Ning Chen glanced at Jason with an indifferent gaze. “If you want these women, I can give them to you.”
“No, no, no, forget it.” Jason hurriedly waved his hand, “But I don’t understand. Why would you rather choose that woman called Tang Rou than to be with Linda? You and Linda have known each other since you were young. She went abroad with you when you went to receive treatment. You wanted to return to the country to inherit the family business. At that time, she said she’d return after completing her PhD studies. Why didn’t you wait for her?”
Ning Chen helplessly shook his head: “I just treat Linda as my little sister. If I had never met Qin Yu, I might have felt that Linda was a suitable marriage partner. But now that I’ve found someone I want to spend the rest of my life with, I don’t want to waste Linda’s time. I know that she hasn’t given up on me. If she doesn’t come back and pester Me, she won’t give up, so…”
“I understand. So you wanted Tang Rou and Linda to go against each other, so that Linda would admit defeat?” Jason understood.
“Tang Rou’s appearance was unexpected. She’s a little unique and we kept her around to find out the mastermind behind. Yes, this is not what I wanted but there’s nothing much I could do.”
Jason sighed, “I pity Linda. She is completely infatuated with you.”
“She will find true love, one who is completely devoted to her.” Ning Chen sighed and felt a little helpless.

“How is it going?”
In the darkness of the video call, a low voice rang.
“Hmph, I’ve already made Ning Chen fall in love with me. But now, a woman suddenly appeared. She and Ning Chen have known each other for a long time. It seems like she also has feelings for Ning Chen.”
As soon as Tang Rou mentioned Linda, she couldn’t help but clench her fists in hatred.
The other side was silent for two minutes. The man seemed to be looking for information, and then the voice continued: “That woman’s name is Chen Lin?”
Tang Rou nodded, “If she was just a nobody, then forget it. But that woman is from one of the four big families. I can’t do anything to her. How annoying!”
The man understood, “She won’t interfere with the overall situation. Don’t forget the mission.”
“I know. One is Qin Yu, and the other is that person. But now Qin Yu is missing. As for that person, there are hundreds of people in the Ning family. How would I know who that person is?” Tang Rou’s tone was somewhat impatient.
“You have to find him and get rid of him. Otherwise, if Ning Chen finds out, it will be troublesome.” The man’s tone was unquestionable.
Tang Rou frowned and rolled her eyes. She reluctantly said, “I know, I know.”
After hanging up, the man who spoke turned to look at the person sitting on the chair. “Everything is going well with Miss.”
The person sitting in the chair raised his head slightly. His somewhat weathered face nodded. “Okay.”
“After this matter is over… Should we ask Miss to come back?” the man carefully asked.
“We’ll see.” The cold voice seemed emotionless.
“Right, Shi Xiao has been contacting us recently, saying that she wants to cooperate with us.” The man didn’t continue talking about Tang Rou, but changed the topic.
“Cooperate? What can she do?” The man on the chair laughed mockingly. After a pause, he asked, “What about Shi Yong? He still won’t tell us?”
“Yeah, he said that he doesn’t have what we want, and he doesn’t have anything to hide from us.”
“Oh… he still won’t tell us. He’s really stubborn.”
“Shi Yong is indeed stupid, but he should know that if he tells us, we definitely won’t let him off.”
“Then… bring her over. I wonder if he will loosen his grip for his daughter.” The man in the wheelchair smiled, although his expression remained just as dark.
“Okay, shall I have Anemone take her under his wing?”
“Yes.”

“Xiaoxiao, where are you going?” He Bei came home from work that night and saw Shi Xiao packing things into her suitcase.
“I’m… going on a trip,” Shi Xiao said with an unnatural tone.
“A trip? Where are you going? You’re a girl. I’m worried about you going out alone.” He Bei went forward and grabbed Shi Xiao’s hand. “I’ll have my break soon, then we can travel together.”
Shi Xiao quietly shook her hand away from He Bei’s.
During her few-month stay at He Bei’s, they’d share plenty of intimate moments. After all, they were still young and passions ran high.
Shi Xiao was originally taking advantage of He Bei, but he treated her extremely well. Not only did he give all the money he earned to Shi Xiao, whenever she wasn’t feeling well, he wouldn’t sleep but instead stayed up.
Shi Xiao almost drowned in He Bei’s gentleness.
However, when she thought of Qin Yu, the hatred in her heart was still surging.. When she thought of how that woman was still living a good life as a rich lady, she was so jealous that she went crazy.
