In October, the undercurrent in the United States was as bleak as the autumn wind, but a sudden discovery shook the heart of the entire country like thunder.

While investigating the online misconduct of Anthony Weiner, the husband of Huma Aberdeen, federal investigators accidentally touched upon a corner forgotten by time - the unsolved mysteries of Hillary's tenure as Secretary of State, quietly reappearing in the world along with forgotten emails.

These emails are not just a simple pile of words. They carry the secrets and decisions made by Hillary during her tenure. Some of the emails are "old accounts" that she believes have sunk into the long river of history and no one will ask about them anymore.

However, as fate would have it, they had nowhere to hide under the searchlights of the relevant departments.

James Comey, at the height of this campaign, made a decision that shocked the entire country:
He restarted the in-depth investigation into the "email gate incident"!

This move, which came less than a week before Election Day, undoubtedly dropped a bombshell on the already turbulent election situation.

Critics have accused James Comey of being "partial" and paving a "shortcut" for Hillary's strong opponent. On the other hand, supporters hold high the banner of justice, believing that this is a defense of the dignity of the law and that there can be no compromise.

The balance of public opinion began to subtly tilt in this turmoil.

Ivanka's father's support rate rose rapidly like fallen leaves blown up by the autumn wind; while Hillary felt unprecedented pressure, and cracks appeared in her support camp.

This election, which has attracted worldwide attention, seems to be shrouded in a fog, making it difficult to see the future direction.

Hillary and her team were filled with anger and helplessness in the face of this sudden crisis. They accused Comey of illegally interfering in the election process and questioned his motives and fairness. Ivanka, on the other hand, seized the opportunity to hype up Hillary's moral flaws and legal issues in an attempt to change voters' views.

As the campaign draws to a close, American society is shrouded in an indescribable sense of fatigue. Voters are tired of this controversial and negative election, and they long for a leader who can lead the country out of trouble and into the future.

However, at this critical moment, issues such as the gap between the rich and the poor, social inequality and political corruption linger like ghosts in the shadow of the election, reminding people of the challenges and difficulties facing the country.

In this war without gunpowder, every participant is fighting for his or her own goal. The final result will determine the future direction of the United States and whether the country can usher in a brighter future.

Zhao Zixuan has been paying close attention to the final outcome of this election, because it not only affects whether Heguang Technology Group can successfully gain a foothold overseas, but also whether he can ring the bell on the Nasdaq.

In the CEO office on the top floor of TikTok's headquarters building in Los Angeles, the soft light is like delicate silk, gently covering every corner, interweaving with the starry city night view outside the window to form a breathtaking picture.

Mao Yourong, wearing a well-tailored professional suit, outlines her graceful figure, and her back reveals an indescribable sexiness and power.

She stood there, like an elf dancing with the city, independent and charming.

"The results will be revealed tomorrow morning. How confident are you?"

Her voice was gentle and confident, with a hint of imperceptible anticipation.

When he turned around, those bright eyes seemed to be able to see into people's hearts, and they met Zhao Zixuan's deep gaze in the air. It was a tacit understanding and trust that could be understood without much words.

A faint and confident smile appeared on the corner of Zhao Zixuan's mouth. He slowly walked towards Mao Yourong. The distance between them narrowed silently until they stood side by side.

They looked out at the night scenery of the city together. The atmosphere was somewhat ambiguous, yet seemed very comfortable and harmonious.

"Tomorrow's results will not only be a validation of our efforts, but also an important test of the globalization strategy of Heguang Technology. No matter what the result is, we have already made every effort and have no regrets."

Zhao Zixuan's voice was steady and powerful, revealing the temperament of a leader.

Mao Yourong was attracted by his temperament and couldn't help but look at him twice more. After realizing her mistake, she quickly changed the subject and said, "By the way, are you really planning to marry into the Li family? Have you ever thought about what would happen to He Jieyu if you marry into the Li family?"

Zhao Zixuan was slightly stunned, obviously not expecting Mao Yourong to suddenly bring up this topic, but he quickly regained his composure, looking out the window calmly, as if thinking about something.

