During the period when the company went public, she was so busy that she slept less than three hours a day for a whole month.

Alcohol and coffee ruined her stomach, while long hours of high-intensity work completely drained her body.

That's why in her past life, after her health collapsed, she had to leave the company and was completely sidelined by Qin Haiyang. Everything she worked so hard for ended up benefiting others.

So she cherished her life and avoided smoking, drinking, and coffee whenever possible.

Tong Xuejiao habitually lit a cigarette.

She took only one puff, and looking at Jiang Qiaoqiao's fair and tender face, she suddenly remembered that Huo Beixiao had once said that Jiang Qiaoqiao didn't like the smell of smoke.

She stubbed out her cigarette and said with a smile, "Actually, it's nothing. The reason I said I would compete with you for him was simply because I felt that someone like you, a parasitic vine, was not good enough for him."

But after that trip to the provincial capital, I realized you're a perfect match for him, a very good match indeed!

Jiang Qiaoqiao's imposing manner when she was drinking that day remained fresh in her memory. In that instant, she felt that Jiang Qiaoqiao and Huo Beixiao were actually the same kind of people.

Jiang Qiaoqiao took a sip of water and didn't say anything.

Tong Xuejiao smiled and said, "Jiang Qiaoqiao, although I'm not going to fight you for him anymore, remember this: I watched him grow up, and I won't allow him to be ruined by a woman. So, if you treat him badly or are no longer good enough for him, I'll still take him away!"

Before Jiang Qiaoqiao could speak, she suddenly heard a mocking voice behind her, "Look at you, so capable, who do you think you can steal from?"

Jiang Qiaoqiao felt that the voice was somewhat familiar. When she turned around, she saw Yan Heqing looking at Tong Xuejiao with a mocking expression.

Tong Xuejiao's calm expression instantly changed, and she even looked a little exasperated. "Why are you everywhere? I said you've already sold that piece of land to us, why don't you get back to Haicheng? What are you doing still staying in this small county town?"

After Tong Xuejiao finished speaking, she suddenly remembered something and looked at Yan Heqing with a proud expression, "Hey Yan, your company hasn't gone bankrupt, has it?"
