Stand-in Exit, Tycoon Boss Anxious Crazy

"Nuan Jie, let me put this bracelet on you."

Today, there's a brand event to attend. Due to the tight schedule, makeup was done in the car.

Xiang-Nuan, a bit drowsy, opened her eyes: "What's this?"

It didn't look like any branded bracelet. As celebrities, they were all business from head to toe, never wearing anything superfluous.@@novelbin@@

Amy said, "It's a couple's bracelet. Xia Zehua has one too. Picked a low-key brand on purpose, not too noticeable, but fans will dig it up. It's sugar for the coupling fans."

"Oh."

Xiang-Nuan put on the bracelet and took a sip of coffee to perk up.

She unlocked her phone and browsed aimlessly. On WeChat, she scrolled to Shen Yanshi's chat, no new messages.

To read the uncut version, go to pawread dot com.

They were both busy, so meetings were rare, but Xiang-Nuan would still share bits of her life with him when she could, to keep the connection alive.

The last contact was half a month ago; she sent him a photo of a new doll with eight eyes.

His reply: "Don't bring it home."

After their breakup, she hadn't messaged him again, and of course, Yanshi wouldn't reach out to her either.

Feeling annoyed, she thought about deleting him, to completely clear him out, but she didn't dare to do it; she couldn't afford to offend him.

The event was packed. Her solo fans doubled, and there were hordes of coupling fans, even banners with "Spring Warmth and Hua Blossom."

It was Xiang-Nuan's first taste of fame.

She wasn't used to so much fan support and was pleasantly surprised, even taking a group photo with all her fans.

After the event, she posted on Instagram: "Thank you for liking me."

Likes quickly surpassed a hundred thousand.

Top comments: "Wife so beautiful, I love you!"

"Whether it's Nuan-Nuan or Man-Man, I love you all the same!"

"Thank you for coming into my life, only then did I realize how wonderful you are!"

Xiang-Nuan scrolled through the comments, the fatigue from her busy days swept away, feeling loved by so many for the first time.

Ni-Man's only sunshine was Ji Yang, but Xiang-Nuan had so much warmth shining on her.

She was luckier than Ni-Man.

Xiang-Nuan's heart felt full, and she seemed to have gained more courage.

"After today's event, there's no schedule. Rest up, tomorrow night there's a charity dinner for a jewelry brand. I just secured this high-end brand for you. Perform well, and if they approve, they'll announce you as their ambassador."

Zheng Xuanlin was earnest: "This endorsement is crucial, it means you're moving up. Sleep well tonight, and tomorrow, show them your best!"

Xiang-Nuan yawned: "Got it."

After half a month on the road, Xiang-Nuan finally returned home.

Back to the house at Nanchun Bay Community, the one Yanshi gave her.

Most of her time was spent on set, so she wouldn't bother moving around when she rarely came home. She'd go straight there to sleep, all her things were there.

As she pushed the door open, she paused.

The house was just as she left it last month, seemingly untouched.

Half of the clothes in the wardrobe were Yanshi's. They had been together for two years, and although he seldom came, he had moved quite a lot of stuff here, a whole row of tailored suits.

Had he forgotten to have someone clear his things out? Or couldn't be bothered?

He couldn't possibly want to keep the house; any watch left in his drawer was worth more than the house itself...

The property deed was in Xiang-Nuan's name.

Probably just forgot?

Xiang-Nuan sat cross-legged on the sofa, biting her lip, and after some thought, cautiously sent a message to Assistant Lin.
