Xu Wan met a man from her industry at a matchmaking party. Two days later, they got their marriage certificate.
She thought she had married an unremarkable corporate legal counsel.
Afte...
As soon as the call connected, Su Ziyu's complaining voice came through, "Brother, you finally answered! If you hadn't, Miss An would have been calling me nonstop!"
This statement alone revealed his intention to make the call.
"If Miss An sent you to plead for her, then there's nothing more to say. If you really think you're a saint, why don't you marry her and see if the Su family can save her from this predicament?"
Jiang Tingzhou didn't ask for the reason at all, and his attitude was very firm.
"Tsk, I don't want to be so pessimistic!" Su Ziyu said in a low voice, "To be honest, An Yunya is in my office right now. She came over crying her eyes out and she's lost a lot of weight. I'm just curious, what happened to drive such a proud young lady to this state?"
Jiang Tingzhou briefly explained the relationship between Xu Pingrong and the An family, saying, "They are now using this matter to pressure Xu Wan into divorcing me, or they will sue Xu Wan's mother."
"Damn, this is just awful!" Su Ziyu was silent for a while before saying, "But I understand why An Yunya is willing to cooperate. She's a proud and arrogant person. Back when my brother was pursuing her, she said that only the best man in Beicheng was worthy of her. She told my brother to take a piss and look at himself in the mirror. She's obviously determined to hang herself on your tree."
“What she thinks is none of my business, but you can pass on my message to her: if she doesn’t want further losses, she should withdraw the lawsuit and apologize to Wanwan. Otherwise, if Wanwan or my mother-in-law suffers even the slightest harm, I will still be in the An family’s shoes,” Jiang Tingzhou said.
"Wow, you expect me to say something so cool? I probably couldn't capture that kind of aura." Su Ziyu cleared her throat. "But I'll try my best to recreate it!"
Jiang Tingzhou soon received another call from his father, Jiang Detian, and the content was exactly what he had expected.
I advised him not to go too far.
However, it was precisely because Jiang Detian and An Zheng had a good relationship that Jiang Tingzhou knew all about the An family's financial investments, which enabled him to strike so precisely.
In just one night, Anjia suffered heavy losses in the overseas market.
With the Chinese stock market about to open, another round of attacks is imminent.

After going downstairs, Xu Wan immediately got to work.
Gao Han was going to take her to the court to file a case that afternoon, so some things needed to be done in the morning.
Xu Wan was busy until after 11 o'clock. She glanced at the empty coffee in her cup, picked it up, and walked towards the tea room.
She washed the mug, filled a glass with water, and turned to go back to her office when a middle-aged man walked up to her and blocked her way.
The man was slightly overweight, with fair skin, slightly curly hair, and squinty eyes. Just by standing there, he gave off an impression of being good-tempered and easy to talk to.
"Excuse me, are you Xu Wan?"
The man spoke to Xu Wan.
Perhaps because this person was so pleasing to the eye, Xu Wan had no guard up against him and said with a smile, "Yes, may I ask who you are...?"
“My name is Jiang De’an, and I am Jiang Tingzhou’s uncle. I have no ill intentions in coming to see you; I just want to see what you look like.”
When Jiang De'an introduced himself, he still had a friendly smile on his face.
"You're Tingzhou's uncle?" Xu Wan couldn't hide her surprise. She looked at Jiang De'an's face more closely and couldn't help but say, "You two don't look alike at all?"
Jiang De'an wasn't angry. He smiled and admitted, "Yes, everyone in the Jiang family is good-looking, except for me, who has a genetic mutation."
"No, no, you seem very approachable." Xu Wan was eager to get back to work, so she said simply, "If you don't have anything else, I have work to do..."
"I'm sorry." Jiang De'an made room at the door and said with a smile, "I was worried about Xiao Zhou before, since he was so old and didn't have a girlfriend. Now that he has found such an excellent wife as you, I am really happy for him."
"It is my good fortune to be able to marry Tingzhou."
Xu Wan glanced at her watch and quickly said goodbye to Jiang De'an.
At lunchtime, Ning Hang came downstairs as promised to pick Xu up at night.
Xu Wan, carrying a thermos lunchbox, returned to Jiang Tingzhou's office.
By this time, the man had changed his clothes and combed his hair again, looking completely different from how he did in the morning.
Jiang Tingzhou took the insulated lunchbox from her and had just placed it on the dining table when he heard the woman behind him say, "I saw your uncle this morning."
