[Huh? Why is my name here?] Maggie Jiang's heart skipped a beat. The spoon in her hand clinked as it fell into her cup. In her mind, the guest message wall was usually a place where young couples vented their emotions, whether from the sweetness of love or the bitterness of quarrels. [It's probably just a coincidence, a case of the same name.] Curious, she put down her cup and quickly walked over to the message wall.
A bold, glaring black message caught her eye: "Maggie Jiang is a total heartbreaker, a shameless pervert! She clearly doesn't like him, but still flirts with other people! She must be after his abs and his body! Hmph, I just want to make her mad!"
Maggie Jiang froze for a second, then couldn't help but smirk, her lips curling uncontrollably. She crossed her arms, studying the message with amusement, completely unaware that she was the one being roasted: "It must be a case of someone with the same name. Wow, this is even more dramatic than a TV show, it's like public execution! This Maggie Jiang is going to be in big trouble, clearly pissing off some jealous type. Tsk tsk, she's gonna have a rough time later. But gotta admit, this girl's taste is kinda like mine… abs really are irresistible!"
Meanwhile, in the back garden of the Jiang family villa, a gentle breeze stirred the air, and vibrant flowers swayed in the wind. Chase Jiang was lazily leaning against a rattan chair, holding a fashion magazine in his hands, though his thoughts were clearly elsewhere. His eyebrows furrowed as he mumbled softly, his voice full of complaint: "This Maggie Jiang... it's almost dark, why isn't she back yet? Where the hell is she fooling around?"
Today, Chase Jiang had made an extra effort to dress up. He had traded in his usual loose T-shirt for a fitted suit that accentuated his tall, toned frame, with his abs subtly visible—like a blooming rose. Wanting to impress Maggie Jiang, he had gotten up early to carefully pick out his clothes and prepare himself.
[I dressed up so carefully, yet she ignores me like I'm nothing! How dare she!] The more Chase Jiang thought about it, the angrier he became. His teeth clenched as he bit down on his lower lip. He had planned to casually stroll in front of Maggie Jiang to grab her attention, but she had locked herself in her room and didn't come out all morning. By midday, feeling bored, he went out to grab a cup of coffee. But when he returned, Maggie Jiang was nowhere to be found. He asked everyone in the villa, but no one knew where she had gone.
[Hmph, just wait till you come back. I'll make you pay!] Chase Jiang thought to himself, when suddenly the deafening roar of an engine pierced the air. A flashy sports car sped into the villa driveway, kicking up a cloud of dust. It was Maggie Jiang's car. Chase Jiang immediately perked up. With a sharp motion, he tossed the magazine onto the table and quickly walked toward the parking lot.
In the parking lot, as Maggie Jiang parked her car and opened the door, a fresh fragrance of perfume wafted toward Chase Jiang. He smiled and walked over confidently. "What a coincidence, Miss Jiang, just got back?"
But the moment he spoke, his nose twitched slightly. [What's this scent? Did she go on a date with another man?!] His eyes instantly turned icy, his heart a turbulent mix of anger and bitterness.
Maggie Jiang glanced at him briefly and forced a polite smile. "Yeah, just got back. Hello, Mr. Jiang." Without waiting for a response, she sidestepped him and headed straight inside.
[She didn't even look at me properly! At least compliment how handsome I look!] Chase Jiang was fuming, his fists clenched tightly. Over the past few days, Maggie Jiang had been endlessly praising Ethan Su in her heart, while being dismissive of him. This made him both jealous and frustrated. [In terms of body and looks, what does Ethan Su have over me? I've never had a woman ignore me before!]
At that moment, Maggie Jiang's voice unexpectedly rang out in his mind: [Damn it, what bad luck! Just got home and this troublemaker's here, ruining my mood! What's with the fake smile? I know he's up to something again. Why hasn't he left for Beijing yet? It feels like I'm going to die from the boredom!]
Chase Jiang stood frozen, as if struck by lightning. His face alternated between pale and red. [I've waited all day, and this is the best I get?] He watched helplessly as Maggie Jiang entered the living room, casually closing the door behind her.
Fifteen minutes later, Chase Jiang stormed into his room, trembling with rage. He locked the door, threw himself onto the bed, and buried his face in a pillow before finally exploding: "Aaahhh! Maggie Jiang! I'm not done with you!! How... how dare you?! Am I really that unattractive to you? Are you even a woman?! I refuse to accept this..." Overwhelmed by bitterness, tears burst forth like a flood, soaking the pillow as he drowned in crushing defeat.
