The Rich Man's Life Begins with a Comeback

Chapter 163 "Good Girl" (3k)

Nanlu Guild Hall.

Han Yijia wore an off-shoulder black dress, her beautiful face adorned with exquisite makeup. Her slender arms and delicate legs, exposed to the light, were fair and radiant. Combined with the elegant ambiance of the upscale restaurant, she truly resembled a sophisticated socialite.

At that moment, a man was sitting directly opposite Han Yijia, taking pictures of her with his phone from various angles, looking extremely serious.

"Baby, you look so beautiful from this angle!"

"Baby, you'll definitely like this photo!"

"Baby, your smile is so charming!"

……

From the moment the photo was taken, the man's words of praise never stopped.

"Let me see it~"

Han Yijia changed poses repeatedly, allowing her boyfriend to take many photos of her, before reaching out to take his phone from her.

"Jiajia, before coming to eat today, I did my homework on Xiaohongshu (Little Red Book) and learned about photo composition. Do you think I've improved?"

While showing off to Han Yijia, Zhang Peng casually picked up a fermented shrimp and started peeling it for her.

"not bad."

Han Yijia looked down at the photos, her tone slightly perfunctory.

Miao Yue: 2707
Suddenly, a text message popped up silently on Zhang Peng's phone.

Han Yijia was slightly taken aback. Then, without making a sound, she seemed to still be looking at the photos Zhang Peng had taken for her, but in reality, she clicked on the text message.

The past is completely clean, with no records whatsoever.

Han Yijia then went into Zhang Peng's WeChat. At first, she searched for Miao Yue, but the search showed no results. However, after she entered the letters "my" into the search box, a WeChat friend named Ma Yan appeared before her eyes.

However, this WeChat friend with a male name in the contact list actually has a female account, and her Moments are full of selfies of women.

'Ah……'

'She really isn't a picky eater.'

Although Han Yijia never imagined that her boyfriend, who had always been obedient to her, would cheat on her, she didn't show any emotion at the moment, only letting out a cold laugh in her heart.

In her opinion, this woman named "Ma Yan" but actually "Miao Yue" was far inferior to her in terms of looks, and even her figure was nothing special.

The only advantage...

Perhaps it's because it's a bit provocative?

'But compared to me, they seem to be a bit lacking.'

'It's just that I've never shown my flirtatious side to you.'

As Han Yijia thought this to herself, she slowly and deliberately cleared the search traces from before, then returned to the album page as if none of this had happened.

As a seasoned veteran of the entertainment industry, Han Yijia found Zhang Peng and Miao Yue's little tricks far too childish.

Clearly, the number Miao Yue just sent to Zhang Peng must be a hotel room number.

Han Yijia remained completely unmoved by this.

It was just a mobile ATM; she hadn't really expected anything from the other person.

For Zhang Peng, a captain with an annual salary of one million, this is still barely enough to satisfy her at this stage.

Exposing her would do her no good.

However, it is still necessary to take this opportunity to put some pressure on the other party and give them a warning.

Han Yijia picked up her phone and used the AirDrop function to send the photos from Zhang Peng's phone to her own.

Who is Miao Yue?

Han Yijia didn't even look up, asking the question as if it were casual.

Zhang Peng, who was peeling shrimp for Han Yijia, trembled slightly involuntarily when he heard Han Yijia's sudden question.

"Miao Yue?"

"what happened?"

"She is a staff member of our flight department."

Zhang Peng feigned composure and, on a sudden inspiration, responded to Han Yijia.

"Oh……"

"It's nothing, she just sent you a text message."

Han Yijia spoke without any change in tone, and handed Zhang Peng's phone back to him as if she had no suspicions or awareness whatsoever.

"is it?"

Seeing Han Yijia's attitude, Zhang Peng's anxiety gradually subsided, and he immediately checked his text messages after picking up his phone.

"Baby, I forgot to tell you just now."

"I have to go back to the airline this afternoon; we have a flight training meeting to attend."

"The number that Miao Yue just sent me is the file retrieval code for our airline's internal system. Please don't overthink it."

Zhang Peng frantically tried to cover it up: "She's just a very strange person. She's usually withdrawn and will never say a word more than necessary. I don't usually interact with her, otherwise we wouldn't not even have each other on WeChat."

"what……"

"Are you leaving soon?"

"Today is my birthday!"

"Are you suggesting I live alone?!"

After hearing what Zhang Peng said, Han Yijia immediately showed a hint of disappointment, but inwardly she was sneering.

'Even on my own birthday, I still have to make time to sleep with that vixen?'

'She's really bad at cooking but has a huge addiction!' Seeing Han Yijia's expression, Zhang Peng felt even more guilty.

"Baby!"

"I'll be quick!"

"I'll be back in two hours at most!"

"Go to the IFC mall and browse around on your own for a bit. I'll buy you any clothes or shoes you like later. And haven't you always wanted a Hermes bag?"

