Embarrassing.

That's so embarrassing.

In broad daylight, under the watchful eyes of everyone, Han Sinian is nagging me like this. What will become of my innocence?

Under Qin Wan's aggrieved gaze and hearing her familiar thoughts in his mind, Jiang Yan couldn't help but curl the corners of his lips into a smile.

"There's no misunderstanding," Jiang Yan reassured him.

Upon hearing this, Qin Wan's eyes brightened, but a faint unease still lingered in them.

It doesn't matter whether others misunderstand or not, I don't care about their opinions anyway.

Seeing the faint expectation in Qin Wan's eyes, a hint of helplessness appeared in Jiang Yan's eyes.

“I believe you,” Jiang Yan said. “When I brought Han Sinian back to China, I learned about his situation.”

"Although I don't know the specific details of what happened between the two of you, I know why Han Sinian is stuck abroad."

"Because you don't like him."

Upon hearing this, the unease in Qin Wan's eyes vanished instantly.

"Yes, yes, I really don't like Han Sinian." Qin Wan nodded repeatedly like a chick pecking at rice, looking as if she was afraid that Jiang Yan would misunderstand.

Seeing this, Jiang Yan smiled and raised her eyebrows. Han Sinian, on the other hand, seemed to have heard but was staring at Qin Wan with a flushed face and a resentful expression.

He looks exactly like a resentful husband...

Seeing this, Qin Wan glared at him irritably, "What are you looking at? I've never liked you in the first place!"

Even if the original owner liked you, it was all due to your scheming. She was young, naive, and inexperienced, and mistakenly believed that the sweet talk and tricks of a scumbag were true love.

"Qin, Wan!!!"

It's already painful to love someone you can't have.

But Qin Wan went to great lengths to distance herself from her ex-boyfriend, Jiang Yan, who came later in the relationship.

She completely denied all the good things of the past.

His existence seemed to have become a stain on her life.

It was Jiang Nanyu who betrayed and let her down.

Although he schemed against her, he later treated her with genuine affection...

As he pondered, Han Sinian poured out his grievances with a resentful expression.

Upon hearing this, Qin Wan, Jiang Yan, and Xie Ming looked at him with mixed feelings.

"If that weren't the case, why would you be able to stand here safely?" Jiang Yan gently reminded him.

Upon hearing this, Han Sinian looked slightly bewildered, raising his eyes to stare straight at Jiang Yan, as if he did not understand what he meant.

In the end, Xie Ming couldn't stand it anymore and gently patted Han Sinian on the shoulder.

"Dude, drink less. Your brain isn't very sharp to begin with, so don't let alcohol ruin it."

Han Sinian narrowed his eyes, staring at him with a dangerous look.

Seeing that he tightened his grip on the wine glass, Xie Ming wisely released his shoulder and snatched the glass away with a grin.

"Anger is bad for your health."

"If you really don't want to know the truth, I can keep quiet."

Xie Ming was certain that he wouldn't miss any information related to Qin Wan, so he stood to the side with a smile, unhurried.

Han Sinian pursed his thin lips, looking humiliated and unwilling to submit.

Seeing this, Xie Ming's smile deepened.

Qin Wan, however, felt something was a little strange about the scene before her...

She leaned closer to Jiang Yan, her face full of curiosity as she asked, "Is there something going on between Xie Ming and Han Sinian?"

Jiang Yan's lips twitched, and she looked at her with helplessness in her eyes, "Xie Ming's sexual orientation is fine."

"As for Han Sinian... you know him best, don't you?"

Upon hearing this, Qin Wan's eyes flickered, and she became slightly more serious, "Do the two of them have a grudge?"

After a brief silence, Jiang Yan nodded. "I guess so."

"I've heard Xie Ming mention it before, but not in great detail, so I'm not entirely sure about it either."

"I only have a vague idea of ​​what's going on. They've definitely been scheming against each other since they were little, and they can't stand seeing each other doing well."

Upon hearing this, Qin Wan nodded to indicate that she understood.

"Han Sinian should be responsible for the word 'calculation'."

"The behavior of being unable to bear seeing the other party do well should be attributed to Xie Ming."

Upon hearing this, a faint smile appeared in Jiang Yan's eyes.

"The auction is about to begin." Qin Wan looked at the people who were gradually gathering in the seating area.

"Let's go, we should head over there too."

"good."

Qin Wan and Jiang Yan were seated together, in pairs.

Xie Ming was assigned to stand beside Han Sinian and keep an eye on him to prevent Han Sinian from having a relapse.

Jiangnan Yu... sat alone in one place.

Looking at the seating arrangement, Qin Wan's eyes revealed a hint of surprise.

"The organizers of this charity gala..." are quite something.

The seating arrangement...

Thinking of this, Qin Wan subconsciously looked up at Jiang Yan.

Seeing this, Jiang Yan was about to ask her what was wrong when a familiar voice echoed in his mind.

Something's not right.

Something's really wrong.

There's something fishy about the seating arrangement by the organizers.

Could it be that the organizers of the charity gala know Jiang Yan?

Thinking of this, Qin Wan stared at Jiang Yan with a probing look in her eyes.

Jiang Yan: "..." She really is... meticulous.

"What's wrong?" Even though he already knew what Qin Wan was thinking, Jiang Yan still followed the usual procedure and asked with concern to complete the act.

"I was just thinking that the organizers seem to be able to read minds, as they actually knew which seat I wanted the most."

Mind reading...

Upon hearing those three words, Jiang Yan's eyes flickered.

She dares to guess, knows how to guess, and guesses accurately.

"I asked Xie Ming to help arrange it," Jiang Yan said.

"Xie Ming?"

"He knows the organizers of the charity gala?" Qin Wan asked in surprise.

"Hmm... I heard we fought together." Jiang Yan thought for a moment and answered seriously.

Qin Wan: "..."

"So you know him too?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yan looked up at her in surprise, seemingly not expecting her to ask such a question.

"Yes." However, he didn't hide it from her.

"Is there something magical or special about your village?" Qin Wan suddenly asked with a complicated expression.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yan looked at her with a puzzled expression, seemingly not understanding why she asked such a question.

"One is Xie Ming, another is the main organizer of a charity gala, and then there's you, the eldest son of the Jiang family who was switched out..."

"I'm just curious about what's so special or magical about this village that allows so many talented people to emerge from it."

Jiang Yan seemed to have thought of something, and a faint smile flashed across his eyes.

"It's probably because... there's a good teacher in the village."

"Teacher?" Qin Wan was taken aback.

Jiang Yan looked at her, a slight smile playing on his lips, and said softly, "Would you like to hear my story?"

Upon hearing this, Qin Wan's eyes lit up, "I want to!"

"After Jiang Nanyu and I were switched, we were thrown into that mountain village. Luckily, our adoptive father picked us up and took us back."

"My adoptive father was a teacher. He was very knowledgeable and devoted himself to teaching all his students, even at the cost of his own life..."

"Of course, the adoptive father's efforts were also rewarded accordingly."

"His students did not disappoint him, and each of them achieved remarkable success."

"Some of them have struggled in the business world, some have devoted themselves to medical research, and some have chosen to return home to inherit their family fortunes..."
