The melon owner had a seizure, and I was taken in by the state

Shangwei is a local Michelin four-star restaurant in Ningcheng. Even if you are rich and powerful, you may not be able to become a member. The boss issues membership cards based on personal preference.

From high-ranking officials to ordinary people, anyone I like will be given a membership card.

Even so, only 500 membership cards have been issued in the past 40 years.

It is said that the boss behind the restaurant has an extraordinary background and extensive network of contacts, and opening a restaurant is his personal hobby.

One of the most widely circulated rumors is that ordinary people who became members of Shangwei later became successful and became wealthy.

The hunger marketing of only issuing about 10 membership cards a year, coupled with the promotion of self-media, has made Shangwei a landmark in Ningcheng and a must-see spot for foreign tourists visiting Ningcheng.

Xie Jiang was not interested in the rumors or the boss behind them. He only cared about whether the food was delicious and whether he could fill himself up.

There is no such restaurant in the apocalypse. A plate of stir-fried pork with green peppers costs 3,000 points. It takes five years to save up for such a meal.

After getting out of the car, Song Mingheng appeared in the corridor. He was wearing a hand-made iron-gray suit, which made him look particularly restrained and cold.

Encountering it twice in one day, if this is a coincidence, then damn it.

Xie Jiang narrowed his eyes, raised an impeccable smile, and took the initiative to greet, "Teacher Song is here to enjoy the food too, what a coincidence."

[You're a dashing young man by day, and an abstinent boss by night. I don't know what other surprises you have in store.]

They say a man is in his prime at 31, and Song Mingheng is probably like a fairy-quality peony, so gorgeous that it makes anyone's legs go weak.

"It's really a coincidence. I didn't expect to meet you here again." Song Mingheng's heart was beating like thunder, and the joy in his starry eyes seemed to be overflowing.

She likes handsome boys, and she also likes cool and abstinent mature men. What about crazy guys and vicious dogs? Will she like them?

As long as she likes it, he can play it.

Before meeting Xie Jiang, he had never been moved by anyone and couldn't understand why Gu Wenshu would humiliate his fiancée in front of her for Liu Manman.

Others said that Gu Wenshu protected Liu Manman because of love.

He can't understand.

When he met Xie Jiang, he felt the feeling of being moved, but also the emotions of jealousy, loss, longing, etc.

It was clear that Gu Wenshu didn't love Liu Manman, he was just used to being proud and couldn't tolerate any flaws in life.

In order to consolidate the engagement, his fiancée drugged him as soon as he came of age, which was a lack of trust in him and even more of a blasphemy against him.

Unfortunately, what Liu Manman left him was not a flaw, but a vast green grassland, a stain that he would never be able to erase in his entire life.

Song Mingheng lowered his eyes and watched the girl slowly walk towards him in the last rays of sunset.

Her porcelain-white face was stained with crimson, and she looked as delicate and charming as a mountain goblin, captivating and charming.

His Adam's apple rolled, and he heard his heartbeat becoming increasingly chaotic. Everything in front of him faded away, leaving only the pretty figure that touched his heartstrings.

"Director Zheng invited me here. I don't have any membership privileges." Xie Jiang met his gaze openly, her clear eyes gleaming with a cunning glint. "He said I don't have enough contact with people in the industry, and he was worried about accidents during the live broadcast of 'The Cabin in the Woods', so he asked me to get familiar with the other guests in advance."

"That's not what he told me." Song Mingheng heard the tentative tone in her words, and his joyful mood was gradually tainted by bitterness, with a hint of subtle anger. "He misunderstood you before because of the incident with Director Sun Jianzhong, and even almost terminated your contract because of it. I'm having dinner tonight to formally apologize to you, and he asked Du Wenxuan and me to accompany you."

"Director Zheng has two faces," Xie Jiang said playfully, jokingly, "Is he afraid that if he tells me the truth and I don't come, he'll lose face, or is he afraid that my eldest brother will target him? The variety show is your apology. You must be very familiar with him, right?"

"We're not that familiar with each other. The contract hadn't been signed before we had the misunderstanding. Considering your situation at the time, I agreed to sign the contract but I had to take you with me." Song Mingheng felt guilty and regretful.

At that time, Xie Jiang was in a bad situation.

Her divorce from Wen Jinxing to clarify the rumors and expose the Cheng family's hypocritical true face brought her considerable popularity.

Appearing on variety shows is the fastest way for her to consolidate this wave of traffic and realize monetization.

At that time, he didn't know that Lin Xixi forced the resources of "Three Days and Two Nights" into her hands in order to discredit her.

"I see." Xie Jiang showed an understanding expression and stepped into the corridor with a smile.

As dusk falls, the warm yellow lanterns cast a gentle light, dispelling the quietly enveloping darkness.

