Sheng Yang smiled. “Interesting…”

“What do you know?!” Tong Xieyi lost control of her emotions and suddenly stood up with her hand on the table, her face filled with indignation. “People like you are born winners. Have you ever tasted the feeling of being useless no matter how hard you try?”

“Is that so? How do you know I haven’t tasted it?”

Sheng Yang hadn’t forgotten that in her previous life, she had the desire to learn and do everything, but her body wasn’t strong enough. She could only lie in a small room that was comparable to a cage day and night. That life didn’t last one or two days but year after year…

Tong Xieyi looked at Sheng Yang in surprise. According to the information she had, everything had been going smoothly for Sheng Yang since she was found by her family, but why didn’t her expression show any signs of cracking?

Sheng Yang felt that she and Tong Xieyi weren’t close enough to share their past and secrets, so her amber eyes flickered slightly. She just casually mentioned it and didn’t plan to elaborate.

Hence, Tong Xieyi instantly believed that Sheng Yang was lying to her. She smiled casually. It was just a small trick to gain her trust.

She knew why Sheng Yang had asked her to come today. She was confident that her master wouldn’t lose to Sheng Yang, so even though she knew Sheng Yang’s motive, she wasn’t afraid at all. She sat down openly and looked at Sheng Yang. “Let’s begin.”

“How do you know it hasn’t started?”

When Tong Xieyi heard Sheng Yang say this, she was instantly stunned. Then, she was shocked to discover that the tea in her hand was cold. No, to be precise, she couldn’t tell if the tea was cold or hot.

Her pupils constricted. When did she start the game?

This was too scary…

Had she been hypnotized?

Fear of the unknown made her grip on the teacup tighten silently, and she bit her lower lip hard.

This was caused by her own personality. Although the Tong family had always thought highly of her, because of Tong Ang’s strictness, she had never been confident in herself.

Sheng Yang looked at her quietly. No matter how deeply hypnotized she was, she couldn’t escape her nature. One’s personality couldn’t be changed.

This was also one of the reasons why Sheng Yang used it as a breakthrough point.

…

An hour passed, then two hours. Yi Juncheng and Lan Ran were still waiting patiently outside the door. Lan Ran was anxious, and it was reflected in how he acted. He looked at Yi Juncheng. The man had always said that he was confident, but he had looked at his watch numerous times now. He only said those words to comfort Sheng Yang, right?

How could he not be worried or afraid?

Although Lan Ran had never been in a relationship, he had seen others in a relationship.

Hence, Lan Ran walked over. After all, Yi Juncheng was his friend’s husband-to-be. Since Sheng Yang wasn’t around, he would help comfort him.

However, Yi Juncheng had already sensed that someone was walking toward him from behind. He suddenly turned around. Lan Ran saw his gaze in an instant and was instantly stunned.

What kind of gaze was this? It was so heavy, oppressive, and suffocating due to intense worry.

In that case, it was useless no matter who tried to persuade him.

At this moment, the door creaked open and someone walked out. Lan Ran clearly saw a flash of light in the man’s peach blossom eyes. He quickly walked forward…
