"Come to my room," Yu Yunting said.

Jane looked up in surprise, only to see that he had already turned around. "I want to talk to you for a bit."

Upon hearing his words, the two friends who had originally planned to join the fun wisely stopped in their tracks.

Jane ignored the stares directed at her, quickly walked through the crowd, and caught up with Yu Yunting.

He had long legs and a long stride. Jane had to jog to keep up.

Jane Ailing wasn't very good with directions, so she could only follow Yu Yunting as he turned corners in the deep corridor.

He suddenly stopped, and she almost couldn't brake in time, crashing into him.

Jane followed him into a spacious room with thick, soft Persian handmade carpets on the floor. A wine cabinet stood nearby, filled with rows of liquors she couldn't name. In front of her was a large movie screen, next to a pool table, and other recreational facilities.

With a "click," Yu Yunting closed the heavy wooden door.

"You make a scene about getting a divorce in front of me, but you're quite adept at using the title 'Mrs. Yu' outside," the man behind him taunted.

Jane lowered her head guiltily, not daring to look at him. "Um...didn't you say I'm still Mrs. Yu?"

Yu Yunting sneered, "What are you doing here?"

"I came here to find someone, but they wouldn't let me in, so..." Jane explained softly.

"Ding Chongwen, he's Yan Yan's new boyfriend..." She suddenly remembered something, her eyes lighting up as she turned around. "Zhu Yan, she's your cousin! No matter what, you, as her cousin, should help her, right?"

"What does her boyfriend have to do with you?"

"I suspect her boyfriend is a jerk, and he's having a date with another woman here!" Jane Ailing's voice became agitated as she spoke. "I don't want her to be fooled by a jerk!"

"Yu Yunting, don't you hate it when people cheat? Your cousin's boyfriend cheated on her, shouldn't you help him out?" Her tone softened, and she tugged at Yu Yunting's sleeve.

"But it's you who's looking for me now."

"……so what?"

"So I'm helping you." Before she could react, Yu Yunting pressed the service bell next to him.

There was a knock at the door. She recognized the manager's voice from earlier. "Mr. Yu, what can I do for you?"

"Come in."

The manager pushed open the door, glanced at Yu Yunting sitting in the velvet armchair, and at Jian Ailing standing somewhat helplessly to the side.

"Ding Chongwen, is this person here?"

Although they should protect the guests' privacy, the manager dared not refuse to answer since Yu Yunting had spoken. He scrolled through the guest entry and exit records on his tablet. "Mr. Ding arrived around three o'clock. Are you looking for him?"

Sure enough it was him!

Jane clenched her fists in anger.

"Did he come with a woman wearing a pink dress?"

The manager was unsure whether he should answer the question. He looked at Yu Yunting tentatively and found that Yu Yunting's face did not show much expression.

"...Yes, he came with a lady wearing a pink dress."

Just as I thought... Zhu Yan has attracted another scumbag!

"You can leave now."

The manager nodded and quickly left the room. Before turning to close the door, he couldn't help but glance at the couple inside.

Are these two people really a couple?

Jane breathed a sigh of relief when her suspicions were confirmed.

Fortunately, Zhu Yan hasn't gotten too deeply involved yet.

"Thank you for today." She looked at Yu Yunting, her face showing shallow dimples.

"Continue to be a good Mrs. Yu tonight," Yu Yunting said calmly, turning his head to the side.

"What do you mean?"

"Let's go home for dinner, Minghua Villa."

Jane Ailing naturally understood that he meant going back to the Yu family's large manor-like house to have dinner with his family elders.

"What... do I have to go too?" She knew that Yu Yunting would go back occasionally, but he usually wouldn't take her with him.

"Grandma wants to see you; she's mentioned it several times."

The rest of the Yu family shared similar views with Yu Yunting, considering her a scheming woman who couldn't be brought to the table. Therefore, she didn't like going back.

But Yu Yunting's grandmother was different; she was the only member of the Yu family who genuinely liked and accepted her.

Jane Ailing didn't know why she was so attractive to her; perhaps it was just fate between people.

"Wait for me in the parking lot," Yu Yunting said, then turned and pushed open the door.

"Oh..." Jane looked at his back and responded softly.

As she walked with the waiter to the parking lot, Jian Ailing sent Zhu Yan a message detailing everything that had just happened.

She wandered around the parking lot and quickly found Yu Yunting's car.

Jane asked the waiter to call a designated driver for her, and drove her car back. There she saw Yu Yunting get out of the car.

Once in the car, she quickly fastened her seatbelt and sat obediently to the side.

If I hadn't come to this club today and happened to run into him, I probably wouldn't have had to go back to Minghua Villa tonight.

However, meeting him was a good thing. Otherwise, Jian Ailing might still not have been able to find out the true nature of that scumbag.

However... thinking back on what had happened in the past few days, her feelings couldn't help but become complicated.

So it seems that the Taoist priest was right about Zhu Yan's marriage; that man was indeed not a good match.

Now, only hers remains...

Jane Ailing subconsciously turned her gaze to the man beside her. He was sitting on the other side, intently looking at his open laptop, seemingly checking emails.

His sculpted facial features made his high brow bone and nose bridge stand out, and the evening light shone through the window, falling on his profile and adding a touch of warmth to his cold face.

"Is something the matter?" Perhaps noticing her gaze, Yu Yunting turned to look at her.

"Uh...no, I just wanted to thank you." Jian Ailing snapped back to reality, immediately looked away, and stammered her reply.

"By the way, those flowers in my studio... were they a gift from you?"

Do you like it?

Although Yu Yunting did not answer the question directly, his statement... can be considered an admission?

"You really sent me flowers?" Jane Ailing's eyes widened in surprise. "Are you... alright?"

What does this mean?

"Our agreement from last time... still stands, right?"

His eyes flickered slightly, then returned to calm in an instant, his voice seemingly flat, "Xu Cheng's fiancée works near your studio; he wrote down the wrong address."

"Why is the recipient listed as Ms. Jian?"

His fiancée shares your last name.

"Oh...that's quite a coincidence." Jane Ailing shrugged.

The studio is located in an industrial park, which also houses many other small companies, so getting the address wrong is a common occurrence.

It turned out to be a misunderstanding; no one sent her flowers.

Jane Ai-ling felt a great weight lifted off her shoulders.

The Bentley slowly pulled over to the side of the road, and Jane realized that they had arrived.
