After having managed to safely make it through the night on the cruise, trembling in trepidation, as soon as they had disembarked, Song Xuanhe began a punctual routine of going to work from 9 to 5. At work, he would prudently avoid Xiao Yuanmu. When he got off work, he'd go straight back to the Song Residence. His schedule was now very rigid.

When he recalled how Xiao Yuanmu had said that he'd check, Song Xuanhe felt his scalp go numb. Although he was certain that he wouldn't react even if Xiao Yuanmu were to sit on his lap and seduce him, even just thinking about it made him feel opposed. Moreover, he didn't know if Xiao Yuanmu would use some other kind of method to turn him on.

However, he couldn't hide from him forever. The plot still had to go on at the specified times. Even if he wanted to keep avoiding the other, he had no choice but to brace himself.

The gathering this time was a biannual party for those in the circle who already possessed some level of authority and influence. The event was considered for both business and pleasure. You could come to expand your connections or to just have fun.

It was precisely because of this that the participants of this party were of all different levels of society. It was not restricted to people of only one circle or age group. The participants in attendance were: second-generations who were already in power, those who were currently being taught by their families to take over, and also many young entrepreneurs who had started their companies from scratch. The only thing in common was that most of them were under thirty years old.

The reason Sun Jinren had appeared at this party, aside from the fact that he was eligible, was because someone else had brought him. When Song Xuanhe saw him today, he found out that the person who had brought Sun Jinren was unexpectedly Song Jiabao.

Song Xuanhe recalled that it had also been Song Jiabao who had told Sun Jinren of the relationship between himself and Xiao Yuanmu. He had also been the one to urge Sun Jinren to attempt to lay his hands on Xiao Yuanmu. Contemplation flashed through Song Xuanhe's eyes. Although Song Jiabao loathed the original host, for some reason, he had never done anything to him directly. Instead, he had always acted against Xiao Yuanmu.

However, what Song Xuanhe was more concerned over was the fact that Sun Jinren was still able to attend this party despite the fact that his company had changed hands. Once again, he perceived just how strong the plot's force was.

Xiao Yuanmu had also noticed Sun Jinren. The light in his eyes flickered, and his gaze discreetly flitted to Song Xuanhe.

Song Xuanhe didn't notice his gaze. He raised his head and faced towards Song Jiabao, who was walking over. The corner of his lips rose. "Cousin, I hadn't expected for you to come. I heard that my brother was busy. You must have gotten your hands on his invitation."

Song Xuanhe also smiled. "You specifically went to ask my brother for his invitation for this trifling matter? He could have just told this to our butler. There was no need to trouble Cousin."

Song Jiabao glared at him coldly. His gaze flitted between Song Xuanhe and Xiao Yuanmu, who the former was holding hands with. He then sneered. "You must quite like this little boyfriend of yours. It's one thing to bring him to such an important occasion, but must you two men hold hands like this and be so clingy? But then again, who knows how long the two of you will be able to be so affectionate?"

Song Xuanhe's eyelashes trembled slightly. He looked at Sun Jinren, who stood behind Song Jiabao. "I hadn't expected to see Boss Sun here either. Has the issue with Boss Sun's company already been resolved?"

Sun Jinren hadn't thought Song Xuanhe would suddenly speak to him. He subconsciously glanced at Xiao Yuanmu, who made him feel dread. Although he had determined that the person who had acquired his company and become the largest shareholder had nothing to do with Xiao Yuanmu, his intuition told him that Xiao Yuanmu definitely still had something to do with it.
