He Yichen saw this glaring scene as soon as he entered the room, his hands clenched, and his face turned pale.

Xiang Heng said to Lao Yuan, "These are all important people who came today."

Xiang Heng: "Yes, we could get to know each other. What do you think, Yi Chen?"

Not hearing a sound, the two looked at him and noticed that he looked unwell. Following his gaze, Xiang Heng knew what had happened.

Old Yuan was confused: "What's wrong with Yi Chen?"

Xiang Heng sighed, "Alas, Yi Chen is troubled by love."

Old Yuan, always eager for gossip: "What's going on? Tell me about it."

Xiang Heng glanced at He Yichen, and seeing that he didn't say anything, he said to Lao Yuan, "See that over there?"

He gestured towards He Yimei's side, and Old Yuan looked over. Two young people were talking, looking rather close. Upon closer inspection, he realized, "Isn't that Yimei? Yichen's sister. What does she have to do with Yichen being troubled by love?"

Xiang Heng: "A sister who is not related to you by blood, why do you say that?" He then gestured to He Yichen, who was staring over there, his face growing increasingly grim.

Old Yuan understood: "I didn't expect that Yi Chen's feelings are still unrequited. It seems he doesn't have the right to go and assert his claim yet."

Xiang Heng: "More than that, our great lawyer He has had a crush on her since before college."

Old Yuan looked surprised: "I never thought that our popular lawyer would have a crush on someone, and be so devoted, remaining chaste for so many years."

Xiang Heng was also filled with emotion, but looking at the dazzling He Yimei over there, he wasn't surprised. She was beautiful and outstanding, so her charm was naturally great.

He Yichen couldn't resist and walked over to stand in front of the two of them.

"Yi Mei, you're here today too?"

When He Yimei saw He Yichen, she felt that the more she tried to avoid him, the more likely she was to run into him.

"Yes, this is a party hosted by Mr. Chen, the CEO of our company's partner, the Chen Group."

He Yichen greeted him: "Hello, President Chen, I am He Yichen."

Looking at the two of them, President Chen asked He Yimei, "President He, what's this?"

He Yimei: "This is my brother, he is a lawyer."

After understanding, Mr. Chen greeted He Yichen, "Hello, Attorney He."

He Yichen breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that they seemed to have only a working relationship.

What he didn't know was that President Chen had expressed his feelings for He Yimei, but He Yimei had no other feelings for President Chen and politely declined.

Mr. Chen is also someone who knows when to cut his losses, so he didn't press the issue, and the two only talked about work.

Old Yuan said, "Let's go, let's go see what's going on." He pulled Xiang Heng along.

When they reached the group, Old Yuan looked at He Yimei and said, "Isn't this Yimei? Long time no see."

Xiang Heng said with a smile, "Our school beauty this year is a very busy person, it's rare to see her."

He Yimei nodded to them: "Senior Brother Yuan, Brother Xiang." After all, she was younger than Xiang Heng, so it was fine to call him "brother".

After exchanging pleasantries for a while, He Yimei took her leave.

She refused He Yichen's offer to take her home and left first.

The three watched her walk away, and Old Yuan sighed, "Yi Chen, you still have a long way to go. Keep going, I believe in you."

Xiang Heng asked He Yichen, "Does she know? She's avoiding you."

He Yichen was in a sullen mood. He said, "Hmm." Then he left, needing to go back and calm down.

He Yimei started working on a new project. She only needed to finish this one of her two projects. Once she finished it, she could take some time to go home.

That day, Fu Yu met with someone outside to discuss business. The other party was a handsome and gentlemanly man. Through their work interactions, Fu Yu developed a strong admiration for He Yimei.

She has worked her way up from nothing, which shows her exceptional abilities. Not to mention, she is also a woman who is so beautiful that you can't take your eyes off her. A woman who is capable, beautiful and smart naturally has endless charm.

However, He Yimei always dealt with work in a businesslike manner and was rather aloof, so I didn't receive any special treatment from her for the time being.

After they finished talking, they went to the parking lot together, said goodbye, got into their car, and planned to go home.

He Yimei only realized there was a problem with the car after she got in. She usually drives herself and hadn't called a driver yet.

I tried it and it was indeed faulty, so I called someone to tow it away for repairs.

Fu Yu, who was in the car, saw that He Yimei hadn't left yet, so he got out of the car and walked over.

"Yi Mei, is something wrong?"

He Yimei: "The car has a problem, so I'm getting it towed to be repaired."

Fu Yu invited, "Then you can ride in my car, I'll take you home."

Seeing that He Yimei hesitated, he continued, "It's getting late, and it's not easy for you to get a taxi by yourself."

He Yimei felt that since they were also business partners, she couldn't show too much resistance, so she agreed.

"Okay, thank you for your help, Mr. Fu."

"We've known each other for a while now, so just call me by my name. I always call you by your name," Fu Yu said with a smile.

He Yimei didn't hesitate: "Okay, Fu Yu."

I got into the car with Fu Yu, told the driver the address, and we set off for Junyue Mansion.

“Yi Mei, you live in Junyue Mansion? I also have a suite there, so I can go back to stay there tonight,” Fu Yu said.

He Yimei: "Hmm, that's quite a coincidence."

Fu Yu: "Your car is being repaired. You can ride in my car to work tomorrow morning."

He Yimei refused: "No need, I'll have someone pick me up tomorrow."

Seeing her insistence, Fu Yu could only let her have her way and couldn't push her too hard.

Upon arriving at the parking lot, He Yimei got out of the car and said goodbye, "Thank you for bringing me back today. See you another day."

Fu Yu smiled and said, "See you later."

The car door closed, and the car drove away.

He Yimei walked to the elevator entrance to wait for the elevator, and looked at her phone, unaware that someone was staring at her with dark eyes.

He Yichen hadn't seen He Yimei for a while since the last time he met her at the party, so he left work early today to come and see her.

I didn't dare call her directly, afraid she would refuse, so I drove straight over.

Unexpectedly, upon seeing this scene, he gripped the steering wheel tightly until his hands turned white, his eyes fixed on them.

Seeing the two chatting and laughing, he even offered to take her home, but she refused.

He Yichen felt heartbroken whenever he thought that their relationship might not be a normal working one, and that they might like each other.

I find this situation hard to accept; I can't even bear to think about it.

I've known for a long time that my feelings for He Yimei have only grown deeper over the years, and they haven't faded with time.

Instead, they care more and more, to the point of being out of control.

He Yichen sat in the underground parking lot for two hours, then sped off to drink.

He got completely drunk when he got home, slept for a while, and the next day, after washing up, he went to work with a blank expression.

After a day's work, I go home and continue to numb myself with work, then start drinking again in the middle of the night.

He Yichen has been in a very bad state these past few days, which is obvious to the naked eye. Xiang Heng noticed it at a glance and thought it must be related to He Yimei.

He secretly made a phone call to He Yimei.

He Yimei hesitated for a moment after seeing the unfamiliar number before answering it.
