Pretending to be bankrupt, I was kicked out of the family chat group

Chapter 227 This is a big guy!
A trace of disappointment flashed in Zhang Kangyang's eyes, but he quickly adjusted his expression, "Then, you must give me this chance next time, okay?"

Ye Yumo smiled, "Of course, I will do it next time."

The topic gradually turned to work, and Ye Yumo couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Such social situations are always full of too many unknowns and complexities, and sometimes it even makes her feel like she is walking a tightrope.

However, as a successful business woman, she knows how to maintain her grace and grace in complex relationships.

When Zhang Kangyang saw Ye and Mo starting to talk about work, he realized that the atmosphere had changed, so he also followed the topic and turned to business cooperation.

"As for next month's project, I hope there will be more opportunities for cooperation." Zhang Kangyang said.

Ye Yumo nodded, "I'm looking forward to it too."

Such a bland afternoon was full of subtleties and complexities for Ye Yumo.

She successfully maintained her image in social situations, and at the same time made Zhang Kangyang understand that although she had many emotions, she would never be easily influenced by anyone.

This may be the reason why she has been able to maintain herself in the complicated urban life.

Ye Yumo turned around and prepared to leave.

She was still holding the rose given by Zhang Kangyang in her hand. The flower was like her complicated mood at the moment. It was beautiful on the outside but full of tangles on the inside.

Zhang Kangyang walked her to the door, "Well, goodbye, Ms. Ye Yumo."

"Goodbye, Mr. Zhang Kangyang."

Ye Yumo walked out of the door, and the breeze blew across her face, as if telling her that no matter what, life must go on.

She smiled and handed the rose into the secretary's hand.

That night.

Shi Lei was wearing casual clothes and stepping on the soft lawn. Every step he took seemed to be stepping on the doubts in his heart.

He looked up at the sky. White clouds were roaming in the blue sky, as if they were also looking for their own direction.

Ye Yumo walked over with two glasses of juice in hand, and the breeze gently lifted her long skirt.

She smiled and said, "This is my refuge from the world, isn't it nice?" There was a kind of elegance and ease in her tone.

Shi Lei took one of the glasses of juice and seemed to see his current mood through the ice crystals in the glass - cold and chaotic.

He took a toast, and the cold liquid instantly silenced his doubts.

"This place of refuge of yours is indeed refreshing." Shi Lei said in a slightly sarcastic tone.

Ye Yumo smiled, as if he didn't understand the meaning.

She turned and walked towards the depths of the garden, gently touching the rose petals on the roadside with her fingers, as if touching the flow of time.

"The rose garden is one of the highlights here." Ye Yumo stood in front of a blooming red rose and said loudly, "What do you think?"

"Gorgeous, but thorny." Shi Lei's eyes were still deep.

Ye Yumo smiled lightly: "Like people, there is always an untouchable defense hidden under the seemingly gentle appearance."

"Are you talking about yourself?" Shi Lei asked directly.

Ye Yumo chuckled lightly, but did not answer.

She turned her head and looked at the sea in the distance. The rough waves seemed to echo her mood at the moment.

Shi Lei followed closely behind and stood side by side with her on the sea viewing platform of the garden.He looked at the sea, and the turbulent waves and his uneasy mood formed a wonderful resonance.

"Do you think you can escape everything by coming here?" Shi Lei finally spoke, breaking the silence between the two.

Ye Yumo came back to his senses instantly and said calmly: "Escape from the world is not about escaping, but about finding a peaceful land to cleanse your soul."

Shi Lei looked into Ye Yumo's eyes, trying to find the answer from the bottomless look in his eyes.

He sighed softly and put down the juice glass in his hand.

"Hope you find the peace you're looking for," he said.

Ye Yumo smiled and looked at the juice cup in his hand, as if thinking about something.

She suddenly turned around and walked towards a small wooden bridge in the garden, where there was a pond of lotus flowers.

"Maybe you can find some peace here. Besides, I'm not escaping. I want to try to cultivate a relationship with you..." She stood on the wooden bridge and said to Shi Lei.

Shi Lei walked up to her, and their eyes met. For a moment, it seemed as if time had stood still.

Then, Ye Yumo gently placed the juice cup on the corner of the wooden bridge, turned around and walked back to the villa.

Shi Lei stood there without moving for a long time, until the afterglow of the setting sun disappeared at the end of the sea.

He squeezed the juice glass in his hand and suddenly felt that maybe this so-called "retreat from the world" could really bring him a trace of indescribable peace.

Li Bonan walked slowly into the room, holding a delicate wooden box in his hand. Its surface was as smooth as a mirror, and the reflected light and shadow danced around the room.

The surface of this box is engraved with a landscape painting, and the meticulous craftsmanship almost makes people think it is hand-painted.

Ye Yumo sat behind his desk, his hair falling like a waterfall, looking cold and focused.

She looked up at Li Bonan, and then turned her eyes to the wooden box in his hand.

"This is the document you requested." Li Bonan's tone was very calm, as if what he was holding was not an important document that could change the fate of many people, but a lunch list.

Ye Yumo nodded slightly, with a hint of satisfaction in his eyes.

She waved to Li Bonan, "Okay, please step aside first."

"Of course, Mr. Ye." Li Bonan nodded slightly to Shi Lei on the other side of the room, an imperceptible smile flashed across his face, and then slowly exited the room.

Shi Lei was sitting on a leather chair, with complicated eyes as he watched Li Bonan's back disappear behind the door.

He felt that this assistant was not simple, but what he was more concerned about was what was in the box?
Ye Yumo gently opened the wooden box, and the document inside did not disappoint. With exquisite paper and professional printing, this document is definitely a "work of art."

She put the document on the desk and met Shi Lei's eyes.

"You should know that this document is no small matter." Ye Yumo's voice was as cold as ice, completely different from her usual humorous and interesting personality.

Shi Lei raised a complicated smile, "Of course I know, otherwise I wouldn't be sitting here taking time away from my busy life."

"It's well said, time is money, especially for people like us." Ye Yumo opened the document and pointed to one of the points, "Look, there is a very interesting place here."

Shi Lei leaned over to look at it and saw that the document described a complex business plan in detail. He couldn't help but secretly marveled at Ye Yumo's vision and acumen.

"It's really interesting. It will change the economic landscape of the East China Sea."

"To be more precise, it will affect the entire Yumo Group." Ye Yumo closed the document, his eyes blazing.
