Su Beicheng answered the phone in the living room for a few minutes before returning to the bedroom. There were some emotions hidden in his eyes that I couldn't understand.

And I am very sure that Chu Rui's sister has had contact with Su Beicheng.

Thinking back to what Chu Min said in the bathroom, it seems that after Su Beicheng takes office, they will start to use connections in order to carry out the company's work.

Su Beicheng is a new official, and he must be in urgent need of some people to consolidate his position in Shanghai. Therefore, his work must be complicated and secretive.

Although I have ambitions, I don't want to get involved in the world of big capital like them. I think I don't have the means to protect myself and withstand all kinds of risks.

As I watched Su Beicheng approaching, I had already started to back out.

However, this relationship is still not something I can end just by saying so. Su Beicheng obviously likes me very much now, unless there is an opportunity that allows me to break up with him all at once.

For example, he betrayed me, and I have evidence.

Su Beicheng is a very proud man. Although he likes me, if he has done something wrong to me, he will definitely not keep pestering me.

"I just got transferred here and am quite busy at work. Jingjing, I have to leave first. I'll make an appointment with you tomorrow."

Su Beicheng came over and kissed me. I pretended to be dependent on him, but he still left.

I stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, watching the black car downstairs. After starting, it quickly disappeared on the road, my heart as calm as water.

Some people say that love is like sand in your hand. The tighter you hold it, the faster it leaks out.

Regret is normal. If you can't catch a man, let him go.

I stretched out my hand and looked at my fingers which were as slender as green onions. My hand was only this big when I spread it out. How much could I hold?

But I always think, don’t be greedy, I can’t have everything, but don’t be discouraged, I can’t have nothing.

Missing Su Beicheng might be a pity, but he is like a wild horse and I can't catch him at all.

I have kept this matter quietly in my heart.

I thought that Chu Min would not know about my relationship with Su Beicheng so soon.

But who would have thought that Chu Min would find out through Chu Rui a week later.

She asked me out, which was something I never expected.

Last time in the restaurant, she didn't even look at me straight in the eye. That naturally noble and arrogant look in her eyes left a deep and unforgettable impression on me.

But this time, the situation was different. She had to look me in the eye.

Chu Rui kept lobbying on the phone: "Jingjing, my sister is currently in charge of my Chu family's real estate and electronic foreign trade business. She wants to meet the newly appointed Mayor Su. However, Mayor Su is a very busy man and it is difficult to arrange a dinner. Please help me. My sister is a very hardworking person."

"Don't underestimate my sister's strong personality. She's actually very approachable. If you have a good chat with her, maybe you can become friends."

I just thought Chu Rui's words were like a gust of wind blowing past. I could tell what kind of person Chu Min was at a glance.

The meeting place was a very high-end afternoon tea place, which looked like a high-tech exhibition hall with many modern mechanical items on display.

As I stepped in, I saw Chu Min standing in front of a mechanical cabinet, looking at an exhibit that was rotating inside.

"Hello, Miss Chu." I walked forward politely.

Chu Min actually saw me coming a long time ago, but she still turned her back to me proudly until I took the initiative to speak. Then she turned around with a fake smile on her face.

"What a coincidence! I never thought I would get to know you in this way." The smile on Chu Min's face was superficial and insincere.

I also smiled and said, "Yes, I was in a hurry last time and didn't have time to introduce myself to Miss Chu."

"It's okay. I heard Xiao Rui talk about you. What's more, it seems that the name of his company was taken from a character in your name." Chu Min's sharp eyes looked back and forth at my face, as if he wanted to see through me.

Unfortunately, although she is as sharp as an eagle, I also know how to hide my brilliance and will not let others see through my thoughts easily.

Chu Min seemed to notice this, and she smiled: "No wonder you can charm my brother into a fool, you can tell at a glance that you are a woman with high emotional intelligence."

I said modestly: "Miss Chu, thank you for the compliment. I am just an ordinary woman."

"You are an ordinary woman, but Mayor Su can arrange for you to study at the Art Academy from Dongguan. Tsk tsk, how can this be ordinary?" Chu Min seemed to have checked the matter between me and Su Beicheng, and knew the process of how Su Beicheng and I met.

"Miss Chu, why is she so concerned about me?" I calmly picked up the coffee and took a sip.

Chu Min narrowed her eyes. Obviously, she hoped that I would be the one who would be humble. But now, I asked her on purpose, and she seemed unhappy.

"Ms. Yin, you should not be so greedy. You are interacting with Mayor Su and now you are entangled with my brother. I admire your emotional intelligence, but playing with people's feelings is like playing with fire. Do you understand?" Chu Min looked like she was giving good advice.

I know what she means. Doesn't she want to say that I'm fickle?

"Ms. Chu, I think there must be a misunderstanding. Your brother and I are just superiors and subordinates." I immediately clarified.

"You know clearly whether we are superiors and subordinates, but you are very good at playing with people's hearts. Knowing that my brother likes you, you put forward inappropriate conditions to keep me in the company, and even got a part of the company's original shares. My brother has explained it to you, and he said that he gave it to you willingly. How can you accept it with peace of mind?" A hint of sarcasm flashed across Chu Min's expression, and she intended to hurt my self-esteem.

I lowered my head and smiled, then calmly replied, "Ms. Chu, with just a few words, erased everything I've done for the company, as if I were just a decorative element in the company. Have you ever asked your brother if I contributed to these two cooperation negotiations?"

Chu Min's face changed. Seeing that she could no longer give me orders, she looked unhappy.

"Okay, if you want to continue staying in my brother's company, that's fine, but you have to do me a few favors." Chu Min began to get to the point.

I looked at her calmly and asked, "What do you want me to help you with?"

"I have some things that I want Mayor Su to help me with, but I haven't had the chance to meet him recently. Can you help me connect us? I can give you some benefits after the matter is done." Chu Min began to negotiate with me.

After hearing what she said, I was shocked. Could it be that Chu Min hasn't conquered Subei City yet?

It shouldn't be like this. A bright and generous woman like her, how could she not get Su Beicheng's attention?

But in fact, Su Beicheng may really have ignored her kindness.

In this case, I seem to be convinced by the excuse.

I stirred my coffee and smiled calmly, "Miss Chu, why don't you ask why I was able to stay with him for so long? Why didn't he abandon me?"
