Xu Youning looked directly into Kang Ruicheng's eyes, his tone was extremely strong, and there was no room for negotiation at all.

It seemed that if Kang Ruicheng did not agree to her, she would also reject Kang Ruicheng.

What Xu Youning didn't know was that she had already touched Kang Ruicheng's bottom line.

Su Jianan and Mu Sijue were friends. Kang Ruicheng asked Xu Youning to contact Su Jianan, which was equivalent to tacitly approving her to contact Mu Sijue.

Kang Ruicheng's possessiveness towards Xu Youning was almost abnormal. To him, this was an extremely arrogant provocation.

Kang Ruicheng's eyes narrowed to a slit, and there were waves in his eyes that could almost engulf a person: "Aning, why do you have to meet Su Jian'an? I really want to know the reason!"

"..." Xu Youning paused for two seconds before speaking, his voice full of weakness, or despair, "Since you want to know, I don't mind telling you -"

Kang Ruicheng's expression suddenly turned ferocious, and he growled: "Then tell me!"

Xu Youning seemed to be used to Kangruicheng's outbursts from time to time. He remained unmoved and stated calmly: "After my grandma passed away, Jian An and Brother Yicheng were my last relatives in this world. Xiao Xi is pregnant, and I don't want to

I know if Brother Yicheng will come. So, I want to say goodbye to Jian An."

Say goodbye?

These two words were like a thunderbolt, hitting Kangrui City unexpectedly.

Kang Ruicheng opened his eyes, looked at Xu Youning in disbelief, and murmured two words like thunder: "Farewell?"

Xu Youning was unexpectedly optimistic. He smiled and shrugged, looking like he had seen the whole world: "After I go back this time, do you think I will have a chance to see Jian An again?"

"..."

Kang Ruicheng said nothing because he agreed with Xu Youning's words.

After returning this time, Xu Youning will indeed have no chance to see Su Jianan again.

Even if such an opportunity were to arise, he would nip it in the cradle.

However, who can guarantee that Xu Youning will be able to go back with him this time?

Kang Ruicheng received the news that Lu Boyan and Su Jianan had arrived. As for Mu Sijue... he was not on the invitation list.

However, if Mu Sijue really wants to return to Xu Youning, he has many ways to monitor this place and wait for opportunities to act.

Even if Mu Sijue cannot monitor the reception, Lu Boyan and Su Jianan will become his eyes.

Therefore, Kangrui City needs to be on guard at all times.

It is worth mentioning that the scope of Kangruicheng's precautions has been expanded to include Xu Youning.

Because Xu Youning's action just now aroused his suspicion.

Kang Ruicheng really wanted to check out the lipstick Xu Youning gave away just now.

Girls generally love beauty, and there is nothing wrong with a young girl being interested in lipstick.

However, Xu Youning gave away the lipstick in such a loud manner, and the girl did not refuse, but took the lipstick and left. This is very suspicious.

The security personnel in such situations should have received strict training and have a thorough understanding of professional ethics.

However, that girl accepted Xu Youning's gift so easily.

Kang Ruicheng was very suspicious. The lipstick Xu Youning gave away was not simple, and the identity of the girl was not simple either.

This was a doubtful point and he had to find out immediately.

Kang Ruicheng was deep in thought and did not speak for a long time.

Xu Youning knew what Kang Ruicheng was thinking, but there was no need for her to tell him. She could just bring Kang Ruicheng back to his thoughts.

Xu Youning said slowly: "You also know that I have no chance to see Jian An again, right?" Her voice was as sad as the autumn wind.

Kang Ruicheng came to his senses and scolded: "Don't talk nonsense!"

"..." Xu Youning was rarely obedient. He didn't say anything more and just looked at Kang Ruicheng.

Kang Ruicheng knew that Xu Youning was waiting for his answer.

He nodded: "I promise you, but I also have a condition."

"..."

Xu Youning heard himself sneer in his heart.

The commitment between her and Kang Ruicheng is always surrounded by various conditions.

They can never do good for each other purely without purpose.

This is... a kind of sadness, right?

Xu Youning thought this, but his expression was as calm as before, and he asked calmly: "What are your conditions?"

"You and Su Jianan can meet, but there can be no physical contact." Kang Ruicheng emphasized, "Youning, this is my bottom line, don't go too far!"

