Yu Qian sat at the table openly. His posture was tall, and he had a smile on his face.

Hearing Yu Qian’s words, Xia Wanyuan did not have any other reaction. She continued to chew on the small piece of steak quietly. She half lowered her head, her eyes picturesque. In this foreign restaurant, she formed a landscape painting.

Finally, after chewing and swallowing the steak, Xia Wanyuan looked up. “Other than that?”

Yu Qian did not hide anything. “To do business and expand the Continent O market.”

Xia Wanyuan did not ask further and ate quietly. Yu Qian watched her eat for a while and suddenly felt that the Western food in front of him should be quite delicious.

He picked up his knife and fork and cut off a small piece. He frowned slightly and said, “Why didn’t CEO Jun come with you? Isn’t your relationship very good?”

Xia Wanyuan’s hand paused. “You care about quite a lot of things.”

The corners of Yu Qian’s lips curled up slightly. “Professor Xia, have you never thought that Jun Shiling is hiding something from you too? Do you know what he’s doing now?”

“So what if he hid it from me? As long as he doesn’t say anything, I won’t ask.” Xia Wanyuan’s expression was calm.

Yu Qian carefully looked at Xia Wanyuan’s expression and could not see anything strange on her face. He raised his eyebrows slightly. “You really trust him.”

Xia Wanyuan did not speak further, nor did Yu Qian. At the dining table, both sides were silent.

Only Xia Yu, who was sitting in the middle, was stunned. He did not understand and was even suppressed by their auras.

After dinner, Yu Qian, Xia Wanyuan, and the rest went out together.

Just like his person, Yu Qian looked extremely gentlemanly. He politely opened the door for Xia Wanyuan and sent them to the car before turning to leave.

In the star-rated restaurant opposite the restaurant, a camera recorded this scene.

“Women from small families are ill-bred.” Madam York saved the photo. “She ate with another man privately. My nephew still has to marry such a woman at home.”

Manda elegantly stirred the coffee in her cup. “This Xia Wanyuan does have a good face. Men like this.”

“China’s economy has been developing better and better over the years.” Madam York suddenly sighed. “Our Duke suddenly began to pay attention to China’s market this year.”

“Indeed,” Manda echoed. “The last time I went to Beijing, it was a little beyond my imagination. The China I remember should be very backward. Camellia Group is already very dependent on the Chinese market.”

“But it’s difficult to enter the Chinese market.” Lady York looked unhappy.

China was not like other countries, and they were stricter in controlling all kinds of capital.

China was a piece of fat meat that everyone in the world coveted, but no one overseas had the ability to bite it down.

This was also why Madam York hated Xia Wanyuan so much.

The Jun Corporation played an important role in China. Being connected to the Jun Corporation meant that they had obtained tickets to the Chinese market. The largest consumer market in the world had countless business potential.

Not only did Madam York find Li Qingxue to marry Jun Shiling, but she also found many juniors with good looks in the York family.

Unexpectedly, halfway through her wishful thinking, it was completely disrupted by this Xia Wanyuan.

“Are you still worried about your duke?” Manda saw Lady York’s frown and came to comfort her. “Isn’t it just marriage? It’s just for her appearance. How long can it be? As long as you’re willing to work hard, there’s no one who can’t be separated.”

Lady York looked quietly at the photo in her hand and nodded.

She was Jun Shiling’s biological grandaunt. A marriage that she had not agreed to could not be counted.

Tomorrow was the design competition. The capital of France was a famous art capital. Any small shop here had a strong artistic aura.

The winter in France was much colder than in China. Xia Wanyuan was wearing a thick down jacket and furry gloves. She strolled house by house, looking for small inspirations in her life.

In front of an exquisite dress, Xia Yu suddenly stopped.

This was a very simple black and white dress. It was neat and capable, just like Jiang Yun. It had exquisite edges and corners.

Xia Yu’s ears turned red as he imagined Jiang Yun wearing this dress.

“Sister, I want to buy this dress.” Xia Yu suddenly stopped Xia Wanyuan.

ia Wanyuan turned around and glanced at the exquisite dress, then at the blushing Xia Yu. The corners of her lips curled up slightly. “You’ve grown up.”

Xia Yu was a little embarrassed. “Sister ~”

“Buy it.” Seeing that Xia Yu was shy, Xia Wanyuan did not say anything else.

In the end, Xia Yu used his salary card to buy the clothes.

After walking around outside, when she returned to the hotel, she bumped into Madam York, who had returned from dinner.

Xia Wanyuan glanced at her and looked away, walking straight forward.

“Stop.” Lady York stopped her with an unhappy expression. “Is this how you treat your elders?”

“How can a person who traveled abroad for wealth and glory and doesn’t even know when her parents died be worthy of being an elder?” Xia Wanyuan did not like this Madam York who used a tone and spoke bluntly.

