She didn't realize her coffee had gone cold until the waiter called her.
If her hands and heart are so cold that she can't feel any warmth.
She smiled at the waiter, thanked him softly, and then got up to leave.
She hates being deceived the most, and now, experiencing such pain again, she feels as if her heart is being tightly blocked, making it hard to breathe.
again?
Bai Wan'er's heart skipped a beat. Why was it once again?
Fragmented thoughts suddenly flashed through my mind, and my head throbbed with pain.
She tried desperately to grasp the details, but couldn't remember them at all.
She almost lost her footing when her foot slipped.
A warm, large hand suddenly supported her, helping her to stand steadily.
After regaining her composure, she whispered her thanks.
"It's alright, just be careful." A gentle voice came from beside me.
Bai Wan'er subconsciously turned around, only to be met with a pair of captivating eyes.
The man in front of me had a gentle smile on his face. A black mask covered half of his face, but his eyes, which were the only part of his face visible, were enough to reveal his stunning good looks.
Bai Wan'er subconsciously took two steps back and spoke again, "Thank you."
"You've already said thank you twice." Perhaps the man found her appearance amusing, for the smile in his eyes became even more pronounced.
"Are you alright?" the man asked with concern, noticing her pale face.
Bai Wan'er took a deep breath: "Perhaps it's low blood sugar."
"Low blood sugar should be taken seriously. I happen to have a piece of chocolate here, would you like to have some?"
The man meant no harm, which gradually calmed Bai Wan'er down.
After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Bai Wan'er was about to leave again when she heard the man mutter to himself, "You don't even recognize me."
"Hmm?" Bai Wan'er frowned and looked closely, but she couldn't make out the man's appearance at all.
After a moment, the man said in a low voice, "It's nothing, maybe I mistook you for someone else."
On the way back, Bai Wan'er kept recalling the conversation between Liu Jia'er and Ji Fenghe, wondering what secret Liu Jia'er was unwilling to tell her, which made him so cautious.
The phone rang. It was Xie Wenwen, a friend from abroad. She was my former agent and friend at my previous company. I had been busy dealing with the termination of my contract with my former company.
The company naturally did not want her to return to China, so Bai Wan'er simply gave up all the resources the company had given her and returned to China alone with An'an.
Ji Fenghe moved the company headquarters here because of himself.
During this period, Ji Fenghe's company was registered and officially renamed "Ji's Group," taking root in Nandu.
"Wan'er, I've almost resolved the company issues for you. As a friend, I still want to offer you some kind advice. Have you really thought about returning to China to develop your career? Everything you have now will have to be wiped clean." Xie Wenwen's regretful voice came through the phone.
“An’an likes it here, and I also feel a sense of belonging to Nandu, so it’s better to come back.” Bai Wan’er’s mind was made up, and once she made a decision, she would not change it easily.
"Okay, then is it convenient for you to pick me up at the airport now?" Xie Wenwen didn't tell Bai Wan'er about her trip to Nandu beforehand, just to give her a surprise.
After picking up the flustered Xie Wenwen, Bai Wan'er said helplessly, "Weren't you doing well abroad? Why did you suddenly come back?"
Xie Wenwen grew up abroad and was completely unfamiliar with China.
"It's because I saw you're back. I was bored being alone abroad. My parents are pressuring me to get married anyway, so I just came to stay with you." Xie Wenwen said happily, "I heard you wanted to open a studio. You wouldn't mind if I joined you, would you?"
"How could that be? You are a competent and professional agent."
The two looked at each other and smiled.
When An'an returned home and saw Xie Wenwen, she couldn't hide her joy.
She threw herself into Xie Wenwen's arms with outstretched arms and said with a smile, "Aunt Wenwen, why did you come all of a sudden?"
"Of course Aunt Wenwen misses you. Don't you welcome Aunt Wenwen back?"
"Of course not."
After playing with An'an for a while, Xie Wenwen came to Bai Wan'er's side and whispered, "What are your plans now?"
"I have already signed a project cooperation agreement with Yunxing Group. I will complete the project first and then take the opportunity to promote the studio."
Xie Wenwen nodded knowingly: "In that case, I'll help you set up the studio first."
The two people are so close that they can understand each other with just a few words.
Thanks to Wenwen's help, things are much easier for me now.
In the afternoon, she went to Yunxing Group to discuss the project progress and brought Xie Wenwen along.
Lin Ran and Su He both showed curious expressions the moment they saw Xie Wenwen.
"Why don't I see the legendary Master Yun?" Xie Wenwen asked curiously, looking around.
Shen Que smiled and said, "Master Yun has an important meeting today and it's inconvenient for him to appear. If needed, I can convey his message for you."
"No need," Xie Wenwen waved her hand timidly.
Could it be that Shen truly possesses the ability to hear a thousand miles, enabling him to hear his own voice?
Halfway through the meeting, the door was suddenly opened.
Liu Jia'er approached the two with an arrogant look on her face and said with a smile, "Long time no see. From today onwards, I will officially join the team."
Lin Ran frowned. This time, Liu Jiaer joined the project team not as an ordinary person, but as an investor.
This is the result of her efforts to please Qin Jizhi over the past few months.
"Please continue, everyone."
Liu Jiaer looked at Bai Wan'er with an unfriendly tone, her eyes filled with contempt.
Xie Wenwen felt particularly uncomfortable with such gazes and whispered to Bai Wan'er, "Who is this woman? She doesn't seem like a decent person."
I'll tell you in a bit.
It's not advisable to discuss other people's behavior face-to-face, so Bai Wan'er didn't immediately start introducing herself.
The atmosphere at the discussion was very strange, and Xie Wenwen felt extremely uncomfortable.
Finally, the meeting ended, and she spoke indignantly: "That woman is really arrogant. Looks like there's going to be some drama."
"Don't pay any attention to her. She likes Master Yun, that's why she's targeting us. Don't take it to heart, just focus on doing our own thing," Bai Wan'er comforted her with a smile.
Just then, Liu Jiaer strode over from behind them and blocked their way.
"We'll be working together from now on, and I hope we can all get along well."
After she finished speaking, she gave Bai Wan'er a cold look: "I came here this time because of A-Xing's mother. She was worried that someone would disturb A-Xing's mindset and work here."
"Who are you indirectly criticizing here?" Xie Wenwen was naturally short-tempered and wouldn't tolerate her.
