The clouds and mists have dispersed, and everyone knows that I love you.

Chapter 674 We Are Not Suitable

The man wanted to say something, but his keen perception made him sense that Huo Yiyan, whom he had not seen for a long time, was coming towards them.

Chu Yu didn't take it seriously and turned a blind eye as usual, helping Shi Rong to tidy up the bangs on his forehead.

"Baby~slow down."

Shi Rong chuckled.

"it is good."

Huo Yiyan came to the front of the crowd and heard with her own ears the sweet and weird way Chu Yu addressed Shi Rong.

once Upon a time.

He also called her "dear" in such a gentle tone, but unfortunately, she never responded once.

Since when did Chu Yu's attention completely shift to Shi Rong?

Huo Yiyan didn't intend to think deeply about this because she couldn't figure it out.

"Shi Rong, I have something to talk to you about."

Shi Rong knew very well that Huo Yiyan must have something important to tell him since she came here in person, so it was not surprising that he discussed it with her.

"You said."

Seeing that she had no intention of sending Chu Zhao away, Huo Yiyan hesitated to speak.

Shi Rong smiled generously.

"Yi Yan, Brother Chu Yu is not an outsider either. Just like Miao Man and the others, he has been with me for five months. He knows everything I know.

If you have something to say, just say it. Or are you bothered by the fact that he's your ex-boyfriend and can't bring yourself to say it?"

When the word "ex-boyfriend" was mentioned, Huo Yiyan's beautiful face inexplicably turned red.

"No."

Shi Rong nodded.

"Then tell me. Of course, if you came to me to see Max, I can't help you for the time being because he has something going on recently and can't get away."

Huo Yiyan was stunned for a moment when she heard this.

"What's going on? Is it serious?"

Shi Rong laughed again.

"It's not serious. Any problem that I can help him solve is not serious."

Huo Yiyan secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"I came here to apologize to you."

The two women stood side by side, looking at each other, their eyes looking at each other with complicated feelings.

"Between you and me, there's no need for apologies to continue the friendship we've known for years.

You know me very well. In my heart, apologies are useless for things that cannot be overcome, and things that can be overcome will be turned over automatically."

Shi Rong turned her head and walked forward with graceful steps. As soon as her right hand was in the air, Chu Yu consciously raised her left arm to support it.

"Yi Yan, everyone should have their own sense of propriety when doing things. I know the reason why you plotted against Huo Jiuzhou this time, and he can see every detail.

The reason he chose to keep it a secret for you is because he always has a place for you, his second sister, in his heart. In fact, you don't have to be so hostile to Huo Jiuzhou.

If I were you, I would adapt to the situation. Only by clinging firmly to this towering tree can we have a chance of turning the tide.

In the Huo family, if Huo Jiuzhou is the sky, you can only be humble to the dust. This is not compromise, but survival.

Only by living can there be a way out. I think you understand this principle better than me."

As usual, Huo Yiyan was full of admiration for Shi Rong's foresight.

"I see. Thank you."

Shi Rong was speechless.

"Don't thank me, I'm afraid if you thank me, I wonder if you have something else to ask of me."

Huo Yiyan smiled sweetly.

"how do you know?"

Tsk!

Shi Rong glared at him, looking unhappy.

"Huo Yiyan, how come you have so many things to do in one day?"

The woman curled her lips helplessly.

"Then I don't want to either. I don't care. You have to help me anyway."

"what?"

Shi Rong was so angry that he almost laughed.

"Huo Yiyan, what if I sold it to you?"

"Hahahaha!"

Huo Yiyan was amused by Shi Rong's cute look of gritting his teeth.

"Hey, just help me~"

Shi Rong waved his hand in an expression of boredom.

"Talk, talk, talk, I'm so annoyed..."

"Ha ha!"

Huo Yiyan laughed again and then got back to the topic.

"It's about Xinsheng Real Estate. The old man seems to have some complaints about my abilities recently.

He deliberately sold a piece of land built around the Huo Group two years ago to Xinsheng at a high price by exerting pressure.

He asked me to find a way to buy it back at a low price. I can't think of any other reason besides that he was testing my personal ability."

Shi Rong raised her eyebrows but did not comment.

"Okay, Huo Yiyan, you've become smarter. But actually, it's understandable that he did this. After all, in his eyes, you are someone who has made a big mistake.

Huo Yan's suspicion is just as great as Huo Jiuzhou's.

Before he completely eliminates his suspicion of you, whatever action he takes is a normal test."

After a pause, Shi Rong continued.

“Originally, this matter was not that difficult to resolve.

I think the reason why Huo Yan was able to sell the land at a high price in the beginning was not only because he exerted pressure, but also because the land came from the Huo family.

As the thirteenth chapter of the Annotated Commentary on the Doctrine of the Mean says well, "Treat others as they would have you treat them as they would treat you."

Since he was able to use this to sell the land, why can't you follow his example and buy it back?"

Yup!

Huo Yiyan reacted suddenly.

As long as she gives the order to expand and fill all the other land around the Huo Group.

So, no matter how powerful Xinsheng Real Estate is, it can't hold on to the properties belonging to the Huo family, right?

If he doesn't want to suffer heavy losses in the end, the only way is to sell at a discount.

"Alright, Ying Shirong! With your intelligence, it would be a shame if you don't become someone's military advisor!

How about this, you can give up your position, retire to the mountains, and work with me. I will make money to support you.

This way, you can satisfy your desire to spend your days leisurely while also obtaining the freedom you've always longed for. How about that? "

After hearing this, Shi Rong's eyelids fluttered.

"No matter what, sister, please let me go. We are not suitable for each other."

"Hahahaha!"

As soon as these words were spoken, not only Huo Yiyan laughed, but even Chu Yu, who had been listening quietly the whole time, laughed as well.

Shi Rong was speechless again. What's so funny about this? It's really...

"Is there anything else?"

Huo Yiyan shook her head.

"Gone."

Shi Rong nodded.

"Then leave. I want to be alone for a while."

Huo Yiyan understood.

"No problem~ My Queen, have fun. I'm in peace."

The woman said this solemnly, and performed the ancient maid's etiquette towards Shi Rong.

???

Shi Rong was stunned.

"Who are you calling 'Niangniang'? Am I that old? Why don't you call me Queen Mother?"

Tsk!

Huo Yiyan was so angry that she raised her hand and slapped her.

Chu Yu was so beaten that his brows were furrowed. He rubbed the slightly red backs of Shi Rong's fingers with concern.

"Isn't that a generation difference?"

Shi Rong was completely speechless.

"You're still yelling when you know it? It's nothing..."

"Hahaha!"

Huo Yiyan covered her mouth and giggled.

Then he turned around and left in a hurry.

It is not difficult to see that she was following Shi Rong's advice and offering her some good ideas, and then she went back to her room to revise the proposal.

"Ever since you met, she's always been like this, always asking you for strategy advice?"

Chu Yu rubbed Shi Rong's long fingers and did not let go. He even pulled the woman's small hand and placed it on his broad shoulders.

Shi Rong continued to nod.

"more or less."

Chu Yu's sexy and seductive thin lips wrapped around her small mouth with bright eyes and white teeth, and his flexible tongue went straight in, kissing her with a smacking sound.
