As soon as Huo Moting went downstairs to the coffee shop, he saw Gu Xiaoxiao sitting by the window. His black, low-cut dress revealed her exquisite collarbone as well as his short skirt. His legs crossed over each other made one's imagination run wild. Wearing high-heeled shoes, she didn't have much fat on her. Her legs were long and slender, and although the makeup on his face was not gorgeous, it was clean and proper. His skin was almost translucent white under the sunlight.

Huo Moting was stunned, he did not expect that after Gu Xiaoxiao left him for just a few days, she was actually living a life that was even more exquisite than when she was with him. Was really leaving him the best choice for her?

Gu Xiaoxiao turned her head and saw Huo Moting standing at the doorway. When she didn't see him, she thought that her feelings for him would be washed away by time, but the moment she saw him, his heart still skipped a beat. Unexpectedly, she lost just by looking at him from afar, Gu Xiaoxiao mocked him in his heart.

When Huo Moting walked to the opposite side of him and sat down, he took a deep breath to resist the urge to cry and lowered his head to take a sip of coffee.

Huo Moting suddenly pulled Gu Xiaoxiao's hand. Her palm was as cold as when he had first touched it. The familiar feeling made Gu Xiaoxiao's body tremble, allowing him to pull herself back.

"I'm just afraid that if you get ahead of yourself, you'll leave me too soon." Huo Moting looked at the lady who had her head lowered, and said, he could not see Gu Xiaoxiao's expression nor did he know what she was thinking.

At this time, Qin Ran had also arrived at the building of Huo Moting's company. The sun was so bright that it made her feel dizzy. Suddenly, he saw a coffee shop beside his.

The moment he pushed the door open and entered, he saw Huo Moting and Gu Xiaoxiao sitting by the window, intimately holding hands. Seeing this scene, Qin Ran felt powerless, it turned out that Gu Xiaoxiao and Huo Moting were still so close. So the suppression of the studio by the Huo family was related to the two of them, right?

Qin Ran's nose suddenly became sore. He looked at the two people by the window and laughed contemptuously, then turned and left.

"Xiaoxiao, I only hope that you can stay by my side. I have no other intentions." Huo Moting said seriously, "Also, I don't want to get divorced. I hope you can reconsider and give us two another chance."

Gu Xiaoxiao did not raise her head to look at him, because she knew that if she saw his eyes, she would immediately follow him. However, she couldn't allow herself to act on her own will in this situation. If she chose to repeat the same name, the two of them would continue to suffer harm because of each other.

Gu Xiaoxiao took a deep breath, then drank another mouthful of coffee. The knuckles on her hands that held the coffee cup were somewhat white.

Seeing that Gu Xiaoxiao had not spoken for a long time, and thinking that she was determined to leave, Huo Moting could only withdraw his hand and pull at his, and said with a solemn face: "I don't know when I fell in love with you, but it could be that the moment I laid eyes on you, I was destined to fall into defeat.

Actually, I know that you are very unhappy with me. I always hurt you by accident, and I can't stop you from getting hurt.

I know that I am an incompetent husband, and every time you need me, I am unable to show up in time to protect you. Every time I do this, I will leave you alone to bear all of this, but Xiaoxiao, I sincerely want to have a good time with you. From when I was young until now, I have always been afraid of trusting others, of letting them get too close to me, and even more so of communicating with others.

However, ever since I met you, I realized that I don't have to hide so much from you, and I don't have to always be on guard against you. Or maybe it's because I'm too bad that you've been disappointed in me time and time again. If you insist on leaving, I won't stop you, I just hope that you can see my sincerity. "Un, it's good that you make your own decision. I will accept any good or bad decision."

Every word that Huo Moting said was as sharp as needles stabbing Gu Xiaoxiao's heart. He said that did not need to disguise himself in front of him, wasn't he the same as well? In front of Huo Moting, all of Gu Xiaoxiao's happiness and sadness came from the bottom of her heart. Did this mean that he had also thrown himself into this fake relationship?

"Let's talk about it when we've calmed down with each other. "Perhaps, I will be very busy recently. This is also good. Hopefully, we can take advantage of this time to properly consider our relationship with each other."

Gu Xiaoxiao could finally raise her head and look into Huo Moting's eyes, but her voice was still a little shaky. "But in the current circumstances, it's better for us to separate. I won't go back with you.

You are a high and mighty President of the Hauptverwaltungsgebaude, and I am just a nobody. Even if we were together, we would be crushed by public opinion. I hope that one day I will stand before you as an equal, and then it would be more appropriate for us to consider our own problems.

You know, I don't have a home anymore, but I have to live well, better than ever. And you can't help me in this matter. I can only rely on myself, and hope that you can understand me. "

Gu Xiaoxiao's words carried a hint of a crying tone, Huo Moting knew very well that Gu Xiaoxiao was very strong.

"I understand everything you say, and I support your approach. I want to say, if you need any help, you can come to me, I .. " Facing such a resolute Gu Xiaoxiao, Huo Moting could only compromise.

