Jiang Yanshen came back to his senses. He put down his bowl and lowered his head to hide the unnatural expression on his face. When he looked up again, his expression returned to normal.

He stood up and walked to her side. He stretched his arm out in front of her, his exquisite facial features looking arrogant.

Lin Qingqian’s gaze landed on his arm for a second. Just as her porcelain-white hand reached over, he walked towards the door.

Jiang Yunshen also reacted. “I’ll go with you.”

This was a business cocktail party. Lin Qingqian didn’t know the initiator, but Jiang Yanshen looked very familiar with the other party.

As soon as they arrived at the banquet hall, he threw Lin Qingqian aside and stood with the group of men and women to exchange pleasantries. From time to time, he even flirted with a few fashionable women.

Jiang Yunshen stood beside Lin Qingqian and sneered. “In the past, Big Brother always scolded me for being a silkpants. I think he’s even more of a silkpants than me!”

Lin Qingqian seemed to not sense the gaze that Jiang Yanshen gave her from time to time. She lowered her eyes and said lightly, “Otherwise, how could you be brothers?”

“…” Jiang Yunshen couldn’t help but roll his eyes again. “Damn! Don’t compare me to him. I’m not going to be his brother!”

Lin Qingqian curved her lips and only smiled without saying anything.

“Damn!” Jiang Yunshen suddenly cursed softly. “Why is she here?”

Lin Qingqian followed his gaze and saw Ming Xiao coming in from the door. A dark purple dress floated over, attracting everyone’s attention for a moment.

Ming Xiao came in and scanned the surroundings. In the end, her gaze locked onto Jiang Yanshen and she walked elegantly to his side. “Yanshen…” Her voice was so gentle that it could drip water.

Jiang Yanshen nodded and his thin lips curled up slightly. “You’re here.”

Ming Xiao: “Sorry, I’m late. Did you wait for a long time?”

As she spoke, her hand was already holding Jiang Yanshen’s arm.

Jiang Yanshen lowered his head and smiled at her. “Not long.”

The two of them looked at each other and smiled, causing everyone to be stunned. They looked at Lin Qingqian sympathetically.

The rumors about Director Jiang and Lin Qingqian’s breakup was not groundless. It was true.

“F*ck!” Jiang Yunshen cursed softly and looked at Lin Qingqian sympathetically. “Is he even human? Let’s go…”

He held Lin Qingqian’s hand and was about to leave.

“President Lin…

Lin Qingqian had just turned around when a warm voice came from behind. She turned around and saw Ming Xiao and Jiang Yanshen walking towards her.

Ming Xiao smiled in embarrassment. “I’m sorry. I was late, so Yanshen asked you to be his female companion at the last minute. Now that I’m here, I hope you don’t mind.”

Lin Qingqian glanced at the calm man and said calmly, “Yunshen, do you smell anything?”

“What?” The straight man, Jiang Yunshen, did not react for a moment.

Lin Qingqian looked at Ming Xiao with her clear eyes and said calmly, “The smell of a b*tch.”

Jiang Yunshen immediately reacted and nodded. “Yes, yes, yes! Where did this b*tchy smell come from? I almost vomited.”

Ming Xiao’s face darkened and she subconsciously glanced at the man beside her from the corner of her eye. Seeing that he had no intention of helping her, she suppressed the anger in her heart and smiled elegantly. “President Lin, we’re all adults and have a reputation to maintain. One needs to know their limits.”

Lin Qingqian didn’t buy it and pursed her lips. “Reputation is reserved for those who have it. This request is a little too much for someone who doesn’t have it.” She was scolding them for being shameless.

“Lin Qingqian…” Ming Xiao’s voice deepened. It was obvious that she was already very unhappy.

Lin Qingqian acted as if she did not know. Ignoring the curious gazes from the surroundings, she said indifferently, “Miss Ming likes to pick up things that others don’t want so much. She loves the use of waste. I believe many environmentalists will be very gratified to see her so passionate about environmental protection. ”

As soon as her gentle voice sounded, the expressions of the two people changed. Such straightforward words were unexpected.

“Since Director Jiang only wants me to act as a temporary female companion, now that my mission is completed, I can leave.”

With that, she turned around and left without waiting for Jiang Yanshen to speak.

After all, this was a public place. She did not believe that Jiang Yanshen would really fall out with her in public.

Jiang Yunshen reacted and hurriedly followed, his eyes jumping with excitement. “Damn, damn, damn! Sister-in-law, you’re too cool!”

Originally, Jiang Yanshen had brought her over, but he acted intimately with other women in public and even called Ming Xiao over. It was obvious that he wanted to slap Lin Qingqian’s face and embarrass her.

Who would have thought that not only was she not dealt a blow, but she also counterattacked beautifully? She couldn’t even be bothered to pretend. It was simply…

It was too satisfying!!

Lin Qingqian turned her head to look at him, her face still calm. “I publicly rejected a marriage back then. What’s this? It’s just a small scene. Calm down.”

The way she looked at him seemed to be saying, “Don’t act like you’ve never seen the world.”

Jiang Yunshen: ‘

Jiang Yanshen watched helplessly as she and Jiang Yunshen left. There was a casual smile on his face, and his hands tightened into fists.

The unwillingness in his eyes disappeared.

