Seven years later.

Philadelphia in January was freezing and snowy.

When Mu Qian was about to go out, she received a message from Ji Suifeng, saying that she wanted to meet him and also sent him the location of a nearby cafe.

This was not quite like Ji Suifeng's usual style. Mu Qian thought about it briefly, looked at the time, and prepared to go to the appointment.

After leaving the apartment and walking to the agreed-upon cafe for only five minutes, Mu Qian pushed the door open and entered, but she didn't see Ji Suifeng.

She randomly found a seat and sat down. Just as she was about to make a call, a figure appeared in front of her.

Mu Qian looked up and saw Shen Yan.

The Chinese community in Philadelphia is not large. She has met Shen Yan several times and knows that she comes from the famous Shen family in Tongcheng. She is in charge of the family's overseas business in Philadelphia and is quite cold and arrogant.

Shen Yan sat down opposite Mu Qian with a calm expression, "I'm here to see you on Suifeng's behalf."

Mu Qian probably noticed something, looked at the time and then said: "Then please, Miss Shen, please get straight to the point."

"Come back to China with me from the summit." Shen Yan stared at Mu Qian's face, "We will get married this year."

There was no expression on Mu Qian's face that Shen Yan wanted to see. On the contrary, she laughed out loud, "So, you are here to inform me that he is cheating on you, right?"

"We are all adults, there is no need to waste words on these matters." Shen Yan took out a check from her handbag and pushed it in front of Mu Qian, "This is the compensation Sui Feng gives you."

Mu Qian picked up the check and counted the zeros on it, raising her eyebrows slightly, "Two million, considering the current economy, is it a little too little?"

A flash of contempt flashed in Shen Yan's eyes, "Given Miss Mu's background, this amount of money is not small. Besides, with Miss Mu's qualifications, there are many high-level branches for you to climb, so there should be plenty of opportunities to make money like this."

"That's true." Mu Qian nodded in agreement, "Then I have to thank Miss Shen for complimenting me and giving me a heads up?"

When Shen Yan looked at Mu Qian like this, the expression on her face did not change, but her breathing speeded up slightly.

Mu Qiansheng is very beautiful. This kind of beauty is natural. Although she also wears exquisite and perfect makeup, what catches the eye is the dazzling face under the makeup. It is obviously very delicate and beautiful, but there is no trace of kitsch. Change In other words, this kind of woman can be as beautiful as she wants.

Shen Yan was lost for a moment, and before she could speak, the door of the cafe was suddenly pushed open by someone, and with the cold wind pouring in, Ji Suifeng's tall figure appeared in the cafe.

When Ji Suifeng saw Mu Qian and Shen Yan sitting together, his handsome features instantly froze.

Mu Qian sat back on the sofa, looked at him leisurely, and smiled.

Ji Suifeng strode over and pulled Shen Yan up, "What are you doing?"

Shen Yan's face was very calm, "You are late, I have told her everything that needs to be said."

Ji Suifeng was so angry that the tips of the fingers holding Shen Yan's wrist turned white. Then, he looked at Mu Qian stiffly.

Mu Qian looked at him and Shen Yan as if they were watching a show, and nodded after meeting his gaze, "Well, she has finished what she said, now it's your turn."

Ji Suifeng just looked at her, with various emotions clearly visible in his dark pupils. He said nothing as his breathing rose and fell.

Mu Qian didn't have the patience to interpret the silent words in his eyes. She looked at the time and frowned, "I don't have much time. If you want to say something, hurry up. You can tell me that Miss Shen is in love with you unrequitedly." , I have a deep love for you, so I used this method to break us up."

Shen Yan sneered when she heard this, Ji Suifeng's face was stiff and cold, and he still couldn't speak when he met Mu Qian's burning eyes.

"So you have nothing to say, right?" Mu Qian didn't want to waste any more time and stood up, "Okay, I understand."

Mu Qian walked towards the door of the cafe, and Ji Suifeng suddenly reached out and took her arm, "Qian Qian!"

Mu Qian didn't intend to stop, Ji Suifeng held her and didn't let go, and directly pulled the down jacket she was wearing off her shoulders.

