After the divorce, my ex-husband's cousin tricked me into getting a marriage certificate.

Xu Qing choked, "Hehe, Brother Chuan, don't take it so seriously. If you take it so seriously, you'll lose."

Lin Mengchuan glared at Xu Qing.

Xu Qing mustered her courage and said, "I'm serious, Brother Chuan. Lin Fei has already gone abroad, and Qiao Ran has started over. I think you should start over too."

As the saying goes, the best way to forget a relationship is to start a new one.

Lin Mengchuan lowered his eyes and did not refute.

Xu Qing felt there was a chance, and couldn't help but hum a love song.

If he could facilitate the marriage between Lin Mengchuan and Jiang Jingjing, then Lin Mengchuan would probably stop bothering Qiao Ran.

Xu Qing suddenly felt very noble, helping Qiao Ran so much despite having no relation to her.

If Qiao Ran knew, would she be moved?

Less than five minutes after Xu Qing and Lin Mengchuan entered the private room, Jiang Jingjing arrived with five or six of her friends.

This delighted Lin Mengchuan and his gang of rich second-generation kids.

Xu Qing deliberately arranged for Jiang Jingjing to sit next to Lin Mengchuan, and everyone else immediately understood what was going on.

They all wisely went off to play somewhere else, so as not to disturb the two of them.

Jiang Jingjing offered to pour wine for Lin Mengchuan, asking him as she did so, "Young Master Lin, do you usually watch TV dramas?"

"I won't look," Lin Mengchuan blurted out, then seemed to realize his attitude was inappropriate and added, "Sorry, it's related to my lifestyle; I pay more attention to financial news."

Jiang Jingjing smiled. "I understand. After all, Zhuohai Group is such a large corporation. Your father must be very strict with you, right? Does Young Master Lin have any siblings?"

Lin Mengchuan's lips twitched. "No, my mother only gave birth to me. However, I don't know if my father has any illegitimate children. No one has come to claim kinship yet, and it's hard to say what will happen in the future."

"You know, in wealthy families, all sorts of dramatic things happen. For example, there was this woman who said she was pregnant with my child, and guess what happened after the baby was born?"

"What's wrong?" Jiang Jingjing held her breath and looked at Lin Mengchuan.

She had heard some gossip about Lin Mengchuan having an illegitimate child and divorcing Qiao Ran.

Lin Mengchuan picked up his wine glass, took a sip, and continued, "It turned out that the child was blond and blue-eyed."

Jiang Jingjing's mouth dropped open, her face filled with disbelief.

Lin Mengchuan chuckled self-deprecatingly, “So, Miss Jiang, the man in front of you is the dumbest man in the world. He was completely fooled by a woman and ruined his marriage because of it.”

Jiang Jingjing didn't know what to say for a moment.

Lin Mengchuan suddenly turned to look at Jiang Jingjing and asked, "Miss Jiang, have you ever been in a relationship?"

Jiang Jingjing was stunned, and lied, saying, "I've never been in a relationship."

I only had secret relationships with a few bosses, but those didn't count as romantic relationships.

Lin Mengchuan took out his cigarette case, pulled out a cigarette, and handed it to Jiang Jingjing.

Jiang Jingjing paused for a moment, took the cigarette, put it in her mouth, and lit it with the lighter on the table.

He then shoved the cigarette into Lin Mengchuan's mouth. "Young Master Lin, in life, you're bound to encounter some scoundrels. Don't take it to heart. Besides, the truth will eventually come out. Those who deceive you will definitely get their comeuppance."

"As for Young Master Lin and Miss Qiao, perhaps they are not destined to be together."

Jiang Jingjing had a faint jasmine scent, which was very similar to Qiao Ran's fragrance.

Lin Mengchuan guessed that Jiang Jingjing and Qiao Ran used the same perfume.

Therefore, he did not reject Jiang Jingjing.

After taking a drag of his cigarette, Lin Mengchuan raised his glass and clinked it with Jiang Jingjing's, "Ms. Jiang, Happy New Year."

Jiang Jingjing paused slightly, then smiled and raised her glass, "Young Master Lin, Happy New Year, I wish you all your dreams come true in the new year."

