Chapter 314 Dare to touch my people? You're asking for death!

The atmosphere in the suite's lobby was so heavy it was almost palpable.

"You little brat!"

Grandma Huo slammed her cane heavily on the ground with a dull thud.

She stared at her "bent" grandson, her chest heaving with anger.

"Cut ties with that boy immediately! Give him some money and tell him to get lost!"

"Our Huo family has had only one son for seven generations, and you're the only one we've produced? You actually went and liked men!"

Huo Shenyuan raised his eyelids, his handsome face expressionless.

"Grandma, I'm not interested in women."

"you!"

Grandma Huo's blood pressure spiked from his outrageous remark.

"You're talking nonsense! Weren't you always chasing after that little girl from the Sheng family?"

Huo Shenyuan twitched the corner of his mouth.

"Isn't that because you look down on her? You even said she can't speak and is a little mute."

"I look down on her?" Grandma Huo's voice rose, her eyes widening. "Do you think Grandma is such a short-sighted person? When have I ever looked down on her?"

"That girl is so beautiful, gentle and generous, and she's the third young lady of the Sheng family. She's more than a match for our Huo family!"

The more she talked about it, the better she felt about the marriage, and her attitude completely changed.

"You go to the Sheng family tomorrow—no, today! You go today and bring that girl back to me for a meal!"

Huo Shenyuan's eyes flickered, a hint of disappointment flashing across them.

“Grandma, she went on a trip.” He lowered his head, his voice also softening. “Besides, she doesn’t like me.”

Upon hearing this, Grandma Huo's anger flared up again.

"Aren't you the best at chasing girls? Where's your skill? Go chase her! Win her back!"

Huo Shenyuan remained silent for a moment, then tentatively spoke again.

"Why don't you try getting to know Xiao Cheng? Who knows, you might like him too."

"Keep dreaming!"

Grandma Huo finally couldn't hold back any longer and swung her cane at him.

"Slap! Slap!"

Neither of the blows was heavy; it was purely to vent my anger.

"You want me to accept a man as my Huo family's granddaughter-in-law? Don't even think about it!"

She turned her head angrily and gave a firm order to the butler beside her.

"Old Li, prepare generous gifts! I'll personally go to the Sheng family to propose marriage in a couple of days!"

Huo Shenyuan stood up, his face clearly showing his resistance.

"Grandma, you can't be so unreasonable."

"Your marriage is not up to you!" Grandma Huo said harshly. "Get home tonight!"

After saying that, she leaned on her cane and stormed off angrily.

The hall fell silent instantly.

Huo Shenyuan slowly curled his lips into a smile, his handsome face no longer showing any sign of frustration, but full of triumphant joy.

Qingning cautiously pushed open the door and peeked out her little head.

She came out and saw him leaning against the sofa, looking gloomy and miserable. She asked him softly.

"What's wrong? Is your grandma angry?"

Huo Shenyuan looked up upon hearing the sound, let out a heavy sigh, and looked utterly dejected.

"I was kicked out of my home."

He walked up to her, his tall figure looming over her.

“I may be living here for a long time in the future.”

Qingning looked up, somewhat worried, "How could this happen?"

"She's pressuring me to get married, but I don't agree." Huo Shenyuan was very downcast.

She asked again.

"Don't you have someone you like? It's only natural for the older generation to want to see you settle down and start a family."

"Yes." Huo Shenyuan's gaze suddenly became focused and affectionate, locking onto her firmly.

He spoke clearly, word by word.

"I only like the third young lady of the Sheng family, Qingning."

"But she left."

The man's Adam's apple bobbed, his voice carrying a stubborn firmness.

"In this life, I will marry no one but her."

"My wife can only be her."

Qingning's eyes widened, her heart suddenly pounding out of control, pounding wildly in her chest.

She knew he had feelings for her, but she never expected them to be so deep.

A subtle sense of guilt crept into her heart; she shouldn't have lied to him.

He suddenly smiled and ruffled her hair.

"Go wash up quickly, I'll go downstairs with you for breakfast."

"Um."

She nodded, turned around and took two steps, then stopped and turned back to ask.

"Young Master Huo, if one day you find out you've been deceived by someone, will you be angry?"

He raised an eyebrow slightly, thought for a moment, and asked.

"Did that person ever hurt me?"

Qingning thought about it carefully and then shook her head.

"Then I won't be angry."

He looked at her with an extremely serious expression.

"I will forgive her."

The weight lifted from Qingning's heart, and she finally breathed a sigh of relief, revealing a bright smile.

"I'm going to wash my face."

As Huo Shenyuan watched her retreating figure, the enchanting scene from last night resurfaced in his mind. He felt a pang of regret, realizing that he had only made love to her once last night and didn't know if she could conceive.

He now desperately wants a child with her.

...

Night was falling.

Shi Li, with Sheng Weiwei by her side, pushed open a heavy door.

