Jiang Ximeng's head started buzzing as soon as the brakes sounded.

The huge feeling of fear made her whole body tremble and her teeth chattered uncontrollably.

Especially the tightness in her neck made her feel as if she was back in that rainy night.

The rainy night she died...

She wanted to call for help, but even breathing became difficult.

He subconsciously pressed his chest with both hands, trying to steady himself.

Knowing that she was too scared, she just braked and she was still sitting in the seat intact.

Until he said...

"never mind."

A familiar voice and tone came, as if telling her that she would never be able to escape the ending of her previous life.

The trajectory of fate will chase her like a ghost.

Jiang Ximeng turned her head abruptly, her eyes fixed on Tan Yan.

She wanted to say that she would never bother him again and would not interfere in the relationship between him and Secretary Xu.

Ask him to be kind and approve her resignation request, and they will never see each other again...

But the Tan Yan in front of her was not that 'him', she couldn't say it.

What's more, Grandpa Tan had taken great pains to arrange for her to work in Hengyu not long ago, so she couldn't "make trouble unreasonably".

In fact, with Grandpa Tan's ability, it was not difficult to get her into Hengyu. The difficult part was getting her past Tan Yan.

She understood that Grandpa Tan had high hopes for her and was happy to see her and Tan Yan together, so she used the method of hunger strike to "persuade" Tan Yan to arrange her into Hengyu.

She didn't want to disappoint Grandpa Tan's kindness, so she had to work at Hengyu for a while.

And Grandpa, he was the first one to risk his dignity to beg Grandpa Tan, so she really couldn't say the words of resignation at this time.

Thinking of her grandfather, Jiang Ximeng's frightened expression eased slightly.

Now her family is all fine, and she hasn't lost herself for Tan Yan. Everything is under control, and she doesn't need to be so nervous.

Yes, that's right, she was too nervous just now.

Just brakes...

Jiang Ximeng turned her head, pressed the button for the electric curtains, and looked at the scenery outside in a daze.

Tan Yan looked at the thin figure thoughtfully.

He didn't understand why her eyes looked so desperate and empty, and there was an indescribable indifference...

They obviously didn't spend much time together, but he could clearly see the pain and sorrow in those black pupils.

Is this some pitiful trick?

But... not like that.

As the car drove into the city, Jiang Ximeng pressed the partition and said, "Uncle Zhang, is it convenient to park?"

Uncle Zhang didn't dare to act on his own, so he had to look at the man in the rearview mirror, "This... Young Master?"

The latter leaned back in his seat with his eyes closed and seemed to nod slightly.

The car stopped in a safe place and Jiang Ximeng got out with a small bag on her back.

"Uncle Zhang, please drive slowly."

"Okay, goodbye, Miss Jiang."

The car drove away and Jiang Ximeng also walked towards the shopping mall not far away.

"Why did you come just now?" Annan was waiting anxiously at the door.

"Why are you in such a hurry? It's here now. You're asking me to spend money and you're not being polite."

Jiang Ximeng smiled and glanced at him, then patted her bag.

The day after tomorrow is Annan’s birthday, but he has to go back to the headquarters in Country M tonight.

His birthday party could only be held there. Time was too tight and Jiang Ximeng didn't have time to go there, so she thought about choosing a birthday gift for him first, and then having a meal together to celebrate in advance.

"Tsk, you stingy guy. Hey, why is there a missing earring on your ear?" Annan pointed at her earlobe.

Jiang Ximeng then remembered that when she braked, her earrings seemed to have flown out as well. At the time, she was so scared that she completely forgot about it.

"I'll go look for it tomorrow. It should have fallen in the corner of the car."

"Just throw it away. I'll take you to buy a new one!"

"No, that pair is very expensive, costing hundreds of thousands." She would feel bad if she didn't get them back.

Annan looked at her with inquiring eyes, "I haven't seen you for more than half a year. You have changed a lot."

Jiang Ximeng didn't reply.

Can it remain unchanged?

Having experienced the difficulty of having food and clothing, she now dares not waste even a single cent.

Seeing her hanging her head, Annan grabbed the strap of her cross-body bag and said with a smile, "Since you are so thrifty, I won't choose a too expensive gift!" As they talked, they walked into the mall.

