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

Jiang Wan hurriedly entered the airport terminal, dragging her luggage.

Lu Jingshi's itinerary was packed with details, and just making up the travel plans on the spot took until the wee hours of the morning.

She only managed to sleep for two hours after packing her luggage, but thankfully Wang Yiran called her in the morning so she didn't oversleep.

Wang Yiran was also surprised to hear that she was going on a business trip with Lu Jingshi.

"Jiang Wan, you... take good care of yourself. I always feel that Lu Jingshi... still has feelings for you."

Jiang Wan felt a pang of sadness, unable to express her bitterness.

I wonder if Wang Yiran would still say those words if she heard Lu Jingshi mocking her for being delusional.

Now that things have come to this, she will never again be delusional about love.

Jiang Wan checked her phone; it was almost time, but Lu Jingshi was still nowhere to be seen.

She had no choice but to change her boarding pass herself and check her luggage.

As soon as she finished changing, she saw Lu Jingshi and Fang Tian walking towards her from not far away.

They were still wearing matching outfits in the same color.

Upon seeing Jiang Wan, Fang Tian handed over her identification documents: "Ms. Jiang, could you please exchange them for a boarding pass?"

Jiang Wan glanced at Lu Jingshi, but he didn't react at all; he was looking down at replying to messages.

"Okay, please give me Director Fang's identification documents as well."

A shadow crossed Fang Tian's face: "Ah Shi wants you to go with him to this environmental public interest litigation seminar. Isn't your thesis focused on environmental public interest litigation?"

Jiang Wan raised an eyebrow, realizing it was because her major was a good fit.

She didn't say anything more, took her documents to get Lu Jingshi's boarding pass, and checked her luggage.

After she finished everything and walked back, she saw Fang Tian looking at Lu Jingshi with red eyes from afar.

Lu Jingshi patted her shoulder, his face showing a tenderness and...gratitude that Jiang Wan had never seen before.

The surrounding people's gazes fell on the two of them.

If you didn't know better, you'd think they were filming some kind of melodramatic soap opera about life and death.

"Fang Tian, ​​thank you for your hard work these past few days. Please let me know if anything happens at the institute."

Fang Tian leaned against Lu Jingshi and wrapped her arms around his waist.

"Ah Shi, I always took care of you when you went on business trips before, but I'm really worried about you this time."

Lu Jingshi froze, and in his panic, he suddenly saw Jiang Wan standing not far away, too afraid to come over.

"Hurry up and go through security! You'll have to pay for your ticket if you miss your flight."

He used the force of the push to shove Fang Tian aside and walked towards Jiang Wan.

Fang Tian followed, taking a note out of her bag.

"This is my to-do list: take good care of Ah-Shi, remind him to take his medicine, don't overwork him, and..."

Jiang Wan didn't answer, but spoke directly.

"Director Lu, Director Fang, my major is relevant, so... how about I go to this event myself?"

Lu Jingshi instantly realized: "You mean... you think I'm a burden."

Jiang Wan did not answer, but the answer was self-evident.

"You don't need her, you can go back."

Lu Jingshi strode toward the security checkpoint, and Jiang Wan quickly followed.

After walking for a long time, I looked back and saw that Fang Tian was still there.

She felt a pang of sadness; Fang Tian must be madly in love with Lu Jingshi.

Over the years, she has meticulously and gradually infiltrated Lu Jingshi's life.

Lu Jingshi's seat was easy to find. Jiang Wan watched him sit down completely before she prepared to walk to the back.

Lu Jingshi grabbed her wrist: "What are you doing? Sit down!"

Jiang Wan smiled wryly and pointed to her boarding pass: "Director Lu, I'm in economy class. If you need anything on the plane, just call the flight attendant. See you after we get off."

Lu Jingshi silently released her.

Fang Tian booked the plane tickets. He had no recollection of the rule that leaders of Kairong flew first class while employees flew economy class.

