Jiang Youli recalled the scene when Qi Huan came to the village to find her on the first day and thought that he was indeed a man who was about to become the heir of the Qi family, the richest family in Beijing, with such keen insight.

Given her bare mud house, probably no one would notice that the medicinal herbs she hung on the wall were valuable.

But Qi Huan noticed it immediately.

Not only was he insightful, but he also had a broad perspective, which suggests that he frequently visited the largest auction house in Beijing and could remember the rare medicinal materials that were auctioned there.

"I see." Jiang Youli understood.

Qi Huan said, "It's their loss that Jiang Yangxu's family disowns you because of their adopted daughter, Jiang Yonghe."

Jiang Youli took out her needle kit and began to administer acupuncture to Qi Huan.

“From the moment I learned that they had known all along that Jiang Yonghe was a substitute, but had never intended to take me back, they were already condemned to death in my heart.” She pinched the silver needles between two fingers, picked up Jiang Yangxu and Qin Yulian’s family, and without any change in expression, stuck the silver needles in her hand one by one around Qi Huan’s knees. “The reason I chose to go back to the Jiang family this time is to make them lose everything they have now, and to atone for their heartlessness.”

At this point, she asked, "What about you? Many people outside think that you might not be able to keep your position as heir."

Qi Huan laughed and said, "Let them think that way. I can also take this opportunity to find out who was human and who was ghost before, and deal with them all at once."

Jiang Youli smiled and said, "Then I wish us all the best."

……

After leaving the pavilion, Jiang Xing returned the call to his secretary.

As soon as the call connected, a woman's anxious voice came through the other end.

"President Jiang, why haven't you answered my calls? I was so worried, I thought something had happened to you, and I almost wanted to go to your house to find you."

Jiang Xing said, "Xiao Yang, call a car to pick me up. I'll send you my location."

"Okay, I'll come pick you up right away."

after an hour--

Secretary Xiao Yang got out of the car and saw Jiang Xing leaning on a cane. Her eyes widened. "President Jiang, what happened to your leg?"

Jiang Xing said coldly, "Don't ask questions you shouldn't ask."

Seeing how frightening he looked, Secretary Xiao Yang dared not say anything more, but simply went over and helped him into the back seat of the car.

After closing the car door, Secretary Xiao Yang couldn't help but secretly glance at Jiang Xing's right leg.

Jiang Xing asked with a stern face, "What's going on at the company? Why have they called me so many times?"

Secretary Xiao Yang snapped out of her reverie and said, "The business manager wanted to report to you this morning that the editor of the great author Li Li Yuan Shang has replied that a small meet-and-greet will be held in Beijing at the end of the month. At that time, the great author Li Li Yuan Shang will decide on the spot who to sell the copyright of the final part of the novel to. Moreover, the great author Li Li Yuan Shang specifically emphasized that the person in charge with the most say in the company must personally attend the meet-and-greet."

Holding a meet-and-greet? And with the company's most authoritative person in charge?

On this Lili Plain, relying on his current fame, he made some very arrogant demands.

But she certainly has the ability to do so.

The value of her last novel was immeasurable for those of them who ran entertainment companies.

"Has the specific time and location for the meeting been decided?"

"The business manager said to wait for the website to send a specific invitation letter."

"Okay, have the business manager keep an eye on this and tell him that I will be attending the meeting with him."

"it is good."

Liliyuan just wanted to see which entertainment company was the most sincere, right?

The fact that the company's CEO personally attended the meeting shows a lot of sincerity!

Now that his right leg is useless and he is poisoned, if the company cannot produce more outstanding results, he will probably end up in the same situation as Qi Huan in the Qi family, and his grandfather will take back the control of Starlight Entertainment.

He had to secure the copyright to Lili Yuanshang's last novel to prove his abilities!

……

The treatment ended close to 1 p.m.

Jiang Youli pulled out the last silver needle and looked at Qi Huan, whose face was pale. "Today's treatment is over. Go back and get some rest."

"It's already noon, how about we have lunch together first?" Qi Huan pulled down his trouser leg, his gaze fixed on Jiang Youli, his voice light and calm, as if the pain just now was just a dream.

Just as Jiang Youli was about to reply, her phone rang.

She looked at it and saw it was an unfamiliar number.

After Jiang Youli put the silver needles back into her needle case, she answered the call, and Duan Jinghan's voice immediately came from the other end.

"Jiang Youli, where are you?"

Jiang Youli blurted out, "We're about to arrive at the train station."

"Okay, wait for me at the train station, I'll come pick you up now."

"Okay." After saying that, Jiang Youli hung up the phone, met Qi Huan's questioning gaze, and put her phone back in her pocket. "It was my ex-boyfriend calling."

Qi Huan raised an eyebrow. "You're still in contact with him?"

Jiang Youli said, "I've blocked many of his numbers, but he still keeps contacting me, saying he wants to give me a chance to be his sugar daddy. I'm going to play him for a fool and make him back down."

Qi Huan said, "Your little tricks might not be enough to make him back down. Otherwise, he would still be shamelessly coming after you even though he has already returned to the Duan family in Beijing and become a rich young master."

Jiang Youli felt like laughing. "You're not trying to say that he truly loves me and can't bear to part with me, are you?"

"Of course, if he doesn't really like you, why would he bother with you now that he's a rich young master?" Qi Huan said. "As a man, if he doesn't like you, why would he do something so degrading?"

Jiang Youli found it even more ridiculous. "No way, he just got recognized and then came to me to break up. Is that what you call liking someone? His liking is really cheap."

Qi Huan said, "Because he likes you, but he can't let go of the vanity that his new identity brings him. When he first broke up with you, he probably just wanted to take the lead in the relationship. If I'm not mistaken, when you were dating him, he was always the one who put in more effort and was more proactive with you, right?"

Jiang Youli thought about it and realized it was true.

She saved Duan Jinghan's life, and afterwards Duan Jinghan insisted on repaying her with his body and pestering her. At that time, Duan Jinghan was just a poor boy, but he used every means he could think of to pursue her.

Sending flowers, jewelry, handbags...

Jiang Youli refused to accept the gifts because their value far exceeded Duan Jinghan's ability to support them.

Then, every day after work, Duan Jinghan would personally ride his old electric scooter to the village to find her, cook and clean for her, and help her prepare medicinal herbs, almost without fail, rain or shine.

Duan Jinghan's persistence day after day impressed Jiang Youli, and two months ago she was finally moved by his sincerity and accepted his confession to date him.

Strangely, just a few days after she agreed to date him, Duan Jinghan's enthusiasm for her suddenly dropped. The most obvious sign was that he stopped coming to her every day, rain or shine, and he wasn't as proactive as before.

Sometimes, even if he didn't come to the village to look for her, he would still call her to ask how she was doing.

Jiang Youli remembered that just a week before Duan Jinghan broke up with her, he suddenly asked her on the phone:

"Youli, do you think I'm not good enough for you?"
