They surrounded me right after the breakup.

The Times Light residential complex features large, single-level apartments.

Xia Yutong leaned against the bed in the bedroom, not having had time to change out of her mature uniform suit.

She had been holding her phone in the same position for half an hour.

The commotion in the group chat finally subsided after Qiu Siyao and Lin Yaoyao started having private chats.

Judging from Lin Yaoyao's tone of voice, Xia Yutong believed that her relationship with Jiang Han might not be fake.

If it were just an act for Shen Qingning's benefit, it would be impossible to portray someone as extremely angry.

She changed her address to Qiu Siyao as "younger sister," and the two seemed to have reached some kind of secret agreement regarding Jianghan.

They really did move into Jiang Han's home together, living harmoniously and sharing one husband!

With the addition of the persistent entanglement with Shen Qingning, a love quadrangle involving three men and one woman is beginning to take shape.

As for Xiao Xiao, Xia Yutong dared not think about her anymore…

She was the woman who understood Jiang Han's excellence best.

Others only see the surface, but he himself is deeply rooted in Xingyue Media.

Under Jiang Han's leadership, the company smoothly navigated the transition period, focusing on both film and music.

Mao Buyi began to shine, the TV series "Fairy Tale" achieved high ratings, and the morale of all employees was renewed.

Men like this are naturally attractive to women.

While eating in the cafeteria, Xia Yutong repeatedly heard young girls expressing their affections.

They readily spout lewd and insinuating things like, "As long as Chairman Jiang is willing, I'll immediately offer myself," and "I expect Chairman Jiang to use my position for sexual favors."

More and more people are seeing the shining qualities in Jiang Han, qualities that money alone cannot buy.

Just as Xia Yutong was lost in thought, her phone rang.

Qiu Siyao sent a plea for help, just to try her luck.

"Yutong, are you busy? Did you see the message in the group chat? I want to ask you to come to my house and check on things, please!"

Xia Yutong was taken aback for a moment: "Now?"

"Yes, Yaoyao and I are busy and can't get away. Jiang Han hasn't replied to our messages, and we're very worried!"

Qiu Siyao replied quickly: "Sister Liu Meng doesn't want to go, so we can only rely on you!"

"Am I... suitable?" Xia Yutong asked back.

"There's no one more suitable than you! You know everyone, and you work at Jianghan Company, so you're familiar with both sides."

"What could I possibly do there?"

Qiu Siyao thought about her words: "Let's talk about work with Jiang Han, and discuss things at the company."

"Also, keep an eye on Xiao Xiao; don't let Shen Qingning lead her astray!"

Xia Yutong understood; the other party's euphemism was actually a concern that Xiao Xiao might also end up in bed with her.

Without hesitation, she solemnly typed on the screen with both hands: "Okay, I'll go!"

……

Yunqi Mountain Villa.

Xiao Xiao was so angry her mouth twisted into a crook.

Shen Qingning described her as an affair partner in a few words in the group chat.

Not only did she know the itinerary and proactively provide logistical support, but she even went so far as to have thoughts of having an affair herself.

Xiao Xiao couldn't help but think of Shen Qingning's struggling image, and her scalp tingled.

She shuddered and fixed her gaze on the source of the conflict.

"Shen Qingning, what do you mean? Why are you dragging me into this?"

"I'd drag you down with me? Hah, you're already underwater, aren't you!"

Xiao Xiao didn't understand: "Nonsense! Nothing shameful has happened between Jiang Han and me!"

Shen Qingning sat upright on the sofa.

"Do you even believe it yourself? Although I don't like Lin Yaoyao, there's one thing she said that's true."

"Does the hotel's opening really warrant specifically requesting Mao Buyi to sing? That's just an excuse."

Xiao Xiao was embarrassed when she was exposed to her face.

"I like listening to his songs, is it wrong to use work to invite someone I like to meet?"

Shen Qingning laughed: "Alright, alright, I won't argue with you. Whatever you say goes!"

She spoke casually, her expression calm and composed.

But the more this happened, the angrier Xiao Xiao became.

Especially the last line, "Whatever you say goes," was a classic "green tea" girlfriend line that made her feel suffocated.

Xiao Xiao slammed her hand on the sofa: "Fine, fine! I originally just wanted to join in the fun, be a bystander and a fanboy."

"But you all insist that I have a problem!"

"Jiang Han, I've changed my mind! I don't want Mao Buyi anymore, I want to invite you to sing at the opening ceremony!"

Jiang Han's phone was charging in the bedroom, so he didn't receive calls from Qiu Siyao and Lin Yaoyao.

He was unaware of the feud within his girlfriends' group chat, but he could deduce something from their conversation.

Xiao Xiao must have spread the word about Shen Qingning's visit, which angered her two girlfriends.

The anger also affected Xiao Xiao, who was watching the battle.

Jiang Han picked up the freshly brewed Biluochun tea from the coffee table and took two sips.

No matter how much the women argued, I remained as steady as Mount Tai, unmoved.

Anyway, the "scumbag" image is firmly established, so it will never collapse.

He neither takes the initiative nor refuses, and while he can't give her a formal title, he's very responsible.

Jiang Han put down his teacup and accepted Xiao Xiao's invitation.

"I'm the company owner, so I don't usually participate in commercial performances."

"I'll pay more!"

"I am not talented and I am not short of money."

Jiang Han shook his head and grinned roguishly, his mischievous and playful demeanor captivating Shen Qingning.

When they were together before, she thought he was dull and boring.

In contrast, how humorous and witty it is now!

Xiao Xiao was getting anxious. Why was everyone deliberately going against her today?

"You name your terms!"

She realized that she couldn't persuade Jiang Han with money alone, so she simply let him speak for himself.

Jiang Han paused, pretending to think.

After a moment, he spoke again.

"If your family has any business needs in the future, please cooperate with Xingyue Media as much as possible."

Xiao Xiao was stunned; such a verbal promise was not a valid condition at all.

She was very clear about Xingyue Media's capabilities in the industry, and from a business perspective alone, they were not at a disadvantage.

"No problem, I promise you."

"And..." Jiang Han continued, "you and I will sing a duet together on stage."

"Me? Singing with you at the opening event of my own hotel?"

That's it? What kind of conditions are these?

Xiao Xiao couldn't believe her ears.

Her little brain raced after receiving the information, anticipating more than a dozen possibilities.

Three minutes later, Xiao Xiao blurted out her conclusion.

"You want to seduce me?"

"Cough cough! Cough cough!"

Jiang Han almost choked after hearing this.

The girl's blunt remarks were completely unconventional.

It made him feel ashamed that his bad intentions had been seen through at a glance.

"The main point was the first condition for long-term cooperation; I was just joking about the rest."

Jiang Han tried to justify himself.

Xiao Xiao's expression was unpredictable, displaying several different reactions in a short period of time.

There was shock, disappointment, and a sly smile brimming with malice.

She was surprised that she had spoken her true feelings to his face.

She actually asked her best friend directly if her boyfriend was trying to seduce her, but luckily Jiang Han deliberately avoided the topic.

However, he neither confirmed nor denied it.

As for the smile that lingered on Xiao Xiao's face at the end, it was because she had thought of a way to intensify the excitement.

Since my best friends all say I have a problem, I'll put on a show for them.

"I promise to sing with you, but I want you to write a love song for us!"