Fang Tian used to accompany me on business trips, and she stayed with me the whole time.

Jiang Wan found her seat in economy class and sat down comfortably.

Fortunately, the flight was short. Jiang Wan fell asleep as soon as it took off and slept until a kind passenger next to her woke her up.

Outside the airport, a private car was waiting early.

Once in the car, Jiang Wan gently rubbed her stiff and sore knees.

Lu Jingshi glanced sideways and cleared his throat: "I was going to upgrade you to a cabin class, but there are no seats available."

Jiang Wan didn't look up, but gave a soft "hmm".

Upon checking into the hotel, Jiang Wan had already prepared for Lu Jingshi to stay in a deluxe suite while she would stay in a regular single room.

But when she heard the actual arrangements, she was speechless with anger at Fang Tian.

"Ms. Jiang, I'm sorry, the hotel shown in your order is located one kilometer away."

Lu Jingshi frowned and pulled out a card: "Are there any identical empty rooms left?"

"Please wait a moment, I'll check."

"No need." Jiang Wan took back the card and stuffed it back into Lu Jingshi's hand. "Director Fang's arrangement is very reasonable. Director Lu, I won't see you upstairs. I think Director Fang has already made arrangements for dinner. I'll wait for you in the lobby tomorrow morning."

Without waiting for Lu Jingshi's reply, Jiang Wan pushed her luggage and turned to leave.

Although her tone was calm and her expression was normal.

But Lu Jingshi felt irritated, his eyes filled with displeasure.

Half an hour later, Fang Tian called.

"Ah Shi, why did you cancel all the remaining hotel and flight bookings?"

Lu Jingshi's voice carried a cold indifference, sounding devoid of any emotion.

"Fang Tian, ​​you've taken it upon yourself to make this decision."

On the other end of the phone, Fang Tian was silent for a moment before continuing, "Ashi, I'm doing this for your own good. Ever since you reunited with Jiang Wan, you've become increasingly out of control, and I don't want you to get hurt again."

"I know my own business. Your job is to assist me in my work, not to manage my life."

"I know what I'm doing, Fang Tian. Put away those little thoughts and don't cross the line."

Lu Jingshi was not unaware of her little scheme.

Wearing clothes in the same color scheme, using the same household items in different colors, and deliberately showing intimacy in front of outsiders.

He knew all of this, but he didn't care.

Over the past five years, she has indeed made a lot of sacrifices, treating herself with utmost kindness and consideration, and he was willing to give her even trivial matters of face.

He didn't even question how his mother knew Jiang Wan's new number, thinking he had made himself clear enough last time.

Unexpectedly, she went even further this time.

Unwilling to listen to anything she had to say, Lu Jingshi hung up the phone and called the front desk.

Jiang Wan had just finished showering and was sprawled on the bed, chatting and venting with Wang Yiran.

The phone on the bedside table suddenly rang.

"Ms. Jiang, your upgraded room has been prepared, and someone will be sent to help you move your luggage in a little while."

"Upgrade room? I didn't apply for that."

"Your boyfriend applied for it for you; you need to come to the front desk to confirm."

Jiang Wan was completely confused. Boyfriend?

Her gaze shifted to the chat page on her phone. Wang Yiran had indeed drunk too much and kept hugging her and calling her "wife."

This old Wang...

She picked up her phone to reply.

"What kind of surprise is this? I just made a couple of complaints, and you upgraded my room? You might as well save your money and redeem me."

News about Wang Yiran quickly surfaced.

"?"

"I do want to upgrade your room and I'm consulting with customer service, but... I still have a reservation."

A screenshot was sent to me; Wang Yiran was chatting with hotel customer service two minutes earlier.

Jiang Wan suddenly realized what was happening and, without even changing her clothes, went downstairs in her pajamas and slippers.

In the lobby on the first floor, Lu Jingshi stood with his hands in his pockets, lazily watching the elevator.

Seeing her come out, he gave her an impatient glare.

"What a waste of time!"
