My ex-boyfriend cheated on me with my sister, and I got married to him in a flash; he went crazy.

Pei Yichen tapped his fingers absentmindedly on the table, then looked at Jiang Shutong and asked, "Would you like some red wine?"

Jiang Shutong was still reeling from the shock of the manager of Hemingxuan being so respectful to Pei Yichen. When faced with Pei Yichen's question, it took her a long time to react. She quickly shook her head, "No, no need, I just ordered drinks..."

"Okay, Mr. Pei, please feel free to contact me if you need anything."

After exchanging a few pleasantries, the manager respectfully withdrew.

The expressions on the faces of everyone in the private room changed immediately, and no one doubted that Pei Yichen was a gigolo hired by Jiang Shutong.

After all, even the manager of Hemingxuan treated him with utmost respect, and those who frequented Hemingxuan were usually scions of wealthy and powerful families in Beijing.

Bai Ruwei's face immediately turned ashen, and her hands under the table nearly tore her skirt to shreds.

Damn it, Jiang Shutong is so lucky, every man she dates is richer than the last!

Why should she have to give herself to a fat, ugly old man like Sun Yuanjing...?

She is not reconciled.

Pei Yichen's phone rang, and he got up and went to the window to answer it.

The others in the private room couldn't contain themselves any longer and began to inquire about Pei Yichen's identity. "Shu Tong, what does your husband do? It seems like he comes here to eat often..."

Jiang Shutong tried her best to maintain her composure and nodded, saying, "Yeah, didn't I say today? My husband doesn't eat at ordinary restaurants; he only eats at Hemingxuan..."

She avoided explaining Pei Yichen's status as an ordinary employee, while subtly confirming his extraordinary spending power.

There's no other way. When faced with a group of colleagues who fawn over the powerful and belittle the weak, the best thing to do is to let them be envious and jealous.

That's how the meal ended.

Bai Ruwei had no choice but to grit her teeth and pay the bill.

When she saw the bill, she almost had a heart attack and fainted.

She just made a stupid decision by ordering several very expensive signature dishes, plus the wine Jiang Shutong ordered, this meal cost her half a year's salary.

That's equivalent to her working for free for half a year.

But even though the money was spent, I still had to save face.

She didn't show any sign of regret, and instead smiled generously, saying, "Although tonight's meal cost me half a year's salary, it was well worth it. I hope you all enjoy your meal tonight..."

Everyone naturally showered her with compliments, praising her generosity and magnanimity.

After enjoying the emotional value, Bai Ruwei smiled at Jiang Shutong and said, "Shutong, congratulations! You used to bring that Young Master Xu to every monthly dinner party, and seeing how lovey-dovey you two were, we all thought you were definitely getting married. But we never expected..."

Faced with this clearly provocative remark, Jiang Shutong linked arms with Pei Yichen, chuckled, and looked at her, "Yes, I still remember how you used to fawn over him at every dinner party. Now that I've broken up with him, you can go after him... I just don't know if he'll even be interested in you?"

After saying this, Jiang Shutong took the arm of the man beside her and said sweetly, "Honey, let's go."

Pei Yichen's lips curved into a barely perceptible smile. "Okay."

Watching the two leave the private room, Bai Ruwei forced a smile and said to everyone, "Shu Tong really seems to want to steal her boyfriend from everyone. I guess she's just not confident enough..."

Xu Qiaoxin rolled her eyes dismissively. "You're so shameless. Would a beauty like Shu Tong lack confidence because of you?"

Bai Ruwei: ……

-

Pei Yichen drank alcohol during a business dinner tonight and cannot drive.

Li Kai was already waiting in his car in the underground parking garage.

Jiang Shutong felt a little embarrassed. "Li Kai, I'm sorry to trouble you."

Fortunately, she didn't do anything to betray Li Kai tonight.

Li Kai: "It's nothing, it's what I should do..."

As soon as they got in the car, Jiang Shutong couldn't help but ask, "Pei Yichen, why was the manager of Hemingxuan so polite to you?"

Even if an ordinary employee of Boyu Group has a high salary, it's hard to afford to frequently dine at Hemingxuan.

Moreover, he also saved up enough money to buy a house and a car.

Pei Yichen didn't explain much, "I often accompany company clients to social events."

Jiang Shutong was somewhat surprised that a programmer at Boyu Group actually needed to socialize.

Before she could say anything more, her phone rang.

It was her younger sister, Jiang Muqing, calling. She answered the call.

Jiang Muqing sounded anxious on the phone, "Sister, I haven't been able to contact Mingze these past two days. I heard from his assistant that you sent him to the police station?"

In the quiet car, Jiang Muqing's angry questioning was particularly clear.

Jiang Shutong awkwardly lowered the microphone volume, then said sarcastically, "I don't have that kind of power to send anyone to jail. If he's in jail, it's only because he committed a crime."

Jiang Muqing was furious. "You and Mingze have been together for two years. Even if he did something wrong, you can't be so heartless!"

Today, Xu Mingze's assistant told her that Xu Mingze might spend two or three years in prison.

She felt like the sky had fallen.

Without Xu Mingze as her ATM, how would she survive?

Jiang Shutong leisurely enjoyed Jiang Muqing's exasperation, "You're still the little sister I've doted on for over twenty years, but when you stole my boyfriend, you showed absolutely no mercy..."

Jiang Muqing: "You keep saying you love me, your sister, but Mingze is your future brother-in-law. Can't you just let him go?"

Brother-in-law?

Jiang Shutong chuckled and said, "Are you so sure you'll marry into the Xu family?"

She could tell that Mr. and Mrs. Xu did not like Jiang Muqing.

It will probably be a bit difficult for Jiang Muqing to marry Xu Mingze.

Jiang Muqing, on the other hand, looked confident. "Of course, as long as Brother Mingze likes me, none of these things are a problem."

If she gets pregnant with Xu Mingze's child, marrying into the family will be a piece of cake.

But now Xu Mingze is in jail...

"Okay, then I'll be waiting to drink your wedding wine."

Jiang Shutong hung up after speaking, glancing out of the corner of her eye at the man beside her who was resting with his eyes closed.

Pei Yichen knew about her messy affairs, so she didn't feel embarrassed.

Li Kai, however, asked her, somewhat gossipy, about her ex-boyfriend getting together with her sister.

Jiang Shutong also said a few words, and also mentioned that Xu Mingze had tried to drug her.

Li Kai glanced at Pei Yichen's gloomy face in the rearview mirror and said indignantly, "Sister-in-law, this kind of scum must be punished by law and rot in jail. I know a very good lawyer, how about I introduce you to him..."
