My ex-husband got engaged, I was reborn, and the young master of Beijing's elite circle went cr

“Ayan, I accept the earrings as a token of your affection, but the business in Nanluo City is simply too large; I cannot accept them.”

Jian He sat up and very seriously refused Cheng Yan.

Cheng Yan gently raised his hand and tidied up the messy hair on Jian He's forehead.

He said, "Why can't we accept it?"

“Because those are your things. I’m with you, dating you, not for those things. I just…” Jian He wanted to say that she just wanted to be with Cheng Yan.

After all, in her previous life, she became the laughingstock of the entire city and was tortured to death by Yin Muqiao; not a single person sympathized with her.

Only Cheng Yan cried her heart out when she jumped off the rooftop of the high-rise building while holding Rui Bao's body.

His deep affection for Jian He made it worthwhile for Jian He to stay with him without asking for anything in return.

"I am a man, and you are my woman. I have the responsibility and obligation to give you a good life."

“Jian He, what I’m doing now is very dangerous. Those businesses are no longer suitable for me to manage. You are someone I trust, so I want to entrust them all to you.”

"Don't reject me. If you do, I'll feel like you've always treated me like an outsider."

"This is the best thing I can give you."

Cheng Yan's heartfelt confession deeply moved Jian He. She silently nodded to Cheng Yan, and then she took the initiative to climb onto Cheng Yan's neck and kiss him deeply.

The two of them became entangled once again.

Jian He had a pretty good feeling about Cheng Yan.

This feeling of goodness was something she had never experienced before, and in a daze, she felt that this feeling was particularly familiar.

Jian He and Cheng Yan ate dinner particularly late tonight. When they came downstairs exhausted, the housekeeper had already set dinner on the table.

Cheng Yan dragged Jian He to eat.

They had just sat down when Tu Qing arrived at the restaurant. When she saw the hickeys on Jian He's neck, Tu Qing felt as uncomfortable as if she had swallowed a fly.

They were both adults. After Cheng Yan and Jian He went upstairs, she changed into pajamas and came downstairs. She knew exactly what that meant.

Jian He was not afraid of Tu Qing's gaze; on the contrary, she deliberately made sure that more of her hickeys were visible.

She's not the kind of woman who would bully others.

Seeing that Tu Qing was so blatantly trying to ruin her relationship with Cheng Yan, she had no way to control herself.

"Brother Yan, I also want to go on the business trip tomorrow." Tu Qing stood by the dining table and talked to Cheng Yan in a somewhat unpleasant tone.

Jian He then learned that Cheng Yan was going on a business trip the next day.

Cheng Yan refused outright, saying, "No, it's safer for you to stay in the capital."

“But I’ve been the one facilitating that matter, and I’m not comfortable letting just one person go.” Tu Qing’s reason was so plausible that it was impossible to refuse her.

Cheng Yan didn't even look up. He picked up some food and placed it on the plate in front of Jian He.

He said, "I have staff members and a lot of colleagues with me. What are you worried about?"

"Besides, your injuries have only just healed. It's really not advisable for you to participate in such a dangerous operation. You should rest more."

Hearing Cheng Yan's words, Tu Qing became even angrier. She suspected that it was Jian He's idea to prevent Cheng Yan from having her participate in the event with him.

Jian He disliked her, so she tried every means to keep her away from Cheng Yan.

"Alright, your sister-in-law and I are having dinner. You can leave now." Cheng Yan didn't want to argue with Tu Qing at the dinner table, so he directly told Tu Qing to leave.

Tu Qing glared at Jian He again before storming off.

After Tu Qing left, Jian He quietly asked Cheng Yan, "Are you going on a business trip tomorrow?"

"Yes, you'll be gone for about two weeks. You stay home and take good care of yourself. Understand?"

Jian He never asked about Cheng Yan's work. From Cheng Yan's previous injury, she could tell that Cheng Yan was engaged in a rather dangerous job.

There are some things that are not suitable for her to know. Keeping quiet at the right time will reduce Cheng Yan's worries.

"Okay, then you should take good care of yourself too."

"Well, let's eat."

The two ate dinner in silence. That night, Jian He slept at Cheng Yan's place.

Although she was told to sleep, she didn't actually get a chance to sleep at all. Cheng Yan was like a tireless wolf, constantly taking from her.

They only let her go when she was completely exhausted.

Just as she was about to fall asleep, Cheng Yan whispered in her ear, "I don't like men, I like women, and it's always been you..."

Because she was too tired the night before, Jian He slept until late morning the next day.

Cheng Yan was no longer by her side. Her aching body constantly reminded her of how unrestrained she and Cheng Yan had been the night before.

She will never forget that night.

After leaving Cheng Yan's house, Jian He headed straight for the Jian Group. On the way, she sent a message to Ye Duoduo.

She said, "I slept with Cheng Yan. He doesn't like men; he likes women."

She had just sent the message when she received a WeChat message. She thought it was from Ye Duoduo, but when she opened it, she found it was a photo sent to her by Tu Qing.

In the photo, Tu Qing and Cheng Yan are sitting side by side in the back of the car. Cheng Yan is asleep, and his neck is resting on Tu Qing's shoulder.

Perhaps to provoke Jian He, Tu Qing added another passage to Jian He's text.

Only I am worthy to stand beside Brother Yan and advance alongside him.

Jian He realized that this was a blatant provocation.

Tu Qing wanted to use this tactic to force her to back down.

If she were to be provoked by such a message, then she wouldn't be Jian He.

She wanted to reply to Tu Qing with a message, but after editing and sending the message, she discovered that Tu Qing had blocked her on WeChat.

Jian He was speechless.

She thought for a moment and sent a message to Cheng Yan.

She said, "Last night was wonderful, and I was very happy."

Upon arriving at the Jian Group, they discovered that Cheng Yan's assistant, Gao Xiang, had already arrived, accompanied by Ding Wenzhu's daughter, Ding Qing.

From Ding Qing's unfriendly gaze, Jian He could tell that yet another rival for her affections had appeared.

Cheng Yan is just too attractive.

Staying with a man like that will probably bring you a lot of trouble.

Gao Xiang reported to Jian He: "President Jian, as per President Cheng's instructions, all of Cheng's Group's businesses in Nanluo will be transferred to your name."

"These are the company details. I need your authorization and ID card to complete the transfer procedures."
