Jiang Sese picked it up. "Hello, Senior Lu.""Sese, where are you now? I know this great restaurant. Are you free tonight? Come have dinner with me."Lu Zheng had his own plan. After all, Jin Fengchen was staying in the same hotel as Jiang Sese, and he suspected that Jin Fengchen was in love with Jiang Sese as well, which made the two of them competitors. Lu Zheng wanted to ask Jiang Sese out when he still had the chance."I'm sorry, Senior Lu, but I'm on my way to meet a client with Xu Na.""Really? So, the SR Group has agreed to meet you?""Yes."Xu Zheng smiled. "I knew you could do it. I won't keep you, then. The dinner can wait until next time.""Sure, Senior Lu."After the call ended, Xu Na gave Jiang Sese an envious and teasing look."Sister Sese, I told you so. Mr. Lu is in love with you. You have to trust me in this. See? He only saw you the day before yesterday and he's asking you out again.""Yeah, yeah. Enough with the gossip already."Jiang Sese smiled in resign
Now that the project had gone through, Jiang Sese was finally free of anxiety. She was now eager to leave. However, she was only able to take two steps before she lost her balance. She felt disoriented, and then passed out..."Sister Sese."Xu Na's pupils contracted and she panicked. Jin Fengchen reacted quickly and caught Jiang Sese in time.Jiang Sese was ghastly pale. One could tell how bloodless her lips were even with her lipstick on. Jin Fengchen felt how hot she was through her dress and realized that she was trembling.Jin Fengchen's face darkened and he asked Xu Na angrily, "What happened?"Baffled by Jin Fengchen's anger, Xu Na stammered, "Sister Sese has been having a fever all day and I tried to persuade her to not come, but she wouldn't listen."Xu Na then looked at Jiang Sese anxiously.Hearing this, President Yu was even more impressed by how committed Jiang Sese was.Jin Fengchen felt Jiang Sese's forehead and was surprised by how hot it was.Su Qingyin's face
Jiang Sese's fever broke the next day. Relieved, Jin Fengchen checked her out of the hospital and took her back to the hotel.Jiang Sese couldn't help feeling guilty when she recalled that Jin Fengchen had to sleep on the hospital sofa the previous night. The sudden illness completely baffled her.As soon as they got out of the hotel elevator, Su Qingyin came out of her room at the sound. She hardly had any sleep the night before, but looked as elegant and graceful as ever. She greeted them with a smile. "Miss Jiang, how are you feeling now? We were so scared when you fainted during the banquet last night.""I'm much better now. Thank you for your concern, Miss Su," replied Jiang Sese."Glad to hear that."Su Qingyin nodded, and then turned to Jin Fengchen and brought up their official business."By the way, Fengchen, the project that Mr. Li mentioned yesterday needs your opinion." After that, Su Qingyin studied Jin Fengchen's face and said involuntarily, "Did you not sleep well
Han Jing walked out of Su Shan's office to find a few colleagues discussing quietly among themselves."Have you heard? Sese nailed that American project!""Really? Han Jing worked on it for a month and she didn't get anywhere with it. But Sese took it just like that. She's amazing!""That Han Jing is so lousy. I heard she was transferred here from the HQ! Tsk, tsk."...Han Jing's face turned livid as she stood there.Clenching her fists, she wouldn't accept defeat. Since she had been transferred from headquarters with Su Shan, she believed that she was a more prominent figure than the rest of the staff. But now... Jiang Sese had succeeded in several projects in a row. Han Jing was convinced that no one would respect her anymore if things went on like this."No, I can't let Jiang Sese steal all the merits," thought Han Jing....Xu Na and Jiang Sese rested in their hotel room until that afternoon. Seeing that Jiang Sese was in good condition, Xu Na took her out on a shopping t
After Jiang Sese fled the scene, Lu Zheng rose to his feet as well. He picked up Jiang Sese's handbag and cell phone. "Sorry, but Sese and I need to be somewhere."After what had happened, they could no longer eat like normal.Su Qingyin nodded with a smile. "Mr. Lu, I think you should go to Miss Jiang now."After telling Xu Na that he would have someone take her back to the hotel, Lu Zheng turned to leave."Thank you, Mr. Lu."Sitting on her seat, Xu Na nodded, looking dumbfounded.After the others left, Jin Fengchen rose to his feet as well. The look on his face was rather grim."Fengchen, where are you going?" Su Qingyin asked. She worried that Jin Fengchen would go after Lu Zheng to stop him from going to Jiang Sese."My hotel room. I need some rest."Jin Fengchen answered her coldly before marching out of the restaurant."What about dinner?" Su Qingyin asked as she followed him out.She could tell that Jin Fengchen was angry. More precisely, he was jealous."Jiang Sese
Jiang Sese meant what she said. She had always considered Lu Zheng to be an exceptional man and believed that a young entrepreneur as gentle and handsome as him deserved someone better.Lu Zheng rubbed her head, and then smiled. "Silly girl, you're not making any sense. I'm sure you're exhausted. Now, go get some rest!"Of course, Lu Zheng knew what Jiang Sese meant, but he didn't want to give up, no matter how slim a chance he had."All right. Senior Lu, you should get some rest, too."Lu Zheng nodded. Jiang Sese left after that, heading back to her hotel.Watching her from behind, Lu Zheng had an indescribable look on his face. It had been a while since their reunion, and he had heard about the thing that Jiang Sese had gone through.She had been kicked out of the Jiang Family after breaking up with Lan Sichen, as well as having to look after her sick mother all by herself... As it turned out, Jiang Sese hadn't been living a happy life as Lu Zheng had imagined, but had fallen o
Jin Fengchen headed straight for the airport after leaving the hotel with Jiang Sese.Jiang Sese remained perplexed the entire time. She had thought that Jin Fengchen was going to show her around New York or take her shopping. The airport was the last place she expected to go."Where are we going?" Jiang Sese asked in bewilderment."Are we going back home now? It can't be!"Jin Fengchen smiled when he saw the bewildered look on Jiang Sese's face."What? Are you afraid that I'm going to sell you?""Of course not." Jiang Sese shook her head with a smile. She then boarded the plane with Jin Fengchen.It was his personal jet, and apart from the cabin crew, the two of them were the only people aboard.Jin Fengchen then had the crew prepare some food. Because of Lu Zheng's sudden confession of love during dinner, Jiang Sese had hardly eaten anything. She was indeed hungry now.Jiang Sese asked as she ate, "Where on earth are we going?""It's a secret," said Jin Fengchen.Seeing th
Lowering herself into the bathtub, Jiang Sese let herself be submerged in the water. She was a little angry with herself. "How am I ever going to forget Jin Fengchen if things go on like this?"That man was like a drug and she was addicted. Jiang Sese was lost in various conjectures. The idea of being separated from him one day and that he might marry another woman gnawed at her. It was as if 10,000 ants were eating away at her.She took her time to take that bath. After she left the bathroom, she saw that Jin Fengchen had taken a shower as well. He told Jiang Sese to have some ginger water to expel the cold as soon as he saw her. And a doctor had even arrived to take Jiang Sese's temperature to see if there was anything wrong with her.Jiang Sese thought that Jin Fengchen was overreacting. She couldn't help chuckling."I've hardly ever seen you this nervous."Jin Fengchen studied Jiang Sese's face. Of course he was nervous. Her health was concerned!He never wanted to see her in
