When the female supporting role has a beauty system
Chapter 1101 Shengnan 33
Chapter 1101 Shengnan 33
"The sky outside may be vast, but your good friends will always be here waiting for you." Jiang Shengnan nudged her with his elbow: "Let's go, to celebrate your departure today, I specially booked a restaurant."
Sara's sadness vanished: "Okay, thank you, Nan Nan."
Since resigning, Sara has found life to be incredibly pleasant. There's no high-intensity work, no endless meetings, no countless reports and plans to review, and no need to face people she doesn't want to see.
She spent almost every day with Jiang Shengnan, the two of them holed up on the 20th floor, researching various cuisines together. Or they would go to a coffee shop, one of them studying stock market trends on their computer, while the other was engrossed in online courses.
That afternoon, Jiang Shengnan was in a rare good mood, working with the kitchen staff to develop new flavors of pastries. Sara took a bite of a cherry blossom cookie and said, "I just saw the news and heard that the Yan family's company is facing a major crisis overseas."
Jiang Shengnan paused, thinking to herself, "Is Tan You really that helpful? Sara only left the company less than a week ago, right?"
She smiled and said, "Really? Just normal business competition."
Sara smiled and said, "That's true. The Yan family has developed to the point where it has countless enemies, which is normal."
Jiang Shengnan touched her milk tea cup: "That's right. You've already resigned, why are you still concerned about these things?"
"I'm not paying attention, but since I've always been in this circle, I'm bound to receive news. There are a lot of people watching the Yan family these days."
Jiang Shengnan reluctantly accepted Sara's explanation. She glanced at Sara and said, "You know, we're always running back and forth between home and the shop, it's bound to get a bit boring. How about we go on a trip?"
Sara immediately agreed: "No problem! Nan Nan, where shall we go? Abroad?"
"Well, how about we travel around the country first?" Jiang Shengnan smiled. "I want to go to the desert. After seeing the vastness of the world, I'll be less likely to be bothered by worldly troubles."
Sara didn't object: "Okay, then I'll go with you."
Both of them were spontaneous travelers; they decided on their travel plans in the afternoon and appeared at the train station that evening. Since they weren't in a rush and weren't worried about money, they leisurely headed west.
When the two returned after traveling through most of the country, it was already early summer. The two-month trip seemed to have completely cleansed their souls; Sara had become much more cheerful and outgoing.
Jiang Shengnan, on the other hand, seemed to have remained unchanged, still as radiant and beautiful as ever.
While some are riding high on success, others are in dire straits – that's a perfect example of Yan Yu.
Ever since Sara resigned, he's felt like everything's going wrong. First, he experienced sexual dysfunction, then the company ran into problems. By the time he managed to stabilize the situation after flying overseas, the damage was irreversible.
This recent overseas upheaval alone has ruined his meticulously planned strategy of several years; the losses are so great they could be calculated in small sums. Who on earth is behind this ruthless attack?
After finally settling down overseas, Yan Yu returned to S City only to find that while the company had been saved, his own situation was even worse. Now, he practically drinks coffee and strong tea like water, just to get as little sleep as possible.
He no longer dreams of the pink skull, but his dreams have become even more terrifying. Since he became immune to the pink skull, his dreams have become increasingly bizarre and unpredictable.
Last month, Yan Yu dreamt of all sorts of corpses, all kinds of bizarre ways they died, especially corpses that began to decompose some time after death. Just thinking about the scene of white maggots wriggling out of the seven orifices of the dead made Yan Yu's face turn green.
Ever since he had that dream, he has been unable to eat meat and survives on vegetable leaves every day.
Good heavens, how much longer must he endure this torment? He was terrified that every time he closed his eyes, he would dream of maggots.
The assistant came over to report, "President Jin is here." "Why is he here?" Yan Yu asked in surprise, pinching the bridge of his nose. "Please invite him in."
Jin Jue entered the office and was taken aback when she saw Yan Yu's current state: "How come you've lost so much weight?"
Yan Yu smiled wryly: "Sit down. In less than two months, I lost forty pounds. I couldn't eat or sleep well, so naturally I lost weight rapidly."
Jin Jue couldn't help but think of Jiang Shengnan's words that day. What kind of tactic was this? Now, Yan Yu seemed to be completely drained.
"What's wrong with you these past two months?" Jin Jue asked curiously. Could impotence really have such a big impact on a person? Surely not?
Yan Yu and Jin Jue are old friends, so they can talk about anything. He poured Jin Jue a cup of tea: "I can't really explain it, but recently, for the past two months, I've been having a lot of dreams. Every time I close my eyes, all I see are all sorts of terrifying dreams."
"No matter where I am, as soon as I fall asleep, those nightmares follow me like a shadow."
"Last month I dreamed of pink skeletons. I finally managed to calm my mind and get two good nights' sleep, but then my dreams changed. This past month, every time I close my eyes, all I see are all sorts of bizarre corpses."
He shook his head as he spoke: "Ever since I saw these things, I haven't been able to eat anything."
"Do you think I'm possessed by an evil spirit? But I've already gone to temples and Taoist monasteries to pray, but it didn't work."
Jin Jue looked at Yan Yu, wondering what kind of methods were used to torture Yan Yu like this.
Have you tried hypnosis? Or other sleep aids?
Yan Yu shrugged: "I'm terrified of hearing the word 'sleep' right now. I don't even dare to drive. I have a driver pick me up and drop me off every day. In my current state, how could I dare to drive on the road by myself?"
"This is really weird. Who do you think wants to torture me like this?"
Jin Jue initially thought it was Jiang Shengnan who did it, but after hearing Jin Jue's explanation, he became somewhat doubtful. Could such methods be controlled by human power?
Do you think it's possible that a psychologist intervened in your dreams using external means?
Yan Yu lifted his eyelids slightly: "I've also suspected that, but I've consulted renowned masters both domestically and internationally, and I haven't shown any signs of being hypnotized. It's really strange, why are they targeting me?"
"These past two months have been really unlucky."
Jin Jue's ears twitched: "When did you start having these kinds of dreams?"
Yan Yu replied without hesitation: "On March 6th, Sara told me she was resigning. That night, I started having nightmares about it."
Jin Jue raised an eyebrow slightly. He overheard Jiang Shengnan and Sara's conversation on the night of March 5th. Sara resigned the next day, and Yan Yu started having dreams that very night.
The timing was too coincidental. Jin Jue had no evidence, but what evidence did he need? Suspicion was enough. At this moment, Jin Jue was incredibly curious about Jiang Shengnan; he desperately wanted to know how Jiang Shengnan had managed to do it.
Knowing that Jiang Shengnan's coffee shop was nearby, Jin Jue had no desire to stay with Yan Yu any longer. He patted Yan Yu on the shoulder: "Let me know if you need anything."
