I was so absorbed in my thoughts that I didn't even notice there was someone sitting next to me.

"Yan Dong's attitude is really interesting. He previously vowed that he would wait for my sister forever, but now he goes to the Feng family to propose marriage. He's really fast." Yuan Tianye handed me a small dessert and mocked Yan Dong with a smile on his lips.

His palm covered the back of my hand and squeezed it gently.

This was meant to comfort me. He was very thoughtful and could keenly sense what I was thinking.

Zhang Tingyuan, who was sitting opposite, was stuffing a small dessert into his mouth, his words were a little unclear: "Of course he was fast, isn't it because my sister is in trouble, so he is in a hurry to draw a clear line with my sister. He is afraid that others will know that he once liked my sister. In this severe winter, I felt that he was not good enough at the beginning. Brother Xiaoye is still reliable."

Are you in a hurry to draw a line between you and me?

I had not expected this.

I couldn't help but look up at Zhang Tingyuan.

Yuan Tianye beside him snorted, "Of course I'm reliable. How can this old dog compare to me? I've long felt that he was no good. On the one hand, he confessed his love to my sister and tried to steal my girl, and on the other hand, he was ambiguous with Feng Wenting. I think he was prepared for both situations at the time. He has no heart at all. He is not choosing a beloved girl, but choosing a suitable daughter-in-law for the Yan family!"

My heart moved again.

Choose a suitable daughter-in-law for the Yan family.

"Oh, now I understand. Yan Dong thought Xuxu was better, so he pursued her. But now Xuxu ran into a little trouble, so he felt it was inappropriate and turned to look for Feng Wenting?" Wu Ling's face was full of disgust. "As expected of a man, he is really... so realistic and utilitarian!"

"Sister Wu, let me correct you again. I am not that kind of man! I really like you and have never retreated or hesitated!" Yuan Tianye retorted in a hurry.

"Yes, yes, our Xiaoye is still the best! She is more outgoing than Yandong, more loyal than Zhou Hanzhi, and much better than Zeng Zhi's grandson. That guy is not a good guy either..." Wu Ling said halfway and quickly changed the subject, looking at me and Yuan Tianye with a smile, "Xiaoye is really good to Xuxu. If Xuxu doesn't marry Xiaoye in the future, I think it's unacceptable."

"Dating is dating, but getting married is not that easy. Who says you have to marry him just because you're dating? Sister Wu, you can't kidnap my sister." Zhang Tingyuan was originally dissatisfied with Yan Dong's situation. After hearing what Wu Ling said, he retorted anxiously, "My mother and I must agree to get married."

Zhang Tingyuan and Yuan Tianye love to bicker with each other, and usually at this time, Yuan Tianye would start arguing with him.

But this time, Yuan Tianye rarely refuted him. Instead, he looked at me quietly and said softly, "Yeah, getting married is not that easy. I won't kidnap my sister. It doesn't matter whether my sister marries me or not. As long as my sister is happy, I will be satisfied."

"...Xiao Ye, I really have to call you brother, you are such a man!" Zhang Tingyuan was stunned for a moment, and immediately gave Yuan Tianye a thumbs up.

Wu Ling was also stunned, but seemed to have thought of something else. He lowered his head silently and placed his palms on his lower abdomen.

I met Ono's clean and serious peach blossom eyes and was speechless for a moment.

It seemed as if a warm current was flowing slowly through my heart, and I was warmed by him once again.

After going through so much, I feel more and more lucky.

I am really lucky to meet such a good person like Ono.

But I know in my heart that I am not worthy of such a good and pure person.

"Thank you, Xiaoye. Sister also hopes that you can find your own happiness." I finally retracted my gaze and said softly.

Although I didn't see Xiao Ye's eyes, I could feel that his gaze on my face gradually lost its focus. After a long time, I heard him smile brightly again and took out a tissue to wipe the corners of my mouth: "Sister's happiness is my greatest happiness."

I lowered my head and took the tissue to wipe the corners of my lips, but I sighed silently in my heart: Xiao Ye is really a good person, I hope he can meet someone he really likes sooner.

The diamond bracelet should be returned to him and handed over to the right person.

When I thought of that diamond bracelet, I inevitably thought of Zhou Hanzhi, and I couldn't help feeling irritated.

It doesn’t matter if Zhou Hanzhi used me as a sacrifice to the gods, and it doesn’t matter if he lied to me from beginning to end, but he must pay me back what he owes me!

But Zhou Hanzhi's phone was turned off until the next morning, and even Zeng Zhi didn't answer the phone, which made me even angrier.

I originally wanted Zhou Hanzhi to return the diamond bracelet to me within the same city, and I would send the watch to him within the same city, but given his attitude, I had no choice but to go there in person.

At noon, I appeared downstairs of Rongyu Capital.

"I'm sorry, Manager Meng, our President Zhou is not in the company right now." The receptionist stopped me.

I stopped and looked at her calmly: "His car is parked downstairs."

It was obvious that the guy at the front desk had just entered the workplace. He was not like the old hands in the workplace. His expression was very unnatural when he lied. And when he first came in, I clearly saw the black Maybach that Zhou Hanzhi often used parked downstairs.

“But, but you don’t have an appointment, so you can’t go up. How about you call Assistant Zeng?” The guy at the front desk couldn’t look me in the eye. His expression seemed even more unnatural, his ears were a little red, and he started to stumble when he spoke.

I frowned. If I could get through to Zeng Zhi on the phone, would I still have no appointment?

If this call could go through, I wouldn't even have to come to Rongyu in person!

I said seriously, "I do have something important to discuss with Mr. Zhou. How about you make a phone call for me and tell him that I must see Mr. Zhou today. Otherwise, I will wait for him here forever."

I'm here now, Zhou Hanzhi can't hide even if he wants to.

"Okay, then please wait a moment. I'll ask Special Assistant Zeng." The guy at the front desk had no objection to this suggestion. He grabbed the intercom phone and prepared to press the button.

But at this moment, a figure suddenly appeared beside him and bumped his elbow seemingly unintentionally, knocking the microphone out of his hand.

"Xiao Qi, can you lend me a paper cutter to open the package?" A little girl with a bun tilted her head and stretched out her hand to the guy at the front desk.

The guy at the front desk picked up the phone and frowned: "Why are you so clumsy today? Isn't the paper cutter right in front of you?"

"Hey, you didn't have lunch, did you? Do you want to try these new cookies I bought?" The girl with a bun-shaped haircut was very quick. She opened the express package, took out a bag of cookies from it and stuffed it into the boy at the front desk.

The young man frowned even more tightly: "What's wrong with you? Can't you see I'm busy with work? You..."

Before he could finish his words, the girl interrupted him in a low voice. Her voice was so low that I couldn't hear it clearly. I only saw the guy at the front desk quickly looked up at me with a hesitant look on his face.

The girl snatched the microphone from his hand and put it on the landline.