Mao Yourong couldn't help but ask, "Why don't you say anything? Don't you know how to answer?"

Zhao Zixuan shook his head slightly and said thoughtfully: "Have you forgotten? I am a non-marriage advocate. Marriage has no meaning at all for someone like me."

Mao Yourong was surprised by Zhao Zixuan's response. She raised her eyebrows, and a hint of curiosity and confusion flashed in her eyes.

"Are you serious? I thought you had changed your mind. After all, Li Yanning is so outstanding in every way. Aren't you afraid that she will be snatched away by other men? Also, have you considered your mother's opinion? If she knew that you didn't plan to get married for the rest of your life, are you sure you can stay out of it?"

When Zhao Zixuan heard this, his eyes narrowed slightly, as if he was weighing something.

He sighed softly, with a hint of helplessness in his tone: "I am indeed a non-marriageist. This is a decision I made after careful consideration. I have my own understanding and views on marriage, and it is not an indispensable part of my life plan. I admire Li Yanning's excellence, but the relationship between her and me is not based on marriage."

He turned to look at Mao Yourong, his eyes revealing sincerity and frankness, "As for my mother, I have always kept her expectations of me in mind. But I also hope that she can understand that my life is my own and I have the right to choose the lifestyle I want. Of course, I will try my best to communicate with her and let her know that my decision is not made lightly."

Mao Yourong raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, "Then, what about He Jieyu?"

Zhao Zixuan took a deep breath and continued, "He Jieyu, she has an irreplaceable place in my heart. No matter how the outside world changes, our relationship will not be affected. I will protect her in my own way."

Mao Yourong chuckled and said, "Do you know what it means to be greedy? You are so greedy, aren't you afraid that in the end, it will all be in vain?"

Zhao Zixuan looked at Mao Yourong meaningfully. He understood that there was a hint of ridicule and reminder in the other person's words, but he also firmly believed in his own feelings and decision.

He said: "Everyone's emotions and values ​​are different. For me, He Jieyu has always been very important. If possible, I am even willing to give everything for her because I believe our feelings are real and pure."

Zhao Zixuan's answer was full of confidence, which made Mao Yourong's mouth corners slightly rise.

She sighed softly, and a complex emotion flashed in her eyes. She recognized Zhao Zixuan's feelings, but also worried about the difficulties he might encounter in the future.

"You are always like this. Once you decide on something, you go all out, regardless of the consequences. I admire your courage. But you also know that the road of love is never smooth, especially when it comes to complex factors such as family and interests. It is even more difficult."

Mao Yourong reminded him earnestly, "Don't forget, the family behind He Jieyu is not someone you can easily mess with."

Zhao Zixuan's expression became serious when he heard this.

He knew that Mao Yourong's reminder was not groundless, and the family behind He Jieyu did have power and influence that could not be ignored. But he also understood that the relationship between him and He Jieyu was not based on family or interests, but on mutual sincerity and understanding.

"The He family is not easy to mess with, but am I easy to mess with? I am not a soft persimmon that can be bullied by everyone."

There was a subtle stubbornness and confidence in Zhao Zixuan's words. He knew very well that the relationship between him and He Jieyu was pure and sincere, and could not be tainted by any external factors.

He was not unprepared for the challenges that the He family might bring, but had already prepared various plans and possibilities in his mind.

He stared at Mao Yourong's bright amber eyes, smiled and joked: "Besides, I have a powerful partner like you. We are allies! You won't just watch me fight alone, right?"

Mao Yourong's eyes flashed with a smile, and his tone was a bit joking and serious: "Don't worry, as your partner, I will of course fully support you. However, you have to take it easy and don't really poke a hole in the sky. I may not be able to help you make up for it when the time comes."

Zhao Zixuan laughed when he heard that, and the atmosphere instantly became relaxed and joyful.

Just at this moment, there was a knock on the office door, and it sounded like Stella was waiting outside.

Mao Yourong casually called out "Come in", and then Stella pushed the door open and walked in. She was wearing a professional shirt and a sexy hip skirt that fitted her figure, looking capable and elegant. She had a professional smile on her face, her eyes swept between Zhao Zixuan and Mao Yourong, and then she nodded respectfully to the two of them.

