"You're overthinking it," Xu Tian said calmly.

Zhang Qian looked at him with the air of a virtuous wife and loving mother.

“You’ve taken on such a big project on your first day at the company. Things aren’t as simple as you think. I’ve been in this industry for many years. If you need anything, I can help you.”

"Including any problems you encounter."

Xu Tian originally loathed Zhang Qian to the extreme. He would treat her the same way if she spoke harshly to him. But now she was acting all knowledgeable and reasonable, which left Xu Tian at a loss for what to do.

"What do you think, Xu Tian?" Zhang Qian smiled.

"Say it! Say it! What the hell are you talking about!"

Zhao Jing shouted loudly, and Xu Tian was pleasantly surprised to find that she had returned sometime earlier.

When Zhang Qian saw Zhao Jing, her face also turned ugly, but when she thought about how she still had to win over Xu Tian, ​​she quickly regained her smile.

"A weasel offering New Year's greetings to a chicken is definitely up to no good!" Zhao Jing said, pulling Xu Tian toward her.

Zhang Qian smiled and said, "Xu Tian and I have been together for so many years. Whether it's good or bad, Xu Tian has his own judgment!"

Zhao Jing snorted coldly, "We're all women, don't think I don't know what you're up to."

"Then tell me, what's wrong with me?" Zhang Qian countered.

Zhao Jing glared at her, "You always thought Xu Tian was useless and a good-for-nothing, and that leaving him was inevitable for you. But you never expected that after the divorce, Xu Tian would be doing so well, and his career would be going from strength to strength, while you..."

Zhao Jing paused for a few seconds, "You feel that life after the divorce isn't as wonderful as you imagined. In fact, Chen Feng is even more useless than you think Xu Tian is, so you regret it and want Xu Tian back in your life to be your supporting character!"

Although Zhang Qian did not refute, it was not hard to see that her complexion was getting worse and worse. If she hadn't been forcing herself to control her expression, she really would have lost her temper by now.

What Zhao Jing said was true; every word felt like a stab to her lungs. But it was precisely because it was true that she couldn't accept it.

“My business with Xu Tian is none of the business of outsiders,” Zhang Qian said.

Zhao Jing was so angry she laughed. "Then let Xu Tian make the decision himself!"

As she spoke, Zhao Jing looked at Xu Tian and asked, "Are you coming with me now, or staying here to argue with her?"

If it were just the two of them, Xu Tian would naturally choose Zhao Jing.

When Xu Tian got into Zhao Jing's car without hesitation, Zhang Qian's mood plummeted.

Since Xu Tian wants revenge, let him get his revenge. As long as he's vented his anger, he'll come back to her.

Throughout the journey, Zhao Jing was in a very good mood, naturally because Xu Tian had chosen her.

"My car is still at the construction site," Xu Tian said.

Zhao Jing smiled brightly, "It's fine to leave it for a day. I'll bring it over tomorrow."

Xu Tian pouted, "Didn't you leave? Why are you back?"

Zhao Jing grinned, "If I leave, won't she get her way? You have to fight for your feelings, don't you understand?"

"not to mention…"

Zhao Jing glanced at Xu Tian, ​​then laughed again.

Xu Tian quickly covered himself up tightly. "What do you want to do?"

"I've realized you're interested in me, haven't you?"

Xu Tian's face darkened. "How did you figure that out?"

Zhao Jing said to herself, "If you're not interested in me, why did you choose to get into my car?"

Xu Tian was frustrated. Did he even have a choice at that time?

One is his ex-wife whom he despises, and the other is his business partner with whom he works. Even a fool would know which one to choose.

Besides, there were only two choices, so he didn't really have a choice.

"Anyway, you did a great job today, so I'll reward you with a big meal!"

Zhao Jing hummed a little tune as she led Xu Tian to a five-star hotel.

Xu Tian frowned. This is the grand feast?

Could the feast Zhao Jing was talking about be herself?

Thinking of this, Xu Tian looked at her in horror.

"You...you wouldn't want to..."

Before he could finish speaking, Zhao Jing led him inside.

"Go change your clothes, we're the main characters today."

To Xu Tian's astonishment, Zhao Jing walked into another room.

When Xu Tiancai arrived at the banquet hall after changing his clothes, he suddenly remembered that Zhao Pengfei was throwing a big banquet for Zhao Jing to celebrate the start of the project that night.

Xu Tian breathed a sigh of relief. He had thought Zhao Jing was going to force herself on him today, but it seemed he had been overthinking it.

"How about it, are you disappointed?" Zhao Jing raised an eyebrow beside him.

Xu Tian looked down at her and asked, "You can read minds?"

Zhao Jing smiled without saying a word. This banquet was specially held for her, but her purpose was not to show off, but to let the outside world know that her surname was Zhao!

Upright and honorable!

Xu Tian, ​​on the other hand, served as a supporting character, accompanying her as she moved between various bosses.

Zhao Jing was, after all, a girl. Although Zhao Pengfei was there to keep things under control, drinking and socializing were unavoidable. Xu Tian couldn't just watch her drink alone, so he had to act as her protector and drink the wine himself.

By the time the banquet ended, Xu Tian was already quite dizzy and lightheaded from drinking.

Zhao Jing dragged Xu Tian directly to the hotel room, threw him onto the bed, and went to take a shower herself.

When they came out, Xu Tian was still lying on the bed, fast asleep in the same position. Zhao Jing curled her lips into a smile, then pressed herself against him…

"Depend on!"

Not long after, accompanied by curses, Zhao Jing quickly got up, wrapped herself in a towel, and rushed to the bathroom.

The next day, Xu Tian got out of bed with a headache and found everything in the room unfamiliar. He instinctively jumped up.

Zhao Jing opened her eyes, still half asleep.

What are you doing! You almost scared me to death!

Xu Tian looked at her warily. "Last night, you didn't do anything to me, did you?"

Zhao Jing laughed in anger, "I'm the one who's at a disadvantage in doing this, okay? Are you even a man?!"

Xu Tian blushed to the roots of his ears. "Men shouldn't be so casual."

Zhao Jing rolled her eyes at him, then flipped the blanket over, revealing a blood-red stain on the white sheet, which stunned Xu Tian.

Did they really do it yesterday? And Zhao Jing is still a virgin?

"Don't overthink it. I got my period yesterday, so I missed our time together." Zhao Jing said with a regretful expression.

Xu Tian finally breathed a sigh of relief, "You should have said so earlier!"

"What? Are you satisfied with this result?" Zhao Jing was unhappy.

In what way does she fall short of Zhang Qian? Family background, appearance, figure—she surpasses Zhang Qian in every aspect, okay?

If there's one area where the two haven't compared, it's their bedroom skills. It's just a pity that her period came at the wrong time last night, otherwise she would have made Xu Tian fall head over heels for her.

"Are you even a woman? Can't you be a little more reserved!" Xu Tian immediately followed up.

Zhao Jing disagreed, "Can't women take the initiative? Besides, I like you so much!"

Xu Tian was speechless at Zhao Jing's words. It wasn't that he couldn't try, but he hadn't been intimate with Zhang Qian for so many years. What if he didn't perform well and Zhao Jing found out that he was still a virgin? He would become a laughing stock for the rest of his life!
