Ao Garden Century.
Back at the apartment, Jiang Tong lay in bed like a corpse.
To say she's not concerned about today's outcome would be a lie.
It was so frustrating, she never expected Shen Anru to play dirty against her.
Feeling a bit annoyed, Jiang Tong pounded the bed and took out a candy box from the bag beside her.
Opening the candy box, inside were a few White Rabbit creamy candies.
She had a habit since she was a child, which was to chew candy when unhappy.
The reason is simple, she feels sweetness can wash away all troubles.
Like now.
After chewing a White Rabbit candy, Jiang Tong felt her mood relax.
She sat up, just about to make a bowl of noodles to fill her stomach properly.
A phone call shattered all her peace.
"Sister Tong!!!" came Lin Yangbo's ear-piercing scream from the phone.
Jiang Tong frowned, disdainfully shifting the phone a meter away from herself.
Seeing that several minutes had passed, yet no one on the other end was paying attention to her.
"Sister Tong? Hello? Are you there?" Lin Yangbo persistently asked.
"If you have something to say, say it." Jiang Tong brought the phone back to her ear, her tone somewhat gnashing her teeth.
On the other end, Lin Yangbo blinked pitifully, "Sister Tong, why are you being so fierce to me…"
Jiang Tong raised an eyebrow, giving a cold snort.
Already full of anger today, even just eating at home was interrupted.
If not him, then who else to be fierce with?
Lin Yangbo clicked his tongue a few times, teasing her, "Come on, Sister Tong, I was one of your exes, after the breakup, you treat me like this?"
Jiang Tong remained expressionless, "I'm hanging up."
"Hey, don't."
"Then get to the point."
Always talking about this and that!
Constantly digging up her past black history!
Lin Yangbo: "..."
He awkwardly touched his nose and softly said, "Sister Tong, Brother Dan is coming back from Y Country today, do you want to come over to welcome him back?"
Tong Dan is coming back from Y Country?
Jiang Tong rested her chin on her hand, replied lightly, "Then I'll go."
After all, she had asked He Wanchen to look into Li Changhui's birth hospital today.
With his ability, he should have found it out in one morning.
She should be able to know the answer at Tong Dan's welcome party tonight.
"Yes! Sister Tong, we'll be waiting for you at Imperial Palace No.1 at seven tonight!"
Lin Yangbo made a victory sign, excitedly hanging up the phone.
Looking at the disconnected call, Jiang Tong twitched her mouth.
She lifted her wrist to glance at her watch, five in the afternoon.
There were still two hours left.
From Ao Garden Century to Imperial Palace No.1, the timing was just right.
Originally, she planned to cook herself a bowl of noodles, but now it seemed unnecessary.
She freshened up a bit, changing out of her black uniform.
Putting on a simple white T-shirt, with dark gray reggae pants on the bottom.
The meticulously tied long hair was released, cascading freely down her back.
She applied a simple coat of tomato-colored lipstick, making her appear even fairer.
Looking at herself in the mirror, Jiang Tong nodded in satisfaction.
Carrying a light blue bag, she was about to leave the apartment when she found the doorway blocked.
A few workers were carrying furniture, moving it into the apartment opposite hers.
She's getting a neighbor?
Jiang Tong raised an eyebrow and then shrugged.
Even if she did, it had nothing to do with her, just another neighbor, as long as they didn't disturb her peace.
With that thought, she clutched her blue bag and turned into the elevator entrance.
In the apartment opposite, Bao Nan leaned against the window by the door, which just happened to overlook where Jiang Tong had stood.
A faint smile appeared on his cold face, his voice clear and pleasing as he softly called her name: "Tongtong…"
