After getting into her car, | sighed. "You have the kind of life envied by many girls."
Shannon looked atand asked with a smile, "Does i t make people envious that | don't have to work, have a
car, a house, savings, and | can be as willful as | want because there'll always be someone there to bear the
consequences for me?"
I laughed. "Please remove the word 'does’, changing the question to an affirmative statement.”
Shannon sighed softly. "Humans will never be satisfied. We have something that others can only dream of yet
not cherish. We go for things that others don't cherish instead. For example, | envy you for not being as simple
as you say you are and for not coming from a basic background as you claim to be. It makes you appear
intensely mysterious and unattainable, perhaps even causing others to want to hold you in high regard. But
these things mean nothing to you, right?"
| froze and looked at her in surprise.
She might seem young but she had much more discerning eyes than most people. Her words were certainly

Everyone was seeking after things that were not cherished by other people. It was hard to tell whether this was
ridiculous or lamentable.
Shannon drove to the entrance of a tea house, unbuckled her seat belt, and said with a smile, "Let's hurry. | can't
wait to eat those delicious desserts."
| laughed. "Aren't you afraid of getting fat?"
Shannon's mouth twitched. "Eat first and then worry later."
The place was decorated in a very girly manner. It seemed to be specially designed to cater to women.
After taking our seats and making our orders, Shannon asked, "What kind of task did Jordan assign you?"
| pursed my lips. "He wantsto bid for a project."
"Huh?" Shannon was astonished. "Isn't that a project director's job?"
| sighed helplessly. "I don't know either."
| did not know how to explain to Shannon about my relationship with Theo, so | simply skipped the topic.
Shannon asked with a grave expression, "That's why you plan to inquire about those corporate bosses from
Dazaray in order to bid for the project?"
I nodded.
"I think it's strange too. Fredericks Corporations aren't too involved in real estate and the subsequent
development of the industry. | didn't see anything relevant even when | was going through the documents for
him recently.
"That means he didn’t intend to participate at first, but now, he's suddenly saying that he wants to bid for it. H e
even assignedto it. | have no idea what's the real reason behind why he wants to bid for it."
Shannon asked, "When does the bidding start?”
"Tonight."
"Holy shit!" Shannon put on a speechless look. "So, you're going to spend this afternoon drafting out the bid

| took a deep breath and felt a little mentally drained." | don't know where to start. That's why I'm having a
massive headache right now."
Shannon stroked her chin. "Tellthe details. | might be able to help.”
| nodded. "Okay."
Later, | told her about the details of the project. After getting a rough idea about it, Shannon asked, "Where will
the bidding event be held tonight?”
"Red Sky Hotel."
Shannon nodded and said with a smile, "I know the Mr. Isaac you spoke about. I'll get someone to ask around
later and see if | can find out what their bidding plan is."
| nodded. "Thank you.”
After saying that, two people walked into the tea house -two people | was familiar with.
