Regretful Beijing Marriage

Xie Xingzhou's dozen or so messages flooded the screen.

Instead of bringing out Fu Huaiyan, it brought out Lu Yunshen, who was still sleeping due to jet lag.

[Is it true? Jiang Yining has gone mad?]

Lu Yunshen couldn't sleep anymore and immediately pressed for answers.

[When sailing, one must not speak carelessly; bigamy is illegal.]

If this is true, then Zhou Xubai must have ulterior motives and is no good. He couldn't possibly not know that Jiang Yining is Mrs. Fu.

Xie Xingzhou had no time to deal with Lu Yunshen.

He was furious when he didn't get a response from Fu Huaiyan.

He tagged Fu Huaiyan again.

You're not going to reply, huh? Fine!

[Lu Yun Shen, come find me now, let's storm over and help Huai Yan beat up that mistress!]

Lu Yunshen was so frightened that he quickly tried to stop him.

Xingzhou, have you lost your temper? We are all prominent figures in Jiangcheng.

Is it something we should do to confront a mistress? What will people think if word gets out?

[A bunch of useless people.]

Xie Xingzhou was extremely frustrated and had nowhere to vent his anger.

Just then, Fu Huaiyan's message finally popped up.

[Xie Xingzhou, if you're bored and have nothing to do, I can arrange something for you.]

With a single, casual remark, he completely shut down all his arguments.

This shows that he has absolutely no feelings for Jiang Yining.

Xie Xingzhou sighed, put away his phone, and left.

Other people's family matters aren't urgent, why is he in such a hurry?

-

Hotel private room.

Jiang Yining handed the menu to Zhou Xubai.

"Xu Bai, this restaurant may not be a five-star hotel, but the food is very authentic. I've been eating here for many years. You should try it."

Zhou Xubai glanced at her relaxed expression, his eyes filled with tenderness.

"Ningning, you can order whatever you like. It's sure to taste great."

Throughout the journey, Zhou Xubai naturally called her by her nickname.

Jiang Yining went from being somewhat puzzled at the beginning to being completely at ease now.

It's just a title.

Call me whatever you want.

After ordering the food, Jiang Yining took the opportunity to bring up the important matter.

"By the way, when is the landlord available? I plan to sign the contract as soon as possible."

"I'll gradually move my things over there these next few days and settle in as soon as possible."

"Now."

Zhou Xubai spoke casually.

"The landlord lives nearby. I've already contacted him, and he'll be here soon."

Jiang Yining was slightly taken aback, caught off guard.

"So fast?"

Before she could say anything more, Ling Yi appeared in the private room with the contract.

He handed the contract to Jiang Yining.

"Ms. Jiang, this is Ling Yi. The contract is ready. Please take a look and if there are no problems, you can sign it directly."

"Monthly rent is 5,000, and utilities and property management fees are all free."

Jiang Yining was completely stunned, her eyes filled with disbelief.

Fully furnished apartments in the heart of Jiangcheng.

This price is ridiculously low.

It's practically free accommodation.

She looked up at Ling Yi, wondering if the price was due to Zhou Xubai.

Only when I looked up did I realize that the other person's expression was stiff and their brows were tense.

Its appearance was extremely strange.

"Mr. Ling, this price is too low. You don't need to give me special treatment. Just go for the market price."

Jiang Yining spoke earnestly, unwilling to take advantage of others.

Zhou Xubai coughed lightly and glanced at Ling Yi indifferently.

Ling Yi froze, then immediately forced a smile.

It's awkward and ugly.

He forced out the sound.

"I'm sorry, Ms. Jiang, I'm naturally expressionless, and my facial expressions are uncontrollable. It wasn't directed at you."

"I agree to all the terms of the contract. I trust the people Mr. Zhou recommended, so you don't need to worry. If there are any problems, we can change them at any time."

Jiang Yining stared wide-eyed, finding this person extremely strange.

But hearing what the other party said, they had no choice but to suppress their doubts.

She looked down and carefully examined the contract.

The entire clause is formal and transparent.

There are no hidden traps.

It's flawless.

After confirming that there were no problems, Jiang Yining signed the document.

Ling Yi accepted the signed contract, feeling as if he had been granted a pardon.

They practically fled in panic.

He wailed inwardly.

I'd rather fight and kill outside than take on this kind of acting job.

This is too difficult!

These days, being a hitman isn't easy!

Jiang Yining: "..."

This person didn't even give her a chance to thank him.

Zhou Xubai spoke up at the right moment to change the subject, his tone natural.

"By the way, Ningning, when are you moving?"

"Just call me when the time comes, I'll be available."

Zhou Xubai then added.

