Chapter 519: Where There is Comparison, There is Harm

~24 min read 4,768 words

Although Jiang Nansun was very exhausted, she still beat Wang Yan, that bastard, with all her might, cursing him for being a jerk and not a human.

Wang Yan let her throw a few punches for a while, then hugged her without speaking, letting her calm down.

Actually, she had already calmed down before. After all, what should have happened had happened, and her previous helplessness, pain, and hesitation had all been released. Now, what she was venting was her hatred for herself for being unable to make up her mind to leave, her reluctance to let go of this, her first man in the true sense, and she was just being hard on herself.

Held tightly in his arms, Jiang Nansun's rapid breathing gradually stabilized, and she couldn't help but cry out again; she was too aggrieved. Knowing that Wang Yan's relationships were messy, she still chose to be with him regardless. As a result, Wang Yan had something going on with her good sister—having something going on wasn't the point; just before, their absurd threesome, having just washed up, lying on one bed...

On the other side, Zhu Suosuo lay side-by-side with Wang Yan against the head of the bed, looking at her good sister in Wang Yan's arms, and comforted her: "Alright Nansun, don't cry, it's already happened, you have to face what you have to face. Now you should understand why I reacted so strongly before, right? Wang Yan is not a good person."

She said Wang Yan wasn't a good person, but she leaned against Wang Yan, rubbing against him with her A-cups.

She was actually quite happy, because Wang Yan had pulled Jiang Nansun to the same position as her, so she wouldn't appear too unbearable. Of course, she was happy because she had to be happy; it was finding joy in bitterness. At the time, she had entered voluntarily, but she couldn't escape either. Having seen that scene, she couldn't join even if she didn't want to. She knew Wang Yan better than Jiang Nansun; he had just planned this. He really wasn't a human...

Wang Yan nodded with a smile, adjusted his body, opened his arms, and hugged a treasure in each arm—neither of them were big.

He followed her words and said: "It's all my fault. Nansun, you told me before to handle my relationship with other women well. I thought it was necessary to let you know about Suosuo. Compared to you discovering it yourself later, I thought this was the best situation. I remember when you introduced Suosuo to me, that day we had dinner together, you even said you two wanted to be with the same man. Although it was a joke, it has now come true. You are my girlfriend, that point will not change."

He was naturally talking nonsense, but in the current situation, it was hard to be serious. Anyway, he had already taken advantage, and he had already enjoyed the comfort; opening his mouth to talk nonsense to coax them was no big deal.

Jiang Nansun pushed away his mischievous hand, letting that hand turn to wipe her tears on her face: "Then what about Suosuo? What should she do?"

Without Wang Yan speaking, Zhu Suosuo waved her hand indifferently: "I'm naturally a mistress."

Jiang Nansun raised her teary eyes and looked at her good sister lying on the other side of her chest. She had always known her good sister's face was thick, but being able to say such words so openly and happily still surprised her, as if she had re-recognized her good sister today.

But saying it like that wasn't wrong; after all, the absurdity had just passed, and they were truly good sisters...

She was silent for a long time and asked: "When did you two start? Why didn't you tell me?"

Zhu Suosuo was also silent. There were many things she couldn't say, especially in front of Wang Yan.

Wang Yan was naturally considerate: "It was just before when I introduced a fund manager under me to buy a house from her. She was excited, and it just happened like that. Not telling you, maybe it was because she was embarrassed. Alright, Nansun, it's almost dawn in a while. Hurry up and sleep. If you have anything to say, wait until you've rested well, and you two sisters can talk again. Suosuo, do you want to take leave tomorrow? Shall we three get along well?"

"Stinky shameless." Jiang Nansun gave Wang Yan another slap and said angrily: "You are not allowed to come over tomorrow, I want to calm down and talk to Suosuo properly."

