She had already lowered her stance, and she’d said everything she could, yet…

“I’m afraid it’s not convenient.”

Qu Yunyao was stunned again, he hadn’t expected him to refuse so straightforwardly, “Brother in law, my boyfriend truly wants to reconcile with you.”

“Miss Qu.” Xiao Yebai calmly looked at her, although his face showed no expression, his eyes were piercingly sharp, as if they could see right through people.

He said, “If you’re just looking to help Xu Rui make a film, I suggest you put more effort into your work. Otherwise, I suggest you give up sooner rather than later.”

“What do you mean by that, brother-in-law?” Qu Yunyao innocently asked.

“Being ambitious is good, but alas, you’ve used the wrong methods.”

Qu Yunyao’s face turned pale, “Brother-in-law, do you have to be so harsh?”

She lowered her head, lightly biting her lip, even choking back a sob, “I know, I did wrong before when I offended you at the old house, but I did all those things sincerely wanting to help Xu Rui. He made many sacrifices for these productions, he gave up his comfortable life back in China to travel tirelessly between China and America. He had worked so hard and we finally had a finished product, I truly want to help him fulfill his dream…”

The ring of a mobile phone came from inside the room.

“Excuse me.” Xiao Yebai interrupted her, turning back into the room.

Just as Qu Yunyao was about to follow him…

“Slam”, the door closed so quickly that it nearly hit Qu Yunyao’s nose.

A few minutes later, Qu Yunyao went back down to the room.

“Xu Rui, are you all set?”

“Yunyao, should we really do this?” Xu Rui seemed a little worried.

“You’re not having second thoughts, are you?” Qu Yunyao was visibly frustrated.

She met Xu Rui in America.

At first, she wasn’t attracted to him, what she needed wasn’t a man still struggling, but one who had already succeeded in business.

However, she eventually found out that Xu Rui came from a wealthy background, the Xiu family may not be as wealthy as the Mo Family, but it’s still considered quite the large clan within China.

He didn’ t want to rely on his family because he genuinely loved filmmaking and, due to his youthful exuberance, he wanted to achieve something great on his own.

Thus, after a lot of contemplation, Qu Yunyao decided to take a gamble.

She firmly believed that as long as she could help Xu Rui take the first successful step and make the Xiu family believe in his capability, everything would naturally fall into place.

However…

After spending half a year with him, she found that Xu Rui had so many flaws. He was proud but arrogant, stubborn, impulsive, and often indecisive at crucial moments.

With that, Qu Yunyao was evidently unhappy.

No wonder the Xiu family never had full confidence in him, how could he do anything great with such indecisiveness?

“Yunyao.” Xu Rui was hesitant, “I just think it’s too risky foryou.”

Qu Yunyao finally realized his worries, she hugged her boyfriend, gently whispered, “Haven’t we already agreed? We are just going to take some pictures of me and him together, I really can’t think of any other way to make him agree to invest.”

“But you are my girlfriend, I don’t want you to be taken advantage of.” Xu Rui was deeply affectionate, looking like a considerate boyfriend, “how about we find another woman out there to help me instead? I don’t want him to take advantage of you.”

Qu Yunyao could only reassure him, “No, I will wait for the right opportunity to drug him, then take him back to this room. You just need to be ready to take the photos, you will be there watching, what’s there to worry about? Once we have the photos, we will take him home and let him meet his fate.”

“But…”

“The main concern is that an outsider may not be reliable. If he manages to bribe her with money, wouldn’t all our efforts be in vain?” Qu Yunyao thought she had planned well ahead. “We are doing all these for our future, we can threaten him with the pictures and go to the Mo Family! By then, he would have to pay more than just ten billion. If he is wise, he will surely agree to help you invest.”

Xu Rui hugged her, a mysterious look disappearing from his eyes.

He initially thought since Qu Yunyao was related to the Mo Family, they would easily lend a hand. Everything was going smoothly until now, until this Xiao Yebai appeared and became an obstacle.

Not only did he completely reject his works at the investment meeting, he is not even willing to give a second chance.

It was utterly stubborn.

He came to Haicheng to find a chance to meet him privately, but he didn’t even grant him that much face.

They have no choice but to take this final step.

At seven in the evening, in a banquet hall on the second floor of the hotel.

A banquet was in progress, full of elegant ladies and fragrant wines.

Qu Yunyao walked into the banquet hall wearing a white dress, and quickly spotted Xiao Yebai chatting with a few executives.

Compared to the middle-aged bosses with receding hairlines or beer bellies around him, he was young, handsome, tall, with elegant glasses, he was undoubtedly the highlight of the banquet.

Qu Yunyao noticed that many women were already frequently throwing glances at him, with the more daring ones even flirting openly.

She wet her red lips and sat patiently in the corner, waiting until the crowd around Xiao Yebai gradually left. Then, he walked towards the balcony.

Now is the time!