...

"Mengmeng, eat it. Isn't this your favorite?" An Nan pushed the seafood towards Jiang Ximeng.

Jiang Ximeng shook her head helplessly, "I don't have much appetite..."

Not to mention appetite, even the desire to live is almost gone!

Although she is the daughter of a real estate tycoon, she has always been a frugal person!

This guy goes into the mall and buys everything he wants.

thirty million!

He spent thirty million!

Well, all the pocket money she had saved for half a year was gone.

She's still eating, but now she even wants to eat people!

"Hey, hey, hey, don't be so stingy. When it's your birthday, I'll give you a bigger red envelope."

Annan picked up a piece of peeled king crab meat and stuffed it into Jiang Ximeng's mouth.

"Well... let's just tie it up... If we keep giving each other birthday presents in this way, in five years, we'll be giving each other cannons and tanks."

Jiang Ximeng chewed, chewed, and chewed.

I have to say, the crab meat here is delicious.

She spent money, so she has to eat it back!

Then there was a burst of inhalation.

Half an hour later, Jiang Ximeng patted her stomach and said, "Not bad, I'm full."

"Mengmeng, I'm leaving tonight. You can see me off. We may not know when we will meet again. My schedule has been very full in the past few months." An Nan pulled Jiang Ximeng's sleeve and shook it gently.

He is indeed very busy, and maybe in another six months he will be even busier. It is common for him to be so busy that they may not see each other for several years.

Although Annan seems carefree, he is actually an extremely insecure person. He was very introverted during college and only made one friend, Jiang Ximeng.

Because both of them liked to sleep in, they were always late for a certain professional course, so there was no other seat left, so they sat next to each other for several months.

From not saying a word at the beginning to talking about everything later.

They are friends, but also more like family without blood ties.

Jiang Ximeng patted the back of his hand and said, "If I don't have work tonight, I will definitely go."

"Well, let's make a deal. If you don't come, I'll cry in front of you. I'm telling you, every time you..."

Ananbala, Bala kept talking.

Jiang Ximeng supported her forearms on the table, her cheeks resting on her palms, and listened to his scolding with a smile.

"Mr. Tan?"

A low cry made Tan Yan look away and no longer look at the woman with her back to him.

"Mr. Tan, what do you think... can this plan be approved?" Seeing that Mr. Tan did not respond for a long time, the advertiser boldly asked again.

He got into Mr. Tan's business car halfway and agreed to go to a quiet place to discuss cooperation.

Somehow, Mr. Tan, who had been looking out the car window, suddenly changed his mind and came here.

Uh... he didn't quite understand. Could they really talk it out in a seafood restaurant?

Also, Mr. Tan, could you please take a look at me!

Your eyes are almost dead behind me.

He just turned his head casually, trying to see what could attract the attention of President Tan.

All you can see are the green plants on the partition wall, nothing else.

The advertiser was puzzled. Could it be that... Mr. Tan likes flowers and plants?

Tan Yan is tall and even when sitting in his seat he is more than a head taller than the advertiser sitting opposite him.

Therefore, his sight could easily pass through the partition where the green plants were placed and see Jiang Ximeng who was sitting with her back to him.

She was having a hot and passionate time with the man she met last night, and they were doing a lot of little things.

It seems that she is not very sincere towards him, so she turns to someone else.

Tan Yan sneered in his heart and looked away.

"Tell me the plan again."

"Okay, Mr. Tan, this time we plan to put the advertisement in the film and television..."

"It's very noisy here!" The man interrupted the advertiser, his deep voice revealing a hint of displeasure.

The advertiser was stunned and asked, "Isn't this the place you chose, Mr. Tan?"

But he didn't dare to say this.

I could only nod and agree, "It's a bit noisy..."

For the first time, Tan Yan felt that business was difficult to negotiate. He tried to ignore the noisy voices and tried to compete with the food on the table.

After looking down at the table full of seafood with skin or shell, his brows finally frowned.

His face was tense and his tone was impatient, "Who on earth wants to come here?"

The advertiser pursed his lips and dared not say anything.
