However, he didn’t return home, nor did he wander the world. She often saw him in financial news, as he had gone to Europe for research. Hanhai Group mainly operated in real estate, but residential properties were just one significant part. They also developed quite a lot of commercial real estate and ran shopping malls, supermarkets, cinemas, holiday resorts, and also had land investments overseas.

And Lu Weixi, in order to compensate for Liu Yiyi’s loss, had been working tirelessly this month. She started her internship at the company five years ago when she first started her postgraduate studies, accumulating a significant number of clients over the years. To save money and repay Xue Feifei as soon as possible, she took on all kinds of deals, so busy that she wished she could sleep at the company every day. Only when Xue Feifei called her to go shopping did she realize that a long time had passed.

Inside the Hanhai Shopping Center, Lu Weixi carried a large string of shopping bags in both hands, exhausted like a husky. Xue Feifei, wearing a mask and lensless black framed glasses, sporting high-top canvas shoes and carrying a designer bag, walked confidently ahead. After a while, she turned her head to see Lu Weixi, wilting like a frost-stricken eggplant, and almost took off her mask in exasperation. “Big sister, your physical condition is really poor. Back in the day, you used to walk ahead, full of vigor and vitality. Just a few years later, you’re completely drained. Did Qin Zhiyou sap all your energy? I even postponed an interview just to accompany you.”

Lu Weixi found a bench in the mall and before sitting down retorts, “Liar, you clearly just didn’t want to participate in Liu Yiyi’s show and were looking for a reason to decline.”

Xue Feifei leaned in with a teasing smile, “That’s not my fault, it’s Liu Yiyi’s own mess. She acted like a diva on a set and was unfortunately spotted by the station director. The director asked her to take a ‘sick leave’ for self-reflection. That’s basically sidelining her.” She winked at Lu Weixi and continued, “The funniest thing is that Qin Zhiyou was there with a group of political and economic elites for a visit. The little beauty he just started dating was suffering right before his eyes, but he could do nothing to help her. I wonder how he felt.”

Looking down, she sees Lu Weixi clenching her fists and massaging her sore legs, seemingly indifferent to anything about Qin Zhiyou. Xue Feifei sits down too, draping her arm over Lu Weixi’s shoulder, “But really, Qin Zhiyou is such a playboy. No matter how handsome or wealthy he is, it means nothing. Unlike his brother Qin Zhi…”

Before she could finish, she glanced at Lu Weixi, who was looking down, and realizing she had said something untoward, she laughed, patting her on the shoulder: “Anyway, you must be tired too, right? How about we get some food? There’s a good restaurant nearby, my treat.”

“Okay.” Lu Weixi didn’t stand on ceremony. The restaurant that Xue Feifei mentioned was on the second floor of the shopping center. There were large floor-to-ceiling windows in the private seats that kept the noise out while offering a view of the crowd coming and going in the central square of the first floor. After they ordered, Lu Weixi started to say, “The money you lent me last time, I’ll soon…”

Before she could finish the word “repay,” a commotion suddenly erupted in the square below. Then, the speakers in the mall started playing, signaling some kind of weekend event. The stage was quickly set up and the host came on stage, warming up the crowd as routine.. Then the main event; the host raised his voice and introduced, “Next, let’s welcome the president of Hanhai Company, Qin Zhiyou, to kick off the event!”
