After parking the car, Jiang Zhi checked his phone.

However, he did not call Qiao Chu.

elder brother?!

Where did she get a brother?

Isn't the Qiao family just her and Qiao Nuan?

Judging from their voices and tones, Qiao Chu and that man seemed quite close; were they merely so-called siblings?

With a snort, Jiang Zhi put his phone away and got out of the car.

There has still been no reply to the WeChat message.

His handsome face was covered with a layer of frost.

...

Jiang Zhi had only been sitting for a short while when Nangong Jin arrived.

He glared coldly at Nangong Jin.

What are you doing here?

Nangong Jin grinned mischievously, "Didn't you say you'd buy me a drink?"

"You're talking too much nonsense, cancel it."

"Since I'm here, let's set up a stage together, it'll be good to have company!"

Jiang Zhi remained silent, giving Nangong Jin a cold glance.

This guy is fucking asking for a beating!

...

After ordering, Nangong Jin looked at Jiang Zhi with a roguish grin.

Where is your wife?

Jiang Zhi glared at Nangong Jin, finding her increasingly irritating. "Can't I have my own space? Do I have to be with her?"

"I stepped on a landmine, I could smell the gunpowder."

"I didn't ask you to come! If you want to drink, shut up and stop talking nonsense!"

"Who upset you?"

"you!"

"Let me tell you, I'm the only one who can tolerate your awful temper!"

"If you don't speak, no one will think you're mute!"

"Want me to find you a few girls to keep you company?"

"Neuropathy!"

Nangong Jin's smile deepened, and she poured herself some whiskey.

"I thought you would drink beer or red wine, but you ordered whiskey. You're acting very strangely today."

"I didn't ask you to drink!"

"You're so stingy! I can't even say a few words to you, or make a joke!"

"You should go back and take care of the children."

"I think you need me to keep you company tonight."

Jiang Zhi rolled his eyes at Nangong Jin, picked up his glass, and took a sip of whiskey.

The spicy liquor burned down his throat and into his stomach, and he felt comfortable.

"Don't get drunk, or I won't take you home!"

Do you know more about wine than I do?

"We know you're the king of the liquor industry now! Come on, let's clink glasses and celebrate your acquisition of absolute control. Rumors are circulating that you're the CEO of Dongyang Group—how ​​impressive!"

Jiang Zhi didn't say anything, but clinked glasses with Nangong Jin.

My grandfather has long been retired. In fact, he handles most of the affairs of Dongyang Group and makes the decisions.

Even if there are disagreements at home, he cannot involve Dongyang Group in the matter.

...

Night was falling.

The music bars are packed with people.

There are also more and more beautiful women.

Some women looking for targets, taking advantage of the other person being a little drunk, also started to strike up conversations with them, hoping to snag a rich husband.

Nangong Jin and Jiang Zhi, two men of extraordinary status, naturally became the focus of attention.

Women kept approaching them to chat.

Some women are quite bold.

Thinking she was somewhat attractive and would make a good impression, she sat on the armrest of the chair as soon as she arrived, deliberately rubbing against it.

She even took the initiative to put her arm around Jiang Zhi's neck.

In an instant, Jiang Zhi forcefully grabbed the unruly woman's wrist.

As if he wanted to crush her hand bones, he mercilessly increased the force, and even when the woman frowned in pain, he still wouldn't let go.

The warning was uttered coldly through clenched teeth.

"Get out! Don't make me say another word!"

Jiang Zhi's eyes were extremely cold and unfathomable; his expression was so gloomy that many women were frightened away.

That extremely arrogant woman also hurriedly fled in panic.

...

Nangong Jin's carefree and handsome face was full of smiles.

Two women were sitting next to him, creating a stark contrast to Jiang Zhi, who was all alone.

Nangong Jin teased, "Zhi, aren't you being too fierce?"

Jiang Zhi said disdainfully, "You... are just a bastard!"

"Married men are different; they only have their wives in their eyes."

"Can you even compare to me? A bastard like you is better off living a lonely life!"

"Oh... such a devoted man! It seems Qiao Chu has put a lot of effort into training you!"

"Keep showing off, and when you crash and burn, I'll make you a trending topic."

Nangong Jin chuckled, "It's just a few drinks with a woman, and you're already spouting nonsense. How boring!"

Jiang Zhi lit a cigarette and started smoking.

He exhaled a puff of smoke and then spat.

"You bastard deserves a beating!"

"You're too serious! Never mind, I won't tease you anymore."

"After you finish this drink, I'm leaving. You can do whatever you want with it. Gu Changge making the right choice by leaving you is absolutely the right one!"

Instantly, Nangong Jin's smile froze, and she glared at Jiang Zhi.

His face also darkened.

Jiang Zhi sneered and said, "You're not convinced? You don't like her either, so why were you so mean and cruel to her? What's the big deal? Besides, two years have passed. Maybe she has a boyfriend now and has started a new life. You should let go of those grudges."

Nangong Jin glared at the two women beside her, and instantly, they left.

Jiang Zhi is so boring. He brought up that woman Gu Changge again. What a downer!

"You bastard, you're the one who deserves a beating!"

"Are you being so sensitive? You won't even let me mention a name."

Nangong Jin casually picked up a cigarette, put it in his mouth, lit it, and started smoking.

He squinted and stared at Jiang Zhi.

"I'm sensitive? You try being schemed against by a woman and see what happens! If it weren't for her, would I be where I am today? You're not much better off than me! Qiao Chu marrying you is pure luck!"
