"That's right! "Zhou!" Right now, Lady Zhou was Zhou Xuanqing's only entrustment. She didn't want the foundation that her parents and grandfather had struggled for their entire lives to be broken up, torn apart, and forgotten by the world.

But what to do? No matter what, Zhou Xuanqing was once the young miss of the Zhou family, and he still had a lot of connections. However, as Zhou Xuanqing called out the number one by one, no one was willing to help her. Zhou Xuanqing's fingers unconsciously swiped across the screen of his phone.

Suddenly, a name caught her eye — it was her classmate, Qiao Xuangran. She did not know if she should make this call. Her relationship with Qiao Xuangran was not very close, and they had not been in contact for three years. Zhou Xuanqing did not know if his request for help had brought about any disgrace.

There was no other choice! Zhou Xuanqing believed that those who could help her either did not have the ability or the ability to do so could not do anything about it. Moreover, there were also those who humiliated her with obscenities.

Until now, among all the people Zhou Xuanqing knew, only Qiao Xuangran had not made a call. Zhou Xuanqing seemed to have made some sort of decision, as he tightly pressed his lips, which had turned white with anxiety. He held his breath, his heart thumping, and then closed his eyes and pressed the dial button.

"Du …" "Du …" Every second before he answered the phone, Zhou Xuan Qing felt as if every second was a year, and fine droplets of water had already appeared on his forehead. Perhaps there was something on Qiao Xuangran's side that he was busy with. After a long time, when Zhou Xuanqing thought that Qiao Xuangran wouldn't pick up the phone, the call finally came through.

When Qiao Xuangran's voice came out of the phone, Zhou Xuanqing felt as if the boulder in his heart had dropped to the ground. However, it seemed as if it was hanging even higher than before. Xuan Qing? "What's wrong?"

Zhou Xuanqing didn't expect that Qiao Xuangran would still keep her phone number. She didn't say anything for a long time, so Qiao Xuangran felt as if his phone had broken down. "…" Xuan Ran, can you help me? " Zhou Xuanqing had never asked for anyone in his entire life. Even with so many phone calls just now, none of them had made Zhou Xuanqing nervous. However, when he faced Qiao Xuangran, Zhou Xuanqing became nervous.

She did not know why everyone in her surroundings held their breath as their hearts pounded. Perhaps they subconsciously believed that Qiao Xuangran could help her as long as he was willing.

"Where are you?" Qiao Xuangran could tell from Zhou Xuanqing's tone that something must have happened. Otherwise, with Zhou Xuanqing's personality, he definitely wouldn't have called for help from someone he wasn't too familiar with. Although Qiao Xuangran hadn't spoken to Zhou Xuanqing for a few moments, he had still heard some things about Zhou Xuanqing.

"I'm at the coffee shop downstairs." Zhou Xuanqing knew that Qiao Xuangran was preparing to give him a chance. She took a deep breath, trying her best to calm him down and not be as impatient as before.

"Tell me, what's wrong?" Qiao Xuangran had clearly rushed over while working at the company. He was dressed in a suit and leather shoes and had the bearing of a successful person. As he asked, he calmly draped his suit jacket over the back of his chair.

"Sir, what would you like to drink?" The waiter had a very good eye expression as he brought the dining plate to Qiao Xuanran's side and asked in a low voice.

"A cup of espresso, please."

The aura that Zhou Xuanqing had just gathered disappeared in an instant. Facing Qiao Xuangran, who had an even more imposing aura than three years ago, Zhou Xuanqing felt as if he had been humbled to dust. He didn't deserve to stand next to this person.

All those years ago, the students had all embarked on their own paths, and all of them had achieved great things in the industry. Only she, Zhou Xuanqing, had lost her soul due to the change in events at home. Zhou Xuanqing thought to himself. Hmph, I've really lost myself!

"I want your help." Zhou Xuanqing closed his eyes, and the past flashed before her eyes one by one. When he opened his eyes, it was as if he was the high-spirited Zhou Xuanqing from three years ago. She explained in detail to Qiao Xuangran, "…" "That's it. I hope to have your help. I would be grateful if you could help me through this."

Qiao Xuangran, who was sitting across from him, picked up the cup of coffee and took a sip. His deep eyes hid everything, but his heart couldn't help but feel surprised. That once arrogant and confident classmate of his had actually caused such a thing to happen. From his point of view, he was naturally willing to help. When it came to business, it wasn't a simple matter of him wishing for it. However, he didn't expose any of it.

At this moment, Zhou Xuanqing's heart was in his throat, following Qiao Xuangran's every move. He continuously sized up Qiao Xuanran's expression in order to get a better idea of the situation. The person in front of her was the only way she could keep the Zhou family safe, so she had to get it no matter what. In a business negotiation, Zhou Xueqing was very clear on this principle. Thus, while trying her best to calm herself down, she also thought of the words she could say to convince him otherwise.

After a long moment of silence, Qiao Xuangran raised his head to look at his classmate. He looked very calm on the surface, but his eyes swept over his clenched fists as he coughed and spoke seriously. Xuan Qing, if it's anything else, I can help you directly. You should be well aware of the Zhou family's problems. It isn't just a matter of money. If you need profit, you need a list. Although I manage business in Europe and the United States, I can't make a decision directly. So recently, Mrs. Qiao did have a list of ways she could work with the Zhou family. However, this will require you to come up with a plan, and there will be a meeting with the European and American branches.

