Transmigrated as a vicious stepmother, I raised a child who became a heartthrob.

"President Jiang, want to go out and have some fun? I mentioned there was a competition."

The message said that Jiang Chongwen was planning something. Jiang Zhuhua had been on guard, but hadn't seen him make any move.

Shen Lin sent the message first. The last time the two met was at the hot pot restaurant.

The hot pot restaurant's operations have now stabilized, and the two haven't been in contact for a while. Jiang Zhuhua initially thought they were just being polite.

"Okay, give me an address."

Because I promised Li Jiao, I have to get along well with her.

"Okay. Mr. Jiang, do you have a car available for purchase? Or would you like a car provided here?"

Shen Lin sat in the car, dangling his keys, while a group of people headed towards the racetrack.

It's been a sunny day lately, the weather's been pretty good. I went for a run.

"I didn't buy it. I don't participate in these kinds of activities often."

Jiang Zhuhua spoke very honestly.

"It's alright. I have extras."

"It's nothing serious," Shen Lin agreed. After hanging up the phone, he looked at the person next to him.

"President Jiang is really aloof, but not as aloof as you."

Shen Lin approached Chu Lian as if he had no bones.

"Sit up straight."

Chu Lian shifted her body to the other side of the car. What's wrong with this guy? He's always sitting there like he has no bones.

"How could you despise me?" Shen Lin looked incredulous, pretending to wipe away tears.

"Can you be serious? Tell me, why did you think of bringing her into our circle?"

Chu Lian pushed his head to one side, feeling extremely annoyed.

Jiang Zhuhua works in the entertainment industry, and later opened a restaurant. In any case, he's not in the same circle as them.

There might be some connection in the future, but not much. Especially with Shen Lin.

"Isn't that the eldest daughter of the Li family? The two of them used to get along really well, but I don't know why they stopped. Now, the eldest daughter of the Li family is accompanied by a powerless little maid."

Shen Lin shrugged, not caring if the driver in front heard him.

"Perfect timing! I'll ask when we go out to have some fun."

Although this Mr. Jiang isn't in their circle, Li Jiao is. They just don't interact much usually.

"Logically speaking, after Jiang Zhuhua's divorce from Pei Hong and his falling out with his family, Li Jiao shouldn't be this calm. But the two of them haven't been communicating much because of these things. Aren't you curious?"

Shen Lin slightly abandoned his nonchalant attitude, and his eyes became somewhat deep.

"You want to be on good terms with the Li family?"

Shen Lin's business focus isn't on real estate, so the two families don't usually communicate much. Chu Lian was only guessing.

"Let's take a look. I don't want to go against the Pei family. I just don't know how much Jiang Zhuhua can tell me."

Shen Lin took out a cigarette, intending to smoke it, but then put it back.

"The real estate market is now declining due to various policies, and the domestic economic situation is not very clear."

Those of them who are in business always pay close attention to various news and understand social conditions. Entering the real estate industry at this time would almost be suicidal.

“My family is also wealthy, and I wouldn’t call myself a spoiled brat, would I? It would be my honor to marry Miss Li.”

The shipbuilding industry is gradually stabilizing, the market is becoming saturated, and the market size is limited.

Industries always go through periods of decline, so it is necessary to find new ways out.

Shen Lin calmly dropped this bombshell, making these matters seem trivial to him.

"I see. Wouldn't it be faster for you to get to know her yourself?"

Chu Lian asked.

"You're so silly. I suddenly realized you're not very smart at all."

Shen Lin stretched, but this was indeed one of the main reasons why he was happy to play with Chu Lian.

"Bringing Jiang Zhuhua along will allow us to find out about their relationship, saving us from offending others. It would be even better if she could act as a go-between, so that our intentions aren't too obvious."

Shen Lin said lazily.

"I'm going to keep my appointment."

Before leaving, Jiang Zhuhua sent a message to Li Jiao, telling her about the matter.

"Go ahead, but be careful. Oh, and if they ask about our relationship, just say we broke up. Think of a reason yourself. Just let me know."

Li Jiao was busy with her own things and only replied when she had a spare moment.

She's not the kind of person who has a lot of free time. She has a lot of things to take care of.

"If possible, I'll act as a go-between for the two of us. You don't need to worry about the rest."

In this matter, Jiang Zhuhua only needs to act as a go-between.

Li Jiao knew Jiang Zhuhua's true capabilities, so she naturally wouldn't push him to the brink.

"it is good."

Jiang Zhuhua simply nodded.

The racetrack was quite far away, and it took a lot of effort to get there. It was a freezing day, and there weren't many people there. The cars sped by, creating a particularly sharp sound in the wind.

Jiang Zhuhua wasn't a big racer, so she didn't drive very fast. In their reckless, high-stakes competition, she didn't achieve any significant ranking. After all, while others might be willing to risk their lives, she was.

And the purpose of coming here is not to play that kind of life-or-death speed game.

After driving around with Shen Lin and his group of friends for a few laps, Jiang Zhuhua got tired of driving and simply got out to refuel them.

Pretending to be in a lively atmosphere, they feigned innocence and blended into the crowd.

"Let's go, let's take a break and sit in the lounge for a while."

Shen Lin only ran a few laps, letting the others continue playing, before pushing Jiang Zhuhua towards the rest room.

"I'm so thirsty, waiter, bring me a few pots of tea."

There weren't many people in the lounge, but Shen Lin's voice was clear.

Soon, several pots of tea were brought to the table.

"The water at your restaurant is not as good."

Shen Lin took a sip, sighed, and placed the teacup on the table.

"I gave away the tea you gave me last time. I should have kept a few more boxes for myself. Sister, do you have any left? Can I buy a few boxes later?"

The boy sat crookedly on the sofa, looking carefree and unruly, yet his obedient manner when calling her "sister" was incredibly endearing.

It had a deliberately coquettish feel to it.

"Yes. If you want some, I'll get it for you later."

Having an ulterior motive, Jiang Zhuhua wouldn't be stingy with this small amount of tea.

"By the way, I told you I'd set you up on a blind date. Have you thought it over? You've been divorced for so long, don't you want to find someone?"

Shen Lin took a few more sips of tea, then leaned over with a mysterious look on his face, as if he were whispering something important.

"Who are you trying to introduce me to? It's not another one of your friends, is it?"

The scene of introducing someone to another person last time was so memorable that Jiang Zhuhua almost involuntarily thought of someone who had been cheated.

"Oh no, it's not him. That ice block doesn't talk much, he's so boring. If the two of you get together, won't the world freeze over?"
