Tang Yanqi looked out the car window. She knew she should push the door open and get out. From the day she married Sheng Jianan, Tang Yanqi was ready to accept whatever ca her way. She had nothing, but she still had a bit of dignity. Soone once said that the dirtiest thing in the world is self-esteem, but even if it’s dirty, she needs it to accompany her throughout her life.
Tang Yanqi carefully managed her heart, facing Sheng Jianan’s dislike by turning a deaf ear, a blind eye, and ignoring it, all for the sake of her pitiful dignity.
But dignity is dignity, and dignity doesn’t an acting tough. Clearly, now is not the ti to act tough. Looking at the pitch-black night outside the window, Tang Yanqi swallowed and turned to Sheng Jianan: "Can you drop off sowhere with buses?"
"I don’t want to repeat myself."
Sheng Jianan looked indifferently ahead. Tang Yanqi wanted to say sothing else, but he swept an icy gaze over, and in his beautiful, deep eyes, Tang Yanqi seed to understand sothing. She gritted her teeth, opened the door, and got out of the car.
As the car door closed, the car sped away without a mont’s hesitation.
Tang Yanqi stood alone, looking at the receding tail lights of the car, her heart stung with a sharp pain.
She knew Sheng Jianan disliked her; she knew it clearly, but she didn’t expect Sheng Jianan to dislike her so much.
She looked up at the moonlight in the sky, bright and beautiful, yet cold as frost.
Stumbling in the dark, Tang Yanqi frowned. Today, she wore high heels, with thin heels, which she was not accustod to. After just a few steps, her feet felt sore. The road was full of small stones, and there were no street lamps. Who knew what she might step on? She couldn’t really take off her shoes and walk barefoot.
Tang Yanqi sighed again. Is there a more unfortunate young madam than her? Is there? Is there?
Probably not!
Taking out her phone, Tang Yanqi hesitated for a mont before calling Tang Ruhai. She couldn’t ask Qi Cheng and the others for help. Qi Cheng and the others were true commoners, and this was definitely not a place they would co to or could co to. If she asked them for help, the imdiate problem would be solved, but Tang Yanqi was sure she would bring herself more trouble.

On the other side, Sheng Jianan sped all the way to the Royal Entertainnt Club, the most luxurious and top-tier entertainnt club in B City.
Familiar with the path, he reached the exclusive private room of their group. Sheng Jianan pushed the door open, and inside sat two n, both equally outstanding in temperant.
Zhou Chengze was the first to greet him: "Brother Nan, you’re late; drink up as punishnt."
Sheng Jianan casually unbuttoned his coat and tossed it on the sofa, completely ignoring Zhou Chengze. Instead, he picked up a glass of wine and raised it to a quiet, handso man sitting beside him: "Decided to co back?"
Mu Yunfan curled his lips and clinked glasses with Sheng Jianan: "Back now. If I didn’t co back, the old man would have gone crazy."
They each took a symbolic sip before Mu Yunfan spoke again: "I heard you got married, congratulations."
Zhou Chengze and Sheng Jianan were childhood friends, while Mu Yunfan and Sheng Jianan only t while studying abroad. The two got along like old friends and shared a strong bond.
Mu Yunfan’s parents were both university professors, with his father renowned internationally as an economist, and his mother also involved in finance. Yet, when it ca to Mu Yunfan, he had a genetic mutation, resolutely studying dicine despite his parents’ opposition.
