"You want to come over? Now?" Xue Xue clamped the microphone on her shoulder, and her long slender fingers moved rapidly on the keyboard. "Well, I haven't had lunch yet, but… hello? Liang Xiao?"
After saving the file, Xue Xue helplessly looked at the phone that had been hung up.
It seemed Liang Xiao was really anxious.
But forget it, he could come if he wanted, there was nothing to worry about.
Xue Xue, who had adjusted her mentality at once, stretched her waist, moved her stiff neck and called her secretary.
"Make me a hot latte and bring it here."
"Okay. Do you need a takeout?"
Takeout? Thinking that the man had just said that he had bought the food, Xue Xue shook her head. "No, just coffee."
"Okay."
When the secretary left, silence returned to the office.
Now was the season where spring was about to be replaced by summer. The wind was breezy but the sun shone brightly. The blue sky stretched out like a large curtain that has no end, with only two or three floating clouds occasionally drifting by. The building of "Tongxin Entertainment" is not located in the center of the bustling business district, so it is particularly very quiet in the afternoon of normal working days. The two rows of tall trees on the asphalt road are lush, green and red, and it looked very beautiful.
Xue Xue enjoyed the scenery for a while.
Until the secretary knocked on the door.
"Come in."
"General manager, Mr. Liang is outside…"
"When did I need to report when I want to enter Xue Qiao's office?"
The angry baritone made Xue Xue frown, and she immediately realized that the Mr. Liang in her secretary mouth was Liang He and not Liang Xiao.
She didn't expect Liang He to come to her door so quickly.
However, as soon as the gears in her mind turned, Xue Xue understood that someone must have "tipped off".
The relationship between Liang He and Xue Qiao has no longer been a secret in the company, so there were people who disliked Liang He and those who wanted to please Liang He.
Him coming earlier was good. It saved future trouble.
"Mr. Liang, wait a moment, Liang…"
While Xue Xue was still thinking about it, Liang He had already pushed open the door with a a loud sound.
Xue Xue turned her head and happened to meet Liang He's eyes.
Temperament was probably the biggest difference between the two brothers. If Liang He was a prince living in a castle, Liang Xiao was probably the king of all the animals running in the jungle.
As for the appearance, the two were similar, but Liang He looked younger and more energetic. Xue Xue didn't know if it was because of the previously poor life and excessive indulgence in their relationship, the eyes which should have been bright looked listless and lifeless like painted glass beads.
Xue Xue looked away at once. On the contrary, Liang He's eyes stared at her, and his black pupils flashed a hint of surprise and deep amazement.
He didn't expect Xue Qiao to be so beautiful today.

From Liang He's point of view, Xue Qiao used to be a workaholic with a bit of passion, but as their relationship became more stable, she became more and more boring, with a beautiful appearance but a dull soul. When compared, all kinds of beauties in the entertainment industry were much more pleasing to the eyes.
And whenever facing Xue Qiao, Liang He always has the feeling of a subordinate facing his boss.
Xue Qiao's existence reminded him all the time that his resources, his popularity, and his success were all the result of an operation by her.
When enjoying the sweet fruits brought by this result, Liang He is at peace with himself, but when someone ridicules him because of this, Liang He becomes cynical and blames Xue Qiao for all of these.
Under the intensification of the two contradictions, the man has turned from feeling ashamed for the first time to later taking it for granted.
Xue Qiao herself didn't have much requirements.
It was also Xue Qiao who wasn't romantic and she couldn't blame others.
The more ridiculous the excuses were, the more addicted was the man in finding the lost self-esteem and pride from other women, and to be complacent.
Liang He never regretted it for a day.
He had already figured out Xue Qiao's temperament and knew that the other party couldn't let him go, so she might be angry and sad, but those accusations and harsh words were just bluffs.
In the end, Xue Qiao would always compromise, and it has even become a habitual reaction.
The only time that made Liang He really panicked was when he accidentally took a human life. There was panic at first, then resentment, especially when the girl who was as elegant as a chrysanthemum and as noble as an orchid held back her tears and agreed to have an abortion, Liang He felt that he was really a coward.
He hated his own powerlessness, but was glad that the matter could be resolved smoothly. However, he did not expect that the aftermath was not thoroughly cleaned out, allowing Liang Xiao to poke the matter to Xue Qiao.
Thinking of his older brother… Liang He's face sank immediately and he had felt a sense of solemnity when he had stood in front of the building.
Xue Xue looked at Liang He's face, which was was changing colors rapidly from blue, red, white, and black, and couldn't help laughing.
A faint "oh" became a weapon to break the calm.
"General manager, I'm sorry, I…"
"It's okay."
Xue Xue waved her hand. She knew that the secretary wanted to stop but didn't dare to stop, so she was in a dilemma.
And this was because Xue Qiao herself indulged Liang He in the front of everyone.
"Put the coffee aside, you can leave first."
"…Yes."
When the secretary left, only Liang He and Xue Qiao remained in the huge office.
Without the presence of outsiders, Liang He didn't care about maintaining his face, and shouted directly at Xue Xue: "Did you give the position of the dance center to He Yuxiang? Didn't you agree to give it to me?"
She didn't expect Liang He who looked like a refined gentleman to have such a loud voice.
He was so rude.
"For you?" The first thing she did was to raise her eyebrows at his behavior, and after loosening it, the corners of her lips twitched, and she asked with a half-smile. "Why should I give it to you?"
