Chapter 272: Chapter 272
Chu Lianxin was still cursing, feeling extremely wronged.
Su Li couldn’t be provoked! Ever since learning why Chu Hongyuan became successful, even the grandparents of the Chu Family no longer cursed Su Li as a "little monster" at home, and wanted a chance to bring her back to the Chu Family.
Chen Xiang had all sorts of thoughts in his mind but gently said to Chu Lianxin, "Lianxin, let it go. Don’t let Su Li ruin our mood for eating. By the way, I need to visit Mr. Tian’s private room, why don’t you come with me."
Chu Lianxin nodded obediently. She liked appearing in public with Chen Xiang, wanting everyone in Jiang City’s high society to know that Chen Xiang was her man, not Su Li’s.
"Mr. Tian, who is he?" Chu Lianxin asked curiously.
Chen Xiang’s expression turned cautious, and he solemnly said, "Tian Zhuang took advantage of the chaos in my company and secretly acquired most of the shares, giving him significant sway in my company."
Chu Lianxin didn’t quite understand, but she comforted him, "It’s okay, once we’re engaged, you’ll be considered a member of the Chu Family too. By then, I’ll have my dad lend a hand."
Chen Xiang smiled and nodded, but felt somewhat frustrated inside. The source of thɪs content is novel✦fire.net
If it weren’t for wanting the Chu Family’s help to save his own company, how could he possibly be interested in Chu Lianxin?
Ignoring a lady like Su Li, so cultured and well-mannered, and choosing a plain jane instead?
Chen Xiang felt it was truly tough and miserable for him.
But there’s no choice, in this world, the rich are the big shots.
Su Li walked towards the agreed-upon private room, stepping on the red-brown embossed carpet. As she pushed the door open, the river breeze blew in, easing the night’s heat.
The middle-aged, beer-bellied Tian Zhuang sat by the window, withdrawn into himself, muttering continuously, "I didn’t offend Mr. Qi... How would I dare offend Seventh Master Feng?"
Earlier, Seventh Master Feng indeed showed up.
How could he possibly let Seventh Master Feng invite him for a meal!
Feng Huaijin took a phone call outside, leaving him to reflect on his actions.
Tian Zhuang was on the verge of tears, unable to figure out how he had offended Seventh Master Feng through all his reflection.
Even if he were fearless, he wouldn’t dare.
Then, the beautiful girl in a pale purple water-patterned dress walked in, and at a glance, Tian Zhuang realized how he had offended Feng Huaijin.
It wasn’t Feng Huaijin he offended, but Feng Qi’s woman, damn it!
Tian Zhuang looked at Su Li in disbelief, holding back his urge to bawl and greeted in a choked voice, "Miss Su Li."
Ugh, isn’t she the unfortunate girl he tricked a while ago?
Su Li curiously scanned the private room, "Where’s Feng Huaijin?"
There’s indeed a connection between them...
Tian Zhuang felt even more aggrieved, slouching his shoulders, "Mr. Feng went outside to take a call."
Su Li sat in her seat, looking at Tian Zhuang with eyes full of sympathy.
Indeed, no one in Jiang City dares to provoke Seventh Master Feng...
Even the Great Demon King from Yanjing, when he comes to Jiang City, everyone has to listen to him.
Tian Zhuang sniffled, wiped away his sad tears, and voluntarily poured wine for Su Li.
A knock on the door sounded, and Su Li, thinking it was Feng Huaijin, quickly let the person outside come in.
The couple holding wine glasses appeared bewildered at the scene.
Chu Lianxin nearly spilled her wine in shock and exclaimed, "Su Li? What are you doing here?"
"Are you dining here with Mr. Tian?"
Chu Lianxin’s gaze lingered between Su Li and Tian Zhuang, gradually turning disdainful.
Has Su Li fallen from grace?
Indeed, she spent all her money on a house, but it’s said her house hasn’t been rented out yet, and she has no income...
An icy male voice came from the doorway: "Look at her like that again, and I’ll blind your eyes!"