Under the down jacket, Mu Qian only wore a sexy tube top little black dress, which was as short as her thighs, outlining her graceful curves, revealing her smooth and slender neck and large areas of skin as white as jade, paired with the attractive little smoky look on her face. The makeup was clearly done carefully.

Ji Suifeng was stunned, while Shen Yan sneered unceremoniously and looked at Mu Qian, "I have never seen a reporter like Miss Mu."

Mu Qian laughed when she heard the words, the corners of her mouth were curled just right, and every part of her delicate face exuded a moving brilliance, arrogant and charming.

"Then what can I do?" She said with a sigh, "After all, it's not my fault that I'm beautiful."

After saying this, Mu Qian completely broke free from the shackles of the down jacket, opened the door, and walked into the ice and snow outside the window.

Ji Suifeng raised his foot and wanted to chase him out. Shen Yan grabbed him and said in a cold voice, "Ji Suifeng, you don't think you can continue to have a relationship with her after being with me, do you? Do you think I am so easy to get rid of?"

Ji Suifeng froze, but the next moment, he broke away from Shen Yan and strode out of the cafe.

Shen Yan's expression suddenly changed.

However, after Ji Suifeng walked out of the cafe, he stopped at the door and just stared in the direction Mu Qian left.

When they first met in Philadelphia, he chased her for two years and dated her for two years. At the moment of his betrayal, she was reluctant to give him even a hint of anger and grievance.

Ji Suifeng looked at Mu Qian's retreating back with red eyes, and finally turned stiffly in the other direction.

On the other side, Mu Qian walked forward gracefully facing the surprised or astonished gazes of passers-by, like a mysterious and stunning flower blooming all the way in winter.

At the end of the month, Ji Suifeng and Shen Yan left Philadelphia and both returned to China.

In early February, the American a.d news agency exposed a major scandal involving a group of wealthy second-generation people in Philadelphia gathering for drug abuse and sexual incest. Reporter Mu Qian investigated and reported the scandal.

…

At the end of the year and the beginning of the year, Tongcheng.

The office buildings in the Central Business District are deserted as never before, but the 26th floor of Huo's Building is still in an orderly working condition.

Secretary Zhuang Yan sorted out the materials sent by various departments, knocked on the door of the president's office and walked in.

Huo Jinxi was sitting behind the desk reading documents. Although he had been in the office for most of the day, the suit he was wearing was still straight and crisp. Even his hair style was not messy. There was the usual alienation and indifference between his eyebrows. He was obviously busy with too many things. But there was not even a hint of fatigue on his body.

Zhuang Yan has been with him for several years and has become accustomed to him being so upright and dignified before and after others.

If he hadn't acted like this, the big ship of the Huo family would have sunk in the storm seven years ago. At that time, he was only in his twenties, and he single-handedly carried the precarious Huo family and spent seven years to bring the Huo family back to life. Tongcheng's status as the leader of enterprises and its mentality and methods are not accessible to ordinary people.

Zhuang Yan put several documents on his desk and reported them one by one.

Huo Jinxi listened quietly without looking away from the document in hand.

There was a "ding" sound from the computer, which was an email reminder.

Huo Jinxi then raised his head and glanced at the computer screen.

Then, he actually put down the document in his hand.

Zhuang Yan was very surprised and couldn't help but look at the computer screen.

On the screen was a photo of a woman. The background looked like a foreign country, with a world of ice and snow. All the pedestrians around were tightly wrapped in heavy clothes. Only that woman was standing on the street wearing a tube top little black dress, not caring about the eyes of others.

, when she saw someone taking pictures of herself, she even smiled at the camera.

Like a little witch in a fairy tale world, she is as stunningly beautiful as a summer flower.

Zhuang Yan still wanted to look at it again, but Huo Jinxi had already closed the photo. Realizing that he had lost his composure, Zhuang Yan hurriedly turned around and walked toward the door.

When she reached the door and turned around to close the door, she saw Huo Jinxi standing up, walking to the window and lighting a cigarette.

The clouds outside the floor-to-ceiling windows were thick and had been hazy for most of the day, but at this time, the belated sunlight broke through the clouds and shone in the distance.

Huo Jinxi held a cigarette between his fingers, thinking deeply.
