The person who arrived was Su Yueyi.

The Su Yueyi who followed her father, Fang Zaitian, back to Hong Kong.

Seeing Su Yueyi, as if a fairy from a painting, like a gentle spring breeze, walking lightly towards him, Ye Tianfan was stunned.

Su Yueyi was dressed in a red cheongsam, with a large golden peony intricately embroidered with gold thread, appearing almost three-dimensional, blooming exceptionally bright.

Her face, exquisite as if carved from snow and jade, with eyes like the stars in the night sky, deep and clear, yet flickering with a gentle warmth, at first glance appeared cold and aloof, but on closer inspection, was full of infinite tenderness, stirring countless imaginings.

At this moment, as they met eyes, Ye Tianfan couldn't help but have his heart sway. Su Yueyi's gaze seemed to have the power to capture the soul, cold with a touch of warmth, beautiful yet noble, enchanting without losing classiness, cool without losing elegance.

As if all the world's feminine beauty was concentrated in Su Yueyi alone, truly a glance and a smile could bewitch, making other beauties pale in comparison, posing a challenge to any woman under heaven.

"It's been a long time, Brother Tianfan." Su Yueyi tilted her head and smiled. Facing Ye Tianfan, she restrained all her previous aura, as if reverting back to the adorable and innocent Su Yueyi of the past.

"Yes, it has been a long time." Ye Tianfan sighed.

"Sigh..." Ye Tianfan sighed in his heart. If it hadn't been for seeing Su Yueyi's earlier demeanor, that aura of a high-ranking strongwoman, it would have seemed that the Su Yueyi in front of him was still that adorable and innocent Su Yueyi of before, unchanged at all.

"Sit down!"

Once Su Yueyi and Ye Tianfan both took their seats, a waiter hurriedly poured them tea.

At this moment, Su Yueyi's eyes shimmered with a captivating light as she looked at Ye Tianfan, her red lips slightly parted, she spoke, "Brother Tianfan, it's been a long time, have you been well?"

Hearing Su Yueyi's words, Ye Tianfan set aside the thoughts in his heart. What did it matter if Su Yueyi had changed; people change, after all, and the place Su Yueyi held in his heart had already shifted, leaving only some friendship.

Then Ye Tianfan's lips curved slightly into a mischievous smile, "Of course, I've been doing great, eating delicious food and with several girlfriends. Couldn't be better."

Ye Tianfan's sudden comment left Su Yueyi a bit unprepared, a trace of sadness passed through her eyes. Although Su Yueyi had left Jiangzhou City and followed her father to Hong Kong, she had never forgotten Ye Tianfan for even a moment. She not only kept inquiring about Ye Tianfan's news but also, upon learning about Tianyu Group, brought all her father Fang Zaitian's assets in Hong Kong to fiercely confront Tianyu Group, smoothing out all matters for Ye Tianfan.

"Is that so, that's good..." Su Yueyi forced a smile to finish her sentence, repressing the tears welling up in her eyes, not letting them fall.

Yes, it was her choice to go to Hong Kong, to leave Ye Tianfan; it was all her choice, but why, knowing she had to accept all consequences, did her heart still hurt so much?

Ye Tianfan also saw the tears in Su Yueyi's eyes, and he knew that his earlier words had been a bit too much. Someone had come wholeheartedly to help him, yet he had said such things.

"Sigh..." Ye Tianfan sighed again in his heart; in the end, his heart was still soft.

Ye Tianfan picked up a clean tissue from the table and handed it to Su Yueyi.

After receiving it, Su Yueyi did not use it to wipe her tears but clutched it tightly in her hand, while the tears in her eyes flowed like an open faucet.

Seeing this, Ye Tianfan's heart softened even more, taking another tissue, he stood up and went beside Su Yueyi, reaching out to wipe her tears with the tissue.

This action of Ye Tianfan's caused Su Yueyi to completely break down, unable to suppress herself any longer, she hugged Ye Tianfan fiercely, burying her face in his chest, sobbing uncontrollably.

"I'm sorry, Brother Tianfan, I thought I could hold back, but I can't." Su Yueyi said through her tears, holding onto Ye Tianfan even more tightly.

Ye Tianfan could only gently stroke Su Yueyi's head in a gesture of comfort.

"I'm sorry, Brother Tianfan."

Ye Tianfan understood why Su Yueyi kept apologizing, but so what? The path one chooses, one must persist on, even if crawling on knees, one must crawl through.

"It's okay, I'm not blaming you," Ye Tianfan said softly, stroking Su Yueyi's head.

Upon hearing Ye Tianfan's comforting words, Su Yueyi's heart trembled; her sobbing not only did not lessen, but grew even louder. She realized that it was completely impossible between her and Ye Tianfan now.

That seemingly indifferent comfort was enough to shatter her already anxious heart.

Don't ask how Su Yueyi could infer so much from just one comforting remark from Ye Tianfan; a woman's sixth sense, especially a powerful woman's like herself, who had taken over all of Fang Zaitian's assets and managed them so effectively.

After a while, having cried enough, Su Yueyi reluctantly sat up from Ye Tianfan's embrace.

"Sorry to have embarrassed you, Brother Tianfan." Although she had calmed down a lot inside, Su Yueyi was still quite heartbroken.

"No problem, my clothes are cheap anyway, cry all you want." Ye Tianfan shrugged, jokingly.

"But I never expected that you were the mysterious force from before. It seems you're doing quite well in Hong Kong!" Ye Tianfan wisely changed the subject, avoiding more awkward silence.

"After my father and I returned to Hong Kong, he handed over all his assets to me to manage. I've been learning how to manage them. Once things got on track, I came back to Jiangzhou, wanting to find you, but then unexpectedly, a Tianyu Group popped up." Su Yueyi continued to speak without pause, as if venting something.

Ye Tianfan did not interrupt her, letting Su Yueyi continue.

"And I never expected so many things to happen in Jiangzhou City after I returned to Hong Kong. Actually, I was aware of these things from Hong Kong, but back then, I had no way to come to Jiangzhou, no way to accompany you right away; I was busy learning how to manage.

As soon as I learned, I came, and ran into Tianyu Group, just in time to show you how I've grown."

"Great!" Ye Tianfan sincerely remarked.

After all, when Su Yueyi left, she wasn't nearly as strong as she is now.

Back at the Long Group, she had such a minor position.

In Hong Kong, she managed all of Fang Zaitian's assets. Not to mention anything else, when she took out the thirty billion from her collaboration with the Qin Group, she still effortlessly defeated Tianyu Group, enough to prove her growth.
