By the time Duan Ye finished his work, it was already 11 p.m. He stretched his sore neck and went to bed.

Last night he slept holding the sweet and soft Luo Qingyuan, but today his arms felt empty, and Duan Ye really missed it.

But after keeping his eyes open for a while, Duan Ye quickly fell asleep.

Meanwhile, Luo Qingyuan was still in her office discussing a project with foreigners. The atmosphere was tense throughout, as the business center project involved hundreds of millions of RMB.

Luo Qingyuan has large factories in many cities across China. She wants all the products made by these factories, whether they are clothing, household items, electronic products, seafood, etc., to be sold to various countries.

Once the deal is finalized, she can take a break. It's a big deal; finalizing the details in two days is exhausting…

But she is Luo Qingyuan. As long as she controls the overall direction and signs the contract, she can leave the rest to her subordinates.

Around four o'clock in the afternoon, the first round finally ended.

As soon as Luo Qingyuan stepped out of the conference hall, she received a phone call she hadn't heard from in a very long time.

Cheng Suisui called out, "President Luo?"

Luo Qingyuan waved her hand, and Cheng Suisui immediately understood. She and Liu Yan took the people to the restaurant they had reserved for dinner.

Luo Qingyuan finally answered the phone.

"Brother, is something wrong?"

A emotionless voice came from the other end.

"At the end of next month, I will take your sister-in-law back to Beijing. I hope you will move back to the courtyard house."

Luo Qingyuan's heart sank immediately.

"Brother, I'm not a child anymore. Where I live is my own business."

Luo Shuyang: "Luo Qingyuan, I'm not discussing this with you. Whether you move or not is up to you."

Luo Qingyuan kept a somber face and didn't say a word.

Luo Shuyang softened his tone slightly.

"Mom went to visit you a while ago, right? I heard she left quickly, so she probably didn't find anything."

"But Luo Qingyuan, your childish tricks can fool Mom and Dad, but with so many spies in the capital, do you think I wouldn't know what you've done?"

"Although the Jiang family can't compare to the Luo family, they are still among the best in this world. You've beaten him up, vented your anger, and taken that Duan Ye with you. I hope you can get a divorce before I come back."

"You are my sister, I would never hurt you."

Luo Qingyuan remained calm. She had long known this day would come. Luo Shuyang was respected by both the legitimate and criminal worlds abroad, but she hadn't expected to be exposed so quickly.

"Brother, no one can tell me what to do when I make a decision."

Luo Shuyang wasn't annoyed. He smiled and said, "Qingyuan, you don't have much time. Don't force your brother to discipline you personally."

After saying that, Luo Shuyang hung up the phone and continued to lean back in his chair, basking in the sun.

His subordinate Daniel, dressed in a suit, poured him a cup of tea.

"Boss, the Jiang family is truly angry this time..."

Luo Shuyang didn't react. Daniel glanced at him and continued in a low voice:

"What the young lady did this time was not quite right."

Luo Shuyang: "Oh? Then what do you think she should do?"

Daniel: "The marriage alliance between the Luo and Jiang families is inevitable. Even if the eldest young lady dislikes Young Master Jiang, she should have discussed it with you. She shouldn't have laid a hand on him..."

"Young Miss's temper is truly fiery; she even dares to contradict you. She really needs to be disciplined... Ah!!!"

Daniel was shot in the leg, and the pain made him kneel down, covered in sweat, looking at Luo Shuyang with a terrified expression.

Luo Shuyang laughed: "Yeah, she even dares to talk back to me. Who is Jiang Jingchuan? What's wrong with beating him up?"

Luo Shuyang stopped laughing: "And you? Who do you think you are? How dare you question my own sister?!"

Daniel quickly begged for forgiveness, slapping himself repeatedly as he said, "Boss, I was too talkative!"

Luo Shuyang waved his hand: "Get lost."

Daniel was quickly carried away, and bodyguards soon came to clean up the bloodstains. In the blink of an eye, apart from a faint smell of blood in the air, it was as if nothing had happened.

Luo Shuyang's gaze fell on the table in front of him, on which were Duan Ye's photo and their marriage certificate.

Duan Ye was just an ordinary person who was dragged into this mess by Luo Qingyuan.

Luo Qingyuan protected Duan Ye very well, keeping his privacy completely confidential. If he hadn't personally sent someone to investigate, he probably wouldn't have known about this.

The Jiang family gave him this message.

He knew exactly what the Jiang family was thinking.

But... Luo Qingyuan shouldn't have fallen for Duan Ye.

Furthermore, the matter of Luo Qingyuan being drugged should also be resolved. However, the opponent is too powerful. Luo Qingyuan has been investigating but has not found anything. The opponent's plan is equally meticulous, as if they came prepared and were completely aiming to ruin Luo Qingyuan's plans.

This time when he returns to the capital, he will make sure that those old bastards who have been stirring up trouble behind his back pay the price.

Let everyone in the capital know what happens to anyone who dares to mess with the Luo family!

Otherwise, people would think that Luo Qingyuan has no one backing her up.

Just as Luo Shuyang was pondering, a Chinese woman came out of the house. She had black hair, wore a long dress, and was not made up, yet she was still very charming.

"Shuyang, your daughter is crying. Come and hug her and comfort her."

Luo Shuyang immediately stood up, a bright smile on his face: "Coming, wife."

"Honey, are we going back next month? How long will we stay?"

"Yes, don't you miss Qingyuan? We can stay a little longer before coming back. Besides, our baby hasn't met his aunt yet."
