No divorce! Mr. Lu knelt down and coaxed him every night.

Zhao Xuelan is six years older than her.

They have been married for two years. Although there is no romantic relationship between them, they get along very well.

For Qiao Huan,

Zhao Xuelan is a husband, but more like a relative.

Qiao Huan liked him to a certain extent, so when he said he was looking forward to meeting her, she couldn't help but smile: "When will you come back? I'll pick you up at the airport?"

Over there, Zhao Xuelan was silent for a few seconds, then looked up and asked Anna, the secretary beside her: "Which day will my special flight be?"

"Mr. Zhao, it's a special flight on Sunday night."

……

Zhao Xuelan lip-read: "Change it to Friday."

Anna was a little surprised, but she immediately made an OK gesture, telling her boss that she could handle everything, and asked the boss to pursue Mrs. Zhao without worry.

Zhao Xuelan smiled slightly.

His smile was so charming that even Anna, a married woman, couldn't help but take a second look. Mr. Zhao said to Mrs. Zhao on the other end, "Mrs. Zhao, see you on Friday."

……

End the call.

Qiao Huan hung up the phone.

She gently touched Jasmine, and her woman's intuition told her that the reason why Zhao Xuelan returned to City B might be because of her, but apart from occasional time together in the past two years, there has been no emotional progress between them.

She must be overthinking it!

Qiao Huan stretched, went to the kitchen to fry herself a portion of foie gras and made herself a salad. After a simple meal, she started painting. Whether abroad or at home, her life was very simple and she spent most of her time painting.

Once, Zhao Xuelan called her in front of the guests——

Hard-working bee.

At that time, his expression was very gentle.

When Qiao Huan thought back, he couldn't help but smile slightly. In fact, most of the memories related to Zhao Xuelan were not bad, and could even be said to be pleasant.

At this moment, her cell phone rang.

Qiao Huan originally thought it was the flight information sent by Zhao Xuelan, but when he picked it up, it was actually a text message from an unfamiliar number with only a few simple words.

【haven't seen you for a long time. 】

It’s...Qiao Jinfan.

Under the lamp, Qiao Huan looked pale.

She didn't reply, but she didn't continue painting. She poured herself a glass of red wine and stood by the window, quietly looking at the night outside.

She felt as heavy as water.

Four years have passed, but Qiao Jinfan can still affect her. Four simple words can shatter her good mood and all her psychological preparation.

Why did he send such a message?

There was clearly someone beside him.

……

In the next few days, Qiao Jinfan didn't send her any messages, let alone call her. It was as if their relationship had finally retired to the dustbin and was finally over.

Friday afternoon.

Qiao Huan went to the airport to pick up Zhao Xuelan. She didn't think that Qiao Group was the capital that Zhao Xuelan wanted to inject, and she didn't expect that Qiao Jinfan would go to the airport to pick her up in person.

A relationship, a Shura field for three people.

The atmosphere is very subtle.

Zhao Xuelan glanced at Qiao Huan's pale face, gently put her arm around her shoulders, then extended her hand to Qiao Jinfan and said with a gentle smile -

"Mr. Qiao has long heard of your name."

"I'm Zhao Xuelan, and this is my wife Qiao Huan."

……

Qiao Jinfan's eyes were deep.

He looked quietly at Qiao Huan, at the legendary wife of Zhao Xuelan——

She is married.

She is actually married.

She stood next to Zhao Xuelan, wearing a light green knitted skirt, looking young and cute. Mr. Zhao's shirt was also light green. They looked like they were wearing couple outfits and looked so well-matched standing together.

It turns out that it was not Duanmu Lei, nor was it some small agent.

Zhao Xuelan, a famous venture capital tycoon.

His net worth exceeds 1200 million US dollars, ranking 32nd on the world's rich list. The most important thing is that he started from scratch and created a legend in the financial circle at the age of 20.

It turns out that she found such a powerful man.

So she didn't come back for four years!

It turned out that when he had been waiting in despair, she had already become Zhao Xuelan's wife.

Qiao Jinfan felt a pain in his chest, but he stretched out his hand and smiled faintly: "Qiao Jinfan, President of Qiao Group. On behalf of the company, I welcome Mr. Zhao to come and negotiate. I hope this negotiation will go smoothly."

"must."

Zhao Xuelan expresses herself freely and easily.

He smiled apologetically, "Mr. Qiao, do you mind if we hold our discussion until tomorrow? My wife and I haven't seen each other for a long time. I want to have dinner with her. There is an old Chinese saying... a short absence is better than a new marriage."

A short absence makes the heart grow fonder…

Qiao Jinfan stared at Qiao Huan, his voice cold -

"Of course I don't mind!"

After saying this, he took a step back, looking very graceful.

It was as if his past with Qiao Huan had never happened and had never really existed.

At this moment, his hatred for her reached its peak...it turned out that she had been married for a long time!

And he was ridiculously trapped in love and hate.

Qiao Jinfan, you are so ridiculous!

Secretary Li standing by had a complicated expression.

She still feels guilty until now. If she hadn't asked for leave, perhaps Mr. Qiao and Ms. Qiao's children would have been abandoned...

……

Waldorf Astoria Hotel in City B.

presidential suite.

Secretary Anna was in the cloakroom, ironing her boss's suit and shirt by herself, and then arranging the valuable accessories one by one. She was very careful in her work.

In the luxurious restaurant, there was a table of sumptuous French cuisine.

Qiao Huan was still savoring it.

Zhao Xuelan was holding a mug, leaning against the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at Qiao Huan quietly.

He is a businessman, and his eyes often have a kind of weariness after his material desires are satisfied, but he didn't look like that when he looked at Qiao Huan.

In fact, Qiao Huan didn't know that he had seen her before, at a Christmas party in England.

He would never forget that night.

She was wearing a goose yellow long dress with goose yellow feathers at the hem. She was so young, she looked like a young duck, clumsy and cute.

He laughed many times that night.

But after Qiao Jinfan appeared, she stayed by the dazzling boy's side. They must be lovers, and their behavior was as sweet as that of a young couple. Later, they went to the terrace, and he couldn't help but follow them, only to see them kissing...

She hugged the person tremblingly, and her whole body was porcelain white and sparkling.

She's not the prettiest.

But in Zhao Xuelan's eyes, she was so dazzling that he even began to believe in love at first sight.

But, she has a boyfriend.

But he was so busy at work that he didn't even know the name of the dazzling girl.

He was not obsessed with this grand secret love.

Later, he also had several girlfriends.

He had never even thought that he would meet her again. Many years later, when he saw her in the gunfire, he was still moved and still had feelings for her. He still thought she was dazzling.

He proposed to her without even thinking about it -

Using the most despicable excuse.
