Xia Chao said with a stern face, "You and Song Mo just need to get married. You're past the age of naivety. Don't think too highly of things when it comes to relationships. You can have fun with men before and after marriage, but not in such a high-profile way."

"I'm not just playing around with Bai Zhi. I like him, and I want to marry him."

"Xia Fengguang!" He couldn't calm down anymore. Xia Chao slammed his fist on the table and stood up, clearly furious. "Who is Bai Zhi? Who are you? He's not good enough for you!"

"I don't care who he is, as long as I like him!"

"You! Your marriage to Song Mo was arranged by your mother back then. Now you plan to break off the engagement with him. How can you face your mother?" Here we go again. Whenever Xia Chao can't win an argument, he likes to bring up his mother, whose glory has faded.

Feng Guang retorted, "That's because my mother didn't know Song Mo would turn out badly. You clearly know Song Mo isn't a good man, yet you still want me to marry him. How can you face my mother?!"

Song Mo's mother and Feng Guang's mother were good friends, so when Feng Guang was born, the two families arranged a marriage. However, when Feng Guang was young, her mother passed away due to illness. This beautiful woman did not have the chance to see Song Mo grow into a man who could not give his daughter happiness.

Xia Chaoqi's lips trembled, and it took her a long time to utter a complete sentence, "You really don't want to marry Song Mo?"

"yes."

"Alright." Xia Chao looked at his daughter's determined face and said in a deep voice, "As long as you can guarantee that you will dissolve the engagement in a way that will not affect the Xia family's livelihood, I will not interfere with your marriage. As long as... I mean, you take the initiative to dissolve the engagement. If the Xia family is put in a position of violating trust because of this, I have several lists of business heirs here. You understand what I mean."

"Then you can save yourself the trouble of finding me a husband, because I'm sure I'll succeed." After saying this confidently, Fengguang turned around and went upstairs.

The butler came over and handed Xia Chao a cup of tea. "Master, Miss has grown up."

"Hmph, now that his wings have hardened, he knows how to fly on his own." Xia Chao took a sip of tea to calm down a bit, but still ordered, "Have someone thoroughly investigate that Bai Zhi. I want to see what he's capable of that makes my proud daughter fall for him."

"yes."

As soon as Feng Guang entered the room, she collapsed onto the soft bed. She closed her eyes and rested for a while, then picked up her phone from the bedside table, found a number, and sent a text message: "I'm already in bed, getting ready to sleep. You should get some rest too."

Several minutes later, a short message came back from the other end: Good night.

Feng Guang smiled and hugged her phone. She knew it; even if it were a stone, she could warm it up.

This morning was no ordinary day either. Song Mo pulled Qiu Niannian out of the car, and Qiu Niannian's expression perfectly illustrated what it meant to be unwilling. Song Mo was even more displeased by this. The employees of Zha Nan were already used to seeing the two of them appear in this way.

"Qiu Niannian, don't forget, you are my slave now. As a slave, you should feel honored that your master brought you out."

Qiu Niannian tried to shake off his hand, but couldn't. "I'll really thank you if you don't threaten my boss at the shop where I work to fire me."

"Being my slave, my monthly salary is higher than what you earn in a year of working. What are you dissatisfied with?"

"At least they don't call me a slave all the time, you idiot chauvinist pig."

Song Mo was furious, "Qiu Niannian!"

"President." Bai Zhi suddenly appeared, his thin glasses concealing the faint emotion in his eyes. He reminded him in a humble yet assertive manner, "The meeting will begin in ten minutes."

"Hmph!" Song Mo released Qiu Niannian's hand, and before leaving, he turned back to give Qiu Niannian a warning look, "After I leave the conference room, you'd better see that you have cleaned my office."

Bai Zhi asked, "Are you alright?"

"I'm fine... Mr. Bai, thank you."

"It's nothing. In the future, try not to have direct conflicts with the president."

"Hmm... I'll listen to you." Qiu Niannian had always trusted and liked this man who had once saved her from a group of delinquents.

Bai Zhiyan finished speaking. Since the meeting still needed his presence, he nodded slightly and turned to follow Song Mo.

Bai Zhi was a handsome, abstinent man; even his back view was so elegant. Qiu Niannian couldn't help but swoon for a moment. If only Song Mo, this Tyrannosaurus Rex, were even a little bit as good as Bai Zhi... Realizing what she was thinking, she shook her head fiercely. Song Mo was a chauvinistic pig; he would never become better!

"Miss..."

A pleasant voice came from beside her. Qiu Niannian turned around and saw a beautiful woman smiling at her. She had a slender and graceful figure, and her face was very beautiful. Her watery eyes were slightly rippling with laughter, and her lips were also carrying an elegant smile.

It turns out that the perfect woman in my ideal really exists, and she's still looking at me and smiling... Qiu Niannian blushed unconsciously.
