Chapter 367: Depressed
She would believe in the people and path she chose till the very end.
Even if she hit a wall and fell, she would just admit it before getting back up!
She was a woman who dared to love and hate. She focused on meaningful things, and it turned out that her choices so far were right.
Now, Jiang Xinyi was talking about the past on purpose, hoping that Wu Jiaoyue would empathize with her.
Wu Jiaoyue put on a smile and remained unmoved. “Are you done? I have something to do. Please leave.”
Jiang Xinyi looked embarrassed, but she could not confront Wu Jiaoyue directly. No matter how unwilling she was, she could only leave with the butler.
The butler stood at the door with a perfect smile. “Mrs. Sheng, I might be nosy but I have to tell you that what you’re doing is really meaningless.”
In front of the butler, Jiang Xinyi no longer hid her tail between her legs. She went back to being high and mighty. She smiled and said, “I didn’t come here for a particular reason or motive. It’s just a normal interaction between friends.”
Since she was so stubborn, the butler did not say anything else.
It was a well-known truth that one could not wake a person who was pretending to be asleep.

Fang Duo and Ou Ye were on the same team as Sheng Yang, but they didn’t take the same plane as her because they had something else going on.
The moment they got off the plane, Sheng Yang had arranged for someone to pick them up.
The airport was in a very remote location. After driving for a long time, they finally made it to the city.
However, the more they drove, the more they felt that something was amiss. How could there be such a winding and secluded place in the city? This place was simply quiet amidst the chaos. However, this geographical location was comparable to the heart of the city. It was quite an accessible location.
Fang Duo and Ou Ye looked at each other suspiciously.
Then, Ou Ye couldn’t help but knock on the driver’s seat. “Sir, did you get the directions wrong?”
The driver chuckled. “I didn’t get the directions wrong.”
Ou Ye and Fang Duo found it hard to believe him.
In the end, the car stopped at the entrance of a manor. Fang Duo and Ou Ye looked at each other. Fang Duo let out a scream and hurriedly got down from the car. Ou Ye’s speed was too fast and he almost rolled down the car.
“Is this real? Is this really the place?” Fang Duo couldn’t believe her eyes. Wasn’t this…
When Sheng Yang came out to welcome them, it confirmed their thoughts. This was the right place!
The Sheng family really lived up to their reputation. They had their own circles in the capital.
This manor was not a place where one could stay with just money.
Fang Duo felt like she was in a dream. Her legs were weak and her feet were soft as if she was stepping on clouds.
However, the bigger surprise had yet to come.
Who did she see when she entered the living room?
Yangyang’s eldest brother was wearing a tie and a pair of gold-rimmed glasses. He had his legs crossed and a laptop on his lap. He looked like he was on the cover of a business magazine!
Madness! Madness! How could Fang Duo, who was highly obsessed with looks and visuals, endure this? She went completely mad!
She couldn’t help but blurt out a line she often heard in a TV show. “Handsome man, you’ve successfully got my attention.”
These words pulled Sheng Tingze away from his official duties. Could this be his sister’s friend? Why didn’t she seem very smart?
When Ou Ye heard Fang Duo’s words, his whole body tensed up.
She stared at the man who was sitting casually on the sofa. Every part of Sheng Yang’s eldest brother was more handsome than him. There was really no comparison.
Ou Ye suddenly felt depressed and unhappy.