Zhu Suosuo shrugged and kissed Wang Yan on the face: "Ye Jingyan just gave me a raise yesterday and moved my workstation to outside his office, working with Fan Jingang. This is the first day, I can't take leave, I have to perform well. Strive to become a career woman, so you can look up to me."

"Okay, turn off the lights and sleep."

Zhu Suosuo turned over and pressed the switch at the head of the bed, and the light from the ceiling lamp disappeared, plunging the bedroom into darkness. The air conditioning was very strong, and a large quilt covered the three of them. Under the quilt, Wang Yan lay straight, with Jiang Nansun and Zhu Suosuo hugging him on the left and right, their legs even draped over him.

No matter how much they thought, they couldn't resist the exhaustion of body and mind, and all the sighs eventually became rhythmic breathing. Wang Yan laughed and fell asleep...

They had tossed and turned very late last night, and the place wasn't right, so Wang Yan didn't get up early to run. It was past seven o'clock when he got up from the arms and legs, went to the bathroom to wash up, and then wandered out to buy breakfast.

By eight o'clock, Zhu Suosuo climbed out of bed with difficulty, dressed simply, ate some breakfast, and went downstairs with Wang Yan to leave. Only Jiang Nansun was still sleeping soundly in the room full of hormones.

In the car, Zhu Suosuo yawned listlessly, turned to look at Wang Yan who was driving: "You are really formidable, Suosuo and I were together, and you could still get up early and be full of energy."

"You adapted very quickly."

"What else could I do?" Zhu Suosuo shook her head and sighed: "Anyway, I'm used to being shameless, what can I do if I don't adapt? Do I have a choice? Actually, it's quite good like this, open and honest, and my guilt toward Nansun is much less."

"What guilt do you have? If you really want to talk about it, you were the first one, she was the one who came later."

"It's just that I didn't tell her the truth earlier, letting her be tricked by you. If I had told her earlier, she wouldn't have been with you, and wouldn't have to be as painful as she is now. She is the one who suffered the most damage."

Wang Yan didn't speak. After all, over these many years, he had hurt too many women. So inevitably, even if he didn't intend to play with them, he was actually very thin-skinned and cold-blooded inside. There was no way around it; it was a sequela of having too much energy, and he couldn't avoid it. So what else could he do? He had hurt them, so he had hurt them. Just use sweet words and spend some money afterward to show his affection for them, let them regulate themselves, and it would pass. Even if it was a big deal, it was no big deal...

Seeing him not speaking, Zhu Suosuo was silent for a moment and asked: "Now that we are all like this, can you tell me who that woman is? Do I know her?"

Glancing at her, Wang Yan reminded her very considerately: "I think you will be sad, it's better not to look for trouble."

That's what's annoying; the more he doesn't say, the more she wants to know what kind of trouble it is. Zhu Suosuo naturally had the same feeling. The more Wang Yan said that, the more she wanted to know.

"It's okay, tell me, I won't be sad."

"Actually, you knew it long ago, it's Apple." Wang Yan looked at Zhu Suosuo, who was startled and had a face full of 'I knew it but couldn't believe it': "Do you feel it's unfair?"

Zhu Suosuo nodded: "Why? I ask myself that I'm not worse than her."

"She has self-knowledge, but you don't." Wang Yan disdained to lie; since she wanted to know, he would tell her clearly, it didn't matter.

In fact, was Zhu Suosuo really not much worse than the Big Da Da Bo Lang? Of course not. Apple had struggled step by step to get to where she was today, becoming a sales elite with an annual income of hundreds of thousands or millions. Of course, she had her beautiful relationships, but it was inseparable from her hard work and dedication; it wasn't just beauty that could get her to this point. And she still maintained her true self, not corrupted by vanity.

Zhu Suosuo naturally worked hard too, but there was a fundamental difference in purpose. She wasn't working to make herself stronger, but to meet a strong man and rely on him. Of course, there was nothing wrong with that, but her purpose was too strong, and in this process, she lost her true colors and was no longer pure, which was very boring.

