“As long as I don’t admit to it, he won’t get a confirmation even if he has doubts about it.”

“But… what if he’s already confirmed it even without your admission?” Liu Yan asked worriedly.

Struck by suspicion, Wu Nian thought of a question. “Gu Mingchen came looking for Shen Yiyan today. Could it be that he’s trying to find out if I’m Bai Rong?”

“Gu Mingchen did ask that, but Shen Yiyan denied it,” Liu Yan explained.

Wu Nian lowered her gaze.

I knew it! The way Gu Mingchen behaved and spoke yesterday was totally out of the ordinary. Now that I think about it, he’s probably suspecting that I’m Bai Rong. He has his suspicions, that’s why he’s keeping a distance from me.

Liu Yan watched as Wu Nian fell silent, but she soon lost her patience and went on a rant, “So what if he does know? You don’t like him anymore and that’s not likely to change. Besides, the two of you are divorced, so what are you afraid of? Just let him know. After all, he’s treated you badly in the past.”

Wu Nian said nothing as she got lost in her own thoughts.

The minutes ticked by. half an hour later, Wu Nian finished her transfusion. “Come on, let’s go shopping for presents.”

“What should we buy for her? We can’t get jewelry since she’s in the business. We can’t get her clothes either since we don’t even know her size. I’m guessing she comes from a rich family, so she must have them tailor-made. Lipsticks and other cosmetic products won’t do. They’ll come off as shabby. Gosh, what else does she like besides men? She seems to have everything!” Liu Yan sighed.

“Let’s get her an LV bag. The latest design. There’s always room for one more bag in every woman’s closet!” Wu Nian suggested.

“Bingo! Good thinking! Let’s go get one right now. Shopping for bags is a remedy for many illnesses, after all. Haha!” With that, Liu Yan locked arms with Wu Nian, and off they went to the most high-end shopping plaza in Xenhall.

They were heading to the elevator on the first floor when they just so happened to come across Su Xuyan buying perfume.

Liu Yan grabbed Wu Nian and hurried past him.

However, Su Xuyan spotted Wu Nian out of the corner of his eye. He called out to her, “Nian, how nice to see you here, of all places. I was just thinking of getting a bottle of perfume for you as a token for saving me the other day. Come and take a look, will you? Tell me which one you like.”

“Nian never uses perfume. So thanks, but no thanks. Besides, she didn’t save you. She saved her boyfriend. You just happened to be there,” Liu Yan gave a blunt statement and led Wu Nian into the elevator.

As for Wu Nian, she refused to meet Su Xuyan’s gaze. She simply looked straight ahead.

A smirk curled up the corners of Su Xuyan’s mouth. Tucking his hands in his pockets, he followed them.

Liu Yan saw Su Xuyan following them and stepped in front of him. “I’ll say, you’re one heck of a rascal, aren’t you? Why are you following us? You did the same thing to Bai. She said she didn’t like you, but you were so persistent. You know, if you keep pestering others, people are just going to get disgusted by your actions.”

A cold glint flashed in Su Xuyan’s eyes. “You should be lucky that you’re Shen Yiyan’s woman. Otherwise, with that personality of yours, you would have died many times over.”

“Are you saying that you would have killed me many times over? Su Xuyan, you’re nothing but a ruthless killer,” Liu Yan said sternly.

“If I were a ruthless killer, you wouldn’t have lived to talk about it right now.”

“Seeing that you’d even kill the woman you like, I ought to thank you for sparing me, then.” With that, Liu Yan rolled her eyes at him before dragging Wu Nian away.

“If Bai Rong hadn’t left me, I wouldn’t have let her die,” Su Xuyan said as he watched Wu Nian leave.

Liu Yan did not turn around. Instead, she quickened her steps. “Su Xuyan’s so annoying. It was wise of you to divorce him back then. I think he’s dated more than a dozen girlfriends within the year. He’s nothing but a player and a piece of trash!”