With Chen Shu, that idiot, completely out of the picture, Shi Li began to look at Sheng Weiwei with new respect, realizing that she was determined to cultivate her into her right-hand woman.

Tonight is the first hurdle.

The Starry Sky Private Room at Vanstar is brightly lit, yet not dazzling.

There were already four men in the private room, all dressed in suits and ties, their watches reflecting a cold gleam under the lights, clearly not ordinary people.

"Sorry everyone, we're late."

Shi Li smiled politely and pushed Sheng Weiwei forward.

"Today I've brought a beautiful lady with me to learn from you all."

"Our department's newly appointed deputy director, Sheng Weiwei."

As soon as he finished speaking, a man stood up abruptly. It was none other than Mr. Cheng, the general manager of UR Financial.

His eyes were filled with undisguised surprise as he stared intently at Sheng Weiwei.

The woman before me was indeed exceptionally beautiful.

The key point is that this is someone that President Bai cherishes dearly.

Just a few days ago, President Bai personally ordered him to wipe out the Gu family, all because of this Miss Sheng.

At this moment, Li probably still doesn't know Sheng Weiwei's true identity, yet he dares to bring her into this kind of situation to flaunt it.

What an idiot.

Seeing that President Cheng had stood up, the other three men dared not remain seated and also stood up.

Shi Li's smile deepened. "President Cheng, please have a seat."

She turned her head and began to introduce Sheng Weiwei.

"This is Mr. Cheng from UR Financial, and these two are Mr. Du from Wanfeng Financial and Mr. Yan from Dingshun Financial."

"They are all big names in the investment circle, and they also have projects in cooperation with our Sheng family."

"Hello." Sheng Weiwei nodded politely, her attitude neither humble nor arrogant.

Shi Li then pointed to a handsome man next to her, "This is General Manager Jin from Sheng's Investment Department. You probably haven't seen him before."

Sheng Weiwei nodded to him.

A woman's intuition is very accurate; she could tell at a glance that the relationship between President Jin and Shi Li was more than just that of colleagues.

After Mr. Cheng sat down, he picked up his wine glass and spoke meaningfully.

"If we're talking about a god in the financial world, then it has to be President Bai."

"I've already invited President Bai, but unfortunately he has a business dinner tonight and can't make it." Cheng Feng smiled, his tone tinged with regret.

“I’ve heard that President Bai’s fiancée is the eldest daughter of the Tong family in Country F. They’re a perfect match, it’s so enviable,” Shi Li continued with a smile.

"Whether we're a good match or not, we'll only know when the time comes," Cheng Feng added, glancing at Sheng Weiwei almost imperceptibly.

Shi Li didn't respond to that, and instead raised her glass.

"Come on, let's have a drink first, to thank all the big shots for their support of Sheng's Group."

After everyone raised their glasses and clinked them together, Shi Li began to talk to them about a new intelligent flight project that the Sheng family had invested in.

The Sheng family is the lead investor, and the other three are co-investors, making it a very large investment.

After a few drinks, a light blush rose on Sheng Weiwei's cheeks.

She made an excuse to leave the private room to get some fresh air.

At the end of the corridor, a woman was walking gracefully towards them.

She wore a blue cheongsam that accentuated her shapely figure, and her high heels made every step exude grace and elegance. Her aura instantly overshadowed everything around her.

It's Tong Hua.

Sheng Weiwei's heart skipped a beat, and she instinctively wanted to turn around and avoid it.

"Miss Sheng, may we talk?"

A cool, clear voice called out to her from behind.

Sheng Weiwei stopped, turned around, and her attitude was somewhat indifferent.

"Miss Tong, we are not acquainted."

Tong Hua approached, a faint smile playing on her lips.

“You and I are not familiar with each other, but you and A-Yu are not strangers.”

Her eyebrows curved, but the smile didn't reach her eyes; instead, it carried a sharp killing intent that chilled one to the bone.

In the end, Sheng Weiwei followed Tong Hua to the rooftop garden outside.

The two stood under the long corridor, the night breeze slightly cool.

Tong Hua took out a pack of slender women's cigarettes from her elegant handbag, lit one for herself, and then handed the pack to Sheng Weiwei.

"Want one?"

"Thank you, but I can't." Sheng Weiwei shook her head.

She was somewhat surprised; she hadn't expected that this stunningly beautiful woman, who appeared so dignified, would actually smoke.

Amidst the swirling smoke, the dignity was diluted, and a touch of wildness was added.

Bai Yu must really like a woman like that, right? Otherwise, she wouldn't have become his ideal woman.

Tong Hua took a deep breath, slowly exhaled a white smoke ring, and then spoke slowly and deliberately.

“Miss Sheng, regardless of your previous relationship with A Yu, from now on, I hope you can leave him.”

"Because he's not someone you can even dream of. When the Sheng family and the Tong family are put side by side, he knows which one to choose."

Upon hearing these words, Sheng Weiwei suddenly smiled.

