Nie Zhenbang felt a bit overwhelmed; Yang Anna had become much braver after her three years abroad. Silence fell in the room for a moment.

As he watched Yang Anna, her eyes slightly closed and looking utterly helpless, Nie Zhenbang felt his own heartbeat accelerate. Was it possible that he also had feelings for Anna?

Realizing this, Nie Zhenbang dared not think further. It seemed like he already owed too much emotional debt. Any more and it would be unbearable. Yet, considering how Yang Anna had behaved and persisted in her feelings for him in both their past and present lives, it felt incredibly unfair to reject her.

When Nie Zhenbang didn’t respond for quite awhile, Yang Anna opened her eyes. Seeing him standing there in a daze, she suddenly grabbed his hand, guiding it onto her chest. At the moment they touched, they both trembled. The strange sensation emanating from her chest caused Yang Anna to make a soft gasping noise, her breathing becoming hastier.

Nie Zhenbang quickly came back to his senses, biting his tongue to cool his heated mind. After pondering for a moment, he gently pushed away, holding Yang Anna by her shoulders, his tone soft. “Anna, please don’t do this, okay? Like I said before, you are still young. Your thoughts are still immature. You don’t understand what love is yet.”

Before Nie Zhenbang could continue, Yang Anna cut him off, shaking her head. “I don’t want to hear it. I’m not immature, Zhenbang. I know. This… this is love.

I love you. I will love you in this life. Zhenbang, don’t you like me?”

With a sigh, Nie Zhenbang continued, “Anna, can you be sure? I do like you,

Anna. But you are only eighteen. Give it another five years, and use that time to reflect. If then, you still feel the same, we can talk about our relationship.”

In reality, Nie Zhenbang himself was somewhat conflicted. In his past life, he had been guilt-ridden over his relationship with Anna. In this life, had it not been for Dong Wan and that drunken night, perhaps he would have chosen Yang Anna, promising to be faithful till the end.

Yet at this point, if he were to accept Yang Anna’s feelings, Nie Zhenbang felt it unfair to her. She had deserved better than him in their Dast life due to his disability, and now after starting anew, to force her to share a man with another woman felt even more unjust.

Therefore, he suggested this “cooling off” period. If in five years, Yang Anna could find a man she truly loved, he would wish her happiness in secret. If not, he hadn’t really considered what he would do yet.

Initially, Yang Anna, being the intelligent woman she was, seemed to understand Nie Zhenbang’s reasoning. Yet, she quickly retorted, “No, Zhenbang. I don’t want to wait for five years. Starting now, I want you to be my boyfriend. If not… I don’t know if I can find the courage to carry on.”

Seeing the desperation in Yang Anna’s eyes, Nie Zhenbang felt a sense of deja vu. Realizing that Anna was the kind of person who could indeed act on her words, he decided on a compromise. “Alright, alright, Anna. Look, I am your boyfriend, right? But, Anna, promise me you won’t do this again. The most precious ‘first time’ should be saved for the happiest moment in life. You are still young. Let’s discuss this when you are an adult. Then, I can even formally ask your father for your hand, alright?”

Upon hearing this, Yang Anna revealed a sly grin on her face before nodding vigorously. “Zhenbang, you must keep your promise, okay? Let’s make a pinky promise.”

Nie Zhenbang knew he had been tricked by Yang Anna but he couldn’t back out now. If he did, she might end up crying again and could possibly do something extreme. Nonetheless, having managed to calm her down for the time being was a relief. Now, all he could do was take each day as it comes.

With a laugh, he linked his pinky with Yang Anna’s and said, “All right, Anna. Tonight, you can sleep here. Tomorrow, we will go back to Jingcheng together.”

Jingcheng City Airport

Before he returned, Nie Zhenbang had already informed Yang Anbang; upon arrival at the airport, Yang Anna was promptly picked up by her brother.

Just before leaving, Yang Anna suddenly held onto Nie Zhenbang’s arm and whispered in his ear: “Zhenbang, introduce me to sister Dong Wan and the foreign woman tomorrow.”

Upon hearing this, Nie Zhenbang felt overwhelmed. It looked like he was going to be very busy dealing with the three women. Yang Anbang, standing nearby, seemed to be reveling in Nie Zhenbang’s predicament. Shooting Yang Anbang a glare, Nie Zhenbang felt as if he were caught in a trap and reluctantly nodded.

“Alright. Fine. I will introduce you.”

After sending off Yang Anna and her brother, Nie Zhenbang met with Zheng Gensheng and others to head to the Central Committee Office. Inside Wei Bin’s office, he placed the assessment results and report of the Southwest Three Provinces on the table before leaving, saying, “Director Wei, here are the reports from the Southwest Three Provinces. Please take a look. If there’s nothing else, I’ll get going.”