"Don't be polite with me."

Jiang Yining smiled, didn't think much of it, and nodded in agreement.

"Don't worry, I won't stand on ceremony with you."

The two enjoyed their meal in a relaxed and pleasant manner.

Jiang Yining also learned more about Zhou Xubai.

Lawyers really do have a natural sense of humor.

After finishing their meal, the two left the private room.

Just as I reached the entrance, a group of people holding cameras suddenly rushed out from behind me.

The crowd's faces were contorted with rage as they shouted.

"They ran out the back door! Chase them! If you get a picture, it'll be on tomorrow's front page!"

The crowd was jostling and pushing.

Jiang Yining was caught off guard and bumped into by the crowd.

He lost his balance and fell straight backward.

Zhou Xubai reacted quickly, reaching out to support her waist.

Using the momentum, Jiang Yining instinctively reached out and grabbed his collar, barely managing to steady herself.

The distance between the two instantly closed.

After regaining her footing, Jiang Yining immediately released her grip.

"Thank you, I almost fell."

I didn't take this incident to heart.

After leaving the hotel, Jiang Yining said goodbye to Zhou Xubai.

"Xu Bai, I won't go back to the clinic yet. I'm planning to buy a car. You can go ahead and do your thing."

"I happen to be free, so I can come with you."

Zhou Xubai followed up with the conversation.

"I know a lot about cars, so if I go with you to choose one, you won't be easily fooled by the salesperson."

Jiang Yining didn't want to trouble him.

She didn't believe that Zhou Xubai, the president of such a large law firm, would have nothing better to do.

But the other party's sincerity was irresistible.

No matter what she said, he would shut her down with just one sentence: "We're friends."

Left with no other choice, Jiang Yining nodded in agreement and they rode together to the car dealership.

The shop assistants greeted us warmly and kept introducing the various car models.

Zhou Xubai led Jiang Yining directly to the front of the booth and pointed to a Porsche.

"This car is lightweight, easy to handle, and looks great, making it perfect for women to drive."

The shop assistant quickly agreed, his face beaming with smiles.

"Sir, you have excellent taste! This is our store's best-selling model, and the last one left in the entire city!"

After saying that, the shop assistant laughed and joked.

"Miss, your boyfriend has amazing taste; he understands girls' preferences so well."

Jiang Yining paused, about to retort, when a sharp female voice suddenly rang out.

"Huaiyan, I've got my eye on this one, I want it."

Jiang Yining turned her head at the sound, and her gaze suddenly darkened.

Shen Miaoyin was affectionately holding Fu Huaiyan's arm, leaning against him.

He looked up at Jiang Yining, his eyes filled with blatant provocation.

It's those two people again.

unlucky!

Jiang Yining felt a surge of disgust.

My good mood has been ruined.

They completely forgot about the misunderstanding the shop assistant had just caused.

Shen Miaoyin's appearance is never a good thing.

Shen Miaoyin showed no restraint, playfully shaking Fu Huaiyan's arm.

"This is my favorite car, and I want this one."

Fu Huaiyan's expression was calm as he spoke to the shop assistant in a detached manner.

"Swipe your card."

The shop assistant seemed a little embarrassed.

Seeing this, Shen Miaoyin's face turned cold and she exerted pressure from a superior position.

"Is your store not doing business anymore? Do customers have to put up with other people's attitudes just to buy something?"

The store manager rushed over upon hearing the noise.

He apologized repeatedly to Fu Huaiyan.

He turned around and sternly reprimanded the shop assistant.

"Don't you know any better? If Mrs. Fu wants to buy it, she'll give you the stars in the sky!"

Jiang Yining felt a pang in her heart and subconsciously looked at Fu Huaiyan.

Fu Huaiyan's gaze was indifferent, but his eyes seemed to fall on Shen Miaoyin almost imperceptibly.

He tacitly agreed with what the store manager said.

Jiang Yining gave a cold laugh.

He won't divorce her, and he'll keep the old lady calm.

However, to outsiders, Madam Fu is Shen Miaoyin.

Fu Huaiyan's life is truly carefree.

Feeling wronged, the shop assistant looked awkwardly at Jiang Yining and apologized in a low voice.

"I'm sorry, ma'am, this is indeed the last one left."

Jiang Yining shook her head gently, her expression calm and composed, and walked off the stage with ease.

"It's okay, I'll look at other things."

As she spoke, she casually glanced at Shen Miaoyin, whose face was full of smugness, and a cold sneer curled at the corner of her lips.

"Some people are just not classy enough; they like to take what others have left over."

"Perfect, I wasn't that keen on it anyway, you can have it."

"I'll give you the man I don't want, along with everything else."
