Yun Qing smiled. “I can’t tonight. I have a date with Meng Hong.”

As she spoke, Yun Qing stood up and walked out with her bag.

“You and Meng Hong?! Are you really interested in that little puppy?” Gu Zhi was surprised. “Tell me, how far have you gotten with Meng Hong?”

Yun Qing was helpless. “What are you thinking about? Meng Hong just wanted to thank me and treat me to a meal. Besides, Yun Qi will be there too.”

Even so, Gu Zhi could not help but gossip on. “Yun Qing, don’t think that men are that simple. Maybe your brother is just a foil.”

“Actually, Meng Hong wants you for himself.”

Faced with Gu Zhi’s suspicion, Yun Qing thought of Meng Hong’s innocent face.

“He won’t,” Yun Qing replied. “Besides, I’m only treating him as a younger brother. It’s not like you don’t know that I don’t like brother-sister relationships.”

“By the way, Yun Qing, there’s something else I want to tell you.”

Yun Qing was about to say goodbye to Gu Zhi, when Gu Zhi suddenly stopped her.

“What is it?”

“Do you know? Fang Ya is coming back.”

Hearing this, Yun Qing was stunned.

Fang Ya was the female president of the Fang Corporation in the neighboring city. She was an influential figure there.

She was young, yet she could shoulder such a heavy responsibility. Moreover, under her leadership, the Fang Corporation was only gaining more and more power.

Many people respected such a strong woman.

Even Yun Qing admired Fang Ya too.

However, what most people didn’t know was that Fang Ya had liked Ye Zhi for many years.

“Fang Ya isn’t here for Ye Zhi, right?”

Yun Qing couldn’t help but be curious about Fang Ya’s motive for coming.

“Ahem, hmm… who says she isn’t?” Ye Zhi said lightly.

The answer was self-evident.

It was all for Ye Zhi!

Great, someone finally took Ye Zhi in!

Thinking of Ye Zhi’s clingy look, Yun Qing couldn’t wait for Fang Ya to come quickly.

“But you have to be careful. Ye Zhi is always clingy to you and speaks some ambiguous words. Maybe Fang Ya will come and deal with you.”

The joke was a joke, but Gu Zhi was still a little worried and advised.

“Don’t worry, I know.”

Yun Qing had long been used to this kind of life when she was a constant target.

Those women who liked Huo Chuan were always targeting her, and she had endured it.

Although Fang Ya was not an easy person to deal with, Yun Qing was still not afraid.

If it was in the past, she might have had some scruples.

However, after experiencing a failed marriage, Yun Qing had completely changed.

She was no longer the Yun Qing she used to be.

“Alright, I’ll stop talking now. I’m going on a date with some fresh meat.”

Yun Qing walked to the car, opened the door, hung up the phone, and drove away.

The place where Meng Hong treated Yun Qing and Yun Qi to a meal was a five-star revolving restaurant high in the sky.

The large glass windows on all four sides allowed customers to have a panoramic view of the night scene of the entire city.

Meng Hong was waiting for Yun Qing in the parking lot. As soon as Yun Qing arrived, she saw Meng Hong wearing sunglasses and a cap.

“It’s not easy to have dinner with a big star. I can’t even see your face.”

Yun Qing could not help but tease him.

Meng Hong smiled embarrassedly and said, “I’m… I’m afraid that I’ll be constantly photographed and get you caught up.”

He was not worried that those unscrupulous media would start spreading rumors. What he was worried about was Yun Qing’s reputation.

Meng Hong’s thoughtfulness made Yun Qing feel a surge of warmth in her heart.

“It’s alright. Those people can’t hurt me.”

Yun Qing no longer cared about these things.

She had to become stronger.

When Yun Qing and Meng Hong walked into the restaurant, Huo Chuan and Li Yi happened to arrive at the restaurant as well.

That day, he had an appointment with a client to discuss business here. However, he did not expect to see a familiar figure at the entrance of the restaurant.

‘Yun Qing?’

Huo Chuan had not expected to see her here.

However, when he saw Meng Hong beside her, all his joy disappeared.

Even though Meng Hong was fully armored, he still recognized him at a glance.

When he saw the two of them chatting and laughing, Huo Chuan’s face turned livid.

Li Yi naturally saw it too. He did not dare to raise his eyes to look at Huo Chuan as he had a bad feeling in his heart.

Before Li Yi could stop him, Huo Chuan had already strode forward and grabbed Yun Qing’s hand.

Yun Qing was chatting with Meng Hong about the upcoming collaboration and was in a good mood. However, she did not expect her wrist to be grabbed.

She turned her head and saw Huo Chuan’s gloomy face.