……

the next morning.

When Lin Mengchuan woke up, he saw Jiang Jingjing walking towards him with a cup of coffee.

She was only wearing a white shirt, which seemed to be his clothes.

"You're awake. I made some coffee to wake you up," Jiang Jingjing said, sitting down by the bed and handing the coffee to Lin Mengchuan.

Lin Mengchuan looked at the messy bed and clothes on the floor, rubbed his aching temples, and asked, "Where is this? How did I get here? What happened to the two of us last night?"

"I'm asleep," Jiang Jingjing answered decisively. "This is my apartment. We drank a lot of alcohol together last night, and you insisted on taking me home yourself. So I invited you in for a cup of honey water to sober up."

"Then we naturally slept together."

Lin Mengchuan felt that this situation was familiar, just like the one with Lin Fei.

He was a little unhappy.

Jiang Jingjing noticed Lin Mengchuan's change in mood and chuckled, "Young Master Lin, are you afraid I'll cling to you? Don't worry, we're all adults. If we're happy, we'll be together; if we're not, then we'll just leave it at that."

"You really don't need to be nervous. In fact, I'm the one who should be nervous. I'm a popular female celebrity."

Seeing how frankly Jiang Jingjing spoke, Lin Mengchuan believed her.

He lowered his head, took a sip of coffee, and said softly, "I shouldn't have drunk so much, Miss Jiang. I will make it up to you."

Jiang Jingjing pouted, "Young Master Lin, that's not very meaningful. Compensate me? Give me money or gifts? Isn't that insulting? I'm not a woman who earns money with my body."

Lin Mengchuan: "...Sorry."

Jiang Jingjing smiled and glanced at Lin Mengchuan, "Besides, I also bumped into your car. When the repair quote comes out, remember to tell me, I still have to compensate you for the repair cost."

"Forget about the repair money, it won't cost much." Lin Mengchuan looked at Jiang Jingjing's clothes. If he asked her to take them off and return them to him, would she misunderstand?

Jiang Jingjing understood Lin Mengchuan's gaze. She stood up and apologized as she took off her clothes, "I'm sorry, I was still half asleep when I woke up and grabbed the wrong clothes."

Lin Mengchuan didn't expect Jiang Jingjing to be so uninhibited, taking off her clothes in front of him, so he quickly turned his face away.

But the intense scene of their lovemaking last night flashed vividly in his mind.

He really slept with her.

At this moment, he remembered that it was he who had taken the initiative.

Of course, Jiang Jingjing did not refuse.

Jiang Jingjing handed the shirt back to Lin Mengchuan, "Do you want to take a shower?"

Lin Mengchuan paused for a moment, then said, "Okay, if you don't mind."

Jiang Jingjing: "If you don't mind, I'll take you."

Before going to take a shower, Lin Mengchuan called Xu Qing and asked him to buy a change of clothes anywhere.

Xu Qing seemed completely unsurprised.

When Lin Mengchuan came out of the bathroom, Jiang Jingjing had already changed into a set of home pajamas. She walked over carrying a bag and said with a smile, "Young Master Xu brought this to you. He's waiting for you in the living room."

"Hmm," Lin Mengchuan took the bag and turned to go back to the bathroom to change his clothes.

When he came out again, he was dressed in a suit and tie.

Jiang Jingjing leaned against the wall, smiling as she looked at him.

Lin Mengchuan glanced at Jiang Jingjing and asked, "What are you looking at? Is my face not clean?"

Jiang Jingjing walked over and reached out to straighten Lin Mengchuan's coat. "You're so handsome, I can't bear to look away."

Lin Mengchuan suddenly grabbed Jiang Jingjing's hand and warned in a deep voice, "Miss Jiang, don't fall in love with me. There is another woman in my heart, and I can't make room for a second woman. Please forget about what happened last night."

"Once I walk out of your house, we won't need to contact each other anymore, and you don't need to pay back the car repair fee."

Jiang Jingjing stared at Lin Mengchuan with a meaningful smile and asked, "You still like Qiao Ran, don't you?"