Ming Xiao let go of his hand and sneered. “Did you see that? She doesn’t care about you at all. She doesn’t care even if you ask me to act!”

Because she did not care, it did not matter it she was acting or not.

“Jiang Yanshen…” Ming Xiao narrowed his eyes, his gaze sharp. “You fell in love with Lin Qingqian.”

Jiang Yanshen turned his head and met her gaze with his black eyes. He snorted coldly and said, “Don’t think too highly of your intelligence. How can I fall in love with a woman that only trash likes!”

“Then how do you explain your recent actions?” Ming Xiao questioned directly.

Jiang Yanshen gritted his teeth and was silent for a moment before saying, “I’m taking revenge on her. She likes that piece of trash so much, so I want her to watch me use the same face to be with another woman! I want her to suffer so much that she wants to die!”

Ming Xiao sneered, her eyes flashing with mockery. “Jiang Yanshen, didn’t you realize that your excuse is simply at the level of kindergarten?”

Jiang Yanshen’s face darkened as he glared at her warningly. “If you don’t want to cooperate with my acting, you can get lost!”

With that, he turned around and left the banquet hall.

He hadn’t achieved his goal tonight, so there was no point in staying.

As for those women, he was even less interested.

Ming Xiao looked at his departing figure and her red lips curled up coldly.

“Jiang Yanshen, one day, I’ll make you lower your head and beg me.”

On the way back, Lin Qingqian remained silent. She turned her head to look at the scenery flashing outside the window, as if she was thinking about something.

Jiang Yunshen wanted to speak a few times, but he swallowed his words.

When they got out of the car and entered the house, Jiang Yunshen couldn’t help but ask, “Are you really fine?”

Lin Qingqian stopped in her tracks and looked at him. Under the moonlight, her small face seemed to have an additional layer of soft light filter. She said casually, “Do you really want something to happen to me?”

“That’s not what I meant.” Jiang Yunshen scratched the back of his head and deliberated. “I’m just worried that you’ll take things too hard. Don’t get sick later and trouble me to find a doctor for you.”

“Although he’s the same person as Ah Yan, I can still tell who the person I love is.” Lin Qingqian curved her lips. “Go to bed early and don’t let your imagination run wild.”

With that, she decisively entered the house.

Jiang Yunshen looked at her thin and thin figure and sighed softly. “I let my imagination run wild because I’m worried about you?”

Lin Qingqian told Jiang Yunshen not to let his imagination run wild, but she couldn’t help but think about it.

Although she could distinguish Jiang Xiao Jiu and Ah Yan very clearly, they were the same person after all. How could she really be indifferent when she saw him being intimate with another woman and seeing him with Ming Xiao, who had hurt her before?

Her fingers gently caressed the necklace around her neck. The fishes kissed each other every minute and second. The sweeter the kiss, the more painful it was when they hurt each other.

Lin Qingqian held the necklace, her heart aching, and she couldn’t fall asleep at all.

She got up and wanted to go downstairs to take a breather. Just as she walked out of the room, she saw that the door not far away was open, and there was light shining on the floor.

Lin Qingqian walked over and saw the auntie wiping the bookshelf carefully with a cloth. “Auntie, why are you still here so late?”

When the auntie heard the sound, she turned to look at her and said with a smile, “Previously, Sir didn’t let me into the study, but I haven’t cleaned it these past few days. I was afraid that there would be dust, so I wiped it since I couldn’t sleep.”

“Leave it to me. Go and rest.”

“How can that do? Madam, you’re still pregnant,” the auntie said worriedly.

“It’s alright, it’s just wiping something.” Lin Qingqian’s lips curved.

Seeing that her attitude was firm, the auntie didn’t insist. “Alright, call me if you need anything.”

Lin Qingqian nodded and took the rag she handed over. She walked to the bookshelf and wiped a thin layer of dust off it.

The auntie turned around three times with every step to confirm that she was fine before walking out of the room.

The bookshelf was in front of her. The upper part needed a ladder to wipe it.

The auntie had already brought the ladder to the side in advance. Lin Qingqian placed the ladder steadily and stepped on it step by step to carefully wipe every corner of the bookshelf.

There were many books on Jiang Yanshen’s bookshelf, ranging topics of ancient history to modern times. When Lin Qingqian saw the unfamiliar titles, she wondered if he would read them.

However, with his busy schedule, he probably did not look at them much. He bought them to confuse people.

Her red lips curled into a smile. When she was about to go down the stairs, her fingers accidentally touched a black box beside her.

She subconsciously wanted to grab it but missed. The box flipped over and countless postcards spilled out and landed on the ground.

Lin Qingqian slowly came down the ladder and squatted down to pick up the box, wanting to pick up the scattered postcards.

A postcard landscape at her feet was London. It looked good. Unexpectedly, Ah Yan had a habit of collecting postcards. She placed the postcard in the box and turned to take the other postcards.

Her fingertips froze in the air above the postcard, and her clear eyes were filled with shocking waves…

The back of the postcard was filled with words she was familiar with.

One, two, three…

The back of each postcard she picked up was filled with a densely written passage. She went to get the one she’d left in the box…

—Qianqian

Familiar words came into view, and for a moment, bitterness filled her entire chest..
