As soon as Jiang Niansheng said that, the air froze. The tension was high like the silence before the storm.

“Brother, sister-in-law, I remembered I have something to do.” Sheng Miaomiao had a bad feeling and she made her escape. “Sister-in-law, I’ll see you next time. Bye!”

Sheng Hanye’s steps were particularly slow as he walked towards Jiang Niansheng.

Jiang Niansheng subconsciously stepped back. “What… What’s wrong with you…”

He looked like he was going to eat her up.

Sheng Hanye reached out and pulled her into his arms, holding her slender waist tightly. The force was so strong that Jiang Niansheng felt that her waist was about to break.

“Ouch!” She yelped. “It’s hurt…”

“Jiang Niansheng, you’re Jiang Niansheng.”

“Yes, that’s my name.”

Sheng Hanye’s eyes gradually turned tempestuous. “Say that you don’t hate me, you will never hate me.”

“How can I not hate…”

“Say it!” Veins bulged on his neck. “Say that you don’t hate me, that you won’t leave me, and that you will stay by my side forever!”

Jiang Niansheng looked at him and said slowly, “I hate you, I will leave and I won’t be by your side forever!”

Jiang Niansheng had struck a sore spot. Sheng Hanye frowned as he raised his hand. He was going to hit her!

Jiang Niansheng was still a little afraid, but she refused to yield.

Sheng Hanye demanded furiously, “Say it. Say that you won’t leave me!”

“I will not say anything like that!”

His hand fell down quickly and accurately.

Jiang Niansheng closed her eyes.

There was a bang beside her ear. The pain did not come.

Jiang Niansheng opened her eyes and realized that the man had punched the wall instead.

Blood flowed down the wall.

Jiang Niansheng suddenly thought of something. “Sheng Hanye, are you having an episode?”

He gritted his teeth. “Say it! Say it now!”

“You need to calm down.” After realizing the real situation, Jiang Niansheng sighed. “I won’t leave you.”

‘Why am I arguing with a man with PTSD? I need to help him calm down first.’

The next second, Sheng Hanye held her in his arms. “Don’t leave me. I am so afraid of losing you…” At that moment, he did not look like the high and mighty CEO of Sheng Shi Corporation. He was a man who had been deeply hurt.

Jiang Niansheng took out her incense pouch. She muttered to herself, “Who did you lose? Isn’t that woman still alive and well? When we were at your parent’s place, you even called her, and said the position of Mrs. Sheng will always be hers…”

This was too strange. She thought about it and got nowhere.

Sheng Hanye slowly quieted down, but he did not loosen his grip on her.

Jiang Niansheng’s legs were numb from standing. He still didn’t move. “Sheng Hanye? Sheng Hanye?”

She lifted her head that was caught in his embrace with difficulty. The man was asleep. She stuffed the pouch into his suit pocket and helped him onto the sofa.

“That was exhausting.” Jiang Niansheng cracked her hands. “Sleep well, this is better than taking sedatives.”

When Sheng Hanye opened his eyes again, it was already afternoon. The golden glow of the setting sun shone on the floor. He had slept soundly. Sheng Hanye was normally a light sleeper. The slightest movement would wake him up. It had been a long time since he had had a deep sleep.

Sheng Hanye got up, and something fell to the ground.

He picked it up and saw that it was Jiang Niansheng’s incense pouch. ‘It’s one thing for her to look like Wen Wan, but why does she smell like Wen Wan?’

The perfume party on Friday was held on the top floor of Nan City Hotel.

The hotel was surrounded by security personnel. The floor was covered with a red carpet, and luxury cars were parked everywhere.

The guests were of high caliber. But once Sheng Hanye appeared, he was surrounded. People wanted to toast him, fawn over him and make connections with him.

Seeing this, Jiang Niansheng slipped through the crowd and ran to a corner to wait.

She was happily eating the exquisite dessert when she heard someone call out, “Mrs. Sheng.”

“Miss Lin?” Jiang Niansheng looked up and then looked around. “This is such a coincidence. Why is Qiao Jingze not with you?”

“He went to the bathroom.”

“Oh. Then how can I help you?”

Lin Xiaoyun looked at her. “I’m here to warn you. Stay away from Jingze. Don’t try to drive a wedge between us because you were old friends with him.”

“Well, sounds like you’ve found out everything.” Jiang Niansheng smiled. “But that’s all in the past.”

“But he still has feelings for you!”

“And how is that my problem?” Jiang Niansheng asked. “You should talk to him. I didn’t do anything.”

Lin Xiaoyun replied, “Regardless, I’m here to warn you. I love him very much. The Lin family will be very kind to him. Once he marries me, his career will skyrocket.”

“You are funny.” Jiang Niansheng put down the dessert and ruffled her hair. “I’m Mrs. Sheng. Do you think I need Qiao Jingze?”

“You better watch yourself.”

“No, you better watch your fiance. I can’t wait for you two to get married so he can stay away from me.”

Lin Xiaoyun snorted. “I will make sure of that.”

Jiang Niansheng rolled his eyes at her. Then, Ye Ziya walked over.

‘Fuck! What kind of lousy party is this? Is this a gathering of all the people who hate me?’

“Xiaoyun, I didn’t know you’d be here,” Ye Ziya said. “It’s been a while since we met.”

The upper echelon of Nan City was very small, so people knew each other. Ye Ziya and Lin Xiaoyun were both socialites, so they were familiar with each other.

Lin Xiaoyun smiled politely. “I only came to the party to talk to Mrs. Sheng.”

Ye Ziya said sarcastically. “Oh, she calls herself Mrs. Sheng now? Such blind confidence.”

Jiang Niansheng couldn’t be bothered with her. She rolled her eyes again and turned to leave. ‘What is wrong with these people? ‘

To her surprise, Ye Ziya grabbed her. “Where are you going? Feeling ashamed?”

“What is there for me to be ashamed of?” Jiang Niansheng asked. “Just say what’s on your mind, stop wasting my time.”

“Such arrogance, but no matter, because your arrogance will end tonight.”

“What do you mean?”

Ye Ziya said smugly, “You don’t know?”

“Yes, I am not as big of a gossip as you are.” Jiang Niansheng said, “Regardless if you don’t want to tell me, let me go. I am not interested.”

“Am I the gossip or no one wants to tell you the truth? This is a big party and Sheng Hanye hasn’t even officially introduced you to anyone. Clearly, you don’t matter in his heart.”

Jiang Niansheng smiled. “I don’t care for a position in his heart. Furthermore, for the public, I matter more than you do.”

“You!” Ye Ziya was furious. “Let’s see how much longer you can maintain this stuck-up attitude. Jiang Niansheng, let me tell you. She’s back. She just got off the plane an hour ago. And she is on her way here now!”

Jiang Niansheng’s smile slowly disappeared. “She?”

“Yes, she’s back! Let’s see how much longer you can act like this in front of her!”