It was unknown when Gu Xiaoxiao had changed from being a girl who only knew how to hide and cry. After experiencing so much, she had also become a mature woman. She would also stand out and protect him and the people and things she loved from getting hurt.

"Like I said, you can't help me with this matter, no one can. I can only rely on myself. If you have nothing else, then I'll be leaving first. Take good care of yourself and take care of yourself. "

After Gu Xiaoxiao finished the cup of coffee in one gulp, she stood up and quickly left the coffee shop on her high heels. Huo Moting looked at the remnants of's lipstick print on the coffee cup, the air around him seemed to be filled with Gu Xiaoxiao's unique fragrance. Huo Moting was reluctant to part with it for a long time, and after sitting alone for a while, he slowly got up and left the coffee shop.

After exiting the coffee shop, Gu Xiaoxiao hurriedly returned to her studio. Upon entering, he saw that Qin Ran was talking about work with someone else, so Gu Xiaoxiao prepared to look for Qin Ran later to talk about work issues and apologize for his mistakes. Unexpectedly, Qin Ran turned around and returned to his office when he saw Gu Xiaoxiao, not giving her much time to speak.

Gu Xiaoxiao felt that it was strange, she had fought with Qin Ran quite a few times, but every time, it was the next day that the two of them would get back together, and at most, they had not quarreled for three days. And this time, it was only because of some trivial matters, there was no need to be so serious.

Gu Xiaoxiao looked at the closed door of Qin Ran's office. Originally, she wanted to try and knock on it, but at this time, the assistant was looking for him to explain the situation. Gu Xiaoxiao had no choice but to give up and head to his office to discuss things with the assistant.

And throughout the entire day, Gu Xiaoxiao had not found the chance to talk to Qin Ran. Sometimes Qin Ran would intentionally avoid him and walk away, and sometimes he would just find someone else to pass on a message. Gu Xiaoxiao was furious, she pushed open the door and rushed in, at the same time, Qin Ran was busy organizing the documents, seeing Gu Xiaoxiao barging in, he frowned.

"Designer Gu, don't you know that you have to knock on the door before entering?" Qin Ran said with disdain.

"Hey, what's wrong with you? Did I offend you? I admit it was my fault that I didn't come back last night and didn't call you. You were worried about me at home. But there is a reason for that, and I can explain it to you. " Gu Xiaoxiao said as she stood in front of Qin Ran's desk and leaned on the table.

"You don't have to explain too much. You just have to know what you've done. I don't care what kind of man's home you live in or what you've done in secret with. This kind of thing has nothing to do with me. Qin Ran choked back, he picked up his jacket and bag and turned to leave the office. When he reached the entrance of the office, he slammed the door loudly, leaving Gu Xiaoxiao behind.

Because the two of them were doing well in their business, Xiaoran Studio had gained a certain level of fame in the industry. Everyone felt that for a studio without any background to be able to do this, it was already very outstanding.

However, Qin Ran and Gu Xiaoxiao still acted like strangers, and did not interact much. After work, Gu Xiaoxiao stayed in the workshop. Although it was hard, but because Gu Xiaoxiao worked hard everyday, she did not feel uncomfortable. When she was tired from work, she would take a shower in the office shower room and then sleep on the sofa.

After the Xiaoran Studio had reached a certain scale, in order to expand the market, Gu Xiaoxiao decided to hold a press conference for new products in a month, so that the industry insiders could better understand the Xiaoran Studio.

After the date for the press conference was set, Gu Xiaoxiao and Qin Ran began to busy themselves with their own matters. Gu Xiaoxiao would still modify and design the wrong designs in her own office every day, and the wrong drafts would be thrown all over the place. And in order to better reflect the characteristics of the clothing, material selection and sewing techniques are also essential.

Because of this press conference, Gu Xiaoxiao worked busily for a few days and nights without closing her eyes. During the day she would go to various markets to see the ingredients that could more highlight the characteristics of the clothes.

Seeing Gu Xiaoxiao work so hard and not having a good sleep for a long time, Qin Ran felt extremely pained for him. After such a long time, Qin Ran finally calmed himself down, and felt that there were some things between the two of them that needed to be explained, so he brought some of Gu Xiaoxiao's favorite snacks, and prepared to go to the office to see her, and advise her to rest.

Before he left, Qin Ran happened to glance at the TV in his office, which was busy broadcasting the morning news. The headline on the news was that Qin Se Studio was holding a new product conference today. The scale of the event had attracted the attention of many industry insiders. Suddenly, seeing the published design draft for the new product and the real one, Qin Ran's mind buzzed, and ran back to Gu Xiaoxiao's office in a hurry.

That new product is almost the same as Gu Xiaoxiao's design!

Qin Ran wanted to ask Gu Xiaoxiao what was going on, but unexpectedly, the door to Gu Xiaoxiao's office was tightly locked.

"Xiaoxiao, Xiaoxiao, open the door, Xiaoxiao?"
