Jiang Dai could not help but take a deep breath.
For a moment, the Goddess was simply rendered speechless.
Have they agreed on not letting her take advantage of the weekends to sleep in?
It was merely after 10 in the morning. Since she had been swamped with work as of late, Jiang Dai initially planned to wake up at 2 in the afternoon!
As such, Jiang Dai asked grumpily, “Mr. Huo, is there something I can help you with?”
Even after hearing her question, the countenance of the b*stard on the intercom video remained the same. “It is natural that I have something to say to you for me to be here.”
“……”
She could not for the life of her figure out what sort of serious business Huo Rongshen would have to come all the way here to look for her.

In actual fact, she could have just disconnected the call and locked Huo Rongshen out.
There was a security guard on duty at the entrance outside the courtyard. If she were unwilling to open the door from her end, Huo Rongshen would never be able to enter unless he alighted from his car and climbed over the wall.
But he had to let Qiao Jinye hear his f*cking bullsh*t……
Just like that, the entire situation became so awkward, and there was no way she would let Qiao Jinye misunderstand. Otherwise, wouldn’t she just be looking for trouble even when there was none? Although it had not been long since she had taken over her family business, Jiang Dai understood very well that unnecessary trouble or misunderstanding were things that companies feared most when it came to entering a cooperation. Not only that, but employees were also not permitted to enter an office romance, let alone the CEOs……
All of a sudden, Jiang Dai was under tremendous pressure.
Gnashing her teeth, she enunciated carefully as she laced menacing threats within her words. “Mr. Huo, do you wish to be struck by lightning again?”
Upon hearing that, Huo Rongshen’s countenance remained the same as before. Even so, he had absolutely no self-awareness of being regarded with disdain by his ex-wife.
He commented calmly, “Since you are not on a date, both of you must be talking about business. Since everyone is here on business, it makes no sense that he is allowed to enter, yet I am not. Could it be possible that Miss Jiang minds my status as your ex-husband?”
Jiang Dai pressed the button to open the door with a grimace that distorted her face before it was quickly replaced by a smile that seemed full of great fortitude. “Mr. Huo, please slow down a little. This villa courtyard of mine is rather big and has an artificial lake, so you’d better not fall into the ditch.”
After saying so, she hung up and walked back to Qiao Jinye with a somewhat stiff expression.
Even with all that had occurred, Qiao Jinye appeared to be pretty calm, as if he did not feel any discomfort from the arrival of this newly arrived uninvited guest.
After Jiang Dai retook her seat on the sofa, he took the initiative to pick up the food container. “Would you like to try some baked vegetable frittata? It is made of broccoli, tomato, and spinach. All in all, it tastes pretty good.”
After thanking him, Jiang Dai picked up her fork and continued to eat.
As she ate, she tried her best to calm herself. After mulling over those thoughts, she decided that since Huo Rongshen was already here, she could not let him be completely useless.
For instance, she could just handle the situation as she pleased before finding a random excuse to drive both Huo Rongshen and Qiao Jinye away. That way, she could continue catching up on her sleep.
……
As Huo Rongshen entered from the foyer, Jiang Dai was so focused on eating that she could not even be bothered to lift her head and look at him.
On the other hand, Qiao Jinye was pretty much on the edge of his seat. This ex-husband of Jiang Dai’s was seriously born far too eye-catching.
As a famous celebrity, he would even dress casually on the weekend like this, yet her ex-husband was still impeccably dressed.
Huo Rongshen was already a man of lofty stature. Standing at the height of 185 centimeters, Qiao Jinye had absolutely no advantage over him whatsoever. At first glance, one could tell his sophisticated tailored suit, handmade by renowned designers, further emphasized his tall stature.
As they entered the summer season, the temperature crept higher by the day. Despite wearing such thick clothes, this man did not find them too warm. It was as if his aloof and arrogant demeanor came with his very own portable air-conditioning.
Qiao Jinye had long since accepted the fact that Jiang Dai was previously married to this man, so it had been ages since it had felt this excruciating.
What’s more, now that they had already divorced, the situation should have been in his favor.
However, when this guy appeared before him, packed with an overwhelming aura.
All of a sudden, it triggered Qiao Jinye to experience a fleeting delusion where he had gone back to three years ago.
During his freshman year, he participated and made his debut in a talent search program. Even though he became famous overnight, he was under a great deal of pressure.
On the surface, Qiao Jinye might seem reticent, as well as calm towards life and career. However, he was, in fact, someone who set himself very high standards. Not to mention, he was also the face of his family’s company, Qiao Yi.
In comparison, talent show programs in the country were still pretty new in the past. Hence, kids who wished to make their mark in stardom by joining a boy group would usually make their way to Country H to be a trainee at 13 or 14. It was only after undergoing 3 to 5 years of systematic maturation training would they be able to debut.
Even though Qiao Jinye had already reached adulthood, he had absolutely no experience in this whatsoever. Even if he had talent and innate ability to attract fans, he was still far behind the most capable rivals in the competitive performing arts profession.
When it came to dancing and vocal arts, one would require talent. In addition to innate skills, one would also need techniques that could only be enhanced through long-term training.
As such, his debut marked the beginning of his high-intensity training. The most challenging time he had endured was when he underwent an intensive boot camp where he was not permitted to use the internet.
In a blink of an eye, his busy schedule persisted till the winter break during his sophomore year.
Back then, he fought hard and managed to acquire a five days holiday during the Spring Festival. Since he had nothing on his work schedule, he planned to invite Jiang Dai and the others out for a gathering.
However, one of them updated him offhandedly, “Sister Dai? I am afraid you won’t be able to invite Sister Dai out! She will be far too busy since she has to go to her future in-laws’ place for dinner and to visit relatives for the new year.”
