Xia Yiwei seemed really cold to Hou Zi. Every time Hou Zi appeared in front of her, she would never reminisce about their past; she would immediately turn to avoid him. As for talking on the phone, she had never actively contacted him since they broke up.

Since they had broken up, she wouldn’t want to contact him.

Women were even more cruel than men sometimes. Once a woman decided not to love a person anymore, it was even harder than a man to change her mind.

She hanging up on the phone once again made Hou Zi angry until his face changed completely. He clenched the phone tightly, his arms trembled, and he lowered his head. Perhaps the only person who could make him, the Third Master, so angry that he wanted to kill people… was Miss Xia.

After a while, Hou Zi’s cold voice sounded from the office, making the atmosphere in the office full of murderous intent, “One day, I will give you only one day to find out who is spreading false rumours behind my back!”

His voice was so serious. His assistant couldn’t help trembling in fear after receiving the order.

It had been a long, long time since he saw Third Master so angry. He couldn’t remember when was the last time Hou Zi was this angry. Perhaps it has been more than three years already.

“Yes, Third Master. We’ve sent out someone to investigate the matter, and we will immediately report to you when we have any news.”

Hou Zi’s subordinates had always been able to handle affairs; as long as the matter concerned Xia Yiwei, they would prioritize it; they dared not to delay even just a little bit.

In particular, since the rumor was related to their Third Master having an affair with a high school student, they wouldn’t dare to delay at all.

“Bring that person to me. I have not met a person who dared to add peachy news about me for such a long time.” Hou Zi stood up, pulled on his tie a little irritably, “I am going out for a while. Give the chairman of Cheng Guang Group a call, tell him that I have something urgent to deal with, and I will make an appointment with him tomorrow as an amendment.”

He hadn’t received a call from her for at least hundreds of days; this matter must be very important.

Of course, he wouldn’t overthink and thought that she had called him for his sake.

The moment she spoke, she said, “Perhaps this matter is targeting Ye Jian1”, alas, he had waited for her to take the initiative to make a call. He didn’t expect that she would call him because of the rumor that he had an affair with Sixth Brother Xia’s girlfriend. But she did anyway, although the call was only sixteen seconds!

After seventeen years of relationship, they could guess what the other party would do next. When Xia Yiwei drove and appeared at the gate of First Provincial High, she saw a familiar man with one hand in his trouser pocket, standing proudly beside a black car, giving out a cold aura while waiting for her.

“You’re here.” Hou Zi walked over and looked at the woman, whom he used to be able to hold her in his arms just by stretching his arms out, but now he felt a pain in his heart, looking at his lover whom he could barely meet anymore. He didn’t know how they even came to this point.

Xia Yiwei took off her sunglasses, revealing a pair of beautiful eyes. It was sporadic for a 35 or 36 woman to have a pair of eyes that were as clear as a lady.

Looking at Hou Zi faintly, her red lips flared slightly, “Something has happened to Sixth Brother’s girlfriend, so as his sister, of course I will come here to make sure everything is okay.”

“I will accompany you.”

“It’s alright, Third Master, this is our family affairs. Also, please handle your matters at hand properly, don’t get my family involved in your matters.” Her mouth flattened slowly, her expression getting colder and colder as she rejected him, “I don’t want Ye Jian to be affected because of you. That would just make Sixth Brother worried. I also don’t want Ye Jian to suffer because of you.”
