Chapter 706: Adults Want Everything

“Is that so?” Xia Xibei looked askance at him.
“Just treating me like a sister?”

Qiao Yanjue hesitated for a moment before finally shaking his head in resignation.
“Okay, I admit it, I never really treated you like a sister from the beginning!”

If he had really treated her like a sister and then laid hands on her, he would have felt worse than a beast.

“However, when I bought SY at that time, besides wanting to take care of you, it was also because I thought there was money in this industry.” Qiao Yanjue spoke seriously about this matter.

Although he liked Xia Xibei, he wasn’t someone who only focused on romance, disregarding other aspects.

After saying that, he looked at Xia Xibei a little worriedly, afraid that she would be upset by his words.

However, Xia Xibei was quite happy.
“What are you looking at me for? I think you’re doing a good job!”

Her greatest fear was to give up everything for love.

To her, that wasn’t deep love, it was foolishness.
It was too scary to

abandon everything for feelings.

Even if she and Qiao Yanjue ended up together, she wouldn’t give up her career.

Besides, when pragmatism met romance, who said it was necessary to choose only one?

Only children made choices; adults wanted it all.

If Qiao Yanjue gave up everything for her, she wouldn’t feel happy.
If he regretted it later and said that she was the one who ruined him, that would not be right.

Besides, who said that success and love were in conflict? Without success, how could one be qualified to possess love?

And Xia Xibei never put herself in a dilemma.

“But why didn’t you tell me that before?” Xia Xibei asked curiously.

Moreover, Qiao Yanjue never appeared at the company before, and she didn’t even know that the company had changed owners.

“I didn’t want you to think that I was forcing you to be grateful,” Qiao Yanjue explained seriously.

If Xia Xibei knew that he had become her boss, what kind of mood would she be in?

Moreover, Qiao Yanjue didn’t feel that he needed to move Xia Xibei with such things.

He just wanted to make her path more smooth.

At those words, an inexplicable emotion welled up in Xia Xibei’s heart.

Who wouldn’t be happy to have someone watching over them like this?

Thinking of this, she jumped into Qiao Yanjue’s arms again and took the initiative to give him a kiss.

By the time the two of them separated, a good while had passed.

Looking at her pretty face full of desire, Qiao Yanjue felt his lower abdomen tighten.
The impulse that hadn’t subsided before almost stirred.

He held back reluctantly and pulled away.

Instead of leaning over, Xia Xibei continued to ask the question from earlier.
“Who was going to acquire SY?”

Somehow, she had a different premonition in her mind.

“Not sure, I rejected it outright.
I heard it was someone from the imperial capital.” Qiao Yanjue shook his head.

Noticing her strange expression, he asked, “What’s wrong?”

“Um…”

“Is it bad?” Qiao Yanjue asked.

“Not bad… exactly.” Xia Xibei shook her head.
“I’m just not very sure.”

“You can tell me.
I’ll help you be sure.”

After hesitating for a moment, Xia Xibei confessed.
“I think… I might know the person who wants to acquire SY.”

At these words, Qiao Yanjue froze.
“You do?”

“It’s just a possibility, but I’m not sure.”

Seeing her reaction, Qiao Yanjue’s heart sank.
“Who is it?”

“It could be someone named Leon, because he said he was also from the imperial capital.”

“Leon?… Imperial capital… The name is familiar…” Qiao Yanjue frowned before his eyes suddenly widened.
“Li Feiyun?! “
