"She wouldn't really let the jewelry department fall into her hands. This is just an excuse to force her to admit her mistakes, to let her know that not only is the position of the young mistress of the Zhou family, but also the jewelry department that she has managed is not something you can take back just because you want to."
Ji Yu continued to coax him patiently, desperately trying to get him to agree.
Zhou Yanci thought about it carefully and felt that it made sense, so she simply nodded and let her do it.
After the person left, he glanced at Chenmian and said indifferently, "Let the nurse come and change your clothes and sheets."
Chenmian quickly grabbed his hand: "Aci, I kissed you just now, and you didn't pull away."
Zhou paused, speaking briefly.
"You..." A glimmer of hope flickered in Chenmian's eyes, "...don't you still have feelings for me...?"
Zhou Yanci lowered her eyes, her icy gaze falling on Shen Mian with a faint warning.
"It was just an accident. I hope it won't happen again, understand?"
Chenmian bit her lip and slowly released his hand.
Feeling irritated, Zhou Yanci turned and left.
Just you wait and see.
Within two days, Shang Wu will definitely come back obediently.
...
bar.
Cups clinked, laughter filled the air.
Shang Wu sat alone at a single table in the corner, swirling the wine glass in her hand.
Suddenly everything went dark, and someone sat down.
"Sister, is anyone here?"
Shang Wu looked up and saw a sunny young man in front of her, who was about twenty years old and wearing a black and white hoodie.
She took a sip of her drink, leaned back on the sofa, and gave him a casual glance.
"What, you want to hit on me?"
The boy was taken aback, not expecting her to be so direct. He smiled confidently yet shyly: "Is it not allowed? Or is it that you're not single?"
"I'm single."
Shang Wu said meaningfully, "However, there are so many men in the world, where do you get the confidence that you can succeed in striking up a conversation with me?"
The boy wasn't discouraged; instead, he leaned closer and winked at her.
"Am I young, handsome, and strong? Do I count as an asset that attracts you?"
Shang Wu raised an eyebrow, sizing up his physique, which was neither thin nor muscular, as shown under his hoodie.
She nodded: "Her figure is just right."
The boy smiled and took out his phone: "Let's add each other on WeChat..."
Before he could finish speaking, someone suddenly reached out and tapped on the table.
Shang Wu and the boy looked up together.
It might be because it's a bit hot, or it might be because I drank too much.
Shang Wu's face flushed slightly, and after a few seconds of reaction, she slowly asked, "Lu Rang?"
Lu Rang draped his coat over his arm, and the collar of his black wool sweater was slightly open, just revealing his collarbone.
He ignored Shang Wu and looked at the boy: "You're sitting in my seat."
The boy stood up, looked at Shang Wu, and left reluctantly.
After the person left, Shang Wu felt disappointed: "What are you doing?"
What are you doing?
Lu Rang retorted, "Aren't you afraid Zhou Yanci will find out if you come here to chat her up?"
Upon hearing him mention this person, Shang Wu's good mood vanished. She picked up her bag to pay the bill, but failed to enter her phone password several times.
The cashier looked helpless: "Miss, you're holding your phone upside down."
"oh……"
Shang Wu turned the phone sideways again.
"No, you have to take it like this." The cashier picked up her phone and demonstrated.
Shang Wu glared at him angrily: "You already have a cell phone, why do you need mine?"
The cashier was completely baffled.
The next second, Shang Wu's collar was grabbed.
Lu Rang pulled her behind him, paid the bill, and then led her out by the arm, always keeping a distance of half a meter.
Shang Wu, in her drunken state, concluded that this guy hated her.
She deliberately quickened her pace, and when Lu Rang pushed open the door, she intentionally bumped into him, meeting his slightly furrowed brows with a satisfied smile.
Am I strong?
Lu Rang looked down at her calmly, as if he were looking at a fool.
"Doesn't it hurt?"
Shang Wu looked down and saw that her hand had been cut by the coat button in Lu Rang's arm.
She didn't feel anything, but her eyes immediately welled up with tears, and she choked out, "It hurts."
Lu Rang took a deep breath and pulled her outside.
Shang Wu stumbled along behind, and after a few steps she squatted down, hugged herself and cried.
"It hurts, it hurts so much..."
It hurts everywhere.
It hurts so much to endure the taunts of the betrayers every single moment.
A cold wind blew, and Shang Wu shivered involuntarily.
Lu Rang bent down and pulled her up.
Shang Wu couldn't stand steadily and could only lean on him.
The man so close to her was too handsome, dazzling her eyes.
She was thinking, if Zhou Yanci was so shameless, he could kiss Shen Mian, so why couldn't she kiss other men?
Shang Wu tiptoed and grabbed Lu Rang's collar to kiss him.
The neckline of the wool sweater was stretched and deformed.
A dark glint flashed in Lu Rang's eyes. He raised his hand and pinched Shang Wu's chin.
"Shangwu".
His voice was low and deep, and his Adam's apple bobbed as he said, "Make sure you know who I am."
Shang Wu blinked: "You are Lu Rang."
She asked matter-of-factly, "So what? Do you want to give it to me?"