“You!” Madam York was so angry that her hands trembled. I shouldn’t have stopped this Xia Wanyuan. Every time I speak to this woman, I anger myself to death! 

The elevator arrived. Xia Wanyuan and Xia Yu quickly disappeared into the elevator. Mrs. York was unwilling to take the same elevator as them.

However, the elevator was too slow. By the time the next flight went upstairs, ten minutes had passed. Lady York was even angrier.

After a long afternoon, it was already ten at night when she returned to the hotel. Xia Wanyuan took a comfortable bath and took a look at her phone. Jun Shiling had left a message for her three hours ago, saying that he had something to do in the next eight hours and wanted her to sleep early.

Thinking of what Yu Qian had said in the afternoon, Xia Wanyuan frowned slightly.

She really did not understand what Jun Shiling had been doing these days.

However, the tacit understanding they had formed over a long time prevented her from suspecting Jun Shiling. If Jun Shiling did not say it, she would not ask. She believed that Jun Shiling had his own principles.

After washing up, she lay on the warm blanket and looked at the falling snow outside the window. She slowly fell asleep.

Southwest base.

The people from the other regions finally understood the seriousness of the problem from various channels. Everyone gathered and had a meeting.

Among the dozens of people, everyone was guarded against each other they were all people who had experienced the whirlpool of power. It was difficult to tell if what they said was true or false. When they received missions, they also avoided them and made things difficult.

Even with Jun Shiling’s iron-blooded methods, it still took him a long time to open up all the connections and make them obediently put down their differences for the time being and do as he asked.

“Meeting dismissed.” Finally, they heard this from Jun Shiling. Everyone was relieved and quickly packed their things and walked out.

In the huge meeting room, only Jun Shiling was left sitting on the high platform.

Everyone else had left, but Jun Shiling could not leave. He reorganized the entire Southwest Army. This was a huge matter that could cause the entire machine to be paralyzed with just a small part.

Countless possibilities needed to be calculated in Jun Shiling’s mind one by one, and he had to come up with the most suitable plan. He also had to consider the compatibility of everyone’s personality and environment.

Jun Shiling sat in front of the computer and quickly typed on the keyboard.

When Lin Wei entered with the tea, she saw Jun Shiling typing attentively in a suit. The light on the platform shone on his cold side profile. Just by sitting there, he had the power to stabilize the entire southwest.

“Officer, have some tea.” Lin Wei gently walked over and placed the teacup aside.

“Mm,” Jun Shiling replied without stopping what he was doing.

Lin Wei glanced at him and walked out quietly without saying anything else.

Another four hours had passed since the meeting ended. It was already late at night in China. This base was in the dense forest, and there were the cries of unknown birds at night.

Finally, he organized the meeting report into a book. Jun Shiling closed the computer and rubbed his temples. His tired eyes were relieved.

“Officer, I know some massage techniques. Let me massage you.” Lin Wei had been waiting outside with food. Seeing Jun Shiling so tired, she could not bear it.

“No need.” Jun Shiling waved his hand and looked at his phone. It was one in the morning, but it should be early in the morning in France.

He called Xia Wanyuan and it was quickly picked up.

“Are you awake?” Jun Shiling hid the fatigue in his voice, not letting Xia Wanyuan hear it.

“I just woke up. What are you doing?” The weather in France was very good today. In this hotel facing the sea, she could see large white clouds through the huge French windows.

“I’m getting ready to sleep. Are you going to the competition today?”

“Mm.” The blanket was very warm. Xia Wanyuan nestled in it and did not want to think about it. “Then sleep quickly. It’s so late in China.”

“Okay, good night.” Jun Shiling’s voice was gentle. “Let me know after the competition. I’ll call you when I’m done.”

“Mm.” Xia Wanyuan’s eyes curved into crescents. “Goodnight, CEO Jun.”

After hanging up the phone with Xia Wanyuan, Jun Shiling gestured for Lin Wei to bring the food over.

“Officer, this meal is a little cold. I’ll heat it up again.”

“No need. Bring it over.” They had to continue deploying in five hours. There was no time to wait. Jun Shiling took the half-cold food and quickly finished the food on the plate.

“I’ll gather everyone for a meeting in five hours,” Jun Shiling said as he stood up and walked to the lounge.

Looking at the cold Jun Shiling, Lin Wei was a little curious. What kind of person was his wife? 

Over the past two days, Jun Shiling had given her the feeling that he was ruthless, intelligent, and brave. It was as if wherever he was, he was the anchor.

However, the Jun Shiling she saw today was completely different from his image in front of everyone. He spoke softly, as if he was afraid of disturbing the person opposite him. He still used a coaxing tone.

What kind of woman could make him like this?
