"Master Xiao hates rumors spreading within the group the most. If he gets to know these things, I'm afraid you'll all be called to a meeting."

Assistant Wu reminded with a smile.

The executives heard the hidden meaning in his words and asked, "So, this is just a rumor, and Mr. Xiao is still single?"

"Mr. Xiao just came back from Shanghai. I've been staying in the company all this time, so I really don't know if he's married or not. If he is, he should tell everyone. I should also go back and report my recent work to Mr. Xiao."

Assistant Wu nodded slightly and left.

Several ministers looked at each other, puzzled, "So, is Mr. Xiao married or not?"

"Assistant Wu said it as if he hadn't said anything at all."

After entering the office, Assistant Wu remembered the reactions of the senior executives and asked, "Mr. Xiao, are you planning to disclose your marital status?"

"Not right now."

Xiao Chuyi said without raising his head.

Announcing it now would only put Ah Qing in the spotlight.

Besides, if that woman knew his identity, she would probably pack her bags and run away immediately.

Everything needs to be planned slowly.

"Master Xiao, Madam asked me to tell you to go back after you finish dealing with the company's affairs."

"Ah."

“Miss Han recently returned to China, and Madam invited her to dinner at the Xiao family tonight.”

Assistant Wu added another sentence.

Mr. Xiao is the future heir of the Xiao family, and his marriage is also very important, which is related to the future development of the group.

The Han family is very influential in the Beijing circle and cooperates with the Xiao Group in many aspects, and their relationship is extraordinary.

The ladies have been friends for many years and had arranged an engagement for Mr. Xiao and Miss Han before they were born.

Mr. Xiao and Miss Han grew up together. Miss Han is excellent in every aspect. She is the leading socialite in the Beijing circle and is deeply loved by his wife.

Over the years, the lady has tried many times to bring the two together.

But now Mr. Xiao has secretly obtained a marriage certificate with Miss Su.

Miss Su is indeed beautiful, but her family situation and other aspects are not as good as Miss Han's.

If my wife knew about this, she would definitely be furious.

Even if Mr. Xiao had not informed her in advance, it would have been extremely difficult for Miss Su to enter the Xiao family.

The Xiao family’s mansion is located in the city center. Its exterior is in European retro style and looks particularly grand.

A black Maybach slowly drove into the mansion.

Various flowers were blooming on both sides of the road. In the garden, Mrs. Xiao was leisurely enjoying afternoon tea.

Although she is over fifty, there is not a single wrinkle on her face and her cheeks are round, making her look as if she is only in her early thirties.

Opposite her, a woman in a Chanel-style skirt sat upright, the skirt just revealing her slender legs. Her sitting posture was very decent, and even her smile was just right.

"Xiao Yiyi is back."

Hearing the voice, Mrs. Xiao stood up immediately.

After seeing Xiao Chuyi, she couldn't stop smiling.

The eldest daughter of the Han family, who had been very relaxed just now, suddenly became nervous. After a moment, she turned around and greeted Xiao Chuyi generously, "Chuyi, long time no see."

"Ah."

Xiao Chuyi just nodded slightly.

Madam Xiao had long been accustomed to his indifferent look, so she took the initiative to ask: "You have been in Shanghai for so long, you should stay this time, right?"

"I have to go back in a few days."

"You are the president of Xiao Corporation. The group cannot do without you. What good can there be in the Shanghai Stock Exchange? Why do you have to stay there?"

Mrs. Xiao was a little confused.

"The group plans to open a new branch in Shanghai, and I need to oversee it personally."

Madam Xiao didn't believe this at all. She stared at Xiao Chuyi and asked, "It's just a branch office. You never cared about these trivial matters before. Tell me the truth, is there something else going on over there?"

"Aunt Guo, I think Chu Yi just wants to experience the differences between different cities, just like how I longed for life in China after going abroad."

Han Yingyue smoothed things over for Xiao Chuyi.

After hearing what she said, Madam Xiao did not pester her any further, "Yueyue is right."

She glanced at Xiao Chuyi with a reproachful look, "Look at Yueyue, she's thinking so carefully about you, afraid that I might cause you trouble."

"Aunt Guo, I just told the truth."

Han Yingyue smiled embarrassedly.

"Okay, okay, you two haven't seen each other for a long time, go chat for a while. I won't be a light bulb anymore."

After saying that, Madam Xiao smiled and prepared to leave.

At this time, Xiao Chuyi's cold voice rang out: "I already have a lover."

"what?"

The sudden words surprised Mrs. Xiao.

Han Yingyue widened her eyes, quietly pinched the hem of her skirt, and forced herself to remain calm.

"I won't marry anyone else but her. I'm going to take a shower. I have a meeting tonight."

Xiao Chuyi left after saying this.

Han Yingyue's face was pale and her body was staggering, but she still maintained the demeanor of a lady from a noble family.

Facing Madam Xiao's concerned gaze, she acted calmly, "I went abroad after graduating from university and haven't seen Chu Yi for four years. It's normal for him to have someone he likes."

"He never mentioned this to me. Don't worry, I will explain it to you."

Mrs. Xiao said with some distress.

"I'm fine, Aunt Guo. The girl Chu Yi likes must be great."

Han Yingyue forced a smile and said, "I have other plans tonight, so I won't stay here for dinner."

Han Yingyue found an excuse to slip away, and after getting in the car, she finally couldn't hold back her tears.

Xiao's father just came back. Xiao's mother was sitting on the sofa with her arms folded across her chest. She said in a somewhat sarcastic tone, "All you do every day is play that golf ball. You don't care about the children at home at all."

"Who made you angry?"

Father Xiao sat down next to her, put his arm around her waist, and smiled gently, "I knew Xiaoyi was home, so I came back early."

"Then do you know that Xiaoyi has fallen in love with a girl?"

"The girl you like?"

Father Xiao didn't react for a moment, "Whose girl is this?"

"I don't know."

Xiao's mother recounted what happened in the garden in detail. "I guess that girl is in Shanghai, otherwise why would Xiaoyi always go there? We don't know whose daughter she is, but she could have charmed our son so much."

Two days later.

Su Yanqing stretched her body and sent the sketch she had just drawn to Anna.

Soon, Anna called. "Joyce, you always amaze me. Most designers find it hard to come up with new ideas, but your work is more impressive each time. I'm sure the new products you release this time will cause quite a stir."

"really?"

Su Yanqing just yawned nonchalantly and didn't take it seriously.

Anna also knew that she was the kind of person who didn't care about the outside world's opinions, so she changed the topic and said, "Gu Yu invited me to attend their August press conference. They say there's a new designer, called Little Joyce, who's as talented as you were back then. How about going together to take a look?"
