Chen Yan didn't mind the little assistant's inner thoughts; he looked up at the Ferris wheel.

On the Ferris wheel, Lu Man was having fun all by herself, laughing joyously, almost like she was crying.

Chen Yan understood her grievances, her discomfort.

He also understood her current indulgence.

After all, with her pride, she was definitely somewhat unable to accept the situation with him and other women.

But love is really both a great and terrifying force.

It can change so many things...

After going around two or three times, having played enough, Lu Man finally came down from the Ferris wheel.

After coming down, she walked step by step towards Chen Yan and Xiao Tao.

Chen Yan stood there, quietly watching her, neither going over to meet her nor urging her.

Lu Man understood this was Chen Yan giving her a chance to change her mind.

However, her steps did not hesitate even slightly; she walked straight up to Chen Yan.

The two stood a step apart, quietly looking at each other.

After a moment, Lu Man flung herself into Chen Yan's arms like a moth to a flame.

Chen Yan opened his arms and held her tight, very tight…

Being the third wheel, Xiao Tao turned her head suitably and then began nervously observing the passers-by.

Though Chen Yan and Lu Man embraced each other, there were too many similar couples in the amusement park.

Plus, when Lu Man hugged him, she also buried her head in Chen Yan's chest, so although some people looked curiously, nobody recognized it was Lu Man.

Like that, the two of them embraced for a while, then quietly separated.

"Let's go."

This, Lu Man said to Xiao Tao.

After speaking, she took Chen Yan's hand and walked towards the amusement park's exit with Xiao Tao.

Chen Yan tacitly walked beside her.

The two of them, from beginning to end, didn't say a word.

This left Xiao Tao, who had witnessed their reunion, somewhat flabbergasted.

That's it?

No passionate kiss?

No intense argument?

No dramatic confrontation or emotional confession upon reunion?

Why... were both of them so calm?

It was as if they had already known.

Having exited the amusement park, Chen Yan called his assistant to arrange a car to take the three of them to the airport.

Unable to contain her curiosity, Xiao Tao quietly asked next to Lu Man, "Sister Man Man, why are you and Director Chen so calm?"

As Lu Man played with her phone, she nonchalantly replied, "Because we made up."

"Made up? Then why not be calmer?"

"Made up?" Xiao Tao looked at Lu Man in surprise, then asked, "How did you guys make up?"

She always felt like she had missed a huge chunk of the drama.

That felt like how she was in algebra class during middle school; one second the blackboard read "1+1=2," and after zoning out briefly, the blackboard was full of linear equations with three variables and square roots.

Lu Man glanced at her, nonchalantly saying, "I made a bet with him. I said if he could find me, I would forgive him."

Hearing Lu Man's words, Xiao Tao murmured an "oh" and nodded naively.

But, after finishing nodding, she suddenly looked at Lu Man in surprise and exclaimed, "Sister Man! No wonder Director Chen said you were a snitch, saying you told him the location!"

"You asked him to find you, yet you came to the place you posted on Weibo. Isn't that like officially cheating?"

Hearing Xiao Tao's words, Lu Man's mouth twitched.

Although it was true, you shouldn't say it out loud!

So, she quickly thought of an excuse, "What do you mean cheating! I clearly wanted to darken the area below the lamp."

"Have you not heard that the most dangerous place is the safest?"

"We came to Tianfu a few days ago and left. Who would've thought we would actually come back."

Xiao Tao really wanted to point at Chen Yan and say: Director Chen thought of it...

But before she could even raise her hand, Lu Man resolutely said, "You dare question me? This month's meal allowance is deducted."

Xiao Tao heard this and immediately pouted, not daring to speak.

Although the meal allowance wasn't much, it was still money.

Having it deducted still hurt...

Seeing that Xiao Tao finally shut up, Lu Man then rolled her eyes beautifully, not wanting to entertain this little fool.

After all, the boss walks, you ride; the boss eats, you turn the table; the boss listens to the cards, you draw your own. If not deducting your money, then whose!

