Chapter 1221 She's been set up
On Saturday, Jiang Manman received an invitation from He Yan. If He Yan hadn't messaged her, she would have almost forgotten about her collaboration with him.
He Yan said he needed her cooperation to go shopping and have a meal together.
Jiang Manman had no plans, so she readily agreed.
When the weekend arrived, Jiang Manman tidied herself up simply and went to keep her appointment.
Because it was a last-minute appointment, Huo Yanchen hadn't expected it and hadn't planned to interrupt the two's meeting.
By the time he heard from his subordinates, the two had already met.
Huo Yanchen gritted his teeth, but still quietly slipped out the door.
When Jiang Manman saw He Yan, she said, "I'm sorry, I had to work overtime last time and couldn't come. I've been quite busy with work lately."
He Yan said, "It's nothing, don't worry about it."
The two ate lunch together, neither of them noticing Huo Yanchen staring at them from not far away, his eyes practically murderous.
He Yan felt a chill down his spine. He looked around but saw nothing.
Jiang Manman noticed his movement and asked, "What's wrong?"
He Yan shook his head: "No, how was it? Did you like the food?"
Jiang Manman said, "It's delicious."
"Then eat more." He Yan even used serving chopsticks to put some food on Jiang Manman's plate, and Jiang Manman ate slowly.
Huo Yanchen clenched his fists as he watched this scene. Didn't the other person have hands of their own? Why did he have to make you hold them? Why was he being so attentive? He must have ulterior motives!
Huo Yanchen had mentally rehearsed the scenario a hundred times, but he could only watch helplessly as the two left after they had eaten and drunk their fill.
Jiang Manman and He Yan strolled around and chatted, and the atmosphere was quite pleasant.
Her relationship with He Yan was different from that with Liang Chen. When she was with Liang Chen, Jiang Manman felt a lot of pressure, but with He Yan, they were just ordinary friends who helped each other, and their conversations were much more natural.
He Yan also has someone he likes, but they couldn't be together for various reasons, so the two of them were talking about this while they were shopping.
"So the person you like has always been abroad?" Jiang Manman asked.
While the two were chatting, Huo Yanchen, who was not far away, was acting suspiciously and didn't seem like a good person at all.
He himself never realized that he would one day be stalking another person.
Huo Yanchen didn't hear clearly what Jiang Manman and He Yan were saying. He had to move closer to hear their conversation.
He saw the man nod and then say, "I'm planning to go abroad."
"Really?" Jiang Manman asked.
He Yan nodded: "Well, what about you? Do you have this plan? There's still time to make arrangements now. There's still some time before school starts, right?"
Jiang Manman had thought about this before; it was when she was trying to escape and wanted to leave, but later she felt that China was pretty good.
She said, "I don't know either..."
Huo Yanchen approached and overheard their conversation.
He frowned deeply. This man wanted to abduct Jiang Manman from the country?
Jiang Manman had this idea before. Could it be that she's been tempted and is actually planning to go abroad?
"I've thought about this for a long time. If you're interested, I can help you with the arrangements."
"I'll think about it some more," Jiang Manman said.
The two stopped talking about the topic, but Huo Yanchen remained rooted to the spot.
So, is Jiang Manman really considering going abroad?
Yes, she is so young, and she has so many paths to walk in the future. She will meet so many people, and her life should be even broader.
In the end, he was not as good as her.
That evening, Jiang Manman suggested, "How about we go grab a couple of drinks?"
I don't know when it started, but she also likes to have a couple of drinks.
She could tell that He Yan was in low spirits. Perhaps they were both heartbroken people, and they couldn't talk to their friends about their thoughts and feelings, so they had to keep them to themselves.
"can."
So they decided to go to a bar for a couple of drinks.
Huo Yanchen, who was hiding in the shadows, frowned even more deeply. He still wanted to take Jiang Manman out for drinks. What was he up to?
Huo Yanchen took out his phone and made a call: "Make arrangements so that no bar or club in the city is allowed to entertain Jiang Manman tonight!"
What if she drinks too much? Does she really trust this man that much? Doesn't she know that men are all bad?
Huo Yanchen knew he shouldn't interfere so much, but since Jiang Manman called him uncle, he could still act on behalf of his father and had the right to intervene.
Jiang Manman and He Yan went to the nearest bar, but were stopped as soon as they entered: "Sorry, minors are not allowed inside."
Jiang Manman said, "I'm an adult now, and I even brought my ID card with me, look!"
The bartender looked at Jiang Manman's name, pushed up his glasses, and said, "Excuse me, but we feel you don't look like the person on the ID card. You're using someone else's ID, which is illegal. You can't go in."
“Where did I impersonate someone else? This is mine! Look, doesn’t it look exactly the same?” Jiang Manman even put the ID next to her face to compare herself with the photo on the ID.
However, the people at the bar were heartless and wouldn't let them in.
Jiang Manman had no choice but to give up: "Never mind, let's go to the next one."
The people in this family have terrible eyesight; they actually said she and the person in the photo aren't the same person!
She wasn't wearing makeup at the time, and her face didn't look any different, so how could you not recognize her?
This area is a street full of bars; if this one doesn't work, we'll try another.
To Jiang Manman's surprise, the next place also turned down, saying they were not open to the public that night.
Jiang Manman clearly saw one person after another going in, and she pointed at them, asking, "But what about them? Why did they go in?"
The other party simply said indifferently, "Oh, they made an appointment in advance. You can't come in today without an appointment."
Jiang Manman was dumbfounded; what was going on?
They went to the next place, but they were still not allowed in.
Jiang Manman took He Yan to the club, but to her surprise, the club immediately closed its doors when they arrived.
Jiang Manman wouldn't believe it if no one had sabotaged things in the middle.
"Are we being targeted?" Jiang Manman asked.
He Yan said, "I'm not quite sure."
But who would target her for no reason?
Jiang Manman thought for a moment. She didn't have any enemies recently. The worst conflicts she had were with Liang Chen and Luo Jing. Could it be that these two were ganging up on her?
But when did the Liang family acquire such abilities? It's truly strange!
Seeing that Jiang Manyan was constantly running into obstacles, Huo Yanchen finally felt relieved. Now she should give up, right? Why is she still lingering outside so late?
They definitely won't be able to drink tonight!
Just as Huo Yanchen was thinking this, He Yan's voice came: "Want to come to my house for a drink?"
