During the meal, Duan Linbai was scared out of his wits. Song Fengwan kept chatting with Tang Jingci, and he couldn’t get involved with the topics of women, so he could only chat with Qiao Xiyan.
‘The atmosphere was awkward.
After dinner, Duan Linbai sent the two of them to the hotel.
“Young Master Duan, please book a room for me. Thank you so much.” Tang Jingci’s impression of Duan Linbai was too good, especially after the line about Alzheimer’s!
How satisfying!
Moreover, after interacting with him, she knew that he did things readily and wasn’t just someone who looked good but was useless. He had specially investigated this industry and wasn’t a businessman on a whim.
Coupled with Song Fengwan praising Duan Linbai, Tang Jingci was even more certain that she wanted to cooperate with him.
“It’s what I should do. If there’s anything you’re dissatisfied with, you can look for me anytime.” Duan Linbai took out his phone. “I only added your phone number before. Let’s add each other on WeChat now. It’ll be easier to contact each other.”
“Okay,” Tang Jingci agreed readily. “I’ll have to trouble you to take care of me in the capital in the future.”
‘When Tang Jingci saw this WeChat name, she was stunned for a long time. He’s a famous person in the capital. Why did he choose such a funny WeChat name?
“What are you saying? We’re all friends.” Duan Linbai knew very well that this business was most likely successful, so he naturally smiled brightly.
Standing at the side, Qiao Xiyan really didn’t understand why the two of them were so close.
He and Tang Jingci stayed in different rooms. After taking the room cards, they went to their own rooms.
Qiao Xiyan recalled Duan Linbai’s words. His hands were very itchy. In the middle of the night, he sat in front of the table lamp and carved stones for a while. Meanwhile, Tang Jingci was jet-lagged and had a good night’s sleep.

Duan Linbai felt aggrieved. On the way to the school, he specially asked, “Little Sister-in-Law, does your cousin have something against me?”
“How is that possible? He’s not familiar with you.” Song Fengwan didn’t facilitate this business because she had a good relationship with Duan Linbai. Duan Linbai’s connections were indeed top-notch in the Beijing circle. His promotion and publicity ability were better than any other company’s.
“I think so too. I’m not familiar with him. Why would he target me?”
“When did Cousin target you?” Song Fengwan had been chatting with Tang Jingci and really didn’t notice the other two people.
“That gaze of his…”
Duan Linbai relied entirely on his intuition. After all, he had lived in the confrontations and shadow plays of a few great gods since he was young. He knew how to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages.
“I don’t think he’s targeting you. He’s born like this and treats everyone the same.”
“Born like this…” Duan Linbai was speechless.
Is he born to narrow his eyes to scare people? Or is he born to use a knife to scare people?
This person is a pervert!

Over the next few days, if Song Fengwan didn’t have any classes, she would always accompany Tang Jingci to tour various scenic places.
It was the beginning of spring, and the magnolias in the Beijing Museum were blooming. Tang Jingci had even specially rushed to the venue early in the morning to photograph pictures. Song Fengwan wasn’t free, so Duan Linbai was naturally accompanying her.
‘The benefits her father could bring Duan Linbai were not just the money from the design exhibition but the subsequent sponsorship and investments. He had just released the news, and there were already several large corporations that wanted to sponsor them. There were endless business opportunities.
He naturally flattered this god of fortune.
‘Tang Jingci’s photography skills were excellent. Be it the angle of the shot or the adjustment of the focus, the final photos were all comparable to artistic photos.
Duan Linbai specially stole two photos and posted them on his Moments.
Naturally, many people liked and commented on them.
Fu Chen: [You took them?]
Duan Linbai replied: [Of course not. Miss Tang took them. Aren’t they super amazing?)
[You two are together early in the morning?] It was past nine in the morning.
Duan Linbai was probably busy and didn’t reply.
On WeChat Moments, only mutual friends could see the comments and likes. Qiao Xiyan naturally saw their WeChat messages.
Last night, Tang Jingci had sent him a message saying that she had something to do today. Their friendship had not reached the point of getting to the bottom of it yet, so he naturally didn’t ask why.
So, she went out with Duan Linbai.
They weren’t discussing business but going out to play.
Qiao Xiyan had just returned from exercising and taken a shower. He raised his hand and pulled the towel around his neck aside. When did the two of them become so close?
He wasn’t familiar with Duan Linbai. He only knew that he had a good relationship with Fu Chen and was quite close to him. He looked very unreliable, so his impression of him was naturally average. After all
Birds of a feather flock together.
To be friends with someone who dug holes for others everywhere and had a stomach full of evil tricks, he was most likely not a good person..
