As the two were talking, they suddenly saw two figures walking from the other end of the road.

When that familiar brown plaid coat came into view, Nan Xian's pupils contracted, and she immediately froze on the spot.

That was... a birthday gift she gave to He Mingxiao before their divorce this year.

If that were all, it wouldn't have caused her such a strong reaction.

At that time, they had not been married for very long, and as they were both public figures, they inevitably had to endure a lot of public opinion troubles, especially since He Mingxiao had just become the richest man in China.

To outsiders, this only added a touch of mystery and romance to what already seemed like a calculated marriage.

Although the He Group has never stopped suppressing these baseless rumors and slanders, how can the mouths of the masses be silenced? It seems that they have a rebellious mentality, and the more they are told not to speak, the more they want to speak.

As a result, Nan Xian was labeled with many inexplicable tags—gold digger, scheming, and someone who climbed the social ladder by relying on her looks...

Perhaps Nan Xian hadn't yet had her edges smoothed out, and the fire of pride in her heart was still burning brightly. In order to prove to those gossipy people that her life was happier than they imagined, she specially posted a photo of He Mingxiao wearing the coat she had given him on his birthday.

That coat was a haute couture piece, and she had a lily of the valley diamond brooch pinned to the collar, which she had commissioned from a well-known domestic designer. It was one of a kind in the world, so there was no way she could mistake it for something else.

At this moment, Nan Xian felt a burning sensation on her cheeks. She was speechless and helpless at He Mingxiao's childish behavior.

She looked up and met He Mingxiao's gaze.

His eyes were bright, and a faint smile played on his lips. When he realized she had noticed him, he immediately straightened his back, and his gait became more earnest and affected.

Nan Xian: Animal World is right, males really are all show-offs... Yeah, it's unbearable to watch.

Her lips twitched slightly, she silently rolled her eyes, and then turned her face away, pretending to look at the scenery.

Lang Zhuo, walking next to He Mingxiao, took in their expressions and movements. He grinned, and fine lines appeared at the corners of his eyes.

Wow, they're all still young. I really miss my youth...

Seeing He Mingxiao's gloomy expression, Lang Zhuo suppressed his smile, patted him on the shoulder, and whispered, "Don't worry, I think Nan Xian isn't completely indifferent to you. Keep trying, I think you two can definitely make it!"

He Mingxiao's eyes lit up again, "Really?"

Lang Zhuo gave a thumbs up: "Trust me, it's absolutely true!"

In his heart: No, everyone can see that Nan Xian wishes she could cut a Mariana Trench in the ocean with you, but I have faith in you two, so, well, keep it up, young man!

He Mingxiao's slightly downcast mood was lifted by his confident demeanor. He smiled and said in a sincere and cheerful tone, "Thank you."

Lang Zhuo was taken aback when he saw the smile.

He had long heard of He Mingxiao, a young tycoon whose methods were even more powerful than his father's, but because their circles did not overlap, they had never had the opportunity to meet.

Before today, like most people, he thought He Mingxiao was a serious, rigid, and unapproachable person, but after just a few hours of interaction, he changed his mind.

Before the recording began, He Mingxiao sent his assistant to give each member of the production crew a hot drink and a bag of hand warmers.

Filming in winter is difficult. Sometimes, in order to shoot a short but suitable clip, people have to stand outdoors for a long time, and many people get frostbite.

So even though these little gifts aren't worth much money, they truly warm people's hearts.
