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

Chapter 165: Tit for Tat



Chapter 165

An Nuan was startled.

It was the sudden sound that really startled her.

With a displeased tone, she spoke, "What did you say?"

"I said, do you need my help?" Ye Jinghuai repeated.

Just a second ago, he wanted to test An Nuan.

But the next second, he couldn't help but want to lend her a hand.

An Nuan shook her head and refused, "No need."

In that instant, she knew exactly what Ye Jinghuai was saying.

He was asking if she needed him to deal with Tong Zhitong.

Well, she didn't know what Ye Jinghuai was capable of.

But she was certain that even if Ye Jinghuai stayed at home, he knew that Tong Zhitong was deliberately targeting her.

Ye Jinghuai looked at the back of An Nuan's head.

Every night, she slept with her back facing him.

It seemed like she was intentionally distancing them.

What she didn't know was that this sleeping position was actually more dangerous for her.

She said, "I'm afraid you can't bring yourself to harm your ex-girlfriend, so I don't want to trouble you."

In fact,

she didn't want Ye Jinghuai to stop her from being "ruthless" towards Tong Zhitong.

She truly lacked mercy now.

Anyone who provoked her, she would truly seek revenge!

"I don't have an ex-girlfriend," Ye Jinghuai said slowly.

There seemed to be some hidden anger in his tone.

"It has nothing to do with me," An Nuan said indifferently.

Right now, she just wanted to end the conversation and go to sleep early.

In that moment, she felt the person behind her suddenly turn over and face away from her.

He was angry.

An Nuan didn't think she said anything wrong, so why was he angry?

If he was angry, then let him be.

Just don't disturb her sleep.

And that night,

An Nuan slept surprisingly soundly.

She didn't notice at all that the person beside her had been tossing and turning all night.

...

Early the next day,

An Nuan woke up from a rare uninterrupted sleep, feeling refreshed.

She suddenly realized that Ye Jinghuai hadn't caused any mischief last night, allowing her to truly have a good sleep.

Of course, she didn't thank him.

After all, with Ye Jinghuai's unpredictable nature, he could turn into a big demon and torment her at any moment.

She carefully got up from the bed and left without casting a single glance at Ye Jinghuai.

If she had looked, she would have noticed a resentful gaze fixed on her.

After having breakfast, An Nuan went to the company.

Upon entering the office, she immediately instructed, "Are we going to Brilliant Media today to discuss Wen Shan's endorsement?"

"Yes," Luo Si hurriedly replied, "We've already made an appointment with the other party. Director Yan Guogang will personally go there at 10 a.m., and he has the contract with him."

"Tell Director Yan Guogang that I'll go with him."

Luo Si was somewhat surprised.

Did she need to be involved in matters of the Advertising and Media Department?!

And with so much going on these days, wasn't it enough?

"Just do as I said," An Nuan didn't explain.

"Okay."

Luo Si left.

Soon, she returned, "General Manager An, Director Yan said we'll leave in ten minutes. He asked if you want to ride in the same car."

"No need, I'll follow their vehicle," An Nuan replied.

"Alright."

Ten minutes later,

An Nuan, accompanied by Luo Si, rode in Hu Feng's car and followed Yan Guogang's dedicated vehicle to Brilliant Media.

Twenty minutes later, they arrived at Brilliant Media.

An Nuan, together with Yan Guogang, went to discuss the contract with Wen Shan's manager, Liu Fan.

As soon as they entered Liu Fan's personal office.

Liu Fan's secretary politely said, "I'm sorry, both of you. Mr. Liu is currently receiving other guests. Please wait for a moment."

Yan Guogang's expression turned sour, "We agreed to meet at ten in the morning, and there are still five minutes left."

"I'm really sorry," the secretary apologized with a remorseful face.

Yan Guogang's attitude became somewhat firm, "After five minutes, I want to see Liu Fan. Inform him."

"Alright," the secretary respectfully replied, "Please have a seat for a while. I will notify him immediately."

Yan Guogang waved his hand, clearly displeased.

After all, as the party of the first part, being stood up by the party of the second part would undoubtedly damage their reputation.

Especially in front of An Nuan.

But An Nuan remained calm.

She had basically guessed why Liu Fan was currently meeting with someone else.

And it had to be said, Tong Zhitong was really cautious.

She had been spreading the news about finding Wen Shan for endorsement for several days and had chosen the perfect timing to take the lead when they were about to discuss it for real.

Are they also guarding against whether she would resort to underhanded tactics?!

Honestly speaking, if she hadn't lived an extra ten years.

It wouldn't have been so easy for her to entice Tong Zhitong.

A little while later.

The secretary came out and courteously said, "Mr. Liu invites you to come in."

An Nuan frowned.

Have they finished the discussion so quickly?!

Yan Guogang walked in first, appearing somewhat arrogant.

An Nuan followed closely behind.

Upon entering the reception room in Liu Fan's office, they immediately spotted Tong Zhitong.

Tong Zhitong and Liu Fan seemed to be engrossed in their conversation, and Wen Shan was sitting beside them.

Their arrival seemed to disturb the atmosphere.

Fortunately, Liu Fan was an experienced agent with excellent emotional intelligence. As soon as he saw them, he warmly said, "I apologize for making you wait, Old Yan. Please, have a seat."

As he spoke, he gestured for Yan Guogang and An Nuan to sit on the sofa.

At this moment, Tong Zhitong stood up from the sofa, "Since Mr. Liu has guests, I won't disturb anymore. Regarding Wen Shan's endorsement for the commercial circle our company is about to create, I'll leave it to you to arrange Wen Shan's schedule properly."

"Don't worry, I'll make sure everything is properly arranged and won't delay the announcement for Miss Tong," Liu Fan assured.

Tong Zhitong nodded.

She turned around and prepared to leave.

"What does this mean?" Yan Guogang clearly sensed something amiss from their conversation and quickly asked, "Lao Liu, wasn't Wen Shan supposed to endorse us? How come you suddenly gave it to someone else?!"

"When did you say that Wen Shan would endorse us?" Liu Fan expressed surprise, "Didn't you just mention that there's a collaboration and you want to find Wen Shan? You didn't specify what it was for, right?!"

Naturally, Yan Guogang hadn't explicitly stated it.

He only mentioned it briefly over the phone, hoping to finalize the deal today.

But he didn't expect someone to snatch it away all of a sudden.

It was impossible for this celebrity to endorse two competing brands at the same time.

His face immediately turned extremely ugly.

Tong Zhitong, who was about to leave but pretended not to, spoke, "Is An Group also planning to have Wen Shan endorse them? What a coincidence."

At that moment, Yan Guogang was so furious that he couldn't utter a word.

Thinking to herself, "This situation has gone completely wrong. I can already imagine the kind of ridicule An Nuan will subject me to when I return!"

"Oh yes, Miss Tong, I never expected you to think the same way. What a coincidence," An Nuan remarked with clear sarcasm.

But one mustn't shy away from deceit.

So what if An Nuan continues with her mockery?

In the world of business, only the results matter. The process is merely an excuse for the losers and holds no significance whatsoever.
