888 was also very angry: "Yeah, he is a scum!"
"Forget it. I'll make him suffer once I'm done with Jin Bin. He still wants to flirt with the original owner's best friend? No way! He doesn't deserve love in his entire life."
"Awake?" Jiang Han's low and hoarse voice sounded in Lan Shuang's ears.
Lan Shuang felt an itch in her ear and her body shrank subconsciously. Jiang Han hugged her tighter. It seemed that he was not yet fully awake and rational, and impulse took over. He suddenly leaned over and kissed Lan Shuang on her earlobe.
Lan Shuang felt the soft touch and her heartbeat seemed to stop for a moment.
Jiang Han seemed to notice her stiffness. He was stunned for a moment, then suddenly opened his eyes wide.
What did he just do?
He kissed Lan Shuang?
How could it be...
Silence spread, and awkwardness settled in. Lan Shuang pretended not to notice and asked, "Why are you here?"
Her tone was very natural. Jiang Han raised his eyebrows. Did she not notice, or was she pretending?
He unhooked Lan Shuang's arms, sat up, and whispered, "I heard Qi Yuan say you were almost done, so I came to check on you. As soon as I came in, I found you asleep. The chair wasn't comfortable, so I carried you here."
"You're sleepy too, so why don't you take a nap here for a while?" Lan Shuang also sat up. She lifted the quilt and got up to pour two glasses of water, handing one to Jiang Han.
Jiang Han felt his throat felt much better after drinking it. "Thank you."
"You're welcome." Lan Shuang stood by the window looking at the scenery outside, raised her head and drank all the water in the cup in one breath.
Jiang Han looked at her and suddenly thought of something: "Is your birthday coming up soon?"
Lan Shuang looked back: "Huh? How did you know?"
Then she thought about the date, and it seemed to be really approaching, next Wednesday.
Jiang Han lowered his eyes to avoid her gaze. "I took a quick look at your background when I checked it before, and I remembered it because I'm sensitive to numbers."
Lan Shuang: “Oh.”
She didn't ask any more questions and turned back to look out the window.
Jiang Han: "..."
Just one? That's it? Is the reaction so bland?
He couldn't breathe and it was blocked again.
After a moment of silence, he couldn't stand it anymore and asked, "How did you live in the past?"
Lan Shuang recalled and said calmly: "When I'm at home, I cook a few dishes. When I'm not at home, I just..."
Du Mingsheng's face appeared unexpectedly. She paused, her expression a little subtle.
Jiang Han's expression became even worse.
Even if she didn't say it, he would probably be able to guess, isn't there an ex-boyfriend who she lived with as a childhood friend?
Thinking of this, he didn't want to ask anymore, "If you want, I'll have someone order you a cake to liven things up."
"No need. Birthdays are nothing special. The sun will rise tomorrow regardless of whether you celebrate or not. There's no need to get fancy."
Lan Shuang smiled and refused.
Jiang Han nodded: "Okay, what are your plans for your birthday?"
"Yes," Lan Shuang's tone was much lighter this time. She turned and smiled at him: "I will personally take Jin Bin in."
She was facing the light, her smile meaningful but not in her eyes. Jiang Han looked at her and suddenly felt as if he couldn't grasp her.
He felt inexplicably nervous.
…
In a top-notch private room of a hotel, Jin Bin was sitting on a big bed in a bathrobe, staring at his mobile phone in a daze. After a moment of silence, he suddenly threw the phone away.
"Damn it! These bastards are staring at me. Are they crazy?"
Jin Bin stood up and walked around in annoyance, grabbing his hair frantically.
His son went to jail, his subordinates betrayed him, the company's stock price plummeted, and everything was a mess.
He tried to ask his former brothers for help, but as soon as they heard it was him, they hung up the phone, and when they called again, they were blocked.
Jin Bin was so angry that he broke several mobile phones.
Finally, someone with whom he had a good relationship gave him a heads-up, saying that his luck had run out and no one could help him. The people above him wanted to deal with him, and no one dared to help at this time because everyone was busy hiding their own tails.
Let him fend for himself and it’s best not to go home.
So Jin Bin started living a life of hiding from his family and unable to return home. His capital chain was broken, and people from all sides were calling him like they were trying to kill him. He didn't even dare to turn on his phone.
"grass!"
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. Jin Bin kicked the phone lying on the ground again. The phone immediately hit the opposite wall and the screen broke into several pieces.
"I've never been so cowardly in my life! Who's behind this?" Jin Bin clenched his fists, his eyes sinister. "If I find out, I'll skin them alive!"
As soon as the harsh words came out, someone knocked on the door. Jin Bin's heart skipped a beat and he almost jumped up reflexively.
He looked at the door hesitantly, not knowing whether to open it. Who would come to see him at this time?
Henchmen? Debt collectors? Police?
He stood there with his expression changing for a long time. The person knocking on the door was not in a hurry. He knocked three times rhythmically every once in a while, which did not sound like the latter two.
Jin Bin slowly moved to the door and looked out through the peephole. Seeing that it was his secretary, he looked around and saw that there was no one else. He breathed a sigh of relief and opened the door. "Why are you here?"
"Boss Jin, long time no see."
A cold female voice sounded from outside the door. Jin Bin's eyes widened suddenly. He watched his secretary being covered with her mouth and pulled to the back. A group of tall bodyguards in black blocked his door, and Lan Shuang in a white dress slowly walked in.
Her slightly curly long hair was tied up into a lazy ponytail, and two strands of bangs hung down casually, making her face look more delicate and petite.
The white sleeveless dress looks soft and harmless, but the owner who wears it is not that simple.
After Lan Shuang came in, she picked up her pistol with a "click" and put it against Jin Bin's forehead. She smiled kindly and said in a gentle tone, "Don't move."
Jin Bin stared at the cold pistol, his eyes almost cross-eyed.
He slowly backed away to the center of the room. After Lan Shuang came in completely, some of the bodyguards followed in while some stayed outside the door. The door was slammed shut.
"What...what are you going to do?" Jin Bin looked at Lan Shuang in horror.
"What for?" Lan Shuang smiled: "Of course I'm here to add insult to injury."
Jin Bin gritted his teeth and said, "I did cheat on your boyfriend, but didn't that also allow you to climb up to Mr. Jiang's high position? What can you do to get back at me?"
"Oh, do you think I did this for Du Mingsheng?" Lan Shuang laughed. "What a joke! Is he worthy? I did this for myself."
"What do you mean?" Jin Bin was confused. He really couldn't think of how he had done anything wrong to her.
Lan Shuang didn't elaborate. She turned her gun and sat down on the sofa. The bodyguards followed her diligently.
Jin Bin breathed a sigh of relief: "Let's talk it over nicely. Don't pull out the gun all the time. It would be bad if it went off accidentally."
