After Rebirth, I Married the Archenemy of My Ex-Husband

Chapter 184: Fight back, You can’t Shoot People.



Chapter 184

An Nuan knew very well that one should never have any expectations of Ye Jinghuai, the man she was involved with.

He could disappear in an instant.

Causing any favorable impression you had towards him to vanish into thin air.

...

At the Xia family villa,

Xia Qiqi hung up the phone and hurriedly got out of bed.

Today was the day for her wedding photoshoot, and being late was not an option.

She quickly changed her clothes and anxiously rushed out of the bedroom.

It was because she had received a message from Nie Ziming, saying that he was already waiting for her at the entrance.

She didn't want Nie Ziming to wait for her too long.

Xia Qiqi walked briskly, and suddenly, at the corner of the hallway, she collided with someone.

She felt as if her brain had been rattled, as if she had suffered a concussion.

Due to the rebounding force, she was pushed against the wall.

Stars flashed before her eyes.

"How are you..."

The man who collided with her expressed concern and approached her, intending to reach out and check where she might be injured.

"Don't touch me!" Xia Qiqi suddenly shouted.

Xiao Nanchen's hand froze in mid-air.

Awkwardly, he put his hand down.

"Do you need me to call a doctor for you?"

"No need." Xia Qiqi forced herself to regain her composure.

She felt extremely displeased.

Ever since Xiao Nanchen came back, they had encountered each other frequently and collided with each other repeatedly.

Was Xiao Nanchen's presence lingering like a ghost?

Or was it just her run of bad luck lately?

She stared straight at Xiao Nanchen.

She saw that he was still wearing the white shirt he had worn when he went out last night.

There were obvious traces of foundation on his shirt.

It was clear that the foundation had rubbed off a woman's face and onto his shirt.

And the location of the foundation happened to be on the pocket of his shirt, right over his heart.

Xia Qiqi pretended not to see it.

Anyway,

Xiao Nanchen was an adult.

It was normal for an adult single man to occasionally find a companion.

It was better than succumbing to criminal desires driven by sexual urges.

She had always been indifferent to such matters.

She always believed that since people were divided into different categories,

Naturally, there would be different ways of living.

As long as it wasn't something outrageous and both parties were willing, there was nothing worth criticizing.

She walked past Xiao Nanchen.

Xiao Nanchen didn't say another word, and of course, he wouldn't try to approach her proactively.

He just stood there, feeling the coldness of Xia Qiqi's figure as she walked coldly past him.

It was completely different from a moment ago when she was filled with urgency.

Of course,

How could it be the same when going to meet Nie Ziming?

When he came back and saw that Nie Ziming was waiting for Xia Qiqi at the entrance,

The first thing Xiao Nanchen did when he returned to his room was to take off his clothes and throw them into the trash bin. Then he took a shower and changed into comfortable home clothes.

Last night,

He and Qin Jiang went to a night club to drink.

They both had a bit too much to drink.

Xiao Nanchen's alcohol tolerance was not very good, and under Qin Jiang's forceful attack, he got drunk.

He was quite intoxicated.

After all, he had no defenses against Qin Jiang.

Well, Qin Jiang wouldn't harm him.

He wouldn't harm him.

But he forgot that Qin Jiang was completely unreliable when it came to doing things.

And so, he ended up being sent to a hotel by a woman while he was still in a daze.

He didn't even know how he left the nightclub or how he ended up in a room with a stranger.

When he woke up, he saw a woman taking off her bathrobe.

She had probably just finished bathing and was about to...

He quickly woke up from the bed.

Vaguely, he remembered Qin Jiang saying after getting him drunk and saying, "Bro, I can't really help you. Let me send you to heaven one last time. When you get to heaven, you'll know how unworthy it is to give up a whole forest for a crooked-necked tree."

At first, he didn't know what Qin Jiang was muttering about.

But now, it was all clear to him.

Without saying a word, he directly drove the woman away.

He gave her a sum of money as hush money.

He didn't want Qin Jiang to interrogate him.

He also didn't want to waste time explaining to Qin Jiang.

After driving away the woman, he didn't leave the hotel.

After all, it was already 3 a.m. by then, and although he was mostly sober, his body still felt uncomfortable due to the alcohol. So he decided to sleep in the hotel.

He slept, and slept until this point, back here.

He returned and ran excitedly towards Nie Ziming, bumping into Xia Qiqi.

He sat in front of his personal computer.

Sometimes, it was really these intricate lines of code that allowed him to forget, even suppress, everything.

...

Monday.

An Nuan went to work.

Honestly.

She found going to work easier than staying under the same roof with Ye Jinghuai.

She walked into An Corporation Building.

Passing through the lobby, she returned to her own office.

The countless gazes around her were obvious and strange.

An Nuan sat in her office chair.

Luo Si reported the work.

After the report, Luo Si said, "I received news that Tong Zhitong will attend the Starlight Group's commercial district project launch event today with Celina. Celina suffered a loss at Serena's event, so there should be a big move coming up."

"Did you find out? Is the Starlight Group's commercial district construction real?" An Nuan asked.

"It's real. When you asked me to check, I inquired with the local relevant departments. Starlight Group did indeed secure the land, but they hadn't filed any plans with the planning bureau for construction. However, yesterday afternoon, I received urgent insider information that the project allowing Starlight Group to develop the commercial district was approved. In other words, Starlight does intend to build a commercial district there, and it's not a smokescreen," Luo Si reported.

An Nuan fell silent, lost in thought.

So, Tong Zhitong truly became desperate and started making real moves to suppress her.

Initially, she thought she could outsmart her without actually constructing a commercial district, without spending a lot of money, and still get rid of her. But now, that was no longer possible. It was clear that Celina would agree to move into the Bright Tower, given their relationship. An Nuan could only take a risky move and truly compete with her using an actual commercial district.

Tong Zhitong's attempt to suppress her was truly self-defeating.

According to the current development direction of Starlight Group, upscale commercial districts were not something they were adept at.

She's doing this, which could potentially lead to poor performance of the Xingyao Group!

Especially since she's being so radical.

Of course, she doesn't have good intentions at all.

Since Tong Zhitong is determined to make her suffer at all costs, she naturally intends to use the same methods to make her fail miserably.

She gave Luo Si a glance, signaling him to leave.

It's not that she doesn't trust Luo Si.

It's just that there are some less honorable means that she doesn't need everyone to know about.

She has her reputation to uphold.

In terms of character portrayal, it's better not to completely ruin it like this.
