Picking Up Fragments

Chapter 174 Hanh Hanh, What's Wrong?

the two held each other ambiguously as they got into the elevator and went up to the sixth floor.

zhang yuhan wobbled as she took out her keys and opened her rental apartment, which was a one-bedroom unit with plenty amount of floor space.

for ordinary people working in shanghai, being able to live alone in a one-bedroom apartment was a luxury beyond their wildest dreams.

housing prices in shanghai are extremely high, and the average wage earner can't afford a one-bedroom place; most of them share with others.

jiang siming had been the same when he first started out.

this apartment had been paid for by wang jun; otherwise, zhang yuhan would have found it hard to afford it.

the place was fairly clean, but zhang yuhan's clothes, shoes, and various cosmetics were scattered everywhere.

zhang yuhan also had a job, but most of her earnings went toward her appearance. with wang jun as a long-term financial backup, she wasn't worried about going hungry.

but now that wang jun was out of the picture, she decided she had to speed up her plan to win over jiang siming, or she'd struggle to get through the month.

although she was working at yinghuan company, she wouldn't receive her paycheck until the following month.

"sorry, president jiang. my place is a bit messy," zhang yuhan said apologetically.

"it's fine," jiang siming replied and helped zhang yuhan onto the sofa.

unexpectedly, zhang yuhan's ankle 'suddenly' twisted, and she stumbled right into jiang siming's arms, causing them both to fall onto the sofa together.

"are you okay?" jiang siming watched her 'performance' calmly, choosing to play along.

"president jiang~ i'm so embarrassed~" zhang yuhan responded, her face flushed with embarrassment.

seeing that jiang siming still didn't react, she began making her move, wrapping her arms around his waist.

"president jiang, you probably already know my feelings for you, don't you? i had to keep my distance before because wang jun kept clinging to me. but now that i've broken up with him, i wanted to ask... do you like me?"

as she spoke, her fairly pretty face leaned close to jiang siming, her lips slightly parted, her breath fragrant, presenting herself as if ready to be taken.

"but you just broke up with him," jiang siming responded, looking as if he were considering it.

"hanh-han, listen to me. i really, truly love you. today, i was just too impulsive. it's all because of that guy jiang, that dog! if it weren't for him, i..."

"ah!"

"hanh-han, what happened?"

"n-nothing, i just hit my foot..."

"why are you so careless? do you want me to come over and put some ointment on it?" wang jun asked gently.

"no need... it's fine now."

"that's good to hear. hanh-han, do you know that you're the most beautiful, purest girl i've ever met? i swear, i won't marry anyone but you. i love you!"

wang jun's declaration almost made jiang siming burst out laughing.

but wang jun didn't stop and continued, "hanh-han, go to your bedroom window and look down."

"what's going on?" zhang yuhan felt a bit panicked. could wang jun already be downstairs?

"just take a look, and you'll know. it's a surprise i prepared just for you," wang jun said with anticipation. find more chapters on empire

zhang yuhan glanced at jiang siming, seemingly asking for his opinion.

jiang siming released his large hand, gesturing for her to go check.

zhang yuhan had no choice but to hurriedly throw on some clothes and dash to her bedroom.

leaning against the window, zhang yuhan looked down and saw wang jun standing outside her building. his car was parked nearby, adorned with flowers and little lights.

among the flowers were an lv bag and an elegant ladies' wristwatch.

she recognized both items instantly; they were things she'd always wanted. the combined price of the bag and watch was close to 50,000 yuan.

for wang jun, a small-time manager, 50,000 yuan was a large sum, and he had always hesitated to spend it.

this time, he had gone all out, determined to win zhang yuhan back.
