Jiang Duoduo followed Pei Yutong's group of girlfriends to the most luxurious KTV in the city center. They arrived in a seven-seater van.
On the way there, the girls all surrounded Jiang Duoduo, asking her many questions about her relationship with Ji Yue and Gu Yan.
She was perfunctory and dismissive throughout.
Once inside the private room, the group of girls immediately started vying for the microphone.
Jiang Duoduo sat on the sofa, quietly looking down at her phone. She first received a WeChat message from Ji Yue telling her to go home early, but she could only ignore it.
Then I chatted with Assistant Chen for a while.
Assistant Chen played the victim and urged her to choose a place for a late-night snack.
All she could do was send him her address and then start thinking about how to get away later.
She looked up at the group of karaoke enthusiasts, each vying for the microphone with their own line, and swallowed hard...
It seems like we can just slip away like this, and they won't even notice, right?
Jiang Duoduo cautiously slipped to the door, just as her hand was about to grasp the doorknob—
The door was pushed open from the outside before anyone else could reach it.
The woman who caught my eye was Lin Man!
The moment Jiang Duoduo saw Lin Man, she was immediately alarmed.
What's Lin Man doing here?
The commotion at the door attracted Pei Yutong's attention.
"Sister Man, you've finally arrived!" Pei Yutong flattered her, pulling her towards the sofa area, saying, "Sister Man, these are all the sisters I met on the show..."
Pei Yutong laughed and talked for a long time before realizing that Lin Man's gaze had been fixed on Jiang Duoduo.
Pei Yutong realized something, "Huh? Sister Man, why are you staring at Duoduo? You two... know each other?"
How could I not recognize you!
Lin Man glared at Jiang Duoduo with a cold look in her eyes. As expected, Jiang Duoduo was quite shrewd; she had actually become friends with Pei Yutong so quickly…
Jiang Duoduo recalled her last meeting with Lin Man at Qin Jue's company, where Lin Man scratched her arm with her fingernails. Later, Xue Xue seemed to have mentioned taking action against the Lin family... Although she didn't know if Xue Xue had actually done so, she could tell from the look on Lin Man's face that she wanted to devour her alive.
This made Xiaosongduo completely disregard everything else. "Tongtong, I'm going to the restroom!" she said, and left very quickly.
Pei Yutong was momentarily stunned, until she finally spoke: "You...you're friends with her?"
Lin Man glared coldly at Pei Yutong; her gaze was incredibly frightening.
Startled, Pei Yutong trembled and cautiously replied, "Um... does Sister Man not like her? I... I'm not that close to her, we only became friends last night... If Sister Man is unhappy, I can stop being friends with her."
Pei Yutong and Lin Man had only known each other for a short time, about a week ago at a luxury goods exhibition, when she learned that Lin Man was actually the daughter of the Lin Group.
She felt as if she had used up all the good fortune she had accumulated over eight lifetimes in one night, so naturally she tried every means to please Lin Man.
Lin Man smiled strangely, "No. I'm very happy that you can become good friends with Jiang Duoduo."

Jiang Duoduo had just slipped out of the private room when her phone rang.
It was Ji Yue calling.
Ji Yue's voice was calm and gentle: "Are you playing?"
"Um……"
"Didn't you check WeChat? Why aren't you replying to me?"
Faced with Jiang Duoduo's silence, Ji Yue changed his words and said, "Go home early."
"good."
...
When Qin Jue and his assistant Chen arrived, Jiang Duoduo had already arranged over a hundred skewers and two grilled fish at a barbecue restaurant across from the karaoke bar.
As soon as Jiang Duoduo saw the big shots coming in through the door, she quickly waved to them.
