deep voice, "Come in!"

Soon after Qiu Ruoxi spoke, the slightly ajar office door was pushed open from the outside.

Then, a tall and upright figure walked in from outside.

The man wore a light blue shirt, straight suit trousers, and a pair of Italian handcrafted leather shoes.

His jet-black hair was meticulously groomed, and a faint smile graced his chiseled features.

When she saw who had come, a flicker of disappointment flashed in Qiu Ruoxi’s eyes.

But swiftly, Qiu Ruoxi returned to normal.

"Ruoxi, why do you look so upset? Did something happen?" The man looked at Qiu Ruoxi with a face full of concern.

Upon hearing the man’s voice, overflowing with care, Qiu Ruoxi’s heart filled with aversion instead of any goodwill.

But Qiu Ruoxi buried this aversion deep within her, and with a frosty expression, she said to the man, "Nothing’s wrong. Did you come looking for me for something specific, senior?"

"Ruoxi, I know you’re strong-willed, but don’t overwork yourself if you’re feeling unwell. Your health is the foundation of everything," Yan Qingdi dodged the question. "If something is bothering you, talking about it might help!"

"If you’re willing to talk, I’d be delighted to lend an ear!"

"Senior, if there’s nothing else, please leave. I have work to do," Qiu Ruoxi’s voice grew colder.

Like a Siberian chill.

Upon hearing Qiu Ruoxi’s icicle-like words, an awkward expression flickered across Yan Qingdi’s chiseled face.

But he quickly masked it, smiling and saying to Qiu Ruoxi, "Oh, nothing much, just the matter of the last land deal..."

"Senior, I’ve already given you the land. There shouldn’t be any more issues, right?" Qiu Ruoxi interrupted Yan Qingdi directly.

"Ruoxi, don’t misunderstand, I’m talking about another partnership, you know!" Yan Qingdi continued to smile warmly at Qiu Ruoxi.

Qiu Ruoxi’s eyebrows furrowed slightly. "Senior, don’t you trust me?"

"Of course not, I’ve just come to tell you that I’m fully prepared, now we just await your move!"

"Since you’re ready, let’s begin then," Qiu Ruoxi said calmly.

"Alright!" Yan Qingdi nodded. "I’ll get started immediately, but Ruoxi, are you free tonight?"

"I’d like to treat you to dinner and discuss this partnership more?"

"Whatever you want to discuss, we can talk about it here!"

Upon hearing Qiu Ruoxi reject his invitation, a flash of mild anger appeared in Yan Qingdi’s eyes, but he had no other choice but to smile and say, "Alright, let’s talk here then!"

Just as Yan Qingdi was about to say something, the office door was suddenly pushed open from the outside without any warning.

As the door opened, a deep, magnetic voice rang out, "Honey..."

The next moment, Ye Xunhuan, who had just entered, changed his expression slightly when he saw Yan Qingdi in Qiu Ruoxi’s office.

After hearing Su Guyan’s words, Ye Xunhuan hurried back to Huangtu Group, intending to console Qiu Ruoxi.

But who would have thought that upon arriving at Qiu Ruoxi’s office, he would see Yan Qingdi? Ye Xunhuan’s mood was evident.

It was known that Yan Qingdi had been making advances toward Qiu Ruoxi, and considering he just had a big fight with Qiu Ruoxi, nearly leading to divorce.

Yet, at such a critical moment, Yan Qingdi had shown up in Qiu Ruoxi’s office.

Even if it weren’t Ye Xunhuan, any other man would be suspicious.

Qiu Ruoxi tensed up for a moment when she saw Ye Xunhuan suddenly entering, but then she relaxed.

After all, she had done nothing wrong and Yan Qingdi was only there for work-related matters, so what was there to be nervous about?

Besides, this bastard found so many women outside and she didn’t do anything to him, did she?

Moreover, this guy wanted to divorce her while bringing Su Guyan along.

Thinking of this, the frost on Qiu Ruoxi’s face turned more hostile, "Do you not know how to knock before entering?"

Upon hearing Qiu Ruoxi’s words, Ye Xunhuan chuckled, "Well, I’m just used to it!"

Saying this, Ye Xunhuan focused his gaze on Yan Qingdi. "I didn’t expect Young Master Yan to be here too, you’re quite early!"

Yan Qingdi glanced at Ye Xunhuan and smiled, "I just got here."

"I wonder what Young Master Yan is here to see my wife about?"

"If I said it was work-related, would Young Master Ye believe me?"

Yan Qingdi discerned that Ye Xunhuan and Qiu Ruoxi seemed off today, but what had happened, he didn’t know.

"Oh, work-related..."

Ye Xunhuan deliberately elongated his voice, then turned to look at Qiu Ruoxi, the inquiry in his eyes was obvious.

But Qiu Ruoxi acted as if she didn’t catch the meaning in Ye Xunhuan’s gaze, coldly responding, "Ye Xunhuan, if you have nothing else to say, please leave. I have things to discuss with my senior!"

"It’s fine, you two can continue your discussion. I’ll just sit over here, don’t mind me!"

Saying this, Ye Xunhuan unceremoniously slumped onto the sofa.

Ye Xunhuan wasn’t stupid; he knew it was impossible to leave at this moment.

After all, he had just had a fight with Qiu Ruoxi, and Yan Qingdi was clearly after her.

What if Qiu Ruoxi, in a moment of heated emotion, did something out of line? Ye Xunhuan felt he had to stay.

"You..."

Just as Qiu Ruoxi was about to speak, Yan Qingdi smiled and said, "Ruoxi, it seems you and Young Master Ye have some matters to settle first."

"I’ll come another day. You two talk it out!"

At this point, Yan Qingdi knew when to advance and retreat. After all, he wanted to maintain the appearance of a gentleman in Qiu Ruoxi’s eyes, and being polite.

Otherwise, he would lose face again, which he had already done once and didn’t want to do again due to lack of tact.

Moreover, he was quite interested in what had happened between Ye Xunhuan and Qiu Ruoxi, and wanted to investigate further.

To see if there was anything he could use to his advantage.
