Chapter 705

Ye Yaoguang probably did not expect Jiang Nannan to have such a clear-headed realization.

Sure enough, the woman who can make a domineering CEO fall in love in this world is not the silly, sweet girl written in books.

"Going to the police is more useful," Jiang Nannan reminded her sincerely.

Ye Yaoguang took a deep breath, "Believe it or not, I truly regret it now."

She provoked someone she shouldn't have provoked and committed mistakes she shouldn't have committed.

If she hadn't harbored malicious intentions back then, perhaps her career in Jing City and within the Huo Corporation would have already reached a higher level by now.

Her stepfather wouldn't have come knocking, either.

"Regret cannot change the facts that have already occurred," Jiang Nannan said expressionlessly.

She held her phone and walked down from the bed.

Suddenly feeling a bit short of breath, she opened the curtains, and just as she was about to open the window, she saw the figure of Huo Jingyan; he had returned.

Ye Yaoguang probably knew that no matter what else she said, she wouldn't achieve her goal, so she hung up the phone.

Jiang Nannan did not turn on the lights when she walked off the bed.

So when Huo Jingyan raised his head and looked toward the dark room, Jiang Nannan instinctively took a step back.

The curtains were half-open. Perhaps Huo Jingyan had already seen her.

The sky was dark, and she could not see what expression Huo Jingyan had.

Very quickly, she heard the sound of Huo Jingyan coming upstairs.

When passing her room, Huo Jingyan's footsteps clearly paused for a few seconds before he entered the master bedroom.

It was almost in an instant.

Jiang Nannan had an impulse to run out and tell Huo Jingyan that they should let each other go; divorce was the best outcome for them both.

However.

She had just taken one step out when she stopped again.

Wait a little longer...

Perhaps things will get better.

Inside the Gu Corporation Building.

The building had been very busy these past few days.

Everyone had a large amount of work piled up in their hands.

Shu Xia had already worked overtime for two consecutive days; for the past two days, the time she finished work and returned home was around nine o'clock in the evening.

Qiao Muting came to pick her up yesterday.

Today, Qiao Muting suddenly went on a business trip and wouldn't be back until the day after tomorrow. So today, she worked an extra hour of overtime, busy until ten o'clock before finishing work.

She parted ways with Gu Cheng in the parking lot.

In the vast parking lot, only her car remained in an instant.

She rubbed her sore cervical spine, drank a few sips of water, and then started the car to prepare to leave.

The moment she was about to step on the accelerator, a black shadow blocked the front of the car.

Shu Xia slammed her foot up.

She looked toward the front of the car in astonishment.

It was a man.

His figure was tall.

It revealed a sense of familiarity.

Very quickly, she confirmed who the person in front of the car was.
