Huo Jiarong felt an inexplicable lump in her throat. Thinking about the whole story, it was entirely her fault, but Ming Qianye took all the blame for her. She… really didn’t know what to say.

“Qianye… I… thank you… Can I treat you to dinner tonight?”

Huo Jiarong said.

“Not ideal. Time is tight these days. Go do your work. Don’t look for me if you have nothing important.”

Ming Qianye’s tone was very indifferent, but Huo Jiarong couldn’t help but laugh.

“No matter how busy I am, I still want to harass you. Why don’t I look for you…”

‘Beep beep…’

Before Huo Jiarong could finish, Ming Qianye had already hung up.

Otherwise, this woman could really go on forever. Ming Qianye didn’t have the patience to chat with her.

Wiping her sweat, she was about to put away her cell phone when Shen Tinglan’s face suddenly flashed across her mind. After some thought, Ming Qianye took a deep breath and finally opened WeChat to send a message to the Devil.

Ming Qianye: Senior, thank you for your help regarding Jiarong’s problem.

After sending the message, Ming Qianye put away her cell phone. It was his business whether he replied or not. She had done her best to be polite.

…

However, not long after Ming Qianye sent the message, her phone suddenly vibrated.

It was an SMS message from her cell phone, and it was notifying her of a transfer to her account!

Stunned for a moment, she clicked on it and saw that it was a large sum of money that Shen Tinglan had transferred into her account. She glanced at the number and was speechless…

As expected of the Devil, the big boss among the rich, the fighter jet among big bosses.

However, why was he giving her money now?

Just as Ming Qianye was still speculating about the Devil’s intentions, she received another message on her cell phone. She opened it and saw that it was a message from Shen Tinglan.

Shen Tinglan: Go and get the bracelet back.

Bracelet?

Was she referring to the bracelet that she had sold to Huo Jiarong?

Ming Qianye frowned instantly.

She really didn’t like his pressuring and commanding tone. Her heart sank and she immediately replied.

Ming Qianye: Why do you have to go through so much trouble for something that’s already sold? I don’t like it anyway. Only a fool with lots of money would fool around like that.

Soon, the Devil replied.

Shen Tinglan: You don’t care about the gift I gave you, and you don’t even want to see it in front of you, right?

Seeing this, Ming Qianye frowned. She was already feeling the anger in her heart, but she could still control it.

Ming Qianye: I never said that.

Shen Tinglan: Since you didn’t, take it back. The money I gave you is enough for you to buy a few.

Ming Qianye was about to go crazy!

She had always felt that she was someone who was emotionally stable and could restrain herself very well. However, this man, this Devil, had a way to make her so angry that she wanted to stomp her feet. She wished she could rush over and shut his mouth and give him a good beating!

It was too derogatory!

He had never considered her feelings!

She had already sold it to Huo Jiarong and even took the money. Why did he disregard her reputation and insist that she take it back?

Did he think she did not care about her reputation?!

Ming Qianye took a deep breath. Her cold and attractive face appeared hostile. Her starry eyes were also filled with coldness as she replied.

Ming Qianye: I won’t take it back. Since you’ve already given it to me, it’s mine. How I deal with it is my business. It has nothing to do with you.

Ming Qianye decided to ignore him.

However, the Devil’s reply was.

Shen Tinglan: In that case, I’ll get it for you.

Ming Qianye didn’t respond.

…

No matter how good Ming Qianye’s temper was, she was going to go crazy!

No matter how good her temper was, she could not tolerate such a derogatory thing. Moreover, no matter what message she sent after that, Shen Tinglan did not reply!

After gulping down a few mouthfuls of water, Ming Qianye forced herself to calm down. After a while, her eyes darkened. She silently found Tang Feng’s number and dialed it…

At this moment, in Canglan Villa.

Tang Feng was standing at the door, quietly looking at his master in the piano room.

A series of soothing piano sounds were pouring out from his master’s slender and good-looking fingers. It was beautiful and moving…

Tang Feng felt that his master was amazing. He was good at everything. He was smart and decisive. He was noble like the light of the sun and the moon, making people admire him. However, he could always feel that his master rarely had good times and was not happy.

Just like the song he was playing now. Although it sounded good, one could feel a faint sense of melancholy when one listened to it…

Master didn’t seem to be in a good mood. His exquisite and handsome face was covered in a faint layer of coldness…

The phone in his pocket rang for a while before he reacted and hurriedly took out his cell phone.

When he saw the caller ID on his phone screen, his eyes lit up. He immediately walked out and carefully picked up the call.

“Hello? Miss Ming?”

Of course, Tang Feng’s voice was very careful, afraid of disturbing his master inside.

Ming Qianye heaved a sigh of relief and asked, “It’s me… Mr. Tang Feng. Where is Shen Tinglan now?”

Ming Qianye decided to ask directly. This matter could only be resolved better if she explained it in person. Otherwise, with the Devil’s temperament, it would be very difficult for her to change the decision he had already made. Moreover, the situation was urgent now!

She did not want Shen Tinglan to send someone to look for Huo Jiarong.

When Tang Feng heard this, a smile immediately appeared on his face. He immediately said, “Young Master is in Canglan. He just returned… He’s in the piano room. He doesn’t seem to be in a good mood. Miss Ming, please come back quickly!”

“He hasn’t arranged for you to look for Huo Jiarong yet, right?”

Ming Qianye asked.

“Huh? Miss Huo? Why would I be looking for Miss Huo?”

Tang Feng asked in surprise.

Only then did Ming Qianye heave a sigh of relief and hurriedly say, “It’s nothing. If he wants you to go, don’t go first. We’ll talk when I get back.”

As Ming Qianye spoke, she hung up the phone helplessly and rushed back to take a shower. She changed her clothes and rushed to Canglan Courtyard.

…

When Ming Qianye’s car arrived at Canglan Courtyard, it was already past seven in the evening.

Dinner was already prepared in the villa.

Tang Feng came out to welcome her. When he looked up, he saw Ming Qianye walking in in a hurry. She also looked like she was in a bad mood.

“Miss Ming, you’re back… Dinner is ready…”

“Where’s Shen Tinglan?”

Ming Qianye didn’t wait for him to finish and asked directly.

Tang Feng had already noticed that something was wrong. However, it was normal for a couple to quarrel. He quickly said, “Miss Ming… Did something happen? Young Master wasn’t in a good mood just now. I went up to call him a few times, but he didn’t come down to eat… He’s still busy in the study…”

Before he could finish his sentence, Ming Qianye had already gone upstairs!
