Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“What do you want me to do?” Jiang Yuan asked Jiang Yan.
“Ask her out. i want to talk to her alone,” said Jiang Yan.
“Alright. Can you not hurt her?” Jiang Yuan agreed.
Jiang Yan’s laughter came from the other end of the phone. “I’m not crazy. How 1 want to deal with Pei Xin depends on what kind of person she is. You know that I have my own principles when it comes to handling matters. I’ve never hurt the women around Li Ze.”
Jiang Yuan nodded and felt slightly relieved.
Her cousin was someone with principles.
According to their plan, Jiang Yan would arrange for people to hinder Li Ze’s project, so he would have to stay out of town for two days.
Following that, Pei Xin arranged for Jiang Yuan to have lunch together tomorrow afternoon.
This time, Jiang Yuan said that she would treat her to a meal, so they didn’t eat in the company cafeteria.
Pei Xin did not refuse.
However, when Pei Xin followed Jiang Yuan to the private room of the restaurant, there was already another woman sitting there.
This girl had waist-length hair and was dressed in designer clothes. She had an elegant temperament.
“And she is?” Pei Xin looked at Jiang Yuan in confusion and asked.
“I’m sorry, Pei Xin,” Jiang Yuan explained guiltily. “She’s my cousin and Li Ze’s fiance. My cousin wanted to have a meal with you.”
The light in Pei Xin’s eyes dissipated, and the corners of her mouth twitched in a self-deprecating manner.
“So, you deliberately approached me in the staff canteen just to get closer to me and ask me out smoothly, right?”
When met with Pei Xin’s sincere eyes, Jiang Yuan looked away guiltily.
“I’m sorry, Pei Xin,” she said softly. “1 had some misunderstandings about you before, but after interacting with you for the past two days, I realized that you were different from what they said. You deserve a happy life and a man who truly loves you, but Li Ze and my cousin are going to get married. He’s already taken.”
“It’s not her fault,” Jiang Yan said gently. “She was just helping me.”
Jiang Yan smiled at Pei Xin. “Sit down. Let’s talk while eating. You have to believe that I mean you no harm.”
Pei Xin nodded and finally sat down.
No matter what Jiang Yan’s purpose for meeting her was, she couldn’t resist.
Jiang Yan was Li Ze’s fiance, and her relationship with Li Ze wasn’t circulated around.
Such a beautiful and dazzling woman was Li Ze’s fiance. At this moment, Pei Xin felt that Li Ze would never be satisfied.
If she were Li Ze, she would never go around looking for lovers with Jiang Yan around.
Pei Xin didn’t order anything, and everything was decided by Jiang Yan.
“I asked Jiang Yuan to ask you out because 1 want to tell you the truth. No matter how deep Li Ze’s feelings for you are, he will never marry you,” Jiang Yan said after ordering everything.
“I also know that you’re a good person based of Jiang Yuan’s description. You don’t want to be a lover or a mistress, right? If you have any difficulties, you can tell me. If Li Ze can do it, I can do it too.”
Pei Xin pinched the corner of her clothes. She always did this subconsciously when she was nervous.
Jiang Yan didn’t rush her either. Instead, she waited patiently.
“How much do you know about me?” Pei Xin looked up at Jiang Yan after a long while.
“Everything.” Jiang Yan also looked at her seriously.
Jiang Yan continued, “I know why you went to prison five years ago. I also know why you escaped from Beijing to Haicheng. You are hiding Lu Li. You are afraid that he will take revenge on you. You are afraid that you would implicate your son.
“I also heard about Li Ze’s actions when he pursued you back then. To be honest, if you were still the Pei family’s daughter, then Li Ze would have had the chance to marry you.
“But with your current status, you won’t be accepted into the Li family at all. Even if Li Ze wants to marry you, the elders in his family won’t agree, and the shareholders of the company won’t approve of you.
“Li Ze will lose the support of his parents because of you. The project with the Jiang family will also be terminated.
“He kept you by his side because he wanted you to be a canary imprisoned by him. Do you think he’s helping you fulfill your dream by letting you work now? He’s just using another method to keep you here.
“If you don’t believe me, you can ask him for a hand in marriage. He won’t be able to say yes, I’m certain of it.”
Jiang Yan said these words from the bottom of her heart..
