and damp.Though the shoes on my feet cost tens of thousands, they are just like many waterlogged leather shoes on the street when it rains.Though he was dressed to the nines, his black hair was a mess..."Jian Tong, you're so funny. Do you think you're still the young Miss Jian from before You ask what you want, and I'll answer whatever you want Ha ha."

Wei Sishan's words lingered in the air, and Jian Tong had no words to refute — it was the truth.

She followed Wei Sishan and her group off the car, but suddenly stopped.

"Why aren't you leaving" Wei Sishan turned her head to look at the woman who had suddenly stopped behind her. Her delicate eyebrows furrowed... she was still a little uncomfortable seeing Jian Tong like this. But then she thought about it... that's right, this woman wasn't the Miss Jian from before, now she was just a lowly woman selling smiles at Dong Huang's gate.

With a light chuckle, Wei Sishan withdrew her gaze from Jian Tong...Jian Tong now was not worthy of her direct attention. A timid and shrinking woman, living like a mouse in a gutter, this woman would never again be the Jian Tong she once was.

From now on, no one will ever compare themselves to her again.

"Here... there's a gathering." Jian Tong said.

Wei Sishan listened, and suddenly burst into laughter: "Hey, Jian Tong, you don't really naively think that we are really here to give you a welcome banquet today, do you What could be so strange about a banquet" The second before she was smiling, the next she changed her face: "Are you going in or not"

As she spoke, one hand deliberately played with her phone in front of Jian Tong's face.

The meaning is self-evident: if you don't leave, I will get angry. And if I get angry, I will release all of your videos.

Under the street lamp, Jian Tong's face was as pale as a ghost. She took a deep breath, "Go in," she gritted out, "I'll go in!"

"Remember this place" Wei Sishan smiled mischievously as she suddenly leaned close to Jian Tong. "I remember very well, on the night of your 18th birthday, right here, in front of almost all the prominent young masters and ladies of S city, you shouted out a sentence. Jian Tong, what was that sentence"

Oh, as people get older, their memory isn't as good. Since you're revisiting this place today, why not shout it out again

Jian Tong's face was ashen. This place...this place held the memories she once considered her proudest, but now, it had become the most embarrassing old ground.

That night, in front of everyone, she shouted out loud: Shen Xiujian, I love you! I will definitely make you love me too!

Back then, she was young and impetuous, brimming with pride. She held her chin high, gazing at him who stood out among the crowd. At that moment, he remained silent, turning away without a word. Yet, she persisted, confident and proud, refusing to lower her head.

“Looking at your pitiful appearance… forget it, don't call anymore,” Wei Sishang said very kindly and considerately for Jian Tong, “Let’s go, let's not delay any longer.” She wanted to finish the matter of agreeing to that demonic man as soon as possible... Thinking of that man’s devilishly handsome face and his straight and slender figure, Wei Sishang’s heart beat faster.

This is a club, where people often hold parties. Jian Tong tried her best to keep her head down, wishing she could hide her face and avoid being seen by anyone at today's banquet... She couldn't imagine what would happen if she were recognized.

Fortunately, Wei Sishan didn't seem to make her meaning clear. Jian Tong hid among the group of wealthy daughters, lowering her head and following Wei Sishan. They walked through the crowd, and occasionally, Jian Tong would accidentally brush against someone's clothes. She would hurriedly apologize, "Sorry," and then quickly continue following Wei Sishan, not daring to raise her head even a little.

Wei Sishan's footsteps were hurried, Jian Tong struggled to keep up. The crowd around them thinned as they walked, until finally, the area was silent. She cautiously glanced around and realized that Wei Sishan had unknowingly reached the end of the second-floor corridor.

The metal double-ring gate, looked heavy and solid. Wei Sishan suddenly stopped in front of the gate, a hint of irony on her lips, “Jian Tong, you’re here.”

Raising his head silently, looking at the heavy door before him, Jian Tong’s heart understood. Today this… wasn’t a banquet for welcoming winds and dust, this was…the Hongmen Banquet!

Her gaze fell silently on Wei Sishan's face. Her eyes were incredibly calm, and the previous fear was nowhere to be found in her depths.

When it had become utterly certain that the protagonist of today's "Hongmen Banquet" was herself, Jian Tong unexpectedly became calm... But destined to escape, what she learned in those three years was... to cooperate with this performance.

"Those eyes of yours are really annoying!" Wei Sishan was stared at by Jian Tong's incomparably calm eyes. For some reason, she felt indignant and glared at someone beside her: "Are you all deaf Throw her in." Wei Sishan's delicate face still held a speechless anger... She couldn't say why, but suddenly a surge of anger welled up in her heart. She just hated that Jian woman, the way she looked at her!

A cunning woman standing by the door, trying to sell herself with a smile. She actually thinks she's still the renowned Miss Jian from Shanghai's bustling marketplace

As she spoke, the two people behind her, one on each side, pulled open the heavy door in front of Jian Tong. Before Jian Tong could even think, she was suddenly pushed hard from behind: "Go in~"

As soon as the words left his mouth, Jian Tong was pushed through the big door. His feet stumbled and he almost fell to the ground.

She knew she had to play along, she knew she just had to fall like that... Only then would they be happy.

But!

No!

No!

She understood, humanity could be very kind, but it could also be very dark.

She understood, they all wanted to see her humiliation, her downfall... Not a chance!

A sudden tightening in her heart, a glimmer of resilience in her eyes... No! She couldn't fall like this, so pathetically! Don't ask her why she was so insistent today, she didn't know! It was just... suddenly, she didn't want to!

His feet stumbled several times.

Step by step, one, two, three... anyone could see it. By the fourth step, that woman staggering and unsteady on her feet was just about to trip and fall flat on her face.

Okay!

Four steps, five steps, six steps... She had nowhere to lean, no one to lend a hand, no railing to keep her from falling. She just didn't want to fall in front of all these people, she wouldn't!

All she could do was take stumbling steps, two at a time, never stopping. As long as she didn't fall, she would firmly put one foot in front of the other. As long as she kept moving, she could stay upright for a while longer... She thought this way and did this way.

Though this approach prevented her from falling for the moment, it also caused excruciating pain in her injured leg.

A woman who should have stumbled and fallen in disgrace, under everyone's gaze, somehow managed to stumble for even longer. Finally... her palm grasped the edge of the tea table, preventing a faceplant... but it wasn't exactly graceful.

At this moment, beads of cold sweat trickled down her forehead, but she smiled...Even if it was humble, so what

She turned her head and looked at Wei Sishan behind her. There was a glimmer in her eyes... She did it! At least this time, she didn't fall disgracefully according to their wishes.

At this very moment, Jian Tong once again makes Wei Sishan feel as if she is seeing the woman from back then, who was so unrestrained and proud.

No!

A child is not worthy!

A chill gradually crept into Wei Sishan's delicately beautiful features.

Jian Tong said, "Since I'm here with you now, can you delete the things on your phone and back them up for me"

Wei Sishan suddenly let out a sneer, her red lips lightly uttering three words: "I, don't, give." Each word came out clearly, enunciated with precision.which means the Boss thinks there's something fishy going on… Now you're framing Miss Jian, isn't that a bit too much" Shen Er looked at Shen Yi with some sadness:"Big brother, I won't say a word abo...