I'll buy them all for you tonight!

For Zhang Peng, Miao Yue was just a passing fancy.

In comparison, Han Yijia is still the most important.

Dating a top-tier flight attendant makes you feel incredibly prestigious wherever you go.

The envious looks from passersby and friends gave him a kind of opium-like pleasure that he couldn't resist and was now hard to get rid of.

That's why Zhang Peng was so obedient to Han Yijia.

Unfortunately, while Han Yijia is beautiful and has a great figure, she is somewhat sexually frigid and has virtually no experience. She is far too inexperienced and often resists intimate behavior.

Despite feeling frustrated and resentful about Han Yijia's situation, Zhang Peng was secretly pleased and increasingly felt that Han Yijia was a good girl.

Men are such contradictory creatures. They like experienced women to give them a better experience, but they can't accept that their own woman was already experienced before she even met them.

"Humph……"

"All you ever do is make me buy you clothes, bags, and shoes. Am I with you just for these things?"

Han Yijia turned her head slightly to look out the window, her tone tinged with a hint of resentment: "I just want you to spend more time with me, to be there for me when I need you. You have no idea what I want."

"Yes Yes Yes……"

"My bad, my bad."

Hearing Han Yijia's words, Zhang Peng felt even more affection for her: "Baby, I will definitely spend more time with you in the future. I know you're not with me for this, but this is my way of expressing my love for you!"

"I think what Teacher Yang Li said is very true: a man's sincerity is not proven by money, but by words alone?"

At the same time, Zhang Peng made up his mind.

This time, um...

At most once, twice, five times...

Well, at most ten more times!

He severed his unhealthy relationship with Miao Yue and decided to treat Han Yijia well from now on to make up for what he owed her.

However, Zhang Peng said so much.

Han Yijia, sitting opposite him, didn't hear a single word; her gaze was completely drawn to the figure outside the window.

Gu Heng!

Han Yijia never expected that she would see Gu Heng again after only two days.

'This must be a special kind of fate...'

At this moment, Han Yijia felt a strong connection with Zhou Xun from last night.

Compared to Gu Heng's more business-like outfits on the previous two occasions, his attire today looks quite casual.

The other person was wearing a Burberry runway black trench coat, over which was a simple black crew neck short-sleeved shirt and black jeans, and on their feet were a pair of black leather boots.

His all-black outfit, combined with his height and proportions comparable to a world-class male model, and his looks that rival those of top male stars, made him stand out from the crowd.

At this moment, he was walking in the middle of the crowd.

On either side of them were middle-aged men and women in suits, exuding an air of sophistication. Just by looking at them, you could tell they were no ordinary people. Behind them were four relatively young men and women, each carrying a briefcase and also dressed in suits. They appeared to be assistants or secretaries.

The group quickly entered the Nanlu Guild Hall.

The restaurant manager personally greeted them, then walked ahead with a smile, leading the way for Gu Heng and the others, his direction clearly towards Han Yijia's location.

"what happened?"

Zhang Peng talked on and on for a long time, but finally realized that Han Yijia's attention was not on him. While he was asking Han Yijia a question, he followed Han Yijia's gaze and looked behind him.

Just then, led by the restaurant manager, Gu Heng, Qin Ying, and the others arrived near Han Yijia's table.

At such close range, and with Han Yijia's unwavering gaze, Gu Heng naturally noticed Han Yijia sitting by the window.

He looked at Han Yijia, whose makeup was exquisite, who was wearing a black strapless dress, and whose hair was obviously carefully styled, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

Then, his gaze swept subtly over Zhang Peng, who was sitting directly opposite Han Yijia. Remembering what Jiang Ruan had told him about Han Yijia's situation, the surprise in his eyes quietly turned into a hint of amusement.

Qin Ying and Xu Ke were both extremely shrewd, and their ability to read people was already unparalleled. They noticed that Gu Heng's expression was strange, and they both quickly glanced at Han Yijia.

However, seeing that Gu Heng showed no sign of stopping, they said nothing and continued to escort him toward a quiet private room in the restaurant.

The group hurried past and quickly disappeared from Han Yijia and Zhang Peng's sight.

He just saw me!

'He definitely remembers me!'

Han Yijia felt a strange sense of joy, and her eyes even lit up.

"Baby……"

"Come and eat the shrimp, it won't taste good if it gets cold."

Zhang Peng placed a bowl full of peeled shrimp in front of Han Yijia and said in a slightly enthusiastic tone.

As for why Han Yijia was staring intently at that group of people, Zhang Peng simply assumed it was Han Yijia's curiosity about high-class people in society. He didn't think of anything else, and he couldn't possibly imagine that Han Yijia, whom he considered a "naive and innocent good girl," was actually a fellow ball player with that young man who looked extremely distinguished.

"Thank you, brother."

Han Yijia replied absentmindedly, her mind already firmly occupied by Gu Heng's image...