Standing in the corridor, Song Mingheng and Xie Jiang were talking with smiles on their faces. The man was handsome and the woman was beautiful, like a perfect match.

Wen Jinxing stood at the other end of the corridor, staring at the bright and innocent Xie Jiang. The void in his heart grew bigger and bigger, and the overwhelming regret almost drowned him.

Obviously... she should stand by him forever, they will have lovely children and a lively home.

It was because he didn't know people well and wanted to maintain his own dignity in a despicable way, so he allowed Yu Shiwan to push her away with the most vicious means.

She was right.

I am indeed the biggest stain in her life, which can never be erased.

Not only is he her ex-husband, he's also a criminal.

"Boss Wen?" Han Xingzhou resisted the urge to roll his eyes, trying not to look at his frantic expression, and reminded him, "We should go in."

Xie Jiang has completely let it go, but the person who hurt her is trapped where he is. It's really retribution.

But I just cursed in my heart.

Ever since his divorce, this dad has been in mood swings, like he's going through menopause.

"Let's go." Wen Jinxing curled the corners of his lips and with difficulty averted his gaze, exuding a strong sense of loneliness.

Xie Jiang heard the noise and looked over casually. Seeing that it was Wen Jinxing, he immediately retracted his gaze and walked in another direction.

[What bad luck! I actually ran into that scumbag Wen Jinxing. I'm disgusted.]

[When I think of Yu Shiwan, that green tea girl, who always deliberately brings scumbags to meet me by chance, and then follows me around in a teasing way, it makes me even more disgusted.]

[Yu Shiwan is in jail, when will the scumbag disappear?]

Song Mingheng turned around in surprise, and Wen Jinxing also turned his head to look at him at this moment.

He curled the corners of his lips, not trying to hide the smugness on his face at all - you have no chance.

Wen Jinxing staggered, a trace of panic flashed across his cold face, all the events of the past flashed through his mind, and a sharp pain instantly spread across his chest.

During the six months when he was getting back on his feet, his dislike for Xie Jiang reached its peak. When he met her on a date with Yu Shiwan, he subconsciously thought that she was stalking him.

At that time, he was full of regret that he should not have given up hope of recovery so quickly, accepted Xie Jiang as his wife, and missed true love.

What an irony.

"Mr. Wen, what's wrong with you?" Han Xingzhou almost couldn't hold back his laughter.

Divorced Xie Jiang is so cool!

If it weren't for my own wallet, I really want to give her a thumbs up.

"It's okay, let's go in." Wen Jinxing closed his eyes, suppressed the surging regret, and numbly took a step forward with his long legs.

Xie Jiang no longer loved him, and even hated him to the core.

Shangwei is laid out in the style of an old royal palace, with the front building and front yard accommodating individual guests and ordinary members, and the back yard accommodating VIP members.

In those courtyards, you can listen to operas, listen to musical instruments, and stroll around the gardens to enjoy the scenery.

Director Zheng was not a VIP member of Shangwei, so he could only book a private room in the front building.

Xie Jiang and Song Mingheng entered the box. Director Zheng and Du Wenxuan had been there for a while, and there were five or six cigarette butts in the ashtray.

Besides the two of them, there was another unfamiliar face in the box that Xie Jiang didn't recognize.

She first glanced at Director Zheng and read his message in her mind.

Director Zheng has a straightforward personality. There is nothing marked in red in the information, and not many marked in blue either. Most of the rest are pink.

He was frustrated in his early years in the circle. When he was almost 40 years old, he filmed a variety show in which brothers and sisters lived in the countryside for a week, and began to become famous.

Later, the series "An Ordinary Day", in which celebrities hide their identities and appearances and experience ordinary work, gained great fame.

"The Cabin in the Woods" is his fifth variety show.

It is also the first live variety show that invites celebrities to role-play and solve crimes.

The pink content in the message is mostly because he has too many bad romances but has not cheated.

"Xiao Xie is here." Director Zheng stood up with a smile and introduced her to Du Wenxuan and the unfamiliar man. "I don't need to introduce Teacher Du. This is his agent, Tu Chenghong."

"Hello, Teacher Du, hello, Agent Tu." Xie Jiang smiled and stretched out his hand, shaking hands with Du Wenxuan and Tu Chenghong, reading the information in his mind.

Du Wenxuan's message added the content and process of the afternoon's discussion with "Mr." and the overseas drug lord Jusha who disguised himself as an assistant.

Tu Chenghong is the drug dealer codenamed Rabbit mentioned by the drug lord.

"Eighteen, I'm having trouble using my phone. Please send Tu Chenghong's information and Du Wenxuan's updates to Captain Wei." Xie Jiang shook Eighteen, who was absorbed in the novel, in his mind. "Send it right away."

The place where Du Wenxuan and others traded with drug dealers was City C, where this episode of "The Cabin in the Woods" was recorded.
