Li Jing had already investigated this clubhouse before he came. The backer of this place was the Zhuang family.
Z Group was a family business mainly in the entertainment industry. After making a fortune in Thailand and dominating almost half of Thailandâs entertainment industry, it had slowly shifted its focus to China in the past few yearsâ¦
The current chairman of Z Group was Zhuang Tianxiong. He had a son and a daughter. The sonâs name was Zhuang Zhijie, and the daughter was Zhuang Meiqi!
Zhuang Tianxiong doted on his daughter very much. That was why she had developed such an arrogant personality.
Seeing her today, she was indeed as arrogant as the rumors said. In fact, she was even more exaggerated!
It seemed that if he wanted to take Jian Dan away today, he could only use his CEOâs name.
âMiss Zhuang, this is Mr. Chuâs wife. Can you let her leave with me on account of Mr. Chu?â
Li Jing was indeed someone who had been working for Chu Liyuan for so many years. He maintained his elegance and professionalism even under such circumstances.
âHmph! Mr. Li, donât be ungrateful. Iâm already doing you a huge favor by letting you take your woman away. Youâd better not push your luck.â
âIn our circle, who doesnât know that Chu Liyuan has never had a woman by his side, let alone married? Donât you think itâs too fake to use such an excuse?â
âI heard that Mr. Chu is on a business trip now. If he finds out that youâre throwing his name around like this, I wonder how heâll deal with you?â âMiss Zhuang, Iâm telling the truth!â
âDo you think Iâll believe you? Since thatâs the case, I donât mind telling you. 1 came back this time for a matchmaking session with Chu Liyuan. If all goes well, Iâll be the future Mrs. Chu, so youâd better not cross me. Otherwise, when I become Mrs. Chu, Iâll make you suffer.â
Matchmaking session Whatâs going on? Uncle is going for a matchmaking session? Thatâs absolutely impossible. Uncle is already married. How can he still go for a matchmaking session? This woman must be spouting nonsense.
âLi Jing⦠Youâre wrong to say that. How could you use Liyuanâs name to deceive Miss Zhuang when heâs on a business trip?â
Everyoneâs attention turned to the man who had just entered⦠especially what he had just said!
Sizhe? What did he mean by that?
Jian Dan, Li Jing, and Mengjiao could not figure out what he meant.
âHello, Miss Zhuang. Iâm Sizhe!â
âSo itâs the second young master of the Shang family, Shang Sizhe. Hello!â From Zhuang Meiqiâs attitude, it was obvious how powerful the Shang family was.
âMiss Zhuang, donât listen to Li Jingâs nonsense. How can Jian Dan be Liyuanâs wife?â
âI donât believe it at all! How can such a trick deceive me?â
âYes, yes, yes! Miss Zhuang, not only are you beautiful, but youâre also so smart. As expected of a young lady from a wealthy family!â
âMr. Shang, you flatter me!â Although her words were humble, her tone brimmed with pride.
âSince weâve cleared things up, Iâll take this woman away.â
âHold your horses, Miss Zhuang. 1 am taking this woman away,â Sizhe said as he stopped her.
âWhy? Have you taken a fancy to her?â
âNope!â
âThen are you deliberately trying to go against me?â
âOf course not.â
âSince thatâs the case, sheâs neither Chu Liyuanâs woman nor yours. Why do you want to take her away?â
âAlthough sheâs not Liyuanâs woman or mine, sheâs my brotherâs woman!â
As soon as he said that, Jian Danâs eyes widened by 180 times!
Even Li Jing and Mengjiao were shocked.
Whafs Sizhe up to? I havenât even met his brother. How did I become his woman?
âOh, is what you said really true?â
âOf course itâs true. Itâs hard to sayâshe might be my future sister-in-law. My brother dotes on her very much!â
âSince sheâs your brotherâs woman, why didnât your brother come? If itâs really as you saidâyour brother dotes on her very muchâwhy didnât he come personally?â
âBecause we havenât told my brother about this yet! If my brother finds out that my sister-in-law has suffered here, he will definitely tear this place apart today.â
âI felt that there was no need to go that far, so I didnât tell my brother. Let me bring my sister-in-law back.â
âMr. Shang, do you think Iâm a fool? Do you really think Iâll believe that the dignified Mr. Shang Simiao of the Shang family would make such a big fuss over a woman?â
âMiss Zhuang, you have no idea. But if you see how my brother treats my sister-in-law, you will understand that my brother dotes on her to the point of insanity.â
Sizhe said it so clearly and seriously that even Jian Dan herself believed that she was really his sister-in-law.
Although they did not know why Sizhe did this, the three of them knew that he did it to save Jian Dan, so they tacitly did not say anything.
Zhuang Meiqi sized up Sizhe with a scrutinizing gaze. After a long while, she smiled and said, âSince sheâs Mr Shang Simiaoâs favorite, how can I not do him the favor then? She can leave with you!â
âThank you, Miss Zhuang!â
Sizhe turned around and walked over to Jian Dan. âSister-in-law, letâs go!â
Just as they reached the door, Zhuang Meiqi spoke again, âItâs already very late. 1â11 send someone to send you and this lady back!â
âNo need, we can find our own way back!â
âHow can that do? Why do you want to reject my kind gesture?â
It was obvious that she did not fully believe it!
âThank you then, Miss Zhuang.â
Sizhe knew that if he refused, he would definitely be exposed, so he could only agree.
âLi Jing, you guys go back first! Sister-in-law and I will make a move firstâ¦â
Li Jing wanted to say something, but when he saw Zhuang Meiqi, he swallowed his words and left with Mengjiaoâ¦
Jian Danâaccompanied by Sizheâgot into the car Zhuang Meiqi had arranged for themâ¦
Just as the car was about to drive away, Zhuang Meiqi spoke again, âBy the way, Z Group has a ball the day after tomorrow. 1 hope that both you and your brother will attend with this beautiful ladyâ¦â Zhuang Meiqi looked at Jian Dan meaningfully.
It seemed that Miss Zhuang was prepared to fight her to the deathâ¦
âDonât worry, weâll be there on time! Weâll get going first!â
âI look forward to seeing all of you then.â
Although they had left that place, Xian Jin was still unable to relax because they were in Zhuang Meiqiâs carâ¦
