It was Zhao Jing's actions that made Zhang Qian feel threatened, so she quickly established a relationship with him and got married, but this also caused her to completely break off relations with Zhao Jing.

Looking back, Xu Tian thought Zhang Qian must love him, otherwise why would she break off her friendship with his childhood friend for him? Now he realizes that Zhao Jing was always outgoing and loved to steal other people's boyfriends and husbands. Moreover, Zhao Jing came from a wealthy family and was a true heiress in Jiangcheng. Zhang Qian, on the other hand, came from a family that was only moderately well-off and had an older brother, so she was naturally not as good as Zhao Jing.

So, while the two appeared to be like sisters, they were secretly competing with each other, which is why she married Xu Tian out of spite.

Looking back now, Zhao Jing's family background was indeed something Zhang Qian could never achieve through hard work alone.

"Long time no see! Why didn't you even say hello when you saw me?"

As Zhao Jing spoke, she put one hand on Xu Tian's shoulder.

Xu Tian gave an awkward smile, "It has been quite a while. You're here to buy a car too?"

Zhao Jing pointed her slender finger at the car not far away, "Look, I've already bought it, and I'm just waiting to pick it up."

"Congratulations." Xu Tian didn't want to get entangled with Zhao Jing any further.

Zhao Jing persisted, "You're here to buy a car? Where's Zhang Qian? Didn't she come with you?"

Seeing that Xu Tian didn't speak, Zhao Jing said again, "It's rare to run into you today, come on, I'll treat you to dinner."

Xu Tian shook his head, "No, I have something to do later, so I won't trouble you."

"No, please," Zhao Jing said, pulling Xu Tian back. "We finally get to see each other. How about we have dinner together after you've finished your business?"

It has to be said that Zhao Jing's ability to pester people is as good as ever. Xu Tian is also thin-skinned and couldn't resist her persistent pleading, so he had no choice but to agree.

The saleswoman, Lili, now looked at Xu Tian differently. Before, she looked down on him, but now she despised him even more. No wonder he was dressed in rags and wanted to buy an Audi; he had hooked up with a rich woman.

She'd seen plenty of these pretty boys, so she quickly and kindly stepped forward and asked, "Sir, do you still want the car you've been eyeing?"

"Didn't you say you didn't have any in stock?" Xu Tian retorted.

Lili wasn't embarrassed and continued, "I misspoke earlier. This car is still in stock. If you pick it up now, you can drive it away this afternoon. I'll take care of all the temporary license plate paperwork."

Xu Tian was extremely disgusted by the way she looked at him, the disdain and mockery as if she were looking at an animal. Just as he was about to speak, Zhao Jing waved her hand.

"I bought the car he wanted for him."

Lili's face lit up with joy upon hearing this, but Xu Tian quickly stopped Zhao Jing, saying, "I'll skip the shopping today; I have something to do and I'm leaving first."

After Xu Tian finished speaking, he walked out without looking back. Zhao Jing quickly followed, but Lili, oblivious to the situation, stopped her, asking, "Do you still want this car?"

"What do you want? Can't you see everyone's gone!"

Zhao Jing glared at him irritably and then chased after Xu Tian.

"You've just wasted your time. He's clearly a gigolo who lives off women, and you've even managed to put on that act for him!"

Lili muttered something in annoyance and went back.

Zhao Jing drove up to Xu Tian and blocked his way, saying, "Get in, I'll give you a ride."

Just as Xu Tian was about to refuse, Zhao Jing added, "At least give me some face."

Xu Tian thought for a moment. When Su Nuannuan started her company, the only company in Jiangcheng that could rival her was the Xu Group. Next would be Zhao Jing's family's business. Besides, there was no need to make enemies for Zhang Qian. With that in mind, Xu Tian didn't refuse and got into her car.

"Zhang Qian didn't know you bought a car, did she?" Zhao Jing asked as she drove.

Xu Tian nodded truthfully, but did not reveal that the two were getting a divorce. After all, Zhao Jing was not someone to be trifled with, and he did not want to ruin their divorce because of his loose tongue.

"I heard Zhang Qian's company is in crisis? You know, she didn't even ask me about something this big. I should at least be able to help her," Zhao Jing said with a smile.

Xu Tian glanced at her. "What? You're willing to offend the Xu Group for her sake?"

Zhao Jing continued with a smile, "I'm not that stupid. Although my family is doing quite well in Jiangcheng, we absolutely cannot afford to offend the Xu Group. However, I know some senior executives at the Xu Group, so I can put in a good word for them."

"Oh." Xu Tian didn't say much.

She didn't believe Zhao Jing would be so kind. The two of them had such a bad falling out back then, they wanted the whole of Jiangcheng to know. If it weren't for the Xu Group secretly helping Zhang Qian, Hengtong Group would have been wiped out by the Zhao family long ago. Zhao Jing was just trying to find out how difficult Zhang Qian's problem was so that she could directly step in and bankrupt her company.

How could Xu Tian not see through such a little trick?

Unfortunately, this opportunity cannot be given to Zhao Jing. Hengtong Group is thriving because of him, and he will also be the one to shatter Zhang Qian's dream of becoming a business tycoon.

"You... isn't this the way to the Xu Group?"

Zhao Jing exclaimed in surprise, saying that the more she walked, the more familiar it seemed.

Xu Tian replied casually, "Yes, just leave it at the door for me later."

Zhao Jing was astonished. "You...you're going to the Xu Group? For Zhang Qian?"

At this point, Zhao Jing felt a little jealous. She wasn't short of money; the only thing she had been attracted to was Xu Tian's unwavering devotion to Zhang Qian. Logically, she was superior to Zhang Qian in every way, yet Xu Tian chose her instead of her. She still hadn't swallowed that resentment.

"I've arrived. Thank you for bringing me here."

Xu Tian did not give a direct answer.

"and many more!"

Seeing that Xu Tian had already gotten out of the car, Zhao Jing quickly unbuckled her seatbelt and got out of the car as well.

"The Xu Group is not easy to get into. If you really want to get in, I'll go with you."

"No need, you can go back." Xu Tian refused very decisively.

Just as Zhao Jing was hesitating about whether to go in with him, Zhang Qian suddenly rushed in front of her and blocked Xu Tian's way.

"You...how did you get here?"

As Zhang Qian spoke, she glared fiercely at Zhao Jing, "Did you two come here together?"

Zhao Jing realized this was her chance to turn the tables and end the friendship. She smiled at Zhang Qian, reached out and took Xu Tian's arm, looking at Zhang Qian with the air of a victor.

"Yes, we even had breakfast together, didn't we, Xu Tian?"

"Xu Tian!"

Zhang Qian stared furiously at their intertwined arms. "Is what she said true?"

Xu Tian looked at her noncommittally, his "mind your own business" attitude completely infuriated Zhang Qian.

"You...you've forgotten what she did back then? If I hadn't shown up in time, you would have cheated on me, you know that?"

"How dare you still contact her? When did you two get in touch?!"
