Zhang Qian was stunned for a moment, her expression blank for a long time.

After a pause, she frowned slightly.

"Even if you're right, what will you gain if Mei Yi Group loses to Xu's Group?"

"I know you, you don't do things without a reason. Don't tell me you did all this just to help me win Xu Tian back out of old feelings."

Chen Fen burst into laughter.

"You're right about this one, though."

"I, Chen Feng, never do anything that is not in my own interest."

"Then what are you after? When the Xu Group defeats the Mei Yi Group, Lin Wan'er will definitely hate you even more. Will you have a good life then?" Zhang Qian frowned.

Chen Feng's lips curled up slightly.

"So you still don't understand what a rich woman is like, let alone what a chaebol is."

"Even if the American Medical Group loses, it won't be a major blow—they're backed by the Lin family conglomerate from South Korea!"

“I have investigated. Although the Lin family conglomerate was defeated by the Xu family in Beijing many years ago, its foundation is still there.”

"In this world, apart from the Xu family, no one can fundamentally harm them."

"At that time, you can just focus on being Mrs. Xu. What I do is my business."

"So, what do you think? Was this a good deal?"

Zhang Qian looked into Chen Feng's wolf-like eyes and remained silent for a long time.

Finally, a smile appeared on her lips.

"make a deal."

……

The next morning, in the mall.

Xu Tian drove here to pick out a gift for Su Nuannuan.

Tomorrow is Su Nuannuan's birthday, so I must carefully choose something she likes today to earn the right to communicate with her!

On the first floor of the mall, Xu Tian strolled over leisurely.

"Sorry I'm a few minutes late."

Zhao Jing was standing in front of a clothing store.

Today, Zhao Jing wore a white lace slip dress, revealing one of her shoulders and her fair, slender thighs.

Her usual big waves were surprisingly straight today, flowing smoothly down to her waist, exuding a touch of elegance and gentleness.

At this moment, she was squinting at Xu Tian with a slightly displeased expression.

"What do you mean a few minutes? It's seventeen minutes and forty-five seconds!"

Xu Tian smiled and scratched the back of his head.

"Sorry, sorry, there was a traffic jam on the way."

Zhao Jing crossed her arms. "Is this a reason? Is this an excuse? To be late for a girl's first date is just awful!"

Xu Tian sighed helplessly, "This...this doesn't seem like a date..."

"How can it not count? Are you going shopping? I was even coming to help you pick out a gift, and you dare to be late for my help!"

As Zhao Jing spoke, she pouted and stomped her foot, causing the surging waves to rise and fall, making Xu Tian blush.

"Um...you got a new hairstyle today?"

Xu Tian changed the subject.

Zhao Jing smiled smugly, "Oh? You noticed? Looks like you're paying attention to me quite a bit~"

Xu Tian smiled bitterly.

"Such a big change, it's hard not to notice it..."

"Alright, I know you're trying to change the subject, but since you're paying so much attention to me, I won't hold it against you~ How is it? Does it look good? Is it cute?" Zhao Jing's face was full of anticipation, her eyes practically sparkling, like a girl who had just changed into new clothes and was waiting for her boyfriend to praise her.

Xu Tian nodded. "It looks pretty good, but it doesn't seem to be your usual style."

Zhao Jing snapped her fingers.

"Bing Gou~"

"That's right, that means my change of style today was quite successful."

"Why change your style? You're fine as usual, aren't you?" Xu Tian asked, puzzled.

Zhao Jing scoffed, pouting, "You're usually so nice to me, but you never buy me gifts! The moment your dear sister ignores you, you get all anxious, wanting gifts and making amends!"

Xu Tian slapped his face.

How did she even know?

Chu Lan...

"So, I'm thinking of trying a different style, maybe something cute will work~ hehe."

"You're going for a cute look, but you're wearing a lace slip dress..."

Zhao Jing blinked, "I'm just trying to keep things interesting in case you get any bad intentions towards me~" As she spoke, Zhao Jing moved closer to Xu Tian and drew alluring circles on Xu Tian's chest with her finger.

Xu Tian shuddered, quickly took a step back, and sighed, "Would you die if you didn't flirt with me for a day...?"

Zhao Jing burst into laughter, laughing so hard she was shaking uncontrollably.

"Alright, alright, look at you, so easily teased. You're clearly not a virgin anymore, yet you're still so innocent. It makes me want to tease you."

Xu Tian snorted, "Tch, aren't you afraid our Chu Lan will get angry?"

Zhao Jing was slightly stunned, and her face instantly fell to the ground.

"Come on, let's look at the gifts."

Without waiting for Xu Tian's reply, she turned and walked into the mall.

Xu Tian felt as if he had been punched, and his vision went black.

Something's not right here.

Why does it seem like Zhao Jing is angry again before Su Nuannuan has even calmed down?

What's wrong with me again?!

"Hey, wait for me!"

As Xu Tian spoke, he caught up with Zhao Jing.

……

In the next hour...

"Hey, what do you think of this? Isn't this doll adorable?"

"Ugly."

"How about this one? This necklace seems to be a hot item!"

"So rustic."

"How about the figurines? I remember Nikki watched anime before..."

"How childish."

"Hey, what's wrong with you...?"

"Do not touch me!"

Xu Tian was startled...

Zhao Jing didn't help choose anything; she just went into one shop after another. Xu Tian followed behind her, constantly asking questions. Zhao Jing said no to any of the choices, and she kept quickening her pace. When Xu Tian tried to catch up, he was told to back down, which resulted in the two maintaining a seemingly insignificant distance between them...

Several middle-aged couples who were shopping in the mall came over with smiles.

"Look, the young couple is arguing!"

"This young man must have done something wrong again, making that girl angry."

"Young man, you need to appease your girlfriend! You'd better hurry up and coax her, or she might not let you sleep in the room tonight!"

Everyone laughed.

Xu Tian looked embarrassed.

"She's not me... Oh well, never mind."

"Zhao Jing! You!"

"What do you mean, 'you'? How dare you criticize me?"

"No... I, I was wrong."

"Where did you go wrong?"

"I don't know either..." Xu Tian said dejectedly. "You... I'll just listen to whatever you say."

"Really?"

Zhao Jing said, then suddenly changed her expression and started laughing.

"In that case, come watch a movie with me!"
