“I will definitely work hard, at least not to end up with a dismal outcome like yours. Oh, and I forgot to mention, during your absence from Beijing, Ou Shenzhi and the Independent State have been getting along quite well. You might want to take some initiative; after all, you’re still in his heart!”

Jiang Linyan had invited Wei Shisheng over today specifically to discuss Ou Shenzhi. During her time at the base, she had encountered Ou Shenzhi several times and could tell from their conversations that he hadn’t given up on her.

Wei Shisheng looked at Jiang Linyan and smirked, “So, you’re saying that if Ou Shenzhi needs me, I should just go back to him? No need. I’m ready to accept my father’s arrangement and marry into the Independent State. It’s only with financial power that I can trample those people beneath my feet!”

Although she still didn’t understand why Alfredo had been afraid of Wen Xin, she had asked her father and hadn’t heard of Wen Xin in the Independent State. Thus, she didn’t take Wen Xin seriously anymore.

“So, you have a new pursuit. Well, I wish you all the best!” Jiang Linyan extinguished her cigarette with a cold laugh. She was clear in her heart; her goal was the same as hers: leaving Wen Xin with nothing.

Having reached a consensus, Wei Shisheng glanced at the time and stood up, “I won’t stay any longer. The person you’re meeting should be arriving soon.

Cultivate your influence in Beijing well. I hear Qian Meng is the most capable of challenging Mu Chengxi. Although it’s not advisable to get too close openly, pulling some strings behind the scenes is not out of the question. Good luck!”

After finishing, Wei Shisheng left the private room with her latest limited edition bag, a faint smile on her lips. She was eager to see who would emerge as the victor in the murky waters of Beijing.

Watching Wei Shisheng’s departing figure, Jiang Linyan looked at the message Qian Meng sent her earlier. Her eyes narrowed slightly; she felt Wei Shisheng’s advice might not be entirely off. Perhaps she really could collaborate with Qian Meng.

After all, the Qian family genuinely wanted to win over the Jiang family, but Old Master Jiang didn’t want to get involved in Beijing’s affairs and had always forbidden them from forming cliques.

By the time dinner came around, Gu Xiang was likely the last to enter the private room. As Gu Xiang entered, Jiang Linyan warmly stood up to welcome her, allowing them to mutually appreciate being valued.

“Why did you arrive so late, little girl? Let me introduce you. These are some friends I made while studying abroad. This is the little sister from the Gu family.”

Gu Xiang was slightly taken aback by Jiang Linyan’s foreign friends, finding them somewhat familiar. However, she quickly regained her composure, unable to remember where she had seen them before.

Jiang Linyan enthusiastically introduced her friends to Gu Xiang. However, Gu Xiang, with her cool demeanor and slow-to-warm personality, merely greeted them before finding a seat.

Gu Xiang looked around at the people, all of whom had once been very close to Wei Shisheng, but none from Mu Chengxi’s circle were present.

Gu Xiang could see that even if the Jiang family held a high status, with Mu Chengxi around, everyone knew who the real king was and whom they should follow.

This dinner left Gu Xiang somewhat distracted. Jiang Linyan, perceptive as ever, noticed Gu Xiang’s expression and could guess what she was thinking. So, she sat next to Gu Xiang and spoke in a low voice.

“Today was mainly about introducing some friends to my little sister. I didn’t invite too many people. Don’t mention this to your brother and the others; if they find out I didn’t invite them, they might pick a fight.”

Hearing Jiang Linyan’s roundabout explanation, Gu Xiang smiled lightly, “Don’t worry, Sister Linyan. This is a secret among us sisters. How could I possibly blab about it!”

“Gu Xiang is always thoughtful. It’s been half a year since I last gathered with them. I heard they had a get-together during the New Year, but unfortunately,

I couldn’t leave the base.”

“Oh, I heard about it too. It was organized by Young Master Ling Shao. Everyone who went was from Beijing’s circles. Master Xi wasn’t in Beijing at the time, only my brother went. It was quite lively.”

Gu Xiang casually responded to Jiang Linyan, not needing to guess to know

Jiang Linyan’s plans. This was all old news, and she believed Jiang Linyan must be aware of it.

“Master Xi wasn’t in Beijing during the Spring Festival? Where did he go? I haven’t heard about it.’

Jiang Linyan looked at Gu Xiang expectantly, hoping to hear from her that Mu Chengxi and Wen Xin had broken up, though she also felt it unlikely.

“I’m not sure about that. As you know, we can’t pry anything about Master Xi from my brother’s lips. They’re too tight-lipped, and I’m not that interested.”

Gu Xiang chuckled and shrugged, clearly indicating that “even if you ask me, I don’t know, and you’d better not ask.”

“That makes sense. Gu Yanzhe indeed talks less, unlike Liang Luoyu who is willing to share everything. I also heard that Master Xi has been flying around alone lately, without his girlfriend by his side.”

While speaking, Jiang Linyan picked up a piece of beef for Gu Xiang, appearing to everyone as if Gu Xiang was being favored by Miss Jiang.

But no one knew that this special favor was like a soft knife, intending to slowly harm Gu Xiang.

“I haven’t heard about Master Xi’s girlfriend. It’s probably been a while… you understand, right?”

Gu Xiang would not clarify further. The fate of the Gu family was in Mu Chengxi’s hands, and her future was provided by Wen Xin. She couldn’t afford to offend either of the two big shots.

Putting down her chopsticks, Gu Xiang felt it was about time to end this dinner. Continuing could increase the risk, and it was time for her to leave.

“Thank you for the dinner, Sister Linyan. I have some things to attend to, so I’ll be leaving first.” Saying this, Gu Xiang stood up, holding her handbag with a light smile.

The astute Jiang Linyan understood why Gu Xiang suddenly had to leave, but her face still maintained an elegant smile, watching Gu Xiang with a tender gaze.

“Alright then, be careful on your way home. Remember to send me a message to confirm your safety, okay!”

Jiang Linyan showed her gentle and approachable side, making everyone feel lucky to have a friend like Jiang Linyan.

“Of course, Sister Linyan, don’t worry. I’ll send you a WeChat message when I get home. Let’s have coffee together when we’re both free..”
