Chapter 290: Meeting Again

and he was afraid that Jian Tong would be obstinate. He quickly softened his voice and persuaded Jian Tong to concede, hoping to ease the situation. Once things calmed down, he could persuade Shen Xiu...Is half a life enough!

Su Meng opened her mouth, but no words came out.

It hurts a little, others say, it's all in the past, why hold on to resentment.

Just like those households hidden beneath the neon lights, under the countless glowing windows, there are many families and many stories.

Usually, the one who is wronged and bullied also has to "be" forgiven.

Look, I've already apologized. Why do you still hold a grudge You're so vengeful and petty. You're not generous at all.

Then those watching, full of righteous indignation, look, he's apologized already, what more do you want Can't you be a little kind

But those pains, only those who have experienced them can truly understand.

Su Meng looked at the heartbroken Jian Tong, she wanted this fool in front of her to be happy.

But the fool isn't really stupid. The fool is more awake than anyone, and more steadfast than anyone else. Otherwise, Su Meng couldn't imagine that after going through from heaven to hell, overnight, being reviled by everyone, after experiencing all those things, how many people could continue to live without changing their original aspirations.

Even himself... Su Meng suddenly picked up the wine glass and gulped it down.

Even she herself... hasn't she changed too

Jian Tong picked up her bag and, as she left, cast one last deep glance at Su Meng: "Meng Jie, you said, in this world, who truly understands who"

The question is nonsensical.

Su Meng was puzzled: "You…"

"In this world, one may not even understand themselves." Jian Tong looked at the woman standing in the doorway, telling her calmly: "Meng Jie, your boss thinks he understands me."

“...” Su Meng Zhang opened her mouth, she felt the topic was moving towards a feeling she couldn't describe. It gave her a strange, creepy feeling.

She stared at the door, and saw the woman smile faintly: "He was wrong."

"Creak," the door opened and closed, leaving Su Meng frozen in fright at the table in the other room. There was only the lingering scent of Pu'er tea; otherwise, it seemed as if Jian Tong had never been there.

After Jian Tong left, Su Meng was lost in thought for a long time, standing still and pondering every word she had spoken before leaving.

I always felt that the fool had already made some decision.

Jian Tong walked out of the club, a night wind blew against her skin. She pulled her coat tighter and shivered, looking up at the sky and softly muttering: "It's really cold."

The parking attendant drove the car to her.

"Just leave it be."

"Okay, Ms. Jian."

She called out to the parking attendant who was about to leave: "Wait a minute, please drive the car to the parking lot."

"And you"

I don't want to drive tonight. I'll come back tomorrow to pick it up.

"Okay, just a moment."

The valet came and went, returning the car keys to Jane.

She hadn't taken the subway or crowded buses in a long time.

Tonight, I particularly want to take the subway and be squeezed on the bus.

The time displayed on the watch, 8:30 PM. Night was approaching, but the street was still crowded with people.

The ebb and flow of people, the footsteps and conversations passing by my ears, one after another.

In a woman's eyes, there is almost envy.

The subway transfer to the bus did not drive away the loneliness she had imagined. Still, she was alone.

Still, my mind is troubled.

Still, can't escape this damned cage.

Phone call -

She picked up her phone, glanced at the caller ID, her eyes grew serious, her thumb pressed down, a hint of tension and anxiety in her eyes.

"I'm sorry, Ms. Jian. We've done everything we could."

On the phone, a formulaic female voice spoke in a well-rehearsed manner.

"But a week ago, didn't you say there was a suitable one"

"Ms. Jian, I am so sorry, we contacted that person as quickly as possible, but unfortunately, when we found him, he had been in a car accident and passed away. Just today. We did our best."

Jian Tong subconsciously tightened her grip on her phone: "Then, is there a suitable one among his family"

"I'm sorry." A woman's voice said in a formal tone over the phone.

Little Tong fell silent.

"Ms. Jian Ms. Jian Are you alright"

Jian Tong came back to her senses: "It's alright, about your payment, I will transfer it to the account you provided without a penny less."

"Ms. Jian, please rest assured. Since you have found us, we will do our best. We believe that in this world, there must be more than one successful case where someone can be a match for your brother."

Okay, thank you.

She said it lightly, knowing in her heart that opportunities like this weren't just given out on demand.

Even if so, would Jian Mo Bai still be able to wait

Putting down her phone, she slowly reached for her lower back. The scenery outside flew past rapidly, blurring into an indistinct mess. All she could clearly see were the vibrant lights lining the road.

Slowly, she closed her eyes.

Got off the car

There is still a distance from where she lives.

She walked in that direction, very slowly, very slowly. There was, of course, the reason of her inconvenient legs and feet, but also the resistance in her heart.

After walking for a while, my legs started to ache.

A cold wind whistled past her back, and with a “swoosh,” a car screeched to a halt. A black Maybach pulled up beside her.

She frowned... How could anyone drive like that.

The car door was opened easily, and he stepped out.

"Ms. Jian, please come with us."

She glared coldly, "It's dark now. Can you see with sunglasses on"

That person let out a light chuckle: "As long as I can see Miss Jian in person."

"If I say no"

"Then I have no choice but to 'ask' Miss Jian to get in the car."

Jan Tong looked coldly at the man: "Shen Yi, Shen family's rules, those who betray will suffer what consequences"

"Ms. Jian, speaking of which, you're surnamed Jian, I'm at least surnamed Shen."

"Heh~" Jian Tong scoffed, glancing over, "Shen Yi, who are you working for now"

"Shen Yi is a Shen family member after all, so naturally he'd do things for his family. Miss Jian, why ask when you already know the answer" Shen Yi grew impatient. "Alright, I still have work to do, Jian Tong. Think it over yourself: will you get in the car willingly, or will someone 'invite' you"

Jian Tong lowered her hand by her side, slightly sweating, pretending to be calm: "Okay, I'll go with you."

She quietly got into the Maybach, glancing out the window at the building where she lived. Even from inside the car, she could see the lights on in her window.

The car door closed, Shen Yi sat in the passenger seat: "Miss Jian, we meet again."

"Yes, it's nice to see you again. You're already someone else's dog."

Shen Yi seemed to be enraged, blushing with anger: "That's because of who Jian Tong, no matter what I do, I'm stronger than you, this vicious murderer!"

Jian Tong lightly tugged at the corner of her mouth, making no attempt to defend herself... Didn't Shen Yi know if she was a murderer. The burning tip of his cigarette wobbled precariously, but quickly returned to its usual indifference.Dark, deep eyes fell on the woman at the door, watching as she gasped for breath: "You ran""Wher...
