After saying that, the corners of Jiang Li’s mouth curled up as she waited gently for Zhou Chen to walk over and hold her hand. As they left, Jiang Li bumped into Xing Su. It was unknown if Jiang Li did it on purpose or accidentally. Xing Su’s brain, which had been corroded by alcohol, reacted half a beat slower. After Jiang Li and Zhou Chen left, she realized what Jiang Li meant.

“That adulterous couple!” Xing Su cursed belatedly.

The shop assistant was shocked by this shout and thought that Xing Su was angry from embarrassment. She quickly explained, “Miss, if you really like the egg yolk pastry, you can come back tomorrow. I can save it for you in advance.”

Xing Su pursed her lips as tears welled up in her eyes.

The shop assistant was shocked. Wasn’t it just a few egg yolk pastries? Why was she crying? However, Xing Su was too beautiful. Tears welled up in her eyes and looked like they were about to fall. Her heart almost melted when she saw her.

“Thank you.” After Xing Su thanked the shop assistant in a choked voice, she wiped the tears in her eyes and staggered out of the dessert shop.

At this moment, it started to drizzle outside. When Xing Su came out of the dessert shop, the burning in her stomach became even stronger. The rain hit her face and it was cold. As Xing Su walked, she suddenly squatted down and could not walk anymore. There was the sound of speeding traffic in her ears, covering her suppressed cries. She did not want to cry. She was just a little sad.

…

Jiang Wenrui had a social engagement party tonight. He had drank a little so he did not drive. Instead, he asked his assistant, Yuan Kai, to send him back. When Yuan Ye drove to Zhenxing Road, it was drizzling outside. Accompanied by the soft sound of the windshield wiper, Yuan Kai told Jiang Wenrui about the latest project progress.

Jiang Wenrui, who was sitting in the back, had his eyes closed. He was wearing a pure black handmade suit that did not have any wrinkles from work. The suit was just like him-always calm. He listened to Yuan Kai’s report quietly without opening his eyes, as if everything was going according to his plan.

Halfway through his sentence, Yuan Kai suddenly thought of something and changed the topic with a smile. “By the way, CEO Jiang, CEO Qian mentioned to me at the dining table that there’s someone he knows in Zhongsheng Entertainment who wants us to help take care of her.”

“That little celebrity with the surname Yu?” Jiang Wenrui opened his eyes.

Yuan Kai: “Yes, she’s also the one who took the initiative to add you on WeChat at the charity gala.”

Jiang Wenrui’s eyes were unreadable and he did not respond. Yuan Kai continued, “I think President Qian’s meaning is very obvious. It’s fake that he wants you to help take care of Miss Yu. He wants to send Miss Yu to your bed.”

Yuan Kai thought that his joke was funny, but when he met Jiang Wenrui’s murderous eyes in the rearview mirror, he instantly fell silent.

After a while, Jiang Wenrui said, “Find an excuse to send her back and teach President Qian a lesson.”

Yuan Kai shook his head. “I’m afraid it won’t be easy. President Qian is stubborn. If you return her, he will definitely think that such a small celebrity isn’t your type. I wonder what kind of gift he will give next time.”

Jiang Wenrui hated dealing with people like President Qian, who was not smart but difficult to confront openly. If word got out, it wouldn’t look good on both sides. In the end, Jiang Wenrui didn’t say anything else about this topic. However, he began to think about what Yuan Kai had said. He didn’t like Miss Yu’s type, so what type did he like?

Jiang Wenrui had never thought of this problem. The problems left behind by J Corporation over the years were enough for him to be busy and not have the time to care about anything else. In the blink of an eye, he was already 28 years old this year, but he had never thought about personal problems, even if his parents were already so anxious that they wanted to matchmake him and force him to marry and have children.

Jiang Wenrui kept thinking about all kinds of women he had come into contact with at work. There were subordinates, clients, celebrities, and supermodels, but none of them aroused his interest and desire until he turned his head and inadvertently glanced out of the window. In the dark night, a figure flashed by the roadside. It was so fast that he couldn’t recognize who it was. However, the image of such a figure squatting on the ground and hugging together under the street lamp suddenly overlapped with a certain image in his memory.

Jiang Wenrui asked Yuan Kai to stop the car in front.

The rain had stopped at some point in time. Xing Su raised her head slightly and realized that there was no more rain above her head, but why was there still rainwater splashing around? She looked up again in a daze. Sure enough… there was a dark umbrella above her head, and she knew the person holding the umbrella. It was “Xiao Rui” who had helped her out at the 4S shop today.
