“Okay.” Guan Tang nodded.

Guan Tang could tell that Zhuang Ning was different from before. She was very calm and aloof now unlike the simple popular celebrity from before whom Guan Tang could manipulate into destroying Ye Cheng and Yin Jia’s relationship.

With this, a thought suddenly appeared in Guan Tang’s mind. She felt a chill in her heart. She straightened her back and looked at Zhuang Ning as she asked, “You and Mr. Ye Cheng… Uhh, are both of you still in contact?”

Zhuang Ning looked at Guan Tang with a faint smile on her face and said, “I heard he’s going to marry Miss Yin Jia. We’re not the same kind of people, to begin with. There’s no benefit in keeping in contact with him. Moreover, my current status doesn’t allow me to have a relationship. It’s fine for him to cause a storm in M City, but it’ll be a devastating blow to me.”

Guan Tang mulled over Zhuang Ning’s words carefully and found nothing wrong with Zhuang Ning’s words. Relieved, she said enthusiastically, “Zhuang Ning, now that you’re in S City, you can look for me if you have any problems.”

Zhuang Ning only looked at Guan Tang silently as though saying, ‘You can’t even help yourself earlier…’

Guan Tang seemed to understand Zhuang Ning’s thoughts. She said, embarrassed, “I, I… The predicament I’m in is only temporary. It’ll be fine after I resolve it in the next few days. I grew up here so I’m very familiar with it. If you need anything, just look for me. Even if I can’t help you, I can still point you in the right direction.”

Zhuang Ning nodded. “Alright. I’ll keep this in mind.”

At this moment, the driver said softly, “Miss, we’re here.”

Guan Tang quickly looked outside and slowly opened the car door. Seeing that no one was around, she hurriedly got out of the car. She was in such a rush that she did not even thank or bid farewell to Zhuang Ning.

Zhuang Ning gestured for the driver to leave before she sent a message to Mu Chen, informing him of what had happened. Following that, she called Ye Cheng.

“Are you free?”

“Zhuang Ning?” There was a hint of surprise in Ye Cheng’s voice.

“Yes. I’m shooting in S City. Do you have time to meet?” Zhuang Ning’s voice was calm and serene.

Ye Cheng did not hesitate at all. “Yes! I’ll come and see you.”

Zhuang Ning smiled. “I’ll send you the address.”

…

Ye Cheng told Yin Jia he was going to meet a client to discuss business.

Yin Jia did not doubt Ye Cheng or question him. She had many matters to attend to after returning to S City. Moreover, she had resolved the issue of Guan Tang so she felt completely at ease with Ye Cheng. This was S City, her family’s territory. She was not worried about Ye Cheng doing things behind her.

…

Ye Cheng was very anxious and rushed to meet Zhuang Ning as soon as he could. As soon as he saw her, he hugged her tightly.

Zhuang Ning hugged him gently before she pushed him back lightly to look at him. Then, she asked, “Why are you so thin now?”

Just this question alone warmed Ye Cheng’s heart. No one in the world cared if he was too thin. His parents, his sister, and Yin Jia did not care about him. He was just a tool to them. Only Zhuang Ning only treated him as a person.

Ye Cheng pulled Zhuang Ning to sit down. He asked, “What do you want to eat? Did you order anything?”

Zhuang Ning moved the napkin and said, “I ordered your favorite ribs and fish. I also ordered a nourishing soup for you. You must be very busy recently so you have to eat more.”

Then, Zhuang Ning looked at him with a small and playful smile on her face.

Ye Cheng felt like his heart was about to melt. Indeed, Zhuang Ning was the only one in the world who cared about him. The meal they had was not just food; it was Zhuang Ning’s silent love for him.

Ye Cheng reached out to hold Zhuang Ning’s hand and said tenderly, “Thank you.”

Zhuang Ning looked to the left and right before she gently withdrew her hand. She lowered her head to hide her shyness.

Upon seeing this, Ye Cheng felt like a spring breeze had blown past his heart.

To Ye Cheng, different women served different purposes.

Yin Jia gave him power and benefits.

As for Guan Tang, her purpose was only s*x. She gave him enjoyment and sensory stimulation.

Only Zhuang Ning alone had his love. The love he had for her was the kind that penetrated into his bones. Everything he was doing now was for his and Zhuang Ning’s future. The future where they were both together.
