After five bigwigs in Beijing's elite circle fell into their trap, I fled.

Chapter 150 Everyone has their own thoughts

Ning Yunzhan also took out his phone and opened the group chat interface.

Within the pet camp group.

The smug cat: [Both of you, did you turn off your phones last night?]

The Queen's Loyal Dog: [Yes, something has happened.]

The smug cat: [???]

ten minutes later.

The Queen's Loyal Dog: [That Divine Pharmacist from Shanghai Has Arrived in Beijing]

Saying only half of what you mean is also an art.

Inside the luxury car, Jiang Shu looked at Li Yubai sitting beside her and exclaimed in amazement:
"No wonder you're able to do big business! I could never learn that way of speaking in my entire life."

Li Yubai smiled without saying a word.

Within the group chat. A few more minutes passed, and then there was a response—

Beiming Youyu: [So he was busy entertaining that master last night.]

The smug cat: [That woman, she's not going to join us, is she?]

The Queen's loyal dog: [No, I'm watching.]

The smug cat: [Keep a close eye on things. If a sixth person shows up in the house to try and take my treasure, regardless of gender, I'll wipe them out too.]

The Queen's loyal dog: [...]

Since there was no more gossip to dig up, the group gradually quieted down.

On the beach in Country Y, Feng Li clicked his tongue, a little annoyed: "I've only been gone for two days, and you're already missing my darling."

Ning Yunzhan smiled gently: "Speaking of which, the Crown Prince controls the global entertainment industry and must have seen all kinds of top beauties. How could he be so affectionate towards our sugar daddy?"

"I was lustful at first sight," Feng Li replied lazily. "He just happens to be my type. There's a Chinese saying, 'Love arises without knowing where it comes from, and deepens with time,' which probably describes how I feel about my sugar daddy."

Ning Yunzhan said thoughtfully, "I believe in love at first sight for ordinary people."

"What do you mean?"

“I don’t believe it if it’s the Crown Prince.” Ning Yunzhan smiled meaningfully. “I suspect there must be another reason.”

Feng Li chuckled, neither confirming nor denying.

He closed his eyes to rest for a while, then suddenly asked, "And what about you?"

Ning Yunzhan's gaze fell on the moonlight: "Hmm?"

Feng Li's peach blossom eyes swept over his face: "After spending so much time together, you're definitely not a person with depression, so why are you getting close to my darling..."

He paused for a moment, then asked, "And what are you after?"

Ning Yunzhan suddenly turned his head and met Feng Li's gaze.

Ten seconds later.

The two casually looked away, tacitly agreeing to leave the topic untouched.

"Such a beautiful moon, I wonder how much longer we can enjoy it... Let's put aside our curiosity and appreciate the moon properly, shall we?" Ning Yunzhan raised his glass of red wine to Feng Li, his voice slow and deliberate, "Cheers."

Feng casually clinked glasses with him, the red wine entering his lips, his lips shimmering, his gaze gradually deepening.

imperial capital.

Three o'clock in the afternoon, at the coffee shop.

Li Yubai sat in the luxury car parked outside the coffee shop, casually picking up a newly bought belt and fiddling with it. His seat and trunk were completely filled with gift bags printed with the logos of various men's brands.

Assistant Shen was driving. While keeping an eye on the BOSS's expression in the rearview mirror, he cautiously spoke:
"Boss, Miss Jiang is so kind to you, she bought you so many things."

Li Yubai's gentle features gave him a soft "hmm": "From now on, call me Madam."

"Yes." Assistant Shen immediately changed his words, "Madam, she truly loves you."

Li Yubai's gaze towards Assistant Shen softened considerably.

Inside the coffee shop, in private room 101.

Jiang Shu handed the medicine cauldron to Xia Ruo: "Here's what you wanted." Xia Ruo carefully took it with both hands, her tone filled with gratitude: "Thank you so much, Master Jiang! I sent it to you as soon as the new medicine was ready."

Jiang Shu rubbed her temples: "Don't rush the medicine, you should take care of your personal matters first."

