The overcast sky was filled with a cool, misty breeze. A gentle wind blew toward them, lifting the long, flowing black hair of the girls who stood there casually.
The sky seemed to gradually brighten. As they looked far into the horizon, the faint orange-yellow hue became clearer. With each passing moment, the orange-yellow continued to spread, and the boundary where the sky met the earth slowly transformed into a shade of purple.
At this moment, Xiao Yufan’s heart completely broke free from its constraints—not because of the sunrise, but because of the beauty standing beside him. Her fleeting charm intoxicated him completely.
Perhaps without Yi Han’s deliberate arrangement, the two would still be moving along their respective paths, never meant to cross. Yet, when he finally opened his heart, he realized it had all been his own psychological barriers all along.
“If I can’t avoid a confrontation with Qing Yuanfeng, how will Qing Luan choose? You should know that the conflict between Glory and Wind has already reached a point where a single spark could ignite everything…”
“I won’t let that happen. My brother and I have the closest relationship—he’ll definitely listen to me…”
Qing Luan hesitated slightly, only able to respond ambiguously. In truth, she lacked confidence in her ability to change her brother’s attitude toward Glory.
Two equally outstanding men, nearly identical in temperament—both bold, proud, and untamed. Qing Luan couldn’t even imagine what kind of sparks would fly when they finally clashed.
“I hope so…”
Xiao Yufan knew that Qing Yuanfeng would never choose peaceful coexistence with Glory just because of Qing Luan’s deepening relationship with him. On the contrary, it would only further provoke this sleeping dragon, making the days ahead even more difficult.
Although he knew things wouldn’t turn out as optimistically as Qing Luan imagined, Xiao Yufan didn’t say much. He never wanted this girl to get involved in the conflict between Glory and Wind in the first place—it was nice for her to have something positive to hope for.
The other girls also chose to remain silent. Regarding the matter between Glory and Wind, clearly, Yi Han understood it better. Her efforts to bring the two closer were also meant to provide some help to Glory when necessary.
However, Yi Han hadn’t anticipated that the informal agreement between Xiao Yufan and Qing Yuanfeng would actually accelerate the first direct confrontation between the two corporations…
The gray sky was filled with a cool, misty haze, and gusts of refreshing wind brushed against the faces of the women, lifting their loosely scattered strands of hair…
The sky seemed to gradually brighten, and as one gazed into the distance, the orange hue on the horizon became increasingly vivid. Over time, the orange spread, and the meeting point of heaven and earth slowly turned purple.
At this moment, Xiao Yufan’s heart completely broke free from its constraints—not because of the sunrise, but because of the enchanting presence of the woman beside him. Her fleeting beauty had utterly intoxicated him.
Perhaps without this deliberate arrangement by Yi Han, the two of them would have remained on their own paths, never intersecting. But when he truly opened his heart, he realized that it was merely his own psychological barriers at play.
“If Qing Yuanfeng and I are destined for a confrontation, what choice will Qing Luan make? You should know that the conflict between Brilliance and Storm is on the verge of erupting…”
“I won’t let that happen. My brother and I are very close, and he will surely listen to me…”
Qing Luan’s expression was hesitant, and she could only respond vaguely. In truth, she wasn’t confident whether she could change her brother’s stance toward Brilliance.
Two equally outstanding men, with almost identical personalities—both bold and unyielding. Qing Luan didn’t even know what kind of sparks would fly when the two truly clashed.
“I hope so…”
Xiao Yufan knew that Qing Yuanfeng would not choose to coexist peacefully with Brilliance just because of his closer relationship with Qing Luan. Instead, it would only further provoke this hidden dragon, making the days ahead far from easy.
Although he knew things wouldn’t turn out as beautifully as Qing Luan imagined, Xiao Yufan didn’t say much. He never wanted this girl to get involved in the conflict between Brilliance and Storm, so letting her hold onto some hope wasn’t a bad thing…
The other women also chose to remain silent. When it came to the matters between Brilliance and Storm, Yi Han clearly had a deeper understanding. Her efforts to bring the two together were also aimed at helping Brilliance when the time came.
But Yi Han hadn’t anticipated that the unwritten agreement between Xiao Yufan and Qing Yuanfeng would instead accelerate the first direct confrontation between the two major enterprises…
Enjoying the tranquility of the early morning, Xiao Yufan’s heart also calmed down. Overthinking the issues between Brilliance and Storm now was of no use and would only add unnecessary worries.
Since a direct conflict was inevitable, there was no need to dodge it. As the saying goes, “When soldiers come, we’ll block them; when water flows, we’ll dam it.” He truly didn’t believe that Storm could do much to Brilliance. Even if Storm wanted to suppress Brilliance, it would surely come at a great cost.
With the threat of Lingyun Enterprises gone, Xiao Yufan felt much more at ease. If both Twin Star Enterprises had turned their focus on Brilliance, he might have been overwhelmed. But with only Storm, even with the backing of the Qing family, it wouldn’t stir up too much trouble.
Xiao Yufan believed that once a conflict broke out between Brilliance and Storm, his grandfather would not stand idly by. This meant the Situ family would also intervene. With the Situ family restraining the Qing family, many troubles could be avoided…
“Qing Yuanfeng, I hope you don’t disappoint me. Although you’re strong, you still lack a certain drive. Without the constraints of the Beijing Club, Storm Enterprises might not be limited to just Beijing now!”
Muttering to himself, Xiao Yufan glanced into the distance, a confident smile forming at the corner of his lips. Since that’s the case, let the storm come even more fiercely…
Since a direct confrontation was inevitable, there was no need to dodge. As the saying goes, “When soldiers come, generals resist; when water comes, earth blocks.” He truly didn’t believe that Wind could do much harm to Glory. Even if Wind attempted to suppress Glory, it would surely suffer significant losses.
With Lin Yun no longer posing a threat, Xiao Yufan felt much more relaxed. If both Star Twin Enterprises had targeted Glory simultaneously, he would have been stretched thin. But with only Wind, even if it had Qing family’s backing, it couldn’t create too much turbulence.
Xiao Yufan believed that once a conflict erupted between Glory and Wind, his grandfather wouldn’t stand idly by. In other words, the Situ family would also get involved. With the Situ family keeping the Qing family in check, many troubles could be avoided.
“Qing Yuanfeng, I hope you won’t disappoint me. Although you’re strong, you still lack that fighting spirit. Without the restraints of the Beijing Club, Wind might not be confined to Beijing anymore!”
Muttering softly, Xiao Yufan gazed toward the distance, a confident smile curling his lips. If that’s how it is, then let the storm come even stronger…