Xu Youning smiled: "I will fall down at any time now, how dare I go too far in front of you?" He paused for a second and then simply said, "Okay, I promise you."

She knew that this was Kangruicheng's final concession.

Of course she doesn't have to have physical contact with Su Jian'an.

However... she can't control whether Su Jianan will have physical contact with her.

As for whether Kang Ruicheng would find out, she wasn't too worried.

As long as the collected information can be transferred out, Xu Youning is willing to take a little risk.

Kang Ruicheng's face finally showed a trace of satisfaction, and he motioned to Xu Youning to hold his hand and said, "I will take you to Mr. Tang and Mrs. Tang. Lu Boyan and Su Jian'an... should be with them too."

Xu Youning was still obedient. He took Kang Ruicheng's hand and touched the pendant on his collarbone: "Are you sure nothing unexpected will happen? If it happens, your cooperation with Mr. Tang will be ruined, and I will

There is no need to know Mrs. Tang."

"Don't worry, I won't let accidents happen at this critical moment." Kang Ruicheng said calmly, "This time, our competitor is likely to be Lu Boyan. If I want to defeat him, I can't lose in the details.

superior."

"It's best like this." Xu Youning didn't know whether he was teasing or sarcastically, "I don't want blood to splatter on the scene."

Kang Ruicheng glanced at Xu Youning, suddenly held her hand, and said affectionately: "Aning, as long as you listen to me, I promise that you will not be harmed in any way."

"..."

Xu Youning looked at Kang Ruicheng in surprise, pursed his lips and said nothing.

If this was before she fell in love with Musijue, she might have screamed with excitement at Kang Ruicheng's words.

It's a pity that she no longer wants Kang Ruicheng's love.

She just wants his life.

Kang Ruicheng squeezed Xu Youning's hand, and his tone sounded more like a forced question: "Aning, you can do such a simple request, right?"

"I feel like I've done it."

Xu Youning smiled slightly, cleverly avoiding a direct answer, and ensuring that the answer was enough to satisfy Kang Ruicheng.

Kang Ruicheng looked at the smile on her lips, laughed too, and led her towards the center of the venue.

Wherever there are businessmen, there are various cooperation discussions, interspersed with a certain boss's vision for the future of the company, and the entire cocktail party is filled with the desire of capital and the smell of money.

Kang Ruicheng took Xu Youning and walked inside while greeting strangers and familiar people in the venue. Most people turned their eyes to Xu Youning beside him and gave him a doubtful look——

Kang Ruicheng was a smart man and immediately said: "This is my female companion tonight."

Others either laughed or looked at Xu Youning with intriguing eyes.

Xu Youning knows the unspoken rules of this kind of situation.

When the man doesn't say "this is my wife" or "this is my girlfriend", it means he has not declared his sovereignty.

In the eyes of those capitalists, she was just a plaything being used by Kang Ruicheng.

And Kang Ruicheng, for some unknown reason, acquiesced in this view.

His so-called "love" really made her sick.

Kang Ruicheng's guess was correct, Lu Boyan and Su Jian'an were together with Tang Yifeng.

Tang Yifeng is Bai Tang's brother. After returning from studying abroad, he registered a software development company. It has grown from a start-up company with only four or five employees to a powerful company with a three-story office building today. Most of it is due to his own efforts.

But Lu Boyan’s help is also indispensable.

As his name suggests, Tang Yifeng is personable and has the appearance of a gentle nobleman, but his eyes contain the sharpness of a policeman and the calmness of a businessman and intellectual worker.

It was not the first time that Su Jianan met Tang Yifeng, but it was the first time that he met his wife, Ji Youwen.

Ji Youwen also graduated from University A, so she was Su Jianan's senior sister from a different department. The two chatted for a few words and quickly became friendly.

While the two ladies were chatting harmoniously, Tang Yifeng gave Lu Boyan a look and motioned them to go away.

Lu Boyan was uneasy and looked back at Su Jianan who was still chatting with Ji Youwen.

Tang Yifeng looked like he couldn't stand it, and couldn't help complaining: "Your people are everywhere here, and we temporarily keep a distance of two or three meters. Is that what you want?"

Lu Boyan did not explain, but followed Tang Yifeng to the side: "What's the matter?"

"Our little Bai always runs to you as soon as he returns home, and our old man keeps talking about you lately. Boyan, has something happened to you recently?"