She thought it was something serious, but it turned out they had come to declare their sovereignty.

"Miss Tong, is it that you lack confidence in Bai Yu, or in yourself?"

Tong Hua looked at her, raised an eyebrow, and said, "I've always preferred to be polite first and then resort to force."

“Although I haven’t seen A-Yu for a long time, I know him better than you do. We’ve been through life and death together. He saved my life, and I’ve helped him. We have a tacit understanding that no one else can replace.”

Tong Hua's tone was sharp and piercing, every word she uttered was sharp.

“Then I am truly inferior to Miss Tong.” Sheng Weiwei retorted calmly, “We don’t have a tacit understanding, we only have a tacit understanding in our bodies.”

The battlefield without gunfire has already been ignited.

Tong Hua's face instantly turned extremely ugly.

"Sheng Weiwei, Ayu is just playing around with you. Do you really think he'll marry you?" Tong Hua's voice rose a few decibels, and her clenched fists betrayed her anger.

“I was just playing around with him, Miss Tong, you don’t need to take it so seriously.”

Sheng Weiwei paused, then added another blow.

"From now on, he belongs completely to you. I don't want this man anymore."

Excuse me.

After saying that, she turned and left, not wanting to say another word.

Suddenly, a hand reached out from behind and grabbed her shoulder.

The force was immense; with a sudden, powerful jerk, Sheng Weiwei was flung away.

It's clear that Tong Hua has practiced.

Sheng Weiwei fell heavily to the ground, her right elbow scraping against the hard floor tiles, burning with pain.

She took a deep breath, pushed herself up slowly, and stared coldly at the other person with her beautiful eyes.

Should we take action?

"Miss Tong, are you resorting to violence because you can't win an argument?"

Tong Hua stubbed out her cigarette on a pillar and looked at her with disdain.

“I don’t like people being arrogant in front of me. You bit Bai Yu last night, and today I’m just getting some interest back for him.”

Sheng Weiwei sneered inwardly.

This man, he even tells others about this kind of thing? Or has he shown his body to others?

That's really something.

"That depends on whether you have the ability."

Sheng Weiwei slowly removed the silk scarf from her neck, then took off her blazer and tossed it aside.

A pair of cold eyes were fixed on the woman in front of him.

Tong Hua smirked, "You're no match for me. I can take on five of you at once."

Before she finished speaking, she suddenly lunged forward and threw a punch, which landed heavily on Sheng Weiwei's left shoulder.

I can't hit that face, lest A-Yu see it and feel heartbroken.

Immediately afterwards, she grabbed Sheng Weiwei's arm and executed a clean over-the-shoulder throw.

A muffled "bang" was heard.

Sheng Weiwei felt like her back was about to break.

This woman is indeed a trained fighter.

But is Sheng Weiwei the kind of person who lets others bully her?

Despite the excruciating pain, Sheng Weiwei scrambled to her feet and rushed towards her without a second thought. In an instant, the two were locked in a tight embrace.

Tong Hua is skilled in fighting, but she was restricted by this shameless fighting style and had no room to maneuver.

Sheng Weiwei hugged her, and together they crashed into the flower bushes beside them, rolling around in the thorny roses.

The sharp rose thorns stung Tong Hua's arms and thighs, causing a burning pain.

Sheng Weiwei, however, acted as if she didn't care about her life, seizing every opportunity to slap her across the face.

Suddenly, a sharp pain shot through her abdomen, and she was kicked away, rolling to the side.

Tong Hua crawled out of the flower bushes, her eyes filled with malice, and rushed up to her, unleashing a barrage of punches and kicks, each one aimed to kill.

Sheng Weiwei curled up in pain, but desperately protected her face...

Despite the pain, she grabbed a thick rose branch with one hand, snapped it off, and lashed it at Tong Hua.

The thorny flower branches became her weapons, and Tong Hua was forced to retreat step by step...

In the VIP box, decadent music flowed.

Several pot-bellied men were holding wine glasses and smiling broadly as they surrounded the man in the center of the sofa.

"Mr. Bai, thank you for choosing this project. It's absolutely the game-changer this year! I'll drink to that first!"

Bai Yu slumped lazily in the sofa, his long legs crossed, swirling the whiskey glass in his hand, the amber liquid rippling in circles.

He didn't speak, but casually raised his chin at the person, his posture noble and distant.

The door to the private room was suddenly pushed open.

Yang Fan strode in, beads of sweat glistening on his forehead. He walked straight to Bai Yu, bent down, and lowered his voice.

"Mr. Bai, we received a message from Miss Tong. She has been assaulted."

Bai Yu placed the wine cup on the table.

The movement wasn't forceful, but it sent a shiver down the spines of everyone in the private room.

Bai Yu raised his eyes, his gaze dark and filled with anger.

"Anyone who dares to hit me."

He spoke slowly and deliberately, his tone eerily calm.

"court death."
