Lin Xiao didn't speak for a long time after listening to Xu Yan's explanation. Xu Yan sat up straight, looked at Lin Xiao and asked, "Are you angry?"

"No," Lin Xiao said.

"Then why do you have such an expression?" Xu Yan asked, "We have said before that we have something to say."

Lin Xiao looked at Xu Yan's frowned eyebrows, stretched out his hand, traced her eyebrows, and said, "I'm just scared."

Xu Yan didn't understand: "What are you afraid of?"

"I'm afraid that one day you will leave me." Lin Xiao said.

Everyone said that it was Xu Yan’s blessing that Lin Xiao fell in love with Xu Yan, and it was Xu Yan’s success.

Without Lin Xiao, she, Xu Yan, is nothing.

However, only Lin Xiao knows how good his Yanyan is. If she had not met him, Xu Yan would have continued her previous life.

Graduate, join the workforce, stand out at work, and create another life, a life without him.

She will also meet another man, fall in love with him, get married and have children, and Xu Yan's beauty will be discovered by another person.

Thinking of this, Lin Xiao would feel panic in his heart.

It has always been that he can't lose Xu Yan, not that Xu Yan can't live without him.

"Lin Xiao, you have to believe in the future we will fight for together. Believe in me and believe in yourself." Xu Yan said.

Lin Xiao's lips moved, but he still didn't express his inner thoughts at this moment.

He wanted to stop Seo Yeon from going to work. He wanted her to stay at home, right by his side.

But looking at Xu Yan's eyes that were shining like stars at this moment, she didn't say anything.

The matter of the engagement party has spread in the circle. The marriage between the Qi and Chen families ended here.

If this matter hadn't become such a big deal and only the elders of the two families knew about it. There is a high probability that this marriage will not break up.

But now it is a matter of face. If the Qi family still agrees to the marriage, they will not be able to hold their head high in this circle.

As a victim, Qi Xinyue also became a topic that others talked about after dinner.

But she didn't care. Maybe it was better to be laughed at than to be tied to such a man for the rest of her life.

For a family like theirs, once they get married, it is difficult to divorce. What they get married is not a marriage, but the interests of the two families.

However, there is no Chen family, there are other families. Qi Xinyue stood in the study, feeling cold in her heart. She listened numbly to her biological grandfather and father, after experiencing the betrayal of her fiancé.

There was no relief for her at all, but she was discussing which other family in Haicheng would be suitable for marriage with them.

Qi Xinyue wanted to argue and resist, but she also knew that she could not resist the family with her own strength.

He thought that as long as his father and the others recognized Chen Zhilian's true face, they would not force him to marry.

Now I won’t marry Chen Zhilian, but there are still Li Zhilian and Wang Zhilian.

Now I am afraid that only by making a desperate move and giving up everything can I escape from this suffocating family.

She walked out of the study and went to the backyard, looking back at the place where she grew up.

Here are his closest family members and her most precious memories.

But now the memories of those relatives are so ironic.

"Xinyue." came the shout.

Qi Xinyue followed the sound and saw that it was Qi Yun, her eldest cousin.

"Brother." Qi Xinyue shouted and looked at Qi Yun walking towards her.

"What are your plans next?" Qi Yun asked.

"What plans can I have?" Qi Xinyue lowered his head.

"So are you going to accept your fate like this?" Qi Yun asked.

Qi Xinyue said: "I don't want to accept my fate, but what can I do?"

"Do you want to leave this home?" Qi Yun asked.

Qi Xinyue suddenly raised her head and looked at Qi Yun.

Qi Jun reached out and touched Qi Xinyue's head, just like she did when she was a child: "That little girl who loves to follow me, is squeamish and loves to cry has grown up."

"Brother." Qi Xinyue seemed to be recalling those carefree times when she was a child, and her eyes were red.

She and Qi Yun are cousins, and she has a younger brother who is three years younger than her.

Parents are more partial and focus more on raising their sons.

Compared to her relationship with her younger brother, Qi Xinyue sometimes prefers to follow Qi Yun.

Qi Yun is an only child, and only by following Qi Yun does Qi Xinyue feel like a cared for girl.

"Want to go abroad?" Qi Yun asked.

Qi Xinyue looked at Qi Yun with confusion in her eyes, wondering what he meant by this?

Qi Yun did not pretend to be mysterious, he said: "In our family, you should know what the personalities of grandpa, my dad, and your father are.

They feel that the only value of a girl is family marriage. "

"But are you willing?" Qi Yun asked.

"I'm not willing to give in." Qi Xinyue shook her head with red eyes, feeling aggrieved in her heart.

"Then I'll give you a chance. Our branch in the United States needs to send someone there. Are you willing to go?" Qi Yun asked.

"Me?" Qi Xinyue was a little in disbelief. Because girls are not allowed to interfere in the family business.

Her younger brother went to the company to study at the age of 15, and although she also studied finance and accounting at university, she didn't even go to her own company for a graduation internship.

