One is a family specializing in jade, the other in carving; together they would be a perfect match.
Unfortunately, neither heir of the two families was attracted to the other.
Now things have escalated to the point of a complete falling out, if it weren't for An Ziyi's slight knowledge of jade gambling...
Having helped the Le family on several occasions before, the head of the Le family would not agree to Le Chenxi's decision to annul the engagement.
As I said before, you need to be more open-minded.
The Le family also had the idea of annexing the Xun family, but they had to see if Xun would agree.
Mo Wenhan thought of Le Chenxi and An Ziyi's names, and her eyes turned cold for a moment.
"Don't worry, everything will be alright with Xunjia."
Later, have Qiao Yuan inform those people that anyone who dares to make things difficult for Xun Jia is going against him.
Xunmi, of course, had no idea about the complicated thoughts in Mo Wenhan's mind. She needed to take a good bath, change into clean clothes, and preferably get some sleep.
"Brother Han, um... could I go to the bathroom to wash up first, and have a friend bring me some clothes while I'm at it?"
She initially thought the two wouldn't have a good conversation, which is why she didn't pay much attention at first.
But things are different now. Now that I'm sure it's my husband, my mindset has changed, and I'm more inclined to enjoy myself first.
Mo Wenhan then noticed that Xunmi's clothes were not only wrinkled but also somewhat torn.
It was probably caused by his roughness last night; I feel a little sorry for him right now.
"Is there anything wrong with your body?" He reached up and lifted Xunmi's clothes, checking himself over.
Seeing those deep purple marks, a look of regret flashed across his face. He had been too reckless last night.
But the thought that this person is now mine makes me feel good and satisfied.
Xunmi blushed; her husband's personality was just too direct.
At least in her past life she only talked about it, but now she's actually doing it, and she's finding it hard to keep up.
She quickly reached out and grabbed those large hands, her voice slightly unsteady: "Brother Han, I'm fine."
"I, I, I'll go soak in the bath for a while first, and leave the clothes outside the door."
After saying that, she pushed the person away and ran into the bathroom.
I turned on the tap, filled it with cold water, and slapped my face hard to bring the temperature down.
Only then did I have time to look at my face in the mirror, and it was still myself.
Its temperament may have been influenced by the previous world, with a touch of ancient charm.
Submerging myself completely in the bathtub filled with warm water, it truly lived up to its reputation as a presidential suite; the bathroom had everything one could need.
After pouring some essential oil, Xunmi began to organize the knowledge about jade in her mind.
Mo Wenhan stared at the closed door, the lingering touch of that cherished feeling still on her fingers.
He casually threw on a piece of clothing, picked up his phone from the bedside table, and called his assistant, Guan Xiao.
Ask him to send over two sets of clothes, and also to bring his most comfortable car, and order lunch.
Then he called Qiao Yuan again, gave him instructions, and then quietly looked at the bathroom door.
Qiao Yuan and Guan Xiao looked at each other in bewilderment: "What's going on, boss?"
"Stop guessing, just go and see for yourself." Guan Xiao picked up his car keys and headed out; he still needed to buy clothes.
Qiao Yuan quickly followed, since finding the jade shop on the way was convenient, wasn't it?
Xunmi also sent a text message to Lu Moqin, the original owner's best friend, asking her to tell her father that she was fine and had been at her house last night.
Then I'll arrange to meet her that evening and explain what happened today.
Lu Moqin was a good girl. In the original novel, she was implicated by An Ziyi because she helped Xunxun and met a tragic end.
The original owner had a request that wasn't exactly a wish: if possible, to let Lu Moqin live a peaceful and happy life.
For a girl like that, it's natural to seek help.
There was a knock on the door, followed by Mo Wenhan's voice: "I left the clothes outside the door."
Xunmi replied with an "okay" and continued soaking.
Mo Wenhan ignored Guan Xiao's look, which seemed to be directed at her like she was an alien, and turned to go next door to change her clothes.
While waiting for his clothes, he quickly took a shower in the bathroom next door.
When Xunmi came out after changing her clothes, Mo Wenhan and Guan Xiao had already started discussing today's work and schedule.
"Xunmi, this is Guan Xiao, my assistant. Just have him handle anything."
When Mo Wenhan saw Xunmi come out, she waved to her and said.
Guan Xiao's expression deepened for a second, then he relaxed: "Hello, Miss Xunmi, I am Guan Xiao."
"Hello, you can call me Qearl if you don't mind." I remember her family and friends all liked to call her by her English name.
Because her father said that she was the whitest and most beautiful pearl in the family.
As for Han Ge, she naturally prefers him to call her Xunmi, everyone else calls her in English, and her husband calls her in Chinese—it's unique and meaningful.
"Qearl," Guan Xiao replied, but a different thought lingered in his mind.
This Miss Xunmi is from the Xun family. The previous scandal was so big that I thought it would tarnish the Xun family's reputation.
Now it seems that the Le family is the one who got slapped in the face.
Why would they bother with the young master of the Le family, who is already their big boss? Even an idiot would know that.
Look at their boss's gentle eyes, and the faint curve of his lips.
And that restrained aura—it all speaks volumes about the importance they place on this Miss Xun.
Wow, this is going to turn S City upside down.
"It's getting late, Han-ge, would you like to have dinner together?"
Xunmi glanced at the sky outside; the sun was already shining brightly.
"I've made a reservation, let's go." Mo Wenhan stood up and naturally took Xunmi's hand.
Guan Xiao watched from behind, dumbfounded. So the boss wasn't sexually asexual after all.
From now on, he'll get angry with anyone who tells him that the boss has problems.
It's obvious that she has someone else in her heart, and she's remaining chaste for the sake of her beloved.
Sure enough, as soon as he returned, he took advantage of the other party completely. His boss is truly formidable.
The three of them appeared at the restaurant, attracting a lot of attention.
Mo Wenhan is incredibly famous in S City; he's a gambling tycoon and the undisputed king of the jade industry.
But who is that woman beside him, who is she with such outstanding looks and temperament? I've never heard of this big boss having a lover.
It can be seen that the other party not only held the woman's hand, but also carefully pulled out a chair for her.
Such treatment is hardly what lovers or friends should receive.
Could they be relatives? Or perhaps a secret lover?
In an instant, everyone at the table turned their attention to the three people.
Guan Xiao said he was under a lot of pressure. He only came out of curiosity to join in the fun, and now it's too late to regret it.
It was clearly too late, because someone had already excitedly called out his name and was obviously walking towards him.
"Mr. Guan?" A surprised, somewhat immature voice came from behind, followed by a young couple.
The man had the look of a young heartthrob, while the woman was a classic beauty, dressed in a long white dress with a big smile on her face.
