"And then later at the Jiang Family..."
Song Lan frowned and rudely interrupted Bai Zheming's question, " President Bai, the past is never a pleasant memory, so let's not ask about it anymore."
Previously, when Song Lan asked Bai Zheming for the jade pendant, Bai Zheming dodged and didn't give it to her. This time, Song Lan didn't ask any more questions. She simply bent down, reached out, grabbed the jade pendant's cord, and pulled hard.
The jade pendant was pulled back, Song Lan led Jiang Mingxi away.
Jiang Mingxi looked at Song Lan hesitantly and asked him softly, "Are you angry?"
Song Lan lowered her eyes, meeting Jiang Mingxi's puppy-like gaze. She raised her hand and gently ruffled his hair, adhering to the twenty-eighth trick in "One Hundred Steps to Teach You How to Date," and said, "I'm a little jealous."
Jiang Mingxi chuckled, her eyes turning mischievous. "How much is some?"
Jiang Mingxi was beautiful, and when she smiled, especially when she laughed unexpectedly like this, she was radiant, and the sparkle in her eyes struck Song Lan.
His hand, which was rubbing Jiang Mingxi's head, slid down her hair and touched Jiang Mingxi ear, giving it a gentle pinch. In that instant, he suddenly remembered that night in Bridgehead Village.
Jiang Mingxi was attacked by thugs and moved into his house.
Lying on the same bed, Jiang Mingxi looked at him pitifully, saying that she was scared and asked him to coax her. She took his hand and pressed it to her chest.
Song Lan pursed her lips, took Jiang Mingxi's hand, pressed it to her chest, and imitated her, saying, "It hurts here, you need to rub it."
Jiang Mingxi's eyes suddenly widened.
What evil spirit possessed Song Lan?
Meeting Jiang Mingxi's surprised gaze, Song Lan frowned, then mustered her courage and said, "I'm seducing you."
Jiang Mingxi:...
Jiang Mingxi:...
I couldn't help it, "Hahahahahahaha!"
He burst out laughing.
Song Lan was puzzled. When Jiang Mingxi treated him like that before, his heart was pounding so hard it felt like it would explode. Why was Jiang Mingxi smiling like this now?
Was it his tone that was off?
After a moment's hesitation, Song Lan decided to adjust her mindset before continuing. "Stand here and don't move. I'll go get you a towel."
Jiang Mingxi:...
Thank you for not going to get some oranges.
Song Lan went to get a towel, Jiang Mingxi thought of the words that Song Lan had just used to interrupt Bai Zheming.
Bai Zheming probably wanted to ask what happened to the jade pendant after he returned to the Jiang Family.
Song Lan interrupted him.
But in reality, even if Song Lan hadn't interrupted, he wouldn't have been able to answer.
He couldn't remember.
This part wasn't in the original owner's memory. He only remembered that the jade pendant was a very important thing, and that the original owner wanted to use it to find his mother.
A few steps away.
Song Lan picked up a towel from the table and was about to turn around when Bai Zheming blocked her way.
Song Lan's eyes and brows were filled with suppressed anger. " President Bai, are you ever going to stop?"
Bai Zheming's eyes and brows were also filled with suppressed anger. He glanced at Jiang Mingxi standing under a tree not far away, then turned back to Song Lan and said coldly in a low voice, "You don't really like him at all."
Song Lan's anger flared up threefold. "I don't like it?"
Taking a deep breath, Song Lan didn't want to argue with Bai Zheming. " President Bai, this is between Xiaoxi and me. You're just an outsider. Even if you're trying to steal someone else's partner, your behavior is despicable."
Bai Zheming looked at him coldly, "If you really like him, do you know how much suffering he has endured? If you don't know, it means you haven't put your heart into it. If you do know, it means you don't care about the suffering he has endured. Neither of those means you truly like him."
Song Lan simply thought this person was insane!
Before Song Lan could speak, Bai Zheming concluded, "If you truly like him, how could you bear to let him grovel and coax you knowing what he's been through? Does liking someone mean constantly demanding their coaxing?"
Or rather, you simply don't like people.
"If you don't like it, let go as soon as possible, so as not to waste other people's time."
Song Lan was taken aback.
Song Lan appeared clumsy and ridiculous when she was dating Jiang Mingxi, but she wasn't actually bad-witted.
In a brief moment, he understood what Bai Zheming meant.
His expression turned completely cold. "You investigated Jiang Mingxi?"
Bai Zheming neither confirmed nor denied it.
Song Lan's expression was cold. "Since you've investigated, you should know that after being driven to suicide by the Jiang Family several times by cutting his wrists, he suffered a complete mental breakdown."
Bai Zheming frowned, his heart inexplicably tightening.
Song Lan continued, "Since you've investigated, you should know that his personality is completely different now than it was a few years ago. He..."
Song Lan's voice trembled, tinged with anger.
Jiang Mingxi imagined another version of herself.
Unlike my former self, this new self is omnipotent, capable of taking everything in stride, has learned to protect myself, knows when to extricate myself, and instinctively avoids harm...
This is what Song Lan found out early this morning.
He either had some last-minute notice or went to see that doctor.
But Song Lan didn't need to tell Bai Zheming, an outsider, about these things.
He paused for a moment, then said, "We have our own way of getting along. President Bai's interference isn't what you call protecting him; it just makes him feel like a burden."
After finishing her sentence, Song Lan was about to leave.
Bai Zheming raised his hand to block, "Are you trying to say that he's sick right now?"
Song Lan frowned.
He disliked that word very much.
What does it mean to be sick? Jiang Mingxi is just cleverly developing a form of self-protection.
"You take advantage of his illness to trample on his feelings so recklessly? Song Lan, are you even human?"
Song Lan's suppressed anger completely spiraled out of control after Bai Zheming's provocative accusation. She raised her hand and punched Bai Zheming.
Bai Zheming reacted quickly and blocked the attack.
But Song Lan's punch was so fast and powerful that Bai Zheming couldn't stop it.
Bang!
He got punched in the face.
Bai Zheming wiped his mouth, then threw a punch at Song Lan with his backhand, "You're just angry because I hit the nail on the head!"
In the blink of an eye, the two domineering CEOs started fighting.
The instant they started fighting.
beside.
The director exclaimed with gratitude, "The live stream has been answered!"
Before the word "la" could be finished, it turned into a terrified shudder.
Staring in disbelief and utterly horrified, they looked at Bai Zheming and Song Lan, who were locked in a fierce struggle.
Not far behind Bai Zheming and Song Lan, Chen Chong was pressing down on Zhao Jiayuan.
director:...
director:!!!
Holy crap! What an explosion!
Why did Bai Zheming and Song Lan start fighting? What exactly happened?
[Holy crap, cameraman, zoom in! Isn't my son being forced to kiss by Chen Chong over there?]
Is my son unable to stand?
Before the director could react, before the comments section could even open, the assistant director jumped up and shouted, "The live stream has been shut down for allegedly involving violence and sexually suggestive content!"
director:...
director:!!!
He collapsed to the ground, losing all his strength and abilities.