You've seen both your bosses aren't in great moods, yet you still blow the cover!

While the two were joking around, the car arranged by Chen Yan arrived.

The three of them got in the car, Xiao Tao in the passenger seat, Chen Yan and Lu Man in the back seat.

As the car started, the driver lifted the middle partition, and Lu Man finally could show her face.

She looked at Chen Yan, speechless for a long time.

Chen Yan looked at her, also at a loss for words.

After a while, Lu Man finally broke the silence, "How did you find me?"

Chen Yan replied softly, "Maybe it's fate."

Lu Man quietly murmured, "I think so too."

Xiao Tao in the front seat: ...

Chen Yan asked, "Did you have fun these past few days?"

Lu Man, this time, laughed, "Very fun. This has been the most relaxing half month I've had in years."

Chen Yan also smiled, then naturally reached out and held her hand.

Lu Man did not dodge or struggle; she rolled her eyes at Chen Yan and then quietly placed her hand in Chen Yan's palm.

She asked, "Was Tianfu your first stop?"

Chen Yan shook his head, "No. I went to Haibei first."

"Haibei?" Lu Man was surprised for a moment, "You went to Haibei to find me?"

Chen Yan had already prepared an excuse, "Yes. With your phone number, I just needed to pull some strings to track down your general location."

Lu Man hummed slightly, "This is cheating."

After speaking, she curiously asked, "Then how did you come to Tianfu so quickly?"

Chen Yan explained, "After landing, I didn't find you."

"Then I looked into all the flights leaving from Haibei."

"After that, I had my assistant purchase the remaining flight tickets."

"And then analyzed, speculated."

"In the end... when I saw there happened to be a flight going to Tianfu, I guessed, maybe you had come to Tianfu."

"So, I took a chance."

Hearing Chen Yan's words, Lu Man hummed lightly, "Pretty clever."

She paused, "But, you did come quickly."

Chen Yan hummed, "I wanted to find you quickly. So, I bought a private jet. Then I could go look for you at any time. Later, we will also return on this jet."

Hearing Chen Yan's words, even if she was a first-line actress who had seen a lot, Lu Man couldn't help gaping, feeling it was too extravagant.

Just to find her, so he bought a private jet?

How important was she in his heart...

Thinking of this, Lu Man couldn't help but ask, "How much did it cost?"

Chen Yan nonchalantly said, "Just over four billion."

Lu Man heard this and immediately didn't care anymore.

That indeed wasn't expensive.

Given that he had casually given her twenty billion in the past, compared to that, this was just a drop in the ocean.

However, although she said that, once on the private jet, Lu Man was still curious, touching here and looking there, appearing very novel.

Chen Yan smiled throughout, watching her fumble around.

Sometimes, people only realize how important someone is in their heart after they lose them...

The plane took off, landed.

Back on Qin Island, taking a company-arranged car, Chen Yan sent Lu Man home.

The two tacitly did not mention the cause of this vacation.

Until Chen Yan sent Lu Man back to her house and was about to leave, Lu Man suddenly hugged him and brought up the matter...

"Don't think that just because you found me, I'm willingly reconciled."

Looking at the prideful Lu Man in his arms, Chen Yan laughed and touched her head, "Not at all. I know you've been wronged."

Hearing Chen Yan say this, Lu Man huffed and puffed angrily, "I want to aim high!"

Chen Yan paused for a moment.

Aim high...

Was it the meaning he was thinking of?

Chen Yan looked at Lu Man strangely, then nodded, "Okay."

Seeing Chen Yan agree, Lu Man lightly bit his chest and said, "I want the private jet you just bought!"

Chen Yan, who was worrying about how to get a reimbursement, immediately nodded again when he heard Lu Man say this, "Okay."

Seeing Chen Yan not oppose, Lu Man continued, "I want more shares in the company!"

As for the film and television company, Chen Yan didn't care much about it in the first place.

Frankly, if it wasn't for Lu Man, he wouldn't have entered the film industry. So he nodded, "Okay."

Lu Man, "I want money! Lots and lots of money!"

