After a few days, Liu Jian had not appeared in front of Qiu Mowen. His secretary informed Qiu Mowen that Liu Jian was unwell and resting at home.
However, when Qiu Mowen visited Liu Jian's villa, Old Li told him that Liu Jian had not been home for a long time.
Qiu Mowen had called his mobile phone several times; the call connected quickly, but all he could hear was a cacophony of noise—loud dance music, people shouting, and glasses clinking—yet there was no sign of Liu Jian's voice.
In short, Liu Jian had disappeared.
After learning that Qiu Hai was Qiu Mowen, and after giving him some heartfelt advice, he vanished...
Finally, on a pitch-black night, Kedan's call brought him some hope. "You're looking for Liu Jian? He's at the nightclub. It's been a while. Worried he might get into trouble? Don't worry, my people have been keeping an eye on him!"
"Is he okay?" Qiu Mowen took a sip of coffee. When he looked up, he saw Old Cheng making a gesture to welcome Autumn Wind from the courtyard into the living room. Just as Old Cheng was about to greet Autumn Wind, Autumn Wind made a "shh" gesture and pointed at Qiu Hai, who was on the phone.
Old Cheng understood and invited Autumn Wind to the sofa before exiting the living room.
The servants discreetly withdrew, leaving only Qiu Mowen and Autumn Wind in the spacious hall. Qiu Mowen's voice echoed in the empty living room, "Where is he now?"
On the other end of the line, Kedan chuckled, "What? You still want to see him? Forget it; he's currently enjoying himself with the 'Nightclub Queen' Erin! You shouldn't disrupt their good time!"
"What’s going on?" Qiu Mowen frowned slightly. He gently pulled Autumn Wind's hand and whispered his inquiry.
Kedan laughed heartily. "What's going on? He found a new girlfriend! Oh, it seems something is about to happen!" After expressing his surprise, Kedan continued.
Qiu Mowen anxiously pressed for details. "What happened?"
Kedan murmured, "Why is Jolie here... No, no, it should be your biological sister..." Kedan spoke with a teasing tone. "It seems something is happening; do you want to come watch? My dear Mr. Qiu Hai!"
Qiu Mowen glanced sideways at Autumn Wind, who was staring at him. Leaning back slightly, he smiled and said, "No thanks; I think it's best if I stay out of such an interesting show!"
"Alright, I'll go take a look!" Kedan said before hanging up the phone.
Qiu Mowen placed his phone on the table in front of him and embraced Autumn Wind. A wave of guilt surged within him, and he forced a bitter smile as he looked at Autumn Wind. "It's so late, why are you here?"
Autumn Wind leaned against Qiu Mowen's chest, her hands fidgeting. "I have something to tell you! It's about what happened with Liu Jian in Jinan..." She wanted to continue, but when her eyes met Qiu Mowen's, she found herself unable to go on.
Qiu Mowen smiled gently. "It's all in the past, there's no need... Besides, Liu Jian is doing well now. Let's not dwell on the past!"
Autumn Wind bit her lower lip and lowered her head, falling silent.
Qiu Mowen's hand gently brushed through Autumn Wind's long hair. His heart raced intensely, a voice within him strongly indicating that his identity was about to be revealed.
Jolie walked out of the parking lot and saw an unread call on her phone. Qiu Hai? Why did he suddenly think to call me? Ever since Qiu Hai had the car accident in America, their sibling relationship had deteriorated sharply. She even felt as if the Qiu Hai who constantly appeared before her was not her brother.
The nightclub security recognized Jolie and respectfully let her in. Ever since the rumors about Jolie and Huang Zihe broke out, the nightclub's business had skyrocketed, making Jolie a VIP figure there.
A familiar public relations staff member rushed over to Jolie and whispered something in her ear. Jolie's expression suddenly changed dramatically as she followed the staff member straight to a private room in the northeast corner of the hall.
Seeing a woman rushing in with an imposing demeanor, the black-clad security immediately blocked her way. However, upon recognizing it was Jolie, they instantly became respectful. "Sister Qiu, did you come to the wrong room? Your name isn't on tonight's reservation list."
Jolie shot a flirtatious glance and walked in while sternly saying, "Just because my name isn't there doesn't mean I can't enter! There’s nowhere in Taipei that I, Jolie, can't go!"
The security attempted to stop her but it was too late; Jolie had already broken through and charged straight into the private room.
Liu Jian was comfortably leaning on the sofa with several brightly dressed women beside him, but none of them showed any intimacy towards him.
The colorful neon lights flickered across his body and face. When he saw Jolie enter, he slightly stretched his neck and glanced at her before quickly averting his gaze, staring blankly at the spinning neon lights.
Jolie hurried over and anxiously asked, "Jaes, what's wrong? What happened?" She shook Liu Jian's arm forcefully with her delicate hands, but Liu Jian showed no reaction, continuing to gaze blankly at the rotating neon lights.
