As Jiang Che and Ye Zhao's car drove further and further away, a person finally emerged from a corner of the hospital. Meng Shishi, with a mocking smile on her face, looked in the direction the car had gone and said, "Ye Zhao, you've finally met your match."
She then posted the video she had taken to the group chat, with the caption: "Look, this beat-up car. My boyfriend is probably a poor guy too. He's really doing badly."
The video shows a dusty, old car with a woman standing next to it. She looks around, opens the car door, and gets in.
Although they were a short distance apart, the video was very clear, and you could almost immediately tell that the person was Ye Zhao.
When the video was received, the laughter in the private room of the Blue Ocean Club grew louder and louder. When Shu Yang arrived, they were having a lively discussion.
She pushed open the door and walked straight towards Shen Jiayi, asking with a smile, "What are you chatting about? It sounds so lively!"
Shen Jiayi, holding her phone, waved excitedly at her and said, "Sister Shuyang, come quick! Ye Zhao is back..."
Upon hearing this, Shu Yang's smile faded slightly, and he asked indifferently, "Really? What's she doing back? The Ye family is in such a state."
Shen Jiayi smiled excitedly, reached out and pulled Shu Yang over, held the phone up to her face and said, "Look, look at how far you've come."
After watching the video, Shu Yang laughed and said, "The Ye family is bankrupt too, how much better off can she be?"
Shen Jiayi said with a mocking look, "Isn't that right? No wonder you ran away in such a sorry state back then, were you afraid of this situation today?"
Shu Yang smiled and said, "Who cares? We're not in the same circle anymore anyway."
Wang Qi chimed in, "Exactly, who cares? Why are we paying so much attention to her every day?"
Shen Jiayi then put down her phone and pulled Shu Yang aside, asking, "Sister Shu Yang, what have you been busy with these past few days? It's been so long since you've come to the gathering."
Shu Yang's smile faltered for a moment before she replied, "I'm on set. The new movie is about to start filming."
Upon hearing this, Shen Jiayi exclaimed with admiration, "Wow! Sister Shuyang, you're so amazing! I wish I could be as focused on my career as you."
Shu Yang laughed and said, "It's so nice to be a freeloader. I don't have that kind of luck yet. With Adu around, there are some things you won't have to worry about for the rest of your life."
Shen Jiayi snuggled close to her affectionately and said coquettishly, "Sister Shuyang, you're so nice..."
Shu Yang smiled and asked casually, "Why haven't I seen Adu lately? What's he been busy with?"
Before coming here, she went to He Jie's private room next door, but she didn't see Chen Du there either.
Shen Jiayi pouted and said, "Big brother is probably busy with work, what else could he be doing? I don't know much about his affairs."
Shu Yang nodded thoughtfully and didn't say anything more. She had come here today specifically to see Chen Du, but she hadn't expected to be unable to find him in several places, which made her feel a little frustrated.
Ever since her falling out with Shen Du, her life has become increasingly difficult. She's been targeted and ostracized repeatedly at the theater. Even though she has the Shu family backing her, those people don't take her seriously at all. She knows that it was because of her close relationship with Shen Du that she was able to thrive in the entertainment industry before. Now that she's had a little disagreement with Shen Du, those people are all eager to bully her and give her attitude.
Now that she had secured the lead role, it had been forcibly changed to the second lead. How could she be so angry? They were all just a bunch of sycophants, she thought bitterly, completely forgetting how she had bullied and ostracized others when she was in power.
Seeing that no one spoke, Wang Qi turned to Shen Jiayi and asked with a smile, "Jiayi, didn't you go to the Jiang family a couple of days ago? How was it?"
Upon hearing this, Shu Yang looked at Shen Jiayi with some surprise and asked, "You went to the Jiang family?"
Shen Jiayi's expression was not good, and she answered vaguely, "Yes, I went to visit Aunt Jiang."
Wang Qi asked with curiosity, "How did it go?"
Shen Jiayi feigned ignorance and replied, "What's the situation?"
To everyone's surprise, Wang Qi was quite oblivious and asked with a curious look, "Jiang Che, didn't you see him?"
Shen Jiayi's expression had already turned quite unpleasant: "I'm going to visit Aunt Jiang, what do I need to see him for?"
Seeing this, Shu Yang silently tugged at Wang Qi. Wang Qi reacted somewhat slowly, smiled awkwardly, and said, "I was just asking, I didn't mean anything by it."
Shen Jiayi's complexion was already not good, and when she suddenly remembered what Wang Qi had said last time, her face became even more unpleasant. What should she do if Jiang Che really had a girlfriend?
While she was deep in thought, He Jie and his group were discussing Jiang Che's matter in the next private room.
Unlike the noisy and bustling private room of Shen Jiayi and the others, this place was much quieter. The group sat on the sofa, listening quietly to He Jie speak.
He Jie's expression was beaming, and his tone was even more excited: "I'm not kidding. I really thought he had some important client. Who knew I'd see him helping a woman into a car in the parking lot!"
Wang Shuo hurriedly asked, "Didn't you follow them?"
He Jie suddenly fell silent, then said guiltily, "He was driving too fast..."
Fang Yizhou scoffed, still sounding somewhat surprised as he said, "I didn't expect Che-ge to be serious? I thought he was just trying to reject Shen Jiayi when he said there was something going on the other day."
Xie Ming smiled and said, "Shen Jiayi isn't worth him doing this..."
He was the only one present who knew the truth, but he was pretending to know nothing and had to cooperate with He Jie by showing a surprised expression, which was really difficult for him.
He Jie shook his head and said, "Brother Che is so boring. Why hide your girlfriend? It's not like she's shameful. Besides, I'm one of your own. It's really pointless..."
Wang Shuo chimed in, "Exactly, they don't treat us like brothers, do they?"
Xie Ming smiled and said, "Why did we get onto this? He probably has some difficulties. He'll say it when he wants to. What's so strange about that?"
Fang Yizhou replied indifferently, "That's true..."
He Jie sighed and said, "But speaking of which, where did Brother Du go? He seems to be very busy lately..."
Wang Shuo replied with an air of nonchalance, "Don't you know him? He's a workaholic."
He Jie didn't know why, but he just felt that something was wrong. However, he didn't think much of it, picked up his wine glass, said "drink," and then put the matter aside.
At that moment, Jiang Che and Ye Zhao had just sat down in the restaurant.
"This restaurant makes pretty good sweet and sour fish, I'll try it later."
Ye Zhao smiled and said, "I do like sweet and sour dishes, but I don't like them so much that I want to eat them at every meal."
Jiang Che smiled and said somewhat shyly, "I just wanted to let you try them all."
