The most upscale five-star hotel in City Z.

Jiang Ximeng took a shower, changed out of her professional suit, and threw herself into the soft big bed.

Thinking of Tan Yan's words: "Why, are you so disdainful?"

Jiang Ximeng rolled her eyes.

That’s right, she just disdains it, so what!

But what does his next sentence mean?

It left her puzzled.

'Aren't you the best?'

What is she best at?

Why does Tan Yan seem to be having a seizure?

The floors above the 20th floor of the hotel are occupied by the rich and powerful, and the floors above the 30th floor are even more prestigious.

On the thirty-second floor, in a suite.

The man stood on the balcony and looked into the distance through the panoramic glass.

The room was dim, with only the warm yellow lights on at the bar. Most of the precious red wine on the bar was gone.

As the night deepened, endless darkness surrounded City Z.

The colorful neon lights merge into long rivers, glowing faintly in the night sky.

The man slowly raised the red wine glass in his hand.

The deep eyes looked outside through the wall of the cup.

As if dissatisfied with this, the next moment, the man threw the wine glass along with the valuable red wine into the trash can.

After picking and choosing among the places where the wine glasses were placed, I still couldn't find one that I liked.

Until the black eyes inadvertently looked at the tea table...

The man stared at the white porcelain cup, which was now filled with a strange red wine.

A pair of cold pupils flashed.

'Aren't you the best?'

Tan Yan admitted that he was too tired recently and said some nonsense.

But this sentence did not wrongly accuse her.

Didn't Jiang Ximeng just want to keep him hanging by the 'ambiguous yet distant' method?

Did she really think that he was one of those ordinary people who would easily fall into the trap she set?

"laugh!"

Throwing the white porcelain cup in his hand into the trash can, Tan Yan grabbed the coat on the sofa and pushed the door open.

Jiang Ximeng: "..."

Tan Yan: “…”

Their eyes met as they stood in the elevator, an indescribable feeling of awkwardness rising up in their ears.

It is now past eight o'clock in the evening. Jiang Ximeng is hungry and wants to go out to find some snacks for a midnight snack.

Unexpectedly, I ran into Tan Yan as soon as I went out.

The room they lived in was booked by Special Assistant Li. In order to make it easier for her to pass documents to her boss, she booked it on the same floor. Fortunately, she lived next door to him.

Finally, the elevator door opened and Jiang Ximeng walked behind Tan Yan with her head down.

I slowed down my pace as much as possible, trying to keep some distance from him.

"Mengmeng!"

In the lobby on the first floor, a slightly high-pitched male voice suddenly appeared.

Jiang Ximeng was in a trance for a moment when she heard the familiar yet somewhat unfamiliar voice.

He hesitated for a few seconds before turning his head.

Then Annan came towards me with his big white teeth bared and his eyes smiling.

Jiang Ximeng trotted over and asked in surprise, "Why are you here?"

Annan tapped her forehead with his index finger and said, "I'm here to discuss business, where else can I live if not here?"

Jiang Ximeng's eyes curved, "So that's how it is. Let's go and eat!"

The two of them walked out of the hotel, talking and laughing, and no one noticed the man standing on the side of the hotel.

Seeing that it was still early, Tan Yan planned to go outside to discuss business.

I called the driver at the hotel entrance and said, "Bring the car here..."

As he spoke, he raised his eyelids and stared with his narrow eyes at the two people who didn't notice him at all.

After a long time, he looked away.

-

"Hiss...Mengmeng...what are you doing here?"

Annan slurped the spicy hot pot in his bowl, which was so spicy that he hissed.

Maybe it was because he was brought up in poverty, although Annan is the son of a multinational financial institution, he is not arrogant at all. When he was in college, he often skipped classes with Jiang Ximeng to eat spicy hot pot.

"On a business trip. I've been working lately."

"Why are you still working? The Jiang family doesn't give you pocket money anymore?"

Annan couldn't understand why someone who usually liked to play badly suddenly became so motivated.

Jiang Ximeng poked the food in the bowl with chopsticks, her eyes slightly drooping, "No, Jiang's is indeed a family business that I will never lose even if I live off it for several lifetimes, but I can't be a failure."

She planned to resign after working at Hengyu for three or two months, finding an excuse that she could not properly handle the company's affairs.

She thought that her grandfather would not stop her again at that time, and she planned to join Jiang Group as a formal employee and no longer live off the wealth.

In her previous life, she had never really worked, so from the moment the Jiang family's business fell into chaos, she couldn't help even a little bit.

All her grandfather's life's work has been wasted, and it is her eternal guilt.

"It still has to be you. Come on, remember to tell me when you have pains and tears. I'll always be there for you to lean on!"

His shoulders sank as Annan slapped them hard twice.

The warm and solid touch immediately made Jiang Ximeng's eyes red.

It seemed that Annan always trusted her unconditionally.

She still remembers the funeral of her parents. At that time, Jiang was no longer the same as before, and most of the people who came to mourn were relatives.

All the words that came out of their mouths were vicious.

Even former relatives and friends ridiculed me.

No one believed her.

This is normal, she really took everything on herself...

Only Annan, who was rarely in the country, learned about domestic affairs a little late.

But he still stood by her against everyone's opinion and didn't ask her why.

Having a true friend in this life is a blessing that she could never obtain in ten lifetimes.

Jiang Ximeng raised her head slightly and blinked quickly. She didn't want to let the tears of weakness fall.

I cried too much in my previous life and now I don’t want to cry anymore.

She quickly changed the subject, "Once the truth comes out, I don't know who will rely on whose shoulders."

An Nan saw a hint of cunning in Jiang Ximeng's eyes, and he immediately lost his composure, "Hey, my brother's affairs are kept secret. Even if they are exposed, it must have been leaked by a little girl like you!"

Jiang Ximeng put down her chopsticks, crossed her arms over her chest, and looked like she was neither smiling nor laughing.

"That's not right. You have so many lovers. Who knows if some of them will get jealous, or if you don't handle the situation properly, they might expose the matter in anger."

She was teasing him in a joking tone.

In his previous life, Annan was exposed in major news because of his personal orientation issues, and at that time he had officially taken over the family business.

For a while, An's stock almost hit rock bottom.

A few days after An's accident, she was hit by a truck. She had no idea how Annan handled it.

Annan raised his eyebrows, "They don't dare."

"Even a rabbit bites when it's cornered. It just depends on whether you have pushed the person into a corner. Annan, you'd better be careful." Jiang Ximeng looked serious.

She didn't want anything to happen to Annan, as he was one of her few friends.

Annan's brown eyes rolled around in his sockets, and then he raised the corners of his lips, "Okay, since you care about me, I'll be more careful."

Jiang Ximeng knew that he had listened to her, so she smiled with relief.

If she can save her family and friends from suffering after her rebirth, it will be a great blessing.

Of course, beautiful people look more beautiful and bright when they smile.

Annan leaned his elbows on the table and looked over lazily, "You said it would be great if you were a man. Tsk, you really don't grow up well."

Jiang Ximeng: "..."
