The party ignited Wen's passion

  Tian Tian's pupils constricted slightly, "Lin Ling! How did you end up here?"

  It seems like she found what was said particularly ridiculous, Lin Ling's mouth corners curled up, "Why can't I be here, is it that you Tian Tian can come but I can't?"

  Suddenly felt Lin Ling somewhat unwell, "You..."

  Lin Ling picked up the wine glass on the table and drank it all in one gulp. "I'm married, Tian Tian."

  Tian Tian raised an eyebrow, "Marriage? With whom?"

  "I'm telling you, Xǔ Yìtiān, believe it or not?" Lin Ling suddenly burst out laughing.

  "What did you say?" Tian Tian suddenly became serious.

  "Haha, I thought of provoking you by mentioning this name, and it's spot on. Do you still remember when we were kids, that time you splattered ink all over me?"

  Tian Tian didn't speak and waited for Lin Ling to continue speaking.

  "At that time, I hated you, hated you so much that I wanted to kill you, but at the same time, I was also very afraid of you." Lin Ling's expression was very helpless.

  Chen Tian likes you.

  I'm afraid you don't know what kind of vicious way to deal with me.

  She shrugged and continued, "I'm not afraid now."

  "Have you seen Bob? He's one of the most influential billionaires in American business, worth tens of billions, and is currently running for governor of California. He's my husband." Lin Ling spoke with a tone as if reciting a mathematical formula, without much emotion.

  Tian Tian suddenly let out a sigh, she didn't know why, although she knew the possibility of Lin Ling marrying Xu Yi Tian was extremely small, but she still couldn't put her mind at ease. She looked at the man in her line of sight, that short and fat American man, his small eyes emitting a sharp and greedy light like a mouse, intimately chatting with a fashionably dressed woman, without even glancing at his own wife. A man like this, why would Lin Ling marry him? Lin Ling was still so young.

  "You want to ask me why I married him?" Lin Ling sneered.

  "Uh-huh," Tian nodded slightly.

  "It's simple, because he has money. And I, don't have any." After my family and the Peng family went bankrupt, I became a poor wretch. Since I was young, I didn't have parents, it was all my grandfather who raised me. Whatever I wanted, he would give to me. After his passing, my uncles and aunts snatched away all of Grandfather's assets, then they chased me out of the Lin family home. So now, I don't have anything." "Few words, but very heart-wrenching," "So, do you know how much I hate you?" Lin Ling's sharp gaze stared at Tian Tian.

  "It can be imagined," Tian said.

  "One reason I married your good friend," Lin Ling continued, "is that he is your competitor and he wants to drive your business out of the United States."

  "Is it?" Tian Tian said, without much emotional fluctuation.

  Lin Ling looked at her expressionless face with some skepticism and said, "Aren't you afraid that your company will go bankrupt?"

  "Now I'm just afraid he'll be gone forever."

  I will never abandon him for anything again.

  If you want revenge, come on, I'm not afraid of you.

  Lin Ling naturally knew who 'he' was, "You like Tian Cheng that much?"

  "Don't you like it?" Tian Tian said with a half-serious and half-joking tone.

  Lin Ling lowered her head and remained silent for a while before saying, "What's the point? He doesn't like me anyway."

  "Lin Ling, be kinder to yourself, these are my last words to you." Tian Tian sighed and said.

  "What qualifications do you have to say that?" Lin Ling said somewhat incredulously, "Do you still think you're the high and mighty Tian Tian? You're just a clumsy bird who's lost its wings, whereas I now possess even greater power than you."

  "Lin Ling, remember what I told you, never rely on men, make yourself stronger, and then you'll have more confidence in what you say." Tian Tian said seriously.

  "Are you trying to educate me?" Lin Ling said, "I'm no longer the young child I used to be. Now it's my turn to take you down and let you taste what it's like to be trampled underfoot!"

  "Good," Tian Tian said.

  Lin Ling stood up, glanced at Tian Tian, and walked straight over to Bob, holding onto his fat arm with a smile on her face, saying something that couldn't be understood.

  Tian Tian suddenly felt that she was really tired.

  I'm so tired that I don't even want to think about it anymore.

  At this time, Lu An walked over and sat down beside her, pointing at Lin Ling and saying, "Who is that girl?"

  Lin Ling, the granddaughter of Old Man Lin.

  Lu An seemed to be thinking, "Is Bob her husband?"

  "It seems so," Tian Tian said.

  They're quite a match. The woman is sinister, the man is cunning. "Lu An let out a cold hum," that woman just 'accidentally' spilled wine all over me." As he spoke, Lu An pointed to the dark red stain on his suit, saying it with some helplessness.

  "She must have seen you and me together," "How old are you now, still just this little trick?"

