With the ring Mother He had given her, the gloom that had weighed on Zhu Suosuo vanished instantly. She transformed back into the hard-working, driven career woman she was every day. Yet her stint as a high-powered career woman lasted only a few days before trouble struck again. This time, the incident angered He Wenjie even more: someone actually dared to come to Jingyan Group to make romantic overtures to Zhu Suosuo, which was essentially a direct slap in his face.
The brave soul who dared to slap him across the face was Xie Hongzu, a minor second-generation rich kid in He Wenjie's eyes, whose family made their living in the air conditioning business. The apartment Zhu Suosuo sold before transferring away from sales was the one Xie Hongzu had bought. Later, when Zhu Suosuo became Ye Jinyan's assistant and took charge of some of the group's external investment promotion work, their paths crossed again precisely because Zhu Suosuo was now responsible for liaising with Xie Group on air conditioning procurement partnerships.
Although Zhu Suosuo had explicitly rejected Xie Hongzu's advances at the very first moment and made it crystal clear to him that her boyfriend was He Wenjie, this mama's boy—untouched by the harsh realities of society—still tirelessly manufactured those juvenile romantic gestures outside the doors of Jingyan Group every day. They were gestures that only moved himself, while appearing utterly tedious to everyone else.
