Five years after their breakup, a prominent lawyer is desperately seeking reconciliation.

When Jiang Wan was in school, she was insecure and sensitive because of her family background, and always kept to herself and others.

I hardly know any of the teachers or senior students in the college.

Only a few classmates from the same year, who had taken classes together, could be considered acquaintances.

"Jiang Wan, you've changed so much! Let's add each other on WeChat."

A man of medium build in a gray suit openly sized up Jiang Wan, his eyes filled with intense amazement.

Jiang Wan took out her phone from her handbag: "Okay, I'll scan your code."

Another female classmate nudged her shoulder: "By the way, you came with Lu Jingshi? You two... made up?"

The story of the school heartthrob falling in love with Cinderella was known to everyone at the school.

With Lu Jingshi's looks and family background, he ended up dating the least noticeable ugly duckling in the class.

This caused countless girls in the school to be heartbroken.

But less than two years after graduation, I vaguely heard that they had broken up and Jiang Wan had gone abroad.

"Oh, I'm a business partner with Lao Wang, and I'm temporarily working for Director Lu. That's all."

The female classmate nodded thoughtfully, then, finding an opening, she walked towards Lu Jingshi with her wine glass in hand.

Wang Yiran pulled her aside and pouted.

"I called you and asked you to keep me company, but you ignored me. Turns out you have someone else. You value your girlfriend over your friends."

"I only found out I was coming here at the last minute."

Jiang Wan glanced at her sexy dress with a self-deprecating smile: "Old Wang, don't you really realize what Lu Jingshi takes me for?"

Wang Yiran didn't understand: "What?"

"In half an hour, I've added five vice deans and three directors. They all talk about my figure and appearance. Not one of them asked me how many cases I've handled or how my business is going."

"You mean... he treats you like... I'm sorry, Jiang Wan, let's go."

Wang Yiran's eyes stung with tears, and she put her arm around Jiang Wan's shoulder, trying to lead her out.

Jiang Wan stopped her and took her arm off.

"I know you feel sorry for me, but right now there are so many people in the institute who believe in us, not just you and me. Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."

Lu Jingshi was surrounded by people and didn't pay attention to the situation here.

Wang Yiran shielded Jiang Wan from drinking for most of the night, and finally her eyes became unfocused.

The sweet wine in Jiang Wan's hand had been replaced with red wine at some point.

She was already in poor health and had a low alcohol tolerance; after a few rounds, she was already unsteady on her feet.

I finally found a moment to rest, but someone grabbed my wrist.

Lu Jingshi's face turned ashen as he pulled the person into a corner.

His gaze fell on the large expanse of white skin on her chest, his eyes darkened, and he took off his suit jacket.

"Put them on."

Jiang Wan refused, saying, "No."

"Who told you to pick such a revealing dress?"

"How can we get those people's contact information without exposing ourselves? How can the branch office even pass the test?"

She leaned forward, a hint of allure flashing in her innocent almond-shaped eyes. "Isn't this exactly why Director Lu brought me here?"

No wonder she was so generous, giving her such a nice massage chair without hesitation, and even hiring a styling team to dress her up.

In such an occasion, he would definitely not want Fang Tian to come, right?

"Don't worry, I know my role, and I'll definitely help Director Lu make this reception a success!"

Lu Jingshi's jaw was clenched tightly. He had built this up through his connections, and he just wanted to make the branch office director look good.

In the end, she even misunderstood that she had done it on purpose.

He deliberately sent her out to seduce men.

She really overestimated herself and underestimated her!

The lights in the venue dimmed, and the soft background music was replaced with beautiful dance music.

Someone walked across half the venue to find Jiang Wan.

"Miss Jiang, would you do me the honor of dancing with me?"

"Of course, but I'm not very good at it. Section Chief Zhang will have to teach me slowly."

When the man saw that Jiang Wan had actually remembered him, he was so excited that he immediately raised his head.

"Don't worry, Miss Jiang, leave it to me."

Jiang Wan placed her hand in his palm, and the unfamiliar touch made her want to pull it back instantly.

Despite Lu Jingshi's gaze, Jiang Wan still slid into the dance floor with her back straight.

Jiang Wan's steps were unsteady, and after only a few jumps, she felt all her strength drained away.

Jiang Wan's male dance partner sensed her exhaustion and suddenly reached out to hug her waist, pulling her towards him.

"If you're tired, lean down for a while."

Jiang Wan was startled and was about to push him away when she spun around and fell into a familiar embrace.

"Isn't it impolite of Director Lu to steal someone's dance partner?"

"You really want to dance with him? Can't you see he's trying to take advantage of you?"

Lu Jingshi's arm was tightly wrapped around her waist, making it much easier for Jiang Wan.

"Director Lu, how many cases does the branch office need to meet the standards for opening up?"

"You're still thinking of running away?"

The chicken talks with the duck.

Jiang Wan suddenly felt extremely listless, pushed him away, and found Wang Yiran, who was quietly dozing off in the corner.

"Old Wang, mission accomplished, let's go home."

Last week, Xiao Du secretly told her that Lao Wang had drunk himself to the point of stomach bleeding in order to secure a big order from a client.

But fearing that I would worry if I found out, they gave the entire institute a gag order, forbidding anyone from telling me.

So she's been worried all day about Wang Yiran not letting her work herself to the bone.

At this moment, her state can be described as three parts drunk and seven parts acting.

Upon hearing Jiang Wan say she was going home, Wang Yiran immediately clapped her hands and stood up.

The two helped each other out of the hotel, and Old Yang stepped on the gas and pulled up beside them.

"Miss Jiang, the boss asked me to take you home first."

Jiang Wan didn't stand on ceremony; why not take advantage of a free ride? He dropped Wang Yiran off downstairs and watched her go upstairs.

Old Yang then drove Jiang Wan back to pick up Lu Jingshi.

A gentle breeze caressed her face, and Jiang Wan, already feeling dizzy, closed her eyes, leaned back in the seat, and slowly drifted off to sleep.

When I regained consciousness, I felt like I was being carried in someone's arms like a princess.

Her whole body swayed gently with the man's footsteps.

Jiang Wan forced her eyelids open and glanced at him, only able to see Lu Jingshi's sharply defined nose and the black coat covering his chest.

"Where...am I?"

"We're in the residential area now. Don't move around. I'll take you upstairs."

Jiang Wan struggled to get down: "Put me down, Director Fang... will be unhappy if he sees this."

Lu Jingshi paused, her long legs stiffening. She... thought Fang Tian lived with her?

A faint smile slowly rose to the corners of his mouth; he had no intention of explaining.
