In essence, her marriage to He Yichuan was an advantage for her. He Yichuan allowed her to settle down in China for a long time, and his family was so powerful that no one dared to touch her.

The two of them were estranged before and could go their separate ways at any time. The contract clearly stated that he was only responsible for giving a name and lending some power, but it was impossible for him to protect her. Therefore, although she was nominally a member of the He family in her previous life, she was still constantly going on missions to help Huaguo obtain information to provide her value, just to seek shelter for them when she found her parents in the future.

Now she has no plans to look for it again, and she doesn't need to worry about any threats from weaknesses. After all, she is alone and there is no need to be afraid.

Now their relationship has changed, He Yichuan has a strong sense of responsibility, and the He family also plans to publicly recognize her. She doesn't want to embark on a life of hardship, she just wants to stay in China safely and live a peaceful life. A man's family background is the best safe haven.

As for how far this relationship will go and how long it will last, she didn't dare to think about it. She could only let it develop naturally. After all, she had already died once.

She has already sacrificed her entire life for that illusory family affection. No matter whether the situation is good or bad in this life, she should consider herself.

Late at night, after his thoughts had calmed down, Su Xi went upstairs.

On the first floor.

Butler Li had not yet fallen asleep. He was sitting in the courtyard, warming himself by the stove and drinking tea.

As he drank, he smacked his lips and sighed, "The young master and young lady are just around the corner. I must tell the master to give me a raise."

During the days when He Yichuan was away on business, Su Xi was not idle either. He asked the housekeeper to prepare information on all the famous families in Beijing, sort out the connections of each family bit by bit, and quickly memorize all the major relationship networks in his mind.

The housekeeper was very happy to receive the task, thinking that his wife was finally taking on the responsibility. He did his best to prepare for it, and for some more private matters, he even asked the old house owner to use his connections to find out.

The villa, which had been quiet for a long time, seemed to have welcomed its hostess. It became highly active and full of joy.

She stayed in the villa for several days, and she was a little uncomfortable with the comfortable life.

One night, after finishing his work, Su Xi went to He Yichuan's garage, picked a car at random, and drove out.

Night falls.

Neon lights crisscrossed the road, and bright snowflakes scattered on the ground. The weather was cold, but there were quite a few pedestrians on the road.

Su Xi randomly found a parking space on the side of the road, got out of the car and walked slowly forward. The ground where he stepped was left with traces of deep and shallow traces accompanied by snowflakes.

She found the nearest shop and went in.

The shop owner and his wife were discussing something, and the owner's child was playing nearby, so no one noticed someone entering the shop. The child was sharp-eyed and immediately turned around and shouted to his parents, "Dad, there's a customer."

The shop owner stopped talking, turned around, and asked enthusiastically, "Sister, what would you like to eat?"

She was never picky about food, as long as she could fill her stomach, she ordered a few dishes and a bottle of beer. She had been treated so well by housekeeper Li these days that she almost forgot what barbecue and beer felt like.

There were fewer customers at that time, so the boss brought the dishes quickly.

Su Xi poured herself a beer first, touched the glass lightly with her red lips, took a sip, and then slowly moved her chopsticks.

He Yichuan had just landed in Beijing after a business trip when his good friend Fang Junjie called him, "Brother Chuan, what are you doing? Come out for a drink!"

He Yichuan sat in the back seat. The assistant in the front seat turned his head to look at him, tapped his chin lightly, and signaled the assistant to let the driver drive: "Just got back from a business trip."

"Then don't go home, brother Chuan. Come to my place first, and then we'll go to Ashe to drink. Anyway, you'll have no one to hang out with when you go home." Fang Junjie mumbled a series of words on the phone, and then made arrangements: "I'll call Cheng Ke and the other three, and we'll set up a party to welcome you back."

After saying that, she hung up the phone without waiting for his reply.

He Yichuan didn't care. He bent his slender fingers and tapped the leather of the seat. He said to his assistant Xiao Feng: "Send me to Mr. Fang. You can send the luggage to Yulong Bay later."

Xiao Feng turned his head to look at the boss in the back seat. The man was tall and straight in a black suit, with long drooping eyelashes, strong facial features and unique temperament.

"Okay, young master."

The man suddenly thought of Su Xi who lived in Yulong Bay. He didn't know what she was doing these days. He went out as soon as he came back without telling her. It seemed not good. Couples in ordinary families should have such a process.

But when he called, it seemed that their relationship had not reached that point yet.

He Yichuan drummed his fingers on his suit pants as he thought, "Xiao Feng, when you send my luggage to Yulong Bay, tell my wife that I will be back later."

When Xiao Feng heard He Yichuan's order, he suddenly turned his head to the back seat. He was shocked and thought he had misheard. He asked tentatively, "Young Master, did you just say Madam?"

He Yichuan glanced at him. After being with him for so many years, why was he so impatient? He replied nonchalantly, "Yeah."

If Xiao Feng knew what He Yichuan was thinking at this moment, he would definitely cry out in injustice. He is with He Yichuan every day, and this man who has never been interested in women suddenly has a wife. Xiao Feng is completely confused.

"Young Master, excuse me for asking, but is our wife real?"

He Yichuan glanced at him sharply without saying a word.

Seeing this, Xiao Feng turned around, closed his mouth, sat up straight, and dared not say another word.

Half an hour later, a luxurious Maybach stopped in a large courtyard, which was brightly lit and filled with sports cars.

Fang Junjie was test-driving the latest luxury sports car in the yard. From a distance, he saw He Yichuan get out of the car, step on the accelerator and drive towards him slightly.

"Brother Chuan, are we here yet?"

He Yichuan hummed, looked around, and asked expressionlessly, "Anyone else?"

Fang Junjie stepped out of the car, walked around and opened the passenger seat of the sports car, and replied: "Oh, they said they would go directly there and not come to my place. I asked them to come and see my newest pet, but they didn't come."

"How about it, Brother Chuan, this style and color are all good, right?" He said while patting the door of the sports car.

"Well, not bad." He Yichuan took a look, he wasn't very interested and just answered casually.

Fang Junjie suggested excitedly, "Come on, get in the car and I'll take you there."

"Well, close the roof."

When Fang Junjie heard his request, he was speechless for a moment, but he didn't say anything. After all, He Yichuan was usually like this.

At night, there are lights and feasting everywhere.

He Yichuan leaned tiredly on the passenger seat. He was a little tired from the intense work during the business trip. He said in a low voice, "Do you have any cigarettes?"
