CHAPTER 329: CHAPTER 329: MAKE DO FOR ONE NIGHT AT YOUR APARTMENT

The boy looked up and glanced at the name above the private room, unable to suppress a frown.

Before coming, his girlfriend An Yue had mentioned that this clubhouse was of very high class, and many of C City’s elites and celebrities were members here.

The deeper inside the private rooms were, the higher the fees.

And the room that Fang Jing just entered was obviously a VIP lounge.

It was common knowledge that those who could reserve a VIP lounge here were either exceptionally wealthy or of noble status, considering the minimum membership fee was over a hundred thousand a year, and for premium members, it could be several hundred thousand.

Even An Yue managed to book the most basic private room only because of her dad’s connections.

But how had that girl managed to get into a VIP lounge?

Moreover, the look of the service staff at the door clearly suggested they recognized her.

The boy retracted his gaze and asked the service staff by the door, "Could I ask if there is anyone else inside the room?"

The staff at the door gave him a glance and said, "I’m sorry, this involves the privacy of our guests, and I’m not at liberty to reveal that."

He stared at the private room persistently for a long time before finally turning to leave.

Inside the room, everyone looked at Fang Jing, who had returned so soon, and couldn’t help but ask, "Jingjing, are you okay?"

"I’m fine," Fang Jing shook her head.

"It’s just... I never expected him to be such a person. I don’t blame him for choosing someone else, but after already being with another, he had the audacity to suggest that I wait for him."

Fortunately, she hadn’t fallen too deeply, and had managed to see his true colors in time.

It wasn’t a wasted trip after all.

Still, a certain depression was hard to shake off.

She struggled to accept that the senior she had liked for so long could be such a person.

"As expected, shamelessly thick-faced," the others couldn’t help but sigh upon hearing this.

Not surprising from someone willing to trade emotions for advancement, it seemed nothing they did would come as unexpected.

"Okay, now that you see him for who he is, you can let go completely. Besides, it’s a blessing that you two weren’t together,—better than having him leave you for his future prospects after getting together," Shen Weiyi consoled her.

Yan Xiao Yue nodded in agreement.

"You’re right." Fang Jing collected her emotions; such a person truly wasn’t worth her sorrow.

"Let’s hurry and return the clothes!" Only now had she realized how expensive the clothes she was wearing were, not to mention the shoes and necklace, which were undoubtedly pricey as well.

It would be terrible if she damaged them!

"Alright," Shen Weiyi didn’t mention the option of gifting the clothes to her.

There’s a fine line when helping others; giving too much can often result in ingratitude, sometimes turning goodwill into bad.

After returning the clothes at the styling room, Shen Tan drove Fang Jing and Yan Xiao Yue back to the dormitory, then looked at Shen Weiyi, "And you? Where shall I drop you?"

"I’ll crash at your place tonight!" With morning classes the next day, Shen Weiyi didn’t want to bother commuting; driving from the villa to the school took an hour,—she’d rather get some extra sleep.

Returning to the apartment rented by Sheng Ting was also an option, but she didn’t want the hassle; after all, whether Sheng Ting was present or not, it made no difference where she stayed.

Plus, she hadn’t had a heart-to-heart sleepover with Shen Tan in a long time.

"Sure!" Shen Tan started the car and asked her, "Any news from your uncle?"

Upon hearing of Shen Juanzhi’s plane disappearance, Shen Tan reached out to Shen Weiyi right away; he had visited her thereafter and even stayed with her at the villa for a night.

Shen Juanzhi not boarding the flight was a secret Shen Weiyi kept from the rest of the Shen Family, but not from Shen Tan.

"Secretary Jiang found a lead, but they haven’t located him yet."