As Qiao Xuangran spoke, Zhou Xuanqing clenched his hands even tighter. It was only after the other party had said the last word that she knew he had helped her. However, the short period of time required her to prepare a lot of things and make plans. This was a huge challenge for her. Fortunately, she also prepared things for short periods of time when she was studying in the United States. She was already very familiar with these things when she was helping Hao Qingyu deal with the company and the Zhou family. The only problem was that the current Zhou family was managed by Ji Yun. Right now, she had no one to use her. She was a bit embarrassed, but Qiao Xuangran clearly understood what she was spitting out.

Seeing his old classmate like this, Qiao Xuangran naturally knew why. He was aware of how strong the person in front of him was. His words before were made from a rational point of view and he hoped that she would feel that it wasn't charity but an opportunity. "He spoke as if nothing had happened, as if nothing had happened." After all, this is a partnership with Mrs Qiao, if you need some people's support. You can tell me. Mrs Qiao can provide it. "

Zhou Xuan Qing revealed a smile. She had regained her composure and composure, and looked as confident and confident as she had been just a moment ago. Although this was his only hope of survival, Zhou Xueqing was confident that he would be able to take down this plan. The other party's words had resolved Zhou Xuanqing's urgent matter. Although the other party's words were gentle and reasonable, Zhou Xuanqing was still able to feel that these words were from a classmate, and thus he spoke with sincerity. Thank you, Xuan Ran. "Thank you very much."

Finished with their business, Qiao Xuangran and Zhou Xuanqing were clearly much more relaxed as they resumed their friendly greetings. Of course, during this sort of conversation, Qiao Xuangran had asked the questions he had wanted to ask or cared about during the exchange. He could not help but sigh with emotion. At the same time, he also gained confidence in their cooperation. She was more mature and rational than before. This was probably due to her having spent a lot of time with him. Suddenly, the secretary's call interrupted their conversation. Qiao Xuangran looked at Zhou Xuanqing apologetically. "Sorry about that, I still have things to do so I'll be leaving first."

Zhou Xuanqing shook his head, indicating that he didn't mind. He then accepted the contact details from Qiao Xuangran's subordinates. Zhou Xuan Qing rejected the thought of giving it to him. After Zhou Xuanqing and Qiao Xuangran left, they arrived at the office. As they passed by the meeting room, they happened to hear the various directors express their dissatisfaction over a portion of the Zhou family's purchase. Although it was only because of the profits, it was still a good idea for Zhou Xuan Qing to spend more time preparing for it.

Zhou Xueqing was seated at his desk, facing a large amount of documents and content. He looked to be in high spirits. When she looked up again, a long time had passed. She looked at the time and saw that it was time to get off work. Thinking of the person who went on the date, he thought that he probably wouldn't be back today. In that case, Zhou Xuanqing would just order the takeout and continue working at the Zhou house.

All of this was witnessed by his colleagues at the company. They asked Zhou Xuanqing if he needed any help. Zhou Xuanqing raised his head and waved goodbye to the crowd, rejecting their offer of help. Although he knew that the other party had good intentions, he had to wait until the end of the business to keep his job a secret.

After sorting out the documents and making a rough outline of the plan, it was already 9 o'clock in the evening. Zhou Xuanqing walked down from the company building and looked at the company building by himself. Suddenly, a feeling of loneliness arose from the bottom of his heart. Perhaps at night it was easy to be sentimental and reminiscent of the past. Exhaustion and psychological pressure had caused Zhou Xuanqing to lose his disguise, and he was able to clearly see that she looked much more haggard than before. Only, she was not yet qualified to be exhausted. The ringing of the phone and the name's name had caused Zhou Xueqing to be even more upset. After he answered the phone, the other party's question clearly contained a hint of annoyance. Zhou Xuanqing concealed everything, using the excuse of shopping as a pretense. Maybe it was because Hao Qingyu had something else on his mind, but he didn't let it go. Instead, he told her about coming to pick her up.

Perhaps it was because Zhou Xuan Qing didn't want him to suspect anything, he simply agreed to return to his nearby shopping mall and drove to it in advance. Not long after, a phone call with that person appeared in front of Zhou Xuan Qing. Hao Qingyu looked indifferent.

He held Zhou Xuanqing's hand as they strolled around the shopping mall. However, it was different from when Ji Yun was shopping. He could always judge what she liked and his gaze would always follow Zhou Xuanqing's every move. This is no longer a coping shopping, it looks more like a couple in love. However, the excitement from the crowd had clearly made Hao Qingyu feel a little annoyed.

Although Zhou Xuan Qing did not have the same thoughts as before, he would occasionally think about it. However, the temperature and serenity between his fingers seemed to have returned to the past. His gentle gaze was directed in the direction of his world. Such gentleness and consideration always made Zhou Xuanqing unable to extricate himself. Zhou Xuanqing warned himself that this man had nothing to do with him. The Zhou family was the one who had the most to do with him. Her absent-mindedness was noticed by the people beside her, and her eyes couldn't help but darken.
