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

Jiang Wan had just reached the door when she received a WeChat message from Lu Jingshi.

"Shall we go see Summer tonight?"

She squeezed her phone hard, thought for five seconds, and then replied to him.

"No, I'm busy. Gu Yang will be back tonight."

Less than half a minute after the message was sent, Lu Jingshi called.

She hung up the phone casually and strode out.

Gu Yang did indeed return today and had arranged to meet her earlier.

Jiang Wan had been grateful for Gu Yang's help during those two weeks in Anzhou, and she had promised to treat him to dinner tonight. It was still early, so she could go see Summer first.

At 8 PM, in front of a high-end hotel.

As soon as Gu Yang got out of the car, he saw Jiang Wan waiting at the door.

"Wanwan."

He walked over with a smile and, as usual, gave Jiang Wan a big hug.

"You've struck it rich? This place isn't cheap."

Jiang Wan laughed: "Order whatever you want. If we don't have enough money in the end, we can just use your Gu family's name. Would they dare to detain anyone then?"

Gu Yang was taken aback, and the smile on his lips unconsciously deepened.

After returning to China, Wanwan seemed to become much more lively and was no longer as sentimental as before.

Jiang Wan had reserved the seats in advance; they were by the window with a view of Haicheng's nightscape.

Gu Yang casually ordered a few dishes and then closed the menu. Jiang Wan thought for a moment and added a bottle of red wine.

"Wanwan, you can't drink alcohol."

"Drink a little less, it'll be fine."

Gu Yang wanted to persuade her further, but seeing her resolute attitude, he had no choice but to let her go.

Anyway, I'll be by her side, so even if she gets drunk and isn't feeling well, I can take care of her.

"Oh, right, I bought Summer some of her favorite canned food, it's in the car."

Jiang Wan's eyes darkened at the mention of Summer.

She just went to the vet today. Although Summer is out of danger, she is still very weak.

I can't eat anything lately and can only rely on various nutritional injections.

Gu Yang keenly noticed the change in her expression, and his heart tightened: "Wanwan, what's wrong with Summer?"

Jiang Wan omitted the part about Lu Jingshi, only mentioning that Summer bumped into someone and was almost beaten to death.

Gu Yang was terrified after hearing this.

"Don't worry too much. Summer is always very hardy. Since the doctor said it's fine, it'll be lively and energetic again in a while. Send me the address, and I'll go see it tomorrow."

Jiang Wan sent him the address, put down her phone, and just then the food and wine were served.

The two ate and talked.

Gu Yang knew that Jiang Wan was unhappy about the trip to Anzhou, so he tried to avoid the topic and only picked some lighthearted topics to amuse her.

The little boy at the next table couldn't stay still; he kept running back and forth between the tables.

"Sister, you're so beautiful."

Jiang Wan thanked him shyly and took a flower from the vase on the table and handed it to him.

But the little boy didn't take it; instead, he reached out to hug the vase.

"I want this, I want to play this."

As he flailed his arms, he bumped into the decanter on the table, spilling most of the bottle of red wine all over Jiang Wan.

Jiang Wan couldn't dodge in time and could only watch helplessly as the red wine quickly spread across her white sundress.

Large pink water stains appeared all over her chest and the hem of her skirt.

Realizing he had caused trouble, the little boy shrank back to his seat.

The couple at the next table merely glanced at Jiang Wan before continuing to eat as if nothing had happened.

Gu Yang wanted to go up and argue with them, but Jiang Wan stopped him.

"Never mind, I'll go to the restroom to take care of it first."

The commotion attracted the attention of other tables in the restaurant.

In the corner against the wall, a girl with smoky makeup and an afro was craning her neck to look around.

"Qian Xianxian, what are you doing?"

Someone pulled her aside, saying, "I said I wanted another bottle of red wine, don't try to go back on your word."

Qian Xianxian looked away, only managing to catch a glimpse of a slender white figure heading towards the restroom.

"Who's cheating? I think I see someone I know. Besides, it's just a bottle of wine, order whatever you like, it's on me tonight."

The people at the table let out a gasp.

"Qian Xianxian, didn't you have your dad send you away for an internship? You were so poor just a while ago that you weren't participating in any activities. How come you suddenly have money? Did your dad give you money again?"

"Bullshit! I earned all of this myself."

Qian Xianxian denied it loudly, looking guilty, and rolled her eyes at them before continuing, "Do you know where I work right now?"

"Where are you? Why are you so proud?"

"You know the Lu family of Haicheng, right? You know Lu Jingshi, the sole heir of the Lu family, right?"

A girl sitting next to me screamed, covered her mouth, and stared at me with infatuation in her eyes.

"Of course I know! My brother is a big shot in the legal world of Haicheng, a professional, a great guy, and incredibly handsome! He's amazing!"

Qian Xianxian looked up proudly.

"I'm currently working at Brother Lu's law firm as his personal secretary, his personal secretary, you know."

"Holy crap! How many surprises does my brother have that I don't know about? He's so generous, paying you such a high salary. No wonder you suddenly have money."

"Yes, Qian Xianxian, you're treating us to karaoke later."

A man with a buzz cut approached Qian Xianxian and lowered his voice: "We guys got some good stuff today."

Qian Xianxian's face darkened, and she was about to refuse when she caught sight of Jiang Wan coming out of the restroom.

Sure enough it was her!

Then... who is that man next to you?

Red wine is very easy to soak into fabric, and even though Jiang Wan wiped it off in time, the stain was still very difficult to remove.

Jiang Wan sighed and returned to her seat, but Gu Yang was nowhere to be seen.

Just as she was about to call him, she saw Gu Yang walking over carrying a shopping bag from a luxury brand.

"Wanwan, I just bought this downstairs randomly, you can put it on first."

"I booked a room upstairs. Go take a shower and change your wet clothes."

Jiang Wan was feeling a sticky, uncomfortable sensation on her chest when she heard this, and she thought Gu Yang was really too thoughtful.

"Okay, I'll transfer the money for this dress to you in a bit."

Gu Yang smiled, didn't reply, took off his coat and draped it over her shoulders, put his arm around her shoulder, and led her out.

Qian Xianxian, who was not far away, immediately jumped up.

"You guys eat first, I'll go out for a bit."

As she left the restaurant, she saw Jiang Wan and a man enter the elevator, which continued to ascend until it finally stopped on the 24th floor.

Qian Xianxian casually grabbed a cleaning worker.

"Excuse me, could you tell me what the 24th floor is?"

"This is our Executive Rooms department."

Qian Xianxian's eyes widened suddenly!

Jiang Wan... booked a hotel room with another man!

In her shock, a plan quickly formed in her mind.

He took out his phone and called Lu Jingshi, but the other party hung up twice.

Furious, she sent a WeChat message: "I saw Jiang Wan."

Lu Jingshi called back immediately, and Qian Xianxian stomped her foot angrily.

"Where?"

"The Park Hyatt Hotel is on the 24th floor. If you're late, it'll be too late."

After hanging up the phone, she couldn't help but curl the corners of her mouth into a smile.

My chances of winning have increased even more; Brother Lu is definitely mine!
