Chapter 38 Annual Ceremony



Chapter 38 Annual Ceremony

Jiang Wan couldn't help but laugh at his words.

[I was just kidding. Okay, don't be angry, Lu An.]

Shao Lu'an slowly lowered his eyelids, realizing that his emotions seemed to be completely controlled by Jiang Wan.

Otherwise, why would just this one sentence make him feel so excited?

This feeling made his heart feel as if it was being lifted up by something, neither up nor down, feeling sour and depressed.

It was not until this moment that Shao Lu'an finally realized the seriousness of the matter.

After a while, he suddenly threw his cell phone into the passenger seat and drove out of the parking lot.

Shao Lu'an didn't reply to the message and Jiang Wan didn't care. Instead, he opened Xie Heng's chat box.

The man included his full name when applying for friend status.

As for the content of the message, it was somewhat beyond Jiang Wan's expectations.

【Go to bed early, good night, Wanwan. 】

She curved her eyebrows slightly, said good night and put down her phone.

The next day.

They agreed to meet for lunch at the restaurant at 12 o'clock the next day, and Jiang Wan arrived just fifteen minutes early.

Unexpectedly, the three of them met at the restaurant door by coincidence.

Jiang Wan introduced the two to each other, and then, under the guidance of the waiter, they entered a private room in the corner by the window, which was separated by a screen.

This restaurant near Kyoto University is relatively quiet, with retro and elegant décor. It is within a moderate distance from the three people's residence and has good privacy.

But Jiang Wan chose this place for another reason.

In her previous life, Yin Xi had booked this restaurant when he invited her to dinner for the first time. Now, in a sense, it can be considered as a token of his thoughtfulness.

Yin Xi was also a little surprised that Jiang Wan chose this place.

"Wanwan, I've wanted to try this newly opened restaurant for a while, but I never had the time. I didn't expect you to invite me here today. But... I'm afraid it's going to cost you money."

Yin Xi knew that the cost of this restaurant was not low.

Jiang Wan chuckled.

"It shows that we are destined to be together. It's not a big deal. I will have to trouble Sister Xi a lot in the future."

Yin Xi was dazzled by her smile and couldn't take her eyes away, but suddenly she caught a glimpse of He Nanchao, who seemed a little taciturn, staring at Jiang Wan quietly with his eyelashes slightly closed, his eyes were calm but focused.

As someone who had experienced this, Yin Xi's eyes suddenly became meaningful.

When she arrived at the restaurant, the first person she saw was He Nanchao.

At that time, of course, she didn't know that the young man in front of her was the companion that Jiang Wan had mentioned. She only secretly sighed in her heart that this man was so handsome.

The most important thing is that she has a very clean temperament, the kind of cleanliness that even Yin Xi couldn't help but take a few more glances at after seeing her.

Unfortunately, his eyes were dull and gloomy, and one could tell at a glance what he had been through.

After Jiang Wan appeared, his expression changed instantly.

If we are going to work together for a long time in the future... I don't know whether He Nanchao's idea is good or bad.

However, Yin Xi has always been clear-headed and would not worry about this matter.

After all, she thought, people like Jiang Wan will only be missed by more and more people in the future.

As Jiang Wan's future agent, she should keep a calm mind and get used to it as soon as possible.

Thinking of this, Yin Xi smiled and shook her head, and continued to talk about future plans and intentions.

When they were almost done eating, Jiang Wan said hello to the two of them, then got up and went to the bathroom alone.

When I walked out to the corridor again, my phone suddenly vibrated, followed by several WeChat message reminders.

When I opened the screen, I saw that the message came from Nan Nan, the operator who was responsible for connecting with her when she signed the additional contract with the platform.

