nThe dressing room.

nShe had always been arranged in front of a dressing table with the top-notch makeup and hair accessories.

nHe Yaoxing looked at herself in the mirror. She was beautifully wrapped and noble. She was like a big star whom everyone looked at. A hint of sarcasm appeared in the corner of her eyes.

nHow many fans cheered for her? How many male stars in the industry treated her like a goddess? How many celebrities outside the industry looked up to her with respect.

nThose who wanted to chase after her could circle around the Pacific Ocean and queue back.

nShe could easily get anyone’s heart in this world and then heartlessly abandon it.

nHowever, He Yaobai’s heart was like a tiny star in the ocean to her.

nEven if she tried her best, she could not touch it at all.

nEvery time she looked forward to He Yaobai’s call the most, but his attitude was always business-like, as cold as a cellar freezer.

nHe Yaoxing’s self-confidence cracked with endless inferiority only when she was in front of him.

nHowever, she still pretended to smile brightly. “Brother Yaobai, I’ve been contacting Lu Qingzhuo, but that kid didn’t give me any face at all. He hasn’t answered my calls…”

nShe tried to get even the slightest bit of comfort from him by acting coquettishly.

nBecause he would only show a thread of solace when it came to work-related matters.

nOther than that, he did not care about her mood or life at all.

nOn the other side, at the He family in the capital city.

nHe Yaobai was sitting at a sandalwood desk in his office. He was dressed in a suit, and his height of 190 was very eye-catching even when he was sitting.

nHis clear eyes only had the indifference of a professional, and the only advice he gave her was about work. “If he doesn’t look for you, go look for him.”

nSolving problems was the way of the king instead of complaining. This had always been He Yaobai’s rule.

nTherefore, he was obviously unhappy with He Yaoxing’s complaining behavior.

nHe Yaoxing was a little disappointed, but she did not show it easily. She only said obediently, “Yes, I understand. I’ll go look for him now.”

n“You must remember that we don’t have much time left.” He Yaobai was warning her that the acquisition of the Lu family had to be put on the agenda as soon as possible, and could not be delayed any longer.

nThe He family had a large business. To be able to manage such a large business, they had to have a deep vision. Every move had to be done carefully, even as if they were treading on thin ice.

nThe He family’s hundred-year-old business could even surpass to the former head, the Lu family, in the past ten years. It was impossible for them to do so without resorting to underhanded means.

nHe Yaobai had an adviser who hid a mistress in a golden house. He gave him directions and tips on fortune telling.

nBefore this year, if he could not buy the Lu family, there would be a fundamental change in the situation next year. At that time, it would be impossible to buy them.

nSo the only chance was this year.

nAnd this year, one-third of the time had already passed.

nSo this year, he had to break the Lu family and take them for himself! By hook or by crook!

nHe Yaoxing nodded. It was as if she was born to be used by He Yaobai. She had the talent and the confidence that she would definitely be able to buy the Lu family.

nTo her, it was easy to catch a turtle in a jar. Therefore, she did not care about Lu Qingzhuo at all.

nHowever, He Yaoxing’s delicate eyelids drooped slightly. Her tone could not help but be filled with anticipation. “Brother Yaobai, as long as we acquire and devour the Lu family as soon as possible, will we be able to get married as soon as possible?”

nShe had waited for this day for far too long.

nWhen she was 14 years old, from the moment she first laid eyes on him, she had fallen completely in love with this man.

nHowever, she had always been very repressed with her feelings and could not reveal it to the public.
