Xiao ng walked to the corner outside the door, saw that there weren’t many people, and picked up the phone.
"Hello?"
"Aunt, where are you now?"
"I’m having a eting outside, it’s already over. You finally have news."
"Yeah, I have news now. Co to my place tonight; I can’t explain it clearly over the phone. I just arrived in Beijing and I’m heading ho."
Su Xiaong really wanted to ask over the phone, but...
"Okay, well, take your ti on the road. See you at ho."
Su Xiaong pressed her lips tightly, her expression a bit tense... She clutched the phone tightly, had a mont of distraction, and didn’t dare ask too much earlier. Now she began to ponder the tone in Shan Mingxu’s voice, even starting to speculate whether that tone would bring good news or bad...
"I didn’t see you show such a nervous expression when you were on stage explaining the plan earlier... Whose call was it?"
"Was there..."
Su Xiaong murmured in response.
Only after replying did she realize that the person asking her was Rong Jing, who had just walked out of the conference hall.
A few steps behind him were the Rong Family’s planning team.
They all looked gloomy, and it’s not hard to imagine Rong Jing venting his anger on them.
Rong Jing belonged to the type of man who indeed looks beautiful, a man who can be considered beautiful, sowhat androgynous.
His long eyes are of the type that looks mischievous.
However, when those thin lips curl, they manage to look strangely attractive and handso.
When Su Xiaong first t him, she honestly admitted that he looked very good, but this kind of good looks wasn’t to her taste.
What she liked was soone like her husband...
Big eyes, thick eyebrows, keen and deep gaze, thin lips, a prominent nose, and a gentle smile that is neither distant nor intimate.
Yeah, just like that...
Su Xiaong missed him to the point that while looking at soone whose features were entirely different from her husband’s, gradually, her vision seed to distort his features into her husband’s image...
"Looking at like that... Su Xiaong, could it be you’ve taken a liking to ?"
In fact, it wasn’t really Rong Jing being narcissistic; Su Xiaong had just finished the call with Shan Mingxu, and her mind was only occupied with news about Yin Shixiu.
Rong Jing’s sudden appearance in front of her hadn’t been able to pull her thoughts back.
And thus...
The look she gave Rong Jing led him to misunderstand.
Su Xiaong raised her eyebrows slightly, did not hurriedly shake her head, just calmly and lightly explained,
"No, I was just thinking of Shixiu."
"..."
Rong Jing originally thought Su Xiaong would retort, but unexpectedly... She was so honest it made people uncomfortable!
Su Xiaong pulled her drifting thoughts back, "I’m leaving now."
Rong Jing did not stop her either.
Chen Lan had already driven the car over, and Su Xiaong got in.
"Take to the Shan Family."
"Okay."
...
Rong Jing stood at the door...
The assistant beside him walked up to him,
"This woman... is really not simple."
Rong Jing had his hands in his pockets, "Brother Shixiu’s judgnt stands here; I should be on guard... Seems I’ve underestimated this girl."
Another man smacked his lips,
"It’s a pity she’s so young and beautiful, yet already a young widow."
"Yes... Speaking of which, if soone were to marry her, would the dowry be the entire Yin Group?"
"Wow! Makes you wonder! This woman..."
The people around were chattering and laughing, their scattered conversation ending up in Rong Jing’s ears.
He touched his chin, which had a slight stubble, and looked in the direction where the sports car had left... His beautiful eyes indeed flashed a profound, mischievous light.
The entire Yin Group as a dowry...

Shan Mingxu didn’t expect to go on a task, and it would take half a month.
The task ended, and he returned to report.
The contents of the yacht’s black box had been fully decoded and extracted.
Shan Minglang received the information and hurried ho without even taking off his military uniform.
He knew that Su Xiaong had waited too long; not only Su Xiaong, but he also shared the feeling that this suspended heart finally had a slight landing spot.
When he arrived at the Shan family’s place, it wasn’t yet five in the evening.
He returned dust-covered... He hadn’t entered the house yet when he heard the sound of a car approaching, and after waiting for a mont, he noticed it was his father driving back from outside.
Shan Munan parked the car, saw Shan Mingxu in his military uniform standing at the door, and was a bit taken aback,
"How co you’re back?"
Shan Mingxu scratched his short, spiky hair and walked over to lift the vegetables his father was carrying,
"Dad, did you go to the market?"
"Yes."
Although Shan Munan was a great literati with an aura of a scholar, he was actually very taciturn.