"Mr. Jiang, you don't look like you've had enough rest?"

"Last night was a bit of a hassle." Jiang Shu didn't explain much. "When are you going back? Do you need me to take you?"

“No need, I’ve secretly arranged for someone to escort me.” Xia Ruo raised her wrist to check the time. “My flight is at 6:30 in the evening, so I can still have an hour of coffee with Master Jiang.”

When Jiang Shu came out again, Li Yubai was still waiting in the car.

She got into the car and handed him a cup of hot coffee: "Go do what you need to do in the future, don't wait around."

"Nothing is more important than waiting for you."

Assistant Shen has already raised the barrier.

Jiang Shu looked at Li Yubai: "After last night, you're not planning to cling to me, are you?"

Li Yubai slowly took a sip of coffee and asked with a smile, "Is that alright?"

"No way! You only suffered some minor injuries. I'm pretty sure I didn't ruin your reputation!"

Li Yubai smiled noncommittally.

Jiang Shu looked pitiful: "I've already made it up to you. I spent almost two-thirds of my savings on shopping today. It's okay if it happens once in a while, but if you keep relying on me, I can't afford to support you. I really can't afford to support you."

“My patron has misunderstood,” Li Yubai said softly. “You and I have always had a sugar daddy/sugar baby relationship. Talking about whether you’re clinging to someone or not will only create distance.”

Jiang Shu breathed a sigh of relief: "Mm."

Li Yubai added, "I'm waiting for you because I want to take you to the company and demonstrate how to turn a business around. Don't forget, these past two days, besides being your Li Yubai, I've also been your financial experience mentor."

Jiang Shu was a little embarrassed and tugged at his sleeve: "I was just being petty and judging you by my own standards!"

Li Yubai stopped talking, his gaze lingered for a moment on the red mark on her neck, then he lowered his eyes as if nothing had happened, concealing the possessiveness in his eyes.

5:40 AM, Beijing Airport.

Xia Ruo entered the business class cabin, escorted by a group of bodyguards.

Then, the bodyguards sat down around her, protecting her closely.

In the back of economy class, Xia Ruo's husband, Li Yishen, sat with the daughter of a high-ranking official, watching curiously.

"I don't know who that person is. Not only did they book the entire business class, but they also took up all the good seats in economy class," the high-ranking executive's daughter complained.

While comforting her, Li Yishen glanced at Xia Ruo, who had stood up and was leaning against a conspicuous spot drinking tea, a look of amazement in his eyes.

The high-society heiress's gaze turned cold: "What, have you set your sights on something higher and are tempted?"

"Don't talk nonsense, I was just curious to take a look." Li Yishen withdrew his gaze.

"It's a deal, I'll confront your wife when I get back this time!" The high-society heiress said arrogantly. "I've already sent you my bank account number, so hurry up and transfer all your assets over here in the next couple of days."

Li Yishen flattered her, saying, "Don't worry, I won't leave her a single penny; it's all yours."

"And another thing, you're not allowed to bring your daughter along," the high-society heiress sneered. "I'm not going to be a stepmother."

"Okay, okay, I don't want to." Li Yishen nodded indifferently.

Inside the business class cabin, Xia Ruo vaguely heard this conversation, slowly put down her teacup, and returned to her seat.

His gaze fell on the window, his expression calm and undisturbed.

Lee Group.

But there was a large group of people who were so shocked they wanted to scream!
When Li Yubai got out of the car, he looked at the blazing sun outside and frowned slightly: "It's hotter than usual today."

After saying that, he casually and considerately unbuttoned Jiang Shu's neck button, and then naturally unbuttoned two of his own buttons as well.

"How are you feeling? Are you feeling cooler now?" he asked considerately.

Jiang Shu nodded: "Let's hurry inside and enjoy the air conditioning."

Li Yubai put a mask on her, then took her arm around her waist and got out of the car. Under the watchful eyes of everyone, they slowly walked through the lobby of the office building.