Ye Jingyan had been in the business world for decades and had seen countless people. Could he really not see Zhu Suosuo's true colors? He treated Zhu Suosuo well and wanted to have a thought, to find a sustenance. This was relatively reasonable; after all, fatherly love is great. And he didn't care about anything else, paying a salary of over ten thousand a month, keeping her by his side to jump around, making himself happy. In addition, he tried his best, which could be considered cultivating her.

It was Xie Hongzu, that rich second generation who was anxious to get rid of his mother's control, who was fascinated by Zhu Suosuo. Mostly, what you can't get is the best; the more you don't let him have it, the more he wants it.

As for the flash of brilliance Zhu Suosuo showed, saying to Xie Jiayin that she wanted money and wanted to be a rich wife, she could have said it long ago, and even refused the shares worth twenty million given by Xie Jiayin. Mostly, it wasn't the truth, because she really didn't have that ability and really couldn't reach it. It was mainly because Xie Hongzu's phone call came in time, saying that taking the money would be evidence of extortion, making her realize she was too naive and couldn't play Xie Jiayin. So she said some pretty words to save face and leave some dignity. Otherwise, the gap between before and after was too big to explain.

Actually, if you really want to talk about it, Wang Yan gave quite a lot. If you just count by skin, there were many more beautiful than Zhu Suosuo. The vast number of 'outer circles' and countless internet celebrities were too many. He had spent over three hundred thousand on Zhu Suosuo so far, just wanting to sleep with her—how many would refuse? It was just that Zhu Suosuo was the protagonist in this show, and if nothing happened, it would feel like he came for nothing...

Zhu Suosuo's tears flowed down. Thanks to Wang Yan, the failure at Wang Yan's place made her reflect on herself, so she didn't quibble. She knew Wang Yan wouldn't indulge her problems, and at this time, saying more was saying wrong. She was afraid that if she said something wrong, she would get a lower score at Wang Yan's place and be kicked out. She could certainly leave, but she was still reluctant... So she just leaned against the car window, looking at the traffic outside, digesting and absorbing it herself.

Silence all the way, Wang Yan listened to the randomly played music in the car and carried Zhu Suosuo to the entrance of the Center Building.

Zhu Suosuo's tears were gone; her eyes were just a bit red. She opened the car door, thought of something, closed it again, and sat back in the passenger seat, turning back to look at Wang Yan: "Xie Hongzu..."

"It's nothing." Wang Yan shook his head and smiled, not listening to her explanation.

Xie Hongzu, good or bad, in his place, was an innocent person. After all, last night, Xie Hongzu had just offered his devotion, and he followed up with Zhu Suosuo, even bringing Jiang Nansun along—it was a bit...

Zhu Suosuo still wanted to speak, but finally didn't say it. She sighed, leaned over and kissed Wang Yan on the face: "I'll talk to Nansun properly tonight, you come tomorrow, I'm leaving."

Wang Yan reached out and rubbed her face, nodding with a smile: "Go."

Zhu Suosuo gave an "en" sound, got out of the car, and left...

Buying a cup of coffee and arriving at the company, dealing with the chattering Fan Jingang, Zhu Suosuo sat next to Fan Jingang and listened to Fan Jingang assign her work tasks.

Ye Jingyan arrived at the office on time, responded to the greetings of Fan Jingang and Zhu Suosuo, and frowned as he looked at Zhu Suosuo, whose eyes were still red and swollen: "What's wrong with you? Is your body uncomfortable?"

Zhu Suosuo shook her head repeatedly: "I'm fine, Ye Zong. It's just that I was too busy for a while before, and I was used to falling asleep as soon as I hit the pillow when I got home. Yesterday, I got off work early, and I felt a bit idle and didn't rest well. I definitely won't delay work, don't worry."

