Ning Nanxue and Fu Chen's five-year marriage
was maintained through the complete trampling of her physical and mental dignity.
She thought that even without love, there should at le...
The occasional clinking of glasses between the two, the look Lin Wanyi cast at Jiang Tingchen, and the perfect smile on Jiang Tingchen's lips, all made others think they were a perfect match.
Su Yao held the wine glass and watched from afar, sipping the lipstick again and again.
She dressed up specially today, hoping to meet Jiang Tingchen by chance, but who knew that this would happen!
She had someone take the photo to provoke Ning Nanxue, but the real scene in front of her was much more eye-catching than the photo!
Jiang Tingchen's assistant leaned close to him and said something. He nodded, his eyes vaguely sweeping towards Su Yao, and the curve of his mouth seemed to deepen.
How could he not know that Su Yao was there? Huayun Group's security was not to be trifled with. A small private detective was sneaking around outside the project base taking pictures. If he could find Su Yao, wouldn't it be a matter of minutes?
What he did tonight was half business, and half, it was performed for Su Yao.
Su Yao forced a smile on her face, walked over slowly with a glass of wine in hand, looked at the gap between Jiang Tingchen and Lin Wanyi, and softened her voice as much as possible: "Tingchen, I haven't seen you much recently, what have you been doing?"
Jiang Tingchen turned around and saw Su Yao. There was no special expression on his face. He just nodded politely: "Miss Su."
The tone was so indifferent that it was completely different from when he spoke to Lin Wanyi just now.
Lin Wanyi looked at Su Yao with a scrutinizing look in her eyes.
She didn't know Su Yao, but her woman's sixth sense told her that there was something wrong with the way this Miss Su looked at Jiang Tingchen.
"Tingchen, who is this?" Su Yao's eyes swept over Lin Wanyi. It was self-evident that there was something hidden in her eyes.
"This is Ms. Lin Wanyi, an important business partner of our Huayun." Jiang Tingchen introduced her and said to Lin Wanyi, "Mr. Lin, this is Ms. Su Yao."
"Hello, Miss Su." Lin Wanyi extended her hand with a standard and polite smile.
Su Yao shook hands with her and then let go. Her eyes were glued back to Jiang Tingchen, and she said something ambiguous: "Tingchen, you seem to be very busy recently?"
That look contained a hint of inexplicable grievance and inquiry.
Jiang Tingchen picked up his wine glass and took a sip, his expression unchanged: "The company has a lot of things to do, so I'm naturally busy. Miss Su, is there something you want to talk to me about?"
"I..." Su Yao looked at his almost cold face, and the anger and sourness in her heart could hardly be suppressed.
She bit her lower lip and lowered her voice, adding a hint of meaning that only the two of them understood: "I thought... you had forgotten the old ones because you had new friends."
She deliberately put some emphasis on the words "new friend" and glanced at Lin Wanyi.
Lin Wanyi was a smart person. She could tell at once that the two of them were not getting along. She smiled and said politely, "Mr. Jiang, Ms. Su, I have a friend over there whom I need to greet. I'll have to excuse myself for a moment." It was not appropriate for her to stay here at a time like this.
Jiang Tingchen nodded to her: "Mr. Lin, please do as you wish."
As soon as Lin Wanyi walked away, Su Yao couldn't help it and asked anxiously: "Tingchen, tell me honestly, what's going on between you and her? Are you...is it because of Ning Nanxue that you deliberately find another woman to make me angry? "
Her voice was trembling, as if she had suffered a great injustice.
Jiang Tingchen looked at her calmly, even with a hint of uncomfortable mockery in his eyes: "Ms. Su, you're overthinking it. Mr. Lin and I are purely business associates, and we only discussed project matters."
He paused, his tone adding a hint of warning. "As for Ning Nanxue you mentioned, that's my personal matter. Also, Miss Su, I hope you understand that there's nothing special between you and me, other than being schoolmates. And please don't do anything that would lead to misunderstandings in the future."
What he was referring to was, of course, the activities that Su Yao sent people to follow and secretly film.
Su Yao's face turned pale. Jiang Tingchen's words were like a knife stabbing her heart.
He knew? He actually knew! Then wouldn't those photos she had sent to Ning Nanxue become a joke?
"What...what did I do? Tingchen, have you heard any rumors?" She still wanted to be stubborn.
"Don't speak in secret in front of smart people." Jiang Tingchen responded calmly, "Miss Su, you should worry more about Fu's work. That's what you should be focusing on right now."
After saying that, he didn't even look at Su Yao again, turned around and walked towards the guests on the other side.
Su Yao stood there. Jiang Tingchen's indifference and warning made her panic and angry.
Not only did he not care about their old friendship, he also protected Ning Nanxue!
In a corner not far away, Xu Zhiru saw the whole scene clearly.
Now, Su Yao has turned against her. She and Su Yao have competed with each other openly and secretly in the business world several times. How could she not know what Su Yao was thinking?
She didn't have any thoughts about Jiang Tingchen, she just found it interesting to see Su Yao get humiliated.
"It seems that Jiang Tingchen doesn't like Su Yao very much." Xu Zhiru shook the wine glass and looked at Su Yao's distraught look, and had an idea in her mind.
She thought of what she had heard recently about Ning Nanxue and Su Yao, and an idea came to her mind.
A few days later, in a private room of a high-end club.
Ning Nanxue looked at Xu Zhiru across from her with a calm expression: "Miss Xu asked me out, what's going on?"
"Of course something happened, and it's something very important!"
Even though he had just been discharged from the hospital, after learning about Su Yao's dirty deeds, he still made an appointment with Ning Nanxue.
She picked up the teacup and blew the hot air off it: "We agreed to drive Su Yao away together. Now, how about we talk about sharing Su Yao's handles?"
"What does Miss Xu have?" Ning Nanxue asked.
Xu Zhiru smiled.
"Su Yao's methods of climbing up the ladder are not very glorious. For example, she snatched other people's projects and said bad things about her competitors behind their backs. I've left some of these here." She took out a USB flash drive from her bag and gently placed it on the table. "These are my sincerity."
"A few days ago, President Jiang seemed to have attended a banquet. Su Yao also went and was arguing with President Jiang at the banquet."
Xu Zhiru couldn't help but frown and immediately explained, "Although you and President Jiang are unhappy, I've known you for so long and I know that your relationship is indestructible. You would never quarrel over such a trivial matter."
"You and Mr. Jiang must have a plan, right?"
I didn't expect that someone could see through the reason.
Ning Nanxue smiled but didn't reach out to take it immediately. Instead, she looked at Xu Zhiru and said slowly, "Miss Xu is well-informed. However, Su Yao's thoughts now are probably not only on the Fu family." She changed the subject and inquired casually, "I heard that Jiang Tingchen... seems to have known about Su Yao's recent little actions."
