Chapter 16: Taking the Initiative!Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Song Zhizhi soon reached her destination.

The Black Five Club was a mbership club, a place where young upper class gentries liked to gather. She did not expect Ji Baijian to like hanging out in a place like this.

The staff led her to a luxury room. The ambience in the room was a little dim. There was a large pool table inside. Ji Baijian was bent over the table, playing pool. His posture was elegant, and he looked so calm and unhurried. He did not even spare Song Zhizhi a glance and instead continued to swing the cue stick with familiar ease.

It was another man standing next to him with a cue stick and a glass of red wine who spoke, in a joking manner, "Baijian, your fiancée is here."

Ji Baijian’s long, slender fingers tightened around the cue stick. He said indifferently, "I’m not even sure whose fiancée she is."

Saying that, his cue stick shot forward, knocking two balls into the pockets and ending the ga.

He stood back upright and put the cue stick aside. He then elegantly pick up a glass of wine, looked at Song Zhizhi, and asked, "Here to deliver the invitation?"

"What I did last night was reject Yi Wenhan’s proposal. The dia reports were soone’s deliberate sabotage attempt," Song Zhizhi stated bluntly. She then turned to the guy next to Ji Baijian. "The reports originated from your family’s Yinhe dia Corp. Can you help

find out who’s responsible?"

Yin Qin, the youngest son of the Yin family - owner of the Yinhe dia Corp - grew up together with Ji Baijian. They even studied abroad together and ca back together to wait to inherit their respective family businesses. It was well known that the two were very close. That was why, as long as Ji Baijian was willing to help, finding out who the mastermind behind the scenes was would not be a difficult matter.

"Your fiancée sure lacks social finesse, Baijian" joked Yin Qin.

Ji Baijian did not reply. He did not put in any good words for Song Zhizhi at all. He simply stared at Song Zhizhi while maintaining his distance. To Song Zhizhi’s words, his response was...indifference.

Song Zhizhi gritted her teeth.

She walked forward and stopped right in front of Ji Baijian. They were very close to each other.

Ji Baijian frowned. It seed that he was not used to being in such close proximity to soone.

Song Zhizhi suddenly stood on tiptoe.

The whole world seed to go quiet.

Yin Qin’s jaw drop witnessing the scene.

Ji Baijian was completely motionless, as if he had been petrified.

From start to finish, Ji Baijian did not take any initiative, but... he unexpectedly did not pull away either.

When they separated, Song Zhizhi’s face flushed crimson.

It was her first ti being so proactive.

It was not like she never had any monts of intimacy with Yi Wenhan, but she had never been this proactive, and Yi Wenhan himself was relatively cold - at least he appeared so on the surface. In her previous life, they had rarely kissed, and had not even once slept together. He claid that it was because he was being responsible towards her.

The quiet space was filled with an ambiguous air.

Song Zhizhi wanted to say sothing, but she inexplicably could not find any words to say.

The atmosphere was a little awkward.

It was Ji Baijian, who had not taken the initiative but had not pulled back either, who broke the silence.

"Slutty."

Song Zhizhi almost coughed up blood.

She took a deep breath and said, "I just want to show you that I’m determined to marry you. And now, I need your help."

"How do you want

to help?" Ji Baijian pursed his lips.

It was at this mont that Song Zhizhi noticed the faint blush on his cheeks.

Was this guy a dinosaur? How co his conditioned reflex was so slow?

Yin Qin could not help letting out a laugh.

Song Zhizhi scowled at him.

Yin Qin explained, "I’m just lanting the fact that my friend here is so easy to convince. Don’t mind , just pretend that I don’t exist."

Ji Baijian was easy to convince?

But now that he ntioned it... Ji Baijian was indeed very resistant a mont ago, but he did not feel so resistant now.

Song Zhizhi did not bother to think too much about it. She said, "First of all, I need your full trust and support. No matter what the dia say, you and your father absolutely cannot say anything bad about

in public."

Ji Baijian did not answer. She took it as a silent assent.

"Second, I want you to ask Yin Qin to help

look for the culprit behind this news," Song Zhizhi added.

"I’m afraid that’ll be difficult," Yin Qin replied.

Song Zhizhi did not force the issue. She continued, "Lastly, I need to prove my innocence regarding Yi Wenhan."

Ji Baijian raised his eyebrows. "How do you plan to do that?"

"If Yi Wenhan is shown to have another woman, I will naturally have nothing to do with him," said Song Zhizhi, "To put it bluntly, I’ll arrange a woman for Yi Wenhan!"

Ji Baijian stared right at Song Zhizhi, probably surprised that she would do such a thing.

Yin Qin interjected, "A woman’s heart is the ultimate evil!"

"No, this isn’t evil. It’s an eye for an eye," said Song Zhizhi.

She would make Yi Wenhan suffer the way he made her suffer back then, when he sent her to the bed of Ji Baijian and make her lose her reputation and her life.

Yi Wenhan and Nie Wenzhi should not be able to guess that she would do sothing like this, so they would not be on alert. It would make things easier.

This was the advantage of living a second life. She was able to stay one step ahead in everything!