"Say something!" Her hands lingered on his arm for a moment before sliding up to cup his face, trying to turn it towards her. However, Liu Jian's neck remained stiff as steel; he refused to lower his head.
A woman's voice came from behind, "You shameless woman, what are you doing!" Accompanying the voice, a woman in a strap dress rushed up behind Jolie, grabbed her, and slapped her hard, "Smack..."
The sudden appearance of the woman and the sharp slap left Jolie dazed, staggering back a few steps. She barely steadied herself, covering her stinging cheek with her hand, looking at the woman in front of her in terror. After a moment, she managed to speak, "You..."
Kedan's people had already appeared at the door. Jolie glanced at the man in charge; he was a familiar face. She calmed herself slightly and extended her slender finger to point at the woman's nose, "You dare to hit me!"
Irene showed no signs of fear. "Whoever touches my people, I will hit them!" She crossed her arms and puffed out her chest, looking proudly at Liu Jian.
As the sting on her cheek gradually subsided, Jolie lowered her hand, placed her hands on her hips, and stood in front of Irene, snorting coldly through her nose, "Hmph... your people? Where does it say they are your people? I think you deserve a beating!" Her tone was fierce, showing no intention of backing down.
This time Irene did not meet her gaze directly; she took a step back. Jolie's face immediately revealed a smug smile. Then a melodious and delicate voice echoed in the private room as Irene began to act coy towards Liu Jian, "Jaes... look, someone is bullying me!" Irene exaggeratedly stomped her foot as if she were a wronged wife.
Then she threw herself into Liu Jian's arms, her hands exploring his chest through his thin shirt. "Someone is bullying me; what should I do?"
Irene's exaggerated actions instantly sank Jolie's previously triumphant mood. She took a deep breath and looked at Liu Jian, hoping he would become furious and loudly scold the woman who had dared to touch him.
The neon lights flickered again, casting shadows on Jolie's face and leaving a dark hue on Liu Jian's face. After several exchanges of glances, Liu Jian finally reacted. He straightened up first and looked at Jolie. Excitedly, she stepped forward, trembling as she was about to speak when Liu Jian turned his face toward Irene.
"Baby, don't be afraid!" He pulled Irene closer and gently kissed her flowing hair.
Irene leaned into him and pouted playfully again, "I'm scared; this woman is so fierce!" She exaggeratedly moved closer to Liu Jian's lips without looking back at Jolie but pointed at her with her slender finger.
Irene's behavior completely enraged Jolie. She raised her hand and swept all the bottles and fruit platters off the table with a loud crash. "What are you pretending to be pure for?" After that, she stepped onto the table and stood on top.
Irene shrank back into Liu Jian's embrace in fright, pressing tightly against him with a look of grievance on her face. Her hands clutched Liu Jian's arm tightly. "So fierce! Who is this woman?" Irene did not recognize Jolie; she just didn't know the relationship between Jolie and Liu Jian.
Liu Jian's lips curled slightly as he brushed Irene's long hair aside and whispered, "Just one of my admirers."
Liu Jian's voice was soft but still reached Jolie's ears. An admirer? Is that how I am seen in his eyes? Angrily stomping her foot, she lost balance in her heel and fell straight down with an "Ouch."
During the fall, Jolie miraculously exerted force from her waist, changing the direction of her fall and heading straight towards Erin and Liu Jian.
Erin, curled up in Liu Jian's arms, felt a shadow rushing towards her. She turned to look and saw Jolie's body coming directly at her, pinning her down.
Before the two women could scream, Liu Jian let out a pained cry and exerted all his strength to pull himself out from beneath them.
Immediately after, there were three loud crashes: "bang," "bang," and "clang," as Jolie and Erin were thrown to the ground, and the table in front of the sofa was also knocked over.
Kedan led his subordinates in, only to find a mess on the floor, with two beautiful women sprawled out and Liu Jian's face flushed. He suddenly burst into laughter, stepping over the debris on the ground and walking up to Liu Jian. "Ah, it seems I've missed quite a show. Oh, who are these two on the floor... Mr. Liu, could you introduce them to me?"
Kedan's words were laced with mockery; anyone could tell it was a joke. However, to everyone's surprise, Liu Jian responded seriously, pointing at Jolie: "She is my ex-girlfriend!" Then pointing at Erin, "She is my current girlfriend!"
Liu Jian's serious response caught Kedan off guard. He had intended to mock him but realized this topic couldn't continue. So he put away his playful demeanor. "Since it's such a dramatic scene with old flames and new loves, it wouldn't be appropriate for me to interrupt..."
He crossed his arms and surveyed the room. "Such a terrible environment isn't suitable for reminiscing. Someone, please... get Mr. Liu a better room for tonight; all expenses will be on me!"
Liu Jian's mouth twitched slightly with a bitter smile. "Thank you, Mr. Ke!"
He suddenly felt a bit regretful; if he hadn't let Kedan investigate the fingerprints, perhaps he wouldn't be suffering like this now!