"That won't do." Ye Jingyan said: "Work is the company's, but your body is your own. If you didn't rest well, rest well. Why are you forcing yourself? Go, pack up and go back. You've been exhausted lately. It just so happens that tomorrow is the weekend, so I'll give you a day off today to make it a three-day mini-holiday, rest well."

"No need, Ye Zong, I'm really fine. I just..."

Ye Jingyan didn't want to nag, waved his hand: "Go back, I won't deduct your salary." After speaking, he turned and entered the office, closing the door.

Zhu Suosuo turned to look at Fan Jingang: "Secretary Fan, why are you pulling me? I'm really fine, just drink some coffee to refresh myself."

"I'm asking if you have a problem? Ye Zong lets you rest, so you rest. Isn't this for your own good? Why are you showing off your love for work here? I'm telling you, as long as it's work, it's painful; no one likes work, and Ye Zong understands this even more. What did I teach you? As an assistant, the most important thing is obedience; do whatever you are told. Of course, I mean serious work, not some unspoken rules; our Ye Zong is not that kind of person."

Fan Jingang patted her on the shoulder: "Alright, hurry up and go, go back and rest well. Look at your eyes, not elegant at all. If someone comes to visit Ye Zong and sees you like this, it's Ye Zong who loses face. Go, come earlier on Monday."

"Then I'm leaving?"

"Hurry up and disappear."

Zhu Suosuo laughed, packed her small bag, and left happily. But this happiness didn't last long; it was gone as soon as she left the Center Building. She picked up her phone, swiped for a while, made a call, said a few words, and called a ride-hailing car to leave...

Yang Ke's new office building wasn't far away, located in a commercial building built and operated by the Dadi Hengxin Group near Century Avenue, a location provided for free by Dadi Hengxin. After all, for someone like Yang Ke who had a certain influence in the industry and brought his main team out to work alone, he didn't spend his own money.

The Big Da Da Bo Lang sat in a small office, playing with her phone in boredom, watching the super unicorn that had become popular in just one year, Douyin...

She was just a small leader of a team, and her subordinates were all former colleagues. The team was very mature, and there were subordinates to lead the newcomers, so she didn't need to worry. Now that the company was newly built, there were relatively few projects, and they outsourced some on-site sales for other real estate companies. They didn't have their own projects, and on-site sales didn't need her to go out, so she only occasionally went to see the situation, so she was very idle.

Just then, a new message notification popped up. She glanced at it, sighed and shook her head, then stood up, opened the door, and walked out.

Yang Ke always walked like a gust of wind, focusing on efficiency. Recently, he had been busy running around, and he had to do everything himself. Seeing the Big Da Da Bo Lang about to go out, he asked casually: "What are you going to do?"

The Big Da Da Bo Lang smiled: "Going down to drink a cup of coffee."

"Going down to drink a cup of coffee, not buy a cup of coffee..." Yang Ke muttered and asked: "Did Wang Yan come? Then why go down? You should bring him up directly, just in time to see where the company is lacking and have this expert give some pointers."

Wang Yan and Yang Ke had met twice in total and drank once, and Yang Ke admired Wang Yan immensely. The Big Da Da Bo Lang admired Wang Yan's ability; if he had been in sales, he would truly be a sales werewolf.

She shook her head: "Zhu Suosuo."

"Wants to abandon darkness for light? Then she should come up. She's already there, why not come to see me?" Yang Ke looked at the Big Da Da Bo Lang's polite smile and reacted: "Because of Wang Yan?"

"What else? Look at this half a month, who has she contacted? What else could she be looking for me for?"

"Pretend I didn't ask, I don't know anything." After speaking, Yang Ke turned and left; he had no interest in these messy things.

The Big Da Da Bo Lang smiled and twisted her butt downstairs.

In the coffee shop downstairs, the Big Da Da Bo Lang ordered a latte and sat opposite Zhu Suosuo, who had been waiting there for a long time: "What's the matter, speak."

