Yun Qiao eventually learned about Jiang Chengyun's engagement.

She has a set of jewelry consigned to a luxury boutique. Her mother's chemotherapy is going well, and the doctor recommended an imported targeted therapy. It's expensive, but has fewer side effects, and she wants to try it.

She always needed to keep some spare money. She picked out one of the sets of jewelry she brought from Jiang Chengyun to sell. It was her birthday gift two years ago, which cost more than 50 yuan. She hadn't worn it much, but now she could probably sell it for thirty or forty yuan. It wasn't a limited edition, but she had to wait for it.

The day before yesterday, the shop owner informed her that a girl had taken a liking to the product but thought the price was too high and asked if they could discuss it in person.

As a result, I ran into someone I knew.

They weren't exactly close. This girl had probably dated a friend of Jiang Chengyun for a while, and the two had met a couple of times on various occasions.

Back then, Yun Qiao was the envy of everyone. Jiang Chengyun came from a good family and was handsome. Although he was a bit of a rogue, he didn't mess around. Over the years, he took Yun Qiao with him wherever he went, and introduced her as a proper girlfriend. He never flirted with other women.

Regardless of whether they can end up together, at least in the eyes of outsiders, Jiang Chengyun treats her exceptionally well.

Now, Jiang Chengyun has already sent out invitations to his engagement banquet with the Tan family's daughter.

Humans have their flaws, and seeing Yun Qiao reduced to selling jewelry, they naturally wanted to ridicule her.

Yun Qiao practically fled in panic. This was the first time she had cried so hard since they had been apart for so long. She thought she had prepared herself mentally and could accept it, but when she heard the news of his engagement, she was still heartbroken.

She didn't dare go home and sat alone on a bench in the community for a long time until her eyes looked less red. Then she put on a smile and went upstairs, where her father had prepared a meal and was waiting for her.

Early Monday morning, Fang Youxi's early flight.

Mu Wangbei drove to deliver it himself. He asked the office for two hours off, saying he had some personal business to attend to.

When a model worker asks for leave, no one objects. The deputy director even asked him: "Why don't you rest this morning? You've been working too much overtime lately. I'm afraid the Supreme Court next door will say we're breaking the law."

Fang Youxi was in his car, his phone connected via Bluetooth. Hearing the deputy director say that, he covered his mouth to stifle a laugh.

She laughed out loud after the call ended.

Mu Wangbei noticed that she was rarely unhappy; she always had a smile on her face and seemed carefree.

"Mu Wangbei, you took the day off to take me to the airport, is it because of Lu Yanli?" Fang Youxi leaned against the passenger side and smiled at him. "I'll give you a new idea. From now on, treat him like your money-making god. Seeing him is like seeing Fang Youxi's money-making partner. For every 100 yuan he earns, 5% belongs to your girlfriend. He's like a walking money-making machine. When your girlfriend has money, she can buy you candy. Wouldn't that make you feel better?"

not at all.

Although this thought process was quite peculiar, Mu Wangbei's greatest wish was for Lu Yanli to completely disappear from Fang Youxi's side.

"For every 100 yuan I earn, I keep 5% for myself and give you the remaining 95%. You've taken it all." Mu Wangbei said indignantly as he drove. Fang Youxi was almost amused by him. What a stingy guy.

Mu Wangbei may be stingy, but he still took time off work to see her off when she went on a business trip. It was really kind of him.

When the two arrived at the airport, they didn't run into Lu Yanli, but they saw their colleagues from the accounting firm and greeted each other.

Fang Youxi patted Mu Wangbei's arm and teased him, "You're disappointed that you didn't see President Lu? You should go back to work. If all else fails, you can take Friday afternoon off to pick him up at the airport. You're sure to run into him then."

Mu Wangbei, unwilling to admit his feelings, kissed her forehead and said, "Eat well, be careful, I'm leaving now."

After waving goodbye, Fang Youxi went to get her boarding pass. She wanted to upgrade to a higher class out of her own pocket, but the ground staff told her that she had already been upgraded.

Lu Yanli usually arrives right on time. He always flies business class, while his assistant and the accompanying lawyers and accountants fly economy class, according to the group's policy. To make Fang Tangtang more comfortable, he paid out of his own pocket to upgrade the others' cabins as well, and also booked a hotel that was a bit more upscale than usual.

When we met in the waiting room, the accountant joked, "Lu Tong's standards are really high. It would be a disservice to President Lu if our project didn't go public."

Assistant Guo thought to himself: We should thank Attorney Fang. President Lu paid for it personally, and the marriage proposal fell through. I don't know what he was after.

After boarding, Fang Youxi was seated next to Lu Yanli, two rows away from the accountant and Guo Yang who were traveling with her. Lu Yanli asked her, "Did you go shopping again this weekend? Tang Yi said you didn't go back to your grandfather's house on Saturday."

"Tsk, why do you always have my older brother watching me?"

"I'm just concerned about you. I even met your future sister-in-law yesterday."

On Sunday, he asked Tang Yi to talk about something. Tang Yi said he was going to have dinner and asked if he didn't mind if they could join him.

When he arrived, he found Peng Shu there as well.

Fang Youxi became interested: "My brother's progress is fast! I haven't even met Miss Peng yet. What do you think? Do you have any chemistry?"

"What do plastic couples need a bicycle for? But Miss Peng seems like a reasonable person. As for your brother," Lu Yanli thought for a moment, trying to figure out how to describe her, and finally concluded: "They're only superficially compatible."

Fang Youxi: ...

nerve!!!

"Don't talk about my brother. Even plastic flowers have their spring."

Alright, the young lady is very protective of her own.

In Lu Yanli's mind, Fang Tangtang was not only a lawyer who provided legal services to Lu Tong, but also his partner.

The Tang family holds a 5% stake in Lutong Group, which is a significant percentage, and they also have a seat on the board of directors.

Moreover, Lu Tong is preparing to divest its overseas business and go public, while Tang's family is also preparing to increase its share capital. The two families have a long-standing friendship. Tang Zhanghe had mentioned these shares to him before, intending to give them as a dowry for his daughter. Now, although their marriage alliance has temporarily fallen through, who can say what will happen next?

If in the end, Fang Tangtang still gets those shares, then Lu Tong will be considered their company.

Fang Tangtang is quite capable. Even if she leaves Haotian one day and comes to Lutong, she will at least be a VP-level employee.

His feelings for her weren't just a man's appreciation for a woman, but also an appreciation for a colleague. I wonder if they could be considered a couple.

With nothing else to do, Lu Yanli casually remarked, "This wretched place in Beicheng is already congested early in the morning. I even encountered a car accident when I came here. There's nothing we can do; we have things to discuss when we get there. Early morning flights are exhausting, so you should get some sleep."

"Yeah, I had a pretty good bowel movement this morning. Mu Wangbei might not even need to ask for leave after dropping me off and rushing back to work."

Lu Yanli stared in disbelief, his mind went blank for a moment, and everything went black before his eyes.

Mu Wangbei, who brought her to the airport?

Have they made up?