The elders are stubborn in their feudal ideas and feel that girls cannot bear important responsibilities at all.

"I'll give you a year to prove to them that your value is more than marriage," Qi Yun said.

"I, I... I promise." Qi Xinyue's face seemed to be covered with a layer of dust, which disappeared instantly.

There was a strange look in her eyes.

Qi Yun looked at the sister in front of him who he had grown up with. Before today, he had never really looked directly into her heart.

I haven't paid attention to their family relationship, because he is a boy, and the family's resources are tilted toward him.

Even before this marriage was destroyed, he already knew what kind of virtue Chen Zhilian was.

However, his thoughts are similar to those of the elders in his family.

Anyway, it's just a business marriage. There is no need for feelings or responsibilities, as long as there are absolute benefits.

Even after marriage. You can also play your own game.

He had such thoughts because he directly ignored Qi Xinyue's thoughts.

Qi Xinyue is a person, she is not an object. Even though marriage is nothing to him, this does not mean that Qi Xinyue does not care.

They didn't give Qi Xinyue the right to choose, and they self-righteously planned her life.

And the life planned for her is to bring benefits to the family, not from her happiness.

He had never thought about this until he met that person and she expressed her inner thoughts for Qi Xinyue.

Although he is an outsider, he understands his sister better than his brother.

But because it was her, it made him re-examine what family is.

"Brother, thank you." Qi Xinyue said with red eyes.

Qi Yun said: "There is no need to say thank you to brother." After speaking, he was stunned for a moment and asked: "What did you promise Xu Yan to ask her to help you?"

Qi Xinyue's eyes widened, as if she was surprised how Qi Yun knew.

Qi Yun did not hide anything, he said directly: "She came to me, and she told me what a real family is."

Qi Xinyue said: "I didn't promise her anything. She said she just gave me a chance to choose by myself."

Qi Jun was stunned. Thinking of that beautiful girl, he suddenly understood why Xu Yan was able to capture Lin Xiao's heart.

It's hard not to be moved by a girl like that after getting to know her deeply.

He suddenly felt that he didn't meet her earlier than Lin Xiao.

Xu Yan didn't know this, she was officially going to work.

Before going out, Lin Xiao said he would see her off.

Xu Yan wanted to refuse, but after thinking about it, she agreed.

But when Xu Yan appeared downstairs in the company in a luxury car, Xu Yan still felt a little regretful.

After saying goodbye to Lin Xiao in the car, she rejected his offer to pick her up in the afternoon.

Before Lin Xiao turned black, Xu Yan said, "I'll pick you up when I get off work. Mr. Lin, please go to work and don't miss me too much."

Xu Yan got out of the car and walked into the building without looking back. The company where she and Lin Xiao worked was only two streets apart.

In the past, because Lin Xiao was the president of the company, he could come and leave whenever he wanted, and no one could control him.

Now, if he wanted to commute to get off work at the same time as Xu Yan, his schedule would have to become a nine-to-five job.

But this change is not worth mentioning to him. If he were not afraid that Xu Yan would not agree, he could change his office address to the same office building as Xu Yan.

Even though they are only separated by two streets, the gap is the difference between developed and developing.

Xu Yan got on the elevator. It was work time and there were many people in the elevator.

Xu Yan was squeezed into a corner. As the elevator rose, waves of people descended, and the elevator was finally empty.

In the end, only Xu Yan and another boy were left.

The two of them seemed to be on the same floor. The boy next to him looked at Xu Yan more and suddenly asked: "Do you go to work at Huake Advertising?"

Xu Yan turned her head to look at him and nodded.

The boy received Xu Yan's answer and said nothing more.

At this time, the elevator arrived. The elevator door opened and the boy went out. Xu Yan was still stunned.

"Aren't you coming out?" The boy looked back at Xu Yan, who had not come back to her senses.

Only then did Xu Yan react: "Oh, yes, I have to go out."

She got off the elevator with some embarrassment.

After the boy asked her question, he left without waiting for her, with Xu Yan following behind.

It wasn't until I saw the boy enter the company that I realized why he asked me that.

It turns out that the boy and she are in the same company.

The boy walked in. Xu Yan took a step slowly and heard other employees of the company calling him: "Hello, Mr. Liu."

"Yeah, okay." The boy responded with a smile.

"That's one of the bosses of our company." The front desk saw Xu Yan looking at the boy's back and explained to her.

Xu Yan turned around and looked at the front desk: "Hello, I'm here to try out."

"I know, Xu Yan, right?" the girl at the front desk asked with a smile.

Xu Yan nodded: "Yes."

"Come here, sign in here, fill it out, and I'll take you to your workstation." The front desk took out the sign-in form and information form and handed them to Xu Yan.

Xu Yan looked at it briefly, then filled out the information and handed it to the front desk.

The front desk took a look and found that there was no problem, and then took Xu Yan into the company.

The receptionist said as he walked: "There are few people in our company and they are all easy to get along with. Don't be nervous."

Xu Yan responded with a smile: "Yeah, okay."
