Xin Zaozao rode the car Nie Feng drove to the restaurant.

She sent Nie Feng straight back home, ordered delivery for him, and confirmed with Song Zhizhi that Luo Xiaolang wasn’t with her. She also mentioned that Xiaolang would be very busy today and in the coming days.

Her tone was a hint of dissatisfaction.

It felt like someone was trying to steal her man.

When she arrived at the restaurant’s private dining room, Song Zhizhi was not yet there. After waiting a while, Song Zhizhi opened the door.

Xin Zaozao greeted her with a radiant smile.

Song Zhizhi returned the smile and sat next to her, “You seem in high spirits today?”

“I haven’t had a meal with you in a long time. I haven’t properly thanked you for everything you did at my engagement party.”

“Have you moved on?” asked Song Zhizhi.

“Sort of.” Xin Zaozao smiled, “It wasn’t as bad as I thought. I originally thought my reputation might be ruined, but it didn’t turn out that way. The one who is scorned isn’t me, but Mu Cidian. Not only Mu Cidian, Wan Quan has been attacked a lot recently, and she frequently gets threatening messages, she seems a bit mentally unstable these days.”

“Look at this, it’s a blessing in disguise.” Song Zhizhi laughed, “But… have you ever wondered why it turned out this way?”

“Yes.” Xin Zaozao said, “Isn’t it that Mu Cidian tried to win me back? He thought that by taking this attitude, I would soften. Fortunately, I no longer believe in him. No matter what he does, I won’t believe it.”

“You really think it’s only to win you back, not because he may really be trying to help you.” Song Zhizhi reminded.

“As far as I am concerned, no matter what he does, I won’t believe him. Whether he had a change of heart and wanted to help me, has ulterior motives, I don’t care at all. He really doesn’t need to worry about it. I only know what I want!”

“Bold!” Song Zhizhi complimented, she genuinely admired Xin Zaozao.

She had always been curious about how Xin Zaozao climbed up by herself and became the unmatched strong woman in Yanshang Country with her own power.

Now, she could finally witness her growth step by step.

It hasn’t been long since they last saw each other, but Xin Zaozao has made so much progress.

Xin Zaozao felt a bit shy being praised, she replied, “Actually, I just don’t have any constraints and I don’t need to take so many things into consideration. I am alone in this life, not like the rest of you with families and responsibilities.”

“You aren’t going to stay alone forever, are you?!” Song Zhizhi joked, “I just happened to run into Baili when I went back to the Ji Family yesterday, and I casually asked about his current situation, it seems that he is still waiting for you.”

Xin Zaozao blushed, “I don’t think it’s possible between Baili and me anymore, I am not suitable for him. He should find a cleaner and more considerate girl. I am not pure, and I am too busy.”

“Don’t hold onto that kind of thinking, everyone has their past!”

“Let’s talk about future matters in the future. But I am very sure that I will not consider personal issues for a long time. Thinking about it now, it was good that Baili and I didn’t end up together back then. I hadn’t prepared myself, I wasn’t sure whether I could be a good wife or not. Looking back at my troubled past and fearing the family environment, it seems better to be alone.”

So that was the reason why Xin Zaozao had chosen to stay single in her previous life in Song Zhizhi’s eyes.

She was indeed very averse to marriage, family, and even… kids in the future.

She didn’t say much.

It’s just that at this time when she had experienced so much, it might be a burden to Xin Zaozao if she talks more.

However, there was something she felt the need to make clear to Xin Zaozao, “Zaozao, you said Wan Quan is acting a bit crazy right now?”

“Yes.”

“You are currently enjoying public favor, while she is being forced into a corner. I’m worried that she might take some extreme, revengeful actions against you at this time.”

“Yeah.” Xin Zaozao laughed, “I know. That’s why I always keep Nie Feng around.”

“Just don’t let your guard down.”

“Okay.” Xin Zaozao nodded, then she asked, “We’ve talked so much about me, how are you doing? Now that Yi Wenhan has become the head of Commercial Management, and you are working in Commercial Management.”

“What else can I do? Just fight back. Right now, Yi Wenhan doesn’t dare to directly target me, his current priority is to stabilize his new position. He is definitely going to do everything he can to win over the big chiefs in Commercial Management and the families of the large consortiums in Yanshang Country. He needs to win people’s hearts, get good results. For the time being, he won’t target me explicitly. However, I can’t guarantee that he won’t bear any grudges.”