"How long have you been with Wang Yan?"

"From three days before you joined until now." Looking at Zhu Suosuo's haggard look, the Big Da Da Bo Lang smiled: "Are you dumped? Can't be, right? Wang Yan wouldn't do such a thing."

"No, just didn't rest well." Zhu Suosuo shook her head and continued to ask: "So when I joined, your clothes, shoes, jewelry, watches, etc., were all bought by him?"

"Of course, otherwise I wouldn't be willing to buy them myself. You want to know how much money he spent on me, right? Since you already know, and we are both with the same man, there's nothing we can't say." The Big Da Da Bo Lang's eyes were full of smiles: "About thirty million or so. When we first got together, I took three days off, and in those three days, he spent over a million on me. Later, he kept buying things for me, adding up to about three million. The remaining twenty-seven million...

Old Yang resigned because of Wang Yan's reminder. Using this incident, he made two hundred million from Jingyan in the stock market, you know, right? Hmm, knowing is fine. He was eating with me at the time, I told him about this, and he analyzed it casually, and I told Old Yang. After making money, he said if it weren't for me, he wouldn't have made these two hundred million, and he couldn't give me any guarantee, so he bought me a house, written in my name alone, without any contract or conditions."

Looking at the smile on the Big Da Da Bo Lang's face and hearing the number in her mouth, Zhu Suosuo felt a ten-thousand-point critical hit.

Wang Yan only gave her thirty thousand. Compared to the thirty million given to the Big Da Da Bo Lang, it was such an insignificant number. She even thought Wang Yan was stingy; it turned out he was only stingy to her alone. Wang Yan treating the Big Da Da Bo Lang like this couldn't be called generous anymore; this was purely being a two-hundred-and-fifty...

Seeing her not speaking, the Big Da Da Bo Lang smiled: "You must be thinking Wang Yan is a fool, right? Actually, I also thought Wang Yan was a fool at first. I know he only spent a few hundred thousand on you. I'm not deliberately stimulating you; you really should reflect on yourself. Wang Yan's generosity is something I didn't even dare to think about; there is no one in the world as generous as him, really. I once asked him why he didn't spend more money on you..."

"Saying I have no self-knowledge, my purpose is too strong, and my past is too promiscuous?"

The Big Da Da Bo Lang raised her eyebrows, nodded and smiled: "You have a lot of self-knowledge now. If you had a normal heart at the beginning, I guarantee it definitely wouldn't be the look you have now. Zhu Suosuo, Wang Yan is not a fool; on the contrary, among the people I've contacted so far, no one has his wisdom, including Yang Ke, Ye Jingyan, and my wealthy clients. He can see through you very easily; your little thoughts are not enough in front of him. It's just that he's always straightforward and doesn't want to exert effort; otherwise, it would be you spending money on him, and you wouldn't get a penny, do you know?"

Zhu Suosuo sighed and asked: "What about you? How did you get together with him?"

"I took him to see houses, and in less than a month, we saw six. He has a charm that makes people addicted; you should be clear about this. I didn't have a boyfriend, and it wasn't easy to find one." The Big Da Da Bo Lang told Zhu Suosuo the reason why it wasn't easy to find a boyfriend and continued: "So Wang Yan is so excellent, and he revealed this intention, and I was attracted to him, so there's nothing wrong with having a relationship. At the time, I just wanted a companion and didn't want anything, and planned to leave after he had a girlfriend. Because I knew I couldn't reach him.

However, the situation changed later. He was so generous to me; you say, how many women can refuse? And he is strong, making people feel like they are in heaven, unable to stop. He is so excellent and charming, so I changed my mind and followed him wholeheartedly. As long as he doesn't take the initiative to kick me away, I won't leave."

After a long silence, Zhu Suosuo watched the waiter put down the coffee and leave, then asked: "Do you know if there are other women?"

