Since Pierce refused to leave, Jing Liuyue angrily raised his hand to slap the woman.With a swift reaction, Pierce quickly stopped him and scolded, “It’s ungentlemanly to hit a woman!”Jing Liuyue glared at the woman that hid behind Pierce and shouted sternly, “Come here.”The woman bit her lips and kept shaking her head with teary eyes.An affectionate desire to protect the woman grew in Pierce when he saw her face.“She won’t go back with you. Stop bothering her,” Pierce told Jing Liuyue.Jing Liuyue never said a word. He gave a long fierce glare at the woman. Without a choice, he left with anger.No one noticed a subtle mischievous smile appeared on his face the moment he turned away.After Jing Liuyue left in his car, Pierce turned his attention to the pitiful woman. He told her, “He’s gone. Go home now.”“I don’t have a home,” the woman said, crying.Pierce and Shangguan Qian glanced at each other. In the end, Pierce brought the woman back to the hotel.Jing Liuyue cal
The criminal evaded his gaze. He still gave no response.No matter what Fang Yuchen asked, he pretended to hear nothing.Without a choice, Fang Yuchen had to leave him alone. He chatted with Sir Chen shortly, then left the police station.On their way back, Fang Yuchen sat behind. He frowned as he stared at the view outside the window. He thoughtfully said, “It looks like that kid won’t simply confess his crimes. Fang Yiming must have given him instructions.”Song Yao also frowned. “Then what should we do?” he asked.The most urgent matter then was to make the kid admit his ties to Fang Yiming.If the kid persistently denied it, then it would become a headache.Fang Yuchen considered carefully, then instructed, “Go investigate the kid’s family background.”Song Yao nodded. “Alright. After I send you back to the company, I will look into it.”Fang Yuchen nodded and did not say anything else.At Fang Group… Fang Yiming had gotten the news that his man had been caught. He fu
“Sese, are you free tomorrow? I want to invite you to a meal.”When Jiang Sese got the phone call from Shangguan Yuan, she was slightly surprised.She thought Shangguan Yuan would not ask her out again since the last incident.She never thought…She was subconsciously unwilling to meet Shangguan Yuan. After a short hesitation, she declined. “Tomorrow? I might not be free.”Even so, Shangguan Yuan never gave up. She said straightforwardly, “Sese, do you hate me?”“No,” Jiang Sese replied.“Then why are you rejecting me? I just want to have a meal with you.”Even though they talked through the phone, Jiang Sese could hear the pleading tone in Shangguan Yuan’s voice. Jiang Sese could not help but soften. She gave in at last. “Alright. Then I’ll see you tomorrow.”It should be fine. It was just a meal.“Thanks, Sese,” Shangguan Yuan replied excitedly. “I’ll send you the restaurant’s location later.”“Alright,” Jiang Sese said, then ended the call.She stared at the darkened scr
‘Yuanyuan and I plan to go shopping after our meal. I’ll call you when we’re done.’Jin Fengchen frowned when he received Sese’s message and tossed his phone aside.He did not like Sese hanging out with Shangguan Yuan.Fang Yuchen, who was seated across from him, thought for a moment then asked, “Fengchen, what do you think of Shangguan Yuan?”“What about her?” Jin Fengchen did not answer the question.“Nothing, I just want to know. You know I like her, so I just wanted to ask your opinion.”“Nothing outstanding.”An unsurprising answer. Fang Yuchen smiled and teased, “Apart from Sese, every other woman is not outstanding.”Jin Fengchen did not commit to an answer.“However, in my eyes, she is the best,” said Fang Yuchen.“She’s not suitable for you.”Fang Yuchen did not expect that Jin Fengchen would say that and asked in surprise, “Why not?”“She has a more intricate mind than yours, and she as she seems on the surface.”“So, this is what you meant.” Fang Yuchen smiled a
Fang Yuchen sped home, his heartbeat pounding up along the way. He only calmed down until he arrived home and saw Shangguan Yuan.He looked and smiled gently at Shangguan Yuan. “Yuanyuan.”Shangguan Yuan looked surprised. It was obvious that she did not expect him to be back.“Yuchen, why are you back?” asked Jiang Sese, pretending to be surprised.Fang Yuchen looked at her and saw her wink. He understood and replied with a smile, “I left a document at home, so I came back to get it.”“What a coincidence! Yuanyuan is here too.”Jiang Sese stood up and dragged Fang Yuchen over to sit beside Shangguan Yuan. “You two have a chat. I’ll go help out in the kitchen.”She then quickly turned and headed to the kitchen, leaving the two of them behind.Fang Yuchen stole a glance at the woman beside him. He awkwardly did not know where to place his hands and did not know what to say.Shangguan Yuan took the initiative and spoke, “I sent Sese back and thought I’d come and say hello to
Jin Fengchen returned to the Fang house but did not see Shangguan Yuan.As he entered the room, he looked at Jiang Sese and asked, “Didn't you say…”Jiang Sese narrowed her eyes, stared at him, and pretended to be annoyed. “Are you disappointed?”“No.”“Really?” Jiang Sese did not really believe it.Jin Fengchen could not help but laugh. “Why should I be disappointed?”“Why?” Jiang Sese thought about it seriously. “She’s very beautiful and outstanding. She is the type you men like.”Jin Fengchen raised his eyebrows. “So?”“So…” Jiang Sese was dumbfounded by this question.“Are you jealous?” Jin Fengchen smiled.“No!” Jiang Sese turned to the side and stuck out her chin proudly.Jin Fengchen laughed. He walked over and took her into his arms. He then spoke gently into her ear, “No matter how beautiful or outstanding others may be, it doesn't matter to me. I will always only have eyes for you.”“Really?” Jiang Sese felt extremely happy, and the corners of her mouth could not
Jin Fengchen looked at Fang Yuchen’s confidence-filled expression. He was silent for a while before slowly saying, “If you are confident, proceed.”“Great.”With his support, Fang Yuchen was even more confident.Early the next morning, he went to the office and went directly into Fang Yiming's office.As always, Fang Yiming came to work very early. When he entered his office, he was taken aback when he saw Fang Yuchen.“Good morning, Eldest Cousin,” greeted Fang Yuchen with a smile.Fang Yiming frowned, and his tone was a little annoyed. “What are you doing here?”“There is something that I cannot figure out, so I came over to ask for your advice.”He sounded humble and respectful, but one could still hear the sarcasm if one listened carefully.Fang Yiming scowled and smiled coldly, “I am unworthy. It’s best that you seek advice from someone else.”He walked past Fang Yuchen with a cold expression and dropped his briefcase heavily on the desk.Fang Yuchen turned around and s
Fang Yiming glanced at Yang Zichen, but Yang Zichen just lowered his head.He took a deep breath, then said calmly, “It could be someone with the same name.”Fang Yuchen had long anticipated that he would say this and smiled. “I wished that was true, but unfortunately it's not. Eldest Uncle personally sent this.”“I don’t know anything about this.”Because he could not explain it, was he pretending to be ignorant?Fang Yuchen raised his eyebrows. “Okay, since you don't know, I will have Eldest Uncle come in. He should know.”“Fang Yuchen, don’t overreach!” Fang Yiming panicked and pointed to Yang Zichen, “His grandmother had no money for medical treatment and my father helped him out. Is that wrong? Why do you think the worst of people?”“I didn’t say that it was wrong, but I have the right to know the truth.”He then took out his cell phone and was about to dial Fang Cheng’s number.At this moment, Yang Zichen, who had been silent all the while, spoke, “This has nothing to do