  "Oh," Lu nodded, "Bob is not a good guy, you'd better stay away from him."

  "Who can walk this far without having bloodstained hands?" I understood.

  It just so happened that Bob walked over at this time, his short fingers crossed, sitting next to Tian Tian, "Miss Mona, I've long admired your name."

  "I've long admired you," Tian Tian said with a hint of a smile at the corner of her mouth.

  "I heard that Mona's company in the US isn't doing very well," Bob said with a somewhat worried expression.

  "It's all thanks to your 'support'," Tian Tian replied.

  "In three months, get out of the US market, or you'll be waiting for bankruptcy." Bob said coldly.

  "Well, I have no choice but to compete with you," Tian Tian said.

  "Underestimating oneself," Bob threw in a line.

  Tian Tian didn't say anything, just looked at Bob.

  "Ling (Lin Ling) said, you have some past conflicts with her family?" Bob picked up his glass and took a sip. Tian Tian saw his fat neck moving up and down, and suddenly felt very uncomfortable.

  "Yes," she replied calmly.

  "When we got married, the only dowry she wanted was for me to bankrupt the Tian family." Bob said with some pride, "But I've always had a thing for beautiful women, especially smart and beautiful ones." As he spoke, Bob's hand reached out towards Tian Tian's, but was quickly dodged. Tian Tian used her actions to stop Lu An from intervening, wanting to resolve the issue on her own.

  "Don't you know that the more intelligent and beautiful a woman is, the more dangerous she is?"

  "Heh heh," Bob chuckled, "looks like you're being a bit ungrateful."

  "I've always been like this, not knowing how to show respect." Tian Tian smiled faintly. "If you want my business, just come and take it. I heard that you're going to run for governor, but even if you have money, I believe the American people value character more. If I release this recording, I'm afraid you'll be out of luck for becoming governor." Looking at Bob's increasingly cold face, Tian Tian continued, "Of course, as long as you don't make things difficult for me, I won't go too far either. You'd better take care of yourself."

  Bob clenched his fist and slammed it onto the coffee table, "You!"

  Tian Tian's expression was still very calm, "Later on, you'll be meeting even more friends, I think it's better if you keep a good mood. Your face right now is really... stinky. Let's go first, goodbye."

  Tian Tian finished speaking and gestured for Lu An to follow her out.

  The two of them left this grand business gathering.

  On the bus.

  "Lu An," Tian Tian called out his name.

  "Huh?"

  "I feel so miserable," she said, and then leaned her head against Rouan's broad shoulder.

  "What's wrong?" Lu An's voice was also much softer.

  "I'm so tired, you know?"

  The little woman on his shoulder seemed to be sobbing, he freed one hand and gently, clumsily patted her head, saying "I know."

  "I miss him so much, but I couldn't find him... Lu An, what should I do..." A teardrop fell onto the white shirt, Lu An felt the scorching of the tear on her skin, she closed her eyes and sobbed.

  Yes! What to do? He didn't know what to do either. He could only softly comfort her. "Don't cry, dear, everything will be fine, he'll come back." In fact, in his heart, he was thinking that he never wanted him to come back again, forgive his selfishness, he just wanted time to heal her wounds and then stay by his side forever. Never let another damned man appear again.

  Love is originally selfish like this.

  Selfishness has reached the point where he wants her to be his alone.

  "It's okay, be good and sleep well, it'll be fine." Lu An stroked her long hair, now she was like a obedient little kitten.

  Tian Tian slowly fell asleep.

  Lu An drove on, maintaining a steady posture so as not to wake her up.

  After returning home, winter arrived again soon. N city is a city that loves snowfall, and every year it will bring a heavy snowfall to show its love for the people of N city.

  This winter, Fengda's US subsidiary announced its bankruptcy, which was within Tian Tian's expectations. She didn't show much shock and after handling the relevant procedures, she stayed at home, reading books from time to time, inquiring about business at the company, and enjoying her leisure time.

  This winter, she should have spent the New Year alone. Her parents also called to tell her not to work too hard and that it was okay if one branch office was missing. They also wanted her to return to France for the New Year, but Tian Tian tactfully declined, saying she would definitely go next year.

  Only she knew the reason for not going back. What if, during this time, he came back and she didn't know, it would be a misunderstanding. So, she decided to stay here and wait for him.

  That day, Lu An came to find her, "Hey! Tian Tian, let's go out and play?"

  "Hmm, where?" Tian Tian said.

  "Amusement park, I want to go and play, let's go together." Lu An's eyes sparkled with excitement, full of childlike innocence.

  Tian nodded slightly.

  After arriving at the playground, Lu An bought two ice cream cones and handed one to Tian Tian. Tian Tian took it in her hand, licked it a bit, and said, "I want to play that."
