No reconciliation, no forgiveness! Mr. Pei leaves with nothing.

Everyone says that the heiress of the Jiang Group is stunningly beautiful, like a noble rose blooming freely in the night. However, her appearance has never been reported in the newspapers. Everyone says that she is even more beautiful than those female celebrities in the entertainment industry, with fair skin and a beautiful face. No man dislikes her. Song Qingran is also very curious about what she looks like.

"She...is not as good as you."

A gust of wind carried those words into Song Qingran's ears. With just those few words, Song Qingran felt her heart suddenly start racing, her pupils gradually dilating, and the man's deep features reflected in her clear black eyes.

Zuo Xiangnan drove to Yulong Bay and took Song Qingran back to Fan Hua Si Jin.

Nine o'clock in the evening, Jinsha Shallow Bay.

In the study, in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, Pei Zhan's eyes held a deep, unfathomable light. Between his well-defined fingers, a cigarette was held, and the smoke curled upwards, filling the entire study with its aroma. Behind him, on the pear wood desk, lay rows and rows of photographs.

In a top-tier luxury VIP shopping mall, Jiang Hua, dressed in a fitted black velvet dress, with her long, flowing black hair tied with a red rose-patterned headband, looked stunning in the photo. She was a natural beauty, holding a black suit in front of rows of shopping shelves, carefully examining it. Her gaze would occasionally fall on the suit, then on the aloof and ascetic Shen Yebai beside her, comparing the two. It seemed she was dissatisfied with the suit and was changing into another one.

In another photo, Jiang Hua is helping Shen Yebai change his coat, thoughtfully buttoning it up for him…

Later, they went to see a play together, but the huge theater that could hold a thousand people was empty except for the two of them.

In all these photos, whenever the two of them appear together, their personalities are perfectly matched and harmonious.

Pei Zhan was a man too; he wasn't incapable of understanding. He could see the look in Shen Yebai's eyes as he watched Jiang Hua change his clothes.

"Young Master, are you jealous?"

She doesn't deserve it.

"It's best if nothing happens. Young Master, don't forget why you stayed in the capital and the Jiang family. If the Jiang family falls and Miss Jiang finds out it was your doing, no matter how good you are to her, this relationship will be irreparable."

"She will only hate you."

“Having chosen the path of revenge, the young master should not have fallen for her.”

"Have you found out? Ji Liangchuan?" Pei Zhan extinguished the cigarette butt in his hand, which had already burned out and was glowing red.

"Found it..."

...

It was 10:30 p.m., past the one-hour curfew, but luckily her father knew she had gone out with Shen Yebai, otherwise... he would have called to urge her to hurry up.

Jiang Weiguo was also worried about Jiang Hua's health. Jiang Hua is not the same as before and cannot stay outside for too long. He was afraid that she would go to bars and clubs again because she was having fun, and her heart disease would relapse, putting her life in danger at any time.

Jiang Hua ate a late-night snack at home.

Aunt Xu came over with a bowl of cooked dumplings. "Where did Mr. Shen take Miss? I've never seen Miss so happy before."

Jiang Hua held a silver spoon in her hand, resting her chin on the back of her hand. She had been out all day, but her makeup was still impeccable. "I went shopping and then went to see a play. I didn't expect going out to be so tiring. Has Aunt Xu prepared the bathwater? It's so hot today. I'm sweating so much that I'm going to stink."

"Alright, alright, after Miss finishes eating, we'll prepare a bath for her."

Jiang Hua nodded, "After you've finished doing all this, Aunt Xu should get some rest."

Xu Ma was somewhat surprised. "Miss, you've become sensible and know how to care for others. It seems Mr. Shen really treats you well."

"Okay."

At least for now, I don't hate it too much.

As for that woman…

She didn't have any romantic feelings for Shen Yebai; they were just childhood friends. Going out with him was just a way to pass the time. Jiang Hua didn't really care about his relationship with that woman.

Jiang Hua has lived in this circle since she was a child. It's normal for a man to have several women around him, not to mention those illegitimate children.

She didn't want an arranged marriage, mostly for these reasons. She just didn't expect that even if he wasn't from a prominent family in this circle, or even if he came from an ordinary, impoverished background, he would still be fickle.

Jiang Hua is too lazy to think about love and romance now; she only wants to live in the moment and take it one day at a time.

Just do what makes her happy.

Jiang Hua ate something and then went back to her room upstairs. Xu Ma prepared everything, placing the heart medication within easy reach on the bedside table, along with a glass of water. After doing all this, Xu Ma went back to rest.

Sitting in front of her dressing table, Jiang Hua was removing her makeup when she inadvertently noticed an extremely ugly bracelet in the jewelry box in front of her.

She had no idea where the bracelet came from, so she picked it up and threw it into the trash can next to her.

After taking a shower, Jiang Hua applied body lotion and went to bed feeling refreshed.

After that incident, Jiang Hua didn't dare to sleep with the lights off. Every time she took a shower and saw the scar on her shoulder, she felt a tightness in her chest, and she knew she would never get over it.

Twelve o'clock in the evening.

Jiang Hua had another nightmare. She dreamt of the crazy woman with a face covered in blood, hiding on the floor of her bed. Every night, the woman would sneak up and start hacking at Jiang Hua.

She quickly opened her eyes. She thought the dream was scary enough, but what was even scarier was the figure that suddenly appeared. The dim light reflected that slender figure.

"Pei Zhan, you scared me."

The man looked down at her, his dark eyes fixed on her, his emotions unreadable.

Jiang Hua was soaked in sweat and felt a little hot. She reached for the bedside lamp and turned it on. She sat up and leaned against the bed, picked up the bottle of medicine from the bedside table and swallowed it. Pei Zhan sat on the bed and poured her another glass of warm water.

Seeing the person who hadn't returned for so long, Jiang Hua didn't feel much. She looked at the message on her phone under her pillow: "Congratulations! You've finally got Song Qingran by your side. Now you can see her anytime and don't have to worry about her being taken away by someone."

Pei Zhan put the water glass aside. Jiang Hua looked at her phone without looking up, sending messages to Shen Bao'er. It was almost one o'clock, and she was still thinking of inviting her to the club.

Jiang Hua forwarded the message Shen Bao'er sent her, along with the video of her ordering a male model, to Shen Yebai.

At this moment, Shen Yebai, who was handling official business at the Shen family, heard his phone vibrate. He opened the message sent by Jiang Hua, his brows furrowed, and he immediately dialed his secretary's number to bring the reckless Shen Bao'er back to the house.

In the vast Shen family, there was only Shen Yebai. Shen Bao'er was unrestrained from a young age, and no one but Shen Yebai could control her.

Shen Yebai replied: I will have someone bring her back.

The message was replied to almost instantly. Jiang Hua smiled and pressed the power button on her phone, turning off the screen.

"It's so late, is something the matter?"

Only after doing all this did Jiang Hua finally spare him a glance.

Seeing that he didn't speak but just kept staring at her, Jiang Hua felt strange. She threw back the covers, got out of bed barefoot, and stepped onto the soft carpet. "Why is Song Qingran, who used to be surrounded by beautiful flowers and watching over you, coming to Yulong Bay?"
