‘What? Does she really have a solution? So I’m going to let her slip away just like that?’
“I’ll get you some cold water and ice,” Jiang Niansheng said as she nimbly jumped off the bed. “Wait for me!”
Sheng Hanye leaned against the headboard and pressed hard between his eyebrows.
Jiang Niansheng moved quickly and filled the bathtub with cold water. She even poured an entire bucket of ice into it.
“You want me to take a cold bath?” He asked. “Wouldn’t it be more efficient to use your body as the antidote?”
“You are too noble. I am not worthy.”
Sheng Hanye snorted.
Jiang Niansheng rolled her eyes. “If you don’t want the bath, then I’ll find another woman for you. What kind do you prefer? The hot and sexy type? Or the sweet and innocent type? Or…”
“Shush!”
She stepped aside obediently and made a “please” gesture.
“Jiang Niansheng, you can’t escape.” Sheng Hanye lifted her chin. “One day, you’ll be mine, from your body to your heart.”
This was an oath!
…
At the hospital, the doctor told Jiang Niansheng that her brother’s body was recovering steadily, but his intelligence could not be recovered.
She thanked him and went to her brother’s ward.
When she pushed the door open, she saw Qiao Jingze. ‘Why is he here?’
Qiao Jingze turned around. “Ah Sheng.”
Jiang Niansheng ignored him.
Jiang Yangchen ran towards her happily. “Sheng Er!”
“Big brother,” Jiang Niansheng smiled. “You should rest well in the hospital. I’ll come to see you whenever I’m free.”
“Okay. I’ll miss you every day.”
“I’ll miss you too.” Jiang Niansheng took out the jade pendant. “Brother, this our parent’s pendant. I’ll give it to you. Hopefully, it’ll protect you.”
Jiang Yangchen waved his hand when he heard that. “No, you need to keep it. It needs to protect Sheng Er.”
Jiang Niansheng put the jade pendant on his neck.
“If I have this, then what about Sheng Er?” Jiang Yangchen asked. “Father and mother always care about you.”
She smiled but her eyes were red. “Don’t worry, I’m married now so someone else will care for me.”
“Wow! Sheng Er’s prince charming is here!”
“Yeah.” Jiang Niansheng nodded. “He’s very good to me. He paid for your medical expenses.”
Qiao Jingze lowered his head silently. Jiang Yangchen held the jade pendant tightly. He ran to the mirror to take a closer look at it.
Jiang Niansheng smiled before walking out. Qiao Jingze followed behind her.
“You’re not welcome here.” In the corridor, Jiang Niansheng’s tone was cold. “Our family has nothing to do with you anymore.”
“Ah Sheng, I came to see Big Brother Jiang. How did he become like this?”
“He was hit in the head by a debt collector. I couldn’t afford the medical fees and missed out on his best treatment time.”
Qiao Jingze blamed himself. “If only I were here…”
“Well, I don’t need you to be here anymore.” Jiang Niansheng replied. “Insincere love is lighter than a feather.”
“Ah Sheng, I know I owe you a lot, but give me a chance to make up for it.”
She turned around and left. “Not seeing each other again is the best way you can make up to me. You have your fiance and I have mine. Qiao Jingze, I hope we never meet again.”
Looking at her walking away, Qiao Jingze clenched his fists. Qiao Jingze did not know that Lin Xiaoyun was watching him from a corner. A woman’s intuition was always right. No one would ruin her love. Jing Ze was hers!
…
At Sheng Shi Corporation, Jiang Niansheng was sitting at her desk when she heard Wei Lian say, “CEO Sheng has a cough. He must have caught a cold. Someone go and get him some cold medicine.”
‘The man is more than 1.8 meters tall and has eight abs. He can pick me up with one hand. He gets sick so easily?’
“I’ll go.” Jiang Niansheng stood up.

“No…” Wei Lian naturally didn’t dare to order Jiang Niansheng. But she had already walked to the President’s office with the medicine in her hand.
Sheng Hanye was correcting the documents. He coughed from time to time.
“Here’s the cold medicine. Don’t need to thank me.” Jiang Niansheng put the medicine on his table. “After all, you caught a cold because you went to help me get my jade pendant back. I always repay my debt.”
Sheng Hanye glanced at her indifferently. “Where have you been?”
“To the hospital to see my brother.”
“And your former sweetheart?”
Jiang Niansheng gritted her teeth. “You sent someone to follow me?”
“I need to know your every move.” Sheng Hanye leaned against the back of the chair. “Is there a problem?”
“Pervert.”
Jiang Niansheng kicked herself for picking the sweet cold medicine. ‘I should have given him the most bitter Chinese medicine! I shouldn’t have offered to get him the medicine anyway. Why should I care?’
She turned around and prepared to leave when Sheng Hanye’s cold voice sounded. “Stop.”
“What?”
“We’re at the company, you’re my secretary. I didn’t ask you to leave.”
Jiang Niansheng rolled her eyes. “You are not paying me any salary.”
“But I am paying your brother’s medical expenses.”
She was furious. “Sheng Hanye!”
He closed his eyes. His voice was nasally because of the cold. “My shoulders are sore.”
“So?”
“Massage them.”
Jiang Niansheng really wanted to grab the documents on the table to smash his face.
“Fine.” She grunted. “But I won’t hold back. So don’t complain when it hurts!” Jiang Niansheng walked behind him and put her hands on his shoulders. She went in hard!
“What a coincidence.” Sheng Hanye smiled. “I appreciate deep-tissue massage.”
Jiang Niansheng, “…”
At that moment, Gu Yanzhou pushed the door open and came in. “The perfume you talked about yesterday… erm…”
“Come in,” Sheng Hanye said. “Continue.”
Gu Yanzhou obliged and sit opposite Sheng Hanye.
“The perfume ingredients are here,” he said. “I brought some from the R & D Department. Do you want to smell them?”
Sheng Hanye took some to sniff. “Not bad. This perfume needs to be released before Chinese Valentine. Can the R & D Department make it on time?”
“They have done other perfumes before. So it should be fine. I have other samples.”
The perfume bottles were lined up properly. The faint fragrance floated in the air.
Sheng Hanye was about to approve them when he heard Jiang Niansheng scoff.
He paused. “Do you have an opinion to offer?”
Gu Yanzhou also looked at her with interest. “I heard from Si Cang that you know Chinese herbal medicine and how to make incense pouches?”
“He is not wrong.”
“Voice your thoughts.” Sheng Hanye’s fingertips tapped lightly on the table. “You seem to have some issues regarding these few perfumes.”
“I haven’t really picked up their scents so I can’t offer much about the fragrance.” Jiang Niansheng said. “But I do have a few comments about the bottles.”
“The bottles?”
“Yes.” She nodded. “They’re atrocious. If you put them on a counter, I would never pick them.”
Sheng Hanye smiled. “Explain.”
“First, these are women’s perfumes. So normally the designs are either girly and cute, or sophisticated and high-class. But these? They’re a hodgepodge design.
“Second, since you say they’re going to be released for Chinese Valentine, why not go along with that theme? You can even come up with couple sets.
“Third, the fragrance has to be sweet to replicate the sensation of love. Otherwise, why release during Chinese Valentine? They can be released at any other time of the year.”
Jiang Niansheng spoke with confidence.. Her expression was bright and confident.