“Huh?” Xin Zaozao was surprised.

“Yi Wenhan has endured for so many years, now he finally can hold his head high. He always assumed that I married Ji Baijian because he didn’t have a strong enough background, that I married up. Now that he is in a high position, he would love to see me regret my decision. Therefore, he might not be able to resist seeking revenge against me!”

“Now that his power is so great, you seem quite calm.”

“What else can I do? If I really get anxious, wouldn’t that just suit Yi Wenhan? Rest assured, Yi Wenhan merely thinks he has a strong backing. In reality, he doesn’t compare with my husband.” 𝒻𝓻𝑒ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝑛𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓁.𝑐𝘰𝓶

“Your husband?” Xin Zaozao jokingly asked.

At that moment, Song Zhizhi also felt a bit shy.

After a day dealing with Ji Baijian, she felt as if she had journeyed from ancient times.

She said, “In any case, don’t worry too much about me.”

“I know you’re strong and so is Ji Baijian. I can assure you that even if Yi Wenhan tries to win me over, when necessary, I will stand by your side. Rest assured.”

“Aren’t you afraid that I might not have enough power to resist Yi Wenhan’s current position and influence?” Song Zhizhi was surprised.

“To me, the Xin family business is not that important. I took it over just because I was not willing to let it fall into the hands of Mu Cidian. In reality, I have no obligation to continue running the business my father left. Hence, even if I lose it, I won’t feel any regret. But for friends, I only have you. Losing you would be my biggest regret in this life.”

“Aren’t you worried that I might have an ulterior motive for getting close to you?” Song Zhizhi was moved.

Her initial contact with Xin Zaozao was purpose-driven.

She had known from the start that Xin Zaozao would become very strong and had therefore made a deliberate effort to befriend her.

Now, for her sake, Xin Zaozao was willing to go that far.

Wasn’t that somewhat selfish?

“You’ve helped me a lot, even if you had an ulterior motive, I can accept that.” Xin Zaozao laughed, “Besides, after being deceived by Mu Cidian, I feel that no one else can harm me any worse.”

“You’re really open-minded.” Song Zhizhi laughed.

“Yes, I am.” Xin Zaozao responded genuinely.

The two of them chatted like this.

They didn’t realize when it began, but although they hadn’t spent much time together, their relationship had developed positively, they started talking casually and stopped being polite and reserved.

After eating dinner together, they left the restaurant.

Xin Zaozao called Nie Feng to pick her up.

Nie Feng was already waiting for her at the front gate.

Xin Zaozao took Song Zhizhi home.

While in the car, Xin Zaozao asked, “I forgot to ask you, why has Xiaolang been so busy lately?”

With a disgruntled expression, Song Zhizhi said, “Yin Qin is forcing Xiaolang to become an internet celebrity.”

“What?”

“A game streamer.” Song Zhizhi explained.

Xin Zaozao was taken aback, she couldn’t believe Xiaolang seemed like an internet celebrity.

“Doesn’t Xiaolang resist?” Xin Zaozao asked curiously.

“I’m seriously suspecting that Xiaolang likes that idiot Yin Qin!”

“Really?” Xin Zaozao didn’t believe it.

“I don’t want to believe it either.”

“Actually, it’s not bad if it’s true, Xiaolang might be being like a nun, but she can always return to lay life. And I think Yin Qin is a really nice person, despite the fact that he appears a bit of a playboy, he is filled with a sense of justice…”

Yin Qin is a good person.

Just too devoted.

She was conflicted about how to handle Luo Xiaolang’s situation.

“Actually, you don’t need to worry.” Seeing Song Zhizhi’s look, Xin Zaozao comforted her, “No one can predict matters of the heart. You never thought you’d fall for Ji Baijian either. Personally, I think you should let Xiaolang handle her own personal issues. I know you think Xiaolang is young and innocent, but if it’s Yin Qin, he won’t deceive her, right?”

“Otherwise, what can I do? If Xiaolang really likes Yin Qin, I can’t stop her.”

“Given Xiaolang’s personality, that’s probably true!” Xin Zaozao nodded.

“I’ve already spoken and advised her, from now on, it’s up to her. Maybe I’m just overthinking.”

“Yes.”

Xin Zaozao smiled.

At that moment, she felt that Yin Qin and Xiaolang were actually quite suited for each other.
