Xie Ling's heart sank to the bottom.

Although she was domineering, she was not rebellious and always regarded Xie Geng's words as sacred decrees. This time, running away from home had taken all her courage.

"Is Father really unwilling to break off the engagement? He could at least find someone else."

Xie Huai couldn't help but sigh.

"It won't make a difference if you change the person. Ever since you had the idea of ​​running away from the wedding, you can no longer let your father arrange things for you like before."

Xie Ling seemed deflated.

"I'll think about it."

Xie Ling frowned, somewhat nervous. Her intention in leaving this time was only to threaten Xie Geng into canceling the engagement, but now it seemed that this was simply not feasible.

After that day, Xie Ling kept herself locked in her room.

Xie Ling did not come out even when night fell.

"Wen Yao, I'm going back to the hotel now."

Seeing that it was getting late, Xie Huai decided to go to the hotel he had booked in advance.

"Let me see you off. I also have something to tell you."

The hotel wasn't far from here, and the two walked side by side along the roadside.

"Xie Huai, do you own any mines? My Mingcuifang is out of stock."

Xie Huai glanced at her with his head down.

"Yes, I can supply you with the goods."

Xie Huai readily agreed.

"Thank you. Lingyu is the place with the highest jade production in the world, and the best mines in Lingyu are all in the hands of your Xie family. I have no choice but to ask you for it."

"My grandfather was younger than I am when he went south. When he first arrived in Lingyu, he was also doing hard labor."

"Our family is where it is today thanks to the hard work of my father and grandfather."

After years of hard work, having taken over the entire Lingyu mine, Wen Yao felt that Xie Huai was still too low-key.

“My grandfather suffered a lot in Lingyu, so he later demanded that the men in his family could only marry women from the Dragon Kingdom.”

Wen Yao remembered that Mrs. Xie was also from China.

"But what about you? Will you also get married according to your grandfather's wishes? What if the woman you like doesn't have Chinese blood?"

Xie Huai paused, looking down at Wen Yao.

Then he gave a bitter smile.

"I do not know."

"Ok."

Wen Yao sighed. Every family has its own troubles.

I hope you have a wonderful life in the future.

We had arrived at the hotel.

Xie Huai took a deep breath.

"Wen Yao, thank you for helping Xie Ling. I will have someone contact your staff when I return to Lingyu in a while."

Wen Yao smiled

"It's okay, I'll go back now."

After saying that, Wen Yao started walking back.

After one night, Wen Yao went to the company early as usual.

That day, Wen Yao wore a blue Miu Miu dress, and her hair hung down naturally.

"Hello, Chairman."

As I entered, several staff members at the front desk stood up to greet me.

Wen Yao nodded politely.

But Wen Yao had just entered the elevator.

The girls exchanged smiles and then jumped up and down.

"Did you see the news? That guy yesterday really is the chairman's boyfriend."

"I saw them. They were walking together at night. They looked so good together. They even went back to the hotel together at night."

"Ahhh, I finally got it right."

At this moment, after Wen Yao stepped out of the elevator, she encountered many people along the way.

Everyone had a knowing smile on their face.

"Tang Zhen, what's going on today? Did something good happen? Everyone I've seen since I came in is smiling."

Tang Zhen arrived half an hour earlier than Wen Yao.

"Miss, haven't you seen it yet? Your 'romance' was on the news again last night."

"what?!"

Wen Yao exclaimed in surprise. Where did she get this relationship? And what was she trending on social media this time?

Tang Zhen took out her phone and showed it to Wen Yao.

“Last night, you and Mr. Xie were walking together on the roadside when you were spotted and photographed by passersby. Everyone said that you two were incredibly sweet together.”

Wen Yao glanced at the photo on her phone; it was indeed her and Xie Huai.

But if that passerby had taken just a little more pictures! She clearly went home after dropping Xie Huai off at the hotel.

What do you mean they went back to the hotel together? She has a house in Haicheng, a huge villa, why would she stay in a hotel?

The comment section was completely flooded with comments.

"They're such a perfect match. I haven't seen such a well-matched couple in a long time."

"I agree to this marriage."

"Don't be impatient. Although this man's looks are comparable to the rich woman's, we don't know what his background is like yet!"

"Besides the Lu family, there are two other powerful families in our Dragon Kingdom where wealthy young ladies can choose their husbands. The Song and Jiang families also have two heirs in the queue."

"That's right, that's right. Let's find out who this man is first. Just having a pretty face isn't enough."

"..."

Then, Xie Huai's photo was enlarged and went viral.

When Wen Yao saw these comments, she helplessly touched her forehead.

"Another rumor needs to be debunked."

"Miss, before you came to the company, a lot of people came to ask me gossip."

Wen Yao's eyes lit up; thankfully, Tang Zhen was willing to help her clarify things.

"So? Did you explain it to them clearly?"

Tang Zhen shook his head helplessly.

“They only want to believe their own thoughts. There are a lot of your CP fans in the company now. They just think that I am helping you hide your relationship. If I say anything more, they will say that I don’t know anything and that you have also kept it from me.”

Wen Yao's lips twitched slightly.

They still have too much free time.

"Tang Zhen, write a clarification statement so I can post it on the homepage."

"it is good."

Then, Tang Zhen started working.

As soon as Wen Yao sat down in her office chair, she was bombarded with WeChat messages, all from Song Zhiqian.

"Wen Yao, isn't this Xie Huai?! You and Xie Huai are really together?"

"When did this happen? How come I didn't know about it?"

"Wen Yao, I'm angry. You don't consider me a true friend at all. You didn't even tell me about this."

Two minutes later, Song Zhiqian sent another message.

"I see you haven't clarified this yet, is it really true?"

Wen Yao glanced down and saw the screen was filled with messages.

"Song Zhiqian, aren't you being ridiculous? How could this be true? Xie Huai and I haven't seen each other in ages."

Song Zhiqian replied almost instantly

"Then why did everyone see you enter the hotel together?"

"Who saw it? I just took him back to his hotel."

"Oh, okay, I also thought you were real just because the photo was so clear."

Wen Yao put down her phone and stopped replying to him.

In just one morning, Xie Huai's identity was exposed.

"The heir of the Xie family of Lingyu?! Wow, that's quite a mysterious identity."

"The Xie family? Never heard of them. Are they as wealthy as the Song and Jiang families?"

"You're ignorant. In terms of wealth, the Xie family may not be as powerful as the others, but they have power in Lingyu. They not only have power but also an army. Even the president of Lingyu has to give the Xie family some face."
