In the face of the taunts, Huo Yunting gave a calm retort. “No I’ll pass. Staying in the same room with you is already testing my limits.”

As he finished, he turned towards Lu Zhaoyang, “Let’s go.”

Lu Zhaoyang dejectedly followed behind.

Suddenly Xiang Jinxi spoke again, “Lu Zhaoyang, if Thunderbolt ever goes bankrupt someday, you’re always welcomed to come back to Xiangyuan.”

“You...”

Lu Zhaoyang turned back angrily.

Does this guy not know any limits?

Even if he were to take this project, it will be a good five to six years before he will be able to overtake Thunderbolt.

“Xiang Jinxi.”

Huo Yunting interrupted her as he walked on, his back straight and his pose elegant as usual, as if he was taking a walk in the park.

“I hope you can laugh a while longer, your luck last a while longer, or my days after will be rather boring no?”

He suddenly turned back, and against the light, there was an ethereal veil over his immaculate face.

“That aside, remember this. The next time we meet again, it’ll be the end of you.”

“Is that so.” Xiang Jinxi’s gaze was chilly. “Perhaps it will be yours as well.”

Huo Yunting shrugged, and hid the killing intent in his eyes before coiling his arm around Lu Zhaoyang’s waist and waved to the crowd.

“So long, everyone.”

Just as he left, someone from the crowd immediately went ahead to congratulate Xiang Jinxi.

“Mr Xiang, that was impressive!”

“I never thought that you had such a card to play,” The CEO of Minghai Group sighed. “Good going there, even Thunderbolt was no match for you, my deepest respects.”

“...”

After being hit hard by Thunderbolt for so long, this was finally a moment of relief.

Even if he tried to suppress it, a smug aura started to appear all over his face.

As he looked at Huo Yunting leaving through the window, he slightly raised his voice. “All thanks to a loser like Mr Huo making way.”

“...”

The entire hall fell into an awkward silence.

They could no afford to offend Huo Yunting, and Xiang Jinxi too, was far different from yesterday, and was not to be trifled with, so they could only laugh awkwardly.

Huo Yunting hugged Lu Zhaoyang as he left the building, and with the help of the security personnel, they managed to squeeze through the throng of reporters after some effort, and quickly got into the car.

Huo Li immediately floored the accelerator, and through the back mirror saw Lu Zhaoyang’s anguished, furious and dejected face, he paused for a moment before coughing, as he asked the obvious question.

“We lost?”

“...”

Lu Zhaoyang lowered her head even more, and she was even more distressed and angry.

It’s all Huo Yunting’s fault!

If he had paid more attention to this project, they probably would not have lost!

As she recalled his slothful manner in the past few days, Lu Zhaoyang immediately cast an infuriated glance at him, only to see him planting his face onto his palm deep in thought. Under the dim light inside the carriage, his expression was indiscernible.

She was stunned, as her expression softened, and said gently. “Don’t feel too bad, it’s okay even if we lost, I believe you can defeat Xiang Jinxi.”

This loss, she believed, was even more painful for Huo Yunting compared to her.

“...Yeah.”

Huo Yunting’s brow fluttered slightly, as his lips curled a little, showing a rare sign on weakness.

Lu Zhaoyang looked on worriedly at him and lay into his arms as her arms wrapped around him.

“I’ll always be with you, no matter what happens.”

“I know.”

His voice was low-spirited, but over in a corner where Lu Zhaoyang could not see, a seductive smirk appeared at the edge of his mouth.
