Chapter 48 Let's just call him Turtle.



After returning to her room, Jiang Ran went over her plans in her mind again.

The most important thing right now is to cut off Jiang Xinrou's connection with Gu Shifan. After all, compared to the Gu family, Wen Yanfei is like an ant trying to touch an elephant.

The Gu family has an incredibly powerful backing.

Just then, she received a message from Jiang Xue.

Jiang Ran opened the document and saw that Jiang Xinrou would meet a young man at 3 PM three days later, go shopping and have dinner with Gu Shifan at 6 PM, and go to the Emperor Hotel at 9 PM.

Hmm...she's quite busy, huh?

That's quite a packed schedule.

This pretty boy must be Wen Yanfei, right?

As for the person I met at the Emperor Hotel... could it be the mysterious man Jiang Xue mentioned?

Jiang Ran couldn't help but ponder: Who is this mysterious man?

I heard she wants to go on variety shows to clear her name. So, who in China is most capable of clearing a celebrity's name?

Could it be...

A wicked idea suddenly flashed through Jiang Ran's mind, and she excitedly said something to the person on the other end of the phone.

Three days later.

Jiang Xinrou was dressed in a black trench coat, wearing large sunglasses and a mask, and quietly entered a restaurant.

Once inside the private room, the people inside had been waiting for quite some time.

"You've finally arrived. Have you changed your mind after making me wait so long? Hmm? Don't you care about me anymore?" Wen Yanfei complained as he pulled out a chair for her.

Jiang Xinrou took off her sunglasses and mask, her tone revealing a hint of impatience: "I was exhausted from filming this morning, and I still managed to find time to meet you this afternoon, and you still wrong me like this."

With that, she turned her head away and snorted coldly, "Fine, then don't come to see me again."

"Oh dear, baby, I was wrong. Please don't be angry with me." Wen Yanfei half-squatted in front of her and reached out to hold her wrist.

"Hmph, so will you listen to me from now on?"

"Listen! I'll listen to everything! I've done everything you asked me to do, haven't I listened to you enough?"

"I'm doing this for our future."

"Yes, I understand."

He reached out and took her hand, pressing it against his face, smiling gently: "I promise, from now on, if you tell me to go east, I will never go west."

"That's more like it!"

"Then... what about the reward you promised?"

Jiang Xinrou snorted and leaned forward slightly.

Just as her lips were about to touch his cheek, the door to the private room was suddenly opened—

"ah!"

Jiang Xinrou screamed in fright at the sudden noise, thinking that the restaurant waiter was being scolded for not knowing the rules. But when she turned her head to look at the door of the private room, she was stunned by the tall figure standing there.

"Who are you? Don't you know any manners?" Wen Yanfei was the first to express his dissatisfaction.

Jiang Xinrou was completely stunned. Her mind went blank for a moment, as if struck by lightning, and she seemed to have forgotten how to think.

After a long pause, she stammered, "Brother Shi... Brother Shi Fan... how... how did you get here..."

Gu Shifan's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, his handsome eyes narrowed dangerously as he looked at Wen Yanfei's hand.

Jiang Xinrou then noticed that her hand was still being held by Wen Yanfei, and immediately withdrew it as if startled.

She quickly stood up and explained, "Brother Shi Fan... don't misunderstand, there's nothing between us..."

Wen Yanfei was stunned by her words: "Xinrou, what are you saying?"

Jiang Xinrou frantically winked at him, then continued to explain, "Brother Shi Fan, this is my junior high school classmate. He came to City A today because he hasn't seen me in a long time and wanted to invite me to a junior high school reunion."

Wen Yanfei was taken aback by her words.

What?

They're more than just classmates!

Jiang Xinrou gave him a warning look, so he could only say, "Yes, we have known each other since junior high school."

He desperately didn't want to lose her; if he didn't do as she said, he knew he would lose her.

Gu Shifan's expression was still very unpleasant. "Do classmates need to hold hands?"

They had arranged to have dinner together at six o'clock today. He heard from her agent that she was sick and not feeling well, so he rushed over, only to witness this scene.

"Brother Shi Fan, are you hungry? How about we have some afternoon tea together?" Jiang Xinrou stepped forward and took his arm, saying ingratiatingly.

Wen Yanfei felt a pang of discomfort seeing her ingratiating actions.

She's his goddess! How could she be so humble and subservient to another man?

Jiang Xinrou then looked at Wen Yanfei: "That classmate... I won't be attending the class reunion. I'm too busy lately, and I have to go to the film set to film. I don't have time to go."

After saying that, she secretly glared at him, then glanced at the door of the private room, signaling him to leave.

Wen Yanfei clenched his fist tightly and had to grit his teeth to say, "It's okay, I'll invite you to the next class reunion. I'll be going now."

"Okay, then I won't see you off."

After Wen Yanfei left the private room, Jiang Xinrou immediately explained, "Brother Shifan, the only person I like is you. You can't misunderstand me. He and I are really just classmates."

"If he's just a classmate, why did you meet with him privately?"

Jiang Xinrou's eyes darted around, her eyes already brimming with tears: "I knew you wouldn't believe me, so I'll tell you the truth. This classmate has indeed had a crush on me, but I don't like him at all."

"Then why—"

"Do you think I want to?" Jiang Xinrou interrupted him, her expression even more aggrieved: "I don't want to see him either, but he's a very extreme person. If I don't see him, he'll definitely harass my family."