【Hello Wanwan, sorry to bother you! 】

[Next week is the annual grand ceremony of our Cool Cat. We will invite the top anchors from different sections of the platform to participate. We have been sending invitations to the anchors since the beginning of the month. 】

[You’ve only been live for less than a week and you’ve already topped the newcomer list for two consecutive days. Of course, you’re also on our invitation list! ]

[So now I need to confirm with you, Wan Wan, whether you are willing to participate? ]

After the message was the webpage shared by Nan Nan.

Jiang Wan clicked on it and saw that the content of the webpage was exactly the specific information about the event, including the time, address, and event schedule.

Annual Ceremony...

The meaning of accepting the invitation is self-evident.

But next week, it will be about the same.

After thinking for a while, she tapped her fingertips and replied, "Nannan, can you give me some time to think about it?"

The other side responded almost instantly.

[Of course, it can be done within three days. I look forward to your reply! ]

Jiang Wan's eyelashes twitched slightly. She simply thanked him and put away her phone, but suddenly she saw a figure walking out from the corner of the corridor.

The moment she caught a glimpse of the man's face from the corner of her eye, her pupils suddenly shrank and her breathing became disordered.

Jiang Wan always remembered the vague and terrified voice he heard before his death, and he would never forget the indescribable tearing pain when he fell heavily on the car window.

Yes, if she heard correctly, she seemed to have hit the car window of Fu Chi who had just arrived at the hotel.

Things that seem ridiculous and absurd don't seem strange when applied to her.

The man was tall and straight, with smooth and clear facial contours. The corners of his lips were tightly pursed, making him look a little cold-hearted. However, above his straight nose were a pair of affectionate eyes with thick eyelashes raised and slightly tilted corners.

Who else could it be but Fu Chi?

Speaking of her entanglement with Meng Shuyi, it all started with Fu Chi.

Of course, there is a reason why Meng Shuyi likes Fu Chi.

Objectively speaking, the man is indeed born superior, young, and noble. Although he occasionally has the sharpness of a young man, most of the time he is humble and gentle to everyone.

It is easy for such a man to win the favor of girls, but it brings endless troubles to Jiang Wan.

Jiang Wan first came into contact with Fu Chi at Meng Shuyi's birthday party.

When she first entered Peking University, Meng Shuyi's attitude towards her was certainly not to the point where they later broke off relations or even became hostile, so all the classmates were invited to the birthday party, including her.

Of course Fu Chi was there too.

In addition, there was another boy who had expressed his affection for Jiang Wan a long time ago.

At first Jiang Wan politely refused, but the boy had no intention of giving up. He even chased after Meng Shuyi and pestered her when she was about to leave after the birthday party.

This scene happened to be witnessed by Fu Chi who was also preparing to leave.

Fu Chi just said a few words and sent the man away, and later offered to send her back.

Although Jiang Wan was grateful to Fu Chi, he always kept his distance from such seemingly good intentions, not to mention that the man obviously had a close relationship with Meng Shuyi.

So she refused directly and turned away.

What she didn't expect was that the person who was harassing her at the time told Meng Shuyi about this matter.

It was obvious that even if she did nothing, Meng Shuyi would have no scruples about focusing all her dissatisfaction on her alone.

This is where the dispute arises.

After that, Jiang Wan seemed to be trapped in a repetitive loop, constantly appearing in the same occasions with Meng Shuyi and Fu Chi for various reasons that were inexplicable to her.

Jiang Wan, who clearly tried to avoid these two people but seemed to always be circling around them, finally realized at a certain moment... that he seemed to be just a tool that could not change the established situation.

She quickly confirmed her identity through countless moments of doubt and confirmation.

But what can we do even so?

She has been completely regarded as a thorn in the side by Meng Shuyi, who secretly investigated her identity. She has almost lost her life due to accidents when trying to escape countless times.

In order to live a stable life, Jiang Wan had to give up everything he had worked hard for, and returned to Rong City after paying off all his debts.

But it was all in vain, and she ended up dying in front of both of them.

Fortunately, now she no longer has to suppress her ambitions and nature, and she has the opportunity to completely break free from the shackles.
