After hitting the Rolls-Royce, the top-tier green tea started fishing.

Ruan Zhining, however, was not in the mood to appreciate the beauty of the street.

She looked up but couldn't see Wen Chongyan's expression; instead, she saw Yin Jianhang standing not far away.

Yin Jianhang was wearing a hat and mask, fully disguised. But Ruan Zhining knew him too well and could recognize him at a glance.

He watched Ruan Zhining and Wen Chongyan holding hands, his peach blossom eyes narrowing slightly.

Ruan Zhining knew that the opportunity was too late. As she passed a chain coffee shop, she hurriedly said, "I need to use the restroom."

This reason was impossible to refuse. Wen Chongyan was waiting for her at the door.

Ruan Zhining quickly went into the coffee shop's restroom, where Yin Jianhang was already waiting for her.

He pulled down his mask, revealing a languidly handsome face, and raised an eyebrow at her.

"It wasn't easy. I followed you guys the whole way, like a voyeur. How are you going to make it up to me?"

Ruan Zhining kicked him as compensation.

Yin Jianhang let out a howl and hugged his leg, "Thank you for the gift, beautiful lady."

Ruan Zhining didn't have time to banter with him. She quickly opened her down jacket and took off the 2400 million yuan jewelry necklace.

Yin Jianhang also took out a box from his pocket and opened it. The counterfeit was almost identical, with a similar luster, making it impossible for non-professionals to identify.

"No matter what, we Chinese are still the best. We're all-around capable; there's nothing we can't do."

"Don't make a mistake." Ruan Zhining carefully put the real necklace in, then put the fake one back around her neck.

She asked, "Have you found another job yet?"

"You have good taste. Someone wants this necklace. My friend has connections, and we're negotiating the price."

Yin Jianhang tossed the box around, put it back in his arms, and then asked her...

"Such an expensive thing, Wen Chongyan just bought it for you like that? Didn't you say he was a tea connoisseur? He doesn't seem like one to me."

"That's him. He can even judge tea." Ruan Zhining straightened her clothes.

"Do you like him?" Yin Jianhang asked abruptly.

Ruan Zhining suddenly looked up at him, "What nonsense are you talking about? How could I possibly like him?"

"Do you think he likes you?"

"Of course he doesn't like me. Oh, he probably likes my figure and face, after all, I'm so beautiful."

Yin Jianhang didn't say anything, but when Ruan Zhining was about to leave, he suddenly said,

"I advise you not to stay too long. Leave once you've taken your revenge. I think a man like Wen Chongyan... who can refrain from sleeping with women, is usually the kind of crazy guy who gets entangled and can't be shaken off. Don't end up unable to leave."

Ruan Zhining paused for a moment, then quickly left the restroom.

Wen Chongyan was clearly getting impatient, constantly raising his hand to check his watch. Ruan Zhining had a sudden inspiration and took two straws from the coffee shop.

She came out through the side door and hugged Wen Chongyan from behind.

Wen Chongyan turned around and was about to pull her hand down when he saw a heart she had folded out with two red straws.

"This is for you." Having gotten rid of the necklace, she was in a good mood, her eyes shining. "Mr. Wen, do you like it?"

Wen Chongyan looked down at the heart, his face expressionless. Clearly, he didn't like it.

Ruan Zhining knew, of course, that he wouldn't like it. She pouted and explained in a natural tone why it had taken so long: "I was inside having the shop assistant teach me how to fold it for a long time."

"Never mind, I'll just throw it away."

She reached out to throw it, but Wen Chongyan frowned and said coldly, "Are you going to litter? Wipe your nose."

What?! How could Ruan Zhining allow herself to have snot? She quickly took out a tissue to wipe it.

Wen Chongyan held the heart shape folded from the straw, scoffed, twirled it a few times with his slender fingers, and finally put it into his coat pocket.

The two continued walking and stopped under the huge central wishing well and Christmas tree.

Many people were throwing coins into the pool and closing their eyes to make a wish.

Ruan Zhining is most easily attracted to these kinds of activities. Seeing several pretty girls throwing coins, she wanted to do it too, so she ran to a convenience store to exchange them for coins.

He handed one to Wen Chongyan, asking, "Mr. Wen, would you like to make a wish?"

Wen Chongyan glanced at her but ignored her. Clearly, he forbade it.

Ruan Zhining thought about it and agreed. With so much money, what else could they possibly wish for? If they made any more wishes, they'd be struck by lightning.

She then happily clasped her hands together, raised them, and closed her eyes.

She wished that as the year drew to a close, her sister would recover quickly, that she could leave Beijing smoothly by the end of the year, and successfully settle down in Canada, and also—

Successfully, he has sold everything at a high price as a second-hand item.

Wen Chongyan stood there, surrounded by girls staring at him. He didn't show any expression, just looked down at the girl next to him who had closed her eyes and was making a wish.

What wish would she make?

He must be in her dreams. After all, she so desperately wants to marry into a wealthy family.

Marrying him smoothly and becoming the mistress of the Wen family is probably her biggest wish right now.

There was nothing worth his investigation. Wen Chongyan watched as Ruan Zhining tossed a coin into the pool with hopeful eyes, and his gaze followed hers.

The bottom of the pool was full of coins, carrying everyone's wishes.

He didn't want anything, nor did he have any desires.

If I had to name one...

Then let him, in the new year, thoroughly understand and subdue Ruan Zhining's manipulative tactics, and make her stay obediently in Tanyuan.

Tell her not to go to Jiang Linfeng again, no matter what happens.

Even contacting Cheng Che didn't work.

……

Three days later, Ruan Zhining returned to China with Wen Chongyan.

As the year drew to a close, things got busier at school, and she completed her credits ahead of schedule in order to leave early.

In addition, I had to write my thesis in advance, which made me extremely busy, running around the school every day.

Of course, Ruan Zhining wouldn't forget to collect gold coins. Every day after class, she would go back to Tanyuan to learn how to cook from the chef (also so that she could cook delicious food herself after going abroad).

Fortunately, Wen Chongyan wasn't that busy, and he could come back almost every day to eat her "love dinner".

Ruan Zhining occasionally makes a big splash, and she has become famous for selling secondhand goods on Xiaohongshu, earning her the nickname "Secondhand Rich Sister" with over 10 followers.

She couldn't help but sigh. Just a few months ago, when she went on a cruise, she called the woman "rich lady," and now she was being addressed that way. Fate is truly unpredictable.

What made her even happier was the significant rise in gold prices. The total value of the gold bars she currently holds exceeds 900 million.

She was secretly delighted, and the first thing she did every day when she returned to Tan Garden was to check if the gold bars hidden in her wardrobe were still there.

After finishing the inspection, she turned her head and saw the calendar on the bedside table—

It was covered with circles.

There are only 7 days left until the three-month trial period for her and Wen Chongyan to be his girlfriend.
