Si Lin, although he issued the invitation, spoke with a tone hardly distinguishable from a command.
Jiang Moxi, not one to simply follow others’ orders, refused.
"I’m not going. Don’t you have a girlfriend? Just take her out to play, right?"
But Si Lin retorted, "A girlfriend is a girlfriend, a friend is a friend! I invited a bunch of friends to my birthday, not just you."
Seeing that Jiang Moxi hadn’t changed her mind, Si Lin continued, "I’ll take care of that blabbermouth Lin ihan for you. Don’t you hate owing favors? Attend my birthday and we’ll call it even."
"I never asked you to do these things for ," Jiang Moxi said, striding over to her motorcycle and putting on her helt, ready to leave.
Si Lin could only grab Jiang Moxi’s motorcycle keys and said, "Jiang Moxi, I only celebrate my birthday once every four years, can’t you just do this favor? Are we not even friends?"
Jiang Moxi raised an eyebrow: "Your birthday is on February 29th?"
Si Lin directly shoved his ID card in Jiang Moxi’s face, "See for yourself."
Jiang Moxi glanced at Si Lin’s ID, and the date truly was February 29th.
Faced with this poor soul who celebrated his birthday only once every four years, Jiang Moxi could only agree to his invitation.

On the other hand, after Jiang Weiwei took on the task of finding the necklace from Jiang Tairan, she dove into the search full-throttle.
She first investigated THE ONE Group’s recent search for business partners and discovered that the car system was precisely what the Jiang Family’s business departnt had been following up on.
However, the Jiang Family’s background wasn’t prominent; standing out amongst the competing companies would be as difficult as reaching the heavens.
But if they could help Lady Suchen find the necklace, the odds of partnership would change drastically.
So if she, Jiang Weiwei, could actually find this necklace, she would definitely be the great hero of the Jiang Family.
By then, neither Jiang Tairan nor Jiang Guosheng would dare to bla her for the incidents during the celebration banquet.
Moreover, they would start treating her, Jiang Weiwei, like a revered ancestor...
At the thought of that scene, Jiang Weiwei was brimming with excitent and her search for the necklace was filled with enthusiasm.
For this reason, she first approached An ngze, a jewelry tycoon who had pursued her in the past.
An ngze was past forty, but well-maintained and appeared to be just in his early thirties, with quite the successful gentleman’s presence.
Plus, with the An Family focusing on jewelry for generations, their standing in the dostic jewelry circles was unparalleled.
Asking him about the necklace would have a high chance of success.
Since the piano competition, An ngze had always paid close attention to Jiang Weiwei, sending her countless flowers and exquisite jewelry.
However, Jiang Weiwei did not accept any, for she had higher goals in mind and did not fancy an older sycophant like An ngze.
But precisely because Jiang Weiwei turned down those valuable gifts, she stood out from other girls in An ngze’s heart.
Here she was, asking to et, and An ngze imdiately rushed over.
"Weiwei, I really didn’t expect you to take the initiative to et with ."
"A bit embarrassed to say, I need to ask Mr. An for a favor," Jiang Weiwei acted coyly under An ngze’s fervent gaze, quickly looking away.
An ngze imdiately smiled and said, "As long as you ask, Weiwei, even if it’s climbing a mountain of swords or descending into a sea of flas, I will not shirk."
"It’s like this..." Jiang Weiwei took out a photo of the necklace and then explained her intentions to An ngze.
An ngze responded, "That’s easy. There’s nothing in the jewelry circles I can’t find out about."
Jiang Weiwei’s heart soared with excitent upon hearing these words, but her hand on the table was caught by An ngze.
Jiang Weiwei withdrew her hand in a panic, "Mr. An, please don’t do this."
An ngze was not annoyed and still smiled at Jiang Weiwei, "Weiwei, how about we have dinner together tonight?"
Jiang Weiwei certainly knew that An ngze wanted more than just dinner with her that evening; he even planned to take her for the night.
However, she also understood that when asking for a favor, one should show the appropriate attitude, so she agreed to dine with An ngze.
In fact, Jiang Weiwei planned to find an excuse to leave after An ngze revealed the whereabouts of the necklace.
Unfortunately for her, An ngze proved to be even shrewder than she was.
During dinner, regardless of how Jiang Weiwei tried to indirectly ask him about the necklace, An ngze just led her in circles and kept pouring her drinks.
Having always been pampered by Yu Man and Jiang Guosheng, when has Jiang Weiwei been forced to drink like this?
Thus, in less than an hour, Jiang Weiwei was completely intoxicated and was taken by An ngze to a hotel.
"Mr. An, please don’t do this!"
"Weiwei, I truly like you. Give yourself to , and I will give you everything you want."
"No, please don’t co near ..."
Regardless of how Jiang Weiwei struggled, she couldn’t change the outco of being thoroughly devoured by An ngze.
The next day, when Jiang Weiwei sobered up, her eyes were swollen from crying.
"Wuwuwu! How am I going to face anyone from now on..."
"Weiwei, stop crying. It has already happened; what else can you expect to do?"
An ngze had originally planned to dangle the information in front of Jiang Weiwei to make her willingly submit to him, which would have saved so trouble.
But last night, Jiang Weiwei was so drunk that he too lost control.
Now that it was over, An ngze also felt so regret.
After all, Jiang Weiwei was a lady of high social standing, not so woman for sale.
And considering she was Fu Yiming’s fiancée, if the Fu family learned of this, he would undoubtedly be in deep trouble.
But now that the deed was done, An ngze could only try his best to appease Jiang Weiwei.
"Baby, I truly couldn’t control myself because I like you too much. But if this gets out, it’s really disgraceful. And think about it, would the Fu family allow a woman who has lost her virtue to marry into it? Not just the Fu family, the other wealthy families of Yan City wouldn’t allow this to happen either..."
An ngze’s persuasion made it clear to Jiang Weiwei: he had played her, and he wanted to keep her silent about it.
But Jiang Weiwei felt incredibly wronged, although she had to admit there was so truth to his words.
If the news of her losing her virtue while drunk was to spread, not to talk about marrying into a wealthy family, even the Jiang family might disown her.
After much consideration, Jiang Weiwei accepted An ngze’s offer of twenty million and two sets of diamond jewelry as compensation.
In addition, An ngze revealed to Jiang Weiwei, "That necklace appeared at a charity auction five years ago and was bought by the Feng family of Emperor City. Currently, it’s in the possession of a woman nad Wei Su."
Jiang Weiwei decided on the spot that she had to find this woman nad Wei Su!

On the other hand, Jiang Moxi returned to Tianqin Bay, and as soon as she pushed the door open, an image of Wei Su, as well as related scenes, suddenly flashed in her mind.
"Moxi, is this a gift from Ah Ming to you?"
"It’s so pretty, can you give it to ..."
