Heaven Bestowed Me a Second Chance
老天賜我重來一次
Synopsis
After her rebirth, Jiang Nuoning did three things.
First, she laid out the evidence of Su Yi’s affair on the coffee table, piece by piece. Second, when the woman said, “Let’s break up,” she replied with a single word: “Okay.” Third, she knocked on Shen Nianwei’s door.
The first two were for revenge. The third, she didn’t know, would change everything.
Who was Shen Nianwei? The heir to Rongshang Group, a figure so formidable that no one in the business world dared to cross her. She was cold and noble, like a white jade statue meant only to be admired from afar.
Jiang Nuoning had always believed that this woman was born without desire.
Until that night, when Shen Nianwei brought her back to her apartment.
She feigned sleep. A warm towel slid from her forehead to her jaw, fingers brushing her earlobe and lingering for a long time.
Then, the mattress sank. Something soft, carrying the scent of mint, landed on her forehead.
“Tomorrow… will you forget everything again?”
Shen Nianwei’s voice was low and husky, suppressed deep in her throat. It was as if she were asking Jiang Nuoning, and as if she were asking the countless lonely, wandering nights of the past twelve years.
Beneath the covers, Jiang Nuoning’s eyelashes trembled like sifting wheat.
Later, she saw the search history on Shen Nianwei’s computer:
“How to control my own desires”
“Can friends kiss?”
“What to do when you can’t take it anymore after being flirted with by someone you like”
Every single one was searched for in the early hours of the morning.
Jiang Nuoning closed the laptop, walked over, and straddled her lap.
“Sister,” she leaned down, her lips brushing against Shen Nianwei’s ear, her breathy voice curling inside, “couldn’t you have just asked me those questions directly?”