“Just don’t argue with him from now on. He’s a menace. If you ignore him, he’ll give up the pursuit,” Wu Nian reminded her.

“I have a bad temper. I can’t help it.”

They entered the LV specialty store.

“Hey boss, are there any new products this month?” Liu Yan asked.

“Yes, we do. Unfortunately, it’s a limited edition. Someone ordered it last month,” the clerk apologized. “Would you like to take a look at other designs? Some are quite popular too.”

“When you say limited edition, do you mean there’s only one?” Liu Yan asked in disappointment.

“Each specialty store only gets one, I’m afraid. Sorry about that. If you want, you can try your luck at other specialty stores.”

Liu Yan glanced at Wu Nian. “Even if other cities have it, the birthday party’s tomorrow. I don’t know if we can make it in time.”

“Do you have that customer’s contact number?” Wu Nian asked the shop assistant.

“Well…” Just then, the assistant saw Su Xuyan entering the shop. She welcomed him with a broad smile. “Mr. Su, have you come to collect your bag?”

Su Xuyan nodded.

The shop assistant then respectfully handed the pre-packaged limited edition bag to him.

Su Xuyan accepted the bag, turned to Wu Nian, and passed the package to her. “You want it, don’t you? Here you go.”

Liu Yan slapped his hand away. “Who the hell would want your stuff? Get lost.”

Su Xuyan frowned, displeasure evident in his gaze as he stared at Liu Yan.

Wu Nian’s heart sank when she noticed Su Xuyan’s sharp gaze landing on her friend.

She was all too familiar with that look. Su Xuyan was someone who would try every trick in the book, and he had many methods to go about his deeds. Once initiated, he could let his victims walk into his traps unknowingly. They would not even know what hit them.

“Yan…” Wu Nian called out to Liu Yan to get her to stop.

The woman glanced back at Wu Nian.

Wu Nian took the bag from Su Xuyan and expressed her gratitude in a polite, albeit distant, manner. “Thank you so much, Mr. Su. It just so happened that I need this bag.”

“Is it a gift for Ai Wei’er?” Su Xuyan asked knowingly. NôvelDrama.Org content.

Wu Nian’s lips twitched. “So, you don’t intend to compete?”

Su Xuyan shrugged. “A bag won’t change anything, but I’m confident that Mo Xue will accept my partnership. Do you believe me?”

Wu Nian studied his expression. He seemed very sure of himself. “If Mr. Su managed to snag the partnership, I shall admit my defeat.”

“Well, if you promise to be my woman for one month, I’m willing to pass the partnership opportunity to you, and ensure your success,” Su Xuyan proposed deviously.

“Su Xuyan, how shameless of you! How could you make such a request! No matter, we don’t need your generosity. We can secure the partnership ourselves,” Liu Yan countered furiously.

“Rest assured, I promise you won’t get it,” Su Xuyan gave his arrogant remark, his gaze never left Wu Nian. “My business card is in the bag. You have twenty-four hours to think about it.”

“I will,” Wu Nian said casually.

“Think about what? Don’t take that bag!” Liu Yan snatched the bag from Wu Nian and threw it onto the ground.

Su Xuyan turned to leave.

Wu Nian picked the bag up on the floor.

“Nian, are you crazy? You want to offer yourself to a demon like him?” Liu Yan could not understand it.

Wu Nian gave her the side-eye. “If Bai Rong were in this situation, how do you think she would answer him?”

“She would tell him to get out of her sight!” Liu Yan exclaimed without hesitation.

Wu Nian’s lips quirked up. “Exactly.”

Comprehension dawned on Liu Yan. “You just want to show that you’re different from Bai Rong, when in fact you’ll definitely reject him. Is that right?”

“I can’t possibly jump into the fire pit again, knowing what’s in there. However, Su Xuyan must be quite confident if he could boast about it. Now that Stephen is on our side, I wonder what kind of plan he has conjured.” Wu Nian narrowed her eyes, deep in thought.
