I took a step back and nodded slightly. "Young Master Xue, please conduct yourself properly."
After saying that, I turned to leave.
Xue Ming's voice came from behind me. "Shan Shan, I will definitely explain everything to you!"
I curled the corners of my lips but did not turn back. Xue Ming, I had already given you a chance in my past life.
As Ma Yuan and I were about to leave the Xue Family, Xue Ming suddenly returned.
"Shan Shan, are you moving away?"
Ma Yuan hurriedly pushed me into the car, and with a press of the accelerator, the driver sped away from the Xue Family. We didn’t give Xue Ming a chance to confirm the couple's attitude towards me.
Once we reached outside the community, we spotted Lin Shuqin.
Lin Shuqin took off her sunglasses, her expression somewhat disdainful. "Cui Shan, long time no see."
I nodded slightly. "Miss Lin, is there something you need?"
Lin Shuqin stepped closer and whispered in my ear, "Cui Shan, it was me who drugged Xue Ming on his birthday."
I looked at her calmly. "So what?"
Lin Shuqin smiled and said, "Xue Ming is just a blockhead; no matter how I try to seduce him, he never bites."
"But honestly, I don’t really like him."
"My dad told me that as long as I can marry Xue Ming, even if he’s useless, the Xue Family will still take care of our Lin family."
I smiled but remained silent.
What was so good about marrying Xue Ming?
Of course, it was the wealth and social status of the Xue Family.
Unfortunately, I had already suffered through that pain.
Lin Shuqin thought I would be kicked out of the Xue Family like in my past life, but she didn’t know that I had been reborn.
She thought she had won but didn’t realize that Xue Ming was actually the victim in this situation.
Hearing Lin Shuqin's words, Ma Yuan couldn't help but exclaim, "Shan Shan, what you said makes a lot of sense."
"How can someone suddenly become good or suddenly become bad?"
I smiled and remained silent.
Four years later, Ma Yuan and I graduated from our undergraduate studies.
We chose not to pursue further education but instead decided to start a business.
I sold the watch that Xue Ming had given me to fund our startup.
Our operations went smoothly, and with the application of many methods from my past life, the company thrived.
At the bidding site, I encountered Xue Ming again.
I was surprised to see him there.
In the parking lot, Xue Ming caught up with me.
"Shan Shan."
I nodded slightly, "Mr. Xue, is there something you need?"
Xue Ming took a deep breath, "I’m sorry for what I did to you."
I chuckled lightly, "Mr. Xue, you've said that many times already."
Xue Ming lowered his head, "This time, I truly realize my mistake."
I raised an eyebrow, "Mr. Xue, please have some self-respect."
Xue Ming's eyes reddened slightly, "Shan Shan, I know you're still upset with me, but this time I'm serious."
I smiled again and chose not to respond.
Xue Ming looked at me deeply for a moment before turning to leave.
When I returned to the company, Ma Yuan immediately approached me. "Shan Shan, the Xue Family is also participating in the bidding!"
I nodded slightly, "I know."
Ma Yuan seemed anxious, "What should we do? Can we compete with the Xue Family?"
I smiled reassuringly, "Don't worry; we will definitely win."
Ma Yuan looked a bit surprised. "How did you know?"
I replied softly, "Because the Xue Family has already fallen from grace."
Ma Yuan suddenly understood. "No wonder the Xue Family is so eager to seize this project."
I smiled but said nothing.
Uncle Xue was a cunning old fox; in my previous life, he had relied on this project to regain his footing. In this life, without my help, he had aged ten years, and the Xue Family had long since fallen from its peak.
When the bidding results were announced, it turned out that we had indeed won.
As I walked out of the venue, Xue Ming intercepted me in the parking lot.
"Shan Shan."
I nodded slightly. "Mr. Xue, is there something you need?"
Xue Ming took a deep breath. "Shan Shan, I truly realize my mistake this time."
I smiled again. "Mr. Xue, please withdraw from the bidding, alright?"
Xue Ming was taken aback. "What did you say?"
I repeated with a smile, "Mr. Xue, please withdraw from the bidding."