Naturally, Wei Bin wouldn’t put on airs around Nie Zhenbang. For one, Nie’s background was mysterious, something even Wei Bin himself couldn’t figure out. This man had been personally singled out by the highest leadership. No doubt then, his background must have some serious clout. Furthermore, ever since the start of the Youth Civilization Project within the Central Group, Nie Zhenbang’s performance, especially when dealing with Zhang Jue, had greatly satisfied Wei Bin. Currently, Wei Bin even considered Nie Zhenbang his closest confidant.

After briefly looking over the assessment report, Wei Bin laughed and said,

“You’ve worked hard these days. I feel at ease when you handle matters,

Zhenbang. There aren’t any major issues now, so why don’t you take a few days

Nie Zhenbang didn’t resist. Seeing that Yang Anna had already returned, it means that he probably wouldn’t get any peace in the coming days. Given

Anna’s character, she would certainly drag him to meet Dong Wan and Li Lixue. If that was the case, he would definitely not be able to work. Seeing as Wei Bin was already suggesting it, Nie Zhenbang didn’t put on any airs, he nodded and replied with a smile, “Director Wei, then I’ll take my leave. If you need anything, feel free to give me a call.”

Dynasty Club

At around eight, a Mercedes-Benz C300 carrying Nie Zhenbang, pulled up in front of the Dynasty Club’s entrance. As he got off, naturally Yang Anna, dressed in a white, low-cut evening gown looking just like a princess, clung to Nie Zhenbang’s arm.

Looking over the square building illuminated by various lights, making the Dynasty Club look every bit the royal palace.

Satisfied, Anna nodded, her demeanor much like a proud small business owner. She commented, “Hmm, not bad, not bad at all. Brother Zhenbang, your club is really quite nice. It has a feel reminiscent of those overseas private clubs.”

Ever since Nie Zhenbang came a few times, the security guards at the Dynasty Club had remembered him. This was a true VIP, the very singular black card holder of the Dynasty Club. It would not do to forget him.

Upon reaching the entrance, two towering Russian security guards immediately straightened up and greeted respectfully, “Boss, welcome.”

Next to these two security guards, there were two other Russian security guards. Just looking at their movements and demeanor, it was clear that these two were likely former Soviet military personnel. Following the front guards, they greeted in less fluent Chinese, “Boss, good evening.”

“Brother Zhenbang, not bad at all. The boss here is very savvy. Hiring foreigners as service staff, it immediately feels high-end,” Yang Anna remarked from his side.

Nie Zhenbang, also very pleased, nodded his agreement. Li Lixue’s business strategy wasn’t something an average person could match. At least, in her hiring process, Li Lixue was ahead of others. It was ingenious to employ foreigners as security guards, a strategy that could fully reflect the Chinese sense of superiority. With Li Lixue around, the Dynasty Club’s leading status amongst Jingcheng’s clubs was probably unstoppable.

Looking at the security on the side, Nie Zhenbang also slightly nodded and smiled, asking, “Good evening. Is Boss Li around?”

The security guard was momentarily taken aback. Inquiries about Boss Li and her whereabouts were definitely not something ordinary guards would know about. However, the quality of the Dynasty Club was demonstrated at this moment. The guard quickly recovered and responded, “Boss, Boss Li already instructed that you can use the internal elevator straightaway upon arrival. I haven’t seen her go out today as her private car still parked in the garage. As for whether she’s in or not, I’m not sure.’

Nie Zhenbang nodded, recognizing that his last inquiry was indeed an overstep. He then led Yang Anna into the club, directly moving over to the private elevator behind the lobby using the side passage. He swiped his black card through a slot on the elevator.

As soon as they entered the elevator, Anna moved behind Nie Zhenbang, completely hidden behind his imposing figure.

When the elevator doors opened, Nie Zhenbang and Yang Anna directly entered the penthouse. As the doors opened, a wave of fragrance wafted in, followed by a voice which said, “Zhenbang, you’re back? How …”

The voice belonged to Dong Wan, who froze in mid-sentence as Anna emerged from behind Nie Zhenbang. This time, Nie Zhenbang could be said to have launched a sudden attack. He hadn’t notified Dong Wan or Li Lixue in advance whatsoever.

Upon seeing Yang Anna, Dong Wan was momentarily embarrassed. Standing to the side, Nie Zhenbang was expecting a fierce face-off. However, to his surprise, Yang Anna’s behavior completely upended his expectations. She approached Dong Wan with a smile, grasping Dong Wan’s hand and said, “Sister Dong Wan, do you remember Anna?”
