s expression tinged with melancholy. Could it be that only by directly confessing his feelings to her would she believe his love for her"Ethan, I love you."A single sentence made the woman in front of...Shen Juan raised his eyes: "She rejected me because she looked down on me back then, when I was so bad. Don't you think that I was as excellent as I am now from the beginning"

Ling Chen laughed, "That person is truly unfortunate. If they knew you were like this now, they would surely regret it to their very core."

Shenjue shook her head. "No, there's not just one reason why I wouldn't. She has someone else who is willing to be with her, that's also a reason." Shenjue paused for a moment. "Lingchen, what do you think For a woman, is it better to marry someone she loves or someone excellent"

"You shouldn't ask me this question..." Lingchen said, "You know I wouldn't say the right answer."

Shen Jue snorted disdainfully: "That's right, we are all people who love but cannot have..."

For a moment, there was silence between the two.

“I saw her again.”

"Speaking of which, the first time I met her was more dramatic than a movie..." Shenjue fell into his own memories again. Lingchen next to him didn't have much patience to listen, and he interrupted bluntly: "Who is she"

Shen Jue coughed lightly and did not answer directly. Ling Chen saw that he was not answering his question directly, so he pressed further, "Related to your plan"

"As for my plans, this was purely an accident." Shenjue said, laughing to herself: "She appeared and let me truly get to know her. I'm even wondering if I should continue with this plan."

“This person is truly extraordinary… I thought I understood the purpose of your plan, but now, I seem to have no idea.” Ling Chen was puzzled. If Shen Jian’s goal was as he initially thought, then now, as his closest confidant, he felt like he truly didn't know him anymore.

Shen Jue retracted the smile from his face. He had always been someone who liked to show a playful and smiling demeanor, rarely showing such seriousness as he did now: "When she appeared, I wasn't sure anymore, I wasn't even certain of my original intentions."

"We're good friends, so I have to tell you something first. No matter how you feel about her, you need to know that she is already married, she belongs to someone else." Ling Chen said: "I never thought that you would become like me..."

As if he had been told his secret, Shen Jue's eyes darkened and he walked straight out the door. Ling Chen added from behind, "Remember what I said."

Shana Shangguan sent a short message to Shen Jue. She pushed open the bronze-inlaid door, and Shangguan Xiong was tapping away on his computer. Shana walked in, closed the door behind her, and sat across from Shangguan Xiong, calmly opening with: "Father."

"You happened to be here. I was going to look for you anyway. From now on, don't have anything to do with Shen Jue. He's someone we Shangguan family cannot be associated with in any way. Also, it's not suitable for you to visit him often."

Shangguan Nana looked puzzled, her hands gripping the armrest tightly: "What do you mean Frequent comings and goings, could someone be deliberately following me"

"... I'm doing this for your safety, Nana. You understand, right Dad" Shangguan Xiong used a declarative sentence, but his tone was still very affirmative.

Shangguan Nana tried hard to conceal the disdain in her eyes: "Why draw a line with him Even if there was once an engagement and cooperation, it's not necessary to cut off all ties with them. The economic interests of your previous generation, why should our generation bear the burden"

Shangguan Xiong laughed a few times: "Nana, what you said will make Dad think that you truly like Shen Jian, and it will also make me forget that the Mountain Cat is your husband."

"You're changing the subject. Even if we were married, what law prevents married people from socializing with the opposite sex" Shangguan Nana retorted vehemently.Yinan's side and hugged her tightly. His uneasiness grew stronger, feeling that Zhao Yinan was like sand held in his palm—the tighter he clenched it, the faster it slipped away."What's wrong Are you f...
