A secret tryst? Her brotherly love triangle backfired.

Chapter 159 She was actually... a little sad too.

Tang Wanwan stepped out of his embrace, mustered her courage to look at his face, and said, "I'm sorry, after being together for a month, I feel that we are not very suitable. Let's break up and cool off."

Under the moonlight, her round, almond-shaped eyes were full of caution.

She seemed very afraid of making him angry.

There was no intention to sever ties with him or to resolutely cut off all contact.

She seemed even more disgusted with him than she is now when she broke up with him that night at the hospital.

...What exactly happened?

Jiang Yanzhi did not understand.

He found it very strange.

She is very strange.

Their relationship was strange from the very beginning.

It's strange that they're breaking up now.

Various speculations kept emerging, only to be repeatedly denied.

The pain made him restless.

Jiang Yanzhi tried his best to suppress his rising anger and calm himself down so he could think things through.

Why did she do that?!
If she approached him with her own ulterior motives, then those motives have not yet been achieved, and she has gained nothing.

Why did you break up?

why!
He stared into the girl's eyes, trying to read more information from them.

What can be determined is that she did not truly hate him.

she……

"Are you sure?"

Jiang Yanzhi took a deep breath, raised his hand, grabbed the back of her neck, and pulled her close to him. "Tang Wanwan, are you sure you want to break up with me?"

“…Hmm,” Tang Wanwan pursed her lips and said, “Are you sure you want to break up?”

It remains as steadfast as ever.

Jiang Yanzhi looked at her intently and said, "Okay."

Upon hearing this, a look of relief and joy suddenly appeared in Tang Wanwan's eyes.

Jiang Yanzhi's forehead veins throbbed as he watched.

She had to do it.

For some reason, she had to break up with him.

Is this the truth?
Who would dare threaten her?
For the first time, Jiang Yanzhi doubted his own judgment.

He tightened his grip on the back of her neck, tentatively asking, "Is there any chance we can get back together?"

"!!!" Tang Wanwan's pupils dilated in shock, and she blurted out, "No, no, no, let's not get back together yet!"

Jiang Yanzhi: "..."

He was silent for a moment, then slowly pulled the person into his arms, saying in a tone that was both angry and helpless, "You're just playing with me."

After saying that, he released his arm, turned around, and left.

They left cleanly and decisively.

The roar of the car engine startled Tang Wanwan awake.

...They broke up?
He agreed so easily.

Tang Wanwan felt like she was dreaming.

She touched her face.

Finally, as Jiang Yanzhi left, it seemed...it appeared...he kissed her.

…………

After the successful breakup, Tang Wanwan felt lightheaded, unsure whether she was happy or excited, but certainly not sad.

It wasn't until she was sitting in the car sent by Shen Zhixing and heard Qian Qinglei ask if they had broken up cleanly that she finally felt the reality of the breakup.

The initial excitement of 'mission accomplished' slowly subsided, and she belatedly felt a tightness in her chest.

Royal Club.

Shen Zhixing's men led them directly to his private room.

The private room was neither too big nor too small; it was probably a place for discussing business or gathering with a few friends.

When the lights are turned off, the ceiling is a starry sky.

The drinks were also prepared in advance. They were wines that would appeal to girls.

Qian Qinglei drank one glass, then shook her head repeatedly, insisting on having a freshly made cocktail.

Soon, a bartender arrived to serve the two of them.

Tang Wanwan also started drinking.

She was actually a little sad about the breakup.

Perhaps there are many things that cannot be said without the aid of alcohol.

After a few drinks, Tang Wanwan asked the question that had been bothering her for so many days, "Why didn't you tell me that Fu Jing was just messing around?"

Qian Qinglei downed her wine in one gulp, "What can you do about it?"

What can I do?
The Tang family had some wealth, but they were all cultured people; how could they possibly compete with the Fu family of Beijing?

Of all the people Tang Wanwan knew, the only ones who could help were Jiang Yanzhi, Shen Xianyu, and Shen Zhixing.

"After we came back from the ancient town, you said you would break up with Jiang Yanzhi and asked me to beg Jiang Yanzhi. In my opinion, it was no different from me begging Fu Jingbai."

All of these come at a price.

Jiang Yanzhi may not be as cunning as Fu Jingbai, but when he needs someone's help, he can't break up as cleanly and decisively as he did today.

Qian Qinglei rested her head on her shoulder and said, "I can't let you compromise yourself for me and even have to worry about breaking up."

This is indeed the reason.

“You’re incredibly stupid,” Tang Wanwan said, feeling the wine in her mouth taste bitter. “If you had just said one word to me, Fu Jingbai wouldn’t have been so reckless, and I wouldn’t have had to suffer like this.”

She can break up with him if she wants to.

Qian Qinglei didn't believe it; she had experienced firsthand the domineering nature of those powerful young men.

A good temper is all just a facade.

In Qian Qinglei's view, even Jiang Yanzhi's ability to agree to break up so easily was quite unrealistic.

She frowned slightly. "You really broke up with Jiang Yanzhi?"

"We've broken up," Tang Wanwan said, "completely and cleanly."

"...Is he that easy to talk to? Or is it that your breaking up with him is exactly what he wanted?"

Qian Qinglei imagined a whole series of scenarios.

Suddenly, remembering Fu Jingbai's words, "If you get tired of sleeping with him, then break up," she shuddered slightly, leaned closer, and whispered, "Have you slept with him?"

Did Jiang Yanzhi feel he'd had enough and was thinking of breaking up, and then she brought it up, so he readily agreed?

Upon understanding her subtext, Tang Wanwan's expression became inscrutable.

That damned Fu Jingbai.

They actually harmed her pure and lovely Leilei, turning her into this state.

When I heard the guy agree to break up, my first reaction was this.

She pursed her lips. "I'm not asleep yet."

Qian Qinglei nodded, relieved but also puzzled.

I absolutely do not believe that there is such a thing as love for a man.

Tang Wanwan absolutely hated Fu Jingbai.

Holding her wine glass, she said cautiously, "Don't think like that. There are still good men in the world, look at Xu Yang..."

At this point, her expression turned serious: "When are you going to get back together with Xu Yang?"

complex.

Thinking of the hickey on her neck when they broke up, Qian Qinglei downed another glass of wine. "We're not getting back together."

"Why?" Tang Wanwan was startled. "Are you afraid Xu Yang will mind...?"

"No!" Qian Qinglei said, "You know, the day we broke up, I wanted to make up an excuse and talk to Xu Yang properly, but Fu Jing stabbed me in the neck..."

She only wanted to maintain that positive, sunny, and pure image in front of Xu Yang.

Instead of breaking up with him while still bearing traces of other men.

He gave reasons to deceive him, but was exposed on the spot.

That day, that feeling of shame and embarrassment returned.

Qian Qinglei tilted her head back and, after a long while, suddenly said, "If I had the chance, I would really like to make Fu Jingbai taste all the heart-wrenching pain he has inflicted on me."

all.

　I'm so tired of writing this, should I speed things up and finish it quickly...?
