Chapter 1095 Shengnan 27
“Jiangjiang, you’re right. I understand the concept of sunk costs, but I’m just not willing to give up. I’ve known him for eight years, and this relationship has lasted for five. You want me to give up? I’m not willing. I’m really not willing at all.”

Jiang Shengnan cracked her knuckles: "But he's getting married, Sara. Do you want to be seen as the third party in the eyes of the world? Even if you came first, as long as you have that certificate, you'll naturally be the one in the wrong."

Stimulated by the word "third party," Sara's eyelashes trembled: "You're right, I can't let my life fall into such a ridiculous situation. I have to break up with him completely, I can't continue like this, it's an unfathomable hell."

Jiang Shengnan embraced Sara: "It's good that you understand. Sara, you need to love yourself first. Really, no one in this world is worth our sadness."

Sara's tears soaked her clothes: "But I'm so sad. I thought that with time, our relationship would change..."

Jiang Shengnan paused, stroking her long hair. "Silly girl, have you ever thought that perhaps it's because you signed the agreement with him that he's completely relegated to the position of his mistress? And there won't be any other changes?"

Sara was stunned: "So... I was completely wrong from beginning to end?"

“Yes,” Jiang Shengnan patted her shoulder, “You should have slapped that agreement in his face and yelled at him to get out. He’s really awful. I wanted to gouge his eyes out tonight.”

The thought of Yan Yu extending an invitation to her again tonight made Jiang Shengnan's fists harden.

She clenched her fist: "Wasn't he having a get-together with his friends here today? How about I put a sack over his head and beat him up to help you get revenge? No way, this is a society governed by law..."

"Well, I'm pretty good with computers. I can cause him a little trouble and make him lose a hundred or two billion. That shouldn't be too difficult."

Sara couldn't help but laugh: "Am I that valuable?"

“Of course,” Jiang Shengnan said, cupping Sara’s face in his hands as Sara finally smiled. “In my eyes, you are the most precious. I didn’t know Yan Yu treated you this way before. If I had known earlier, I would have intervened long ago. Why would I have made you sad for so long?”

Sara rubbed her cheek against Jiang Shengnan's palm: "Okay, I'll listen to you. I'll resign from the company tomorrow and break up with him completely."

“That’s right,” Jiang Shengnan said, gently touching her cheek. “By letting go of the wrong person, our lives will be smoother from now on. Sara, I hope you’re doing well.”

“If one day someone causes you to hurt yourself due to internal conflict,” she rubbed the scars on Sara’s wrist, “then we should leave him without hesitation, no matter how painful it is, and never look back.”

"Don't be sad or upset for him; he doesn't deserve your feelings."

Sara tried to smile, but tears welled up in her eyes as soon as she blinked: "I know, this scar was left four years ago. He took care of me tirelessly in the hospital for a week, and I thought our relationship could take a step further."

"But I didn't expect that I would take one step forward and two steps back."

"Nannan, I'm so tired."

Jiang Shengnan moved her arm: "Why are you calling me Nannan? You used to call me Xiao Jiang, and only occasionally Jiang Jiang."

“I just don’t want to be like everyone else, Nan Nan. Promise me, in our 17th floor, you’ll be my best friend, okay?” Sara hugged her arm. “I’m all alone. I have no family, no lover, and you’re my only friend.” Jiang Shengnan sighed helplessly, “Okay, you can call me whatever you want.”

She paused, her mood suddenly dropping: "Sara, I'm actually very lonely too. You've seen my family. They're practically nonexistent. I don't have a lover either. My only true confidant is you."

“I used to go on blind dates like crazy, hoping to find someone who could help me escape the quagmire of my family. But later I realized it was useless. Only I can save myself; no one else can save me from this predicament.”

"But now, when I look back, I realize that my life no longer needs a white knight. I can please myself and save myself."

Sara hugged Jiang Shengnan for the first time and said, "So we'll keep each other company. When I quit my job, I'll work at your coffee shop."

“Okay,” Jiang Shengnan tapped Sara’s forehead with his own. “I couldn’t be happier. I’m especially afraid of being alone. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have bought a house but still have to live in a shared apartment on the 17th floor.”

"Only when I'm with you all do I feel like I'm not alone. Even if everyone has their little flaws, so what? I get the warmth I need from you all, and that's enough."

As Sara listened to Jiang Shengnan's confession, she gradually stopped crying. She scratched Jiang Shengnan's chin with her finger: "I used to think you were so strong that you were invincible, but now I realize that you are like this. This makes me feel more real about you."

Jiang Shengnan's heart skipped a beat, but she forced a smile and said, "So you're sure you don't want me to cause trouble for Yan Yu? I'm telling you, I'll do it without anyone noticing."

Sara thought for a moment: "Can you really do that?"

She hesitated for a moment: "Although I really want to, isn't this crossing the line? Don't get yourself into trouble because of me."

Jiang Shengnan was a smart woman. She laughed and said, "I was just saying it. How could I possibly do it? I'm a law-abiding citizen."

Anyway, she could tell from the teacher's expression that the teacher was about to take action, so what did it have to do with her what the teacher did?
Sara was relieved: "That's good. Actually, aside from relationships between men and women, Yan Yu is usually a really good person."

Jiang Shengnan patted her head: "Can we not mention such filthy things again? Although he is indeed good-looking, I feel disgusted just thinking about his lifestyle."

Sara: "But a man who has grown up to this point will always have had his share of experiences."

“I understand,” Jiang Shengnan said softly. “It’s not that I can’t accept that the other person has had a romantic history, it’s that I can’t accept this lifestyle. Maybe this is how rich people live? I’m still not rich enough.”

Sara finally laughed: "You're so rich, and you're telling me you're not rich enough? Nan Nan, you're too ordinary. If Yan Yu had known you were so good at managing money, maybe he wouldn't have hired me at such a high salary."

Jiang Shengnan flatly refused: "Don't mention him to me, it's disgusting to hear. Sara, I know a doctor, the really amazing kind, she can make medicine that can make someone unable to do *that* anymore, do you want her?"

Upon hearing this, Sara couldn't help but be tempted: "Will it really work? Forget it, I'm already thinking of cutting all ties with him. What he does in the future has nothing to do with me. Let him do whatever he wants."

Thank you everyone for your recommendation votes and monthly tickets! From this time onwards, the story focuses on the original owner's efforts to overcome the shadows of their dysfunctional family. The main character has less screen time, so those who aren't interested can skip this time. The next time I'll write about intermediate-level missions. I'm currently working hard on the concept, so I'll update once a day and try to build up a backlog of chapters.
