A luxury car cruised steadily through the traffic.
In the back seat, a poised and elegant noblewoman stared expressionlessly at the scenery slowly gliding past the car window.
In the front passenger seat, the assistant answered a phone call and then said softly, "Madam, Chief Zhou has arrived."
At that moment, the car's speed began to slow, jostling its way through the congested traffic.
The assistant's expression hinted at some anxiety, but the noblewoman in the back remained as calm as a breeze.

But only Yan Xue's assistant could see clearly that this marriage was nothing more than a union of pretenses.
If not for Xu Lang's arrest sullying the Yan family's name, the madam might not have gone to any lengths to help him.
The assistant, privy to certain secrets, couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
