What he wanted to see most was seeing Ning Nanxue relax.

"I'm glad you like it. Come often when you have time." Jiang Tingchen said naturally.

"Hmm." Ning Nanxue responded softly and continued to taste the dessert.

The atmosphere between the two was warm and comfortable, as if they were a couple who had been together for many years.

However, this tranquility was soon broken by a sudden phone ring.

Ning Nanxue picked up the phone and saw the caller ID: it was Secretary Chen.

She frowned slightly and picked up the phone.

"Mr. Ning, Mr. Fu seems to be asking about your cooperation with Huayun Group." Secretary Chen's voice was solemn on the other end of the phone.

Ning Nanxue's smile disappeared in an instant, replaced by a cold look.

"Ask?" She asked back in a light tone with a hint of sarcasm.

"Yes, he seems to be checking who is the person who is in contact with you at Huayun Group." Secretary Chen continued.

A trace of disgust flashed in Ning Nanxue's eyes.

It turns out that Fu Chen is still a thief with evil intentions and his ghost is still lingering around.

"Don't pay attention to him, let him investigate." Ning Nanxue said in a cold tone and hung up the phone directly.

Jiang Tingchen looked at Ning Nanxue's face, which had instantly turned cold, and asked with concern, "What's wrong? What happened?"

Ning Nanxue put down her phone, took a deep breath, and tried to calm herself down.

"Fu Chen is asking about my cooperation with Huayun Group. It seems he is still unwilling to give up." Ning Nanxue explained calmly, but the coldness in her eyes did not diminish at all.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Tingchen frowned slightly, and a hint of anger flashed in his eyes.

Fu Chen is really a lingering ghost, constantly pestering Ning Nanxue.

"Don't worry about him, Xue'er. I'm here and won't let him hurt you again." Jiang Tingchen said in a firm tone, holding Ning Nanxue's hand and giving her strength.

Ning Nanxue felt the warmth in Jiang Tingchen's palm, and her heart calmed down a little.

She held Jiang Tingchen's hand and said gratefully, "Thank you, Tingchen, for always being by my side."

Jiang Tingchen's eyes were gentle as he stared at Ning Nanxue and said softly, "Silly girl, thank you for everything. I'm willing to do anything for you."

On the other side, Fu Chen was pacing anxiously in the office.

Secretary Chen's report made him even more certain that there must be someone backing Ning Nanxue.

And this person is most likely from Huayun Group.

"Ning Nanxue, you are really capable. You found a new backer so quickly." Fu Chen said gritting his teeth, the flame of jealousy burning in his heart.

He couldn't bear it. After Ning Nanxue left him, she actually lived a better and more prosperous life than before.

"I must find out who this backer is!" A hint of viciousness flashed in Fu Chen's eyes. He picked up the phone again and called Secretary Chen.

"Keep investigating. I want to know who is the person who coordinated with Ning Nanxue on the cooperation project with Huayun Group!" Fu Chen ordered in a cold tone, with a hint of unquestionable majesty.

Secretary Chen received Fu Chen's order and smiled in his heart, but responded respectfully: "Yes, President Fu, I will find out as soon as possible."

Xu Zhiru returned to Fu Chen's villa from the hospital.

She originally thought that after experiencing the suicide incident, Fu Chen would be more gentle and considerate to her and cherish her more.

However, reality gave her a heavy blow.

Fu Chen was still cold and distant towards her, even more indifferent than before.

The atmosphere in the villa was depressing and cold.

Xu Zhiru walked carefully to Fu Chen and said softly, "Ah Chen, I'm back."

Fu Chen just glanced at her indifferently, without even a single extra glance.

"Yeah." He responded perfunctorily and continued to work on the documents, as if Xu Zhiru was just an insignificant stranger.

Xu Zhiru's heart sank to the bottom in an instant, and a chill ran from the soles of her feet to the top of her head.

Fu Chen's attitude made her feel uneasy and panicked.

"Ah Chen, I still feel very uncomfortable. The doctor said I need to rest well, but... but I am alone in the villa and I am so scared." Xu Zhiru said softly, trying to win Fu Chen's sympathy.

Fu Chen finally raised his head and glanced at Xu Zhiru, but there was no trace of pity or tenderness in his eyes, but rather a hint of impatience.

"If you're scared, let the nanny accompany you. I'm very busy and don't have time to take care of you." Fu Chen said in a cold tone, then lowered his head again and continued to deal with documents.

Xu Zhiru's face turned pale in an instant, and tears welled up in her eyes.

Fu Chen was so cold to her that he didn't even want to say a word of comfort.

Since Fu Chen is so jealous of Ning Nanxue, she will use Fu Chen's jealousy to deal with Ning Nanxue.

She wanted Fu Chen to see with his own eyes how Ning Nanxue had "betrayed" him and how "fickle" she was.

On the weekend, Jiang Tingchen invited Ning Nanxue to relax at a resort in the suburbs.

"Xue'er, you've been too tired these days. Let's go to a resort in the suburbs to relax and unwind on the weekend." Jiang Tingchen suggested gently, his eyes full of concern.

Ning Nanxue hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded.

These days, she really felt physically and mentally exhausted and needed to relax.

Moreover, going to the resort with Jiang Tingchen seems to be a good choice.

"Okay, then let's go to the resort and relax." Ning Nanxue responded softly, with a hint of anticipation on her face.

When Jiang Tingchen saw Ning Nanxue agreed, a happy smile appeared on his face.

He immediately began to arrange all matters at the resort, so that Ning Nanxue could have a happy and unforgettable weekend.

Fu Chen learned through his own channels that Ning Nanxue would be going to a suburban resort at the weekend.

What is Ning Nanxue doing at the resort?

Could it be that she was having a tryst with her "backer"?

Once this thought came into being, it grew wildly in Fu Chen's heart like weeds and could no longer be suppressed.

Xu Zhiru noticed Fu Chen's abnormality and immediately came over and asked with concern: "Ah Chen, what's wrong with you? Why do you look so bad?"

When Fu Chen saw Xu Zhiru, his anger grew even stronger.

He grabbed Xu Zhiru's arm and said in a gloomy tone: "Zhiru, do you know? Ning Nanxue, that bitch, is going to the resort this weekend!"

When Xu Zhiru heard this, she was delighted and knew that the opportunity had come.

She pretended to be surprised and asked, "Resort? What is she doing at the resort?"

Fu Chen sneered and said in a mocking tone, "What else can she do? She must be going to have a tryst with her new backer!"

Xu Zhiru covered her mouth in feigned shock and said in an exaggerated tone, "What? A tryst? Ah Chen, you mean... Ning Nanxue..."

Fu Chen's face turned pale, and he angrily interrupted Xu Zhiru: "That's right! She must have betrayed me. She must have clung to the powerful and influential, which is why she reached a cooperation with Huayun Group so quickly!"

Xu Zhiru's eyes rolled, and she immediately fanned the flames, saying, "Ah Chen, this kind of woman is so abominable. How could you tolerate her treating you like this? Why don't you... go to the resort and take a look? Maybe you can catch her in the act!"