Chen Yan laughed, "Okay. No problem."

Lu Man: !

"I want you!"

Chen Yan gently kissed her forehead, "Hmm. I've always been yours."

Lu Man's eyes rolled, "I want you to make things clear with Yu Qiao Qiao about our relationship!"

"Um..." This time, Chen Yan hesitated.

Lu Man keenly caught Chen Yan's hesitation.

She pointed at Chen Yan, her voice full of anger, "Look, look, it shows now!"

"I'm not as important to you as Qiao Qiao! And you still say I'm aiming high!"

Chen Yan was at a loss for words.

He held Lu Man, "I promise I'll tell her. But... you need to give me some time."

"You know Qiao Qiao's personality. If I'm too direct, or if she finds out too quickly, she'll collapse."

Lu Man countered, "Then when do you plan to tell her?"

"Next year? The year after? Or maybe ten years later when we both are old."

Chen Yan was at a loss for words.

All he could say was, "You girls won't get old. You'll always be young."

Seeing Chen Yan like that, Lu Man smiled helplessly.

She shook her head, "You really treat Qiao Qiao like the apple of your eye, the treasure in your hand."

Chen Yan explained, "I just... don't know how to start."

Lu Man gave him a look, "Forget it. I knew you would be like this."

"Leave this matter to me then."

"Leave it to you?" Chen Yan looked at her in surprise and then felt a little panicked.

He tentatively asked, "You... won't do anything to Qiao Qiao, will you?"

Lu Man irritably pinched him a little and countered, "So what? If I really did something, would you not want me?"

Chen Yan surrendered, "How could that be. No matter what, I will want you, love you."

Lu Man looked at him carefully and said, "Then you tell me. Do you love Qiao Qiao more, or do you love me more?"

If it were the Chen Yan of the past, he probably would have hesitated at this point.

But having gone through so much, Chen Yan deeply understood that sometimes candor is a virtue, but sometimes candor can also be a deficiency.

So, not lacking intellect, he decisively said, "Of course, I love you more!"

Seeing Chen Yan say this so readily, Lu Man covered her mouth and laughed.

She pinched Chen Yan again, "Although I know it's a lie. But it still makes me happy."

After laughing, she seriously said, "Don't worry. I won't make Qiao Qiao sad."

"Not just because she is your darling."

"But also... because I like her too."

After saying this, she added, "However... although I promise she will slowly discover these things, giving her time to adjust..."

"I can't guarantee that she will definitely accept it."

She looked deeply at Chen Yan, "If you want to back out now, you can."

"Just say the word. I promise I won't meddle in your affairs anymore. I'll stay far away. We'll only have professional relations, no personal ones."

Looking at her gaze, Chen Yan opened his mouth, wanting to say something.

Lu Man resolutely said, "This is my bottom line."

"You've involved so many good girls. That's already over the line. If you keep deceiving them, I really can't accept it."

"If, in the end, they choose to forgive you like I did after knowing everything, then I accept."

"Consider it my bad luck in life."

"But if they are kept in the dark, still foolishly thinking you solely love her, I'm sorry, I can't accept that."

Hearing Lu Man's words, Chen Yan thought for a while.

He also felt that he was being too excessive.

He was indeed very selfish, and quite scummy.

But as Lu Man said, let everything be upfront, allowing the girls to choose.

No matter how aggrieved or how sad the girls felt in their hearts, at least they knew what they were facing.

But if he kept hiding it. That indeed was a deception...

Thinking this, Chen Yan hesitantly nodded.

Lu Man smiled and said, "Want to make another bet?"

Chen Yan looked at her.

Lu Man, "I bet Qiao Qiao will be sad, but she will accept it."

Chen Yan: ...

Lu Man waved her hand, "Remember to treat her well when the time comes."

"Don't..."

"Be like how you were with me..."

Saying this, she turned around, waved to Chen Yan, and walked inside the house.

Her eyes, turned away from Chen Yan, were already reddening, filled with barely concealed grievances...

"Wait for my good news..."