"There are only three, don't say the circle is small." Looking at her knowing look, the Big Da Da Bo Lang smiled and drank a sip of coffee: "We are colleagues, and you are good sisters who grew up together with that Jiang Nansun, and it didn't go very far, life still has intersections. Besides the three of us, there is no one else. Looking at your appearance, you should know about Jiang Nansun. Hey, tell me the truth, have you three been together?"

Looking at her gossiping look, Zhu Suosuo rolled her eyes and ignored her, then asked: "Last question, before meeting Wang Yan, how many boyfriends have you had?"

"Two. One was a classmate in college, we were together for two years, and broke up after graduation. The other was met later at work, we shared a room and went through hardships together, and were together for over two years. The reason for the breakup was what I just told you, he didn't believe in my innocence and thought I was selling myself for money." The Big Da Da Bo Lang had some memories in her eyes, shook her head with a bitter smile.

"Thanks, I have something to do, I'm leaving first." Zhu Suosuo let out a long breath, stood up, and was about to leave.

"Since you're here, don't you want to go up and see? Old Yang is also in the company."

"Forget it, we'll talk when there's time, I need to calm down now." After speaking, Zhu Suosuo turned and left.

"Don't tell Jiang Nansun."

"You don't tell him either."

Seeing Zhu Suosuo wave without looking back, the Big Da Da Bo Lang smiled. She could understand; it was also sleeping, so why was the gap so big? If it were her, she would also be uncomfortable. Being angry with Wang Yan, she didn't dare, and wanting to leave and never contact again, she was reluctant. The bitterness could only be digested by herself, nowhere to say, too painful.

But fortunately, she was the one who was treated well.

She happily picked up her phone, found Wang Yan's number, called, said a few words, and hung up. She happily went upstairs, found Yang Ke after tidying up her small bag, asked for leave, and got Yang Ke's hearty agreement, even saying that if it wasn't enough, she could rest for a few more days and come back to work whenever she wanted.

Yang Ke also knew that Wang Yan bought a house for the Big Da Da Bo Lang. He also envied and admired Wang Yan's generosity. Now Wang Yan wasn't a sucker to him, but a master who truly regarded money as dirt, just spending money to buy happiness...

The Big Da Da Bo Lang happily returned to the home that belonged to her, a large-area high-rise river-view residence in Lujiazui, not far from Tomson Riviera, all in the same row by the river. When Wang Yan didn't come, she often faced the empty house alone, enjoying the cold loneliness, very happy.

She really hit the jackpot; until now, she still thought so, it was really that Wang Yan's generosity made her feel very unreal. Everything she said to Zhu Suosuo was a lie...

Wang Yan was already sitting in the living room drinking tea. She sat opposite Wang Yan, poured herself a cup, and asked with curiosity in her big eyes: "Did you and Jiang Nansun and Zhu Suosuo get together last night?"

"Quite happy." Seeing her expression tangled, as if she was still yearning, Wang Yan shook his head: "Don't let your imagination run wild, what did Zhu Suosuo tell you?"

"It's just money. I think she was hit quite hard, and now I don't know where she is aggrieved. But to be honest, you gave me too much, which makes her look very little. Otherwise, in three months, hundreds of thousands, not many people can give so much."

This was naturally the truth. Some people don't spend money, some people spend women's money, and very few people spend a lot of money. What he gave Zhu Suosuo was already not low; according to what he gave now, stretching it to a year, it was a million, which was already very generous. It was just that compared to Zhu Suosuo's expectations, or compared to what the Big Da Da Bo Lang had already obtained, it looked very little.

But from another perspective, the Big Da Da Bo Lang was indeed not bad, compared to Jiang Nansun and Zhu Suosuo, she was more true and pure, so giving more didn't matter, it all depended on his mood.

After all, in other people's eyes, what he gave was a specific number of thirty million. But in his eyes, what he gave was just a house and some clothes, it was that simple... ===== CHAPTER 520 =====