"Mr. Zhao, Mr. Mao, I have an urgent document that needs your review."

Stella's voice was clear and powerful, revealing her usual professionalism.

Upon hearing this, Mao Yourong and Zhao Zixuan quickly put away the smiles on their faces and returned to their usual seriousness and earnestness.

They exchanged a look and motioned for Stella to hand over the document.

Stella walked to the desk, gently placed the folder in her hand on the table, then stepped aside and waited for instructions from the two presidents.

Zhao Zixuan took the lead in picking up the folder, opened the first page, and began to read it carefully. Mao Yourong followed closely behind. The two of them sometimes lowered their heads in deep thought, and sometimes raised their heads to exchange opinions. The whole office was filled with a tense and orderly working atmosphere.

Stella stood aside, quietly observing the work status of the two presidents. She knew her role in the team very well, which was to do her job well and provide the most powerful support to the two presidents.

As the content of the document gradually deepened, the discussion between Zhao Zixuan and Mao Yourong became more and more intense. But no matter how the topic changed, they could remain calm and rational, and solve the problem with a professional attitude and accurate judgment.

Finally, Zhao Zixuan closed the folder and looked at Mao Yourong. Both of their eyes were filled with determination and confidence.

"Let's execute this plan. Once the election results come out tomorrow, we will start to push forward our listing plan with all our strength. I believe we will succeed."

Zhao Zixuan said.

Mao Yourong nodded in agreement.

"Okay, then it's decided. Stella, go and arrange the relevant matters immediately and make sure everything goes smoothly."

She instructed Stella.

Stella heard this and immediately responded: “Yes, Mr. Mao. I’ll do it right away.”

After saying that, she turned and left the office and started to get busy.

When they were the only two people left in the room, Mao Yourong suddenly looked at Zhao Zixuan and said seriously, "Actually, I think Stella and Zhang Lei are a good match. What do you think?"

Zhao Zixuan shook his head slightly. "It's useless no matter how well-matched they are. When you are in love, you can make the decision together, but once you talk about marriage, it's hard to last without the support of both families..."

He used to think that as long as two people loved each other, it would be enough. However, the reality and the bloody examples before him told him that a marriage without family support would not have any result.

Mao Yourong narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Look, aren't you very clear in your mind? This is what it means when a bystander sees clearly, but a participant is confused."

Zhao Zixuan realized later that she might be making a veiled reference to his relationship with He Jieyu and Li Yanning.

But he was not shaken at all. Instead, he smiled and responded cynically: "How can it be the same?"

Mao Yourong looked at Zhao Zixuan's signature smile, feeling both helpless and understanding. She probably understood Zhao Zixuan's emotional complexity and entanglement, and also understood that his response at this moment might just be a way to escape from his current emotional situation.

Haha, this is what a man is!

Zhao Zixuan didn't want to dwell on this issue, so he changed the subject and said, "Don't talk about me, talk about you. I've always been curious, why do you, such an outstanding woman, never have a boyfriend? Don't you have any physical needs?"

Zhao Zixuan's sudden question stunned Mao Yourong. She didn't expect Zhao Zixuan to touch on her private life so directly.

Her face darkened slightly, but she quickly regained her composure.

"Don't you think your question is a little personal and impolite?"

Mao Yourong's tone revealed a hint of displeasure. "Everyone has different lifestyles and values. I can't be questioned for not having physical needs or anything else just because I don't have a boyfriend. I believe that a person's value does not lie in whether she has a partner, but in whether she can live independently and confidently and pursue her own dreams and goals."

Zhao Zixuan realized his slip of the tongue and quickly apologized: "Sorry, I was abrupt. I have no ill intentions, I was just simply curious."

Mao Yourong shook her head slightly, indicating that she didn't mind: "It's okay, I know you didn't mean it. However, I hope we can all respect each other's private lives and not speculate or comment on them at will."

Zhao Zixuan nodded in agreement.

But he was also increasingly curious about what kind of man could conquer this proud woman like a peacock. (End of this chapter)
